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

The next moment, it clasped its hands together, and a huge blue-purple energy dragon roared out, its open jaws aimed directly at the Blazing Ace in mid-air.

After transforming into a Flying-type, Cinderace gained the ability to use Flying-type energy to some extent to gain leverage in mid-air.

Faced with the dragon's energy wave that contained a powerful threat, it lightly stepped on empty ground and instantly flipped over.

Su Hao narrowed his eyes. Through the vision of Super Lucario, he could see that a small pebble was stuck between Cinderace's toes at some point.

Cinderace threw the pebble upwards, and in the next instant, flames that seemed to burn everything instantly enveloped the pebble. A fireball the size of a soccer ball was kicked out by Cinderace towards Dragon Pulse!

The fireball streaked through the air in a crimson line, striking the dragon's brow with unstoppable force, and then tearing it apart completely without diminishing its momentum.

The Dragon's Wave collapsed, which was unexpected yet reasonable to Su Hao.

Mega Lucario's Adaptability ability only boosts the power of Fighting and Steel-type moves.

Furthermore, Dragon Pulse is just one of the moves used by Mega Lucario to cover its weaknesses, so it's normal that it's slightly weaker than Cinderace's signature move, Fireball.

Standing upright on the battlefield, which was scorched like a hell by the flames emanating from the Fireball, Mega Lucario felt just as exhilarated as Su Hao.

As expected, Su Xu's Blazing Ace was worth using, a move they had perfected during those thirteen days of special training using the special shaping ability of the Waveguide Cloak!

Just as Su Xu breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that although the evolved Lucario was powerful, it was still inferior to Cinderace in some aspects, the battle situation changed again.

Mega Lucario, which was chasing Cinderace and forcing it into close combat, suddenly stopped moving and vanished from its spot, deliberately creating distance.

Su Hao, who had been silent all along, suddenly looked up, a sunny smile on his lips, and asked Su Xu, "Dad... do you know what purity is?"

Su Xu: "?"

Where did this come from?

Before he could figure out what Su Hao and Super Lucario were up to, they made their move.

In the palms of the Super Lucario, which was clad in a waveguide-like armor, a vortex instantly condensed, and a wave missile that looked slightly different from ordinary wave missiles, being a bit bluer, slowly rotated.

The next second, Mega Lucario vanished without a trace, while Cinderace felt as if he had only blinked, and Mega Lucario, wielding Aura Sphere, appeared right in front of him.

Having already become somewhat familiar with the rhythm of teleportation, Flame Ace immediately reacted, the metallic gleam above his head instantly...

Switching to fiery red, a Flame Punch is unleashed at Super Lucario!

Judging from the trajectory of that punch, Cinderace clearly intended to destroy Aura Sphere first, and then Super Lucario!

However, the moment Cinderace confidently made contact with the Aura Sphere, the hissing sound of the flames on his fist evaporating due to encountering its nemesis instantly brought him back to reality.

It's not a wave missile... is it a water wave?

No, Cinderace quickly overturned this conclusion; it is highly sensitive to elemental energy, as it makes good use of elemental transformations.

This wave missile... clearly contains the powerful Fighting-type energy of Mega Lucario and the Water-type energy that counters it!!

Cinderace could only watch helplessly as the Aura Sphere, inexplicably powerful and seemingly super effective against its Fire-type nature despite its high Fighting-type energy, exploded, and a sharp pain instantly struck.

With a mournful cry, the Blazing Joker, who had been hit squarely by this attack, felt as if his arm was about to be destroyed.

However, such powerful moves must have intervals and cannot be seamlessly connected. Just like how Cinderace is very confident in the power of Fireball but cannot maintain maximum power and continuously fire it.

Just as it was about to follow Su Xu's instructions and take a few steps back to make other plans, Super Lucario, whose vision was completely unaffected by the smoke and which relied on its waveguide to find people, appeared behind Cinderace like a ghost.

Cinderace felt a gust of cold wind blow past him as the evolved Lucario hurled another Aura Sphere at him.

Having learned from past mistakes, Cinderace chose to use Iron Head to switch to Steel type. This time, it will definitely be Water Pulse disguised as Aura Missile!

The highly effective attack exploded once again, the metal layer formed by the Iron Head shattered, the wave missile exploded, and the scorching flames engulfed the Flame Ace once more!

Next, Lucario's figure kept disappearing and reappearing, with a wave missile always in its palm. Every time Su Xu tried to command Cinderace to switch attributes, the highly effective attack would explode.

Meanwhile, Cinderace was constantly on the move, unable to hit Lucario, and when she tried to sweep it away with an area attack, that strange Aura Sphere would appear precisely to interrupt its wind-up animation!

It was absolutely incredibly frustrating.

Stamina was draining away every second, and gradually Cinderace couldn't even keep up with the speed of switching types. It was directly hit by Lucario, who was constantly flashing Aura Spheres, launching a seamless and highly effective attack.

Finally, Cinderace's vision went black, and he collapsed to the ground with a look of resentment on his face.

Su Xu was stunned by this combo. At this moment, he vaguely understood what Su Hao meant by "purity".

Faced with Lucario's evolved combo attacks, Cinderace was so thoroughly chained that it lost its ability to battle...

Chapter 506: The Prelude to the Advent of Super Evolution

The next morning.

Su Hao stretched and opened his room door, feeling refreshed. The next thing he saw were two faces filled with resentment in every sense of the word and two pairs of bloodshot eyes.

The resentment emanating from the two was probably not far off from that of a thousand-year-old red-clothed vengeful ghost.

These two people are naturally Su Xu and Su Qing.

Su Xu's resentment stemmed from the fact that he, a dignified Elite Four level trainer, had actually suffered a defeat in a battle against his son, and for some other reason, he had tossed and turned in his study all night, unable to sleep.

Su Qing, on the other hand, was completely intrigued and was about to have a late-night talk with Su Hao when her son's words, "I'm tired," piqued her interest, and she ended up lying in bed thinking about it all night.

All of this was nothing more than a form of revenge by a filial son whose sleep had been disturbed.

However, seeing the current state of the two, Su Hao, the dutiful son, was still a little uneasy and said weakly, "Can I go wash up first?"

The two said in unison, "Go quickly!"

We've waited all night, so waiting another ten minutes or so won't matter.

A moment later, at the Su family's dining table.

Despite its rectangular shape, the three people sitting there created a solemn atmosphere reminiscent of a round table meeting.

Su Qing, the Empress of the Family, crossed her arms slightly and voiced the question she had been pondering all night: "Why did Lucario revert to its original form after the battle?"

Sue, the family's middle-ranking member, was very honest and answered every question: "Because evolution is temporary."

Su, the younger brother of the family, Xu: "........."

His wife and son are about to start doing scientific research, and he still doesn't interfere.

Su Qing nodded slightly. Her son's words confirmed her suspicions, which she had pondered all night. She spoke calmly and methodically, "I thought about it for a long time last night, and based on your words and actions, as well as Lucario's changes, I deduced..."

"The 'Mega Evolution' you mentioned is a temporary release of the hidden power within a Pokémon's genes, giving it a new form and power for the time being."

"And the key to unlocking the hidden power within your genes is the enhancement stone embedded in your glove... no, there's also the other enhancement stone that Lucario absorbed into his body as a tool, right?"

Su Qing's words hit the nail on the head, and Su Hao couldn't help but admire his mother's considerable research talent.

She was able to deduce the triggering conditions from the smallest details after she had only demonstrated a super evolution once.

So terrifying.

Su Hao gasped and nodded, confirming Su Qing's guess.

Su Qing blinked and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Her research has always focused on the evolution of Pokémon, and with her experience, her son has even demonstrated it to her up close.

If she still can't figure it out, she can go back to her hometown to farm... even though she doesn't actually have a hometown.

With Su Qing having a general understanding of super evolution, Su Hao's subsequent "science popularization" journey became much easier.

Su Hao slowly instilled concepts such as Evolution Key Stone, Super Stone, and Bond Chain into Su Qing.

Unlike rigorous scientific research, none of Su Hao's claims are supported by data; they are all his one-sided statements.

However, facts speak louder than words.

After quickly processing all the information in her mind, Su Qing thought to herself that her son was really lucky.

With such demanding triggering conditions for Mega Evolution, it's no wonder that no one has been able to discover the miraculous secrets hidden within the Enhancement Stone since its discovery.

His own son probably only managed to collect a set of props by chance and accidentally triggered this miracle; he is truly a lucky person.

With her lingering curiosity finally settled, Su Qing quickly regained her composure.

Clever as she was, she instantly realized why Su Hao had kept it a secret for so long and why he had specifically shown them the existence of super evolution this time.

It's probably like what happened with Little Tianxi, where they used their own name to find an opportunity to release it... but it shouldn't be the college league.

Even the most brilliant senior students in Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen aren't strong enough for their sons to need to resort to this trump card.

In other words... it's likely that the competition, ostensibly an international youth exchange event, is actually a ploy to seize more secrets on the high seas.

It's a competition of resource allocation within the region.

Thinking of this, Su Qing smiled. Since her "good" son needed her help, he would obediently accompany her for the next two days to conduct data testing.

Su Hao's mega-evolution reminded her of Pokémon with crystalline surfaces, perhaps...

Even though it was only the first day of her vacation back, Su Qing couldn't wait to get back to the research institute.

Next, having seen through Su Hao's intentions, Su Qing seized the absolute initiative and used the family's imperial throne to coerce Su Hao into signing a series of unequal treaties.

For example, these past two days I've been spending my days accompanying Su Qing to collect a series of data about super evolution, and so on.
