I'll choose my three Pokemon and you can write the battle. Try to make it good. "Where could he be?" Mike asked. Then he saw Gads suddenly in the water. "Oh, there he is. Not the most triumphant entrance in Pokemon League history." Mike said. "I heard that dragon, water, and flying Pokemon have the best advantage on this field. First up will be Dragonair, then Kabutops if Dragonair faints, and then I'll slice him up with Scyther." Mike said to himself. Gads was preparing his first Pokemon. "I refuse to lose so here's my clue: Dragonair, I choose you!" Mike shouts in his battle statement. TBC Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
