Dennis stomped his foot on the ground, and N glanced away in shame.
Dennis: "Son I am disappoint."
N: "Aww, but dad..."
Dennis: "Shut up! You stupid ignorant foolish moronic unintelligent idiot!"
"Hey, that isn't very-"
Dennis: "Nice?! I'll tell you what isn't nice! It took me 19 years to make this N! It was supposed to do what I told it and use the legendary Pokemon under MY command! But nooo, you lost to the Moop, didn't you!?"
N: "Aww, but-"
Dennis: "No buts, mister! You are grounded!"
N: "Oh?"
Dennis: "Into hamburger meat!"
N: "Oh..."
Dennis: "I want a full refund! I want it I want it I want it Mommy I want it!"
"Throwing a temper tantrum isn't going to help, Dennis."
He growled at this, before resuming his insult-N parade.
Dennis: "Anyway, son, I forgive you. After all, I love you still. Aaah! Wrong! As if! LOOK BOY!"
N turned to face him.
Dennis: "Now you have two options here. You leave, and we pretend this whole thing never happened, or I kill you here because you're ugly and I hate you. Which do you want?"
N: "The... first one?"
Dennis: "Ha! Trick question! You never had that choice! Ha ha!"
N sat on the ground and moped.
Dennis: "And you!"
"Me?"
Dennis: "I should have dealt with you earlier! Now you know too much, so you have to die!"
"Can't we talk this out?"
Dennis: "No! I don't talk things out with Moops!"
Alder and Cheren entered.
Cheren: "Wait, Dennis was a villain the entire time?! Say it ain't so!!"
Dennis: "Yes! I was secretly evil! And now only I will command Pokemon!"
Alder: "You fool! That's a ridiculous idea!"
Dennis: "Is it? IS IT, ALDER?!"
Alder: "Uh, yeah. It is."
Dennis: "Oh. Well, who cares what you think?!"
"I do."
Dennis: "Shut up. This is MY show!"
N: "Anthony!"
He healed my Pokemon.
Dennis: "Hey! No fair! I wanted to fight him with his weakened team! Nonono!"
"So we ARE fighting, then?"
Dennis: "Of course! Chorus, get in here!"
The Shadow Triad darted in and stood at the sides of the arena.
Final final battle!
Anthony vs. Dennis
Dennis: "This shall be our final battle!"
"It's our FIRST battle!"
Dennis: "So? It's our first and last!"
He led with a nasty-looking Cofagrigus, while I led with Mamoswine. Mamoswine used Earthquake.
Dennis: "I was expecting exactly that kind of move!"
Cofagrigus used Toxic, poisoning Mamoswine. I casually used an Antidote on him while Cofagrigus wasted a turn using Protect. I eventually goaded Dennis into wasting a Full Restore on Cofagrigus, and defeated it with little damage to Mamoswine.
Dennis: "Fine then! I'm bringing out the big guns now!"
He sent out Hydreigon.
Dennis: "Three heads of pure destruction and malice! Like me!"
"You only have one head."
Dennis: "THAT'S WHAT YOU THINK!"
Mamoswine got the first strike with Ice Shard, and dodged Hydreigon's Fire Blast. I struck with Ice Shard again, and Mamoswine dodged Fire Blast yet again.
Dennis: "That isn't fair!"
"Should have gone with Flamethrower!"
Mamoswine struck with Ice Shard again, and Hydreigon missed with Focus Blast.
Dennis: "HYDREIGON, ARE YOU BLIND?!"
Mamoswine finished it off.
Dennis: "WHAT?! My precious Hydreigon!! That's it! Get her, Seismitoad! Use-"
Seismitoad was defeated by a single Leaf Storm.
"This is kinda easy."
Dennis: "Oh, yeah?!"
He sent out a Bisharp.
Dennis: "I'm totally original with this one! It's not like one of the Elite Four used a Bisharp as his strongest Pokemon!"
Lucario took out the Bisharp in one hit with a Force Palm.
Dennis: "Stop that! Let me use my Pokemon!!"
He sent out Bouffalant, while I sent out Honchkrow. Honchkrow successfully paralyzed the Bouffalant but fell to a Head Charge.
Dennis: "Ha HA!"
"It's still five on two."
All of a sudden the Shadow Triad began chanting.
Shadow Triad: "Deeeeennissss. Deeeeennissss."
"So that's why they're here! To chant your name."
Dennis twitched and looked at the Shadow Triad, who continued.
I sent Exeggutor back out, who took Bouffalant out with Leaf Storm.
Dennis: "That's it! time for my final Pokemon! And it has no weak!"
He sent out an Eelektross. I sent out Typhlosion. They fought, and Eelektross defeated Typhlosion, but not without taking damage.
I sent out Omastar.
Dennis: "Hahaha! Look, she thinks Water types can fight Electric types!"
Eelektross used Wild Charge on Omastar, dealing calamitous damage but not defeating it.
Dennis: "So! What are you gonna do now, foolish idiot?"
Clyde: "So that's it, then! Go on to the Pokemon League, and remember, Anthony: Always, always trust in the power of water!"
"Omastar, use Surf."
Omastar created a massive wave, washing Eelektross against the wall and soaking Dennis. Eelektross attempted to stand back up, but collapsed and the glowing marks on its body ceased to glow.
Dennis: "My plans! Trashed! My calculations! For naught! My awesome cobalt crown! Didn't even start production!"
"Too bad!"
Dennis: "Nonono! I wanted to win! Waaaah! Waaaah! Let me win!"
Alder: "No."
Dennis: "But I'm perfect!! I made Team Plasmoron! I am the perfect ruler of a perfect new world! Because I'm perfect!"
Alder: "So N, how are you?"
Dennis: "HEY! I'M STILL RELEVANT HERE! TALK TO MEEEEE!"
"Shut up, Dennis."
Dennis: "NOOOOOOOO! MY NAME'S! NOT! DENNIS!!!!!!!"
Cheren: "Come on, Alder, let's take Dennis away to the authorities."
They grabbed Dennis's arms and dragged him away, him throwing a fit the entire way.
N: "Anthony. Can we talk?"
"Sure."
N: "Remember back in Accumula, when Cheren told me I talk too quickly?"
"Yes?"
N: "Back then, your Pokemon said it liked you. I thought it was kinda creepy. But now I see... uh... something. I don't know what. This whole story has been sorta lost on me."
"Oh."
N: "So... I guess that's it. Maybe I'll see you again another time."
He sent out Zekrom and climbed on its back.
N: "Away, Zappy, away!"
He took off through the Zekrom-shaped hole in the wall, soaring off into the distance.
"And so that settles that."
I walked away, toward the exit of the castle. Suddenly I became aware of a discomfort I had forgotten about.
"Huh, forgot I still had these."
I pulled Cheren's glasses out and put them in my pocket. I then resumed my walk.
"I really need to stop talking to myself, exposition be darned."
