He knows Pokémon better than me.

Before them, the Gigantamax Ursa Master was already closing in.

The massive figure blocked out the lights above, casting a heavy shadow that created a suffocating sense of oppression!

Then came a continuous barrage of fist shadows, heavy punches wrapped in water swung at high speed, crashing down as if the entire wave of water were pouring down.

Gigantamax Stream Combo!!

Cai Dou subconsciously bit her lip, forcing herself to calm down.

—Now we have no choice but to fight it out!

Just now, Urshifu used its normal state to withstand a Max Steel attack, so its Mighty Strength must also be able to.
should
Is it possible to do that?

Ayaka quickly suppressed her wavering thoughts, because her current ideas could affect the effectiveness of her superhuman strength!
Then she suddenly looked up, faced her hand directly, and shouted:

"Block them all with double the cross slashes!!"

Guai Li nodded, looking at his opponent before him, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Strange shout!"

Right now, it has no choice but to go all out!

With incredible strength, his feet gripped the ground firmly, his lower body lowered, and his four arms crossed in two interlocking crosses.

A white light enveloped him, and his muscles tensed to their limit!
His feet were firmly gripping the ground.

We must stop them!

The next instant, countless water jets and fists rained down without any gap, instantly engulfing the monstrous force.

Each punch was larger than the monstrous strength itself, the water carrying immense force, slamming into the cross-shaped defenses time and time again.

Boom boom boom——! !

With a series of loud punches, the monstrous strength suddenly sank, causing the ground to collapse!
Keep in mind that Gigantamax Water Stream can even break through Gigantamax Barrier, let alone a simple Chop.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

With a sound of bones cracking, the monstrous figure was slammed into the ground by the dense torrent of water.

The ground shook violently from the impact, shockwaves spread, and the surrounding walls swayed slightly.

Standing in the shadows in the stands, Onio, along with a few spectators who had sneaked in from the back of the stands, were all speechless with shock, their throats tightening.

That monster with super strength, won't it get smashed into a meatball?
The smoke and dust gradually dissipated.

At one end of the arena, the ground, which had been specially reinforced, was now riddled with a crater, its edges covered with spiderweb-like cracks.

And the superhuman strength was lying in the center.

His four arms hung limply at his sides, and his body was covered with bruises from being beaten.

"Strange."

Its eyes were darting around, and it was whimpering weakly; it had clearly lost consciousness.

"We lost."

Cai Dou's face darkened; she had been completely outmatched in today's battle.
the other side.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!
After unleashing three Dynamax moves, Martial Arts Urshifu's body began to shrink, returning to its original form.

It stood still, looking at its fallen opponent, before finally calming down.

"Wu Wu."

His shoulders were heaving, and his breathing was somewhat rapid.

The force of those punches from that monster was considerable; it still has quite a few bruises on its body, and they're throbbing with pain.

In mid-air, the Rotom drone also swiftly descended, emitting a clear pronouncement:

"Super Strength has lost its ability to fight!"

"Since all three of Bea's Pokémon are unable to battle, Ash is the winner of this Ultra Ball ranking match!" Rotom's eyes flashed red, as if he were calculating something.

After a brief pause, it raised its voice and officially announced the result:
"The live World Championship rankings for both teams have been updated! Please check them yourself!!"

As the sound faded, a sparse clapping sound came from one side of the audience. Xiao Zhi subconsciously turned his head and realized that seven or eight audience members had already slipped in.

With such a commotion, it's impossible to hide it.

But that didn't matter. He quickly took out his Rotom and checked his real-time ranking.

He rose from 96th in the advanced ball category to 80th.
"This range is pretty good, isn't it?"

Ash grinned. At this rate, after five, six, or seven matches, he should be able to prepare for the Master Ball-level promotion tournament.

I wonder if the rules will be the same as before at the Twin Dragons Dojo?
On the other side, Aya was also staring at her Rotom phone, her expression serious and unreadable.

Her ranking dropped from 83rd to 89th.
If they lose a few more games in a row, they'll have to go back to super-level football.

"Eh"

In the end, Cai Dou couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.

The rankings won't improve so easily from here on out. You'll likely encounter top-tier players from the league, each with one or two formidable trump cards.

Even she, who was hailed by the media as a Galarian fighting prodigy...
She is very confident compared to others her age.

But the World Championships don't discriminate by age; many are established masters who have been famous for years.

These guys were probably all geniuses in their respective regions when they were young, and they didn't have any advantages of their own.

Especially the guy in front of me!
Cai Dou narrowed her eyes and focused her gaze on the boy in front of her.

Noticing the other person's gaze, Xiao Zhi smiled and walked over, extending his palm:
"What a fantastic battle, Abebe!"

It's been a long time since I've felt this excited during a game.

As expected of a high-grade ball, the quality is immediately improved!

Even a legendary Pokémon like Urshifu would get beaten up several times.

"I lost, your Pokémon is really amazing."

Cai Dou let out a long breath, her expression softened, and she forced a smile before shaking hands.

However, it's not all bad. It's a good opportunity to ask him for advice on the secrets of fighting!

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the Pokémon Center in Strangetown.

Bea entrusted all her Pokémon to Nurse Joy, and Ash also temporarily entrusted Victini to her.

Corviknight and Sirfetch'd are not in much trouble. Steel and Fighting-type Pokémon need to be beaten up regularly, so this minor injury will heal quickly.

As for Bictini.

This guy, having absorbed too much "Will to Victory" at once, was overly excited and was now lying on the bed in a semi-conscious state, as if he had a fever.

"Uh, you can't hold on anymore already...?"

Ash's lips twitched. Once you reach the top ranks of the Advanced Ball level, or even the Master Ball level, you'll have to send every Pokémon to the Pokémon Center.
Well, getting used to the battle atmosphere in the Galar region should help.

While Miss Joey was receiving treatment, Aya also asked him for advice with a serious expression.

"Secret Techniques? Oh, one is the secret technique that Martial Arts Bear Masters possess innately, and the other is one I accidentally discovered elsewhere."

Xiao Zhi explained with a smile.

Speaking of which, Bea's superhuman strength is actually quite a perfect fit for the combo-style technique.

After all, no matter how fast Martial Arts Bear Master moves, he only has two fists, but Super Strength starts with a four-hit combo.

"I see."

Cai Dou listened intently; it seemed she would have to visit Master Ma to learn the secrets of the combo style. (End of Chapter)
