It was time for Liam's Semifinal battle. He would be up against his rival Trevor. "Feralagatr!" He called. "Ohm! You're up!" Liam called as Jolteon appeared. "Ferlagatr, Ice Fang!" Trevor called. "Charge Beam!" Liam replied. Feralagatr wound up charging head on into the electric attack, and bit Jolteon. "Superpower!" Trevor commanded. "Thunder Wave!" Liam ordered. Feralgatr was paralyzed and unable to move that turn. "Agility!" Liam called. Trevor called for Superpower again, but Feralagatr was able to move. "Charge Beam!" Liam replied. the attack was critical and activated Torrent. "Hydro Cannon!" Trevor called. The attack fired off and hit Ohm. "Thunderbolt!" Liam ordered. The attack was too much for Ferlagatr and he was KO'd. Trevor replaced Ferlagatr with Gengar. "Gengar, Hypnosis!" Trevor called. "Close your eyes and use Baton Pass!" Liam called. Ohm managed to avoid be put to sleep and concerted his energy into a floating baton. He then returned to his Pokeball, and Grimm emerged, grabbing the baton and gaining the stat altercations Ohm had. "Shadow Ball!" Both trainers called. the two balls collided in the middle of the stage , resulting in a stalemate. Liam noted that Trevor's Gengar had gotten quite strong. "Night Shade!" Trevor called. "Shadow Sneak!" Liam replied. Grimm got in first with his priority move. Night shade hit. Grimm Began to glow white as he evolved into Dusclops. "[i]Dusclops, the Beckon Pokemon, and the evolved form of Duskull. Dusclops's body is completely hollow-there is nothing at all inside. It is said that its body is like a black hole. This Pokémon will absorb anything into its body, but nothing will ever come back out however large the object may be. This Pokémon hypnotizes its foe by waving its hands in a macabre manner and by bringing its single eye to bear. The hypnotized foe is made to do Dusclops's bidding.[/i]" "Now Grimm, Shadow Punch!" Liam ordered. Gengar couldn't take the damage from the attack and was KO'd. Trevor sent a Houndoom out to replace the ghost. Liam asked Grimm if he wanted to take a break and Grimm refused. “[i]Houndoom, the Dark Pokemon, the evolved form of Houndour. Long ago, people imagined its eerie howls to be the call of the grim reaper. The flames it breathes when angry contain toxins. If they cause a burn, it will hurt forever. In a Houndoom pack, the one with its horns rakes sharply toward the back serves as the leader.[/i]" "Crunch!" Trevor called. "Pain Split!" Liam called quickly. Grimm used his powers to evenly divide the total of his and Houndoom's remaining HP amongst them, allowing him to survive the Crunch "Rock Tomb!" Liam replied. Houndoom was damaged and his speed dropped. Another Crunch finished Grimm, who was replaced with Hydro the Blastoise. A single Hydro Pump finished Houndoom, who was replaced by Venasaur. "Hydro, Ice Beam!" Liam called. The cold attack made a direct hit on Venasaur. "Frenzy Plant!" Trevor called. A series of giant vines shot up out of the ground and smacked Hydro for severe damage and a critical hit, triggering Torrent. "Ice Beam!" Liam called. Venasur was KO'd and Trevor was down to his final Pokemon. He called on Alakazam, who used Psychic and finished Hydro off. Liam was now on his fourth Pokemon and sent out Arcanine. A long drawn out battle led to Arcanine losing, but just barely. Arcanine was swapped out for Liam's final Pokemon, Sherlock the Alakazam. A battle of wits amongst the two PSI pokemon ensured In the end, Sherlock pulled it off. In truth, Liam was prepared to Mega Evolve toward the end, something he wanted to avoid doing till the final found. But Trevor's Alakazam fainted as Liam was reaching for the button. 6 Shiranui Tuskiko [s]15 Virgil[/s] 25 Liam Coleman [s]29 Trevor Walton[/s]
