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

Academia can be niche, but it can't be heretical; doing science is fine, but don't create scientific monsters!

Returning to the battle itself, Ash Ketchum cannot understand any of the above, nor does he need to...

The Dracovish was eager to try, and as its trainer, all it had to do was give commands!

"Attack, Dracovish! Use Water Cannon!"

"Dragon's Might!" "Roar!!"

The opening move is a critical hit. Facing the oncoming water column, the old man roars and unleashes a highly concentrated dragon power!

The dark green beam of light caused the water column to retreat in waves until it completely struck the gill ichthyosaur's body, blasting it more than ten meters away!

"Dichthyosaurus!!" Ash was startled and rushed to check on the Dichthyosaurus's condition, while he himself was completely astonished.

Dragon power… He vaguely remembered hearing about it from Gary; it seemed to be Regidrago's signature move, but why could Charizard use it?!

"I've been through a lot with Charizard. I didn't put it in Charizard Valley or in the backyard of Oak's lab... It was my chosen starter Pokémon, and we've hardly been apart since the beginning of our journey."

Ash softly recounted his past with Charizard, and a similar red light, like that in Charizard's eyes, flickered once more in his own...

The power of the dragon was indeed nearly depleted, but the resonance between the intelligent sprayers was still there!

"Ash... never mind." Ash gave Ash a deep look, but some things remained unsaid... such as telling him to give up using Dracovish in battle.

Well, I'm not in a position to interfere, and besides, Zhiye isn't one to give up easily.

"No matter what, we will not give up!" As expected, Ash chose to persevere, and the damselfish also shakily got up again.

"My damselfly and I have come this far through tireless efforts, and we will persevere to the very end! Damselfly, Dragon Charge!!"

"Dragon's Might!"

hum!

Another fruitless effort. Just as the Gillfish Dragon took its first step, an even thicker beam of dragon light struck, sending it flying even further and crashing down harder!

Ash rushed forward anxiously again, only to find that the ichthyosaur was on the verge of its limit.

Ash and Charizard waited quietly to see if this was the end, or if their bond would awaken a new miracle...

"Whoosh!!" A miracle really happened. The wounded Gillfish Dragon let out an indomitable roar and stood up again!

"That's it!" Ash shouted excitedly. "Don't think about anything else, just hold on to the end! Charge! Use Dragon Charge!!"

"No need to hold back... Dragon's Might!!" "Roar!!"

The power of the dragon erupted for the third time, and Ash and Charizard did not hold back, instead increasing its power once again!

Surprisingly, the ichthyosaur was able to keep charging forward despite the attacks, and finally, with sheer courage, it charged right up to the old charismatic creature and crashed headfirst into its chest!

"Okay, that's pretty impressive~"

Ash gave a calm evaluation, while the Dracovish sprang out a row of sharp spikes from its abdomen, locking onto Charizard's body like a claw, and taking the opportunity to open its blood-red mouth!

"Go, ichthyosaur! Use your gills to bite!!"

"Woo...woo?!" Unfortunately, the Gillfish Dragon was ultimately unable to launch a desperate counterattack.

The jet-black dragon claws shot out like lightning, instantly grabbing the gill ichthyosaur's neck. Its large head could no longer extend forward, and only muffled whimpers could be heard coming from its mouth.

Such a sudden surge in power is understandable... The reason why the Gill Bite Dragon was selected as one of the Journey's Creatures is because of the combat strength brought by its gill bite.

The mastermind hiding behind the scenes wouldn't let it fall until it successfully unleashed this move in battle...

But Ash just wouldn't give it that chance!

The old man continued to exert more force with his claws. For a creature like a ichthyosaur with a head poking out from its tail, grabbing its neck is like controlling its vital point; it can be manipulated at will.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

With a swift swing of his arm, the damselfish became a punching bag in the old man's hands, being slammed repeatedly to the ground from left to right with increasing ferocity!

Just like the Hulk slamming Loki down~

Only after confirming that its opponent was completely defeated did Charizard release Dracovish, while simultaneously mimicking Ash by giving the middle finger to the sky.

Ugh, what a stingy alpaca!

"Even Dracovish won't make it... But I will never give up! Go, Dragonite!" Pikachu will definitely be the last to appear, so Ash's fifth Pokémon will inevitably be Dragonite.

"Huh?" After the Dracovish left the field, Ash and Charizard's barely suppressed anger subsided, and Dragonite seemed to have noticed as well, greeting them amicably.

This is the normal state. After eliminating other interference, the Smart-type Charizard combination, which possesses the power to control dragons, is highly favored by Dragon-type Pokémon.

"Hello there!" Ash greeted him with a smile. "If you're ready, we're about to attack! Dragon Power!"

"Dragonite, use Dragon Dance to dodge! Then attack with Dragon Claw!" Seeing the dark green beam coming, Ash quickly told Dragonite to circle and dodge, and then launched a full-speed attack on Charizard.

"Dragon Charge!"

boom!

The jet-black dragon instantly activated, easily dodging the dragon claw's stab during the head-on collision, and then rammed the Dragonite away!

Ash's Dragonite was ultimately lacking in speed.

The old Charizard often trains against a Rex that can instantly reach Mach 2.5, and the reflexes he has honed through this experience are something that Dragonite can't match.

"Grab it and throw it onto the Earth!"

While Dragonite was still adjusting its posture in the air, Charizard accelerated and circled behind it, grabbing its opponent with both claws and plunging it downwards with all its might!

"Oh no... That's it! Dragonite, blow a whirlwind downwards!!" At the critical moment, Ash had another flash of inspiration, and Dragonite managed to blow a strong whirlwind, finally managing to stop before crashing to the ground.

"Break free with the Dragon Dance!"

"Use Dragon Charge!"

The two dragon-types maneuvered at their limit near the ground. First, Dragonite used Dragon Dance to barely dodge to the side, but Charizard immediately summoned the dragon-shaped energy around its body and rushed up to attack, knocking Dragonite away again!

This time, however, the Dragonite was knocked into the air.

"We have a chance... We have to try no matter what! Dragonite, use Draco Meteor!" "Woo!!"

With a roaring cry, the massive energy ball exploded in mid-air, transforming into countless meteors that crashed down.

Meanwhile, the Dragonite inside also maintained its diving posture, crashing down together with the meteor!

"This is our full power... Dragonite Meteor!!!"

"This move..." Ash raised an eyebrow, seemingly lost in thought.

Old Spray didn't make a move, letting large chunks of meteorite keep falling around him.

It wasn't until Dragonite was within arm's reach that it unleashed the energy it had been accumulating!

"Dragon's Might!!"

Chapter 1015 Decisive Victory V: Thunderous Fury!

Dragonite also had to leave the field... It was hit at close range by the power of the dragon, and it had no chance of continuing.

Charizard was also damaged, Ash's two Dragon-type attacks wore down most of its stamina... mainly from Dragonite.

However, after that, Ash seemed a little dazed.

Dragonite's last move was actually quite interesting, and it reminded Ash of something else.

(Hey, are you there?)

(To begin.)

(Have you heard of Eos Island and Eos Energy?)

(What the heck?) The management sprite was so surprised that it blurted out in a hushed accent, (What you're mentioning is even more of a side branch than Pasio.)

(So ​​it does exist?) Ash's eyes lit up.

(What exactly do you want to do?)

(That Dragonite Gathering move just looks familiar.) Ash thought to himself with amusement. (Our Ash has really contributed a lot to the spin-off games.)

The spin-off MOBA game, Pokémon Unite, is set on Eos Island, which Ash just mentioned.

With the help of the Eos energy on that island, Pokémon can not only freely evolve and degenerate, but also use special Gathering Moves.

For example, Ash knows that Dragonite's Gathering Move is called "Meteor Shower," and the skill description is exactly the same as Dragonite's Starfall... It's obviously a copy of Ash's move by the game company~

Charizard also has a synergy move, which seems to be a super-powerful version of the Earth Throw.

Ash is now having a wild idea: is Epic Energy really necessary in those kinds of team-up moves?

If not, is it possible for me to train certain Pokémon to master those special and powerful moves, and give them various additional effects from the game...?

(Using natural energy should be possible, as it's the foundation of this planet. However, this type of powerful technique requires a combination of energies of various attributes to be effective. Collecting more sources of life would be helpful.)

(Okay, I'll head out to sea after I finish battling the pipes.) With the Pokémon saying that, Ash was really tempted.

By stimulating the source of life, the partners' control over specific attributes is enhanced, ultimately accumulating energy to a point where they can collectively support a combined attack...

It sounds complicated, but it's very promising.

The alpaca faction, who have always been my enemy, must have some Life Source in stock... I'll just go and steal it from them!

"Charizard..." Ash was staring intently at the dragon opposite him.
