Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

Anticipating the attack, they struck around Ho-Oh.

"Groudon, Stone Edge!"

"Roar!!!"

Groudon cherished the opportunity created by Kyogre, stomping its feet on the ground and charging forward once again.

It prepares to use its sharp spikes to attack Ho-Oh, the strongest opponent in history.

"So you're going to fight head-on?"

"as you wish!"

A cold, ruthless glint flashed in Liu Bo's eyes, his anger ignited by this crude fighting style.

"Ho-Oh! Brave Bird, unleash your fury!"

"Drip!!!"

Ho-Oh stopped dodging and transformed into a dazzling flame to directly confront Groudon.

boom!!!

boom!!!

"Groudon, Precipice Sword!"

"Kyogre, Root Pulse!"

"Ho-Oh, Sacred Flame!"

... ...

The combined forces of Kyogre and Groudon, along with Ho-Oh at full power, battled for more than ten rounds.

Each round was accompanied by a breathtaking explosion.

The champion team, who had been fighting on the sidelines, stopped their attack on their own.

Together, we watched this earth-shattering battle unfold.

Especially Archie and Red Pine, who worship Groudon and Kyogre as gods.

... ...

After continuous battles, Groudon's lava armor was cracked in various places.

The water curtain around Kyogre no longer emitted blue light.

The runes on Omega and Alfa Romeo no longer shine.

On the other hand, Ho-Oh's situation isn't much better.

The beautiful, spotless feathers were now covered with a layer of dust.

Several of the yellow feathers on its head had fallen off.

The divine bird's power has vanished.

If someone unfamiliar with the species saw it, they might actually think it was just a rather large big-billed finch.

Clearly, the three Pokémon that have been through the great battle are all nearing their maximum potential.

Although Ho-Oh is very strong, it must be admitted that its type is countered.

Groudon's Ground-type moves and Kyogre's Water-type moves can both cause him considerable damage.

On the other hand, Groudon and the others have a good resistance to his most powerful Holy Fire.

"Groudon, Kyogre, come back..."

"Thank you for your hard work, go back to your Poké Balls and rest for a bit..."

Haoyan was the first to send them back, abandoning the attack.

If Hao Yan uses the power of the Everlasting within his body, he can quickly restore and replenish the physical strength and energy that Groudon and the others have lost.

If we continue fighting, he will surely win.

However, the power of Everlasting cannot be used now; it must be saved for Rayquaza.

"Ho-Oh, come back too..." Uncle Liu also took out his Poké Ball and recalled Ho-Oh.

Uncle Liu glanced at the time; an hour and a half had passed since the battle. He then slowly said, "I must say, your command was brilliant..."

"His grasp of the battle situation is incredibly precise..."

"Young and promising..."

"At your age, I could never reach your level..."

"Thanks…"

"Your command is also very skillful!"

"If I hadn't prepared my tactics in advance, I might have lost just now..." Haoyan also affirmed his opponent.

Before meeting Liu Bo, Hao Yan always thought that the other party was a cheat.

However, after the fight, it became clear that Liu Bo was an extremely talented combat genius, capable of subduing a top-tier being like the Phoenix King.

"Heh, I've been asked to stall you for three hours..."

“An hour has passed now, shall we continue?” Uncle Liu asked with a faint smile.

It must be said that he and Haoyan had a thrilling feeling of being evenly matched.

"Okay!" Haoyan replied quietly.

Uncle Liu pulled out a jet-black Poké Ball and played with it in his hand: "I wonder what tactics you'll use to battle against my Pokémon."

After saying that, Uncle Liu pressed the button inside the baby ball.

After the red light, a whirlwind of darkness appeared, and Dark Lugia emerged!

The next battle: a fierce fight against Dark Lugia!

... ...

Chapter 727 Eleven against one, young man, rat tail juice

Dark Lugia is distinctly different from its native species.

His eyes were bloodshot, as if dripping blood.

Its feathers are jet black, just like its name.

Unlike the gentle and tolerant ordinary Lugia, Dark Lugia is filled with a series of negative emotions such as violence and anger.

Wherever Dark Lugia's gaze falls, no one dares to meet its terrifying red eyes!

It didn't move at all, just flew in the air.

It gives off an extremely terrifying feeling.

Dark Lugia's current strength is probably comparable to Ho-Oh's from before.

However, it gives the impression that Dark Lugia is even more explosive.

... ...

"I wonder what you, who are well-prepared, will use to face my Dark Lugia?"

As Uncle Liu spoke, he looked up at the turbulent currents surging in the air.

Hao Yan slowly began, "Right now, I won't use Sky Sit..."

The most familiar and strongest of Hao Yan's skills is the Fierce Sky Throw, which he will only use at the most crucial moment.

Although Dark Lugia is very strong, it's not enough for Hao Yan to use Rayquaza.

"Oh, really?"

"I'm quite curious, what do you use to compare my Dark Lugia..." Uncle Liu looked intently at Hao Yan.

Clearly, Liu Bo had full confidence in Dark Lugia's strength.

"Dark Lugia is really strong; you can sense that just from his aura..."

"So, before the battle, I want to apologize to you first..." Hao Yan said, touching his nose somewhat embarrassedly.

"Ok?"

"What do you mean?" Uncle Liu stared at Haoyan warily, not quite understanding what Haoyan meant.

Why should I apologize to him?

What is this routine?

Is it part of the tactics?

To disrupt his mind?

Even the champions, who had stopped their battle, all looked puzzled.

I don't understand Haoyan's thoughts.

"Hehe..." Hao Yan chuckled and took out two treasure balls.

It was thrown into the air.

Two loud bangs.

They released the two Lugia they had rescued at the Kagi Gym, who were also the parents of the baby Lugia.

Thanks to Haoyan's powerful Tokiwa energy, the other party was healed during this time.

"Drip!!"

"Drip!!"

The two Lugia looked with concern at their kin's chieftain who had fallen into darkness.

"Them?" Uncle Liu frowned. "Although your command was excellent..."

"But relying on them, who are relatively weak, is perhaps a bit too much of a gamble..."
