Ash's Pokémon Travel Has Big Problems

He was almost unable to resist the urge to take action.

“Plan? Hahaha!” Cross laughed triumphantly, admitting it without any hesitation.

“That’s right! It was I who suggested it to Amado and Kosaburo!”

"Take advantage of these mindless sludge and those idiots' feelings for them!"

"What a perfect plan!"

"Look at the devastation this city is in!"

"This is what happens when you rebel against the Rockets and offend me, Kroos!"

With a wave of his hand, the two Poké Balls opened.

The mane-wielding werewolf bared its teeth, its eyes fierce.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger pounded its chest and let out a defiant roar.

At the same time, several Grimer ...

It would be nice to use what you have on hand to tame a few powerful Grimer.

Because Black Cloud City was once a chemical industry city, the Mud monsters born here are all poisonous.

Its minimum combat strength is very high.

Standing atop the golden Gyarados head, overlooking the arrogant Kroos below and the city that had been plunged into suffering because of him, an unprecedented rage surged within Ash's chest.

The golden Gyarados seemed to sense the trainer's emotions and let out a deafening roar.

His scarlet eyes were fixed on Cross, filled with primal rage.

As long as Ash gives the order, he will tear it up along with the surrounding slime—literally.

Gyarados can control its rage after training, but that doesn't mean the rage disappears.

Ash took a deep breath and placed his hand on the Poké Ball at his waist.

He originally intended to show no mercy and release all his companions to crush this bastard who caused the disaster with overwhelming force!

What's the point of talking about morality when dealing with scum like this?

We are all together!

But just as he was about to take action...

He could clearly feel one of the Poké Balls at his waist throbbing violently.

A burning fighting spirit passed through the Poké Ball and directly into his palm—it was Charmeleon!

The beating was so intense, filled with resentment, anger, and a desire to prove oneself.

It seems to be saying: Hand this guy over to me!

Charmeleon was captured by Cross when he was young and ignorant.

After Xiaozhi's training over this period of time.

I have grown a lot, both physically and mentally.

The thought that the person who once tamed her was actually this kind of person... made Charmeleon furious!!!

However, it won't come out of the Poké Ball on its own without Ash's command.

Xiao Zhi's movements stopped.

He looked down at the bouncing Poké Ball, then looked up at Cross, who stood below with an arrogant expression, convinced that he couldn't do without his companion's help.

In an instant, he changed his mind.

This was not only to shatter Cross's mockery of "winning by sheer numbers," but also to respond to Charmeleon's fiery and proud heart.

It needs this battle.

It needs to prove to itself that it has the power to defeat powerful enemies.

It needs to say goodbye to the past.

And nothing is more fitting as this ritual than a battle for power.

"Pikachu?" Pikachu on Ash's shoulder keenly sensed the change in Ash's thoughts and called out in confusion.

It felt that the fastest and safest way to deal with this kind of enemy was for everyone to attack together.

"Mama?" The dream monster, covered in a plastic bag, tilted its head.

She has always been indifferent to such things.

It doesn't matter who you hit.

The golden Gyarados let out a low growl of dissatisfaction.

It would rather teach that bastard who dared to ambush it a lesson with its own destructive beam—blast him to smithereens.

But Ash raised his hand and gently comforted his friends.

"I understand what you mean."

His gaze hardened again as he looked at Cross, "But this one, we'll leave to Charizard."

Ash's aura began to flow into the Poké Ball.

This isn't a formal dojo duel; in a sense, it's a street fight.

In that case, it's only natural for the trainer and the Pokémon to go together!

Xiao Zhi is not a rigid person.

It's true that Charizard mainly does the work, but that doesn't mean he doesn't get involved at all.

He threw the Poké Ball with all his might: "I choose you, Charmeleon!"

"Gaaah—!!!" A flash of red light, and Charizard landed heavily on the ground.

The flames on its tail shot up with a roar, as if fuel had been poured into it, and the scorching heat wave spread out, revealing its boiling fighting spirit.

Charmeleon's eyes were fixed on the Blazing Roaring Tiger opposite it, without the slightest fear.

...It was very unhappy with the tiger that often bullied it.

Kroos was taken aback at first.

Then, as if they had heard the funniest joke, they began to mock them arrogantly again:

"Hahaha! A one-on-one fight?"

"You think you can just pick up this unevolved, useless Charizard that I threw away?"

"You want to fight against my Blazing Roaring Tiger?"

"Ash, have you gone mad with anger?"

"Without Xiaogang and Xiaoxia, the two dojo masters, by your side, you really are just daydreaming!"

However, despite the mockery, Kroos's twisted pride deep inside was also stirred up.

He wanted to completely crush one of Ash's ace fighters in a head-on battle, which would satisfy his desire for revenge more than simply ganging up on him.

"as you wish!"

"Blazing Roaring Tiger, let this little lizard we abandoned know what true power is!"

Cross wanted to defeat Ash head-on.

He wanted to shatter the self-esteem of this arrogant brat in front of him, bit by bit, in the most ruthless and brutal way.

"Charmeleon, let's go!" Ash closed his eyes, then opened them again in an instant, and the nascent Aura within him surged like a stream awakening.

It had previously injected a portion of its waveguide into the Charizard's body.

Waveguides of the same origin have the same wave frequency.

This means literally "together".

"Gaaah—!!!" The Charmeleon, enhanced by the waveguide, felt its entire body filled with explosive power, and every cell was cheering with joy.

It roared to the sky, its body seemingly enveloped in an invisible aura. With a stomp of its foot, the ground cracked slightly, and its body shot towards the Blazing Roaring Tiger like an arrow released from a bow!

"You're courting death! Blazing Roaring Tiger, DD Golden Hook Arm!" Cross grinned maliciously.

Incineroar roared, its thick arms wrapped in scorching flames and Dark-type energy, like a burning windmill, smashing down on the charging Charizard with an aura of crushing everything!

Cross is not a good person.

But he is indeed an elite trainer.

Compared to Bishas who uses Dark Balls, Cross is still able to achieve better synergy with his Pokémon.

...At least for now, that's what we can do.

...It's quite possible that his skill level will continue to decline.

After all, there has never been a saying in this world that only progress in strength is allowed, but regression is not.

Faced with this powerful and heavy blow, Charmeleon did not take it head-on.

Under Xiao Zhi's silent command, it maximizes the agility granted by the waveguide.

Being short has its advantages.

Charmeleon ducked low and slid through Incineroar's armpit with a daring tackle, its flaming claws slashing fiercely at its opponent's waist and abdomen.

"Sizzle!" The claws collided with the flames, producing a piercing sound.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger, in pain, roared and turned around, its other claw lashing out with a fierce gust of wind towards Charmeleon's back.

Charizard seemed to have eyes in the back of its head. It slammed its tail into the ground and used the force to spring to the side, spewing out blazing flames from its mouth—Flame Blast!

Not to be outdone, the Blazing Roaring Tiger unleashed an even thicker pillar of fire from its belt to meet the attack!

"boom--!!!"

The two pillars of fire collided violently in mid-air.

The shockwave from the explosion dried the surface of several Grimer bodies in the vicinity somewhat.

A scorching wave of air swept over.

It reflected Ash's serious posture and Cross's gradually changing expression, from disdain to solemnity.

Compared to Ash, he was wearing a gas mask.

Kroos didn't bring it?

I don't know if my sense of smell has completely failed.

The clash between flames and claws, the collision between waveguides and brute force, has carved out a small stage full of tension and danger on this chaotic battlefield.

Charmeleon and Blazing Roaring Tiger.

These are two Pokémon that are both engulfed in flames.

Figures clashed, and roars echoed.

The battle was intense from the very beginning, with neither side gaining a clear advantage!

The two sides are old rivals.

For Blazing Roaring Tiger, how could his underling, who used to always be bullied by him, now dare to rebel against him?

This is simply unreasonable!

For Charmeleon, this was the final battle to bid farewell to its past cowardice and ignorance.

I am not the same person I used to be.

Chapter 165 Ash realizes the Rainbow Hero Trials have begun

Crimson flames shimmered on his body.

A deep blue waveguide light bloomed in his pupils.

[The power of waveguides lies in our hearts]

An invisible bridge is built between Ash and Charmeleon.

Power, an unprecedented surge of power, like a torrent bursting its banks, poured continuously into the Charizard's limbs and bones.
