On your mark! Get set! Bang! The race had finally begun and right out of the gates Rapidash stormed out taking the early lead and was closely followed by Zebstrika and Manetric on the other hand Lucario, Luxray and Zoroark had started off slowly. Rapidash continued to lead the pack as he barrelled down the track, right behind him was Zebstrika who was also making tracks. Manetric who was off to a quick start ended up having Suicune and Arcanine running side by side with him for a bit before both Pokémon pulled slightly ahead with Suicune pulling ahead of Arcanine. Pyroar was just a small distance behind them giving it his all with houndoom being around the same distance behind him with Greninja right on Houndoom’s tail. Luxray was currently in 9th followed by Lucario who was barely ahead of Zoroark who was barely ahead of Blaziken.
Rapidash continued to run faster and faster now creating a gap between him and the other racers, Zebstrika was still in second and trying his best to keep up with Rapidash but was quickly dropping behind him. Arcanine had managed to push himself past suicune and was now in third and was gaining fast on Zebstrika. Suicune had 4th place and had now created a gap between him and Manetric who was still 5th. Pyroar continued to run in 6th place but he was being followed closely by Houndoom and close to houndoom was Luxray and Greninja. Luxray had caught up to the ninja frog who was right behind houndoom and both were running hard trying to ensure the other wouldn’t get passed. Behind them was Lucario who was barely ahead of Zoroark and blaziken who were both fighting for last.
Rapidash continued to lead as the finish line edge ever closer, his lead was cemented and there was no one who was close enough to challenge him on the line, however the battle for 2nd place was heating up. Arcanine had ran past Zebstrika taking second place but Zebstrika quickly retaliated and sped up again quickly catching back up to Arcanine as the two ran neck and neck towards the line. Suicune wasn’t too far behind them and kept running as hard as it could in 4th place. Manetric followed behind Suicune in 5th place unable to close the gap Suicune had created. Houndoom began sprinting even harder and pushed his way past Pyroar to take the 6th spot. Pyroar had managed to maintain 7th. Luxray was sprinting hard and managed to pass Greninja, leaving greninja in 9th. Blaziken then sprinted even harder trying to close the gap between him and 9th while leaving the others in his dust however Lucario wasn’t having that and answered his sprint with his own. Both Pokémon were running hard and were neck and neck unfortunately Zoroark was unable to answer their sprint and fell behind.
Rapidash sprinted and passed the line first, securing Gen 1’s third gold medal of the competiton. Finishing behind him was Arcanine and Zebstrika. Arcanine pulled ahead of zebstrika before the line and thought he had second but Zebstrika answered one last time with a final push beating out Arcanine for 2nd by a nose. Suicune was the next to finish followed by Manetric. Houndoom was heading down fast towards the line but Pyroar had now unleashed his final burst of speed and he ran harder closing the gap between houndoom and passing him right on the line taking 6th spot. Houndoom was forced to settle for 7th. Behind them Luxray was running towards the line but Greninja wasn’t backing down. The ninja frog Pokémon pushed himself harder and harder until they crossed the line at the exact same time. Greninja had managed to close the gap but couldn’t clinch 8th place by himself and had to settle for a tie. Lucario ran passed Blaziken and edged him out taking 10th place leaving blaziken in 11th. Zoroark finished last a small length behind the others.
