The referee raised the flag and announced loudly, "Absol has lost the ability to fight! The winner is the Diantha champion!"
Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
The young man looked at the fallen Absol with disbelief on his face. "It only took one blow..."
Diantha showed a faint smile on his face:
"I agree, your Absol has great potential."
The implication is, if you're not good enough, you still have to practice.
Before the cheers in the audience subsided, Dawn exclaimed, "This Gardevoir is so powerful. That Absol is like a child in front of it."
Professor Sycamore next to him shook his head slightly and said in a low voice, "No, this is not possible, the power of this Gardevoir has not been fully released yet."
Not to mention the observation power, I haven't even turned on Mega Evolution. Isn't this trip in vain?
At this time, Diantha in the field seemed to have heard the doctor's voice, or was still not satisfied with the brief battle just now. She turned slightly sideways, tilted her head towards the host who stepped forward, and whispered a few words at a volume that only the two of them could hear clearly.
The host's eyes lit up and he stretched out his hand to signal to the lighting engineer. "Everyone in the audience! Let me tell you some good news - Ms. Diantha will select an extra lucky audience member today to continue this exciting showdown!"
"Now, let's see who will be the person favored by the God of Luck!"
"Isn't it?! Why do you want to add an extra scene without permission? You have to shoot a commercial in the afternoon, and the schedule is already full!"
Backstage, Diantha's manager suddenly jumped up from his chair and winked at Diantha anxiously.
You stinky girl are going to die!
Huh, take care of me.
Diantha didn't seem to see it, but turned around gracefully, and his eyes slowly swept across the boiling audience.
Thumb! Thumb! Thunk!
The spotlights on the top of the venue began to rotate rapidly, and the beams of light swept around the audience seats, triggering waves of screams.
Professor Sycamore prayed silently in his heart. "Stop at Xiaoyun, stop at Xiaoyun!"
He knew that his junior brother was an experienced trainer and could definitely satisfy his ideas.
The light beam swayed and was actually fixed on Xiaoyun!
Professor Sycamore was about to grin, and even raised his hands to applaud, when the beam of light suddenly moved to the side and fell on Dawn next to Xiaoyun.
"Hey! That blue-haired lady, congratulations on becoming the lucky winner of this lottery!"
The host waved the microphone excitedly and pointed in the direction of Dawn.
Dawn was stunned and pointed at himself.
"Ah? Is it me?"
"That's right, it's you!" The host smiled and made an inviting gesture.
Then, Dawn walked onto the stage in a daze, and the host immediately handed the microphone to her and asked with a smile:
"Miss, are you a trainer? Are you excited to face off against the champion Diantha? What excitement do you want to share with everyone?"
Dawn was a little confused when asked, "Well, I am a trainer, right?"
I still have to share my feelings, but I feel nothing.
She opened her mouth and thought for a long time before speaking.
"I'll try my best!"
"Haha, it seems that the young lady is so excited that she can't even speak!"
The host smoothed things over, raised his hand and announced loudly, "The game - starts now!"
Diantha looked at Dawn's embarrassed look, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he said softly:
"She is a cute little girl, Gardevoir. Please be gentler during the competition later."
"Shanai."
Gardevoir nodded slightly, a hint of gentleness flashed in his emerald eyes.
Professor Sycamore hurriedly approached Xiaoyun: "How strong are Xiaoyun and Dawn?"
He was thinking in his mind that if he couldn't even force Dawn out of Gardevoir's Mega Evolution, then he would have to wait until the end of the game to shamelessly ask Diantha to borrow the opponent's Mega Stone.
Xiaoyun held his chin, looked at Dawn on the stage, and said slowly:
"The strength is above the standard."
After hearing Xiaoyun's ambiguous words, Professor Sycamore looked at the harmless blue-haired girl in the stands.
Forget it, it would be safer to go to the backstage to communicate with Diantha later.
"Gengar, come out to fight!"
"Kou Jie."
Gengar appeared in the field instantly. It spun in the air, stuck out its long tongue, and made a Scary Face towards Gardevoir.
"Oh~ It's Gengar. She's chubby and quite cute."
Diantha chuckled, her tone a little teasing, but her eyes became serious.
The aura exuding from this Gengar is not weak, it is definitely not an ordinary Pokémon.
At least it's better than Absol just now.
"Gengar, strike first to gain the upper hand, use Shadow Ball!"
Dawn has entered combat mode and is the first to launch an attack.
"Kou Jie!"
Gengar immediately restrained Play Rough's expression, clasped his hands together, and the black Energy Ball shot out quickly from his palms.
"Shanai."
Gardevoir's whole body glowed with lavender light, and his figure disappeared instantly.
Shadow Ball hit the ground and exploded into a cloud of black smoke.
Before Gengar could react, Gardevoir appeared behind it, its slender palm condensed white light, and slapped Gengar on the back.
Psybeam!
"Kou Jie!"
Gengar's reaction was extremely fast. At the moment when the light was about to hit, its body suddenly became transparent, allowing Gardevoir's attack to pass directly through and land in the air.
"Huh? Did you miss?"
Diantha raised his eyebrows, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. "No, it's more like passing through. Is it Gengar's special ability?"
Dawn seized the opportunity and immediately ordered:
"Gengar, use Night Shade now!"
Dark energy surged around Gengar, turning into countless slender tentacles, which densely wrapped around Gardevoir, blocking its escape route.
Until then, Diantha slowly gave the order, "Gardevoir, use Psychic!"
Gardevoir jumped lightly, and his body drew a beautiful arc in the air.
At the same time, he opened his hands, and the lavender Confusion was like the materialized Karate Chop, shattering the shadow tentacles one by one.
"What a meticulous operation."
Dawn sincerely admired that only other trainers Champion Level could use Confusion so skillfully and accurately.
Diantha didn't give Dawn much time to express his feelings and ordered again, "Gardevoir, take advantage of Pursuit and continue to use Psychic!"
"Shauna!!"
The light in Gardevoir's eyes swelled, and the lavender Confusion was like an invisible giant hand, suddenly grabbing at Gengar.
Gengar's body was instantly lifted into the air uncontrollably. Even Intangibility couldn't do it and was thrown away like a doll on a string.
"Gengar, use Night Shade to break free!"
Dawn's voice suddenly rose in pitch.
"Kou Jie!"
Gengar's body erupted with terrifying black shadows, and black energy surged instantly.
Not only did he break free from the shackles of Psychic, the black shadow also transformed into countless sharp tentacles and launched a counterattack towards Gardevoir.
"Gardevoir, Dazzling Gleam!
A brilliant colorful light exploded in the center of the venue, instantly bathing people in a burst of white light.
"So strong..."
A glimmer of light flashed in Dawn's eyes, and she suddenly stretched out the Key Stone hanging on her bracelet, her voice extremely firm.
"Gengar, show them our true power, Mega Evolution!
"Kou Jie!"
The light Gengar let out a loud roar, and the Evolution Stone on its body suddenly lit up, and the dazzling light instantly enveloped it.
In the light, Gengar's body shape changed: a vertical eye formed in the middle of his forehead, and sharp barbs appeared on his original tail.
The lower part of the body turns purple-red, as if sinking into shadow.
Mega Gengar, appears!
A glimmer of approval flashed in Diantha's eyes, and she nodded gently. "Not bad, I actually have Mega Evolution's trump card. I'm looking down on you, sister."
Then, she raised her hand and held the necklace around her neck. It was Mega Stone from Gardevoir.
"Respond my heart, Gardevoir, Mega Evolution!"
As Diantha's voice fell, Gardevoir also emitted a bright light, which was more dazzling than Gengar's.
The light dissipated, and Gardevoir's chest turned into two red horns, her arms became purer, and the skirt underneath became more fluffy and layered.
The overall shape is closer to Rococo-style women's clothing, and the exaggerated skirt is its most distinctive feature.
Professor Sycamore looked at this scene and couldn't help but exclaim, "I didn't expect Dawn to be able to do such a thing as Mega Evolution. It's really amazing."
She looks like the girl next door, but she is surprisingly good at fighting.
Xiaoyun is very calm.
He said it must be above the standard.
"Gengar, use Confuse Ray!"
Dawn caught the momentum behind Mega Evolution and immediately launched an attack.
"Kou Jie!"
Gengar's eyes flashed red, and countless colorful rays of light shot out from its body, like a chaotic rain of light, surrounding Mega Gardevoir.
"It's not that easy to throw Gardevoir into chaos."
A smile appeared on Diantha's lips, obviously showing interest in Dawn.
"Gardevoir, use Misty Terrain!"
Gardevoir gently raised his hands, and a layer of pink mist instantly rose from the ground, covering the venue.
Immunity abnormality, Confuse Ray is invalid!
"Then use Moonblast!"
Mega Gardevoir raised his hands high, silver-white energy gathered in his palms, and hit Mega Gengar like a Minimize full moon.
"Phantom Force!"
Dawn was already prepared and shouted immediately.
"Kou Jie."
Mega Gengar instantly dived into the shadow on the ground and easily avoided Moonblast's attack.
The next second, it rushed out from the shadow under Mega Gardevoir's feet, its body wrapped in rich black energy, and crashed into the opponent unprepared.
"I caught you, Psychic!"
Diantha's voice is calm but with absolute confidence.
Mega Gardevoir didn't wait for Gengar to get closer, but the lavender Confusion had already firmly bound it.
Gengar tried to use Intangibility to escape, but Gardevoir's Confusion made it unable to move, and Intangibility was completely unusable.
And if Diantha is the result, crack the difficult Intangibility first!
"The final blow, Psyshock!"
Diantha's voice fell, and Mega Gardevoir's hands condensed Confusion, which was more powerful than before, and the purple light almost dyed the entire venue.
Bang!
Confusion hit Gengar hard. For the already fragile Gengar, this blow will definitely cause serious damage!
Sure enough, Gengar was knocked out of Mega Evolution on the spot and lost his fighting ability.
"Champion, you are really strong."
Dawn sighed lightly, she walked to Gengar and gently took it back to Poké Ball.
A being on the same level as Mr. Wallace is definitely not something I can defeat now.
It seems that my practice is far from enough.
The referee announced loudly, "Gengar has lost the ability to fight, Gardevoir wins! In this game, Miss Diantha wins!"
Before leaving, Dawn bowed politely and said, "Thank you, Miss Diantha, for your advice!"
Diantha had a good impression of this polite little sister. He walked up to Dawn and smiled slightly:
"You played well, little sister. Your Gengar is very powerful and your tactics are very smart. Keep up the good work and you will have a promising future."
Getting her to use Mega Evolution is not something that ordinary people can do.
On the high platform, Professor Sycamore quickly recorded the data he just observed, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise:
"Great, the data of Gardevoir and Gengar have been collected. This trip is finally here!"
Afterwards, the two returned to their residence and wandered around the town casually, without any chance encounters with the champion.
Maybe, he was caught and sent back to make the announcement.
Geosenge Town.
It is famous for its rare mineral rocks.
The most common ones are various types of Evolution Stone, or Smooth Rock, various colored fragments of gems, etc.
Because of the rich products, there are also special rock stores on both sides of the street. You can see many freshly unearthed rare rocks on the display windows. Many trainers passing by will also come here to buy the necessary supplies.
"Let's go in and take a look, and buy some stones on the way!"
The two people who were wandering around Geosenge Town also walked into a rock specialty store.
If Doublade of Dawn evolves into Aegislash, it happens to require Dusk Stone. Just take a look and see if they are sold here.
"Hey, isn't there Dusk Stone?"
After searching around and not seeing the target, Dawn sighed, thinking he could buy it directly.
"Sorry customer, Dusk Stone has always been in short supply and is rarely in stock. This needs to be reserved one week in advance."
The clerk came over quickly and said apologetically.
After hearing the news, the two could only focus on various types of gems.
This kind of gem can increase the power of corresponding attribute moves when carried, but due to the restriction that it can only be used once, most trainers only use them as auxiliary props for daily training.
There are also some people who are attracted by the appearance of gemstones, and there are also a lot of people who buy them and ask craftsmen to make them into jewelry for wear.
While the two were still selecting in the store, there was a sudden thump at the door.
Looking through the sound, a girl in sportswear was holding the door frame and gasping for air, her chest rising and falling, and she shouted to the front desk:
"Boss, are there any Mega Stone from Lucario here? Give me one!!"
Upon hearing this, the two of them, including the clerk, turned to look at the door in surprise.
The girl was wearing roller skates and a full set of Protector on her head. Only her dazzling golden hair was not covered.
Her long hair was tied high into a ponytail on top of her head, and two small ponytails curved like long eyebrows were raised on both sides of her forehead, swaying gently as she breathed.
Next to her was a Lucario with his hands on his hips, also breathing heavily.
