Ultimate Cooordinator Chapter 10

Contest Arena

Solidad is standing on her side of the arena with her arms crossed.

She was analyzing her opponent: Krys from her looks.

Krys wore a gray hat to cover up her blue bangs, including one that resembles an M in the front of her head. She had green eyes and wore a red T-shirt with a small white jacket covering it and yellow shorts.

"Interesting, this is a girl from the Johto region. I will have to go easy on her." Solidad said to herself.

"Today's match is between Pewter City's Solidad and New Bark Town's Krys!" shouted Marian

"This battle will be a single battle, so let's begin!"

Solidad threw up one of her pokeballs in the air and released her Lapras to the field.

"Allright, go Wani-Wani!" shouted Marina

She opened up her pokeball to release a Feraligatr to the field.

"Feraligatr use Water Gun!"

Feraligatr opened it's jaws and released a blast of Water at Lapras. But Solidad just stood there, not issuing a command to her Lapras.

When the attack hit Lapras, Lapras didn't feel any pain. In fact, it appeared to enjoy the water.

"Water Absorb, Krys." Solidad said to Krys as her point total went down.

"Now Lapras, Dragon Dance!"

Lapras began to channel its energy and created 6 blue circles surrounding the creature. They began to spin faster and faster before dissipating into thin air.

"Feraligatr, it's time for your Brick Break combo!" Krys shouted to her Feraligatr

Feraligatr first began the attack by using Waterfall and coating itself in the water, before charging at Lapras with its hands preparing for the Brick Break attack.

"Lapras, dodge." Solidad said to her Lapras.

Lapras jumped into the air using it's fins and managed to dodge the attack, causing Krys to lose points.

"Keep going Feraligatr!" Krys shouted to her Feraligatr.

Feraligatr managed to use it's force to bounce off one of the walls and aim for the sky where Lapras currently was.

"Lapras, keep it up." Solidad said.

Lapras continued to dodge Feraligatr's attacks as Krys' point total was beginning to drop fast.

Waiting Room

"Wait a second, that's the same technique Solidad used on me!" May said in realization

"She's trying to bait Krys into attacking her Lapras. With that Dragon Dance set up, it's a bit faster than before." Drew responded

"So this is what you were talking about then?" Suzy asked Drew

"Yes. This Coordinator is really smart." Drew responded.

"But that doesn't make any sense; Lapras should still be slow even with Dragon Dance up."

That's when it hit Suzy.

"Wait a minute. What if this Lapras has Choice Scarf and is a bit more improved in Speed than regular Lapras?"

"Well, it's not impossible. The judges didn't say you can't use items in these competitions." Drew responded.

"Then that must also mean her Lapras has a nature focusing on Speed." Suzy said.

Contest Arena

"TIME!" Marian shouted to both competitors.

Feraligatr was completely exhausted, but Lapras was completely fine, almost as if there was no scratch on it.

When both Coordinators looked at the board, they clearly knew who won.

Krys lost a lot of points and Solidad barely took a hit.

"The winner is Solidad." Marian said into her microphone.

Krys returned Feraligatr to its pokeball and bowed to her opponent before leaving.

Waiting Room

When Solidad walked into the room, she saw Suzy looking at the TV screen.

"Still want to say I didn't get here because of my skills?" Solidad asked to Suzy.

Suzy then turned her head to face Solidad.

"If you call running away like a coward skill then you are solely mistaken." Suzy responded.

Solidad walked closer to Suzy and glared at her.

"If it wasn't a skill, then that girl would have been able to counter it. Since she didn't, it proves how useful that tactic is. You have a lot to learn girl." Solidad said before walking over to her seat.

"At least I don't use a Choice item." Suzy said to Solidad as she was about to leave.

Solidad stopped in her tracks after Suzy said that.

"So it looks like the big secret is out then? I guess it doesn't really matter then, especially since I studied on your matches and have developed counters for them. So it looks like I will be fighting Anthony in the next round then." Solidad said to Suzy.

Suzy just ignored what Solidad said and walked to the stage for her match.

"No matter how much you analyze your opponents, they can find a counter for your attacks and turn it back on you." The Black Greninja said to Solidad.

"Oh really?"

"Your plan relied on dodging her attacks. All she could have done was either put Lapras to sleep or to stop attacking it. Even if you used an attack, you would be stuck using that one move, giving Krys enough time to defeat you." The Black Greninja said.

Solidad then smirked.

"That's a very impressive solution to my attack plan." Solidad said to Black Greninja

"I know of your Pokémon and a way to counter them. Unlike you, I plan on the spot and make quick judgments. But I know Suzy can defeat you." Black Greninja responded.

"I know what to do against her even if she does pull out a lucky win." Solidad said before taking a seat.
