Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 467 The Gigantamax Feast, Superhuman Naruto (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Before we could even mourn the Gigantamax that lost in the first round against the Z-Move, the second Gigantamax arrived on the scene!

With the rules lifted, there's no longer a need to wait for crucial moments to activate Dynamax and create excitement, so Climax is the way to go from the start!

From the thrown Poké Ball, Gigantamax Cinderace's ears became huge and droopy, the red part on its head turned into flames, and it stood on a huge fireball that seemed to have an expression on its face.

The fireball was over 100 meters in diameter, almost exceeding the area of ​​the arena, creating an extremely oppressive atmosphere.

"Gigantamax Fireball!!!"

Dan Di laughed, waved, and shouted.

Upon hearing the sound, Flame Ace leaped into the air, performing a handstand in mid-air, and kicked the massive fireball, hundreds of meters in diameter, like a soccer ball. Many spectators behind Mingyou were startled.

Faced with this attack, the Crawling Wing showed no intention of retreating even a step. A ball of flame swirled around it, but the flame shield was still unable to withstand this level of attack and was eventually engulfed by the giant fireball.

The oppressive feeling of Dynamax finally became apparent.

Ace Flame landed above the newly formed giant fireball, arms crossed in a victorious pose, watching the tiny insects being engulfed by the flames.

"This power is terrifying beyond belief."

Mingyou stared at the enormous fireball. Facing something like that, most people would probably faint instantly from fright.

He recalled his Ground Wing and switched to his second Pokémon, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Since that's how it is..."

A flash of red light, and Snorlax, who didn't get a chance to play in the last match, finally came onto the field. As a fierce and powerful warrior for Naruto, Snorlax has shown amazing talent since it was a baby Snorlax, and its battles so far have been almost perfect.

"Kirby!"

As Shiny Pokémon made its entrance with its signature flashing effect, Snorlax squinted at Cinderace, who stood over a hundred meters tall and was riding on a fireball. It was rare for it to remain sober during its appearance.

However, in the blink of an eye, Snorlax was recalled into its Poké Ball by Naruto. All the spectators were shocked when they saw this. Could this be...?

"hey-hey!"

The Max Gigantamax Band on Mingyou's wrist lit up, and the Poké Ball in his hand began to grow larger and larger. Since this was the home turf of Dynamax, let him try Gigantamax as well. Although his Max Gigantamax Band can only be used once, once is enough.

The dark purple aura that enveloped the sky seemed to intensify instantly. Snorlax lay on the ground as if asleep. Under the influence of Gigantamax power, the berries and pebbles stuck to its belly also grew explosively. Its huge, lush body was as majestic as a mountain, forming a unique ecosystem, much like the style of a manor.

Gigantamax vs Gigantamax!

This tactic of constantly unleashing previously trump cards in battles has truly delighted the audience.

Dan was somewhat taken aback, not expecting his opponent to use Dynamax to fight him here. After all, Naruto's Dynamax Band was not like his, which could not be used multiple times without being charged.

Does this mean the other side still has a trump card up their sleeve?

Whether it is or not, he is already impatient!

"Max Fighter!!!"

"Max Water Flow!!!"

The two shouted almost at the same time, and the two Pokémon immediately followed up with an attack.

Leon had studied this Snorlax and knew that it had the Thick Fat ability, so using Fire-type moves wouldn't be very effective. It would be better to do it now.

Cinderace reacted to the sound, swinging its fist and releasing a violent gust of wind. The energy gathered and transformed into a giant fist that slammed straight forward. Snorlax, lying on the ground, simply raised its arm slightly, and a stream of water gushed from its fingertips, colliding fiercely with the giant fist in mid-air!

The collision of the two Dynamaxed energies and the resulting shockwave nearly caused the Aegislash, which had barely withstood the previous attack, to collapse again. However, in order to protect the audience, they were willing to do everything in their power so that everyone could finish watching the match.

The torrential rain and the Dynamax Water Stream extinguished the flames on Cinderace's body, but its momentum became even stronger under the effect of Dynamax Fist. Furthermore, due to its Free Spirit ability, its type changed to Fighting. However, it only had one more turn left to Dynamax.

"One round is enough, a giant fistfight!"

Dandi waved his hand and shouted again.

However, Mingyou changed his attack strategy and instead of using the Giant Stream in the rain, he shouted.

"Max Air Strike!"

"ha?"

Does Snorlax have Flying-type moves?

Of course!

Mingyou grinned, but don't forget what his job is. Although it's a forgotten fact, mutant crops can teach Pokémon moves that they couldn't learn otherwise!

Snorlax raised its two arms and swung them around like a fish leaping out of water. A gust of wind suddenly rose up, and combined with the rain, it instantly created a storm that rushed towards the descending giant fist.

boom--

Under such an onslaught, even the shield-wielding sword monsters protecting the stands could not withstand the onslaught. Even the Rotom, which was broadcasting the match live, had to move away from the area. Some spectators were even blown away from the stands. But for the bloodthirsty audience, these were all minor incidents, and nothing could stop them from watching the match.

Snorlax successfully blocked Cinderace's attack. The opponent's Dynamax timer ended, and it returned to its original size. Looking at Snorlax, who was raising its hand to charge up, Cinderace was stunned. This was the first time that Cinderace had failed to defeat its opponent within three turns.

"Gigantamax Resource Regeneration!!!"

The instant Mingyou finished speaking, the terrifying power erupting from Snorlax's fingertips transformed into a fierce beam of light, detonating beneath Cinderace...

"..."

As the Flame Ace fell, Mingyou's friends and family in the audience immediately erupted in excited cheers. The strongest king, Dan Di, had been at a disadvantage against Mingyou all along, and the rhythm of the game was completely outmaneuvered.

If Meiyu could use Dynamax continuously, he could completely block Leon's Dynamax duration and achieve a perfect suppression effect, but unfortunately... Snorlax's Gigantamax is over.

"Come back!"

Mingyou recalled Snorlax. There was no point in continuing like this, since the opponent would definitely start with Dynamax. Snorlax wouldn't last three rounds. The opponent's stance clearly indicated that they intended to fight for the entire match.

Seeing him recall Snorlax, Leon chuckled, roughly guessing the Pokémon the other would send out next. He then threw out Poké Balls together, and Venusaur and Lucario appeared on the field at the same time.

Mingyou was slightly taken aback. She had never heard of Leon having a Venusaur before. But it was normal for someone who had been a champion for over ten years to have caught and trained other Pokémon in between. But if it was a Gigantamax Venusaur…

As the dark purple light curtain once again enveloped the Palace Arena, Venusaur emerged from its Poké Ball. The flower on its back had grown large enough to cover its entire body, with very thick petals that seemed capable of repelling any attack.

"Leo!"

Lucario remained unfazed, synchronizing with Mingyou, its red aura erupting instantly. After Mega Evolution, it leaped into the air and fearlessly met the attack head-on.

"Gigantamax Whiplash Annihilation!!!"

At Leon's command, Venusaur used its strong petals as a shield and wielded the thick vines extending from the roots beneath its flower, shooting forward at high speed. Meanwhile, Lucario clasped its hands together, conjuring a metallic beam of light, and unleashed its Cannon.

The dazzling green and metallic glow shifted in the air, triggering a violent explosion, which all the spectators watched with bated breath.

From the smoke of the explosion, Lucario emerged on the vines of Venusaur, not only dodging the attack with the help of the explosion, but also using it as a springboard to leap into the air, gathering all the steel power in his hands, and shooting out Iron Hoof Ray from his palm close to his face!

boom--

Iron Hoof Ray struck Venusaur head-on, but its massive petals blocked the attack. The thick petals provided terrifying defense, and even Naruto hadn't anticipated that they would reduce the impact in that way.

"Now! The Great Earth!"

Dan Di laughed and shouted. He knew that Mingyou had a characteristic in battles: her Pokémon either had to defeat the opponent or lose, otherwise she would never switch out. He had seen this for the past few days.

Although it's unclear whether this is a request from the Pokémon or the other party, since Z-Moves and Dynamax have already been used, the only remaining options are Mega Evolution and Crystallize. By using the Pokémon that can Mega Evolve in Naruto's possession, we can roughly deduce which Pokémon the other party has left.

It's likely that all of them are Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution, since anyone can use Crystallize without any restrictions. The choice between Mega Evolution and Dynamax can be made based on the situation.

Although they lost two Pokémon at the start due to a disadvantage, they replaced two of the opponent's battle systems and the entire lineup of Pokémon afterward. In a battle of this level, having their strategies figured out is equivalent to having their underwear exposed, so they can practically declare victory in advance.

Lucario's attack was not entirely effective. A huge stone slab suddenly appeared in front of him, fell down, and hit him directly with tremendous force, causing considerable damage and instantly inflicting severe injury!

"Well……"

Even as Naruto kept in sync with Lucario, his body swayed uncontrollably, causing Xiao Zhao in the audience to worry. In a synchronized state, Lucario's injuries would be reflected back to him.

"Have I been seen through...?"

Mingyou reacted quite quickly. You could tell from the confident expression on Leon's face, as if he had already written the equation for victory, or rather, from the moment he mentioned the number of times the system could be unlocked, that the opponent had already been calculating. After all, as long as you mention that you can use the system at will, you can deduce the Pokémon that your opponent will use.

The essence of entertainment battles is to bring joy to the audience while winning, and then extend a hand to the opponent who lost to you and say something like, "Pokémon battles, you had a lot of fun, didn't you?"

but……

"I'm not a casual gamer!"

Mingyou responded with a smile, and the next second, Venusaur's huge body seemed to be affected by some force and suddenly rose up... no, it should be said that it was lifted up by someone!

Lucario, which was smashed down by a huge force, took the opportunity to escape from under Venusaur with serious injuries. Since the flower shield could not be broken, it would destroy it from the inside.

Such a bizarre scene was something even Leon had never encountered before. The heavily injured Lucario was holding up a Wave Missile that was enveloped in red flames and was still growing larger, supporting Venusaur like a crane. What kind of power was this!

"Blast it away!"

Mingyou waved and shouted.

"Leo!"

Lucario used Aura Sphere to fling Venusaur, whose massive body was tens of meters long, directly out. The Venusaur exploded in mid-air and crashed heavily to the ground.

But that wasn't the end of it. Lucario, dragging his heavily injured body, used his divine speed to close in instantly. At that moment, Leon also came to his senses and immediately shouted loudly.

"Gigantamax Whiplash Annihilation!"

Venusaur reacted to the sound, not even bothering to roll over and use its flower to protect itself. A huge vine shot out from under the flower, but Lucario's Extreme Speed ​​was still a step ahead. A Comet Punch slammed heavily into Venusaur's belly. Under the Adaptability ability, the power of moves of the same type is increased.

Struck in the abdomen, Venusaur was in excruciating pain, but the giant vines finally struck Lucario, the powerful attack sending it flying off the field and nearly crashing into the Aegislash the referee was riding, before it fell to the ground.

Mega Evolution was deactivated, and Lucario lost its ability to battle. Mingyou seemed to have lost half his life, panting heavily. In Synchronize mode, his opponent relied entirely on his stamina to finish the match, managing to win what seemed like an impossible battle.

boom--

After unleashing its final Dynamax move, Venusaur could no longer hold on. With a loud explosion, it landed belly-up, also losing its ability to battle.

The game ended in a draw...

This ending was unexpected by all the viewers, including Leon. From the moment Lucario lifted Venusaur, he had already realized that Mega Evolution of the Naruto Pokémon without the aid of Evolution Stones and Key Stones was different from normal Mega Evolution.

He noticed Mingyou's condition; the Pokémon seemed to be drawing energy from him to sustain itself, gaining even greater power by fighting alongside humans and Pokémon—he was practically a superhuman!

"Looks like I still haven't fully figured you out. You truly are a player full of surprises!"

Leon recalled Venusaur, his heart overflowing with fighting spirit and passion. He could no longer suppress his emotions. "Then let's begin the second half. Without your Z-Move, Dynamax, and half your HP, how will you put up a final showdown against his Gigantamax team?"

While the Master Tournament finals were in full swing in Miyamon City, Raikou, who had been hit by a meteor two days earlier, was still trapped in the energy factory in Kensei City, awaiting rescue. Raikou was trusted by Naruyu.

Meanwhile, Lorz returned to the energy plant that had been taken over by the Interpol. He retrieved the broken preserved egg that Xiao Zhao had smashed. As long as this egg didn't fall into the hands of the Interpol, everything could proceed smoothly.

With everyone's attention focused on the Masters Tournament, he needed to get down to business. This was also why he gave Dan the Max Bracer. With Mingyou tied up, the others wouldn't pay attention to this place anymore, and there wouldn't be a better opportunity!
