In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

In any battle against any opponent, his goal has always been the same: to win!

"That's good. I'll wait for you at the Manaro Arena tomorrow."

Bakura's smile deepened, his eyes fixed on Satoshi's, filled with anticipation. He was really looking forward to it.

To be able to have a real all-out battle with Ash.

……

Time flies, and before we knew it, it was night.

The Pokémon School is where Oak and others currently live. This school was originally founded by Oak.

When his cousin, who was 530 years old, arrived, Cheng Ye Da Mu certainly wouldn't let them stay outside.

"Charizard, it's definitely better to bring it along."

Under the desk lamp, Ash carefully selected his team for tomorrow. Looking at the shrunken Poké Ball in his hand, Ash revealed a genuine smile.

This was my most capable general from the very beginning.

"Pikachu!"

Standing on the table, Pikachu tilted its head and patted its chest cutely as it called out to Ash.

This is him recommending himself.

"Yes, yes, yes! Of course I won't forget you, and the bracelet is ready too."

Zhi rubbed Pikachu's head and smiled in response, then twisted a bracelet on his wrist.

Pikachu is his most beloved and trusted partner, who has accompanied him all the way through his growth. Of course, he will bring it along for tomorrow's battle.

"The world's strongest trainer!"

Having chosen his lineup, Zhi turned his gaze to the window, looking at the beautiful night sky dotted with stars, his eyes shining with anticipation.

That person is the pinnacle of this world!

"I never expected to meet so many people on my first day here. I'll show my mom the photos of me with Ash and Red when I get back."

"Mom will definitely be very surprised, haha~ and so will Xiaoxia, Xiaogang, Lillie and the others."

Zhi murmured softly, as if it were all a dream.

Parallel worlds actually exist.

Although I was very happy and excited during the day, looking back now, it really feels like a dream.

"Pikachu?"

"I'm fine, Pikachu. Let's get some rest today. Tomorrow will definitely be a tough battle."

Satoshi gently rubbed Pikachu's head again and smiled at Pikachu.

And on the playground.

"Hey? Xia, who do you think will win tomorrow's match?"

Ash lay on the grass, a blade of grass dangling from his mouth, and asked Misty, who was playing on her phone beside him.

"Stop asking me! How many times have you asked this already?!"

"What? I was just curious."

Xiao Zhi pouted, but the joy in his eyes didn't diminish at all.

After all, Satoshi is his parallel universe self, and with his 'self' battling against Bakura's entire crew, Satoshi feels like he can't stay calm at all.

"How come it's only eight o'clock! Time is passing so slowly, damn it!" Xiao Zhi glanced at the time; it was only exactly eight o'clock in the evening.

Ash scratched his head anxiously. He really wanted to see it! He desperately wanted to see it!

"Tch~ We'll find out tomorrow, won't we? You really are something."

Xiaoxia rolled her eyes and said to Xiaozhi in an annoyed tone, "This guy is really impatient."

To be honest, Xiaoxia herself is already quite impatient.

Bakura is the strongest in this world, while Tomo is the strongest in his world.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't curious about the clash between two of the world's strongest trainers.

In fact, not only Ash and Misty, but also Green, Red, Oak, and others were full of anticipation for this all-out battle.

And it was in this atmosphere that the night finally passed.

Beeb Stadium is the largest Pokémon stadium in the Alola region.

It will also be the arena where future Alola League tournaments will be held.

"Huh? Cynthia and the others are here too."

Upon entering the Manaro Stadium, Ash and his friends found a seat and looked around, only to find that there weren't many people there.

That makes sense, though. It was a private duel, so there was no need to make a big fuss about it.

However, Xiao Mao soon discovered several figures in another passage.

Cynthia in a black dress, Cattleya in a pink dress, and Giovanni in an expensive suit, among others.

Lillie Yellow was also with Cynthia and the others.

"Ash, you guys are here early too."

Lillie and the others came over, greeted them, and sat down.

Cynthia and the others nodded politely and greeted Yukinari Oki.

Yukinari Ōki is a world-renowned Pokémon professor and the inventor of the Pokédex, so Cynthia and the others naturally know him.

"Xiao Zhi, are you not feeling well?"

Xiao Huang, dressed in a pure white dress, blinked and greeted Xiao Zhi kindly.

Because Ash's dark circles are... well, they're a bit heavy.

"That idiot probably didn't sleep all night."

Xiao Mao rolled his eyes and retorted without holding back.

Given Xiaozhi's excitement last night, it's not impossible that he didn't sleep at all.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. We're just so excited!"

Ash was also a little embarrassed, and after yawning, he said awkwardly.

"We've arrived, and two people have come out."

Just then, Mei's excited voice rang out.

Everyone's attention immediately turned to the arena, where Bakura and Tomo slowly walked out from the passageway.

"The strongest trainer in a parallel world?" Cynthia's beautiful eyes flickered slightly as she glanced at Ash, who had instantly become excited.

That's really unbelievable.

This match is going to be very interesting.

Several drones hovered above the arena, ready to film the entire event; this was prepared by Lillie's people.

The all-out battle between Bakura and Tomo must be filmed perfectly!

"Now let's begin the battle. The battle rules are 6 vs 6, all players battling. The first side to have all six of their Pokémon unable to battle wins!"

"Battle begins!"

The large screen at the front of the arena lit up, displaying the images of Bakura and Satoshi, with six bright Poké Ball icons next to them.

Kukui, dressed in a white coat and temporarily acting as referee, raised his small flag, glanced at both sides, and loudly announced the rules of the match.

"So, are you ready, Zhi? I'm going in."

Bakura gently spun a Poké Ball in his hand, a slight smile playing on his lips as he smiled at Satoshi.

"I won't lose to you."

Without any hesitation, Zhi also took out his Poké Ball.

"That expression is really good, so this will be my first Pokémon."

Bakura's smile deepened as he forcefully threw his first Poké Ball.

"Prepare for battle!"

"Ready for battle, Tyranitar!"

Bakura hurled his Poké Ball with a backhand motion. The Poké Ball opened in mid-air, accompanied by a deep, imposing roar. A colossal beast covered in green armor landed heavily in front of Bakura, its massive weight causing the battlefield to tremble slightly.

It was none other than Tyranitar, the pseudo-god of the Johto region!

"Wow~ Tyranitar! Bakura actually has a Tyranitar?"

Xiaoxia stared in surprise at the Tyranitar with its ferocious aura, having originally thought that Bakura would use Legend.

However, she rarely sees Bakura's own ordinary Pokémon.

The only one I've ever seen is Serperior, which Bakura used in his 1v1 battle against Red in Lavender Town.

"Yes, this Tyranitar was given to Onii-chan by Champion Wataru, although Onii-chan has been carefully raising it."

"But this is the first time Onii-chan has used Tyranitar in battle."

Lillie's eyes narrowed into crescent moons as she looked at Tyranitar in the arena and explained with a smile.

That's right, this Tyranitar is the evolved form of the Larvitar that Lance gave to Bakura after the Dark Lugia incident.

"A very powerful Tyranitar, I wonder what Pokémon Ash will use to fight it."

Yukinari Oki glanced at the Tyranitar, nodded in agreement, and then turned his gaze to Ash.
