"Roar!!"
Light flashed, and a sturdy Ursaring with a yellow circle pattern on its chest appeared on the field.
As soon as it appears on the stage, it will habitually look up to the sky and roar, ready to show its power.
Then... the roar suddenly choked in the middle.
Because of its small eyes, it could clearly see the two guys opposite.
On the left is a silver Metagross that exudes a terrifying metallic cold light and can be hammered into bear biscuits at a glance.
On the right is Electivire, which is crackling all over, as if it could be electrocuted into roasted bear paws at any time.
Seeing this, Ursaring slowly put down the raised bear paw, and the unfinished roar was swallowed back by the bear, turning into a weak sound with a trembling tail:
"Woo~"
It has a bad temper, but it's not stupid!
Neither of the two people on the opposite side looks like it can afford to mess with them!
How to fight this? Use the ring on the chest to top it?
Ursaring glanced at his trainer cautiously, silently took half a step back, and protected everyone in front of him.
Kentaro also felt the invisible pressure. But the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.
He could only bite the bullet and make eye contact with Ursaring:
"Endure! Let's... play it by ear!"
Ursaring understood the trainer's eyes, but he was actually broken inside.
Kentaro's heart: Ursaring, you have to believe in yourself! You were once the strongest Ursaring who defeated three Bidoofs with one claw!
Ursaring's heart: Trainer, you have to recognize the reality! That silver guy opposite can slap thirty of them away without any trouble!
The referee did not care about Pokémon's mental activities and announced loudly:
"The game begins!"
Almost as soon as the referee finished speaking, Volkner moved. Without any hesitation, he pointed directly at Steven's Metagross.
Obviously, in his heart, the only real opponent is the former champion!
"Electivire, Thunder!"
"Electric drink!!!"
Electivire looked up to the sky and roared, raised his fists high, and the violent electricity shot straight into the sky!
In an instant, dark clouds gathered over the battlefield, and countless thick thunderbolts poured down like heavy rain!
A large-scale Beat Up attack covering the whole field! This is not considering saving energy, but using the strongest offensive to preemptively strike!
"Light Screen."
Facing this violent Bolt Strike, Steven just calmly uttered two words.
"Mellon!"
Metagross let out a low roar, and a translucent energy wall instantly spread out in front of his huge body.
Boom boom boom boom--!!!
The violent thunder bombarded Light Screen crazily, exploding countless dazzling electric Ember, and the entire venue was reflected in a golden color!
Light Screen fluctuates violently, causing ripples, but it always blocks the thunder and lightning!
"Hiss!" A gasp suddenly sounded from the audience.
"Use your ultimate move right at the beginning, Volkner is too fierce!"
Flint was speechless in the stands.
Lucian calm Analytic: "A very wise choice. Facing an opponent like Steven, conventional tactics are of little significance. We must use the strongest offensive to break the rhythm."
On the field, Volkner's eyes were solemn.
"As expected of a champion, his defense is watertight."
He wasn't surprised, it would be strange if the champion was defeated so easily.
The real killing move begins now!
"Charge."
Electivire fists collided, the violent thunder and lightning around him did not disperse, but was absorbed back into the body!
The surface of its body began to dance with Splash and even more dazzling Spark, its momentum rising steadily!
Charge, greatly increases the power of the next move Electric-type!
As a large amount of electricity enters the body, Electivire's Motor Drive Ability is also completely activated!
Its speed increased visibly to the naked eye, and the muscles in its limbs were stretched, full of explosive power!
"Come again! Use Thunder Punch!"
Following Volkner's command, Electivire, which absorbed the huge amount of electric energy, turned into a real golden Flash!
Phew! Phew!
Its figure drew a Z-shaped line on the field, and it was so fast that it left an afterimage in the air, approaching Metagross in an instant! Its right fist condensed the violent thunder compressed to the extreme, and punched out!
Bang--click!
The enhanced power of Thunder Punch was astonishing, and Light Screen was shattered in response! The power of the punch did not decrease, and Sturdy actually hit Metagross's silver body!
Bang! A dull and loud sound like a giant hammer hitting steel spread across the entire venue! Metagross's huge body was hit by this punch and slid back several meters!
Volkner's offensive is not over yet! You must attack continuously without giving the opponent a chance to breathe!
"Thunder!"
The two tails behind Electivire plunged into the ground. The violent electricity was introduced into the earth through the tails, and then suddenly erupted from the ground under Metagross's feet!
Boom boom boom boom!!!
Dense and more violent thunder rose from the ground to the sky!
Thunder at close range, almost zero distance! The dazzling Spark swallowed Metagross completely in an instant!
"I'm going!"
Flint gasped in the stands:
"Volkner, this guy is too ruthless! After this set of combos, if he had been replaced by Aaron, he would have been defeated long ago."
"It's a pity that his opponent is Steven."
Lucian looked at the still calm blue figure in the field. "The reason why champions are champions is because they always have a way to reverse the situation."
On the field, electricity was raging and smoke and dust filled the air.
Volkner stared closely at the center of the smoke, breathing slightly quickly. He knew that this set of combos was amazingly powerful, but his opponent was the champion, and he did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
On the other side, Kentaro and Ursaring had completely shrunk to the corner of the field, hugging each other and shivering.
Ursaring: It's so scary here. That electric tiger is so fierce. I want to go home!
Kentaro: Is this the strength of Sinnoh, the strongest Gym Leader? Even the champion dares to fight like this? What kind of life do the trainers over there at Sinnoh usually live!
On the field, Electivire was panting slightly, with tiny electric waves Ember jumping around on his body, but the corners of his mouth were raised.
Because on the opposite side, after the smoke and dust dissipated, Metagross's body showed signs of burnt black marks in many places, and some were even slightly deformed.
Anyone could see that it was seriously injured.
"So, so strong..."
Dawn covered his mouth, his eyes full of shock:
"The owner of Volkner actually forced Mr. Steven's Metagross to this point..."
Clemont, who is also a member of the Electric Gym, even admired him a bit. "Volkner Gym Leader's use of Electric-type's energy has reached its peak."
"Charge strengthens, Ability speeds up, Thunder Punch breaks the shield, Thunder explodes at zero distance, all linked together, Sinnoh is indeed the strongest Gym Leader."
Steven looked at his partner and sighed softly, "As expected of Volkner, the master of the hall, he is indeed amazing."
These words come from the bottom of my heart. Such a Skill Link, even his Metagross is seriously injured.
Volkner's tactical execution and Electivire's attack power both exceeded his expectations."
"Mr. Steven is overly praised. The game is far from over."
Volkner responded, not feeling relaxed at all.
Because he knew very well that although the combo just now was effective, it was probably not enough to defeat the opponent.
Sure enough, Steven's next words changed the atmosphere of the whole room again.
"It seems that we have to be more serious."
Steven raised his hand and gently stroked the exquisite silver brooch on his collar with his slender fingers.
"Metagross, Mega Evolution!"
The colorful light chains are connected together! Instead, Mega Metagross is rising in momentum!
"Here it comes! Mr. Steven's trump card, Mega Metagross!" The audience roared.
"Is this what you are prepared to do with all your strength..."
Volkner's mood is a bit complicated.
On the one hand, he alone forced the champion to do his best, which in itself is a kind of recognition.
But on the other hand, facing Metagross after Mega Evolution, the pressure that hit him made him understand that the next battle would be even more difficult.
How to fight this?!
"Metagross, Meteor Mash!"
Steven didn't give Volkner much time to think and launched the attack directly!
"Mellon!!"
The four metal arms of Mega Metagross closed at the same time and blasted forward like a rocket!
"Electivire, use Thunder Punch to resist!" Volkner ordered hurriedly.
Electivire wrapped his fists around the thunder and roared towards the comet!
The speed bonus brought by Motor Drive makes it as fast as Flash, and the lightning on both fists almost condenses into substance!
Boom--!!!
The moment the fists collided, a deafening loud noise broke out!
Click! Click!
The ground beneath Electivire was shattered inch by inch. It tried its best, but was still pushed backwards by the terrifying power of Mega Metagross!
It felt like its arms were about to be shattered by the huge force!
"Electivire, keep the distance!" Volkner knew that he couldn't fight hard and had to take advantage of his speed.
Electivire's figure flashed, and with the ultra-high speed brought by Motor Drive, it turned into a line of Spark and galloped sideways, trying to distance itself from Mega Metagross.
However...
"Metagross, follow up."
Steven's calm voice sounded.
The huge body of Mega Metagross activated instantly with a flexibility and speed that was completely inconsistent with its size. The four metal arms sprayed out air waves like propellers, biting tightly behind Electivire!
Not only is the distance between the two not widening, it is actually shortening!
"What??"
Volkner was surprised. He knew that Mega Metagross was not slow, but he didn't expect to be able to keep up with Electivire who had enhanced speed!
Is this how comprehensive champion Pokémon is?
Not only is its attack and defense powerful, but its speed is also so amazing. It really has no shortcomings at all.
Seeing that he couldn't get away, Volkner looked hard and stopped running away!
"Electivire, Thunder with all your strength!"
"Electric drink!!"
Electivire stopped instantly, and its two tails plunged into the ground again! It looked up to the sky and roared, causing thunder from the anime sky!
But this time, the target of the thunder is not the opponent, but itself!
Boom boom boom boom!!!
The violent thunder and lightning once again swallowed up Electivire and Mega Metagross who were following closely behind!
Electivire With Motor Drive Ability, it is immune to lightning damage, and its speed is even increased again.
But Mega Metagross, Volkner stared closely at the center of Spark.
Then, he saw that in front of Mega Metagross, a translucent Barrier was propped up at some point! That was Barrier composed of Psychic type force!
It's Psychic!
Volkner's heart sank.
Only then did he remember that in addition to powerful physical attacks, Metagross also had unparalleled Psychic type power!
Steven's eyes narrowed slightly, and he raised his right hand slightly. "Metagross, Zen Headbutt."
"Mellon!!"
The spirit Barrier in front of Metagross did not dissipate, but condensed into a highly concentrated, constantly rotating Psychic type force drill in front!
Then Metagross held the Psychic type force drill bit, and charged towards Electivire like a battering ram!
Electivire wanted to hide, but the blow just now consumed too much of its physical strength. The speed bonus brought by Motor Drive was also weakened due to the decrease in physical strength.
And Metagross's attack is too fast! You can't dodge it!
It could only barely raise its arms, but concentrated its last strength into its fists.
Thunder Punch, attack!
This is its last stubbornness!
Boom bang--!!!
