He knows Pokémon better than me.

Two days later, everything was ready, and the three of them released their riding Pokémon at the back door of the dojo, preparing to fly straight to the six-star den.

Ash and Mash both use Corviknight, but Ash's Corviknight has a more metallic sheen in its feathers.

Marie used the vulture Nami, and the three of them flew together to the desert area north of the Isle of Armor.

The Pot-Bottom Desert is located to the side and behind the Tower of Evil. As the name suggests, the desert is shaped like a sunken frying pan, which is more clearly visible from the air.

"We've arrived!"

Master Ma led the way, giving a reminder.

This place is unlike the dusty depressions of the Galar wilderness, where the terrain is also sunken, but the sandstorms rage year-round.

The desert in front of us, with its slightly yellowish air, doesn't significantly affect visibility.

The thickest beam of light, a deep purplish-black, exuded an aura far surpassing that of the other Pokémon den beams.

The three of them tensed up and quickly landed in that direction!

Approaching the nest's stone platform, everyone retrieved their flying gears. Ash instinctively pulled out his Pokédex to check:

"Beep beep! Pokémon den identified!"

"Attribute: Fire + Flying (?). Star Rating: Six Stars. Weather: Rainy, Loto~!"

There's a black silhouette that looks like a fire-breathing dragon on it, but nine times out of ten, it's fake.

"I've already gone down there, old man. It's a Gigantamax Blastoise."

Ma Shide explained, which made Xiao Zhi's eyes light up.

They're from the same hometown!

However, it doesn't matter what Pokémon it is. This is just a test for Bewear and Urshifu, and it will be them no matter who comes.

Mary also took out her phone and started reciting relevant information:

"G-Max Blastoise's signature G-Max move is G-Max Hydro Pump, which has the same explosive damage effect as Leon's ace Charizard, followed by continuous minor damage."

"Then you can have this one for now!"

Ash handed the Ultra Ball containing Urshifu to Rotom, which intelligently held it and floated beside him.

Mary was unfazed, while Mastedt stared blankly.

How could he not know that such high technology existed, capable of deceiving Pokémon dens?

With everything ready, the three of them and one machine entered the honeycomb stone platform one after the other, just stepping into the nest space.

Da da da--!
A light rain was falling from the sky, making the entire nest space feel very damp.

In the distance, a massive Pokémon stood with its back to them, its silhouette resembling a small mountain, with numerous cannon-like spears protruding from its back, making it a very peculiar creature.

"Kami—!!"

Sensing the arrival of outsiders, the Gigantamax Blastoise, which had been asleep for an unknown amount of time, slowly and clumsily got up. However, it did not turn its body completely, but instead turned a quarter of its head to the side, looking down at the four people.

You should know that very few people on the Isle of Armor dare to come down and challenge me, but today someone has actually come down.

"Is this Gigantamax Blastoise?!"

Ash quickly perked up. Its frontal shape wasn't much different from Blastoise's, the only difference being its back shell. In the center was a thick cannon barrel, surrounded by a ring of cannons, and around the edge was another ring of slender cannon barrels—it looked exactly like a fully armed arms dealer!
The three of them, working on one machine, dared not be careless and simultaneously threw out Poké Balls. Master Ma even managed to tear off his clothes while throwing the ball.

boom!boom!boom!boom!
As the red light fell, Ash's side naturally consisted of Urshifu and Bebop, while Marnie was Grimmsnarl.

As for Master Ma, he also sent out a martial arts bear master, its fur standing on end, extremely aggressive—

He's a martial arts bear master who uses a one-hit-strike style!
The tortoise and the three bears locked eyes, and instantly, their fighting spirit was ignited, even in the rain.

"Such a powerful aura!"

Mary's pretty face was tense, and her hands were trembling involuntarily. Whether it was the Gigantamax Blastoise opposite her or the three bears beside her, she could feel a pressure that was significantly higher than her own.

The six-star team battle has officially begun!
"Never mind, long-haired troll, just use Light Wall!!"

Mary didn't care about any of that. With the "mischievous heart" trait, the long-haired troll was able to make the first move, immediately erecting a white light barrier in front of all her teammates.

"Blastoise is weak to Grass and Electric types, so it seems to have the Rain Dish ability, making it a tanky, bulky type."

Masde quickly offered a reminder.

Beside him, Ash had already taken Rotom back into his hand. He glanced at the real-time interface of the raid battle and noticed that the time bar at the top had become two bars.

"It looks like this is destined to be a protracted battle."

Before the three bears could even make a move, Gigantamax Blastoise had already taken action.

The gun barrels and turrets behind them all moved, aiming at the four Pokémon, and blue energy gathered at the muzzles.
Boom boom boom——! !

The next second, 1+12+18, a total of 31 cannons, simultaneously fired water cannons, carpet-bombing the four Pokémon!

It was its signature move, Gigantamax Hydro Pump, that annihilated it!

The central cannon, in particular, was aimed at Mastedt's martial arts bear master—

Blastoise remembers this human; he came down here before and fought for two rounds before running away at lightning speed. Let's see how you run this time!
"Watch closely, Ash! The essence of the One-Hit Kill style is to charge forward relentlessly, crushing any attack head-on! Use Dark Strike!!"

Master Ma immediately gave the order with great enthusiasm and passion.

In front of him, the martial arts master of the One-Strike Style clenched his fist and unleashed a burst of energy, his entire body spewing out black and purple flames. He then concentrated the energy in one fist and slammed it with all his might at the thickest water cannon that was coming at him.

"Let's join in! Bear costumes, Dark Nether Strike! Martial Arts Bear Master, Water Flow Combo!!"

Wearing a bear costume, it followed suit and threw a straight punch after activating its power. It has now mastered 80% of the Dark Strike move.

On the other side, the martial arts master of the combo style had his hands and feet wrapped in a watery cloak, and he unleashed a series of powerful blows as if he were engaging in close combat!

"Long-haired troll, use Protect!"

Mary naturally dared not be careless, and the latter immediately condensed a green light barrier in front of her, mainly for defense.

Rumble——!
Almost simultaneously, violent explosions rang out from four locations on the field. The rain amplified the power of the Gigantamax Hydro Pump.

Ash's Ursaring and Ursaring blocked several water cannon shots, but they couldn't withstand the combined 31 water cannon shots from Gigantamax Blastoise. In the end, Blastoise was overturned by the water cannons and slid back several meters.

Masde's martial arts bear master did manage to shatter the largest central water cannon head-on, but just as it dispersed, two smaller water cannons landed on its waist. It quickly raised its arms to block, but was knocked back.

But the most gruesome sight belonged to the hairy troll, who was simultaneously targeted and bombarded by seven or eight water cannons. His barrier shattered, and his entire body was sent flying backward.
This is the suppressive power of a six-star den Pokémon! (End of Chapter)
