Elf: Starting as the Fighting Gym Master, and being entangled by Nancy.

Chapter 409 Clash of Reality and Ideals: Reshiram vs. Zekrom
"Genesect, use a lock-on move while you're flying."

Li Xuan dared not engage in close combat with Zoroark. Genesect's stamina was not much at the moment, and if Zoroark were to touch him again, he would really collapse.

The previous charged flame attack in melee was only for acceleration; now that it's accelerated, there's no need for melee combat anymore.

Genesect's speed and special attack have been increased, so you can just kite it and slowly wear it down.

"Zoroark, don't let Genesect escape! Use Jealousy!"

N, seeing the dark figure in the smoke and dust, pointed out the passage ahead to Zoroark.

"Solo!" (Understood!)
Zoroark's mane danced wildly, and the flames of jealousy transformed into a twisting, serpentine trajectory, weaving and charging through the smoke and dust.

Genesect's silver compound eyes blinked incessantly, emitting a rapid "beep beep" sound.

Three red dots landed precisely on Zoroark's forehead, throat, and heart, eventually converging at his head to form a striking lock mark!

Locked-on move, successfully activated!
On Zoroark's side, Jealousy is also approaching Genesect's level.

If the shot hits, Genesect's fall is absolutely inevitable.

The crowd outside held their breath, but when their eyes fell on Li Xuan, they saw his lips curl up in a smile.

When this happens, it usually means that Li Xuan is confident of victory!
"What is Li Xuan thinking? Or does he still have some technique he can use?"

Since no one knew what moves Genesect could learn, they didn't understand the significance of Li Xuan's instructions.

at the moment.

Just as the dark fire serpent was about to touch it, Genesect suddenly shifted to the side in a manner that defied the laws of physics, with the high-temperature flames grazing its armor.

Before the locked-on Zoroark could react, Genosect's cannon barrel had already been fully charged, and a blinding energy light flashed violently at the muzzle.

Rumble!
As the roar resounded throughout the arena, Genosect's cannons unleashed terrifying beams of light.

A high-tech light cannon detached from the body, instantly piercing through the twisted flames of jealousy, tearing open a pure energy channel in the dark flames!

In Zoroark's astonished pupils, the high-tech beam cannon was reflected as it drew ever closer!

boom! ! !
The precise explosion sent flames soaring into the sky; the locked-on move ensured the strike landed squarely on the target.

The aftershocks of the energy completely dispelled the remaining flames of jealousy around them, revealing Zoroark's figure as he was thrown away by the shockwave.

Zoroark's body, blasted away by the beam cannon, crashed heavily to the ground, but just as it fell, a smile appeared on its lips.

Several clusters of dark flames, which had been deliberately concealed, suddenly burst out from between the mane on the back of its head!

These embers of jealousy, like boomerangs, traced treacherous arcs and slammed into Genesect's steel armor just as he was about to unleash another attack to counter it!

Boom!

In the flames of the explosion, Genossec fell down.

It knelt on the ground, its eyes lifeless.

"Genesect and Zoroark are both unable to battle. Please send out your next Pokémon!"

The referee raised his flag, and the Poké Balls below the large portraits of both sides went dark.

Li Xuan had one hidden, while N had two hidden.

"Bini!" (This is terrible, Li Xuan! You actually lost a Pokémon! Can you even win this battle? N's next Pokémon is Zekrom! Can you win? Can you win?!)

Bictini kept nagging in Li Xuan's ear, afraid that Li Xuan would really lose the game.

"Hey, why don't you talk about the good things? You keep talking about these bad things. Ugh, if you keep going like this, I feel like I'm really going to lose."

Li Xuan rubbed Bictini's head, and the moment he met N's gaze, the corners of both of their mouths turned up.

"Li Xuan, let's use those two giant dragons for our next Pokémon."

N extended an invitation.

"Hmm... Let me think about it, the battle situation does seem to be somewhat unfavorable to me."

Li Xuan sensed that there were still many floating, hidden invisible rocks on the field.

If Reshiram appears, although it won't cause much damage, it will still have some impact.

In this situation, it seems that there is no advantage to fighting Czechoslovakia head-on.

"Fine, what's done is done. Anyway, the Stealth Rock will only explode once, so it doesn't matter if you get one wave of damage."

Li Xuan took out his commemorative ball.

When the Poké Ball appeared, the entire live stream audience cheered!

[White Dragon! White Dragon! White Dragon! Our beloved White Dragon Reshiram is finally making his appearance!]

[Everyone stand up to welcome the Dragon King back! Black Dragon or White Dragon, which dragon is the most powerful?!]

[Slay Reshiram! Go defeat N's Zekrom!]

【…】

He said, "I never expected Li Xuan to have grown to such strength in just two months. I look forward to our match; if possible, let's set it for Silver Mountain."

The battle between two first-level gods attracted many people to watch.

However, because this competition was so obscure, for a time, only familiar faces of Li Xuan, who were also champions, came.

Daigo, Cynthia, Crimson, Blue, and the Kanto Elite Four...

It felt no different from a regular live stream.

Li Xuan's memorial ball streaked across the sky, but it was empty the moment it opened; Reshiram did not emerge from it.

At the same time, N's Poké Ball also fell in vain, but the sky suddenly darkened, and thick thunderclouds pressed down like a curtain.

The battlefield was instantly divided in two.

Above N's head, azure lightning churned in the clouds, each bolt piercing the sky like a sharp blade.

A pillar of azure fire rose around Li Xuan, the pure flames intertwining into a vortex that dyed half the sky a deep azure.

Two distinct legendary forces formed a clear dividing line in the center of the battlefield, and the air hummed under the strain of the energy clash.

Call ~
The wind howled furiously.

At both ends of the battlefield, the legendary dragons descended simultaneously.

In front of Li Xuan, Reshiram's snow-white wings unfurled, and the turbine engine at its tail emitted a burst of intense red light.

It raised its long neck, its blue eyes burning with fierce flames, like a proud king surveying the battlefield.

On the other side, Czechoslovakia landed with a thunderous roar.

Blue lightning crackled across its jet-black scales, its steel-like wings were fully extended, the thunderous engine at its tail roared and vibrated, and its scarlet dragon eyes flashed with a wild fighting spirit.

Two giant dragons faced off across the sky, while blue flames and lightning clashed fiercely in the center of the battlefield.

The fateful showdown between ideals and reality has begun!

"It's happened! The scene everyone has been waiting for has finally appeared in the final battle of the Strongest Trainer Tournament! Reshiram vs. Zekrom! The battle of the top-tier trainers in the Unova region!"

The forum moderator, Yi, gripped the microphone with both hands. At this moment, he witnessed two giant dragons confronting each other. This was the most valuable commentary he had ever given in his career!

I hope to have the opportunity to do commentary in the future!

"N, tell me, what is your ideal?"

Czechrom suddenly spread his arms wide. The battle hadn't really started yet; he wanted to buff himself first.

"Zekhrom, my ideal is to prevent Pokémon from being harmed by humans again! I want to liberate the Unova region!"

N raised his arm; at this moment, his ideals had reached their peak.

"Very well! Let my thunder crush all obstacles in your path!"

The lightning on the tail engine of the Czech Röhm gradually became similar in color to the scales, and the blue lightning turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Zekrom felt that he now possessed the strength of three Kyurem!

In other words, in terms of strength, he could easily overpower Kyurem with just one hand!

"Li Xuan, tell me! What is your true self!"

Not to be outdone, Reshiram also roared forward.

As a true dragon, it absolutely cannot be inferior to the ideal dragon Zekrom.

"My truth is that my heart and actions are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is just!"

As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, Reshiram was immediately enveloped in blue flames, and the invisible rocks on the field were also burned to ashes by the appearance of the blue flames!

Let my flames burn away the obstacles that block your way!

"it is good!"

Li Xuan snapped his fingers and commanded without any hesitation, "Reshiram, Dragon Pulse!"

Reshiram raised his head, and from his gaping maw, a colossal phantom of a dragon suddenly burst forth!

The scale and power were immense, far surpassing any dragon surge that many had witnessed in person!
Even Lance, who was sitting in front of the screen, felt that only his ace Dragonite had a slight chance of fighting against it.

"Zekhrom, Dragon Claw Counterattack!"

Just as the Dragon Pulse was about to strike, Zekrom made a sudden movement, and blue energy extended several meters from between his claws! Then, Zekrom slashed forward with tremendous force!
The energy dragon was split in two, but it did not disappear. Instead, it transformed into two giant dragons that strangled Zekrom!

"Roar!"

Zekrom cried out in pain, his body bursting with lightning, and the energy dragon that was biting him was blasted into pieces by the lightning.

"Interlaced lightning!"

Long range is not Zekrom's strong suit, so N chose to move closer to Lehiram to bring out Zekrom's strengths!
Zizizi!
Lightning exploded, and Zekrom flapped its wings, closing in on Lehiram.

A few arcs of electricity leaped out, locking onto Reshiram's location!
"Reshiram, then let's unleash the Interlaced Flames!"

Li Xuan released his wave-guiding power, and the azure light transformed into threads, making the connection between himself and Reshiram even stronger!

"Wuhou!"

Flames erupted from the tail of the Reshiram turbine, and it raised its head to let out a clear dragon roar, condensing a giant fireball with cross-shaped fire patterns in its mouth.

Jekrom's eyes flashed with lightning, and his dragon claw, crackling with dark lightning, swung down fiercely.

A bolt of dark lightning, tearing through space, slashed out like a sharp blade and collided with the incoming fireball in mid-air!

In an instant, sparks and lightning fragments rained down, illuminating the entire battlefield with flickering light!
"Now! Czechoslovakia, Meteor Shower!"

Zekrom excels at physical attacks, while Meteor Shower, a move that only affects special attacks, was used by N as a substitute for Snap Shot.

"Roar!"

Czechrom roared to the sky, and a dazzling indigo light burst forth from the gaps in his scales.

The immense dragon energy shot straight into the sky, tearing a huge spatial rift in the heavens!

Countless meteorites fell from the crack, streaking towards the earth with long trails of flame.

The entire battlefield instantly transformed into an apocalyptic scene, far exceeding the level of ordinary Pokémon using this move!
Reshiram flapped its snow-white wings and tumbled through the meteor shower, forced to temporarily adopt a defensive posture.

Meanwhile, Zekrom stood proudly at the center of the meteor storm, its jet-black dragon wings spread wide, like a demon god descending to earth to destroy the world!
"I'm not afraid of opponents with schemes, I'm afraid of opponents who are particularly reckless..."

Li Xuan gasped. Actually, he had many ways to deal with this kind of move.

However, N was too reckless, resulting in a situation that was sometimes good and sometimes bad.

As for the meteor shower released by Zekrom, it seems that we don't have a particularly good way to resist it.

"Hold on!"

In a critical moment, Li Xuan chose to have Reshiram use the versatile "Protect" move.

"Laihou!"

Reshiram's wings formed a protective barrier in front of him, shielding him from the incoming meteor shower.

"Lightning strike!"

N pressed his advantage and launched a counterattack.

Upon receiving the order, Czech Röhm sprang into action, his dragon eyes flashing with lightning.

It suddenly flapped its wings and took off, its body appearing and disappearing in the thunderclouds.

In an instant, countless thick, black lightning bolts cleaved down from the clouds, weaving together to form a thunderstorm domain around it.

Just as Reshiram's defense was about to dissipate, Zekrom swooped down like an arrow released from a bow.

Its right claw was filled with highly compressed lightning energy, which transformed into a giant lightning blade more than ten meters long.

Before the attack even reached its target, the arcs of electricity had already scorched the ground, leaving charred marks!

Lehiram immediately realized the danger, and the turbine exhaust suddenly turned bluish-white.

It quickly adjusted its posture to prepare to dodge, but the lightning was too fast, and the dark lightning had blocked all escape routes!
"Since there's no way to avoid it, let's face it head-on!"

Li Xuan's eyes blazed, and he swung his right hand forward sharply: "Reshiram, unleash your full blue flames!"

Countless pure blue flames erupted from Reshiram's mouth, then intertwined in front of him to form a huge vortex of fire.

Faced with the approaching dark thunderstorm, Reshiram raised his head and roared. The blue flame vortex suddenly expanded, like a ferocious fire beast with its mouth wide open, devouring Zekrom!

Boom boom! ! !

Zekrom's arm collided violently with the blue flames, and the dark lightning cleaved through the layers of fire with overwhelming force!

This lightning strike tore a path through the sea of ​​fire, shattering the blue flames!

After this attack, the lightning surrounding Zekrom dimmed.

The remaining electric arcs flickered weakly on its steel-like scales, clearly indicating that the breakthrough had consumed most of the electrical energy.

Zekrom's dragon body swayed slightly amidst the dissipating blue flames, and heavy dragon breath was exhaled...

"Dragon Claw!"

With a burst of energy, Czech Rom flapped its wings and swooped down, a cold glint flashing in its dragon eyes.

Its right claw glowed with a blue light, and dragon energy condensed into an energy blade more than three meters long, cutting through the air with a shrill sound!

"seal!"

Li Xuan's instructions caused an uproar throughout the room.

Reshiram's turbine exhaust suddenly turned an eerie purple, and his eyes emitted a superpowered glow.

Just as Zekrom's dragon claw was about to strike, a mysterious energy pattern suddenly appeared in the void.

Upon closer inspection, everyone realized it was a large "X"!
With the appearance of "X", the unstoppable dragon energy vanished into thin air as if erased by an eraser, right before everyone's eyes.

Czechrom's claws froze in mid-air, a hint of surprise flashing in his dragon eyes.

Its most prized Dragon-type move was completely sealed away at this moment!

[Seal: If your opponent and you have the same move, only the opponent will be unable to use that move.]

Zekrom can learn almost all of Reshiram's Dragon-type moves.

In other words, Zekrom is currently unable to use any of the Dragon-type moves he has learned!

[Old ginger is spicier, and Li Xuan is a veteran actor. He didn't seem to be giving any instructions earlier, but I never expected he was holding back something big.]

[That seal was so cool! It completely caught the opponent off guard!]

[Reshiram is invincible! Reshiram, charge! Go for it, White Dragon!]

Li Xuan's move made everyone stand up in front of their screens.

At first, I thought that Reshiram would be powerless to fight back if Zekrom engaged in close combat.

But the recent reappearance of the seal gave everyone hope.

"Our time to counterattack has come! Reshiram, Dragon Pulse!"

Reshiram seized the fleeting opportunity and suddenly opened its dragon jaws.

The dragon-type energy gathered in its throat instantly reached a critical point, and a dragon wave with a diameter of more than two meters suddenly erupted at point-blank range!
The Dragon's Wave slammed squarely into Zekrom's chest.

The impact at such close range left Zekrom no time to even let out a cry of pain. His massive dragon body was sent flying backward, carving a trench tens of meters long at the edge of the arena before finally coming to a stop.

"Zekrom!"

N couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

"I'm fine, this Reshiram is too cunning."

Zekrom slowly exhaled a breath of stale air. It could be hit by any Pokémon except Reshiram.

For him, this was nothing short of a disgrace.

During their conversation, Li Xuan had Reshiram use Dragon Pulse again!

Boom boom boom!
Reshiram pressed its advantage, unleashing three consecutive Dragon Pulse beams that formed a triangular pattern, sealing off the entire airspace.

Despite his injuries, Czechrom bravely flapped his wings, and at the critical moment, his dark dragon wings unleashed a violent gust of wind.

It rose with the wind, daringly traversing and climbing through the energy gaps, but a ripple at the very edge still grazed its left wing.

The flight path of the Czechoslovakian aircraft suddenly became unsteady and erratic.

"Czechrom, adjust your posture, don't let Lehiram find an opportunity."

Previously, one could use Dragon Dance to dodge attacks while simultaneously enhancing their abilities.

However, Reshiram used a sealing move, which immediately blocked Zekrom's Dragon Dance, forcing him to dodge.

"It's no use! Reshiram, Blue Flame!"

Li Xuan clenched his fist, and Reshiram released blue flames, transforming the battleground into a fiery battlefield.

The heat was intense; a bead of sweat trickled down Czechoslovakia's forehead as he gasped for breath.

In less than ten rounds of combat, he had already fallen into a disadvantageous position.

"This Li Xuan is too cunning. He won't fight fair and square; he insists on resorting to underhanded tactics..."

Czechrom smirked and started complaining to Li Xuan.
