JF036

==Synopsis==
Rosa has her gym battle against Morty, the Ecruteak City Gym Leader with Yazmyne watching from the sidelines with Ivysaur, and the challenge proves very unexpected. Rosa confidently chooses Bisharp as her first Pokemon to counter Ghost-Types with her Dark-Typing. Morty, however, opens with a Marowak. Bisharp has some new moves, but Rosa's tactics haven't changed. Bisharp powers up with Swords Dance to deliver a powerful Night Slash, but Marowak uses his durable head to absrob the attack and knock out Bisharp with Bonemerang. 
Rosa follows with Hitmontop, who manages to defeat Marowak. Morty's second Pokemon is his signature Gengar, who proves too much for Hitmontop even though he is able to strike with help from Foresight. Rosa's final Pokemon is a Drowzee, which puts Rosa at a disadvantage. However, Rosa has Drowzee put Gengar to sleep early. The Psychic-Type doesn't follow-up with a typical Dream Eater. Rather it uses Nasty Plot twice to power-up its Special Attack power significantly. Gengar awakens and fires a Shadow Ball, which Drowzee overwhelms with its own due to the multiple Nasty Plot boosts and quickly knocks out Gengar.
Morty's final Pokemon is an Ariados, who knows Dig to avoid Drowzee's psychic glare and hammer Night Shade attacks. Drozee ultimately uses Disable to stop Dig and then put Ariados to sleep. The Bug-Type is then prey to multiple Shadow Ball attacks, which render it unable to battle. Therefore, Rosa wins the Fog Badge.
