Chapter 909 - 479: Raihan Can’t Take It Anymore—Ash, Why Are All Your Pokemon Such Oddballs?!
"At least supporting six MEGA evolutions for Pokemon shouldn’t be an issue."
With this sentence, not only Raihan, but even Clair and Lance couldn’t keep their composure.
Six MEGA evolutions, for crying out loud! Are you even human?
The enhancement brought by one MEGA evolution versus six MEGA Pokemon is as different as heaven and earth!
Ash’s kind of amplification, truth be told, is indeed somewhat exaggerated...
But it’s also a unique skill Ash possesses himself. If it’s restricted by rules, then it wouldn’t be very fair.
Therefore, there obviously won’t be any future rule stating "MEGA evolution can only be done once" and the like.
Otherwise, wouldn’t that completely just target Ash?
Raihan once again suppressed his inner shock; after a few battles, Ash had surprised him so many times, it’s hard to keep track.
But the battle must go on. Taking a deep breath, Raihan’s expression became serious: "Whether you can perform six MEGA evolutions or sixty MEGA evolutions, it won’t change the fact that I will win this battle!"
It’s hard to imagine this sentence coming from someone who already lost half their Pokemon, directed at someone whose Pokemon were all still intact...
"I won’t hesitate to attack first, Goodra, use Acid Spray!"
Goodra opened its large, mucus-filled mouth, and a dark violet energy ball gathered in its throat.
The next second, the energy ball transformed into a thick purple beam, shooting straight towards Gardevoir.
The Poison Type energy churned in the air, its mere presence causing dizziness.
For the Fairy Type Gardevoir, Poison Type moves have a restraining effect.
Goodra has an outstanding skill set, which is why Raihan claims to not fear Fairy Type Pokemon at all.
Even without using Dragon Type moves, Goodra’s skills are numerous.
"Gardevoir, Psychic," Ash exclaimed, waving his hand.
Gardevoir gently raised her delicate hand, a faintly purple spiritual power spread like ripples from her fingertips.
The Acid Spray was halted several meters from her by the spiritual force, the entire energy ball suddenly stopped mid-air.
Following that, Gardevoir lightly flicked her finger.
The suspended Acid Spray was bounced back along the original path, shooting back towards Goodra.
Goodra quickly dodged, the Acid Spray brushed past its shoulder and ultimately hit the barrier at the edge of the arena, causing purple sparks to fly.
"Impressive, now what about this move!" Raihan praised, preparing the next skill move, "Goodra, Thunderbolt!"
Golden lightning suddenly surged around Goodra.
The next moment, the lightning transformed into a thick electric column, whizzing towards Gardevoir.
"Dazzling Gleam," Ash’s command rang out again.
Gardevoir raised her slender hands, a brilliant colorful light ball forming between her palms.
The light ball emanated a dreamlike color, meeting the incoming Thunderbolt head-on.
"Boom!"
The two powers collided fiercely in mid-air, golden streams of electricity intertwined with rainbow-colored Fairy energy, ultimately exploding together.
The shockwaves lifted the dust in the center of the arena, ripples spreading across the barrier.
"Goodra, Muddy Water!"
"Gardevoir, Psyshock!"
"Goodra, Flamethrower!"
"Gardevoir, Shadow Ball!"
Back and forth they went, various attribute moves clashing fiercely in the middle of the arena.
Water, fire, electricity, psychic waves, fairy light, dark energy...almost every attribute’s energy played out a magnificent feast in the arena’s center.
The battle arena quickly became a wreck.
The already broken floor was shattered further by the bombardment from various attribute energies, cracks spread like a web toward the corners of the arena.
The metal stands around the arena shook from the shockwaves, emitting a buzzing metal resonance.
The most visible were the transparent protective barriers surrounding the arena; waves of ripples overlapped densely, seemingly about to shatter at any moment from the clash between these two champion-level Pokemon.
Raihan’s face grew more excited, the rare thrill and exhilaration surged through him continuously.
"This punch-for-punch battle is what true fighting is all about!"
On the spectator stands, Lance observed the fiercely intense scene on the stage, slowly commented.
"Both Pokemon’s skill sets are quite extensive, almost covering all the main attribute attack types."
"Goodra cannot use Dragon Type moves due to attribute reasons; otherwise, the Fairy Type Gardevoir wouldn’t be harmed at all."
"But thinking from another perspective, Gardevoir’s level is also slightly lower than Goodra’s, even after using MEGA evolution, its raw strength is still a bit weaker. After all, champion advanced level isn’t easy to close in on."
"Right now, the gap between both sides is one can’t use its main attribute ultimate move and the other is slightly inferior in level. Combine both disadvantages and it seems to lead to a balanced match."
"The key now will be determined by who has the better physical strength."
We’re back again to testing endurance, however...Gardevoir isn’t Lugia!
Hearing this, Clair instinctively analyzed.
"Dragon Type Pokemon are renowned worldwide for their outstanding physical strength, especially Goodra, known for its hefty body; its endurance far surpasses that of ordinary Pokemon."
"Judging by pure physical strength, Goodra should be stronger, right?"
