Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

King Nido looked at the exam paper in horror.

take an exam?

What kind of exam is it?

Forget about answering questions, all it knows in its life is fighting and eating. It's never learned any of this stuff!

Time passed by, second by second.

King Nido was sweating profusely as it tried to scribble a few lines on the exam paper, but as soon as it finished, the others around it burst into laughter at its mistakes.

The exam paper was automatically restored to its original state.

Seeing himself looking exactly like this, Nidoking felt like he was suffocating.

Fortunately, judging from the countdown, it will be over in three minutes.

Tick, tick.

Time's up.

Your score: 0. Please retake the exam.

what? !

The exam paper was refreshed and became a brand new one, and the questions were also refreshed to an unfamiliar format.

Nidoking was devastated. It tried to roar, but found that it could no longer make a sound.

It was as if it had been taken away with the sound of failing.

Those identical "selves" staring intently at it seemed to have moved even closer.

The second time, the third time, the fourth time...

Every time it's a score of 0, every time it's a fresh start.

Those beings drew closer, their expressions became increasingly distorted, and one's own senses were being constantly stripped away.

Nido's consciousness was gradually crushed in the endless re-examination.

It began to weep, and it began to tremble.

It would rather take a hundred of Mewtwo's Destruction Rays than see that exam paper even once more!

In the real world, Nidoking's massive body collapsed to his knees with a thud, his knees hitting the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust, after just one glance.

Its eyes were glazed over, its pupils completely dilated, its mouth slightly open, and saliva dripping down its chin.

It has completely lost the ability to fight.

It's not about physical strength, but about willpower.

Gengar nodded in satisfaction.

This is the power of knowledge that Ash was talking about!

This move recreated one of the most delicious nightmares it had ever experienced in the research institute.

—An illusion called 'Infinite Reincarnation Exam'!

The difficulty of the exam increases with each challenge!

We'll specifically target those who are ignorant and incompetent!

........

Across from them, Mewtwo, sporting Giovanni's face, had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

What's up with this person's Pokémon?

The fighting style is so bizarre?

Don't people from the Kanto region all like to confront things head-on?

It didn't say a word, but silently took out Nidoking's Poké Ball, and with a flash of red light, it recalled the body that was kneeling on the ground with a broken expression.

Then, he slowly took out the second Poké Ball.

A flash of red light appeared.

A colossal beast, even more imposing than Nidoking, appeared in the arena.

Equally robust limbs.

It also has a long, spiraling horn on top.

The only difference is its appearance; it is covered in gray rock armor.

This is a rhinoceros with extremely rich combat experience.

"Ooh!"

Just as the much more composed rhinoceros was about to raise its head, a thought was sent into the depths of its consciousness.

【Don't look at each other, don't look at each other, don't look at each other!】

In this brief exchange, Mewtwo, who had been outmaneuvered by Giovanni countless times, finally began to understand the implications.

Gengar's hypnotic ability is triggered through its eyes!

As long as you don't look into its eyes, the advantage is still on their side!

Upon hearing this, the rhinoceros with the horned horn was taken aback.

Then he forcefully lowered his head and tried to determine Gengar's location by looking through its lower body.

They only look below the belly; they don't look an inch more.

The next second, under Mewtwo's command, it moved.

Its speed far exceeds that of ordinary rhinoceroses.

Its massive body charged forward with an eerie agility, each step it took cracking the ground, sending pebbles and dust flying from its feet to the sides.

No matter how Gengar shakes or makes deceptive feints, those little eyes remain fixed on Gengar's toes.

A single shot straight to the drill.

The long horn tore through the air, piercing straight into Gengar's chest with a sharp whistling sound.

Gengar narrowly dodged it with a twist of its body.

However, the rhinoceros's reaction speed was also astonishingly fast. With an additional attack, its tail swept across from behind.

This caught Gengar completely off guard.

After all, it's a traditional ranged mage; melee combat really isn't its strong suit.

"bump--!"

With a muffled thud, Gengar was sent flying backward like a sandbag, crashing into the wall and creating a spherical dent.

The rhinoceros with the horned horn did not choose to pursue, but calmly retreated to its original position and clashed its fists together.

Under Mewtwo's command, Rock Blast was used once again!

With a series of punches, sharp-edged rocks materialized from its fists and shot out, blasting at Gengar like a barrage of bullets.

The situation on the field reversed instantly.

With its overwhelming strength and obedience, Rhyhorn gradually reduced Gengar's living space.

Gengar dodged left and right, weaving through the barrage of rock projectiles, nearly getting hit head-on several times.

Unable to make eye contact, Gengar's hypnosis technique is completely ineffective.

In addition, there was the fierce offensive from the other side.

After several rounds of fighting, Gengar was panting heavily and had several wounds on its body.

But there was no panic in Ash's eyes; instead, they lit up.

His pupils dilated slightly, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up. He stood there with his fists half-clenched.

That's more like it!

That's more like it!!

This is the kind of difficulty a dojo should have!

How can you improve if you don't push yourself?

Ash took a deep breath, his gaze quickly scanning back and forth between Gengar and Rhyhorn, his brain working at lightning speed.

"Gengar!" Ash thought for a moment and immediately came up with a plan. He swung his arm and shouted, "Use Ice Punch!"

"Gag?"

Gengar was taken aback.

Freeze Fist?

How could that possibly hit...? Wait, you mean?!

Its pupils suddenly lit up, and the corners of its mouth slowly stretched towards its ears, revealing a mischievous grin of sudden realization.

Yes! That's exactly what you think!

Xiao Zhi nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

It knows!

Gengar dodged to the side, and a rock whistled past its shoulder, smashing into the wall behind it and shattering into pieces.

It nodded solemnly.

Then he raised his right fist high, and cold air surged from his palm, clinging and condensing, forming an ice-blue gauntlet in just two seconds.

This made Mewtwo frown.

What do you mean?

The attributes are mutually restraining... but it's so far?

Is this some kind of close-quarters combat?

Mewtwo's confusion lasted only a fraction of a second.
