Unstoppable

"Snivy, use Vine Whip!"

"Zebstrika, use Thunderbolt!"

"Larvesta, use Flamethrower!"

"Emolga, use Attract!"

"..."

After fierce battles, Ash and Iris defeated their respective opponents and advanced to the semifinals.

Next, the two would compete for a place in the final.

As for Bai Shi, he would face a Pokémon Trainer named Dino.

In the first three rounds, Dino had used Deerling, Tranquill, and Darumaka, respectively.

Bai Shi seized the initiative and commanded Manectric.

A surging azure current shot toward Darumaka.

"Darumaka, quick, use Flamethrower!"

Dino's expression changed abruptly, and
