McBusted's Pokémon Adventures Part 14 - Busted Vs McFly - The Ultimate Pokémon Showdown

 Busted Vs McFly - The Ultimate Pokémon Showdown

Here is the final part of my fan fiction for two of my favourite boy bands McFly and Busted in their super group McBusted touring around the world of Pokémon where both bands top off their tour with a Pokémon battle. 

Two boy bands McFly and Busted have been touring throughout many Pokémon regions as their supergroup McBusted, catching and raising Pokémon, meeting fans, making new friends and saving the world, creating many memories together throughout.

But having reached the final part of their tour in Pasio, they set up a special show where they are doing something that they have never done before throughout their tour: a Pokémon battle. It’s time to see which band is the best at Pokémon battling, using everything they have learned and experienced.

Both bands were arriving at the stadium with the McFly boys Danny Jones, Tom Flecther, Dougie Poynter and Harry coming from the left side and the Busted boys James Bourne, Charlie Simpson and Matt Wills entering from the right side of the stadium. Many fans and trainers including their friend Dominic were watching from the audience with the excitement and anticipation filling in the air.

“Well, it all comes down to this” said Tom with his eyes locked onto the Busted boys. “We may have been touring together but we aren’t pulling any punches!” said Charlie who was equally determined to win.  “Your Pokémon are going to get busted!” said Danny Jones with a playful grin spreading across his face. “Oh yeah? We’ll be the ones swatting your Pokémon like files!” said James Bourne who shot back with his eyes narrowing with mock seriousness. “Prepare to have your team battered and bruised!” said Dougie mockingly. “No, we’ll be the ones sweeping your team!” said Matt. “You’ll be the loser kids here while we’ll be the winners who’ll take it all!” taunted Harry. The crowd were amused at their competitive banter.

The rules involves each of the band members using two of their Pokémon plus one extra for one on one battles and are permitted to use Mega Evoultion, a Z-Move, Sync Move, Dynamax and Terallization (with the stadium designed to utilize all of them).

The battle started with Danny sending out his Solrock, the meteorite Pokémon that resembled the sun. “With my Solrock, it’ll be a walk in the park, just like my song Walk in the Sun!” said Danny who couldn’t resist the pun. James sends out the Psychic pig-like Pokémon Grumpig. “Pigs can fly, just like with our reunion and how we’ll win this!” said James.

“Alright Solrock, let’s start the battle using Stealth Rock!” called Danny with determination. Solrock releases small, sharp rocks onto the ground. “You think that’s going to win? Grumpig, fire your Signal Beam!” and Grumpig fired a rainbow-coloured beam towards Solrock. “Quick Solrock, counter it by charging in with your Flare Blitz!” commanded Danny.

Solrock surrounded itself in flames and charged into Signal Beam with the flames bouncing off the move which would have been super effective against Solrock and headed straight towards Grumpig who managed to resist the attack with its ability Thick Fat that reduces damage from Fire and Ice type moves.

“Ha! Abilities are everything pal!” said James brashly with Grumpig using this chance to repel Solrock by carrying it using Psychic, sending it into the wall. But Danny refused to go down just yet. “We’re just getting starting heating things up!” said Danny with Solrock firing its Stone Edge. The sharp pointy rocks hit Grumpig, dealing heavy damage which knocked it out.

“Alright! That’s our first win for us!” cheered Danny with his bandmates high-fiving and hugging him. But Busted maintained their composure as the battle had only just begun. “You did your best Grumpig” said James as he returned his Pokémon. “Leave this one to me James” said Matt and he sent out his Lunatone, the moon-counterpart to Solrock as said by Dougie “And now we have the battle of the sun and the moon. How fitting” said Dougie.

Upon switching in, Lunatone got hit by the Stealth Rocks. “Ha! Ha! How do you like that?” laughed Danny. “In the name of the moon, we shall punish you! Lunatone, use Stealth Rocks!” said Matt and his Lunatone set up the rock traps. “Don’t think copying our strategy is going to let you win!” said Danny. “Well I have a trick of my own” said Matt and his Lunatone used Hypnosis which lures Solrock into a spell, causing it to fall asleep. “Oh no! Wake up!” cried Danny. “We got you now! Lunatone, give them your Moonblast!” said Matt and Lunatone finished off Solrock by firing its moon-like sphere attack.

“And that’s our first win to us Busted!” cheered Matt. His bandmates were high-fiving and embracing him too. “Alright Tom, you’re up!” said Danny. “I got this one in the bag! Go Beheeyem!” said Tom and he sent out his alien-like Pokémon. Just like with Lunatone, Beheeyem also got hit by the Stealth Rocks. “Now who’s laughing?!” bragged Matt. “We’ll just have to keep on fighting regardless of the battle-field” said Tom keeping his cool.

Beheeyem had trouble keeping up with Lunatone’s levitating, swifter movements who uses Psychic to repel Beheeyem’s Energy Balls. “Think McFly, how you catch up to us?!” said Matt mockingly. “We have our trick up our sleeve! Beheeyem, use Trick Room!” said Tom and Beheeyem surrounded the battlefield with blue, transparent walls.

This made Beheeyem faster, dodging Lunatone’s Moonblasts and hitting it with Energy Ball which was a direct hit, knocking out Lunatone with it being super effective. “And I declare this win for Danny and his Solrock!” said Tom which made Danny blush. “It’s my turn now! Go Musharna!” said Charlie, sending out his sleeping Tapir-like Pokémon.

After it took some damage from Stealth Rocks, Charlie told Musharna to use Calm Mind which boosted its Special Attack and Special Defense. Tom commanded Beheeyem to move Musharna around using Psychic. Charlie simply told Musharna to keep on using Calm Mind. “So you’re just going to sit there?  “Fine, we’ll simply keep on attacking!” said Tom with Beheeyem firing multiple Energy Balls. “That’s when you lost your guard; Musharna, unleash your Stored Power!” and Musharna unleashed its Stored Power that became stronger with the Calm Mind boosts, dealing huge damage to Beheeyem. “Now I didn’t see that coming!” called Tom. “Bet you’re not expecting that either!” said Charlie, activating his Sync Move on Musharna which he names it 'Into the Year 3000 Psychic', finishing off Beheeyem.

“Well, that’s me out” said Tom, returning his Beheeyem. He then said to Dougie “It’s your turn now.” “Leave it to me and my blob” said Dougie who sends out his Reuniclus. Because of its ability Magic Guard, Reuniclus took no damage from the Stealth Rocks. It also took advantage of Trick Room still activated, dodging Musharna’s Dazzling Gleam to set up its own Calm Minds and fire its Shadow Balls.

“We can make use of Trick Room too!” said Charlie with Musharna moving quickly as well, firing its Stored Power although it did get hit by some Shadow Balls which was not only super effective but it also lowered its Special Defense. “You are already defeated” said Dougie and Reuniclus held Musharna using Psychic and slammed it onto the floor, knocking it out.

“Good job Musharna, have a good rest” said Charlie, returning it to its Pokeball. “You better let it rest as Musharna gets really grumpy when you give it a rude awakening” said Dougie. “You are good with memorising Pokedex entries I’ll give you that but obviously, you’ll be outta your league! Go Huntail!” said James, sending out his Viperfish Pokémon.

Reuniclus was still able to outrun Huntail with Trick Room, dodging its Crunch which would have been super effective and hitting it hard in return using Psychic. “Guess you’ll be the loser kids now!” taunted Dougie. But James had an idea. “Would a loser think of this?” said James and he ordered Huntail to slam its tail using Aqua Tail on the wall, shattering Trick Room. Dougie was gobsmacked with this.

“I say it’s time to get out of our shell. Huntail, use Shell Smash!” said James. Using the move has lowered Huntail’s Defense and Special Defense but has raised its Attack, Special Attack and Speed. This has made Huntail stronger, slamming down Reuniclus using Aqua Tail and then biting it using Crunch, defeating Reuniclus. “And looks like you’re its snack!” said James triumphantly.

“Alright, it’s time for me to shine with my Party Girl!” said Harry, sending out his Goth-like Pokémon Gothitelle. With Gothitelle getting hit by the Stealth Rocks, Harry knows that he has to get rid of the Stealth Rocks. “Gothitelle, use Trick on the Stealth Rocks!” said Harry and Gothitelle used its telekinesis to move the Stealth Rocks from their side towards Busted’s side.

“But I could have sworn that Trick can only be used on held items!” exclaimed James who did not expect that. “It’s what I’ve been training my Gothitelle to do who has many other tricks such as this!” said Harry and Gothitelle fired its Thunderbolt, dealing super effective damage. Huntail was badly hurt. “Uh oh, I better recall it just like reeling in the line!” said James who tried to switch out his Huntail but failed. “There is nowhere left to run with Gothitelle’s Shadow Tag ability. For that, I say it’s time for our Sync Move!” said Harry, activating Gothitelle’s Sync Move which resembled a stronger version of Psychic which he calls it 'Galaxy Defender Psychic', finishing off Huntail.

Each of the band members has one win each although the McFly Boys were ahead of them. “We’re way ahead of you!” boasted Harry. “Just wait until we catch up! Go Scolipede” said Matt, sending out his huge centipede-like Pokémon. It was hurt by the Stealth Rocks but Matt had an idea to remove the Stealth Rocks as inspired by Harry. “Scolipede, slam your Megahorn onto the ground!” said Matt. “What? You’re giving up already?” said Harry. “Guess again!” said Matt and Scolipede slammed its two antenna-like horns onto the ground which unearthed the Stealth Rocks, much to Harry’s surprise. 

“You see that? I’ve learned that trick from you!” said Matt. “Well we’re still going to win! Gothitelle, use Psychic!” said Harry but Scolipede dodged the attack using its ability Speed Boost which made it faster every turn. “Now finish this with Megahorn!” said Matt and Scolipede slammed its horns on Gothitelle, dealing super effective damage which knocked it out.

“Bah! That was fixed I tell you!” cried Harry who doesn’t like to lose. “Don’t worry Mush, I’ll handle this. Go Gorebyss!” said Danny (while looking at Harry directly) who sends out his pink Snipe Eel-like Pokémon. Because Scolipede was faster due to Speed Boost, Gorebyss had trouble aiming its powerful attacks including Hydro Pump and Psychic while Scolipede hit it hard with its Megahorn. “And you guys thought you had backed us into a corner!” bragged James. “My Scolipede shall turn things around!” taunted Matt. “If only I could touch the rain” said Danny who was under pressure (also referring to the fact that his Gorebyss' ability is Swift Swim). He decided to withdraw his Gorebyss for now.

“Leave it to me Mush” said Harry reassuring Danny as he gazed into his eyes and sent out his pink Mola Mola-like Pokémon Alomomola. As Matt ordered Scolipede to jab Alomomola using Poison Jab, Harry ordered Alomomola to fire its Scald directly at Scolipede. “Oh no, you aren’t burning my Pokémon!” said Matt who withdrew his Scolipede, not wanting to take a chance of Scolipede getting burned by Scald.

“I shall win this with the perfect life form. Go Relicanth!” said Charlie, sending out his Water/Rock type that resembled a Coelacanth. "Fascinating to use a Pokemon based on a living fossil” said Dougie. “And now, feast your eyes on this! Use Head Smash!” said Charlie and Relicanth charged into Alomomola using Head Smash, hitting it hard. “With its ability Rock Head, it can use Head Smash as many times as it wants without getting recoil damage!” bragged Charlie. “You sure know how it uses its abilities” said Tom. “And so do we! Alomomola, use Wish!” said Harry.

After Alomomola used Wish, Charlie told Relicanth to use Head Smash once again. Alomomola was getting weakened but Harry had planned to switch it out. “Alomomola, get out of there using Flip Turn!” called Harry. “And now we’re back in action!” said Danny who sends out his Gorebyss once again. It received the healing effect from Alomomola’s Wish, restoring Gorebyss’ health. “And this is what you call teamwork! Thanks for that Mush!” said Danny who smiled with appreciation, making Harry blush.

“Well McFly, you all know how to work well as a team” said James. “You got that right! We work together to make sure that everyone has a good time with our show and to overcome anything just like our Pokémon battles! Gorebyss, use Shell Smash!” said Danny and Gorebyss used the move that lowered its defensives but raised its offensives.  “And so do we! Keep on Head Smashing!” said Charlie and Relicanth repeated its Head Smash, only for Gorebyss to dodge the move. “Gorebyss, now use Hydro Pump!” said Danny. “Quick Relicanth, counter it with Waterfall!” called Charlie. Relicanth tried to charge into the powerful spraying water but it was too much for it and took damage from it. “Now finish it with Psychic!” said Danny and Gorebyss took it down. “If that was real life, this would be gruesome, considering how Gorebyss eats its prey” said Dougie who casually added that in, much to the McFly boy’s disgust.

Charlie withdraws his Relicanth, having to be backed into the corner. “Don’t worry Charlie, I’ll turn this around” said Matt giving Charlie some reassurance. Charlie nodded, grateful for Matt’s support who sent out his Scolipede. Gorebyss was able to match Scolipede’s speed with the aforementioned Shell Smash boosts, hitting hard with Psychic for super effective damage but Scolipede was still able to outrun it with Speed Boost, taking it down with Megahorn. “Good job Gorebyss, you deserve a rest” said Danny.

“I’ll be the one to finish this as quickly as possible!” said Harry, sending out his Alomomola back into the battle. With its ability Regenerator, Alomomola restored it's health that it had sustained from the previous battle. Despite this, Alomomola had trouble keeping up with Scolipede’s Speed, dodging its Scald and Flip Turn (which was countered by Scolipede using Aqua Tail which caused Alomomola to be reflected as commanded by Matt) while prodding it using Poison Jab. “Now finish it!” said Matt and Scolipede struck Alomomola hard using Megahorn, knocking it out.

“How is that fair?!” exclaimed Harry in frustration. “Looks like you’re the one who’ll hard carry us Matt!” said James. “Yeah, no one can stop my Scolipede once it gets going!” said Matt. They both look directly at each other with them backing each other up. Tom kept his cool and said “Leave it to me; go Veluza!” said Tom, sending out his hake fish-like Pokémon with pointy purple coloured fins. ““And once again, we have too much Water. Also, the flesh that is supposed to discard to make itself faster is supposed to be delicious” said Dougie, casually referring to Veluza’s Pokedex entries. “Sounds like something that we along with Matt would have for our Bush Tucker trial” said Danny, taking part in their commentary.

“You got that right Danny Boy though I have a question for you Tom; what makes you think that you would win using Veluza before Scolipede takes a bite out of it? It’s a double-edged sword match-up after all!” said Matt. “Funny you should ask but apparently, the name Veluza is a combination of the Spanish words meaning fast and hake” said Tom showing his geeky side.

He also got out a Tera Orb. “I’ve caught mine back in Paldea which is where Terastallization originated which I shall use here and now!” said Tom, charging up with Tera Orb which changed Veluza’s Water and Psychic type into a Fighting type. This in turn gives it a resistance against Scolipede’s Megahorn. “Very clever here Tom!” said Matt. “I thank you and this is how Veluza becomes faster! Veluza, use Fillet Away!” said Tom and his hake fish discarded part of its flesh which exposed its bone-like body while becoming faster and stronger.

Veluza was able to match Scolipede’s speed, hitting hard using Psycho Cut and Aqua Cutter with both moves boosted by its ability Sharpness. “Go and get them Tom!” cheered Harry as Veluza was wearing it down. Charlie was getting nervous and said “Matt, you better stop them quickly!” “Don’t worry, I got this one in the bag!” said Matt who quickly came up with a plan, telling Scolipede to use Earthquake which helped to hinder Veluza’s movements with the ground shaking underneath. “Don’t let this stop you Veluza!” called Tom and it charged into Scolipede using Aqua Jet. “You’re right where I wanted you! Scolipede, use Poison Jab!” called Matt and Scolipede prodded Veluza using Poison Jab. Due to the HP loss caused by Fillet Away, Veluza was taken out.

“Vaultin’ Veluza!” cried Tom. “You think you had an ace in the hole? Looks like we’ll the ones sweeping this battle!” said James brashly. “That’s right, it all comes down to this” said Matt with confidence. “I thought we had this for sure” said Danny getting anxious with both bands are now even but McFly are backing into a corner when they seemingly had the advantage. “It’s not over yet with me breaking out from our verge of defeat. Go Centiskorch!” said Dougie, sending out his fire centipede.

“Ah, both of these centipedes are supposed to have a rivalry with each other” said James intrigued with Dougie’s choice. “You got that right James but I have a secret weapon” said Dougie who returned Centiskorch and got out his Dynamax band. “Let’s make it a big one shall we?” said Dougie as his Pokeball got bigger, tossing it into the air which revealed Centiskorch as its Gigantamax Form. “Alright Dougie!” cheered Danny. “Now put them into their place!” said Harry. “Yeah, they shall fry!” said Dougie with his Gigantamax Centiskorch unleashing its G-Max Centiferno.

Scolipede used its Speed to dodge the incoming massive ball of fire which would have been super effective but only barely with it sustaining a lot of damage from the previous battle that crippled its movements. Matt told Scolipede to charge in using Aqua Tail. “No you don’t!” said Dougie with Gigantamax Centiskorch firing its Max Flutterby with the green butterfly shape like projectiles pushing Scolipede back.

“You all can’t beat the heat!” called Tom. “We’re losing momentum! We gotta finish this quick!” cried Charlie. “Just what I was saving for” said Matt who got out his Z Ring. He used it to activate Scolipede’s Buginium Z. “If you want power, then we’ll give you one!” said Matt with Scolipede using its Z Move Savage Spin-Out, capturing Gigantamax Centiskorch with its silk despite its large size. “Well then, there’s overkill like no overkill!” said Dougie and Gigantamax Centiskorch countered it using G-Max Centiferno.

Both moves combined created a powerful explosion upon impact, causing a large smoke to appear, covering the whole arena. Once the smoke cleared, it turned out that not only Centiskroch revert back to its normal size but both Centipedes were knocked out, resulting a tie. “You’re got to be kidding me!” cried Matt. “Now that was too much power” said Dougie dryly.

“Well, I guess we’re both evenly matched” said Charlie. “But there can only be one winner” insisted Harry. “Which is why we saved this one for last!” said Danny, sending out the shiny Gallade that travelled with them throughout their Pokémon tour. “Of course, here is our trump card!” said James who sends out the shiny Gardevoir who has been on their side during the tour. Both Pokémon turned at their respective bands, ready to win this, giving it their all for them and then at each other sincerely as their way to wish each other good luck.

“Well Danny, let’s say we end this decisive battle on a high note?” asked James, getting out his guitar that has a keystone attached. Danny did the same thing and said “My thoughts exactly; we shall show our power and bond combined with Mega Evolution!” said Danny as both of them pressed the keystones on their guitars to Mega Evolve Gallade and Gardevoir respectively. “Go for it Danny, win this for us!” cheered Tom. “You can do it James. Give us a win!” cheered Matt. Both Danny and James’ eyes locked in a fierce yet thrilling standoff with respect and a hint of admiration.

Both sides weren’t holding back with Mega Gallade slicing through Mega Gardevoir’s attacks including Moonblast and Hyper Voice with his blade-like arms and Mega Gardevoir gracefully dodging Mega Gallade’s attacks including Close Combat and Leaf Blade as she predicted his movements. “Go on Gallade, get out there and win this!” called Harry. “You can do it Gardevoir!” cheered Matt.

“Gardevoir, dazzle them with your Lumina Crash!” said James and Mega Gardevoir fired a beam of light made out of Psychic power towards Gallade. “Gallade, counter that move with Psyblade and then strike close to Gardevoir at close range using Knock Off!” called Danny. Gallade followed Danny’s instruction as he sliced through the move and then quickly got close to Gardevoir, striking her down.

“Don’t give up now Gardevoir!” called Charlie as Gardevoir managed to stand up. She still had the energy to win this for the Busted boys. “Alright Gardevoir, let’s show them what you’re made of and unleash your Hyper Voice!” said James and Gardevoir stunned Gallade using her Hyper Voice. James then used this chance to command Gardevoir to fire her Moonblast towards Gallade.

It was looking bad for the McFly boys with Gallade taking a lot of damage with two super-effective hits as he was struggling to remain standing. Danny was getting tensed with his back against the wall. But his bandmates helped out with their moral support. “We believe in you Gallade!” cheered Dougie. “It’s not over until it's over!” called Tom.

This has helped Gallade to gain the courage to win this for them and Danny to regain his composure. “Alright Gallade, we believe in you! Let’s give it our all with your Psyblade!” called Danny. By combining their belief in him and everything he has, Gallade charges towards Gardevoir. “Gardevoir, stop them with your Lumina Crash!” said James. With their belief and faith in her, Gardevoir fired her Lumina Crash towards Gallade.

He use Psyblade to cut right through the incoming beam of light, using his determination and might to strike through Gardevoir with a powerful impact, strong enough to deal huge damage to Gardevoir to knock her down, making it a decisive blow. Cheers were erupting throughout the crowd as Danny cheered in triumphant and Tom, Dougie and Harry celebrated with him with their cheers, high-fives and hugs. “We are the winners that take it all!” cheered Danny.

As Gallade and Gardevoir reverted from their Mega Evolutions, Gallade reached out his arm to gently pick Gardevoir up like a gentleman. They were both happy to give it their all for their masters and to test each other’s strength. The Busted boys went over to Gardevoir with James saying “Thank you. You did your best.” They then approached the McFly boys, shaking their hands with both bands showing good sportsmen ship.

“Well Danny, you were a worthy opponent. You and the other McFly boys are proven to be Pokémon masters” said James with a wide grin and he shook Danny’s hand. “You and the other Busted boys have given us a challenge that gets us pumped which makes you all Pokémon masters too. For that, I thank you. We should definitely do this again” said Danny who was still feeling the adrenaline from the battle flowing through his veins and his grin matches James'. Regardless if they’re close friends or friendly rivals and who have won or lost, they all had fun and all agreed that the amazing wonders of Pokémon have brought them together.

Afterwards, they topped off their Pokémon tour on a high note with a special show featuring the McBusted boys performing the songs that they have learned or come up with from the regions they have visited plus some of their songs and their cover of Celestial and their Pokémon that they have caught showing off their attacks or abilities as special stage effects. The crowd were cheering for the performance from the McBusted boys and their Pokémon combined.

Their tour throughout the world of Pokémon is the tour that they’ll never forget with the regions they have explored, the friends they have met, the joys they have experienced and the bonds they have forged which, in that sense made them all winners.
