Hopefully its three.
Stage 1: Boat rowing [Pikachu, Axew, Pansage, Sawk]
Stage 2: Racing to the base of the tower. [Swadloon, Excadrill, Crustle, Zebstrika]
Stage 3: Going up to the top via the sides. [Tranquill, Emolga, Stunfisk, "Flying Pokemon"]
During Stage 1: Close race.
During Stage 2: Ash uses Swadloon's String Shot to swing from tree to tree. Iris hold on to Excadrill using Drill Run. Cilan could be the comic relief with Crustle. Stephan could ride on Zebstrika.
During Stage 3: The flying pokemon have to help them get through obstacles or something.
This looks incredibly awesome! In my somewhat tweaked idea, each participant has to switch pokemon after a stage.
Stage 1: Pokemonwise, I completely agree.
- Stephan in first place: Sawk is obviously stronger then the rest.
- Cilan is second: Bulletseed/SolarBeam powered boat.
- Ash is third: Pikachu is stronger then Axew, but hasn't got anything that would propel them forward as Bullet Seed could.
- Iris is fourth: Axew has the least muscle strength to make the difference.
Stage 2: I would go with Iris and Emolga here.
- Stephan still in first place: Zebstrika is by far the fastest means of transportation.
- Ash is second: Ash makes good ground with the vine swinging, but is still far behind Stephan.
- Iris is third: She does the same as Ash, and Emolga glides along, she's third because she had more ground to catch up from stage 1.
- Cilan is last, because he had to switch and both Crustle and Stunfisk are slow as heck.
Stage 3: Stuff goes epicly wrong here:
- Stephan uses Zweilous, Ash uses Unfezant, Iris uses Excadrill and Cilan uses Stunfisk.
- Stuff goes wrong when Stephan reaches the tower ahead of everybody. He only needs to get to the top so he calls out Zweilous to fly to the top with.
- Ash catches up and flies up while holding on to Unfezant's legs. He catches up to Stephan.
- Zweilous doesn't like this and evolves out of rage.
- Stephan falls off Hydreigon, but sends out Mandibuzz in order to catch him during his fall.
- After evolving, Hydreigon starts to rage and pick a fight with Ash and Unfezant.
- Ash also falls, but Stephan's Mandibuzz also saves him.
- Iris arrives, and can't believe what she is seeing.
- Iris faints of experiencing pure fangasm.
- In the air, Hydreigon is still fighting with Unfezant.
- Stephan can't recall Hydreigon because it is up too high, and tells his Mandibuzz to try and bring it down a bit.
- Ash sends out Swadloon and tells it to go up with Mandibuzz and use String Shot on the raging dragon to restrict its movements.
- All pokemon fight bravely, but when the tough gets going, and they're all about to fall down empty, Swadloon begins to glow in Mandibuzz's claws.
- Swadloon evolves and String Shots to Hydreigon's back.
- Hydreigon tries to get Leavanny off, but it holds on with String Shot.
- Leavanny starts to wrap up Hydreigon's wings and slashes into it with X-scissor, causing the dragon to fall down to the ground.
- Stephan recalls Hydreigon and is thereby disqualified, but still wants to race Ash to the top of the tower.
- Ash, Stephan and Iris all run to the staircase, but when they reach it they're shocked by stepping on Stunfisk.
- Cilan waves from the top, and Stunfisk flies up.
- Cilan wins this race, to the confusion of all others.
But hey, we got an epic battle!
