“This’ll be a three on three battle, agreed?” Icy asks.
    “Agreed.” Lewis replies.  “Marowak go!” Lewis shouts, throwing a pokéball.
    “Ah yes, a Ground type.  Ready to fight, come in sight!  Icy calls Buttercup!” Icy shouts in battle phrase.  “Buttercup, Psybeam attack!” Icy shouts.  Buttercup fires the beam and is knocked back.
    “Marowak!  Counter with bone club!” Lewis shouts.  Marowak jumps up and hits Buttercup with its bone.  Buttercup is a bit dazed, but not out.
    “Now Buttercup, sleep powder!” Icy shouts.  Buttercup released the powder at Marowak.  Marowak struggled to blow it away, but fell asleep.
    “Return, Marowak.” Lewis said.  Lewis thought over his Pokémon.  “Go Pidgeot!” Lewis shouts.  The giant bird flew above Buttercup.
    “Buttercup!  Stun spore!” Icy commands.
    “Blow it back with whirlwind!” Lewis says.  Pidgeot flapped its wings and the stun spore hit Buttercup who now was paralyzed.
    “Agh!  Return Buttercup, and now I choose...  Static!” Icy says.  The Pikachu comes out of its pokéball and stands at the ready for battle.  “Static!  Thunder attack!” Icy shouts.  Static charged up, and lightning clouds formed in the gym!  Suddenly, Static releases a powerful burst of electricity!  Pidgeot was fried!
    “Return, Pidgeot.” Lewis says.  Static puts up two fingers in victory.
    “You didn’t really think you could defeat a psychic trainer did you? Let alone a pokémon master?” Icy asks.
    “I’m not through yet.  I know there’s still one Pokémon I’ve never seen a Pikachu defeat.  Alakazam go!” Lewis shouts.
    “WHAAAT!  You’re a Psychic trainer too???” Icy demanded.
    “Most people from Saffron are!” Lewis replies.  Static was too afraid to move.  “Alakazam, psywave.” Lewis says.  Alakazam fires a wave of Psy energy straight at Static!  Static was easily beaten by it.
    “Return Static!” Icy shouts.
    “Ready to accept defeat?” Lewis asks.
    “Ok Lewis... You may think you’re pretty hot stuff, but now you’ll see that you have made a grave error... I choose HOCUS!!!” Icy shouts.  The Kadabra stands in battle ready mode, awaiting its master’s commands.
    “A Kadabra.  Interesting.” Lewis says.
    “Hocus!  Psychic attack!” Icy shouts.
    “Alakazam, teleport!” Lewis shouts.  Hocus stops firing a Psychic attack.
    “Stay alert, Hocus.” Icy says.  Lewis and Icy’s eyes both start to glow...  Lewis nods his head, and Alakazam teleports right above Hocus!  “Hocus!  Teleport out of the way!” Icy shouts.  Hocus teleports just as Alakazam safely touches ground.
    “Psybeam now!” the two shout at the same time.  Alakazam and Hocus both fire a psybeam at each other, which collide and knock the two back.
    “Hocus!  Quickly teleport and follow with a psybeam!” Icy shouts.
    “You aren’t gonna get to Alakazam that easily!  Alakazam, teleport as well!” Lewis shouts.  Alakazam and Hocus teleport so fast that only Lewis and Icy can see them, and the spectators can’t.
    “This is getting intense.” Sara says in the stadium seats.
    “I know, Hocus has the advantage of being a high level, but Alakazam has the advantage of being the evolution!” Meeko says.
    “This could be a mis-match.” Nicky says.
    Suddenly, the two stop teleporting, and Hocus fires a quick psybeam at Alakazam which hits!  Hocus stops, happy for hitting Alakazam.  “Looks like Hocus won.” Kelly says.
    Lewis smiles and says, “Recover.”  Alakazam glows, and gets back up!  Alakazam fires a psybeam at Hocus, who also gets hit!
    “Hocus!  Recover!” Icy shouts.  Hocus glows and gets back on the stadium.
    “This is gonna get tedious.” Meeko says.
    “Hocus!  Full force psybeam nooooooooow!” Icy commands.  Hocus powers up a powerful psybeam!
    “Alakazam, teleport!” Lewis shouts.  Hocus fires its psybeam, but it misses and Alakazam teleports behind him!  Hocus focuses and moves with the psybeam and fires it at Alakazam!
    “Alakazam, psybeam!” Lewis shouts.  The psybeams collide again!  The two are knocked to their trainer’s feet, and they both recall them.
    “One more round.” Icy says with a smile.  Suddenly, the roof of the gym opens, revealing sunlight!  Lewis was predicting what was happening next.  “Go Leafy!” Icy shouts.  The Gloom stood on the stadium floor.  “It’s a beautiful day!” Icy shouts.
    Lewis looked at his pokéballs and thinks, <Pidgeot it fried, Lickitung’s paralysis won’t work, Marowak is asleep, Graveler couldn’t win against a grass type, Alakazam is unconscious, Charmander is still resting, Bulbasaur could fight, but it might be another mis-match, and Weedle isn’t strong enough!  I guess I have to use Bulbasaur.>  Lewis takes out a pokéball and shouts, “I refuse to lose so it’s all up to you, Bulba-”  Suddenly, Weedle pops out instead of Bulbasaur!  Everyone looks in amazement at it!
    “A Weedle?” Icy asks.
    “Weedle, I wanted Bulbasaur, but try your hardest!” Lewis shouts.
    “Ha!  Leafy solar beam!  Let’s finish this battle!” Icy shouts.  Gloom begins absorbing solar rays...
    “Weedle!  Use that drill sting attack I taught you to dig underground!” Lewis shouts.  Weedle starts spinning and digs underground!  Leafy stops the attack as it waits.  Lewis’s eyes glow, and it commands Weedle to attack telepathically.  Weedle pops up under Leafy at an incredible speed, tackling her.  Gloom recovers fast, and fires a solar beam straight at Weedle!  Weedle is knocked to Lewis’s feet.
    “It’s over Lewis...” Icy says.  Weedle suddenly gets a mean look in its eyes, and it jumps back onto the field!  Weedle’s eyes start glowing!  “What’s happening???” Icy demands.
    “Weedle, what are you doing?” Lewis asks.  Weedle points its stinger at Leafy.  The stinger is starting to glow too!  Leafy starts a petal dance to protect herself.  Weedle suddenly fires a Psybeam!  Leafy opens her eyes and sees the beam hit her and knock her out!  Icy and Lewis are both shocked!
    “Return, Leafy.” Icy says, still shaken from it.
    “That’s impossible.” Icy says.  Everyone in the stadium is switching their views from Weedle, to Lewis.
    “Um, nice work Weedle.  Return.” Lewis says, also shaken.  An exhausted Weedle returns to its Pokéball.
    “As a sign of success for winning, here is a Forest badge.” Icy says, handing over the badge.  Sara comes down and asks Lewis if she can assist Lewis in research on his Weedle.
    “Sure, I’m gonna need all the help I can get on this one.” Lewis replies, pinning the badge to his flannel shirt.
