Sorrel and Verity watched Pokemon starting to jump down, although they wanted to stop the ones that were aiming to get to Ash they were occupied with Lycanroc, which despite getting jumped was still going. But they could do something.

"Pikachu, go help Ash, we can take care of things here," Sorrel said as Lucario was grabbing the frenzied wolf.

Pikachu looked back at them and then at Piplup who gave him an overly dramatic gesture. "Pika" Pikachu nodded and started running.

Meanwhile, Ash was looking at Cross and laughing like a lunatic, "Congratulations you have earned your third-rate villain card" Ash said clapping for him and also pulling out his Pokeballs from his belt.

"Shut up you chose this you could have just given me the feather but instead you chose to battle." Cross started monologuing.

Ash did not pay attention he just released his Pokemon and gave them orders, "Kakuna, Nidorino you 2 take care of the Nidoking and Queen. Squirtle, Bulbasaur take care of the rest."

His Pokemon nodded, Squirtle hopped on Bulbasaur and rode into battle and Kakuna shot a web at Nidorino as he charged. Meanwhile, Ash was preparing to pull out some more Pokemon if he needed them.

"Hey are you ignoring me!"

"Yes"

"Darkest Lariat now" Cross yelled out as Incineroar's fist started getting covered in darkness and he dashed forward with his arm out aiming for Charmeleon's neck.

"Slash, aim for his elbow!"

Charmeleon took advantage of his smaller size and moved around aiming his strike at the elbow, landing and making Incineroar fall off course, and into the mountain wall hurting him in the process.

Through this battle Ash has told Charmeleon to specifically counter Incineroar's attacks, if Incineroar can get one good combo then he is going down, especially with Charmeleon's base 58 defense.

Meanwhile, Squirtle and Bulbasaur got to some of the marching Pokemon, the Pokemon in front of him were currently Magmar and Electabuzz. Squirtle launched himself with a rapid spin and Bulbasaur shot out his vines.

Meanwhile, Electabuzz started charging at the spinning turtle to give him a punch, but as the punch landed it couldn't even push Squirtle back and he continued spinning into Electabuzz's face.

He then got out of his shell and shot a scald into Electabuzz's face, the boiling water made the Pokemon reel back in pain.

Meanwhile, Magmar aimed a punch at Squirtle, but Bulbasaur's vines grabbed his friend and pulled him out of the way, making Magmar punch Electabuzz in the face, sending him reeling back.

Meanwhile, Bulbasaur used the momentum and sent Squirtle flying back into Magmar and Squirtle prepared the move he had been practicing, charging up his fist he delivered his own bootleg version of Jet Punch.

The speed of the water fist sent the Magmar face first into the mountain next to it, meanwhile, Electabuzz finally moved its hand only to see Bulbasaur shooting a Purple black ball of goop at it. That was the lights for the electric Pokemon.

Meanwhile, Squirtle jumped back and started charging a bluish ball, and threw it, then he turned around as it hit the fire type and it exploded, as he made a pose.

Squirtle aimed his fist out for a fist bump, but Bulbasaur put it down with his vine and pointed at more Pokemon approaching them, Squirtle smiled and pulled out his sunglasses, and started slow walking.

At the other side of the mountain, Nidorino spun around the cocoon so that it could get above the Pokemon he was Charging at, and then he shot out a Confusion to slow the Nidoking down a bit.

Meanwhile, Kakuna while being airborne started spreading out a lot of web strands for later use, and then she shot herself down with an Iron defense heading to bash the Nidoqueen in the head before she shot out an attack at Nidorino.

Nidorino meanwhile took the destruction and used an Ice Beam at the ground at the queen's feet, then when Kakuna hit Nidoqueen it made her slip and fall leaving her prone.

But before they could capitalize, Nidoking dashed forward and tried to grab Kakuna, but she shouted out another web to dash out of the way as Nidorino shot a Shadow Ball.

Nidoqueen while still on the ground tried to aim a thunderbolt at Kakuna, but the webs she set up dispersed them enough that it didn't hurt her as she shot a web closing the Nidoqueen's mouth.

Nidoking on the other hand lifted up his foot getting ready to start stomping, but before he could Nidorino got in front of Kakuna and used a protect.

Then Kakuna sent a purple web at the king that didn't do much damage but that wasn't the goal, Nidorino on the other hand came in from behind and sent an ice beam into Nidoking.

Nidoking tried to dodge but the web kept him in place making him get shot directly, making him barely stay up.

On the other hand, Nidoqueen used a light flamethrower to get rid of the ice and the web in her mouth, then when she got up she dashed at Kakuna who was busy holding the web, the Nidoqueen punched the ground as tremors started bursting out of the ground and dust enveloped her.

It was silent for a moment when the smoke cleared the figure of a cocoon lying motionless. And the Nidoqueen yelled out in victory.

But when the smoke cleared what was there was only the cocoon.

Suddenly a zip came from behind and a big shiny Beedrill appeared directly behind the Nidoqueen in a blink.

Suddenly Beedrill started zipping side to side before appearing and sending a strong Acrobatics to the Queen sending her flying back, but then she sent a web to grab Nidoqueen, then she used a move she was practicing with Nidorino.

She used a special web that started freezing slowly then quickly when it reached Nidoqueen putting a light blue freeze on her leg before pulling her back and into the Nidoking. She pulled on one of the webs from earlier and trapped them together and started dangling.

Neither of them celebrated as they saw more incoming so they prepared themselves.

Ash was still focusing on what his best shot to get close to Cross was, he knew he could end this if he could got one good chance, but as he was there a Magneton came levitating from the Mountain at him, but before it got close Pikachu jumped in and gave it a good Kick sending it back.

"Hey buddy good to see you, how are things looking over there"

"Pika-"

"Alright then do you mind covering me from them," Ash said before pointing at multiple Magnetons slowly approaching, Pikachu's cheeks lit up, and nodded.

Ash smiled and then focused on the battle again, Incineroar got back up and held his shoulder before getting back into his fighting pose, but at this point, Blaze activated and his fire got brighter.

Cross smiled seeing the scene unfold and held his X necklace, "It's time we end this," before pulling out a gem from his Pocket.

Ash immediately recognized it as a Firium Z, but it looked like some dark energy started gathering around it and then went into it.

"I didn't expect I would need to use this, but to show Ho-Oh I am the only one worthy then so be it," Cross said before putting the Firium Z into his X necklace, and it started glowing.

Cross made a pose that ended with him putting his hands on the ground as Incineroar did the same pose, and a black and yellow energy started coming from Incineroar.

Then he started charging a yellow and black fire from the belt, when it was ready Incineroar launched a large beam of fire aimed at Charmeleon.

"Charmeleon cover your arm with Dragon metal and brace yourself!"

Charmeleon set his claw with a purple glowing metal and braced his legs as Incineroar's fire beam got to him, Charmeleon was struggling trying to hold it up and Incineroar tried more fire..

–

Sorrel and Verity were trying to make Lycanroc go down, but he just wouldn't stay down, currently it was dashing at Piplup using Iron Head.

"Lucario stop him!" Sorrel commanded as Lucario started dashing forward and put both of his palms out slamming into the wolf as then a purple pulse came out of his hands pushing him back.

"Piplup Whirlpool!" Verity commanded as a giant cone of water came out and trapped the wolf in the middle spinning him around. Lucario then moved forward and made his fists glow blue and grabbed the water, freezing it in place creating a prison trapping Lycanroc inside.

Sorrel didn't bother to wonder anymore he just turned to Verity, "Alright we need to help Ash."

But when they both looked back the first thing they saw was Pikachu fighting a dozen or so floating Magneton, using his tail to bash into them. Getting them into a line.

Pikachu saw Sorrel and Verity approaching so he decided to end it. He sent a specific Thunderbolt with a different frequency that ended up moving between all of the magnets, making them slowly float down onto the floor each.

Now that they finished, they all focused on Ash when they noticed a flaming cat with Red and Black flames shooting out from his belt and Charmeleon trying to hold it back.

Charmeleon was struggling under the strength of the fire, the more he pushed the more he would get pushed back as well, he didn't want to lose, not again, he wanted to be strong so strong he would never lose again.

Charmeleon's heart was beating faster, and faster until it went back to its normal beat almost in sync with something, then he started glowing and pushing through Incineroar's fire, Incineroar started sweating and pushed with all his strength shooting into the Charmeleon, which created an explosion where he was.

The area went silent for a second but Cross started chuckling, until Ash said one thing that shut him up, "Why are you laughing, this battle isn't over, because my Pokemon hasn't gone down yet."

From the smoke a strong gust of wind pushed it down as an orange figure moved out from above, when they looked up what they saw was Charizard with his flame glowing brightly.

"Now Charizard I think we should show him our inferno,"

Charizard smiled as his fire also started flickering red and blue, he started charging fire from his gut, then as he released it, "Fire Dragon's Roar! (Flamethrower + Dragon Breath)" A heavily compressed red fire came out that shot at Incineroar.

Incineroar was tired but thought he could take it so he braced himself, but when it got close it expanded turning blue and hitting Incineroar, he tried to hold it back but the strength made him fly back and sent him barreling into the mountain creating an explosion, when the smoke cleared Incineroar was put into the mountain and unable to battle.

[Dragonborn - gain Dragon STAB, can learn any Dragon-type move.]

Cross stared at Incineroar with shock on his face, he tried to see where Lycanroc was but he was trapped in an ice prison, he looked over at the Pokemon that jumped in but most of them got taken care of.

Ash stepped forward preparing what needed to be done, the sound of his steps could be heard throughout the entire Mountain, and from high above the legendary dogs were staring down.

Suddenly Cross ran forward and aimed to get at Ash, but Ash hit him in the stomach with an opened palmed strike, putting his Aura through it, and from behind Cross Marshadow was shot out.

Everyone saw what just happened and was shocked seeing Marshadow, but Ash pulled out a Pokeball, "This is probably not going to work."

The ball went through the air but Marshadow just sunk into the ground and disappeared, and the Pokeball broke on the rock.

"Can't say I'm not surprised."
