Pokémon: A Roundup of Ash's Eight Masters' Peak Battles!

"Haha, that's a great reason."

"Here, take this." With that, Leon tossed Ash a Dynamax Band. "Make this the Dynamax Band. Wearing it will allow you to use the power of Dynamax."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Leon." Ash put the Max Band on his wrist.

He had been thinking about how to get Pikachu into that state.

He spent quite a while reviewing the game with Pikachu last night.

However, he gained nothing. Ash thought he had to slam the ground every time to activate Dynamax.

But this wasn't the kind of thing I saw in Dan's matches back then.

Ash made thorough preparations for today's battle.

He even wore the Alola Z-Ring and the Pikachu Z Crystal embedded in it.

There's no time to mourn Lance; next up is the strongest rookie in history, the Alola League Champion—Ash!!!

The competition officially began at this point!

Ash sent out his closest partner—Pikachu.

Leon still has his strongest trump card – Charizard.

Originally, Leon only considered Ash's request for a battle as a reward for helping him stop the rampaging Drednaw.

I thought to myself that I couldn't let this child feel disheartened.

But now, ever since they learned Ash's true identity...

Dan Di also became serious; what if they accidentally capsized in a ditch?

That would be incredibly embarrassing.

Ash's preferred tactic is fast attack, so he usually takes the initiative when facing strong opponents.

"Pikachu, lightning flashes!"

"Pickup!"

Upon receiving Ash's command, Pikachu landed on all fours and transformed into a white bolt of lightning, charging towards the Charizard standing in the center of the arena.

"Charizard, use Thunder Punch to counter!"

Leon shouted sternly at the speeding Pikachu.

"roar~"

The fire-breathing dragon roared and took flight.

Golden lightning crackled around its dragon claws.

Ash and Pikachu are of one mind, but so are Charizard and Leon.

From the start of the battle, Charizard sensed Leon's burning desire for victory.

Therefore, it cannot be taken lightly!

Pikachu's Quick Attack is incredibly fast, but Charizard still managed to catch it.

The next second, a fist covered in electricity slammed into Pikachu's head.

Pikachu flew back ten meters before regaining its balance.

"I'm about to burst into flames, Pikachu!"

"Pika~chu!"

"Excellent! Use the electric grid!"

Pikachu charges up and leaps high into the air.

The current in his body converged at the tail end, which was then violently flung out.

A massive electric current formed a high-voltage grid in the air, shooting straight towards the fire-breathing dragon.

"Not bad! Charizard, unleash Thunder Punch again!"

In mid-air, golden lightning once again gathered on Charizard's fist.

The massive electric grid was actually torn apart from the middle by Dan's Charizard with a single lightning punch.

Even after tearing through the electric grid, electric sparks still flowed across Charizard's fists.

"So strong!" Ash became even more excited.

Is this the trump card of the strongest champion, Leon?

too strong!

Pikachu used its Iron Tail to meet the attack.

In mid-air, Pikachu used the momentum from throwing the electric net to spin around.

Then a metallic sheen covered the lightning-like tail.

When faced with the Charizard charging at it, Pikachu retaliated with its Iron Tail without backing down.

The electric current from the lightning fist collided with the steel-like tail.

Ultimately, both were thrown away by the enormous impact.

"Spray flames!"

"One hundred thousand volts!"

Almost simultaneously, two voices rang out from both ends of the arena.

Both sides used their best moves.

Golden lightning bolts collided with crimson flames.

The enormous palace arena was forced to activate its protective shield under the impact of the two attacks.

The referee in mid-air wiped away non-existent sweat.

If he hadn't been so experienced, he wouldn't have been able to fly into the air beforehand.

They might even have to take half a month off work due to the aftershocks of this attack.

Who is this kid?! He can actually fight on par with Mr. Dan!

This scene is only slightly worse than yesterday's battle between Mr. Awa and Mr. Dante.

.......

Chapter 40 Did Pikachu actually use its full power?

[Lance: It seems I underestimated Ash. Only Ash could pull off a Thunderbolt of this power.]

[Cynthia: Mr. Leon hasn't used his full power yet, has he? This isn't even the full strength of your Charizard.]

[Shigeru: Huh? Why did Mr. Leon go easy on me?]

[Leon: No, it's not just me. Ash's Pikachu didn't use its full power either. I can feel a power within it, but it hasn't been activated.]

Upon hearing this, everyone's attention finally focused on the light screen.

[Denji: That seems to be true. Pikachu's electric attack doesn't have the same sharp edge it had when facing Lugia.]

[DaYe: Mr. Leon's Charizard's flame color is wrong. In the battle against Lance, Charizard's tail flame had already turned blue, but this time it's still a normal orange-red.]

[Mikori: That shouldn't be the case. Leon was clearly preparing to get serious earlier.]

Ash: I think they probably want to save the most exciting battle for last. The real battle with Leon will definitely be saved for the biggest stage.

[Xiao Mao: Do ​​you think you can become one of the Eight Masters?]

Baiyin Town.

After seeing the comments sent by Xiaozhi.

The Rockets' sales efforts came to a halt.

"As expected of a little brat, he's got quite the big mouth."

"Maybe he really can."

If we're talking about the people who understand Ash best, it's not necessarily Professor Oak or Misty.

The people who know Ash best are definitely the Team Rocket trio.

They witnessed Ash's growth along the way.

Ash's talent as a trainer is beyond doubt!

After all, Ash is destined to become the world's number one Pokémon Master.

“Actually, I really want to see that kid on that stage,” Musashi said.

"Me too!" "Me too, meow~"

"Click"

When Shigeru, who was about to buy a lemonade, heard the Rocket trio whispering, he immediately crushed the drink cup in his hand.

How could something like this happen just to buy a drink!
