The Quest for the Legends

Chapter 52: The League Finals is up. Enjoy.

Thanks go to opaltiger for beta-reading it. As I've been saying, chapter 53 is likely to be quick, so expect it soon.

Yay! it is finally here!

… and, yet again, my pre-chapter speculations didn't come true. ah well. Still an awesome chapter! =D Top 5 all time chapters, even.

Is Sciztwo's crabhammer a reference to that one fanfic from… PFU, I think it was, where somebody actually had a scizor that used crabhammer (and, of course, exploding charizard)?

It is. I just couldn't resist the temptation to put that in.

Although I think the exploding Charizard was in a different, older fic; I believe the Crabhammering Scizor was in something about a tournament where it used it to beat Steelix, while the exploding Charizard was (I think) used to escape from a Haunter (or many) in something involving breaking into a Team Rocket lab. I could be wrong.

Most definitly my faverite chapter. Ever. If you'll excuse, I'll be in the bathroom, wiping the tears off my glasses.

(Shut up. That was ridiculously mean, Butterfree. May should strode across the arena and puched Taylor in the face.)

SCYTHER YOU ARE SO RIGHT.

I wanted May to lose, but NOT TO A BASTARD LIKE TAYLOR!

"Not…Weak!"

Legendary line. But speech therapy… maybe, Tyranitar.

Robert Witham is officially awesome.

Geese, the more I think about it, the more I just want to punch him into oblivion!

Darn it, Butterfree. You toss my emotions around like a ragdoll. Not that I'm the most emtionally sound person (you know that very well), but you are an exceptionally skilled writer. A thirteen year old's judgement might not be a lot to you, but I definitly see a great future for you.

Oh, and by the by, I just realized you never told me your shirt size

I agree, scyther. I do not really care for May, but this chapter made me really interested to see how she ends up next chapter, poor girl.

You are a very talented writer, Butterfree, to get me to care wholeheartedly about a character I usually don't care about. I agree that you have a great future ahead of you.

Really? I love May, probably to the point where she's my favorite character. It's funny when she's tries to express emotion that isn't anger, and the fact that broke into a house and assulted a police officer at the age of nine makes me want to hug her. I could go on, but I'm afraid I've gotten off topic.

This chapter is the definition of epic, to the point that it's spurred me on to comment when I haven't done so in…years.

Tyranitar is probably going to go to one of two extremes - either crumble under pressure and request to not battle, or to be released, or he'll get back up and be the best fighter ever.

Taylor should be beaten to death by his own clones >.>

DIE TAYLOR DIE! I've never cried about May… I did a little here. (I usually cry when I read TFoaL, when Pearl gets killed. Poor Stormblade.) May seems better now… Still, I was expecting Tyranitar to say something more senseful. Then after the "I'M NOT WEAK" part I thought he was going to get up and kick Mewtwo^2's ass.

DGF: Butterfree didn't tell you her shirt size, but at least I told you mine!

Has Taylor always been such an oblivious jerk? o_o;;

^Huh? What'd he do that was so oblivious and jerky this chapter? O_o He honestly didn't do anything but battle.

Speaking of Taylor, I just went and modified his bio a little. Mostly I added a paragraph on his participation in the League, but I also tweaked a lot of the rest to be clearer and less repetitive.

Aw, this chapter made me feel so sad for Tyranitar D: Coincidentally, I have Tyranitar for the spammifier.

Great chapter, by the way.

I must say that that was direct cheating of nature, Psycic doesn't affect Dark types! It could be a 99999 Sp.Attack Psycic type using a 250 base power special Psycic move against a 1 Sp.Deffence Dark Type and still not affect! Taylor is a cheat!!!!

Nice chapter by the way, but Taylor's an even bigger cheater now.

Did I mention that Taylor's a cheat?

(You misspelled "stand"—as in trainer stand—as "staind", Butterfree.) Yes, Robert Witham is officially awesome, and Taylor is a cheat, but it still seems more realistic that he won anyway.

Tyranitar is awesome too. I officially love him.

Umm just noticed this buut… Sciztwo uses 5 moves :P just saying..
