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

He will lash out at Inspector Joey with the whip of absolute defeat!

"Another skill I've never heard of before..."

Joey touched his somewhat numb chest, having lost count of how many times he had been shocked today.

Even if you don't understand what move Diancie is preparing, you can still see the aura surrounding Diancie and the rising momentum.

They all say the same thing—you'll lose if you don't give it your all.

Gritting his teeth, Joey shouted, "Latias, full power Mist Ball!"

At this moment, Joey still harbored a sliver of hope.

As long as Latias can negate a portion of the power of the opponent's attack, he will still have a chance to use Regeneration to recover!

Chapter 352 Getting into trouble

Latias's signature move, Mist Ball, is so powerful that the fact that no Latias uses it in the game speaks volumes about its strength.

However, the real-world Mist Sphere contains a massive amount of Latias's dense spiritual energy, enough to vaporize, combined with Dragon-type energy that is compatible with most types, resulting in an extremely powerful move.

In an instant, a huge sphere, five or six times larger than Latias itself, gathered above Latias's head. The sphere was transparent white and surrounded by misty feathers.

These feathers act like accelerants, creating an even stronger explosion when they come into contact with the exploding sphere (fire).

This is the foundation and strength of Latias as a legendary Pokémon.

Unfortunately, Diancie is clearly much more exaggerated than Latias.

Diancie was born from the only pure Fairy-type Tier 1 God origin, and has a natural affinity for Fairy-type energy. Powerful Herb eliminates the aftercast delay of Earth Mastery, and her Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed ​​are boosted to the maximum.

Finally, there is the radiant power originating from the God of Light, which, under the enhancement of the radiant power, even the ever-changing magical shimmering lights are tinged with a layer of golden light.

Without a doubt, this is Diancie's strongest form right now.

A full-force strike that surpasses professional level and approaches the peak of gym level!

At this moment, the space around Diancie seemed to be under immense pressure, and it began to tremble faintly.

Then, a dazzling burst of golden magic erupted!

Under Latias's horrified dragon eyes, his all-out mist sphere looked like winter snow meeting the summer sun.

Melts instantly, shatters at the slightest touch!

"How can it be!?"

Joey could only watch helplessly as Latias was completely engulfed by that terrifying magical shimmer.

Subsequently, the energy barrier of the Pewter Gym spontaneously activated, enveloping the trainer.

The next moment, a tremor that could be felt even on the other side of Pewter City struck. The powerful explosion blew the roof off the Pewter Gym and exposed the soil beneath the foundation, as if the ground had been plowed by a missile.

"I'm going to cause trouble!"

It was Su Hao's first time battling a legendary Pokémon, and in his excitement, he suddenly remembered that he was still battling in someone else's gym!

Before he could take any remedial action, more bad news arrived.

"boom--!"

With a loud crash, the supporting pillar of the Dark Gray Dojo broke, and in an instant, the entire dojo turned into ruins, with dust and smoke spreading everywhere.

With the hum of the energy barrier ringing in his ears, Su Hao looked at the ruins before him, sweating profusely, and thought to himself, "We're doomed."

What should I do if I accidentally blew up someone else's dojo? Need help urgently!

Meanwhile, Inspector Joey silently gazed at Latias, who lay unconscious in the center of the ruins, his body covered in burn marks from the fairy light.

One-hit kill on a legendary Pokémon!

Nurse Joy met this newly hatched Latias while working as a Pokémon Nurse.

At that time, this Latias was being chased by Pokémon hunters and fled all the way to Saffron City.

Fortunately, Sabrina, the Gym Leader of Saffron City, intervened, the Pokémon hunter was brought to justice, and the injured Latias was taken care of by Nurse Joy.

After a while, Latias ended up becoming Joey's partner.

It was around that time that Nurse Joy conceived the idea of ​​becoming a Pokémon Inspector.

Thanks to Latias's unfathomable stamina as a legendary Pokémon, they have overcome countless obstacles to get to where they are today.

And now, Latias has been instantly killed by his opponent in one move—

Joey was silent for a moment, then quickly left the energy barrier and came to Latias's side. He hurriedly took out a powerful healing medicine from his small bag and carefully applied it to the most severely injured part of Latias's wing.

Joey said remorsefully, "I'm sorry, I misjudged their strength and made you suffer..."

Knowing she was no match for him, she would have chosen to concede defeat in the past.

"Latias, how is it?"

Su Hao led Diancie to the center of the ruins and looked at Latias with concern.

"I used to be a nurse at the Pokémon Center, after all. My wound has been treated, and now I just need to rest..."

Joey shook her head, looking at Su Hao.

Don't underestimate yourself.

Then, she glanced at Diancie with a sigh: "So that's how it is. This is your full strength now... This time, I've suffered a complete defeat."

In Joey's eyes, although Diancie's breathing was much more labored, she was clearly still able to continue fighting.

Latias, however, was already exhausted and unable to fight.

"So... what about our original bet?"

Su Hao asked hesitantly, afraid that Joey might change her mind because she was unhappy about losing.

"Hehe, of course it counts. I will postpone the assessment of Dark Grey Gym for a while."

Seeing Su Hao's expression, as if he was afraid she would change her mind, Joey couldn't help but chuckle.

"Speaking of which, if you're so strong, why are you only the acting gym leader of the Pewter Gym... With your strength, you could easily apply to establish your own gym." Joy asked, puzzled.

"With your Diancie as your signature, whether it's a Rock-type or Fairy-type gym, there will surely be a constant stream of challengers."

Upon hearing this, Su Hao and Tianxi, who had relaxed, both froze for a moment.

Then, Su Hao touched his nose and said softly, "We are just passing through here, there is no need for us to apply for a dojo."

"......I see."

Joey thought that it was probably because Su Hao was from another region that he didn't plan to apply for a dojo in the Kanto region.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and Su Hao turned his gaze to Diancie.

The battle was long over, yet Diancie remained in a state of enhanced Earth Control, which was evidence of her permanent enhancement.

Su Hao asked with concern over the waveguide channel, "How are you feeling?"

This was the first time Diancie had tried going all out, and Su Hao was worried that it might experience some discomfort.

"It's okay~ Although I'm a little tired, I can definitely keep going. Even after turning it off, it only takes about a minute to get back to my current state!"

"Yes, be sure to turn this mode off when you feel uncomfortable."

“Okay…” Tianxi’s voice was soft in the waveguide channel, sounding somewhat uneasy, “Su Hao, when can we go back?”

In this world, everything felt unfamiliar to Diancie. Even the familiar presence of Xerneas that it had always sensed in the Realm of Life and Death had vanished.

"Well... I don't know either. We can only take it one step at a time."

Su Hao's tone was tinged with bitterness. Without any clues, he didn't know where to begin.

The only person he could think of who might be related to his trial was Ash Ketchum, the protagonist of this world. Could his trial be related to Ash Ketchum?

Chapter 353 Departure to Mount Tsukimi

Dark Grey City Police Department lobby.

"...I will report the reconstruction of the Phantom City Gym to the League. Don't worry, I will urge the League to make arrangements as soon as possible."

The ruins of the Phantom City Gym attracted many residents of Phantom City to come and watch, and even Officer Jenny was drawn to the commotion.

Finally, Su Hao and Joey explained the situation at the police station, and Miss Officer Jenny released them.

In the lobby, Inspector Joey promised Su Hao that he would urge the alliance to begin reconstruction as soon as possible.

Feeling somewhat apologetic, Su Hao, the one who started it all, asked, "Are you sure you don't need me to do anything...?"

He was the one who blew up the dojo in the heat of the moment, but Joey actually tried to take the blame.

"No need. This battle was originally caused by me."
