The referee started the fight, "3,2,1, Go"

Gary said, " Alakazam use [Calm Mind] and teleport away as soon as Bastiodon comes within attack range"

Alex, who had already had a plan for this fight, said telepathically, "B2"

While this situation didn't look particularly good, Alex didn't feel that Bastiodon was necessarily at a disadvantage. Especially when everything goes according to his plan.

Bastiodon ran toward Alakazam, as he prepared a move, at the same time.

Both Pokemon finished almost simultaneously (Bastiodon first) and use their respective buff moves. [Calm Mind] & [Rock Polish].

Alakazam used [Teleport] after that and he started preparing a move again.

Bastiodon again ran in the direction of the Alakazam as he prepared [Rock Polish] again.

Now that he's even faster than he was before, it doesn't take him long to run from this side to the other side. Because [Teleport] can't be used while preparing a move (unless one of the two moves is a master rank move), this move is extremely bad against very fast Pokemon.

If a Pokemon is so fast that it can exceed the distance before the time runs out to prepare an Expert rank move, [Teleport]'s effectiveness is greatly reduced.

There's a big difference between a Pokemon that isn't fast enough to get into attack range within the preparation time of an Expert rank move and a Pokemon that isn't fast enough.

Alex, who himself likes to use Gardevoir's [Teleport], knew exactly about this weakness.

He was able to roughly estimate that after this [Rock Polish], Bastiodon is so fast that he arrives within a ranged move range around the time Alakazam needs to prepare an Expert rank move. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝓮𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢

Bastiodon finished a bit earlier this time (the gap gets a bit bigger each time because Bastiodon uses a Master rank move that prepares a bit faster.).

He's using [Rock Polish] again and this normally slow Pokemon was now extremely fast.

Alex thought, 'Fortunately, [Rock Polish] is on the Master rank or the prep time and Bastiodon's speed wouldn't be that good. Hmm, it is time for the next step..'

Gary also realized that it's no longer effective to use [Teleport], but he shows a happy expression as he says, "You made a mistake."

"Alakazam use [Psychic]."

"Now that my Pokemon has already strengthened himself twice, Alakazam won't take many attacks to defeat your Bastiodon. What's the use of speed when [Psychic] can't be dodged with speed alone."

Alex looked at Gary as he said with a smile, "You've been talkative all of a sudden. Didn't you say you were going to ignore me? Has that changed now because you feel superior in this fight?"

Gary wanted to answer Alex's question but looked in the direction of Bastiodon when he saw anything unusual.

Bastiodon used [Toxic] and hit Alakazam who failed to dodge. he finished earlier because he started preparing his moves earlier than Alakazam. Alex times it perfect like that.

Alex looked at Gary as he said with a smile, "if you'd rather have the time to think than provoke me, it probably wouldn't happen."

Although that statement wasn't actually true in this case, in Alex's opinion, it doesn't really matter if it's really true or not. As long as Gary gets mad about it, it has fulfilled its meaning.

Gary, who thought a few seconds ago that he finally had a tactical advantage, suddenly felt the harsh reality.

He clasped his hands together as he controlled his emotions. Gary knew now wasn't the time and he didn't want to lose to Alex just because he got angry and made more mistakes.

Alakazam also finished his move and he immediately uses [Psychic].

Bastiodon was hit and lost more than 1/3 of his HP from the hit. His whole body was covered in sores and it didn't look like he could hold out much longer. Along with his previous injuries, Bastiodon was down to just over 20% of his HP.

Gary, seeing this, smiled as he said, "It seems it doesn't matter."

Alex looked at Gary with a speechless expression, as he thought, 'Why are you always happy so early? can't you wait for it to happen?.'

Gary noticed Alex's odd expression but didn't pay attention to that anymore and he started looking at Bastiodon who was already preparing a move before he was hit by [Psychic].

Bastiodon finished with the move [Rest] and he used it almost immediately. Bastiodon fell to the ground with a sluggish expression as all the wounds on his body began to heal.

Alex telepathically said to Bastiodonm," [Sleep Talk]"

Gary, who saw this, still showed a calm expression, "That's just a bit of a time delay."

Alakazam hit Bastiodon again with a [Psychic] and several new wounds appeared on Bastiodon's body.

Gary said with a serious expression, "Alakazam use [Psychic] two more times and we'll finally defeat these Pokemon."

Alex knew that by the time Bastiodon had to take 2(+0.25) Master rank moves, he wouldn't wake up and Bastiodon wouldn't get a chance to use [Rest] again.

He could only hope that the [Sleep Talk]'s two random Expert rank moves weren't too bad.

Bastiodon finished first using [Sleep Talk] and a white steely beam flew towards Alakazam.

The move was definitely [Flash Cannon] and Alex felt his luck wasn't bad.

Alakazam was hit and after enduring the pain he used [Psychic].

Bastiodon started preparing his move a bit earlier than Alakazam, but Alakazam didn't start much later. Also, Alakazam is preparing a master rank move so it's unclear who will finish their move first.

Both trainers looked at the arena with serious expressions, as they hope their pokemon will finish their move first. But both Pokemon finished almost at the same time and both could use their moves.

Bastiodon was hit by [Psychic] for the third time, after using [Rest] and he fell to the ground unconscious.

Alakazam was simultaneously hit by a dense poison projectile. This wasn't the first time he'd been hit with a move like this in this fight either.

Alex, seeing that this move is [Toxic], Alex show on an unhappy expression as he thought, "That's a bit unlucky."
