He knows Pokémon better than me.

"That six-star level den isn't something ordinary trainers can challenge!"

Magua quickly raised his hand, trying to comfort Xiaozhi.

With his current strength, he can barely challenge a five-star nest, but he can only participate in the battle if his attributes are absolutely countered.

A six-star nest? He had never even considered it.

However, Ash had already reached the giant nest and taken out his Rotom phone to perform a test—

However, it seems to be not fully activated yet, as it displays "???" and shows no information.

"No matter what, what those two said is too outrageous."

Seeing that Ash seemed not to have heard what he was saying at all, Maga was still trying to stop him.

Even if he were teaming up with Dan Di now, he would still...
I'll definitely agree!
Dan is an exception; even if he loses, it's worth it to be able to team up with this undefeated champion!

"Don't worry, Mr. Maga, I've already challenged a six-star nest once before, and I succeeded!"

Xiao Zhi patted his chest and said:

"And this time I'll be sending out my ace Pikachu!"

The previous sentence relieved Magua, indicating that Xiaozhi at least had some experience and wasn't just a hotheaded young man.

But the next sentence, "My ace Pikachu," made his face turn black.

These days, are people still using electric mice as their trump card?
He just saw Pikachu too; it had slicked-back hair, a ruddy complexion, and was practically glowing. If you put it inside an electric mouse, it would be a pretty boy—all bark and no bite.

"No matter what, there are two of them."

"It's not two people, it's three people."

Xiao Zhi quickly raised his phone and reminded him:

"My Rotom phone can also take a Poké Ball down with it!"

Magua frowned. What kind of cutting-edge technology is this?

However, seeing Ash's confident gaze, Maga hesitated for a moment before finally taking off the detection scope and putting on the flashy pointed-frame sunglasses again.

When did I become so timid and hesitant?
If you can't win, just run away! What's there to hesitate about?
"Okay! Let's team up and give it a try!"

Most Galar trainers probably haven't even seen a six-star giant nest before. He had only seen it once by chance before, but had never actually challenged it.

Magua's face gradually became flushed and excited.

"Then let's keep using Rock Smash, Pot Pot!"

Upon hearing the command, the pot once again transformed into an angle grinder, grinding all the rocks in the crevice to shreds, gradually revealing a purplish-red light—

However, it did not form a beam of light that shoots straight into the sky like a normal Pokémon den.

"Because we need to add more fuel to the fire."

Magua took some pink, fragmented crystals out of his bag and sprinkled them onto the crack in the stone platform, explaining as he did so:

"This thing is called a Dynamax Crystal. When you put it into a Pokémon den, it can awaken the den Pokémon inside and activate the den."

Wishing star chips have the same effect, or even a more powerful one.

Even if you've just finished clearing a Pokémon den, a new den boss will spawn within half a day at the latest after you put in a Wishing Star.

Of course, Wishing Star Shards are extremely precious materials for making Max Bracers, and no one would be willing to use them to activate Pokémon Dens.

Click click click!

As the gigantic crystal entered the crevice, the entire giant nest platform began to shake, and the purplish-red light inside flickered as if boiling.

Eventually, the gap in the middle of the stone platform widened, forming a passageway that people could enter.

Swoosh—!
A thick, deep purplish-red beam of light shot straight into the sky, illuminating the entire wilderness even in broad daylight.

Being so close, Ash and Maga felt an extremely strong pressure almost simultaneously, making their hair stand on end.

"Its aura is about the same as that of the Gigantamax Blastoise on the Isle of Armor?"

Xiao Zhi compared them briefly and thought to himself.

As for Magua, he immediately became alarmed, as if he had personally unleashed a demon, and his expression became extremely serious.

"This six-star nest has been fully activated and is ready for challenge at any time!" Ash nodded and took out his phone again to tap Rotom.

"Beep beep! Pokémon den identified! Type: Fire/Flying (???)"

Star rating: Six stars. Weather: Sunny. Venue: Green grass field, Loto!

Below is a black silhouette with wings, looking like a fire-breathing dragon.

"Is it a Venusaur?"

Xiao Zhi guessed based on intuition, mainly because the "Field" column said "Grass Field".

Black silhouettes with five stars or more are already unreliable!

If the opponent is a Dynamax Venusaur... No, Venusaur, like Blastoise, should also have a Gigantamax form.

This time, without Marie and Master Ma's help, Pikachu has to be the main attacker.

As for the second one, we've already challenged the two bears, so we won't choose those two for now.

Melmetana and Magiana are both good choices, but
What if it really is a fire-breathing dragon?!
The Steel-type is about to be engulfed in flames by the Gigantamax Charizard.

After hesitating for a moment, Ash had his answer, so he looked up and shouted loudly:

"Mr. Mime, call Pikachu and Cinderace over here!"

The Freedom ability can be switched at will, making it effective against both Charizard and Venusaur.
Of course, this time the main attacker is Pikachu, while Cinderace is the supporting attacker.

"Bari~!"

Above, the Mr. Mime responded and turned to look for someone.

"I've made up my mind too!"

Beside him, Magua also pulled out a heavy, black ball, ready to go.

Fortunately, I brought my trump card with me on this trip, so at least I still have some confidence.

"Pickup!"

Soon, a clear cry came from above, and Pikachu leaped up and landed steadily on Ash's shoulder.

It was itching to vent its pent-up energy, having just finished a major battle. Now it was just the right time to find a punching bag to release its excess strength.

"cowry!"

Flame Ace uses wall-jumping techniques to land, displaying agile movements.

Everyone inside the castle saw the purplish-red beam of light, and everyone was eager to try. They never expected that this opportunity would fall to them.

"cowry!!"

Flame Blade clenched his fist and shouted, displaying high fighting spirit!
"Keep this fighting spirit. But I need to ask Rotom for help first."

Ash smiled as he put Cinderace back in his hand, then handed the Poké Ball to Rotom.

This scene left Magua completely bewildered.

Of course, the two also exchanged information about Venusaur and Charizard's Gigantamax forms during the exchange.

Anyway, the Gigantamax moves of the three starter Pokémon from Kanto are all the same. They are all like Blastoise's "Gigantamax Hydro Pump," which delivers a fierce attack followed by several rounds of continuous minor damage.

"In that case, let's go down!"

Ash took the lead, carrying Pikachu as they stepped onto the stone platform and walked down.

"Loto~!"

Then Rotom, holding a Poké Ball, followed, and finally Maga took a deep breath and entered as well.

Upon entering the nest space, the scorching sunlight of the bright sunny day dappled down, and the air and ground were filled with the unique lush green arc of the grass field.

Then there was a colossal creature lying on the ground with its back to the two of them, seemingly not yet fully awake.

"As expected, the black silhouette was a lie again!"

Ash's lips twitched as he looked at the black silhouette of the true form appearing in the Pokédex, and he couldn't help but curse under his breath—
