On the field, Ash took back Torterra and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work, Torterra. You did a good job. It was my command mistake."
Then, he raised his head, his eyes still firm. Another Poké Ball was thrown:
"Next, it's you who decides!"
Bang!
The orange-brown figure appears with the roar of steam!
The five fiery red depressions on the turtle shell are like lava holes, and the small holes at the top are spewing white steam.
Torkoal, known as little Groudon!
"Woo!!!"
After appearing on the stage, Torkoal blew out Growl like a train whistle, and Spit Up had two puffs of thick smoke in his nostrils! Full of momentum!
The same turtle, Torkoal has a brilliant record in the hands of Ash, which is not something that some cannon fodder turtle can do.
Weavile saw Torkoal and Swagger tempered his attitude a little.
Fire-type, which makes it have to be cautious.
"Torkoal, Heat Wave!"
"Woo!"
Torkoal took a deep breath, the crater on his back glowed red, and a fiery storm swept across the entire arena!
Heat Wave makes Weavile breathless, and the whole Pokémon feels uncomfortable.
On the field, Alain frowned. "Weavile, Endure, use Night Slash!"
Weavile endured the discomfort, and his figure turned into a black line, moving rapidly around the arena, trying to approach Torkoal from the side.
"Torkoal, Iron Defense!"
Torkoal is calm, Withdraw, the shell has a metallic luster and the hardness is greatly improved.
Bang!
Weavile's Night Slash hit the turtle shell, splashing a bunch of Ember, but Torkoal didn't move at all.
Weavile did not believe in evil and kept slashing. The blade collided with the turtle shell and produced bursts of Ember. But Torkoal inside the turtle shell was not moved at all.
Why is this tortoise shell so hard? The knife is almost ready to be cut with a curled edge!
"Use Dark Pulse!" Alain changes tactics.
Weavile distanced himself, opened his mouth Spit Up and waved dark purple energy.
Ash has been waiting for this moment:
"Torkoal, use Burn Up!"
"Woo!!"
Torkoal poked its head out of the shell, and the crater on its back instantly became as red and hot as lava! It opened its mouth suddenly!
Boom!!!!
A blazing flame column with a diameter of more than two meters spurted out. The flame was incandescent. Dark Pulse was evaporated the moment it came into contact with the flame. The flame column continued unabated and rushed straight towards Weavile!
"Weavile! Get out of the way!" Alain shouted.
But it's too late.
Weavile wanted to dodge, but the high temperature brought by Heat Wave had affected its speed. As soon as it took a step, the flame pillar completely engulfed it!
"Weavile!" Alain exclaimed.
"Sneasel..."
After the flames dissipated, Weavile was lying on the ground covered in charred black, with circles in his eyes.
The referee shouted, "Sneasel has lost the ability to fight! Torkoal wins!"
At the same time, Alain has lost three Pokémon, and the game has entered halftime!
Ash ran to Torkoal and hugged it. "Well done! Torkoal!"
"Ugh--!"
In Torkoal's excitement, several streams of thick smoke from his nostrils and back shell Spit Up directly blackened Ash's face.
"Cough cough cough..."
Ash coughed and laughed at the same time, his chocolate face revealing a mouth of white teeth.
"Ash played well! He was actually ahead of that Alain."
Barry was holding a bucket of popcorn, chewing it deliciously, and didn't forget to leave a comment.
"Let me tell you, this tastes really good. Hey! Xiaoyun Why did you steal mine again!"
Xiaoyun calmly stuffed the popcorn he just caught into his mouth. "Can the trainer's thing be called stealing? This is called sharing."
"Then why didn't you share it with me just now and asked me to buy it myself?"
Barry protectively held the popcorn bucket in his arms, his eyes full of doubts.
Dawn did not respond, and returned his attention to the competition. "Ash did perform well, but Alain still has three Pokémon that are useless, including Charizard, which is his trump card."
In previous games, Charizard almost swept all the way, defeating most opponents without even using Mega Evolution.
Although Alain and Pokémon are also good, they are still inferior to Charizard.
Clemont Analytic said, "But he must have a plan, let's just watch."
"That's right, and there's Ash and Greninja."
Barry is convinced that Greninja is Water-type, Charizard who specializes in Alain.
This doesn't mean you can hold a handful of stuffing in your hand.
Xiaoyun next to him took another handful of popcorn while Barry was not paying attention. By the time Barry reacted, Xiaoyun had almost eaten it.
"Xiaoyun you guy!"
Soon, the intermission ended.
Alain's expression was still calm, but there was a hint of solemnity in his eyes. The disadvantage in the first half was slightly beyond his expectation.
I didn't expect that Ash besides Greninja and other Pokémon are so powerful.
Well... except Torterra.
"Unfezant, prepare to fight!"
A white light flashed, and a male Unfezant appeared on the field.
It has bright feathers, and the crest on its head stands high. As soon as it appears, it flutters its wings, hovers in the air, and makes a chirp like Taunt.
Ash threw out Poké Ball without hesitation. "Noivern, the decision is yours!"
Noivern fluttered its wings and rose into the air, its huge ears trembling slightly.
Two Flying-type Pokémon faced off in the air, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
"Unfezant, Hurricane!"
Alain took the lead in commanding.
Unfezant Dual Wingbeat vibrated violently, and the violent airflow instantly formed Twister, sweeping towards Noivern!
"Noivern, take off and avoid it!" Ash shouted.
Noivern Dual Wingbeat shook up and shot straight into the sky, avoiding the core area of Hurricane.
"Pursuit, Brave Bird!"
Alain's offensive is overwhelming.
Unfezant's whole body is wrapped in blue energy, turning into a stream of light and chasing Noivern!
Ash grinned. "This is the move we've been waiting for! Noivern, Acrobatics!"
Just when Brave Bird was about to hit, Noivern suddenly made a sharp turn at almost a right angle! Such a thrilling action made the whole audience burst into uproar!
Unfezant couldn't stop its momentum and rushed straight over. Then it discovered that Noivern had circled behind it at some point!
"How could this happen?!" Alain's pupils shrank.
Ash clenched his fist. "Now, Boomburst!"
Noivern Stand still, the harsh sound waves spread from your ears!
Unfezant was hit head-on by the sound wave, and his movements suddenly stagnated, with a painful expression on his face.
"Dragon Pulse, end it!"
Noivern opened his mouth Spit Up purple Dragon-type energy wave, the energy wave turned into a purple dragon in the air, and rushed towards the still trembling Unfezant with open teeth and claws!
"Unfezant, get out of the way!" Alain shouted.
But Unfezant was so stunned by Boomburst that his reaction was half a beat too slow and he was hit on the spot.
Bang--!
Unfezant fell like a kite with a broken string, making a shallow crater on the field, with circles in his eyes.
The referee stepped forward to check and then raised the flag. "Unfezant has lost the ability to fight! Noivern wins!"
"Well done Noivern!" Ash pumped his fist excitedly.
Noivern circled in the air and shouted proudly.
Alain took back Unfezant, his face still showed no expression, but he threw out the next Poké Ball a little faster:
"Come out, Metagross."
A white light flashed, and a huge Steel-type Pokémon appeared on the field.
The blue metal body stands firmly on four thick legs, and the red eyes shine with rationality.
Quasi-god, Metagross!
"Another quasi-god, this Alain's lineup is pretty good."
Barry said sourly, he has not been able to get along with many quasi-gods for so long since his debut.
Zoey narrowed his eyes. "This Metagross is not weak."
"Noivern, strike first, Boomburst!" Ash tried to seize the opportunity.
The harsh sound wave swept through again! But this time.
"Light Screen." Alain said lightly.
Metagross's four arms were crossed, and a transparent Barrier instantly unfolded! The sound wave hit Light Screen, and its power was greatly weakened.
"Mellon."(That's it?)
Metagross snorted coldly.
"Sound wave!" (Come again! Let's see if I don't break your iron knot!)
Noivern gathers strength again, and a terrifying sonic explosion occurs!
"Flash Cannon." Alain continued to order.
Metagross's metal cross lit up with a dazzling light, and a blazing beam of light shot through the air!
Boom boom boom!
Flash Cannon blasted Boomburst, keep moving forward!
"Get away!" Ash shouted.
Noivern turned sideways to the extreme, and the beam of light passed by the wings, but it still left a scorch mark!
"Continuously use Flash Cannon." Alain's voice was terrifyingly calm.
"Mellon...!"
Metagross is like a moving fort, with beams of light chasing Noivern and bombarding it indiscriminately!
Noivern dodged left and right in the air, showing amazing maneuverability, but the beam was too dense, and it was finally hit in the side by a beam!
"Sonic!"
Noivern screamed in pain, fell from the air, and slid on the ground for more than ten meters before stopping.
After checking, the referee announced, "Noivern has lost the ability to fight! Metagross wins!"
Ash retracted Noivern and also sold Poké Ball one after another.
"Donphan, the decision is yours!"
A red light flashed, and a round Pokémon appeared on the field.
The skin is gray, the back is covered with a hard carapace, and the tusks are as sharp as drills.
"Dun..."
Donphan looked at Metagross and checked his eyes. This iron lump is difficult to deal with.
