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

After another night of revelry, the cruise ship was able to dock at Asagi Port the next day, a very well-planned schedule.

When Ash arrived at the Great Hall with Serena and three other female companions, it was already decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and several battlegrounds had been set up.

Yueju and Wanlong had also arrived, both dressed in formal attire, holding red wine and drinks and gesturing to Xiaozhi from afar.

Ash clearly saw a hint of sharpness in their eyes.

This is a showdown, all-out effort. Let's see who comes out on top!

...

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard the Flowing Current. I am the captain of this ship. I sincerely hope you will have a wonderful and exciting afternoon!"

In the afternoon, the party officially began. The captain of the Water Flow gave the opening speech and explained the rules of the competition.

"To save our esteemed guests' time, all battles at this party will be decided by a single Pokémon in a single match. The strongest player who emerges victorious from this grueling competition will receive a mysterious grand prize!"

"I'm also especially honored to announce that Ash Ketchum, the legendary Red Star of Kanto, is also attending this party! His presence, along with his beautiful female companions, has already added a lot of color to the party!"

Following the captain's gestures, Ash and his friends instantly became the focus of the entire party, and the atmosphere became noisy.

To be honest, Xiao Zhi was quite speechless. Why didn't you just explain the rules properly? Why did you have to bring up yourself?

And he always had to mention his female companions, making everyone focus on some strange things.

"In addition, there are two distinguished guests on board who have come from afar. They are the Heavenly Kings from United States, Mr. Yueju and Ms. Wanlong!"

Fortunately, the captain quickly used the Unova duo to help Ash relieve the pressure, but the people on the ship gradually went from watching to discussing it.

With such a strong person participating in the party, everyone else is destined to be just a participant, so they are even more curious about who will have the last laugh.

For the locals, the hope is naturally that the little AI will win.

Ash, who once defeated the Johto Elite Four single-handedly, has become the representative of the entire Kanto region's fighting strength. He absolutely cannot lose to outsiders!

"Now, let's get this exciting and tense going!" The captain's announcement was immediately met with cheers from the crowd.

"Let's go find some opponents and have some fun," Ash said to the girls with a smile.

Since it was a recreational competition, Ash simply let everyone participate, treating it as a way to train his partners and get a feel for battle.

However, he didn't train any new pets himself, but instead sent out his companions from Orange Island and Johto to crush them.

There's no way around it; the captain just bragged too much, so Ash has to show some skill too.

This is similar to the situation in the anime where Cynthia fights Shinji. If the main Garchomp fights Torterra for more than three rounds, people will think that she is holding back.

So, Ash sent out a bunch of burly guys, including a 20-meter-tall Gyarados, a Forced Life Orb Feraligatr, and a Fireball Guts Ursaring. They beat their opponents so badly on the field that they cried and screamed, but after the battle, they were all excited and asked Ash for autographs and photos.

In particular, One-Punch Snorlax has gained a huge following. Almost every opponent who gets beaten up will go up and hug Snorlax's round belly.

And so, Ash stormed into the semifinals with unstoppable momentum.

The other women didn't have it so easy. Although the ship was mostly filled with wealthy and famous people who didn't train much, there were also some strong trainers among them, which would put the women in a tough fight.

Lillie unfortunately fell outside the top 32, while Serena and Nanami both made it to the quarterfinals, but ultimately stopped there as well.

Sabrina, on the other hand, displayed extraordinary strength in the battle, and even without summoning Alakazam, she successfully entered the top four.

As for the last two spots in the semifinals, needless to say, they will definitely go to the Unova duo.

Kanto vs. Unova: A very dramatic showdown.

Aside from Ash's group, almost no one had high hopes for Sabrina, even though she was a renowned Gym Leader of Goldenrod City in Kanto and a powerful psychic.

The two Elite Four members of Unova specialize in Dark and Ghost types respectively, and they are both absolute counters to Sabrina.

Some even believe that Sabrina might have a better chance of winning against Ash... after all, Ash might deliberately hold back a little to win her favor.

The final draw results weren't as dramatic as they seemed. Ash was matched up against the Ghost-type Elite Four member, Wandragon, while Sabrina was to face off against Clove!

"The singles match between Mr. Lantau and Ms. Nazja will now begin, with Mr. Lantau going first!"

"Sabrina, the Gym Leader of Saffron City, I heard you're also a psychic?" Before the match started, Cranberry said with interest, "You remind me of someone I know."

Sabrina did not respond, but simply stared at her opponent with a blank expression.

"Uh... don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying to pick her up," Yueju quickly explained. "I did meet a pretty powerful esper in Unova..."

"Can we send out our Pokémon now?" Sabrina asked in a cold voice.

It's obvious that Yueju is overthinking things. Naz doesn't care whether he's trying to pick her up or not; she's just putting on a poker face for someone she doesn't know.

"Alright... Commander of the Slashers, I'm counting on you!" Yueju, having been turned away, had no choice but to send out her companion, a steel-armored warrior covered in sharp blades.

"Alakazam, go fight!" Sabrina's side was also getting serious, sending out their main force, Alakazam, which they had been keeping under wraps.

This choice surprised Bulbasaur somewhat. They had both followed each other's matches before. Bulbasaur knew that Sabrina had Slowpoke and Flashy Undead, and he himself had revealed his Panther and Bandana Brawler.

The reason he brought out Bisharp was mainly to counter the Poison-type attacks of Mothra, but who knew that Sabrina would actually bring out a pure Psychic-type that was at a huge disadvantage.

But since he had the advantage, Yueju quickly composed himself and commanded the steel soldiers to launch an attack: "Go! Let's test our knives in the street!"

Alakazam, Charge Bomb!

"Find a way to get past them and continue the attack!"

"Use mental interference! Then teleport to dodge..."

"provocative!"

In a fierce battle, the two displayed a dazzling exchange of attacks from the very beginning. First, Cinnamon used her attribute advantage to force her way into close range and attack, while Sabrina responded without hesitation with her own fighting techniques.

After Steelix cleverly dodged the Energy Blast, Alakazam used Psychic to control its trajectory, manipulating the Fighting-type energy to blast it back towards Steelix's back.

Just as Alakazam was about to teleport away, Steel Soldier preemptively used Taunt, temporarily blocking Alakazam's variation moves!

Boom!

The Fighting-type energy engulfed the body of the Slash Commander, and the gleaming blade simultaneously struck Alakazam's chest, resulting in mutual destruction!

"Hu... Hu..." After the two Pokémon separated again, Alakazam began to pant heavily.

"This is bad. It seems like Commander Cleave took much less damage?" Serena asked, puzzled.

Steel Soldier only had some scratches on his armor, and he looked to be in much better condition than Alakazam.

"Perhaps because she's been specially trained in physical strength, Cranberry's style is quite stable. It remains to be seen how Sabrina will handle it," Ash said in a deep voice.

While it's true that Lanju is a gambler, his gameplay isn't aggressive; he's the type to play steadily and cautiously.

This makes it less likely to expose weaknesses, but it also has some drawbacks... Given Naz's current state, if she can withstand this pressure for a long time, she might have unexpected gains.

"Nonsense!" Instead of pressing her advantage after exchanging damage, Yueju placed a restriction on her opponent, preventing her from using the same move repeatedly.

He was clearly trying to help predict the outcome. There are only four skills in the Formula Battle. By using the double restriction of provocation and unreasonable behavior, and combined with the attribute advantage of the Steel Soldier, Yue Tachibana can easily deduce Sabrina's actions.

Next, she either has to command Alakazam to use a new attack... or she can only use Focus Blast!

Alakazam, Charge Bomb!

"Slay the commander, launch a sneak attack!"

Sure enough, when she had to attack and her superpowers were ineffective, Sabrina once again chose a fighting-type move.

Meanwhile, Lantana boldly signaled for the Commander to charge forward, successfully interrupting Alakazam's special move and severely injuring it with a single blow!

"It's over, street testing..."

"Mental interference!"

hum!

Fortunately, Sabrina reacted quickly. Just as Slash Commander was about to deliver a fatal blow, Alakazam used Psychic to fly into the air, narrowly escaping death.

"Still have a fighting chance... But it's alright, I made the right bet today, and victory will be on my side." Yueju casually tossed a gold coin, her face now showing confidence in winning. "Slay the Commander, Provocation!"

He wasn't in a hurry. If he couldn't defeat Naz in one fell swoop, he would just repeat the attack again.

“Trouble…” Faced with yet another series of restrictions, Natsumi was indeed beginning to waver.

She was wondering if she would lose here.

Ash glanced at the sidelines, but didn't say anything special. He just watched silently with his Alakazam.

That one, once belonged to her Alakazam...

But now it is by Ash's side, shining brightly as one of the absolute main forces, and even in the previous Silver Conference, it forcibly defeated Silver, who is also good at Dark-type, in a six-man sweep!

no! !

(Alakazam, we must win this battle!) Sabrina's icy voice echoed in Alakazam's mind. (He's watching, right in front of him... I absolutely cannot lose!!)

Hu Di sighed softly and nodded silently.

It seems it's going to happen again, with my consciousness completely controlled by Sabrina's superpowers...

Since Naz's change, that kind of thing has never happened again.

Alakazam could understand that Sabrina was genuinely concerned about winning or losing this match.

After all, there was someone watching...

"Huh?" Ash's Alakazam frowned slightly beside the field, clearly having also noticed the problem.
