The match pattern as shown below:1st group - A vs B & C vs D.
2nd group- E vs F & G vs H,
3rd group - I vs J & K vs L,
4th group - M vs N & O vs P
The winner of the two matches of 1st round fight each other and then the winner of the two enters the semi finals against the winner from Group 3, while the winner of Group 2 fight that of group 4.
And then the winner fights against each other for the first position.
Alex is a member of group 1 while Elsa and Julius is of group 2 and group 3 respectively.
So before Alex faces Elsa he has to defeat Julius.
Alex is currently facing someone who was almost twenty years old and had much experience but he didn"t have even an ounce of fear, as he instinctively feels that the person in front of him is not his opponent.
Julian joked about Alex," Hey kid, just give up or my Pokemon would hurt your pokemons too bad. Hey ref, Is it a gift that you sent for me.
h.e.l.l that girl and that boy by her side seem stronger than this brat." He pointed at Elsa and Julius.
Elsa smirked at the words directed towards Alex.
Alex just yawned loudly attracting everyone"s attention,"ahhh. I am sorry. Were you saying something? I wasn"t paying attention. Can you repeat it again?" Alex"s uninterested gaze has amazed everyone who watched the match.
Julian was angered by Alex"s actions,"You brat, I will teach you some manners in your parents" place. It seems they just gave birth to you and forget to teach you..." But before he could say anything, he felt like he was in front of a monster.
" I will stop you right there. If you dare to say anything more, I will make sure you will remember the consequences all your life." Angry whispered so not many heard him, but Julian could hear him perfectly well.
Julian"s back soaked in sweat from his experience under Alex"s glare.

Bill after hearing this, was laughing loudly. Captain Bark was confused why he did that. Looking at his confused face, he said,"That idiot doesn"t know what type of monster he is trying to poke.
He better not anger Alex, or we may have to repair not only the pool but also the entire room. "
Captain Bark sweats on hearing this. He utters," Sir, it cannot be..."
" You don"t know his powers like I do, captain. If he goes all out, I don"t think the cruise s.h.i.+p can withstand his powers. There is a reason he is a monster among monsters."
Back in the field,
The referee who stood on the middle decided to diffuse the matter and said out loud," This is a one on one knockout round between Alex Bart of Floral town and Julian Tye of Nimbasa city.
Please send out your pokemons."
Julian sent out a carracosta and thought," My Pokemon will teach you some manners." he never dare to say it out loud to Alex afraid of him after the last experience. Alex on the other hand releases a beedrill.
Carracosta has dived into the water as soon as he is released while only his back sh.e.l.l and the face is out of water, while
Beedrill on the other hand I flying over the floating platforms in the water pool.
The beedrill that Alex sent out is the one he caught on the second day of his stay after the Pokemon Tide.
Alex caught it as a Weedle and within two week, he evolves into a kakuna. After a month of complete inaction and change, he evolves into a beedrill.
Because of the Alex letting it completely rest during his kakuna stage, the entire energy goes into beedrill growth.
The beedrill is only slightly bigger than most beedrill, but both of his stingers and the stinger on his abdomen are at least twice as big as normal beedrill.
This has given him a pretty fearsome look and not many dares to challenge him.
Alex"s s.h.i.+ny Pidgeot who has fought the psuedo king level Beedrill had taken Beedrill under his wing after evolution and taught him various tricks that his opponent used in the past battle.
Because of this, beedrill has managed to become an advance tier Pokemon.
Alex has seen that carracosta was of the same tier so Beedrill will be enough for the water ground unova pokemon.
In the Audience,
Elsa was laughing at Alex"s choice of Pokemon. She said to Julius," Julius, look at that brute, he doesn"t seem to know that his opponent is a water ground type and a poison bug type, beedrill isn"t something that can last long.
Carracosta has good stamina and can last long in a battle. He can take some good hits, but beedrill cannot. All carracosta needs to do is. .h.i.t beedrill a couple of times and victory will be in his grasp." Elsa inferred.
Julius by her side has similar views but he also knows that if Alex doesn"t have a plan then he wouldn"t be the strongest.
Back to the battlefield,
When the two pokemons are sent out, the referee shouted," Let the battle begin."
As soon as he said that, corracosta dived deep into the pool. But beedrill is airborne and circles around waiting for carracosta to come out of the water.
The first thing Alex taught beedrill was to be patient and when he gets the opportunity, seize it.
This opportunity came when Julian ordered his carracosta,"Water gun".
Carracosta raised his head out of the water and a pressurized shot of water flow out of his mouth.
Alex only said," He might know rest. Don"t take chance and end it in one hit."
The only thing that it hit was a blur of beedrill. Beedrill appeared over his head and hit on the top of his head with " Twineedle."
The attack was a critical hit and Sniper ability did it"s wonder.
Carracosta was hurt by the attack and moaned out in pain. Carracosta wasn"t out in just one hit, he was angry at the bug and raged out.
He has sent hydro pump at the flying bee Pokemon in rage, but every hit is a missing. Seeing that long range attack didn"t work, Julian ordered,"Use aqua jet".
Carracosta covered himself in water and propelled himself at the beedrill. Beedrill wasn"t afraid of the large pokemon rus.h.i.+ng towards him.
Alex saw another opportunity," Hit it"s underbelly."
As soon as ex ordered, Beedrill appears under carracosta"s body and hit his target with a purple hit. It was a poison jab.
This time, beedrill didn"t hold back and so carracosta was pushed back a little and be fell on the platform on his back. It seems carracosta"s luck has run out.
Julian was frantic and orders his Pokemons to stand up, but it is to no avail.
Alex on the other hand is pretty calm and ordered,"End the fight."
And, beedrill did as he was asked.
Beedrill sent the orange colored most powerful normal attack, Hyper Beam at the tortoise Pokemon.
A black smoke arise from the place carracosta last laid, and when it cleared out, it showed that Carracosta has fainted.
Seeing this, Julian returned his pokemon still in shock and utters,"How, how did he win? I have the complete advantage."
Alex hears his words but didn"t say anything and walks away.
In the audience,
Elsa herself was surprised by the fact that Alex won when he was at complete disadvantage. She speaks her doubt to Julius who replies back," He targets the weak point of carracosta. He is waiting for the right moment and attacks him.
He attacks carracosta in the head to irritate him and his real attack started when he hit him in the underbelly.
His hyper beam also targeted the underbelly. Beedrill isn"t strong enough to defeat Carracosta with just a hit, so he made plans to defeat him."
Julius also thought to himself," He isn"t just powerful but patient enough not to rush forward into unfavorable situations. He hasn"t even revealed a hint of his powers in this battle."
After Alex"s match, came Julius and Elsa"s match. They easily beat their opponents in the knockout round with a seaking and tentacool respectively.
