He knows Pokémon better than me.

Once they all enter Dynamax mode, the situation instantly reverses.

"Melmet, use the Great Fist!!"

Ash shouted loudly, "Finally, it's their turn to use this move!"

Dynamaxed Melmetal roared, its voice loud and long, and slammed its fist into the sky.

Whoosh!
The next moment, a huge energy fist fell like a meteor, shooting diagonally toward Commander Slash.

The Maximal Punch, upgraded from brute force, is exceptionally powerful!

"Unfortunately, it seems the Iron Fist ability hasn't been triggered?"

Ash frowned. He didn't even want to think about a combination of Iron Fist and Max Fighter!
On the other side, Commander Splitter panicked instantly and tried to counter with a Giant Punch, an upgrade from Brick Break.

However, this move had previously been sealed by the hairy troll.

It could only protect its body with its hands, creating a huge white light barrier around itself—

This is a Giant Barrier upgraded from "Iron Wall," with defensive capabilities far exceeding those of a regular "Protect."

Boom boom! !
The enormous fist exploded on the Commander of Slash, causing the entire nest space to tremble.

The presence of Dynamaxed Pokémon in front and behind made the originally spacious battle arena feel somewhat crowded.

As the smoke and dust cleared, the barrier surrounding the commander shattered, but the commander himself remained unharmed.

However, like Protect, Max Guard is difficult to use continuously.

"One more time, Max Muscle Fight!!"

Ash shouted loudly and unleashed another highly effective attack.

It's important to know that every time Melmetal uses Max Punch, its Attack stat increases, and the Energy Punch that falls from the sky becomes even larger!

Beside them, Mary and the long-haired troll suddenly felt superfluous.

"In that case, long-haired troll, use Soul Impact!"

Mary is still trying her best to cooperate.

The long-haired troll understood and slapped his palm, sending out several pink flashes. This fairy-attribute exclusive move was aimed directly at the face of the Slashing Commander, which could at least partially obscure the latter's vision.

At this moment, Commander Cleave was also in a bind. Was it the boss, or was the metal giant in front of him the boss?
There was no other way but to forcefully unleash two streams of dark purple light, attacking both opponents simultaneously.

Giant Bully!

Explosions rang out one after another, but the Dark attribute moves were only moderately effective, causing very limited damage.

But the other side's giant fist fight is a different story.

Boom!

The massive fist-shaped cannonball slammed head-on into Commander Pi Zhan's face, the powerful force instantly flipping him over and sending him crashing heavily to the ground, his steel skeleton seemingly cracked.

Outstanding effect!

With just one strike, the commander's health bar was reduced to one-third, and a white light barrier appeared around him, indicating that he had entered the intense phase.

"This feels so good!"

Ash shouted with delight, and it has to be said that although commanding Dynamax battles is mindless, it is indeed enough to get people's blood pumping.

Every strike he delivered seemed to possess the power to shake the earth!
However, this is not a fair fight; the situations on both sides are not the same.

Bisharp remains in Dynamax form throughout the entire fight, but Melmetal reverts to its original form after three turns.

"Then, one last round, let's end the battle! With Max Knuckles!!"

Ash didn't change his moves. Melmetal, whose Attack stat was already increased by 2, was emitting a fierce red light all over its body. It unleashed an even bigger red fist with unparalleled power.

The Commander of Slash, having entered the Mystic Barrier state, also had all negative effects removed.

The hairy troll's "sealed" state has disappeared, and it can unleash Brick Break again. "Brick Break!!"

Commander Slash shouted and once again unleashed a massive fist to meet the attack, though its gigantic fist was noticeably smaller than Melmet's.

Bang bang—!

The two energy fists collided in mid-air. After a few seconds of stalemate, Melmet's fist forcefully dispersed the opponent's fist and then slammed into the face of the Commander of Slash.

In an instant, the nest space shook violently, and smoke and dust filled the air.

The two also clearly heard a sound like breaking glass.

On the Rotom phone screen, it was shown that the Commander's white shield shattered instantly, entering its final weakened state.

Then one-third of the health bar rapidly decreased until it reached zero.

Outstanding effect!

Boom-!
Commander Pi Zhan's massive body slammed backward and crashed heavily to the ground, unable to fight any longer.

The purplish-red clouds overhead quickly dissipated, and his body shrank three times in succession, returning from more than 20 meters to a normal size of 1.6 meters.

"Crack."

His eyes darted around, and he had completely fainted on the ground.

On the other side, Melmet was also raising his arms and shouting, but after only a couple of shouts, his body shrank rapidly, and after three rounds, he returned to his original size.

"Well done, Melmetta!"

The excited blush on Xiao Zhi's face gradually faded, and he smiled and praised him.

Four-star nests are a breeze for Melmeta; it's a complete numerical crushing victory.

If it were the young general Teng Cu, it would take a lot of effort, and there's no guarantee he could finish the battle before time ran out.

Ash glanced subconsciously at the Dynamax Raid countdown displayed on his Rotom phone; it had only gone through one-third of the way, practically at the speed of light.

He then looked at Melomet.

Since it's not a Gigantamax Melmetal, it still feels like something's missing. I'll definitely need to drink Max Soup from now on!
Having easily ended the battle, Ash looked at Marie, whose usually cool and aloof face gradually began to light up with excitement.

She stepped forward, took a deep breath, and tossed a deluxe ball at Commander Slash.

It didn't take much effort; after shaking it three times, I easily captured it.

"Success! Commander Slash has been captured!"

Mary picked up the luxurious black and gold-trimmed ball, her face beaming with joy.

Seeing Xiaozhi approach, she immediately felt grateful:

"Thank you so much this time, Ash!"

She alone couldn't defeat this Slash Commander. It would probably take three of her together to Dynamax and take it down.

Xiao Zhi smiled and waved his hand:

"It's all a small matter~"

Before they could say anything more, the entire nest space began to shake violently, as if to "drive them away."

The two exchanged a glance and quickly recalled their Pokémon.

"You should come back soon, Melmetta!"

Ash reluctantly recalled Melmetal, who was still standing there shouting and performing its "Resolve Dance." There wasn't even an audience here; who were you putting this up for?
The two hurriedly returned along the same route, as a bright purplish-red light flashed by.

In the blink of an eye, they were back on the surface, on the shore of the Giant Mirror Pool.

They were all carrying some spoils of war! (End of Chapter)
