Ignoring the two who started Uproar again, Steven took out a bottle of Potion in a clear test tube from his Spatial Bracelet and handed it to Wallace.
Wallace took the clear test tube, looked at the blue liquid inside, and asked Steven what the blue liquid inside was.
"This is our latest Energy Potion developed by Devon Corporation. It can help Pokémon Trainers quickly replenish the energy they need, and instantly improve Pokémon Trainer reaction and concentration."
Suitable for use before Mega Evolution, it can basically guarantee you 20 minutes of continuous Mega Evolution, however..."
Upon hearing Steven mention that he could use the energy within his body to prepare for a 20-minute Mega Evolution, Wallace immediately uncorked the test tube and poured a vial of Energy Potion into his body.
A bitter taste filled his mouth.
"But what?"
"However, there are side effects. About 20 minutes after taking the Potion, the body becomes unusually weak. Therefore, we only use it after careful consideration."
"Damn it, why didn't you say so sooner?"
"I hadn't even finished speaking before you drank it!"
"I thought you handed it to me to drink!"
Steven didn't know what to say to Wallace; their Devon Corporation was currently submitting an application to the Pokémon League.
Hopefully, this Potion can be used appropriately in competitions to compensate for competitors' insufficient stamina to support Mega Evolution.
There are actually Energy Potions like this?
Roy, who was standing nearby, was also intrigued when he heard this. It was true that the rich relied on technology. However, he didn't care and didn't need this kind of Potion at all.
If it weren't for the fact that the energy within the Ancient Gengar couldn't hold up, the Ghost Power within it could have fully supported the Ancient Gengar in maintaining its Mega Evolution form.
Just as Steven had said, the blue Energy Potion perfectly. One minute after drinking it, Wallace felt his body brimming with power again.
Having successfully Charge Wallace is now full of confidence.
Since I've already drunk it, I might as well be Steven's guinea pig and test the side effects, but I can't waste these twenty minutes.
"Roy, let's have a Mega Evolution battle!"
"Are you sure you can do it? You?"
"You're not scared after seeing how powerful my Mega Starmie is, are you?"
"What a joke! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
As they talked, the two turned and headed towards the Sooto City Gym.
Steven was left alone, bewildered in the wind.
Didn't you say you were coming to pick me up?
"You two, wait for me! You bastards!"
After putting Aerodactyl into his Poké Ball, Steven quickly set off to catch up, knowing full well that those two idiots wouldn't wait for him.
The two arrived at the Water Battle Arena in the Gym of Sootopolis City. Since the Gym had already closed for the day, Steven, who was at the back, was pulled in to act as the temporary referee.
Steven was speechless; he felt like he had come here simply to be the referee for these two.
"Starmie, it's you I choose!"
Wallace sent out his Starmie, while Roy wanted to send out the Ancient Gengar, but Chandelure requested to fight through Mind Communication.
Roy thought for a moment and agreed to Chandelure's request to fight. Although his Chandelure was weak against Starmie, Chandelure was also Psychic type against Psychic/ Water type Starmie.
The Chandelure appeared opposite the Starmie.
Seeing Roy actually take out the Chandelure, which was countered by his own Starmie, Wallace declared that he was determined to avenge himself today, and touched the Key Stone in the center of the seashell bracelet with both hands.
"The sea will remember the legends of heroes, and gems will shine here. Starmie, Mega Evolution!"
(Thanks to the reader for submitting the quote. I picked one with the most likes, which is much better than what I came up with myself. I'm now collecting quotes from the Mega Froslass. Feel free to leave your ideas in the comments section. Don't worry about being awkward, thank you everyone!)
Wallace shouted out the slogan he had spent the entire afternoon coming up with.
Roy took out his Pocket Watch and activated the Key Stone inside.
"The ghost lights the lamp, the spirit fire reignites, the Chandelure, Mega Evolution!"
Both Pokémon emitted a glow of evolution simultaneously, and Mega Starmie and Mega Chandelure appeared on opposite sides of the Arena at the same time.
When the temporary referee, Steven, saw the Mega Chandelure appear, he was taken aback. He didn't recall Chandelure being on the list of Pokémon that could Mega Evolution released by the Kalos League.
Fortunately, Mega Chandelure looks pretty cool, but when Steven sees Mega Starmie, he's completely dumbfounded.
What is this thing?
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen Starmie Mega Evolution before? Shout 'Start!'"
Seeing Steven's surprised look, Wallace urged him on.
"Oh... the battle begins!"
This was also the first time Wallace had seen the Mega Chandelure, and the Mega Starmie's extraordinary performance that morning did not make him blindly confident.
He knew Roy, that old fox, all too well. Roy was probably just waiting for him to make the first move, and then he was going to ambush him.
But I cannot grant Roy's wish.
"Starmie, use a continuous Water Gun to test its abilities!"
The red gem at the center of the Mega Starmie's body suddenly lit up, and in the next instant, it fired several Water Gun, aiming directly at the Mega Chandelure in mid-air.
"Chandelure, use the Energy Ball to send it back at him!"
Green Grass-type Energy appeared on the base of the Mega Chandelure. A dozen or so small Energy Balls collided with the Water Gun, and the emerald green light and clear water splashed out instantly.
The emerald green Energy Ball trembled slightly from the impact of the water flow, but it still withstood the force of the Water Gun and blasted towards the Mega Starmie with a burst of water.
The Mega Starmie quickly dodged into the water, watching the emerald green Energy Ball explode on the surface, creating splashes of water.
For the next period of time, Wallace simply had Mega Starmie constantly test Mega Chandelure.
After discovering that Roy's Mega Chandelure and the previous Starmie were both positioned as turrets, Wallace knew clearly that these turrets all had one characteristic: their bodies were generally quite fragile.
It's a bit of a shame that most of Mega Starmie's physical attack moves are average and ineffective against Ghost type Pokémon.
Fortunately, it still has the Water type Razor Shell skill, which is effective against Mega Chandelure.
As long as I can get close...
Wallace commands the Mega Starmie to approach the Mega Chandelure, which resembles a giant cannon turret in the air.
Before the Mega Starmie could even move, countless Ghostly Purple flames on the Mega Chandelure holder transformed into Shadow Balls and Energy Balls containing Grass-type Energy, launching them from all directions without any blind spots.
Mega Starmie is impossible to get close to; you can only use ranged skills to whittle down its health and dodge, waiting for Mega Chandelure's offensive to stop before trying to get close.
The following scene shows Mega Chandelure continuously unleashing its skills, while Mega Starmie can only dodge in three positions: underwater, on the floating platform, and on the water's surface.
However, after dodging for a long time, the Mega Chandelure showed no signs of stopping. The opponent continued to release Shadow Balls and Energy Balls of varying sizes and speeds from the Mega Starmie.
It's as if the body has an inexhaustible supply of energy.
