Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

"Chankey has lost its ability to battle. Isn't Inspector Nurse Joy going to send out a second Pokémon?"

Su Hao pointed to Chansey, which was lying in the deep pit, its eyes spinning in circles.

"Come back, Chansey." Joy bit her lip. She hadn't expected Milotic to be so strong, but as long as it was there, they still had a chance of winning.

Joy stroked the second Poké Ball in his hand, feeling reassured.

"Thank you for your hard work." Nurse Joy lightly touched Chansey's Poké Ball with her lips, then threw out the second Poké Ball. "Latias, mission begin!"

"Come back, Milotic." Su Hao recalled Milotic and, together with Joy, threw out the second Luxury Ball. "Tiancée, another opponent like you has entered the fray!"

As the red light faded, the battle between two extremely rare creatures—a Mythical Pokémon and a Legendary Pokémon—began on the field of the Dark Grey Gym.

Pokémon: Latias

Type: [Dragon + Psychic]

Gender: Female

Feature: [Floating]

Level: [Professional Late Stage]

"Latias...!"

Su Hao's lips curled up slightly. Sure enough, Inspector Nurse Joy already possessed the legendary Pokémon Latias during this period!

"Tianxi...?"

Joey's eyes widened, his pupils dilating.

According to records within the Kanto League, she had the privilege of learning about Diancie, the Mythical Pokémon who lived in the Kalos region, a princess of the mining kingdom.

Rock, fairy type!

Even though Latias is slightly higher level than Diancie, it is still unknown how much power Latias can exert under type advantage.

Diancie floated in the air not far from the ground, her pink pupils looking at Latias opposite her with some doubt and uncertainty.

"It's not the Latias we know. Just fight it normally."

Su Hao's voice was like a stabilizing force, instantly calming the still hesitant Diancie down.

Since this Latias wasn't the one it recognized, it proceeded to slaughter Dragon-type Pokémon indiscriminately!

"Acting Gym Leader Su Hao, this is a huge surprise! A Rock-type Mythical Pokémon in the Rock Gym, how interesting!"

Joey's gaze turned serious, and he felt a long-lost sense of pressure.

Even though Fairy-type moves are weak to Dragon-type moves, Latias still has Psychic-type moves!

Before the outcome was decided, Joey ordered, "Latias, Steelwing!"

"Sharp stone attack!"

At Su Hao's command, Diancie raised her hands slightly, and sharp rock pillars, after breaking through the ice on the ground, pierced towards Latias flying at low altitude from all directions.

Latias's red "wings" on its back were tinged with a silver luster, and the sharp steel wings turned into a silver flash, instantly shattering the rock pillar to reveal a smooth and flat cut surface.

Seeing this, Joey confidently shouted, "That's it, Latias, attack!"

Su Hao was not surprised that Diancie's Stone Attack was cut off by Latias. At most, this was just an appetizer. As a legendary Pokémon, Latias was clearly on the same level as Diancie.

At this point, it's all about the trainer's trump cards and resources!

"Wave missile!"

Aura power surged around Su Hao, and the aura power that had been in a connected state flowed to Diancie's hands, where, with Su Hao's assistance, two basketball-sized aura missiles were formed.

Diancie increased her floating height and, just as Latias was about to crash into her, pinned the Aura Missiles to the steel wings on either side.

The Fighting-type move, which was extremely effective against Steel Wings, caused Steel Wings to shatter instantly, and Latias, losing its balance, crashed headfirst into Diancie.

"A wave missile!?"

Joy felt that every move the other party made touched on his blind spots. Was Diancie a Pokémon that could learn Aura Sphere?

But now, it's also a good opportunity.

Thinking of this, Joey's eyes lit up: "Latias, stir up the waves!"

Her Latias's race comes from the Water City, so Latias has some knowledge of Water-type moves.

In an instant, a giant wave surged up, and Latias held Diancie tightly, letting it withstand the pounding of the surfing attack.

Although Tianxi seemed to be in danger, Su Hao remained calm.

With the waveguide connection, he could know Diancie's current state even with his eyes closed.

With her mid-stage professional-level strength, coupled with her accumulated candy intake, Diancie's six stats are like an all-around development effort value, with each one being outstanding.

It was just Latias's Surf attack; it couldn't kill Diancie instantly!

His real purpose was to get Latias, who could fly at high speed, to approach Diancie on his own: "Dianci, Magic Flash, blast them away!"

Now that Latias has delivered itself to his doorstep, Su Hao has no reason not to seize this opportunity.

Amidst the raging waves of the Pyrenees Gym, a bright pink light burst forth from the center, and with Latias's cry of pain, the waves collapsed!

"Latias!!"

Joey's confident smile froze, and he looked on in disbelief.

What's the deal with that Diancie?

Its aura should be weaker than Latias's; both are legendary beasts and mythical beasts, so there's no reason for one to be stronger than the other...

Su Hao chuckled as he looked at Latias, whose body was covered in scorch marks still steaming and who was breathing slightly heavily.

As expected of the legendary Infinite Pokémon, its stamina is frighteningly abundant.

If it were the Sonic Dragon that had once been on the White River facing Diancie, who had grown stronger over time, this Magic Dazzle would have been enough to kill it instantly.

"Latias, regenerate!" Joy breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully the power of the attack was still within Latias's tolerance range.

Under Joy's gaze, a golden light flashed across Latias's body, and all the damage caused by Diancie dissipated, allowing Latias to return to his peak condition!

Tsk, I got tricked.

Joey was determined to keep Latias and Diancie at a safe distance, and even if they got close, they had to break off immediately.

Just as Joey's heart was beginning to settle, Su Hao said softly, "Tianxi, let's recover a bit too, Moonlight!"

You will recover on your own, and I will also be on the moonlight. Let's see who can outlast whom.

Su Hao was very curious whether Joey and Latias had any other tricks up their sleeves.

After the illusory full moon above Diancie restored her to full strength, Su Hao decided to try out another trump card that he hadn't used in the battle.

After the University Cup finals, Su Hao obtained the Shenzhou Alliance's internal secret—the "Perpetual Enhancement Manual."

After studying for a period of time, Su Hao

He returned the manual, having already clearly memorized the key points of the technique.

Perpetual Enhancement, in a sense, is a special skill that only some Pokémon with high natural talent and understanding can learn.

The prerequisite for learning this skill is being able to multitask.

Pokémon need to expend some effort to intentionally manipulate energy and maintain the existence of their enhanced moves.

After a period of time, even without releasing several enhanced moves in succession, the enhanced state will still automatically climb to its peak.

Once the Pokémon reaches its peak, this state will disappear after a period of time if it does not engage in battle, so the Pokémon must dedicate its energy to maintaining its energy level.

To put it into actual combat, you must maintain this state while unleashing other moves to attack.

This is why the skill of multitasking is a prerequisite.

Furthermore, maintaining this state for an extended period of time is extremely taxing on a Pokémon's energy and puts a significant strain on its body.

In general, you need a Pokémon that can multitask, both strengthening and battling, and also has excellent comprehension and physical constitution.

No wonder this kind of genuine skill-enhancing technique has failed to gain widespread adoption.

Su Hao remembered that Li Luoyan said his Infernape had spent more than half a year learning this skill under systematic teaching.

Even with Diancie's ability to multitask, she was only slightly faster than Infernape.

It took an hour.

Unfortunately, neither Big Tiger nor the others have ever tried multitasking before, and they are still struggling to learn it from scratch.

Since Latias can regenerate itself, and if you can't kill it instantly, it will be back to normal in the next second, then just strengthen it to the point where you can kill Latias instantly in one move!

Although Diancie's Earth Control isn't as powerful as Xerneas's, at least the enhancement is real!

From the start of the battle, Diancie has been intentionally building up her control over the earth, and now is the time to unleash it!

"It's time! Earth Mastery, then another Magic Flash to send it flying!"
