Pokemon: This Ash Is Too Versatile

As the commands were issued from both sides, the two Pokemon began to gather their respective skills.

Dragonite let out a thunderous growl, flapping all the wings on its head and back in a nearly frenzied manner.

Its four wings stirred the air, creating a massive storm with a diameter of dozens of meters.

The ceiling of the gym had long been opened, and the high-altitude airflow was engulfed by the storm, forming a funnel-shaped terrifying vortex.

The debris at the edge of the field was swept into the wind, and the ripples on the barrier vibrated violently, emitting a low hum.

"Whoooa——!"

Dragonite infused all the remaining power within its body into this attack.

The storm, like a roaring giant dragon, surged towards Altaria in mid-air.

Altaria raised its neck, and a pink light sphere larger than any before began to form in its mouth.

The light sphere emitted a dazzling glow, dyeing the surrounding air a pale pink.

The full burst of Moonblast was almost beyond Altaria’s limits!

In the next second, Moonblast transformed into a pink torrent, colliding head-on with the sweeping storm.

The two forces clashed fiercely in mid-air.

The storm furiously ripped at Moonblast’s energy, scattering pink light in the vortex.

Moonblast also desperately eroded the interior of the storm, trying to dismantle the emerald wind pillar from its center.

The air emitted an unbearable explosive sound, with shockwaves spreading outwards, hitting the barrier and casting dense ripples.

Both Pokemon were exhausting their last ounce of strength.

Dragonite’s four wings flapped slower and slower, each flap feeling like moving a mountain.

The Moonblast in Altaria’s mouth flickered on and off, ready to extinguish at any moment.

Eventually, the pink light broke free from the storm, rushing towards Dragonite.

At that moment, Dragonite was still controlling the storm’s power, but... she had almost no energy left, relying on instinct to stay aloft.

Therefore, even if she could see the incoming trajectory of Moonblast clearly, despite its slower attack speed than typical skills, she had little strength to dodge.

The pink light rapidly enlarged in Dragonite’s amber pupils.

"Bang!"

Moonblast slammed solidly into Dragonite’s chest.

Dragonite’s massive body plummeted from the sky like a golden meteor, crashing heavily into the center of the field.

The ground was smashed into a large pit, debris splattering, and dust rising to the sky.

Simultaneously, the storm in the air lost control at the moment Dragonite fell.

The raging wind pillar exploded, enveloping the equally exhausted Altaria, tossing her to the field’s edge like a torn leaf.

Altaria couldn’t even utter a scream before she hit the barrier, sliding down its transparent surface and collapsing on the ground.

The dust gradually dispersed.

Dragonite lay in the pit’s center, eyes closed tightly, scales on her chest shattered, and a large patch of white feathers burned black.

Altaria lay at the edge of the barrier, her fluffy feathers in disarray, elegant wings drooped powerlessly to the ground.

Both Pokemon simultaneously lost their fighting ability.

This result shocked everyone; both Pokemon lost their combat capability again?!

Once in a battle could be considered coincidental, but now it’s happened twice.

This battle was truly magical!

After a moment of silence, both sides took out their Pokeballs and recalled their Pokemon.

"You worked hard, Dragonite, you did well, next time we’ll surely do better."

Ash smiled, comforting Dragonite in the Pokeball. As a first battle, being able to fight evenly with the opponent exceeded Ash’s expectations.

In terms of combat aptitude, battle experience, Dragonite was far behind Ash’s other Pokemon.

After all, since she was captured as a Dragonair, she hadn’t fought in a proper battle; all the fights were internal.

Even with his command and cooperation, she indeed couldn’t compare to other Pokemon.

Overcoming a large level and a small level, being able to go down together with the opponent, Dragonite definitely could feel proud.

On the other side, Clair also comforted her Pokemon, feeling a sense of defeat.

Before meeting Ash today, she was quite confident in her command level.

She felt she might not catch up with her cousin but should be very close.

Her current commanding level was definitely comparable to a Champion Trainer.

However, after two battles, her champion dreams were shattered.

What Champion Trainer... being continuously leveled-up fought twice, and both all went down together.

Even with stronger Pokemon, being fought like this, it was enough to show the gap between trainers.

She was indeed outclassed!

However... if the opponent was a seasoned champion like Cynthia or Lance, even if outclassed, she could accept.

But the opponent was just a boy not yet sixteen, several years younger than her!

With a debut less than a year, not only did his Pokemon’s strength match up, but even his training levels far exceeded his current age.

He was simply a monster!

The rumors about Ash circulating before, truly weren’t wrong, the Kanto Superstar, the new era’s most likely trainer to challenge Leon, talent far surpassing Leon’s genius...
