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

At Ash's shout, Farfetch'd once again used its signature move, Wild Swipe, which instantly knocked Pelipper back.

It even managed to hit a vital spot.

"What an amazing Farfetch'd! Ash, you've trained it exceptionally well!"

"You flatter me, Miss Naki, your Pelipper is also excellent."

At this moment, Ash silently counted in his mind, "Hit a vital point once."

This gull truly lives up to its name, Nachi's gull. Its defense is outstanding. Even when hit by a powerful swipe that strikes a vital spot, it quickly regroups as if nothing happened.

Xiao Zhi was delighted to see this.

"Maybe today I can get those three critical hits on Farfetch'd's vital points for its evolution into a Pelipper!"

Just now, he had Farfetch'd use the Energy Gathering skill while defending, precisely to increase his chances of hitting a vital point by two levels.

After all, Farfetch'd's evolution conditions are too demanding; without using the Energy Gathering technique, it's hard to say when it would be completed.

In normal field battles, Farfetch'd's opponents are either too weak, and he is knocked down with a single hit to a vital point.

Either it's too strong, or Farfetch'd can only be defeated by a righteous gang fight with its friends.

Sometimes you might even encounter vehicles that are going too fast.

Once an opponent escapes a certain range, Farfetch'd's battle judgment will be reset and refreshed, making it unable to complete the evolution judgment, as it is a natural warrior honed in Galar.

It's really not easy.

Therefore, Ash has high hopes for this gym battle!

As one of the strongest Gym Leaders in the Hoenn region, Nakia's Pokémon are strong and tough enough against Farfetch'd due to her type disadvantage, and she won't be easily defeated.

Furthermore, gym battles are one-on-one battles, and there is no possibility of a Pokémon running away during the battle...

It seems like one of the perfect places for Farfetch'd to evolve.

Of course, this was just the muscular man's pre-match fantasy; in a real fight, the situation could change in an instant.

Nakie is a mature woman who takes every battle very seriously, and she won't let her Pelipper be easily defeated by Farfetch'd.

"Ash, your Farfetch'd is really powerful, but this is a flying paradise!"

"Children who yearn for the sky will be protected by the blue sky here. Let me show you the true power of the toucan!"

"Puck, use Hurricane!"

"Kick, kick!"

A glint flashed in the beak's sharp eyes, and it quickly began to circle the area while vigorously flapping its wings.

Suddenly, a strong wind arose in the air, disrupting the rhythm of the farfalle duck's flight.

"Is this what a storm is?"

Xiaoyao and the others watching from the sidelines quickly grabbed the chairs they were sitting on to prevent themselves from being sucked in by the storm.

This is a powerful special attack move of the Flying type with a power of 110.

Although it wasn't raining at the time, its hit rate was only 70%, but the wide-ranging impact of the storm on the site was already enormous.

"Fargo duck, fly upwards quickly and break out of the eye of the storm!"

"Duck!"

That's the downside of formal battles like Gym battles; there are no natural obstacles on the field, whether on the ground or in the air, for Pokémon to hide from.

Farfetch'd flapped its wings and flew upwards, but it was, after all, a duck, and a fighting duck at that.

How could a flight speed possibly exceed that of a gale?

At this moment, the Peacock increased its speed again, and the range of the storm instantly expanded, sweeping upwards, and Farfetch'd was sucked back in.

"Damn it, ducks can't fly very high after all."

Just then, Ash caught his hat, which was about to be blown away. His beastly instincts were instantly awakened, and his eyes locked onto the Pelipper, which was flapping its wings to maintain the storm, located diagonally below Farfetch'd.

"Farfetch'd, now's your chance! Throw the green onion in your hand like a boomerang into the center of the storm and unleash a combo!"

"Duck? Duck!"

Upon hearing Ash's command, Farfetch'd was startled at first, then struggled to steady itself in the storm and immediately threw its giant green onion downwards.

This scallion is no ordinary scallion; it is thick, heavy, and tough, and the force generated by its rotation actually broke free from the constraints of the eye of the storm.

Even on the outskirts of the storm, pulled by the wind, it caught up with the beak that was circling and unable to escape while maintaining its skills.

Soon, the spinning leek struck the bigmouth gull.

The leek spun around and struck the big-billed gull several times, one of its attacks hitting a vital spot again.

"What?" Naki exclaimed incredulously.

"Kill!"

The gull was hit by the series of slashes and immediately paused in pain, the storm instantly dissipating.

"Okay, the second time!"

Ash was very lucky in this battle, hitting vital points one after another.

"If we just do it one more time, we can switch Farfetch'd. When the battle ends, Farfetch'd will be able to evolve into Sirfetch'd."

With that in mind, Ash quickly issued another attack command to Farfetch'd.

"Farfetch'd, let's press our advantage and unleash our combo again!"

Although Pelipper can resist Bug-type combos, it can attack multiple times at once, making it more likely to hit a vital point.

Unfortunately, at that moment, the weak cry of the Farfetch'd could be heard from the center of the gradually dissipating storm.

The leek bounced back and was caught firmly in the leek duck's hand, but it was too exhausted to fight anymore.

Ash has rarely led Farfetch'd in tough battles, and he's forgotten that Farfetch'd is extremely fragile.

He cannot compare to the other seasoned, muscular Pokémon in his current team.

Farfetch'd, already fragile, was hit by Hurricane, a move that was weak to it. Under the terrifying power of the opponent's STAB move, Farfetch'd was immediately unable to battle.

It floated down to the ground, its eyes filled with mosquito coil circles.

"What? How could it end like this? I can't accept it!" Ash had been so hopeful.

"So close... Oh, heavens, how cruel you are to me!"

Chapter 472 Taking Xiao Zhi's things will have serious consequences!

As the referee waved the flag, Ash had no choice but to recall Farfetch'd into his Poké Ball.

"Ash, your Farfetch'd is really well-trained, but unfortunately it's still a bit lacking compared to my Pelipper."

With a favorable start, Naki smiled happily.

Perhaps it's because Naki has held a high position for many years and has a naturally aloof and arrogant older sister vibe.

So when she does smile, although she is stunningly beautiful, it always gives people the feeling that she is looking down on them and mocking them.

Of course, she didn't mean it that way, but when Xiaozhi, who was extremely disappointed at the moment, saw this smile, his eyes still twitched involuntarily.

He made the decision immediately.

"Pikachu, come up here for a moment."

"Pikachu?"

"That's right, it's you, go for it!" Ash shouted down from the platform railing again.

A petty, muscular man.ing

Pikachu immediately jumped out of May's arms in the ground audience seats and quickly hopped onto Ash's shoulder, who was currently on the platform in mid-air.

"What a clever Pikachu! Its strength should not be underestimated."

Seeing that Ash seemed to be planning to send Pikachu into battle, Nachi immediately put on a serious expression.

She could never forget how this seemingly harmless Pikachu easily supplied power to the entire rocket launch site.

Its internal energy is absolutely ridiculously strong, and Pikachu's Electric-type moves are four times more effective against a Flying/Water-type Pelipper.

Basically, Naki's chances of winning are slim.

This is precisely why Ash sent out Pikachu; he wanted to have a crushing victory.

Who told Naki to defeat Farfetch'd?

"With Farfetch'd dead, I have no intention of explaining right and wrong!" Ash said with a rainbow cat face.

Of course, he still enjoys the battles, and Ash doesn't like engaging in pointless battles. (Except when he's giving wild Pokémon some comfort.)

So he made a last-minute decision to add some restrictions to our little mouse before Pikachu officially made his appearance.

This will make the upcoming battles more interesting and also help Pikachu get some practice.

Ash immediately prepared to take out the weighted equipment that Pikachu usually carried during training from his spatial storage.

However, just as he reached into his backpack as usual to access the system space, an unexpected event occurred.

Generally speaking, as a system space, Xiao Zhi can take something out of it without making a mistake.

But there are always exceptions. After all, a living creature capable of moving freely had just entered the space not long ago.

That's right, it's the purple crystal that Ash accidentally threw into his spatial dimension and immediately decided to devour.

Just as Ash was about to take something, it happened to have eaten all the natural energy crystals in the space grid it was in.

Its incredibly intelligent brain quickly assessed its current recovery status and then beeped, "Beep, beep beep!" (I need to find another place to eat!)

As a psychic-type mythical beast, Deoxys's teleportation, while unable to break through the barriers of the system space, can still allow it to move between different cells within that space.

With this instantaneous teleportation, it directly replaced the weight collar that Ash was originally going to take, and Ash caught it in his hand as if it had walked right into a trap.

"Beep beep?" (How could this be?)

"Huh? How did I take it out?" Ash asked, puzzled as he pulled out the Deoxys crystal.

After scanning its surroundings, Deoxys immediately realized that this might be its only chance to escape.
