Serena gasped at the name. "Serena, if I win you get to ditch the champion and dance with me," Calem declared. "You, champion, if I can defeat you, then I can have title as champion and Serena!"
Red did not even think for a second before responding,"Deal, but you won't win." This caused everyone to gasp and Serena gave Red a scared glare. Red looked at her and said it simple: "I will win don't worry." Last time she had seen that determination was with Ash.
"This will be a 1 on 1 battle, choose you pokemon and begin!" The ref exclaimed.
"Darkrai come on out!" Calem exclaimed shocking everyone. "I have champion and serena in the bag now."
Red was surprised, but he was not giving up. "Gliscor I choose you!" releasing the gray scorpion in front of the pitch black pokemon.
'Those words' Serena thought to herself.
"stay attentive Gliscor, we can do this!" Red assured.
"Darkrai start with dark pulse!" Calem said as his darkrai shot out a dark beam.
"use your tail as a spring and dodge!" called Red. 'only one other person would do that' serena thought as Gliscor dodged the attack. "Now allow your toxic orb to take over!" causing Gliscor to become poisoned, only that Gliscor was being healed by the poison by poison heal.
"Dark void!" Calem yelled. Darkrai show a black ball that was threatening to engulf Gliscor.
Red smirked and said the words that shocks everyone: "take it". The black engulfed Gliscor and then when it wore off, Gliscor was still awake.
"But how?" Calem asked.
"Simple, once poisoned, gliscor can't be put to sleep," explained Red. "Now use toxic!" Gliscor hit its mark and poisoned Darkrai causing Darkrai to lose energy and slow due to exhaustion.
"Unbelievable," whispered a green haired teen.
"Darkrai, hit it with hyper beam!" Calem ordered causing a charge of an orange beam right at Gliscor.
"Charge up knock off and protect yourself!" ordered Red. He had trained his Gliscor to be extremely defensive and bulky. "Now hit it down with knock off!" exclaimed Red as Gliscor hit the Darkrai that was off guard to the ground. "Finish this with earthquake!" causing Gliscor to dive down and punch its claw into the ground causing great ripples that finished off the Darkrai.
Everyone was shocked... "Darkrai is unable to battle so the champion wins!" revealed the ref.
"How did I lose?" asked Calem to himself as he got on his knees exhausted from the battle.
"Because you relied in power over strategy," Red replied walking over as if he had heard the question. "Darkrai is strong, but when you do not think of details, you will go down easily."
"Ugh leave me alone," remarked Calem as he returned Darkrai and left. Everyone had been annoyed at his cocky presence and cheered when he left the party. Obviously it did not got well for him."
