"Ready, set, go!"

Once the last sylable left Diantha's mouth, havock unleashed its wrath onto the field. Since the majority of this class were teenage boys, and they were participating in a game where you had to throw things at other teenage boys, the battlefield suddenly turned into a war zome. Ash could hear the shouting and screaming of people and pokemon, and heard the hollow bouncing sound of failed throws.

"Draco-Draco!"

"Turn left? Got it!" Ash turned 90 degreees to the left. 

"Draaaa!" 

"Going fowards!" Ash speedwalked fowards, hoping he didn't bump into someone or trip on a ball.

"Pika Pika!" 

"Throwing!" Ash said.

He heard a satisfying smack as the ball hit someone. "Good work, everybody!"

"Aww, I'm out already?" A student walked off the battlefield (Or at least, Ash was pretty sure a student walked off the battlefield).

"Alright, now I need a new ball!" Ash gropped around in the air, hoping he didn't run into anything.

"Sir-Sirfetche'd!" 

Ash spun 90 degrees to the right.

"Draaa!"

He speedwalked fowards.

"Cario-cario!" Lucario shouhted frantically.

"Uh-oh!" Ash crouched down. When he didn't feel a dodgeball flying into him, he grinned. "Thanks, Lucario!"

"Draa!"

"Alright, foward still?" Ash continued foward.

"Gen-Gengar!" Ash stopped and reached in front of him. After groping around for a moment, his hands landed on the dodgeball.

"Great work, guys! Now who am I going to throw it at?"

"Sirfetche'd!"

"Draaa!"

"Alright!" Ash turned to the right and speedwalked foward.

"Pika!" 

Ash hurled the dodgeball in front of him, but didn't hear the smack he had last time.

"Cari-Cario!"

Ash ducked down just as he felt a projectile soar barely over his head. 

"Wow, thanks Lucario! That was a close one! Now let's find another ball!

"Draco-Draco vish!"

Ash headed left.

As the number of people left dwindled, it was soon shown who was working best with their pokemon. Ash, Paul, and Sawyer and others had perfected their strategy with their pokemon. Alain, Gladion, and many others were doing well, but were relying more on their own senses than their pokemon. 

However, Tierno was the real star of the show. He and his pokemon had a perfect rythm going, dodging every attack that came their way. 

Soon, the number of students left standing dropped down to 40, then 20, then 10. Ash, Gladion, Paul, Tierno, Sawyer, Alain, and four other students were the last ones standing.

"Draa!"

Ash rushed fowards.

"Cario!"

Ash dodged while on the run.

"Gen-Gengar!"

Ash picked up the ball that was in front of him.

"Sir-sirfetched!"
