Bruno's Revenge

Bruno is considered the weakest member of the Indigo Elite Four in all games he is in by many and I used for the longest time to as he owns an Onix in all of his appearances and bad movesets, until one day. I opened my SoulSilver cartridge into my 3ds in 2018 to play the game after a five year hiatus. I had saved before fighting Red five years and I got around to beating him. After this I got bored quickly as it was one sided as I had over leveled my team before I had fought him that time ago, the lowest of them being 95 and the highest being 100, making the match too easy. My team consisted of Typhlosion, Lapras, Alakazam, Amorphous, Tyranitar and Noctowl before it happened. I decided to challenge the Elite Four again as I also had completed the Pokedex and had shiny hunted quiet a bit, with Tyranitar being my team's shiny. I went in and things were different. The room where Will usually would be was empty. Same goes with Koga's, Karen's and even Lance's, not noticing minor blood in them. The only person in there place was the weakest Elite Four out there in Gen 1 and 2: Bruno. I was already over-confident having Alakazam and Noctowl on my team. He greeted me saying

"Welcome Champion, the others are out on a "break" so I decided to stay in, it's time to fight and show true power"

The first thing that shocked me was that Bruno had an Alolan Golem.

"How is this possible? Alolan Golem was even in the Gen 4 games, how the **** does Bruno have one?"

The other thing was his Team members had copied my teams levels. He also had Lucario, Haryiama, Hitmonlee, Sawk, surprising me even further and being annoying, and of course, his ace Machamp. I still managed to beat him, not without losing everyone except Typhlosion and Tyranitar, who would faint in a heartbeat with a 4x Fighting Weakness. After this I hear Bruno chuckle, that turns into a mechanical laugh.

"So you won a Pokemon battle against me. I can't believe I thought using my POKEMON to beat you can BEAT you."

He took my only healthy Pokemon and got them out, and preceded to beat them to fainting, or so I thought. The screen soon read

"Typloshion has died"

Soon it was followed by

"Tyranitar has died"

"What the ****... HOW THE **** DID THEY DIE??"

After this Bruno turned to me and said

"Now we can let the FUN BEGIN"

The screen blacked out for a solid minute. When it came back, my character was bleeding in a back-room. I could see the bodies of the other Elite Four members I didn't see earlier and Agatha and Lorelei. Bruno then jumped down from the screen and spoke

"Ha, without your Pokemon YOUR nothing. You call me weak despite HEALING your Pokemon with Full Restores. I guess you will make a nice fit into my collection, no? My exotic Pokemon will have a new friend per say, HAHAHAHA"

The screen blacked out again, showing my body in a closet. The game went to a normal screen. I still beat Red again, but the Elite Four was back to normal. Although when I beat Bruno's regular team, it felt as he turned to watch me go with glazing red eyes. I will never forget what happened that day.
