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

In that deep, giant pit, Greninja, having prematurely severed its bond transformation to avoid interfering with Ash's upcoming battle, lay inside, its eyes darting around.

"Greninja is unable to battle, Milotic wins! Ash, please send out your next Pokémon!"

The referee, showing no mercy, raised his flag and announced the result.

The announcer's somber voice rang out: "Under the brutal onslaught of Max Milotic's firepower, Greninja has unfortunately lost its ability to battle!"

"At this point, Ash has lost four Pokémon, while Su Hao is still alive, except for Braviary and Incineroar, which are seriously injured."

"Ash, can you break this hopeless situation?"

At this moment, the aerial Rotom prepared by the Galar Alliance flew around, projecting the expressions and movements of both sides onto the big screen through the rain.

On Ash's side, thanks to Greninja's excellent judgment, he managed to maintain his original strength and consciousness.

He raised his hand, recalled Greninja, and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work, Greninja."

After handing the Poké Ball to Nurse Joy, Ash did not immediately send out his Pokémon.

He looked at the Giant Milotic, which was still standing on the field and showed no intention of leaving, and he became unusually conflicted.

Looking at the only red and white Poké Ball left in his hand, and then at Pikachu beside him who was completely focused, the answer had already become clear.

In this kind of weather, even if it has the stamina to support another Mega Evolution, Charizard and Dynamax Milotic are still completely incompatible.

This is the only road we can take.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiao Zhi took a deep breath, turned his hat brim back, and shouted loudly:

"Pikachu, I choose you!!"

------------

This chapter is a two-in-one, that's all for tonight.

To that distant blue sky

Chapter 1199 Final XI - Ten Million Volts

"Pickup!"

When called upon, Pikachu's eyes lit up. Ignoring the puddles on the ground, it leaped into the battle arena with high spirits.

The host exclaimed with delight, "Here comes the Burning Thunder Pikachu!"

"Pikachu was Ash's first partner, accompanying him in various league tournaments. They were truly the most trusted partners!"

"In the exhibition match at the Manaro Conference in the Alola region, they even achieved the feat of defeating the island guardian!"

"Small in size but great in strength, that perfectly describes Pikachu!"

Next, the host recounted Pikachu's achievements in great detail.

Examples include defeating Regice, who battled the Pharaoh of the Pyramids, and Latios, the Infinite Pokémon during the Lily of the Valley Conference.

This explanation immediately sparked a frenzy of discussion.

Many people looked at Pikachu below in disbelief, never expecting that Pikachu, which was said to be as common as stray dogs on the roadside, would be so powerful.

Even the world's best skin can't compare to this!

Upon hearing the host's introduction, Milotic, in its Dynamaxed state, lowered its beautiful eyes and stared at the even smaller Pikachu below.

It actually defeated Latios?

Milotic's eyes suddenly turned dangerous.

It knew very well that its brother had many of his own kind, not to mention individuals from another world.

Pikachu did not defeat the same powerful older brother it admired.

even so.

Milotic also showed a rare hint of competitiveness.

Its goal is to become a Pokémon stronger than its older brothers and sisters, to no longer feel the helplessness it once did, and to be able to protect them!

If it can't defeat the Pikachu in front of it, how can it talk about surpassing its older brothers and sisters!

Minas was unusually aroused, and its ideas were conveyed to Su Hao through the connected waveguide.

"I see, then... the third giant water flow!"

Through the release of two massive water flows, coupled with the environment of the pseudo-Primordial Sea, the active water-attribute energy in the air is in an unprecedented state.

After the groundwork has been laid, the power of this massive water flow will far exceed that of the previous two.

Water vapor continuously gathered, transforming into six enormous orbs of light, unlike anything ever seen before.

The light began to shrink, and the unsettling energy began to fluctuate.

Ash and Pikachu made a decision without hesitation.

Fighting this giant water jet with Pikachu in its unprepared, normal state would likely be a losing proposition.

We must now make a choice.

Thinking of this, Ash gripped the brim of his hat and shouted with unwavering determination, "Pikachu!"

"Pickup!"

Pikachu stood up and looked at Ash with trust.

Ash nodded slightly, and under the watchful eyes of countless people, he accurately tossed the hat to Pikachu.

Pikachu jumped up in perfect unison, catching Ash's hat on its head and then cutely putting it on with its little hands.

"Pikachu!"

As if to let Ash know that it was ready, Pikachu barked energetically.

Ash raised his wrist, revealing one of his full sets of equipment: the powerful Z-Ring, enhanced by the four guardian deities of the Alola region.

The bracelet is inlaid with a unique Z-Crystal, created solely through the bond with Pikachu, which makes Ash's Pikachu Z-Crystal shine brightly.

The two exchanged a high five in perfect unison, their entire bodies radiating the aura of Necrozma, the great god of light.

"A million volts, even more powerful than 100,000 volts—"

"No, it has to be even more powerful, our ultimate power."

"Pikachu!"

"Ten million volts!"

Xiao Zhi recited his lines with great enthusiasm, showing no shame whatsoever.

In an instant, all the light emitted by the Z-Bracelet converged on Pikachu's body, transforming into a lightning-like force field.

At that moment, Pikachu seemed to be given wings, leaping into the air and meeting Milotic's gaze.

"Pikachu, Pikachu, Pikachu—Chu Pikachu!!!"

With a hoarse voice, Pikachu roared with all its might, and from its center, seven colors of lightning—yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, pink, and red—burst forth, dancing wildly like lightning serpents.

This attack, which embodies the determination of Ash and Pikachu, is nearly as powerful as the final battle at the Manaro Conference.

That is to say-

Master level.

A strike from the divine realm!

In that instant, Milotic sensed an unprecedented sense of crisis. Without hesitation, he mobilized all his energy and frantically drew from the Source of Infinity, then purified it through the fragments of the Water Drop Stone, and poured it into the six orbs of light surrounding him.

Within each of the six dazzling orbs of light, there was terrifying energy. The surrounding space trembled slightly due to the compression of the six energies to the extreme, and the water droplets in the air became more active than ever before, gently pulsating.

The ball of light began to slowly rotate, and then a deafening roar resounded through the sky. Six enormous streams of water, compressed to their limit, burst forth from the ball of light. Rather than being streams of water, they had become pure pillars of energy.

In that instant, the whole world seemed to fall silent, everyone staring intently at the scene before them, holding their breath in anticipation.

next moment.

Tens of millions of volts collided with an enormous flow of water.

A terrifying sonic boom erupted, causing the entire battlefield to tremble violently. Shockwaves relentlessly crashed against the barriers erected at the palace arena, like a relentless tide.

They intertwine and collide in the air, and the energy they splash out forms a magnificent water curtain and thunder trees.

When a battle reaches its decisive moment, it always ends with a clash of forces.

now.

Pikachu knew that as the ace, it had to turn this absolutely unfavorable situation around and regroup.

Milotic knew that once it broke through Pikachu's 10 million volts, the road to victory would be wide open.

Neither side would yield, both carrying an unwavering determination to win.

but.

The difference in strength was obvious at that moment.

Ten million volts is the culmination of Ash and Pikachu's belief. Even without the support of the entire Alola region, when they have trained to their current level, using Bond as fuel, the power instantly rises to an undeniable Master level.

Milotic, despite possessing immense energy, still only has a Champion-level vent. Even with Dynamax, it can only unleash power close to the peak of the Champion level.

Not to mention, tens of millions of volts is seven currents, while a huge flow of water is six.

Now Pikachu can control the trajectory of its flight with electricity at will, skimming over the clashing giant water currents, and terrifying electric currents bombard Milotic's massive body!

"Miru—"

Milotic groaned, and even though it was enduring the pain of the electric current constantly attacking its body, its power output inevitably began to decrease.

Finally, at some point, the balance was completely broken.

Millions of volts shattered the massive water flow, all of which slammed into Milotic's body.
