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

The white gorilla was instantly sent flying backward, crashing heavily into the wall beside it.

"What a powerful attack."

Jin Zhi, the referee, was startled and immediately wanted to check on the condition of the ape.

But then Qianli casually waved his hand and said confidently.

"Wait a minute, Kinji, it's still a long way from the time when the hyperactive ape collapses."

"Hyperactive Monkey, attack!"

"Yaru!"

From the large pit in the wall, two large white-haired hands instantly dispersed the surrounding dust, and the hyperactive ape's strong body shot out.

It leaped off the wall with great force, rushing out at an even faster speed than when it flew over, and arrived in front of the Blaziken in the blink of an eye.

"Wow, that's fast!" Ash exclaimed in surprise.

This hyperactive ape was almost as fast as the Blaziken after its acceleration. Before the Blaziken could react, its large claw had already delivered a heavy blow to the Blaziken's chest.

The Blaziken was immediately sent flying backward and crashed into the wall behind it.

"Oh, another hole, in the wall of our dojo."

At this moment, Xiao Sheng suddenly cried out in pain.

Since embarking on his trip, he has come to understand the importance of money and has started to manage the household finances, which is why he feels even more heartbroken.

"These two holes are so big, how much will it cost to repair them?"

Ash and Senri were battling with complete abandon, paying no attention to the damage to the arena.

Unfortunately, the Petalburg Gym's battleground is an indoor arena. If they let their Pokémon keep hitting with that kind of force, the whole building might collapse.

"Mom, aren't you going to do anything about Dad and Xiaozhi?"

Mitsuko, who usually manages the household finances and is most concerned about such matters, looked indifferent and comforted him easily.

"Don't worry, Xiaosheng, the league will cover the repair costs for any damage to the field caused by the battle."

"It doesn't matter if Ash and his friends destroy the entire battlefield... or rather, it would be better if they destroyed it."

"what?"

"Haha, no, no, let's focus on the game."

After reassuring the unsuspecting child, Mitsuko turned and revealed a sly smile unique to adults.

Actually, she had long disliked that this battlefield was too old. Although it was old-fashioned and large, it was extremely difficult to clean because there were so many hard-to-reach corners.

Now is the perfect time for Senri and Ash to battle it out, and then we can apply to the League for new funding to build a new battle arena.

Anyway, it's public money, so why not use it?

Oh, those filthy adults.

Just then, Blaziken finally managed to pull itself out of the hole in the wall and immediately jumped back onto the battlefield. Ash immediately asked worriedly.

"Are you alright, Blaziken?"

"Cha~"

Blaziken's response was not optimistic; it clutched its chest, its expression grave.

It seems that the attack from the hyperactive ape just now caused it considerable damage.

"This hyperactive ape's attack power is so high!" Ash's heart sank.

Fighting-types are effective against Normal-types, but Normal-types offer no resistance against Fighting-types.

Therefore, the damage from the hyperactive ape's attack was completely applied to Blaziken.

Unexpectedly, its stamina was depleted so much at once. Blaziken, whose health bar isn't particularly high, absolutely cannot take any more hits from Ape.

"So, Ash, if you underestimate Apexis's claws, you'll suffer a great loss."

At this moment, Qianli changed his gentle smile and immediately issued an order.

"Hyperactive Monkey, keep attacking! Use your full power to cleave!"

"Yaru Ke!"

That attack just now was a reminder from Chiri to Ash; this time it's the real attack.

As a veteran who has accompanied Pikachu on its long journey for over a decade, the strength of the hyperactive ape was already demonstrated when it battled Pikachu.

Its full-force attack is comparable to Pikachu's Iron Tail in its normal state.

This time, the slash is far more powerful than the previous grab; Blaziken would be knocked down if it even got a little bit involved.

Ash immediately shouted, "Blizzard, use your powerful jump to dodge! You absolutely cannot let it hit you!"

"just!"

Blaziken's speed boost was activated again at the end of the previous battle, and now it is twice as fast as when it first appeared.

The hyperactive ape swung its two scythe-like hands incessantly across the field, the powerful force causing the hard ground to shatter into several pieces.

Unfortunately, none of these offensive moves managed to touch Blaziken.

But hiding like this isn't a solution. Although Blaziken is extremely fast, it can't relax for a moment while dodging.

Blaziken was constantly dodging and weaving to avoid Ape's pursuit, and its stamina was rapidly depleting. Meanwhile, Ape, due to its excitement, became more and more excited as the fight progressed.

Gradually, the boost from the acceleration could no longer compensate for the physical fatigue, and Blaziken's movements finally began to slow down.

However, Ash noticed that Apexis's breathing was becoming increasingly rapid.

Even if it is in a state of high spirits at all times, physical fatigue is still unavoidable.

"Then we have to seize the opportunity!" Ash immediately focused his attention.

At this moment, Qianli realized that it was time to break the deadlock, and he shouted to the hyperactive ape first.

"earthquake!"

"Yaru Ke!"

The entire earth shook violently in an instant, and dust from the rooftops fell wildly.

Xiaoyao and Xiaosheng have grown up a lot; they no longer want to hide behind their mother when they are in danger, unlike before.

Both of them remained calm and focused on the battlefield during the earthquake, which made Mitsuko nod with satisfaction.

On the battlefield, Blaziken was startled at first, then immediately jumped into the air with all its might, temporarily avoiding the damage from the earthquake.

However, the earthquake from the hyperactive ape is powerful and long-lasting. As soon as Blaziken lands, the double-strength earthquake will definitely take away a huge amount of its stamina.

In this critical moment, Ash calmly compared the positions of Blaziken and Slakoth, and then exclaimed with delight.

"The distance is enough, Blaziken, let's settle this with that move!"

"Jump onto the hyperactive ape's head and use close combat!"

Blaziken has always been Ash's trump card for the Petalburg Gym, and its Fighting-type nature gives it a huge advantage when battling Pokémon that are far away.

Ash even taught it close combat so that it could play a crucial role in such an important moment.

However, due to the nature of close-combat moves, the Pokémon's defenses and special defenses will drop significantly after use, making the timing of the move particularly crucial for the trainer.

Xiao Zhi believes that now is the time.

"Cha! Cha! Cha!"

The flames on the Blaziken's wrists burned at their brightest at this moment because of its fighting spirit. It turned lightly in the air and quickly adjusted its falling direction.

It stepped directly onto the hyperactive ape's shoulder. Although the hyperactive ape is called an ape, its two claws are actually similar to the hooked claws of a sloth, and it is not as flexible as a real ape.

So when Blaziken landed on its shoulder, the hyperactive primate, which was still in the Earthquake state, was unable to grab Blaziken's foot and pull it off immediately.

At this point, Qianli realized that something was wrong.

"Immediately defend against the hyperactive ape, use both claws to slash upwards at the same time!"

But at this moment, Blaziken's advantage of having long arms and legs came into play. It only needed to jump slightly upwards to dodge the attack range of the hyperactive ape.

Blaziken's hands and feet, however, can easily hit Apexis's head.

Close combat initiated! Blaziken abandoned its defense and unleashed a fierce barrage of attacks, quickly defeating Ape.

Its hands were completely unable to be raised, and it could only passively endure the pain.

Blaziken boasts impressive physical attack, a 1.5x power boost from its STAB move, double type advantage, and incredibly powerful moves…

After a fierce barrage of blows, Blaziken immediately retreated to its own half of the arena, panting heavily.

Meanwhile, the hyperactive ape had collapsed on the field, its eyes swirling with mosquito coil-like circles.

"Ya~ Lu... Ke..."

After examining it closely, Jin Zhi immediately waved the referee flag, announcing, "The hyperactive monkey is unable to battle, Blaziken wins this round!"

"Great job, Blaziken!"

"just!!!"

[Ding! Blaziken: Affection +5; Intimacy +5]

Ash's side hasn't lost a single Pokémon yet, while Senri has already lost two.

The situation was extremely favorable for his side, and the muscular man couldn't help but reveal a bright smile, seemingly confident of victory.

Even Senri couldn't help but applaud Ash and Blaziken.

"Your combat awareness is outstanding; you are truly remarkable."

"Ah, even though Slaking and Apexis have tried their best, doesn't that mean Dad only has one Pokémon left?"

Xiao Sheng was worried about Qianli.

At this moment, Haruka also had an expression that showed she didn't know whether to be happy for Satoshi or worried about her father.

However, Mitsuko remained completely unperturbed.

"Don't worry, Qianli still has an ace up his sleeve."

That's right, the smiling face disappeared after that.
