"Do you guys see what's up?! Do you guys see what's up?!", said Jolteon as he walked into the room.
"Uh.....the sky?", said Vaporeon.
"Jolteon! My man! Dude, those fighting skills were so unreal!", said Raichu.
"Aye, thanks man! I knew I rocked that fight!", said Jolteon.
"And to think she had the ability to send your own attacks back at you! How come she stopped though?", Sylveon asked.
"Not sure......maybe she just got tired out?", said Umbreon.
"That's never happened before! Like ever!", said Sylveon.
"Well, I guess we all have our limits.", said Umbreon.
"Yeah, guess so.", said Sylveon.
"So who's up next?", said Boltund.
"Our next matchup! It's Sylveon vs Glaceon!", said Machamp.
"Alright then! Me and you Sylvie! You ready for this?", said Glaceon.
"You betcha! Just go easy on me, ok?", said Sylveon.
"Sorry, Sylvie! There's no going easy in this game.", said Glaceon.
"Exactly! That's not the way of the Sith!", said Vaporeon.
"Agreed.", said Umbreon.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
"The battle between Sylveon and Glaceon will begin when I say so and will end when either opponent is either knocked out or fainted.", said Emboar.
Sylveon twirled her ribbons as Glaceon stood in position, ready to attack as soon as he said go.
"3..........2.........1..........GO!", said Emboar.
Sylveon ran over towards Glaceon, but Glaceon was quicker and fired an ice beam at Sylveon.
The ice beam hit Sylveon's front legs, preventing her from moving. Glaceon then ran over to her, preparing to use ice fang.
Without many other options, Sylveon used her ribbons to grab Glaceon before she could hit her.
Glaceon started to glow brightly as a barrage of icicles materialized in front of her.
"Hey, she did that thing again! When we were fighting the Blazibots!", Vaporeon pointed out.
"Oh no you don't!", said Sylveon as the icicles grew closer to her.
"Hold on, w-what the hell is happening?!", said Leafeon.
"It's that thing with her ribbons again!", Umbreon exclaimed.
Sylveon started to break the incoming icicles with her ribbons at a crazy speed.
"What are you talking about, Umbreon?", said Vaporeon.
"She did that when we were fighting the Blazibots!", said Umbreon.
"How?", said Vaporeon.
"By parrying the gunshots.", said Umbreon.
After a bit of struggle, Sylveon managed to break free, and then she jumped up in the air and used Fairy Wind.
Glaceon was struck by the wind, trying to stay in balance whilst in the gusts.
Sylveon then reached out her ribbons and grabbed at Glaceon. She then started to descend down towards Glaceon, causing Glaceon to react by firing a huge wall of ice like Shoto Todoroki.
"Hey, it's that thing again!", said Leafeon.
"Oh she's good....", said Vaporeon.
The ice wall shot out whilst Sylveon's ribbons were still grabbing Glaceon. Glaceon struggled to get them off as she heard the ice begin to break.
"What's happening now? What is Sylveon doing?", said Jolteon.
All of a sudden, Sylveon broke through the ice wall and lunged at Glaceon. Before she could touch her though, Glaceon used ice punch, sending Sylveon flying back through the ice wall, and causing her ribbons to finally let go of her.
"Oh, nice move.", said Jolteon.
"Gah..............damn........", Sylveon muttered as she struggled to get back up.
Glaceon jumped through the giant hole in the ice wall and used ice beam on Sylveon.
Sylveon jumped out of the way whilst still a bit tired out from that whole thing.
Glaceon's ice beam perused her as Sylveon ran from it.
"Come on Sylveon........", Umbreon muttered.
Sylveon took a sharp turn towards Glaceon and fired Fairy Wind again as the ice beam nicked her tail and back leg.
Sylveon broke through the ice immediately while still firing Fairy Wind. Glaceon fired up her frozen wall with icicles sticking out from it. The Fairy Wind seized, and at the same time, Sylveon fired her ribbons towards the wall and used them to break through the wall.
Glaceon strengthened her wall as best as she could, making Sylveon struggle to break through them.
Suddenly, Sylveon came up with an idea. Using her ribbons, she pulled herself up above the icicles and jumped upwards.
Glaceon used ice beam whilst Sylveon was midair, and Sylveon blocked it with her ribbons. She then descended quickly down on Glaceon from using Giga Impact.
Sylveon struck Glaceon, creating a large explosion.
As soon as the smoke cleared, Glaceon was revealed to have fainted behind the wall. Sylveon was standing on top of the wall, her ribbons retracting.
"Glaceon is unable to battle! Sylveon wins! Which means Sylveon will be moving on to the quarter finals!", said Emboar.
"Woo-hoo!", Sylveon cheered as the crowd cheered along.
"Aw hell yeah! Way to go, babe!", said Boltund.
Umbreon smiled.
"Wow........that was crazy......the amount of ice walls in that match was insane! I never even knew Glacy could do so much!", said Leafeon.
"That Giga Impact was also crazy too! Smart move by Sylveon.", said Jolteon.
"So who's next?", said Vaporeon.
"I think it's you, dude.", said Umbreon.
"Our next and final matchup in the round of 16! It's Vaporeon vs Drapion!!!", said Machamp.
"Oh gosh.......", said Vaporeon.
"Hey, if I can beat Tropius, then I'm sure you can beat Drapion, dude.", said Raichu.
"But what about that Golden form thing that he has?", said Vaporeon.
"Just try your hardest! You'll be fine.", said Jolteon, giving him a light shove.
"Ok then........", said Vaporeon.
"Yeah! Go for it Vapy! You got this!", said Leafeon.
"Heh...thanks Leafeon...", said Vaporeon.
He then turned around and walked out of the room.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
"The battle between Vaporeon and Drapion will begin when I say so and will end when either opponent is either knocked out or fainted.", said Emboar.
"I still can't believe they put me against a weird meme. Why don't you just give up, foul fish?", said Drapion.
"No, that's not the way of the Sith. And by the way, that meme is dead. Typhosion's the victim now.", said Vaporeon.
"Vaporeon's fighting! Someone play Duel of Fates!", said Jolteon.
"3.......2......1.......GO!!!!", said Emboar.
Vaporeon fired a water gun at Drapion, who began to charge towards him. Drapion dodged the attack and fired a sludge bomb at Vaporeon.
Vaporeon countered it with a water pulse attack, but once the mist cleared, Drapion slammed his claw down onto Vaporeon before throwing him aside.
"Oh no, Vaporeon!", Jolteon exclaimed.
Vaporeon swiftly got up as Drapion fired more sludge bombs. Using hydro pump, Vaporeon destroyed the sludge bombs coming towards him as Drapion charged towards him again.
Vaporeon fired a second hydro pump and Drapion, sending him flying backwards.
Vaporeon followed this up with a quick attack, and once he got close to Drapion, Drapion swung his claw at him.
Before he could hit Vaporeon though, Vaporeon quickly shifted to a water state, causing him to splash onto the ground, barely missing Drapion's swing.
Vaporeon, now in his water state, sloshed around Drapion, hitting him at blind spots with his tail.
Drapion struggled to find and hit him, and as he kept getting hit, his anger started to boil as his body color started to change.
All of a sudden, Vaporeon jumped out from a puddle and descended down on Drapion while using tail whip. He almost hit him, until Drapion unexpectedly grabbed him by the tail and transitioned into his Golden Form.
"Oh no.......this doesn't look good...", said Umbreon.
"No, Vaporeon!", Leafeon cried out.
Drapion slammed Vaporeon down onto the ground and then beat him with his claws about 10 times before throwing him across the field.
"Augh............damn.......", Vaporeon muttered.
Drapion then charged up a large beam as Vaporeon struggled to stand back up. Drapion fired the golden hyper beam from out of his mouth, and with little time to react, Vaporeon turned into water again and slithered below the beam towards Drapion.
Vaporeon slithered behind Drapion and used Hydro Pump, sending him flying backwards and causing him to get hit by his own beam a bit.
Drapion used sludge bomb, and Vaporeon kept using hydro pump to blast through all of Drapion's attacks.
Vaporeon then used swift. The stars flew out and towards Drapion. Drapion blocked the stars with his arm as he charged and tackled Vaporeon again.
He kept hitting Vaporeon, and it seemed like the fight was about to end, until a sudden huge wave of light emerged from Vaporeon's body. Drapion was flung back as Vaporeon let out a powerful surf attack.
When Drapion was far enough away, Vaporeon released a beam so powerful that it shook the entire field. He fired a hydro pump that had a few parts of flamethrower and thunderbolt in it. The beam hit Drapion, causing a huge explosion.
The smoke cleared as the water lowered, and Drapion's golden form disappeared as he floated down to the ground.
"Drapion is unable to battle! Vaporeon wins! Which means Vaporeon will be moving on to the quarter finals!", said Emboar.
"Alright! Way to go, Vapor!", said Jolteon.
"I knew he had it in him! Man's goated.", said Raichu.
As Umbreon watched over at everyone celebrating at Vaporeon's victory, he couldn't help but look over at Boltund, who seemed to have a look of anguish on his face.
"Hey Boltund, you ok?", said Umbreon curiously.
"Yes.......everything is ok....", said Boltund, almost sounding very annoyed.
"You seem a bit upset.", said Umbreon.
"I'm fine. Trust me.", said Boltund.
Pretty soon, Vaporeon entered the room again.
"Hey, Vapy! Now that's what I'm talking about!", said Leafeon.
"Way to go, Vaporeon! That was an intense match!", said Jolteon.
"Thanks guys! So it seems that most of us are now in the quarter finals! Should be fun!", said Vaporeon.
"Hope so. I wonder how they are gonna pair us up.", said Jolteon.
Just then, a voice came from the speakers.
"Congratulations on making it to the quarter finals, Umbreon, Golisopod, Sylveon, Boltund, Raichu, Jolteon, Vaporeon, and Druddigan. You all have proved that you have incredible skills and will be ready to bring things to the next level in this competition. Your new matchups have been put on your phones. Please read them now.", said the voice, who they could all recognize to be from Blaziken.
They all checked their phones and saw who they would be fighting.
"Oh jeez........looks like it's me up against Druddigan.", said Umbreon.
"You against Druddigan?! Oh jeez, good luck then. It's a nightmare, I'll tell you that. It's a huge nightmare!", said Leafeon.
"I think that's because you're a grass type, Leafeon...", said Jolteon.
"Still!", said Leafeon.
"Speaking of which, I'm up against you, Raichu!", said Jolteon.
"Let me guess, you're gonna show me your super Saiyan fighting skills and go crazy on me?", said Raichu.
"Most likely if it comes to that.", said Jolteon.
"Figures. I wouldn't be surprised if I lose.", said Raichu.
"Oh dear, I'm going up against Vaporeon!", said Sylveon.
"Oh jeez.......I saw how you were fighting back there Sylveon. That seems like it could be a bit of a problem...", said Vaporeon.
"Yeah, but there is a difference between water and ice.", said Sylveon.
"They're both water, Sylvie.", said Umbreon.
"You know what I meant!", said Sylveon.
"Hey wait, Babe! Who did you get?", said Sylveon.
"Oh, I uh......got Golisopod....", said Boltund.
"*gasp*, oh no! Babe!", said Sylveon.
"Don't worry, baby. I'll be fine. I've got a plan for dealing with him.", said Boltund.
"What are you gonna do?", said Sylveon.
"Don't worry about it. Anyways, I'm gonna take a walk. See y'all later.", said Boltund before leaving the room.
"Oh I hope he survives! I can't bear to watch him get beat up by Golisopod! I just can't!", said Sylveon.
"Yeah.........right......", said Umbreon.
"Huh? What was that, Umbreon?", said Jolteon.
"Huh? Oh, nothing. Nothing don't worry about it.", said Umbreon.
Boltund walked down the hallway and went down into a corridor. There, he saw a dimly lit room with the door open. He walked inside, and saw Golisopod and Druddigan sitting behind a small wooden table.
"Took you long enough to meet up.", said Golisopod.
"Look, I want to wait until we got the matchups. Can you blame me?", said Boltund.
"Yes. Very much.", said Druddigan.
"Whatever. Anyways, you guys see the matchups?", said Boltund.
"Oh we saw them alright, and I am pissed off that I didn't get Umbreon. Arceus, how I hate that bastard.", said Umbreon.
"Hey! I managed to get him! You mad at me now?", said Druddigan.
"Yeah! Now I'm stuck fighting you!", said Golisopod.
"Hey, I ain't happy about this either. That's why I came here to discuss what we can do about this.", said Boltund.
"What can we do though? This is not how we initially planned it!", said Druddigan.
"Not sure. Guess we'll just do it as normal.", said Boltund.
"Yeah, I guess so...", said Golisopod, still angry.
"Oh, get over it, tough guy. You still got to get Flareon out of here? Why are you so obsessed?", said Boltund.
"Because out of all the kids at this school, they piss me off the most!", said Golisopod.
"And why exactly?", said Boltund.
"Ask me one more time and you're dead.", said Golisopod, raising his fist.
"Fair enough.", said Boltund.
"All I can say is, I'll be sure to bring the pain.", said Druddigan.
"You'd better.", said Golisopod, menacingly.
