Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game

It was raining, and the burning damage there couldn't even harm Milotic's scales.

As if guided by a divine will, Milotic, whose mind was in tune with Xia Chen's, understood the trainer's intention the instant the command was given, and immediately flew in that direction at top speed!

This is a race against time.

If Milotic can reach the finish line before Max Pummel Slam lands, Cinderace's first Max move will be completely wasted!

Chapter 413 Okay, this is so Xia Chen (Last day, please vote!!)

In the fistfight arena.

This special exhibition match, the first in human Pokémon competition history to utilize Dynamax, is currently underway.

A giant fireball, radiating intense heat, stood in the half of the field where Cinderace was located, showing no signs of being affected by the torrential rain.

Just a dozen meters from the bottom of the fireball, Milotic nimbly swayed its body, trying to dodge the giant fist that was rapidly falling from behind.

The distance between the two rapidly closed.

Speed ​​has never been Milotic's strong suit, even after its metamorphosis.

This disadvantage becomes increasingly apparent when facing the champion-level Mega Flare Ace.

Even though Milotic had already rushed out and consciously dodged before his opponent used his move, he still couldn't completely escape the terrifying range of the Max Gauntlet's attack, and the back half of his body was unfortunately grazed by the energy of the gauntlet.

"Waaah—"

The power of a Champion-level Dynamax move is astonishing. Even though Milotic was only injured in the tail, which is not a vital part of its body, it was still seriously hurt by this massive and terrifying energy.

Worse still, the Max Punch was successfully unleashed, and Cinderace, standing atop the giant fireball, was covered in orange light, clearly a sign that the attack enhancement had been successfully completed!

With a flick of his cloak, Dan Di commanded with great confidence, "Then, Max Air Charge!"

Cinderace already has sufficient attack power, and after being boosted by Max Punch, it is more than enough to defeat Milotic.

Therefore, for his second precious Dynamax move, Leon chose Dynamax Fly, which can boost speed!

The strength of a Dynamax move is related to the power of the original move. Cinderace uses a Flying-type move called Bounce, which has a power similar to Flamethrower.

Therefore, after Dynamaxing, the damage of this flying attack is extremely high, not to mention the boost from Max Knuckle.

It is certain that if the hit is successful, Milotic will have no chance of maintaining consciousness!

So, how will Xia Chen and Milotic respond?

The audience couldn't help but turn their attention to the area below the giant fireball.

"Milotic...use that move!"

Xia Chen's voice was transmitted to the battlefield through the microphone.

The audience looked completely bewildered.

What kind of move is that?

…………

"Ah, so Miss Cynthia doesn't know what that move is either?"

Cattleya smiled mysteriously, "I thought you knew everything about me~"

Cynthia remained calm, pretending not to understand the old slut's implied meaning.

"Nobody knows just how many secrets this guy is hiding."

"Let's see together what [that move] is..."

Before he finished speaking, a sudden storm broke out on the battlefield.

The violent airflow whistled and howled at extremely high speeds, and countless flying-type energies came with the wind, condensing into a storm that almost covered the entire arena!

Under the influence of violent flight-type energy, turbulent airflow was ground into sharp wind blades, attempting to bring everything in the area into the raging storm.

With its unstoppable Max Airstream attack, Cinderace can control Wind Blades to cut through the mud and strike Milotic, even if Milotic hides under a Fireball or burrows into the ground.

Just as countless wind blades were slashing toward Milotic, beneath the fireball, Milotic's body, which was covered by the crystal, suddenly shone with a dazzling blue-gold light!

A dazzling, strange light flowed across Milotic's body, and in an instant, every wind blade carrying terrifying flight-attribute energy vanished as if it were a piece of paper hitting a steel plate.

With each wind blade it deflected, Milotic's body shone even brighter.

At the same time, his graceful figure rose upwards like a swimming dragon.

As Milotic reached the summit, the blue-gold light on his body suddenly erupted, condensing into a terrifying energy body shaped like a flying dragon, roaring as it charged towards the Cinderace diagonally below!

Cinderace's expression changed drastically, because he could sense that the energy fluctuations... were in no way weaker than the Max Airstream he had just unleashed!

how can that be!

How could a Pokémon at the Champion level unleash power surpassing that of a Champion without any enhancement?

"The Great Barrier!"

Dan's voice forced Cinderace to calm himself down, and his last bit of Max Air power condensed into a protective barrier in front of him.

then.

boom--

The deafening roar of the energy collision echoed through the sky, and the newly renovated arena seemed to tremble slightly from the aftershocks of Milotic's terrifying attack.

…………

"This move... is pretty powerful."

Even Cattleya couldn't help but sigh at it.

"If I'm not mistaken, [that move] should absorb the energy of the opponent's move and then return it."

Cynthia nodded in agreement, "That's right, otherwise Milotic wouldn't have been able to cause such widespread destruction."

"This is equivalent to combining [Defend] with a weaker version of [Double Up], and its practicality... can only be described as extremely powerful."

Cynthia's assessment is somewhat conservative.

Although this awakened move, named [Yinglong in the Sky], only returns a single amount of damage, its defensive attributes are even stronger than [Guard].

The energy barrier formed by [Defend] is not indestructible; if the power of the move is too great—

For example, the difference in strength, or the use of Dynamax moves, or even extreme attacks like [Sneak Attack] that can penetrate Defense.

Even holding on cannot provide perfect defense.

But this move works.

When in the [Yinglong in the Sky] state, Milotic is invincible!

However, such a powerful move comes with very strict limitations.

It has a longer "cooldown" than [Guard], and consumes more attack energy than [Leap into the Abyss].

Even so, it is still an impeccable and perfect divine skill.

This is also why Xia Chen chose to start for Milner.

You think this is the stage for Gigantamax Cinderace?

No, this is my Milotic showtime!

The only pity is that Leon's choices and judgments were very sharp, and he decisively used his last Dynamax move to defend against Milotic's counterattack.

Otherwise, the Yinglong in the Sky, which uses the enemy's own methods against them, will surely severely damage the Blazing Flame Ace!

From the audience's perspective, this move was a huge success!

With just one "normal" move, it traded two Dynamax moves from Gigantamax Cinderace, and even emerged unscathed!

Cinderace's Dynamaxing was essentially pointless...

It's not entirely lonely, though. The additional effects of Max Punch and Max Fly are triggered, which is equivalent to using a Dragon Dance.

But Dynamaxing is over just like that...

Watching the giant fireball dissipate and the Flame Ace return to normal, the audience clicked their tongues in amazement, feeling somewhat unsatisfied.

Wait a minute, Dan Di has already used Dynamax, but Xia Chen hasn't used it yet.

Just as he was thinking this, on the battlefield, Xia Chen suddenly recalled Milotic.

Instead, they sent out the next Pokémon.

Sylveon!

…………

"Hmm, so you're trading Pokémon when things are going well?"

"That's definitely Xia Chen's behavior," Gadri commented.

Cynthia pondered Xia Chen's thoughts, "Perhaps that move consumed too much of Milotic's energy, or perhaps he felt that he had outlasted Cinderace's Dynamax and it was his turn to counterattack."

"The key now is that Sylveon and the remaining Gardevoir can both Mega Evolve and Gigantamax. Let's see what Xia Chen will choose."

"Yes, it's a Keystone. As expected, Xia Chen thinks that Super Sylvanas is still stronger in combat."

Bathed in platinum-gold super-evolutionary light, Sylveon transforms into an elegant and mysterious Super Sylveon.

Then he unleashed his first move—

thunder!

In the rain, it is certain that an Electric-type Special Attack move will hit. Moreover, since Cinderace used Max Airstream in the previous move, it is weak to Electric and is a Flying-type move!

"Flame Ace, Mud Throw!"

As expected, Dan commanded Cinderace to use a Ground-type move.

Although its power is mediocre and it's not even a physical attack move that Cinderace excels at, why not take advantage of the free attack?

Ground-type energy gathers, the Free Spirit trait is triggered, and Flame Ace immediately switches to the Ground attribute.

At the same time, dozens of blocks of energy-condensed mud hurtled toward the location of Super Fairy Cloth.

Just as the dirty mud was about to touch Super Fairy Cloth's clean body, a red light suddenly flashed.

Has the fairy cloth been taken back?
