"Hey, it's Miss Viola!"
Ash shouted in surprise, he had challenged Santalune Gym some time ago.
Viola nodded with a smile and glanced at everyone:
"Ash, Barry, and Xiaoyun, long time no see."
She even remembered Barry's name. Apparently Barry had also challenged her gym.
"By the way, why is Miss Viola here?" Barry couldn't help but asked curiously.
"I am the Duke of Battle Chateau. I come here often."
Viola said, his eyes suddenly turned to the top of the floor-to-ceiling windows, his tone was a bit teasing:
"Grant, why don't you come down and say hello?"
Bang!
"Ouch!"
There was a muffled sound accompanied by a cry of pain, and a tall man in a suit fell from the floor-to-ceiling window, rubbing his waist and grinning:
"Hey, why did you call me suddenly?"
The man has the same dark complexion as Brock, his hair is uniquely styled, and he wears colorful decorations. He wears a decent suit but does not cover up his capable aura at all.
"Are you... Haruka Gym Leader Grant?"
Xiaoyun recognized him and raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Oh? It's an honor for me, Mr. Inspector, to know me."
Grant immediately put away his cry of pain, smiled and held his hands, but he was complaining crazily in his heart:
It's over, he was still recognized, and if he sneaked out to play, it wouldn't affect the assessment results.
It's all Viola's fault, she must be compensated.
Well... just punish her by becoming his girlfriend!
"Grant, Viola, you are all here, long time no see!"
Clemont walked up and greeted warmly.
"Hey, Clemont."
Grant patted his shoulder and asked thoughtfully, "Didn't you already take back your position as the owner? Why are you still hanging around outside?"
Could this person have been kicked out by his robot owner again?
Clemont's cheeks turned slightly red, and he explained bravely, "It's not like you, who goes out to practice! Work hard to better build the Daoist temple!"
Grant rolled his eyes in his heart:
What did Jili Gulu say? Isn't he just going out to play? And he said it so seriously.
He caught a glimpse of Xiaoyun looking at him with a half-smile, and immediately followed Clemont's words and shouted:
"That's right! It's practice, all for a better future for Pokémon League!"
It also needs Clemont to respond quickly.
"Just right, Grant Hall Master."
Xiaoyun suddenly said, "It's better to choose a different day than to hit the sun. How about we have a battle at Battle Chateau and complete the gym assessment by the way?"
"Ah, now... now?"
Grant panicked instantly.
With so many people watching, wouldn't it be embarrassing if he failed the assessment?
"Hmm? Isn't it convenient?"
Xiaoyun tilted his head. He actually didn't mean anything else. He just saw that Grant's dukedom could help him upgrade, and he could also complete the gym assessment. It was like killing two birds with one stone.
Grant thought Xiaoyun was unhappy, and hurriedly made excuses. "No, no! Isn't it Battle Chateau's rule that we can only fight between people of the same title? Our titles are different, so we can't fight!"
"It doesn't matter. This is a promotion competition. I can challenge for a higher title." Xiaoyun exposed his excuse with one sentence.
"Ah this..."
Grant was completely panicked, and cold sweat fell down his cheeks.
Viola and Clemont were watching the show with their arms folded. Anyway, their assessment was completed, and it was not a big deal to watch the fun.
At this moment, a white glove was suddenly thrown in front of Xiaoyun.
"I will be your opponent!"
Xiaoyun turned around and saw a girl standing not far away.
With loose blond curly hair, delicate earrings on her fair face, and wearing a purple-black college uniform and boots, she looks like a senior who came from an aristocratic school, exuding the arrogance of Ace Trainer.
"My name is Ayaka, and my title is Duke."
"I will protect the dignity of Kalos, the boy who talks nonsense online!"
The person who came was the girl who fought against Alain in the original book. She was traveling nearby and saw Battle Chateau's challenge message. She felt dissatisfied, so she came to the appointment.
"Duke?"
Xiaoyun raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes fell on the brooch on Ayaka's chest. The bead in the center of the brooch was a Key Stone.
It seems that this is Ace Trainer who mastered Mega Evolution. No wonder he managed to reach the Duke rank. It's not surprising at all.
Naturally, he would not miss the challenge sent to him. He immediately picked up the white gloves on the ground and agreed, "Okay."
Grant also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw someone helping him.
Kalos There are still many good people, and this girl can handle them.
Bang! Bang!
The two of them threw Poké Ball at the same time, and dazzling white light exploded on both sides of the arena.
"Go, Absol! Take back the victory that belongs to Kalos!"
"Get ready to fight, Serperior!"
The snow-white hair shines under the light, the gray-blue face is matched with a knife-shaped tail, and the sickle-shaped horn on the forehead is even more cool.
Disaster beast, Absol.
On the other side, an emerald green figure stood proudly, with his head raised high and carrying an innate majesty, and his whole body exuded a light natural aura.
Regal Pokémon, Serperior.
Pokémon on both sides of the field looked at each other, and the air was instantly filled with a tense battle atmosphere.
You're just a Marquis, let's see if I don't beat you until you're all over the place!
"Absol Let's fight quickly and let everyone see that Kalos's trainer is never easy to mess with."
Ayaka took the lead in giving the order, pointing his arm sharply at Serperior: "Night Slash!"
"Abo!"
Absol let out a short low roar, and the figure instantly turned into a snow-white afterimage, with the sickle blade pointing directly at its vitals.
"Serperior, Leaf Blade!"
The instruction of Xiaoyun is almost the same as the action of Absol Synchronize.
Serperior's body tilted slightly, his eyes closely chasing the afterimage, and the tail suddenly glowed with emerald green light, like a sharp blade unsheathed!
Bang!!
The crisp sound of the collision shook the field. Even though Absol had a running assist, Serperior did not move at all.
"Hmph, it looks like you have some strength."
Ayaka evoked a surprised but Defiant smile, and immediately changed his tactics:
"Jump up and use Razor Wind!"
Absol jumped backwards and swung the sickle on his head at the same time. Several sharp wind blades transformed into sickles and weasels, shooting at Serperior.
"Use Leaf Storm!"
Xiaoyun's voice was still calm, and he raised his hand and pressed softly.
Serperior has already been sent out, so what else can you say? Just stud Leaf Storm and that's it.
Serperior swings its long tail, and green energy gathers at the tip of the tail!
The next second, the powerful Leaf Hurricane spurted out, like a rotating green storm!
Boom boom boom!
Razor Wind collided with Leaf Storm, the wind blade was swallowed by the storm, and the blades were scattered and scattered.
"Absol, don't give your opponent time to rest, Sucker Punch from the left, use Dark Pulse!"
Ayaka stared at Absol who was moving flexibly in the storm, and ordered loudly.
"Abo!"
Absol opened his mouth, dark black spiral energy condensed in his mouth, and burst out with corrosive breath!
"Continue, Leaf Storm!"
Serperior's long tail swung again, and the green storm enveloped countless sharp blades and swept the arena instantly!
Boom boom boom!
Immediately afterwards, Dark Pulse was torn apart as soon as it touched the edge of the storm. Absol quickly ducked sideways, and its hair was swept by the blades, leaving several scratches in an instant.
Seeing Leaf Storm's power rising instead of falling, Ayaka suddenly understood:
"Contrary Ability... No wonder you dare to be so domineering Swagger, it turns out you have some strength."
She raised her eyes and looked at Xiaoyun, her eyes a little more solemn, but still a little stubborn. "Kalos people are not that easy to bully!"
"Show your elegance! Absol, Mega Evolution!!"
Ayaka also took off his brooch and shouted loudly.
In an instant, Light of Bond connected her to Absol. The moment the light burst, Absol's form suddenly changed.
The gray sickle on the top of the head became wide and sharp, and a small sharp horn quietly grew on the other side.
The snow-white hair all over the body is getting thicker and thicker, and the hair on the back is fluffy and exploded, like a pair of snow-white wings, adding a bit of elegance and domineering.
Mega Absol!
Ayaka looked at his evolved partner, his eyes full of confidence. "This is Mega Evolution unique to Kalos. It has all-round blessings for Pokémon. It depends on how you block it next!"
"Mega Evolution, then try to see if you can block it."
A trace of fluctuation finally flashed in Xiaoyun's eyes. "Continue to use Leaf Storm!"
"Hiss!"
Serperior's whole body glowed with a deeper green light, and countless leaves were spinning rapidly around it, ready to go!
"Sucker Punch!"
After Ayaka finished speaking, Mega Absol turned into a black stream of light and suddenly flew high into the sky.
Although the wings on its back cannot fly, its jumping height and speed are greatly increased, and it appears above Serperior's head almost instantly.
Bang!!
A crisp collision sound sounded, and Absol's body hit Serperior hard, directly interrupting Leaf Storm's starting move.
"If you want to continue stacking, don't even think about it!"
Ayaka raised the corners of his mouth, showing an expression of victory. "Continue to use Night Slash!"
Mega Absol understood, and flicked his head. The sickle horn on his head was immediately covered with a layer of dark black energy, and it slashed Serperior's neck.
"Dragon Pulse!"
Xiaoyun's reaction is extremely fast. He knows that Leaf Storm cannot be cast instantly, but Dragon Pulse can.
Leaf Storm's blessing to Special Attack just twice in a row is real.
Serperior condensed purple dragon-shaped energy from his mouth and sprayed it towards the sickle horn with majestic momentum.
Boom boom!
The sickle horn of Mega Absol directly smashed Dragon Pulse, and the energy was scattered.
Before it was over, Absol looked down, his head violently swung sideways, and countless wind blades were drawn out from the corners of the sickle.
Razor Wind!
Whoosh!
The wind blades hit Serperior's body densely, leaving many scars on the emerald green scales, and Serperior let out a painful scream.
In the stands, Sanpei's eyes were full of amazement. "This duchess is so strong, she actually suppressed Xiaoyun."
Viola shook his head slightly, with relief in his tone. "Mega Absol, I didn't expect that this kid has such a trump card, and he didn't even show it when he challenged the gym."
Grant touched his chin and looked solemnly. "This girl is really strong. Mr. Inspector, you won't lose, right?"
"What are you talking about? How can Xiaoyun lose?"
Barry stood up suddenly.
This is the man who beat him so hard that he couldn't find any answers. How could he lose in this place?
In the center of the arena, Ayaka's command sounded again:
"Absol, Encore Night Slash!"
Mega Absol's figure flashed, the sickle horn condensed dark black energy again, and struck Serperior at close range.
"Dragon Pulse!"
Xiaoyun still chose to attack, but this time, Mega Absol was faster, the sickle horn directly cut through the dragon-shaped energy, and struck Serperior hard on the flank!
"Hiss~"
Serperior was knocked back and curled up in pain.
"The battle ends here!"
Ayaka was about to give the order to end the battle, but saw Xiaoyun slowly raising the bracelet on his wrist, and the crystal on it was emitting dazzling light.
"That's not possible."
"You have Mega Evolution, let me show you the battle systems in other regions!"
He closed his eyes, and the breath and Serperior around him gradually Synchronize, Z-Ring the light became more intense.
"Z-Move--Jade Shadow Thousand Serpent Strangulation Formation!"
Different from the normal Z-Move, this is exactly what Serperior gets in Tree of Beginning!
"Hiss...!"
In an instant, Serperior let out a low neighing sound.
This sound seemed to awaken the power of nature, and the natural breath around it turned into an emerald green halo visible to the naked eye.
Hiss!
In the halo, countless emerald green phantom snake shadows are looming, each snake shadow carries a majesty similar to Serperior.
As soon as these phantom snakes appeared, they rushed towards Mega Absol like a tide, forming an airtight green net in an instant, trapping it tightly in the center.
"Abo!"
Mega Absol struggled desperately, and the sickle horn kept slashing at the phantoms, but those snake shadows would immediately reorganize after being broken, and instead they became tighter and tighter.
The phantom snake shadow attacked from all directions, and Absol's physical strength was rapidly depleted every time Tackle. His snow-white hair was full of scars, and Mega Evolution's light began to dim.
"Stop it!"
Ayaka looked at his friend who was in dire straits, his heart seemed to be grabbed, he raised his hand and said with a trembling voice:
"I... give up!"
The moment the voice fell, the green phantom snake shadow suddenly dissipated, Mega Absol fell to the ground without any force, and Mega Evolution's form also faded away, returning to its original appearance.
The victory has been decided!
Ayaka immediately rushed onto the field and held Absol in his arms. "Thank you for your hard work, Absol."
"The winner of this duel is, Lord Xiaoyun, the Marquis!"
"Due to achieving enough winning streaks in the Marquis position, Xiaoyun Marquis will be officially promoted to Duke!"
After the maid made the announcement, the Karen butler came forward with a bright red ducal cloak and thoughtfully helped him put it on his back.
It's cold, put on some clothes.
Looking at the actions of Karen butler, Xiaoyun felt inexplicably wanting to ascend the throne on the spot.
At this time, there was a lot of discussion on the viewing platform.
"It's the Duke, Battle Chateau It's been a long time since there was a new Duke trainer!"
"This promotion is too fast. Last week I saw that he was a baron."
"Is that last one Z-Move over Alola? It looks like it's not inferior to Mega Evolution at all!"
Listening to the voices around that Z-Move is not inferior to Mega Evolution, the owner of Z-Move, Barry, keeps staring at the brooch of Ayaka.
None of them understand anything. Z-Move That thing can only be used once, and you have to grab it with both hands!
He made up his mind that he had to build this thing Mega Evolution, but then he thought again.
Um, so what, he doesn't seem to have a Pokémon that can Mega Evolution.
