Pokémon, Ash is going to become a perfect man from now on.

"Go, Scyther! You have to beat him no matter what!!"

Amidst Xiao Shi's almost hoarse roar, Scyther stubbornly cleaved through the storm blocking its path. Enduring endless energy attacks, its already white eyes glared, and with its last bit of will, it unleashed a fatal blow on Alakazam!

hum!

The energy storm surrounding Alakazam suddenly began to twist and collapse, then burst forth with a dazzling halo that was so bright that the audience couldn't open their eyes!

"Alakazam, use Psychic." In the moment when everyone was temporarily blinded, the only thing they could hear was Ash's sigh as he gave the command.

When the audience regained their view, they saw Alakazam still hovering cross-legged, and Scyther whose body was controlled by psychic powers.

Its blade was already against Alakazam's neck, but it could no longer swing downwards...

"Scyther...you've done great, come back and rest..." Xiao Shi gritted his teeth and reluctantly recalled Scyther, his face full of resentment.

In fact, Scyther had already lost consciousness when it broke through the energy storm. It only managed to adopt a sword-wielding posture with a last shred of willpower.

Alakazam's psychic interference wasn't intended to attack; it was simply to help stabilize Scyther's body...

"Come back too, Alakazam... Your opponent was very determined. You must have gained a lot from this battle." Ash called Alakazam back as well.

Its current condition isn't good either; the final blow from the Scyther isn't so easy to withstand.

That strike contained not only the full power of Scyther, but also all of Gary's obsession over the years!

He was so eager to win that he wanted to beat Ash no matter what... even just once!

However, there's no room for sentimentality in a competition. Even if they're as close as brothers, Ash will absolutely not back down!

"It's time for the final battle... The final battle is yours, Charizard!"

In the final, decisive moment, Ash handed over the last stage to Charizard!

It will break that curse and reclaim the Quartz Champion that it lost in the original story!

"Roar!!" As the Poké Ball landed, a furious roar, accompanied by a fierce aura, instantly swept across the entire field!

This aura moved everyone present, and even the Poké Balls that Lance carried on the main stands trembled slightly as a result.

“That Charizard…” The Dragon King was slightly taken aback. He sensed the wildness unique to dragons in Ash’s Charizard!

drop!

But just as he was about to confirm further, his private communicator suddenly started ringing incessantly!

problem occurs!

...

"Umbreon... I'll beg you one last time, use Wish!" Faced with Ash's last trump card, Gary chose to send out Umbreon.

However, the latter only released the wish before being swapped out by Shigeru.

Ash watched silently without instructing Charizard to take any action.

"I thought you would have Umbreon get a little boosted," Ash said with a sigh.

Blastoise has High Spin, so the slow effect of the Curse won't have much of an impact on it. On the contrary, the increased attack and defense make it suitable for a stalemate with Charizard.

"There's no need for that... This will also be my last one!" Gary tossed the Poké Ball with a flick of his wrist. "Go, Blastoise!"

"Kami!" The giant tortoise, re-entering the arena, roared with the same fighting spirit and replenished its strength with the help of the moon spirit's prayer.

Now, the two Pokémon are in exactly the same state.

"This is the final battle, Blastoise! ​​We must give it our all, no matter what!"

"Charizard, we're the same... Huh?!"

Just as the two sides were about to clash, Ash's will suddenly wavered!

He received a sudden notification from the management sprite that Team Rocket's invasion operation had officially begun!

Giovanni has taken very good precautions this time. Just a few minutes ago, a large number of grunts invaded the eight major towns of Kanto at almost the same time... All the gym leaders except Cerulean have been mobilized!

The situation in the Johto region is still unclear, but it's likely that a storm is brewing there... and it might even be more serious than in Kanto!

Their goal this time is very clear: to retaliate against the alliance's previous attacks and to cause as much destruction as possible!

With the championship within reach on one side and evil rampaging on the other, Ash is caught in a dilemma...

Chapter 230 The Decisive Victory: The Counterattack Against the Three Primary Colors of Kanto! (3000+ words)

"Hey, could it be that those guys are causing trouble again?"

As close friends who grew up together, Gary naturally knows Ash very well.

There's only one possibility that Ash would waver during this kind of battle!

The Rockets are stirring things up again, and the situation may be quite urgent, to the point where they might have to consider forfeiting the game!

“Yeah…” Ash nodded helplessly, “I didn’t expect it to be at a time like this. It’s really a bit troublesome.”

Ash is really torn right now. He doesn't want to choose to give up the match, let Gary admit defeat, or have Damaran announce a pause in the match.

This would ruin the integrity of the final match and would definitely leave him and Xiao Mao with regrets...

"The two trainers currently battling, I need you to continue your battle!" Suddenly, Lance's voice came from the stands.

He was already riding his Dragonite and circling over the entire venue!

"Please believe in us, the Four Heavenly Kings... No matter what happens, the Quartz Conference can continue!" Amidst the puzzled gazes of the audience, Lance made a promise on behalf of the entire Sekigahara, along with his expectations for the two rising stars!

"Let the battle begin again! I look forward to seeing who prevails!!"

"Whoosh!" With that, the Dragonite beneath him let out a loud roar and sped off towards the capital.

"We're leaving too!" Lorelei and the other two simultaneously threw out Poké Balls, and three more Dragonite took to the air!

For the mobile reinforcements during the Alliance Conference, Yulongdu clearly went all out, even transferring a group of gods from his hometown, the Dragon Sanctuary, in advance to serve as mounts!

With the future champion leading three Elite Four members to reinforce Johto, Ash clearly doesn't need to worry about the situation there.

The only thing he needs to focus on now is Kanto, but Ash isn't so anxious anymore.

He chose to trust the Elite Four, all the Gym Leaders currently fighting, and the Frontier Brains who had come to reinforce him!

They've made such meticulous plans and arrangements beforehand, they're absolutely confident they can weather this crisis!

After his final showdown with Shigeru, he will rush to provide support immediately!

"So, are you going to continue fighting?" Xiao Mao asked with a smile.

"Of course... I'm really sorry for wavering during the match, but I won't hold back from here on out!"

Ash's fighting spirit returned, and he and Gary, without prior arrangement, directed their partner to launch an operation!

"Charizard, Dragon Dance!" "Blastoise, High Speed ​​Spin!"

The final battle began, with Charizard taking the lead by performing an energetic dance, while Blastoise also retracted its limbs into its shell and spun straight at him!

"Use the Dragon Claw!"

"Just use a water sprayer!"

boom!

Just as Charizard unleashed its claws, Blastoise simultaneously spewed out a terrifying torrent of water, crashing down fiercely forward like a tidal wave!

"Use its tortoise shell to fly!"

Having learned its lesson from Steelix's previous mistake, Charizard was determined not to repeat it. It used its claws to pierce the water curtain, precisely striking Blastoise's shell, and then used the momentum to flap its wings and fly away, avoiding the subsequent water attack with minimal cost!

"Use Aura Spheres!" Of course, Xiao Shi was unwilling to let his opponent escape like this, so he immediately commanded Blastoise to fire two energy balls from its cannon and relentlessly pursue Charizard!

"Charizard, use Dragon Dance to dodge!"

Aura Sphere is a sure-fire move, but Ash didn't let Charizard react immediately. Instead, he let the two energies hang behind him while he used Boost again.

As it hovered in the air, it seemed to be intentionally locking onto Blastoise's position, while slowing down to allow the Aura Sphere behind it to gradually approach...

"Hmph, trying to play these tricks on me?" Gary sneered, seemingly having seen through Ash and Charizard's plan.

Sure enough, after circling around again, Charizard suddenly swooped down from the air, launching two Aura Spheres at Blastoise!

Blastoise, use your full power Water Spray!!

boom! !

The terrifying ocean current erupted again, its range so vast that it instantly swept across the entire area. Since Xiao Shi had already confirmed Charizard's attack pattern, he simply targeted both of its Aura Missiles as well!

"Charizard, you have to hold on! Charge with your claws!!"

"what?!"

To Xiao Shi's astonishment, Charizard did not dodge as expected. Instead, it swung its claws forward, curled up, and flew like a shuttle to face the waves in front of it!

boom! !

The pursuing Aura Sphere was overwhelmed by the clever water flow, while the wave, which was like a city wall, was forcibly drilled with a large hole by the Charizard, and its claws, wrapped with the power of the dragon, fiercely slashed across the Blastoise's body!

"Grab it while you can!" "Roar!"

Ash had no intention of giving his opponent a chance to breathe. Charizard let out a deafening roar and, carrying Blastoise, soared into the sky!

"Don't let it succeed! Quickly use High Speed ​​Spin to break free!" Of course, Xiao Mao knew that the sky was the opponent's home ground, so he immediately commanded Blastoise to forcefully spin its body, which smashed away Charizard's claws.
