League Of Guessing Magikarp Used Fly
This is excactly the same as the other guessing thread, except you will have to guess the human char. Notably Waterfall is Gyarados best STAB move and gets used competitively so it hardly even counts, while Strength is a reasonable attacking move coming off of its 125 base Atk. This allows Gyarados to be perfectly serviceable even when used as a HM slave while still being a fully-contributing member of the party.
Dragon Master Ash!
Chapter 6 Capture and Cascade!
AN: I will just say sorry and explain the rest at the end, go ahead and read the chapter.
Thanks again to my beta reader Darkrai6543

'Cerulean Gym here I come!' Came the exclaimed voice of the former Pewter gym leader but before he could get into his mad dash towards the largest dome building in the city he was hauled back by Ash's grip on his shoulder causing him to fall back.
'Hey! What's the big idea?' shouted Brock with a large bump on his head as he picked himself up off the dirt.
'Why are you so excited Brock?' queried a curious Ash 'I'm the one that's going to challenge the leader while you watch right?'
'Yeah, you are so right,' sighed Brock dreamily 'I will be watching the three most beautiful Kanto gym leaders.' he said looking towards the gym and nearly floating like a Nosepass does north.
Ash and Misty face faulted 'Great! We have a pervert travelling with us.' spoke Misty, the words in both their minds. They briskly walked ahead and decided to ignore Brock and his perverted nature for the time being and focus on finding the Pokémon Centre.
As they entered the building Ash looked around; it was like all other Pokémon centers but it was completely empty apart from the nurse Joy behind the desk.
'Hi Nurse Joy, can we have a room for three please?' asked Misty as she reached the desk first.
'Oh Misty, it's good to see you again, wouldn't you rather stay at your own home than here?' asked Nurse Joy, showing her recognition of the redhead trainer.
'No way,' countered Misty quickly 'I'm travelling around Kanto with Ash here.' she said pointing towards the raven haired boy 'I'd rather stay with him than my sister's.' she spat the last word like a curse.
'Well okay, but you shouldn't hate family Misty.' Chided the nurse, 'I'm sure they don't mean ill when they tease you, they do love you.' she explained. 'It's been nearly over two months since you left and they have been visiting here daily for a week now asking if you've turned up.' she informed the now curious redhead. 'They thought you were joking when you left and expected you to come back home after a month or so, and now they're upset that they drove you away and couldn't even give you a proper send-off.' she finished.
'Really?' asked Misty with narrowed eyes, 'That's hard to believe, but I know you don't lie. I'll go see them tomorrow.' replied Misty reluctantly, 'can we have that room please?' she asked again.
'Sure but you'll have to have two rooms as all the three bed rooms have been taken.' she explained as she handed over two keys. Misty stared at the keys for a while before coming to a decision; she handed the key with one bed back to Nurse Joy.
'Can you give this to a boy named Brock when he gets here? He has spiky brown hair and squinted eyes.' Misty explained as she took the key in her hand and beckoned Ash to follow. Ash looked at Misty with a questioning gaze and she blushed under the scrutiny.
'It's just I've gotten used to staying with you so I thought we should share the room and give Brock more room.' she explained while looking pointedly ahead to stop her from blushing more.
Ash accepted her explanation and thought nothing more of it as they entered their room and he unloaded the pack he was carrying.
He sat on his bed and got out his Pokédex to look through the different types of Pokémon he might find in this area and he quickly came to the conclusion that the home city of the water type Pokémon gym was also the home of mainly water Pokémon and a few grass types.
He sighed heavily as he came across his first major obstacle of being a Dragon type Pokémon trainer. There weren't many options available to him to capture Pokémon that he specialized in.
Looking up he noticed Misty had just gotten out of the shower fully dressed but with a towel wrapped around her drying hair.
'What are you doing Ash?' Misty asked as she noticed Ash hadn't moved from the position she left him in and was only now just looking up at her.
Ash sighed again and put the Pokédex away and rubbed his eyes tiredly 'I was looking to see if there are any Pokémon I can catch around here' Misty immediately caught on to his problem as it was the same one she was having as well right now.
'I know what you mean, I haven't had the chance to catch many new Pokémon either seeing as I want to train water Pokémon only.' she said as she sat down next to him.
Hearing Misty voice his concerns gave Ash a sudden idea and he turned to face Misty with a renewed vigor in his eyes.
'I think I have a solution for both of our problems' Misty was now looking at him waiting for his explanation, he didn't disappoint 'It's something I've done already by catching Onix, even if he chose to join me and not the other way round.' started Ash, 'We should look through all the Pokémon entries and catch not only water and Dragon type Pokémon, but also other Pokémon that are able to perform moves that are water and dragon type by nature.' he explained looking into Misty's eyes, hoping she thought this was a good idea.
Misty thought over what Ash said, and then grabbed him in a tight hug. 'That's a great idea Ash. That way we stay true to our ambition of being a type specialist, and we get to have more versatility in our teams to take on a range of opponents and Pokémon.' she said excitedly while letting go of the now flustered and blushing boy.
Ash got out his Pokédex while Misty had a pen and paper ready to note down Pokémon they would most likely meet throughout their Kanto journey that met their requirements.
'Done.' said Ash two hours later.
He closed the Pokédex and looked towards Misty. The list they had made for each of them was longer than they had expected for one region, but were happy they had such a large pool to choose from.
'Finally!' exclaimed Misty. 'My fingers are sore from so much writing. I'm amazed there are so many Pokémon with abilities in water and dragon type moves that aren't that type of Pokémon.'
She looked at Ash again, 'There is a special place in the city I want to show you.' she said as she got up from her place and held her hand out towards Ash. 'There are some special Pokémon in this place that would fit perfectly into both of our teams.' she explained as she put on her shoes as Ash did the same.
Back outside the Pokémon center Misty lead the way north of the city and deeper into the wild.
After a short trek through the small wilderness within the city, Misty pushed aside some bushes and Ash followed her through to come facing a small pond. Looking into the water he could easily see the pond was a lot deeper than it was wide.
'I found this place a few years ago, and I've been coming back here regularly ever since.' Misty gave a shrill whistle, not a few seconds later Ash could see some small figures racing towards the surface of the water. As soon as they broke through to the surface Ash became excited; in front of him was a group of Horsea.
'Hi guys!' greeted Misty cheerfully as she sat cross legged at the edge of the pond.
'This is my friend Ash. We're going on a journey and we were hoping two of you would like to join us?' explained Misty.
Now Ash was even more interested; he had always wanted a Kingdra one day. After only a few seconds one Horsea out of the group jumped out the pond and landed in Misty's arms, this one was clearly smaller than the rest and Ash decided it must still be an infant.
As no more were forthcoming, Ash and Misty sat there playing with the Horsea for a few hours.
'Overall it was a pleasant day.' Thought Ash as he and Misty got ready to leave as the sun was setting.
Still, he was disappointed that none of the Horsea wanted to join him. The thought hadn't fully left his mind, when he was knocked to the ground by a Horsea jumping out of the pond.
Looking at it in shock, Ash and Misty were wondering what was wrong before they noticed it was standing few feet from Ash in a battle ready position. Understanding flooded Ash within seconds and he smirked.
'Alright, if it's a battle you want, go Magikarp!' Ash commanded Pokémon who also took a battle position immediately upon release.
'Agility to tackle!'
Magikarp moved to a blur, dodging the sludge bombs coming her way with agility and tackling the resilient Horsea.
As it was falling the Horsea twisted to face Magikarp and released a water gun attack, scoring a direct hit.
'You can take that hit Magikarp, another tackle, and then flail!' Ash shouted.
Magikarp endured the direct hit easily and returned with another tackle, following with flail, recognizable by the flailing of the fins and tail, both scoring direct hits and dazing the Horsea.
Ash wasted no time and threw his Pokéball at the dizzy Pokémon, who was then sucked in immediately.
After a short struggle the 'ding' showed a successful capture.
'YES!' Ash cheered even as he was brought into a hug by his friend who was cheering just as exuberantly.
'I'm so happy for you Ash; I was disappointed when none of them wanted to join you at first. I guess they just wanted to get to know you first.' said Misty as she released him from her hug.
The excited duo was back at the Pokémon center now and was chatting in the waiting room as Nurse Joy checked over their new Pokémon; and this was where Brock found them as he entered the center with a spring in his step.
'Hi guys, how was your day? I had a great time watching the sensational sister's shows. They're so beautiful.' said Brock in a fast greeting that ended with a sigh while he thought of the beautiful girls he spent his afternoon watching.
'Our day was awesome! Me and Misty caught a new Pokémon and are waiting for Nurse Joy to check them over.' replied Ash a lot more calmly than Brock.
'Have you two got our room yet?' Asked Brock
'Yes,' replied Misty. 'There were no large rooms so we had to take two. Ash and I had already settled into one when you ran off, so we left your room key with Nurse Joy.' she explained.
Thinking nothing of it, Brock just nodded and said he was turning in for the night before going to pick his room key up from the beautiful nurse; of course it wasn't like Brock could resist a little creepy flirting before getting his key, Ash and Misty just sweatdropped at his antics before deciding to ignore it and go back to their previous conversation.
After a while they received their Pokémon back from Nurse Joy and headed to bed as well.
Now changed and tucked in, Misty's mind wandered back to meeting her sisters tomorrow.
'Don't worry Misty, I'm sure Nurse Joy was being honest and they'll be glad to see you tomorrow.' said Ash, seemingly understanding her thoughts.
Misty smiled at him in thanks before they wished each other a good night and went to sleep.
Saying Misty woke from one of her best dreams wouldn't be far off the mark.
'And what a dream.' thought Misty; it included everything from Pokémon, her sisters, and the future. (Or at least what she hoped was the future.)

Looking to the bed next to hers it was empty, as to be expected by now.
Ash got out of the shower in just a towel wrapped around him, obviously in the misconception that Misty was still sleeping.
Looking at his state of dress, Misty was at first stunned, which turned to just staring.
Being only ten Ash wasn't muscular or anything like that, but he was well toned thanks to the training he had done since he received Fraxure over three years ago.
Noticing Misty's stare he immediately started to turn a deep shade of red that unfortunately was even more evident thanks to his bare chested-ness.
Upon seeing the target of her vision turn red Misty quickly averted her gaze, cursing herself for being so blatant and being suddenly in a rush to get ready for the day.
'Morning Ash, I'll see you downstairs after I get ready.' she rushed out really quick followed by the banging of the bathroom door.
Coming out of his own stupor, Ash decided to ignore their morning's awkwardness and follow Misty's not so subtle advice to get ready and leave the room.
By the time Misty, Ash and Brock were done with breakfast the two pre-teens were over their awkwardness that went unnoticed by the older teen thanks to his own daydreams of blonde, blue and pink beauties in water shows.
'Let's go guys, I can't wait for my next badge!' shouted Ash, dragging Misty along. You didn't have to tell Brock to hurry up, not when meeting the subjects of his last night's dreams.
They got to the front of the gym in a matter of minutes, and by then Misty was doubled over and panting thanks to the unexpected run.
Ash was too awed by the gym to notice; it was massive and shaped as a dome; the roof was all glass from his point of view, but what his attention was the overly large statue of a Dewgong above the double door entrance. It looked so lifelike that for the life of him he couldn't figure out what it was made of.
Coming out of his reverie he followed Brock through the entrance with Misty nervously following him.
The entrance of the gym was much brighter than that of the Pewter Gym and had a large round reception area at the front.
Upon seeing Misty the receptionist quickly walked through a side room, and it could be easily guessed why, as after a few seconds three tall beautiful women came rushing out and headed straight for Misty.
To Ash they seemed to have consumed his redhead friend as he lost complete sight of her amongst blue, pink and blonde.
'Oh Misty, we missed you so much! We thought you were never coming back!' spoke the blonde.
'Yea like, you've never been gone so long before.' said the pink haired girl
'We're like, sorry for being mean to you, we were just teasing our little sister and didn't mean to be hurtful or anything.' said the bluenette.
'Let… go… can't… breathe.' Misty managed to force out from somewhere under the pile.
Her sisters quickly untangled themselves from the impromptu group hug, but still stood very close, not willing to let their sister out of sight anytime soon.
'Sorry,' replied the blonde 'We really didn't realize how badly we upset you until months went by and you still hadn't returned.' she finished.
Her attention then went towards the two boys who were thoughtful enough to give the reuniting sisters a lot of space and stood at the other end of the round desk. At least it was so for Ash, but Brock just seemed too star struck to notice anything else since the sensational sisters walked in.
'Hi, my name is Daisy.' said the blonde, 'These are my sisters Violet,' she said pointing towards the bluenette 'And Lily.' she finished the introduction pointing towards the pink haired girl.
'The receptionist said Misty was here with two boys, so I'm guessing you already know Misty.' she said with a questioning gaze that Ash quickly nodded to.
'Yeah they know me.' said Misty 'I've been travelling with Ash for over a month now and Brock joined us when we left Pewter City less than a week ago.' said Misty pointing towards the boys as she spoke their names.
'Nice to meet you.' said Ash 'I'm here for a gym battle.' said Ash with more exuberance and a little steel in his voice to show his confidence to the experienced gym leaders.
'Like, wow Misty. Your boyfriend is a feisty one.' said Lily, which immediately made the two concerned blush deep red, especially Ash who lost the fight in him in favor of embarrassment.
'He's not my boyfriend!' shouted Misty, who was standing right next to Lily, effectively doubling the effect to send the message home.
'Ow! Okay, okay relax I was just kidding.' replied Lily hastily whilst rubbing her sore ears.
'Enough teasing Lily, we'll be glad to accept your challenge Ash.' said Daisy cutting in.
'It's a good thing you didn't come a few weeks earlier or we would have to turn you down.' said Daisy, immediately diverting the attention of the blushing pair as Misty motioned for an explanation.
'Three trainers from this nowhere town called Pallet came and demolished all our Pokémon, we were depressed and for a while started just giving away our badge-' Misty immediately saw red at that confession but Violet hastily cut in.
'-But we got a warning after a couple of days from the league so started battling again.' explained Violet. 'That was over a month ago now and we're back on track to be the sensational gym leaders again.' said Violet as she struck a pose that gave Brock a nosebleed.
Misty was now standing on a platform near the gym pool with her sisters standing on one end of the pool and ash at the other.
'This will be a three on three elimination battle between the Cerulean Gym leaders and Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town.' announced Misty, 'There will be no substitutions and the battle will be won when either side gets two wins out of three. The challenger may call his Pokémon first.' said Misty lowering the flags.
'Go Charmander!' He knew this was a risk but he wanted Charmander to gain more experience at battling at a disadvantage.
'Bad mistake Ash, go Seaking!' Shouted Lily as she sent out her first Pokémon.
'Seaking, double team and water gun!' instructed Lily.
'Dodge them all Charmander and wait for it to get closer.'
Charmander waited until all the jets of water were close before jumping back and pausing.
'Seaking use Horn attack!' Shouted Daisy.
Seaking swam towards Charmander incredibly fast, preparing to jab at the lizard.
'Now Charmander, wait for it to get closer then dodge to the left and use metal claw!' Instructed Ash calmly.
Seaking was nearly upon Charmander as Ash finished his instructions, but Charmander managed to dodge, her claws gleaming with a metallic sheen as she brought it down at Seaking's flank, sending it spinning back into the water with a pained grunt.
'Hang in there Seaking and use quick attack into Horn attack!' shouted Lily as Seaking recovered.
'Smokescreen then agility into metal claw again Charmander!' instructed Ash.
'Dive under water Seaking and continue the attack.'
Seaking followed Lily's instructions to a T as he continued the quick attack, horn attack combo from under water.
As soon as he sprang up with his Horn glistening Charmander slashed her metallic claw down and the two attacks clashed.
Lily took full advantage of the stalemate; 'Now Seaking full power water pulse!' she shouted quickly to her Pokémon.
Before Ash could react Seaking let out a powerful water pulse hitting Charmander at point blank and causing her to fly backwards.
She would have hit the wall painfully if Ash didn't intervene, but she was clearly knocked out.
'Good job Charmander, you did brilliantly.' said Ash as he returned his Pokémon.
He looked towards the trainer and Pokémon that dealt him his first defeat with respect. They might have won the round but the battle was far from over.
'Go Magikarp!' said Ash without any prompting as Violet took the stage.
'A Magikarp? You need to take this gym battle more seriously Ash, Go Staryu' Announced Violet as she sent out her sea-star Pokémon.
Without wasting any time Ash got to work.
'Magikarp use agility and tackle underwater!' shouted Ash with more determination in his voice.
But Magikarp did something even he was taken aback by as she went from agility to an even faster version of it and hit Staryu on its gem in a blur.
'Way to go Magikarp, you learned quick attack!' praised Ash, 'Now keep swimming underwater.'
Violet was in a tough position; she needed to attack the Magikarp but it was so fast she couldn't even see it.
'Staryu try swift attack on whatever moving target you can see.' she said desperately.
Her Pokémon however was having a little more luck in seeing its opponent and fired many small shining stars at the blur of red in the water.
'Dodge them all Magikarp and hit it with quick attack!' Ash said quickly.
Magikarp easily evaded the attack and hit Staryu dead center again.
'Keep the attack going and mix it up with flail.' said Ash feeling more confident now.
This went on for the next few minutes as Magikarp used her swift swim ability to be a blur of motion before attacking Staryu with quick attack and an occasional flail, both dealing damage and wearing the star-like Pokémon down.
Meanwhile Staryu was getting more and more frustrated as swift after swift was getting dodged with increasing ease. Lily knew that was the only move her Pokémon could use against such a fast Pokémon, as all water and psychic moves were either too slow or ineffective against Magikarp.
Finally though, Staryu succumbed to exhaustion and fainted; causing Ash to whoop out in joy.
'The winner of this round is Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town and his Magikarp; both the Challenger and gym leaders have one win apiece. Trainers, send out your last Pokémon.' shouted Misty as Daisy took the vacated space on the gym leader's platform.
'You've done well Ash but you will need to be really strong to beat my Pokémon, go Dewgong!' Shouted Lily.
Ash was amazed at seeing the magnificent water and ice type that adorned the top of the entrance to the gym; he knew he would have to go all out for this battle.
'Go Fraxure!' commanded Ash as he let out his oldest and most powerful friend.
The sight of the foreign Pokémon caused the sensation sisters to gape before Daisy composed herself for what was bound to be a very tough battle.
'Dewgong, use ice beam!' she instructed
'Meet it head on with Dragon Pulse!' commanded Ash as Fraxure and Dewgong squared themselves up for what they knew would be their toughest battle yet and let loose their respective attacks.
(END)
AN: Now to explain the apology, I promised a weekly update and missed two weeks in a row. First week was end of module exam week and I had to revise, the second week I was spirited away by friends on an impromptu holiday and only managed to start writing this chapter when I got back a couple of days ago.
I know I left it on a cliff-hanger, but it's my first one! I just felt I had to give the final battle to a beginning of a new chapter and I hope I can make the wait worth it, hopefully every other abnormality from cannon in this chapter from canon is explained within the story itself, and if not just review your questions or PM me.
Wobbuffet, The Patience Pokémon. It desperately tries to keep its black tail hidden. It is said to be proof the tail hides a secret. It hates light and shock. If attacked, it inflates its body to build up its counterstrike. To keep its pitch-black tail hidden, it lives quietly in the darkness. It is never first to attack.Overview
Wobbuffet is one of the most beastly Pokémon you will ever encounter. Despite its seemingly weak stats and incredibly shallow movepool, it beats the heart of a warrior and has the ability to easily take down whatever Pokémon it can. It is firmly entrenched within the Ubers tier and rightfully so.
Ability
Shadow Tag: Wobbuffet's ability is possibly the one thing that places it in the Uber tier. It prevents your opponent from switching out by conventional means, forcing them to have to use moves such as Baton Pass if they do wish to switch out their Pokémon.
Move Sets
Wobbu-Fett - Bounty Hunter
- Counter
- Mirror Coat
- Encore
- Safeguard
Item Attached: Leftovers
Ability: Shadow Tag
EVs and Nature:
EVs: 6 HP / 252 Def / 252 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
This set is the only set that is usable on Wobbuffet, and the only set it can actually have. The setup is relatively simple. Counter will take the damage it receives from Physical moves, double it and hit the opponent with that damage. Mirror Coat does the same but for Special moves. Normally, this would be done by guessing based upon your opponent, but a good strategy to use would be by making the opponent repeat the move by using Encore. This removes the element of guessing and will allow you to easily take out the opponent as its Shadow Tag ability will prevent them from switching. Safeguard is a good move to use as it will prevent Wobbuffet from being taken out by moves that inflict status conditions upon it thus making it able to withstand more of the battle and allow it to last longer.
EVs and Nature:
Wobbu-Fett - Bounty Hunter
The key to the EV distirbution here is to get Wobbuffett to last. While boosting its defences with full EVs, it will allow Wobbuffet to stand its ground and take out as many Pokémon as it can before surcoming to its opponents
Other Options
Destiny Bond
Destiny Bond can simply be used when Wobbuffet is about to be taken out to make sure its opponent can be taken out with it. There's nothing like a sacrificial move, but it does suffer from the fact that Wobbuffet has rubbish speed so it may not be able to succeed in taking out its foes.
Countering Wobbuffet
Wobbuffet is an incredibly tough Pokémon to counter. As it has moves that will double the damage you inflict, you need to be very prudent. However, as Counter is a Fighting-type move, Ghost types are immune so you can send a Ghost-type such as Shedinja, Banette or Dusknoir against Wobbuffet and pound it with Physical moves. Alternatively, as Mirror Coat is a Psychic-type, Dark types are immune and you can pound it with Special moves without risk of retribution using Pokémon such as Darkrai, Houndoom or Tyranitar. Choice Band Heracross are usually strong enough to be able to take out Wobbuffet in one hit.
Using status effects is also a good way to take out Wobbuffet. Sleeping moves can help you to pummel Wobbuffet without it attacking you back and a good Pokémon to use this method with is Darkrai as it can make it fall asleep while its ability will drain Wobbuffet of its health. Another decent strategy against Wobbuffet is using Pokémon that themselves prevent switching so Wobbuffet is stuck. Dugtrio is good at this, has good speed and can use the move Toxic to take out Wobbuffet without any retribution from Counter or Mirror Coat.
