It was early in the morning when Chase and Elaine were battling it out for ownership of the Viridian Gym. The battle had been going on for almost ten minutes, and they were down to only one Pokémon each. Chase's Blaziken and Elaine's Metagross.
Blaziken brought a Fire Punch down on the Steel Type's head, causing it to stagger.
