Elf: Start with small diamonds, then mutate into Diancie!

In other words, it's what's commonly referred to as... true damage!

Su Hao's expression also turned serious, and he shouted to Diancie, "Diamond Storm!"

In an instant.

The diamonds, bursting with endless brilliance, transformed into a storm that swept across the land. For most Pokémon, not only were they unable to break through the incredibly hard diamond storm, but they also had to endure its relentless attacks and the scorching heat from the light constantly refracted by Diancie, who was hidden within it.

But at this moment, faced with the legendary technique suddenly unleashed by Garchomp, countless hard diamonds within the Diamond Storm—

It was split open for the first time!

Om-!

Amidst the eerie sound of space tearing apart, Mega Garchomp's claws slashed through, instantly creating a massive spatial rift!

Diancie, who had dodged back a few meters, stared at the conspicuous wounds on her body for a second, stunned.

This was the first time it had experienced what a so-called "paper-thin defense" was all about.

It's no wonder he learned his technique from the orb of the Space God Palkia; it's truly powerful.

In the lounge.

Emperor Dan stared intently at the scene.

The attack that Mega Garchomp just delivered was definitely on par with Gigantamax Charizard's Gigantamax Inferno.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that Diancie only suffered minor injuries despite taking the hit, demonstrating her terrifying defensive capabilities.

"Almost there...but it's alright!"

Cynthia's gray eyes were fixed on the arena. Given Mega Garchomp's current state, it was capable of launching another attack like that!

Just as Cynthia was about to speak, a sudden gasp erupted from the audience.

Looking in Su Hao's direction, Cynthia was immediately stunned.

Su Hao raised his right arm, and on the bracelet on his wrist, a bright golden diamond-shaped crystal was sparkling.

In the audience.

Ash and his Alola friends exclaimed in disbelief, "Z-Ring!?"

"Oh, oh, oh—the situation has reversed again, and new changes have occurred."

"Su Hao seems about to use his Z-Move!!!"

The referee's excited voice echoed throughout the entire palace stadium.

at this time.

Su Hao could clearly sense that the eyes of the whole world were on him.

Cynthia's sudden use of a technique capable of cleaving through space truly surprised him.

but--

The most reliable trainer would never prepare only one trump card!

He exchanged a glance with Diancie and smiled slightly.

Let's go all out!

"it is good!"

Tianxi nodded slightly.

Su Hao's waveguide input into the Diancie Z instantly emitted a brilliant light.

Diancie closed her eyes, then opened them again.

Her pink eyes instantly transformed into the same brilliant gold as Su Hao's.

At this moment, the "divine essence" within its body trembled slightly, as if it were rejoicing.

Diancie could sense that she had control over everything within the entire radiant aura.

Whether it uses the omnipresent light to attack or focuses its attack on a single point, it can do it.

Cynthia's pupils contracted; that feeling was coming back!

She shouted at almost the fullest, "Garuda, Dragon Dive!!!"

The power gleaned from the white jade orb was now fully concentrated in Garchomp's body.

Its physical strength is close to that of a god, and its terrifying energy fluctuations are constantly tearing apart the surrounding space.

Cynthia and Garchomp both had a premonition.

This strike will be the pinnacle of their Pokémon battling career!

A corner of the audience seats.

The Sinnoh Elite Four, who had arrived in disguise, looked at each other in bewilderment, feeling that there was no chance of turning the tide.

Normally, Cynthia and Garchomp are already able to dominate them.

Now it's even stronger! Where can we complain to them?

However... that's what I said.

The four stared at Diancie, who seemed to have transformed into a sun in the night sky, on the other side of the battlefield. Words stuck in their throats, and they couldn't say them.

They could no longer tell who was better.

If Mega Garchomp is the most ferocious beast in the world, then Diancie... is a god who looks down upon the world!

Mega Garchomp, like a roaring dragon, transformed into a shooting star that tore through space, rebelling against the gods in the sky.

In this regard.

Su Hao and Tianxi simply spoke calmly.

"Dawn breaks—"

The power of the entire radiant aura continuously condensed and suppressed, as if transforming into the Sword of Damocles descending from the highest point of the sky, crashing down with a thunderous roar!

boom--!!!

Amidst the deafening explosion, the blinding light caused everyone to instinctively close their eyes. The entire palace arena shook violently, and the energy barrier was covered with spiderweb-like cracks.

The hundreds of shield-wielding sword monsters deployed around the area activated, unleashing their King's Shield to maintain the crumbling energy barrier.

At this moment, the entire city of Miyako entered daylight, and terrifying roars echoed from the city to the depths of the wilderness, where countless wild Pokémon trembled in fear in their burrows.

Amidst the roar, a defiant dragon's cry faded away as if it were an illusion.

When the power dissipates, the light fades.

Everyone's heart pounded as they slowly opened their eyes.

What they see is—

A giant pit that almost emptied the palace arena.

as well as.

Garchomp, covered in wounds, has retired from its Mega form.

Everyone's earnings have been halved and getting lower since school started, so let's send a free gift! (Setting out bowls)

Chapter 1172 The Perverted Stone Maniac

The entire palace arena, and indeed every corner of the world covered by the live broadcast of the match, was now completely silent.

In the Sinnoh region, Garchomp is seen as the ultimate goal by many trainers, an insurmountable obstacle for many powerful Sinnoh trainers, and is hailed by many fans as the invincible beast.

It actually collapsed!

Online, people often debate who is stronger between the two champions, Dante and Cynthia, but no conclusion has been reached.

During the regular ranking matches before the knockout stage, even if the two sides were matched, they would only use their regular main players to compete and never went all out in a battle.

Many people have argued endlessly for the answer, but all of that is meaningless now.

because.

Cynthia, currently ranked second in the world, was eliminated in the quarterfinals by Su Hao, who is ranked sixth and has emerged as a dark horse!

"Holy shit..."

"Is this really not the finals!?"

"That move was too powerful! It completely hollowed out the entire Palace Arena, and the Giant Energy Points underneath were probably melted!"

"All I heard was the sound of the on-site repair team breaking apart."

The audience immediately launched into a heated discussion.

Among the group of friends and family, Ash, Serena, Clemont, and Bonnie had the most complex expressions.

Ash's eyes widened, and he murmured, "Brother Su Hao is amazing... He even managed to defeat that Cynthia!"

Serena covered her mouth to hide her surprise and asked the person next to her, "That Princess Diancie... seems different from the one we know?"

Citron pushed up his glasses. "Yeah, it was better before they evolved. After that, they became completely different individuals."

Yurika hugged the Drummer tightly, her face beaming with excitement, "That Princess Diancie is pink and shiny, this one is Pikachu (golden)!"

in the lounge.

It was completely silent here.

Emperor Dan crossed his arms, his face full of solemnity.

He suddenly realized.

Whether it's Cynthia's final spatial tear technique, Su Hao and Diancie's threatening "Ultimate Burst," or the final Z-Move "Dawn Break," all of these pose a significant threat to Charizard.

Especially considering that "Dawn Break" completely emptied Garchomp's health bar, Leon felt that if the opponent's energy level hadn't been lower, Charizard would have had a much tougher time after Gigantamaxing.

"...We need to make targeted preparations."
