Pokemon: Master of tactics
Chapter 123 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 123

Alex, who is the referee in this tournament, looked at Scizor and Ditto.

He waited until both pokemon were ready and gave the signal to start. ​​

Ditto immediately used Transform and surprisingly transformed into Gardevoir and not Scizor. Ditto, who can only transform into Pokemon that he sees at this point in time, was able to see Gardevoir relatively well who was watching the battle and therefore transform himself into a Gardevoir

Although Alex isn't sure whether it is allowed is to use Transform in a real tournament and if you can use it like that, he said nothing when Ditto was using the move like that. He Doesn't think that it would be fair to ban this type of transform for Ditto just because it is probably not allowed in official tournaments.

Scizor was slightly surprised that Ditto turned into Gardevoir but he said nothing and started using agility. Although he had to admit that Ditto is not an easy opponent, Scizor wasn't really afraid to fight Ditto. He thinks the ditto of the 4 participants is probably the weakest in 1v / s1 fights.

Ditto wasted no time and at the same time immediately started preparing Will-O-Wisp.

Scizor, who had practiced the move agility a bit, was a bit faster and managed to use his move shortly before Ditto's move was done.

After not even a second, Ditto used Will-O-Wisp, and Scizor, who wasn't sure he could avoid this move, used Protect.

Ditto, who saw that Scizor had blocked his attack, showed no expression and began to prepare Will-O-Wisp again. Ditto knows how much interference and harm Will-O-Wisp can inflict on a Pokemon that is weak against fire through Alex who explained to him that even status moves do more damage if they are used against Pokemon that are weak against this type.

Scizor, who knows that too, knew that he had to quickly replace a way around this move before he was crippled by this move. He quickly prepares his next move.

Ditto who was done prepare his next Will-O-Wisp immediately used it against Scizor who was using the move substitutes at the same time.

Substitutes in this world function like a second skin that can absorb small amounts of damage. Although this move is not very popular in this world, Alex who played the Pokemon Games knows how useful the move can be. Alex explained a lot of his tactics to his Pokemon and of course, also explained the peculiarities of the move that the Pokemon can use in great detail.

Will-O-Wisp who hit the second skin of Scizor did not start to burn directly as it usually did immediately but began to slowly go out when he made contact with this surface.

Ditto who saw that Scizor found a good way to avoid his best move(in this fight) knew that he had to replace another way to win.

Unfortunately, Ditto's moves aren't on the expert rank like Gardevoir's moves are with making it impossible to use a move like Disable now. Although Disable can also be used when it is not on the expert rank, the restrictions are too great to be able to use it now. Alex thought it was a shame that Ditto was two levels lower than Scizor and therefore couldn't use the move.

Ditto immediately started preparing the move Calm Mind. at the same time, Scizor began preparing Sandstorm.

Ditto, who has now successfully strengthened himself, was surrounded by a small sandstorm that lightly disturbs his eyesight. He ignored the sandstorm and started using Calm Mind again.

Scizor uses the time to use Razor Wind against the ground and slowly uses the dust to make the sandstorm completely opaque for Ditto to see through.

Ditto, who used Calm Mind twice, was not afraid that he might not see Scizor and started preparing Thunderbolt.

Alex who saw this knew why Ditto didn't care that he couldn't see Scizor. Ditto who transforms into Gardevoir not only has access to the moves but also to the sense of the Pokemon.

Gardevoir that is a Psychic-Type Pokemon is very good at discovering other Pokemon as long as they are not much stronger than them and it's close enough.

Psychic-Type Pokemon can even detect Ghost-Type Pokemon that can hide in shadows as long as the Ghost Pokemon is not much stronger than the Psychic-Type Pokemon is, can it detect Ghost pokemon.

In comparison, Scizor Sandstrom isn't much better than a Ghost Pokemon for Gardevoir's sense.

Scizor, who thinks he's safe in this Sandstrom, started using agility.

Ditto, who knows the positions of Scizor, uses Thunderbolt and hit Scizor on the head who was not expecting this attack.

Scizor's Substitutes was broken instantly and Scizor was vulnerable again. Scizor, who was confused about why Ditto could hit him, knew that he didn't have time to think, and immediately started running in the direction of Gardevoir. With the reinforcement of the move agility, Scizor's racing speed is very fast. While running, he also started using the move metal claw.

Ditto, who felt that Scizor was running quickly in his direction, began to use teleport and teleport to the edge of the arena. Then he immediately starts using Thunderbolt again.

Scizor, who understood Ditto's strategy, started chasing after Ditto. Every time Ditto teleports away, he runs again after Ditto. Scizor, who often saw Gardevoir's fights, knows that Ditto can't use this move very often, and because of the high speed he can sometimes dodge Ditto's attacks.

Although he is sometimes hit by Ditto's attacks, the damage is not very high. He also uses Roost when running to heal himself a bit.

Ditto felt that he was slowly running into a wall and, knew that he had to change his strategy, but after thinking about it for a long time, he just couldn't think of a good option.

After not being chased for not even 1 minute, Ditto couldn't use the move teleport and had to try to fight Scizor.

Scizor, who was very fast than other Pokemon, was able to force Ditto's teleport much faster and was able to consume Ditto's teleport much faster.

Although Scizor was hit several times by Thunderbolt and had lost around 35 hp%, he still had more than 40 hp% left (substitutes used)

But Ditto, who still had 90 Hp% (Sandstorm), was not happy about this fact. He knew that move teleport is more important as Hp points for most Psychic Pokemon.

Ditto, who knew that he now had to hope for a crit, began to prepare for his next attack.

Scizor, who had finally used up all of Ditto's teleports, quickly ran towards ditto and started using Metal Claw.

Ditto use Thunderbolt again and hit Scizor.

Scizor ignored the pain and used Metal Claw along with the speed he had built up while running.

Ditto who is a Gahrdevoir was thrown 5 meters away and suffered a lot of damage. A move on the expert rank together with the accumulated speed is no joke when it hits.

Gardevoir (Ditto) who is not a Pokemon with good defense values ​​and gets double damage from Steel moves suffers a big wound. Ditto who was hit began to bleed heavily and had hardly any Hp (25%) left.

Scizor quickly tried to end the fight and used Metal Claw again. Scizor knew that Metal Claw is faster than any move Ditto can use so that he has no concern about what Ditto can do.

Ditto who knew he would unconscious when hit by this move quickly use Protect.

To Alex's surprise, Scizor broke through Ditto's Protect and met Ditto who had barely any Hp left.

Although the attack was severely weakened it was enough to defeat Ditto.

Alex, who saw that Ditto is unconscious, quickly ran to Ditto to heal him.
