Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master...

BOOM!

After the floodwaters washed away the water, Moon Bear lay unharmed on the battlefield, having suffered little damage.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that the rain suppressed the burns on Moon Bear's body, making it feel incredibly well. It seems that the rainy weather wasn't entirely without its benefits.

"Unfortunately, we were a step too late."

Seeing this, Xiao Mao clenched his fist helplessly.

"Blastoise will stop at nothing to take Umbreon away in order to achieve ultimate victory!"

"Use Wave Surge!"

"Kame!"

Pulse is a powerful Water-type move, but using it will also cause the Pokémon itself considerable damage.

It seems that Gary has absolutely no intention of saving Blastoise's energy.

Blastoise, being the Pokémon with the deepest bond with Gary, naturally understands what this battle means for its trainer.

He immediately mobilized all his energy without reservation, and layers of water enveloped his entire body.

The giant tortoise immediately charged toward the Moon Bear like a missile.

When it rains, Blastoise's Water-type moves are 1.5 times more powerful. Combined with its previous Shell Smash, this Wave Surge is incredibly powerful.

It was too late for Ursaring to dodge, so Ash decisively chose to confront it head-on.

"We will never lose in a contest of strength! Moon Bear, use your ultimate charge!"

The bear then started running wildly, unleashing its ultimate attack, a powerful Normal-type move.

As a numerically powerful monster, the Moon Bear already has high physical defense, and with the added bonus of Bulk Up and the Perseverance from Burn...

When it really comes down to it, Ursaring is not afraid of Blastoise at all!

Ash and Gary are both experienced trainers, especially skilled at stacking buffs on their Pokémon.

This has led to the rapidly changing situation in the battle, with both Pokémon's output exceeding their limits.

In this situation, it's a battle of wits where the brave prevail; whoever attacks the other first wins.

Although Ash's type is disadvantageous on the surface, he has momentum and bonds!

"Charge, Moon Bear! Remember the days we trained? We absolutely cannot lose!"

"Blastoise, everything depends on this one move. Go all out!"

"Oh, the moon!"

"Kame~!"

Both being powerful moves of their respective types, Ultimate Impact and Wave Impact clash – a collision between two behemoths.

The muddy ground immediately stirred up large waves of water.

The collision between Blastoise and Ursaring was accompanied by a series of astonishing sounds due to the entanglement of their skill energies.

The site was instantly reduced to rubble.

Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the field.

Finally, the noise gradually subsided, and the two Pokémon stood facing each other in their respective halves of the field.

Suddenly, they all fell down at the same time.

"Urdumb and Blastoise are both unable to fight!"

"Wow, what an amazing battle!"

"Both Pokémon displayed their extraordinary power, bringing everyone a thrilling and exciting battle..."

The audience thoroughly enjoyed the show, but the venue had to be rearranged due to the collision between Ursaring and Blastoise.

Ash and Gary also made history.

At the Silver Conference, the first time the venue was damaged so badly by Pokémon battles that a break was taken early.

It's impressive that they managed to destroy this specially designed, ultra-sturdy venue.

"Thank you for your hard work, Blastoise, at least you managed to take Ursaring away..."

Upon arriving at the rest area, Gary thanked Blastoise by presenting it with its Poké Ball.

"Let's leave the rest to our other companions."

Meanwhile, Xiao Zhi on the other side was also making preparations, and the arena was quickly rearranged.

It's still a rocky terrain, and even the duration of the rain has been adjusted back to what it was before.

"The alliance has more cutting-edge technology than I imagined."

Feeling the raindrops falling from the sky, Ash thought that it would be great if he could visit the League Research Institute someday.

At this moment, Xiao Mao also arrived at his venue, and the melodious cheers of their respective girlfriends' cheerleading squads rang out once again.

The second half of the Silver Tournament finals has officially begun.

"Ash, now that Ursaring is gone, how are you going to deal with my Reggie?" Gary smiled and sent out his Regirock again.

Just then, Regigi Elech woke up.

This rainy day was actually the day that Shigeru opened for Reggie Elegy.

Rain not only enhances Blastoise's Water-type moves, but also ensures that Regigigas's Thunderbolt will always hit during rainy weather.

It possesses a high-power STAB move that is guaranteed to hit and has no negative effects, coupled with the power boost from the Electrified ability and its ridiculously high speed.

This time, Reggie Elegy's destructive power will be increased to the maximum.

At this moment, Ursaring lost its ability to battle, and Regigigas, who was almost at full health, reappeared on the battlefield, but Ash showed no panic at all.

"You're too naive, Shigeru. Do you think you're the only one with legendary Pokémon?"

"Who will I use to deal with Regigigas? I've already prepared it, of course it's him!" Ash crossed his arms and let out a strange, cackling laugh.

"Could it be..."

Of course, Gary knew that Ash possessed many legendary Pokémon besides the Suicune and Zapdos he had previously sent out.

"But there shouldn't be any Pokémon among them suitable to deal with Reggieleigh. Who could it be...?"

"Of course..."

"I choose you, Pikachu!"

"Pickup!"

Cute little mice are going into battle!

"What?!" Shigeru exclaimed, collapsing in shock. "What happened to the legendary Pokémon?"

"What are you doing? This is my strongest legendary Pokémon, Pikachu!"

Don't underestimate Pikachu! Ash's strongest Pokémon is here!

"What kind of legendary Pokémon is this!" Gary felt like an idiot, having been tricked by Ash, a guy whose brain is all muscles.

"Dear viewers, the second half of the final has finally begun."

"Shigeru once again sent out the legendary Registeel, while Ash sent out... Pikachu!"

Even the commentators were dumbfounded.

"Ash's Pikachu has performed quite strongly in past battles, but when facing legendary Pokémon, Pikachu has no type advantage whatsoever."

The main difference is in appearance. Look at the previous Forsaken and Ursaring, these are the Pokémon that should be used in the finals of a formal competition.

Pikachu, perhaps you should evolve a little further before trying again.

How exactly will Ash and his team defeat the legendary Pokémon?

Both Pokémon are Electric-type, and Electric-types are resistant to Electric-types. Pikachu's proud high speed was also surpassed by Regigigas.

“Even Pikachu’s signature Iron Tail was resisted by Regigigas…” Gary pondered for a moment.

They believe that Ash is definitely going to use his usual hot-blooded battle style again.

"Ash, with Pikachu's physique, even if it resists, Regigigas's attack is enough to break through it!"

Gary knew that Ash's Pikachu was very strong, but he didn't think his Regigigas would lose.

"Regierech, use Thunder!"

Under the dark clouds, the large light bulb suddenly began to twist its body.

Two giant hands made of electricity summoned a thick bolt of lightning that struck Pikachu straight down.

But to everyone's surprise, Pikachu was not injured at all, and instead became more and more excited under the thunder.

Several electric currents were now wrapped around its cute little cheeks, and it happily waved its little hands.

"Pikachu~"

"What? How could it have the characteristics of a lightning rod?"

"How about it, are you surprised, Xiaomao?"

That's right, Ash's Pikachu's original Static ability was changed to Lightning Rod by him using the system before the battle.

Pokémon with lightning rods can attract electric-type moves to themselves during battle, regardless of whether they are allies or enemies.

Furthermore, it will not be harmed and can even increase its own special attack.

This effectively shut down Reggie Elegy's attack.

"A miscalculation!!" Shigeru thought that Satoshi had once again obtained the precious special ointment from Ms. Kikuko.

He was filled with remorse: "Damn it, how could I forget about this guy's relationship with Rika!"

Meanwhile, Ash, unaware that he had already been labeled a gigolo by Gary in his mind, was enjoying Gary's exasperated expression.

"Shigeru, you're right. With Regigigas's physique, even if it resists, my Pikachu's attack is enough to break through it!"

"Pikachu, it's our turn! Use Thunder!"

"Pickup!"
