Pokémon Heart Journey

Chapter 304: The Finalists (3)

The yellow sand rolled under the scorching sun, and when the last grain of sand fell to the ground, the two trainers raised their right arms at the same time.

"Go Blastoise, Mega Evolve!"

"Let's do it too, Garchomp, Mega Evolution!"

Blastoise landed with a thud and began to evolve. Three heavy cannons protruded from its carapace. The cold barrels reflected the sunlight, like three miniature artillery batteries.

At the same time, Tyrannosaurus raised its head and roared, the Mega Stone embedded in the center of its pectoral fin, scarlet energy veins flowed along the white sickle blade, and the sand collapsed silently under its feet.

The rainbow light bridges of the Key Stone and Mega Stone lit up almost simultaneously, and two beams of light pierced through the sky and earth.

The light dissipates——

Mega Blastoise's carapace is thicker, its main gun's caliber is larger, and two new high-speed water cannons are added on both sides, with azure water rings surrounding the muzzles; Mega Garchomp has completely transformed into a killing machine, its pectoral fins extend into double blades, its tail blades are hooked like anchors, and its golden vertical pupils are shrunk into needles.

"Water cannons!"

"Dragon God dives!"

Three heavy artillery pieces roared simultaneously, high-pressure water jets tearing through the air at three times the speed of sound. Sand was instantly vaporized wherever the projectiles passed. Mega Garchomp's dive trajectory rose to a ninety-degree angle, its twin blades swirling with purple-black dragon energy, like a meteor hurtling backwards.

The water cannon and the dive collided in mid-air, causing a circular shock wave.

The ultra-high-pressure water stream sliced ​​across the dragon's surface, creating scattered rain curtains that burned countless tiny holes into the sand. Mega Blastoise slid back half a meter due to the recoil, while Mega Garchomp used the recoil to flip over and leap twenty meters into the air.

Yu Longyuan clenched his five fingers and said, "Sandstorm!"

The remaining sand, drawn by dragon energy, condensed into spinning blades of sand around Mega Garchomp. Its dive angle suddenly changed, and the sand blades swung out first, like spinning sickles blocking Blastoise's escape route.

Xiao Mao's eyes were calm: "Spin at high speed!"

Mega Blastoise's limbs and cannon retracted into its shell, transforming it into a blue spinning top. Sand blades struck its shell, sparks flying, but were deflected. The centrifugal force of the rotation spun the sand into a circular dust curtain, instantly obliterating the view.

Yu Longyuan immediately switched commands: "Chop the tiles!"

In the dust, Mega Garchomp's two blades crossed, a white light of combat solidifying into a solid form as it plummeted down from the sky. Its spinning shell was forcibly stopped, the blades slashing two intersecting white streaks across its surface, but failing to penetrate the defense. The recoil numbed Garchomp's mouth, and his body froze briefly.

Xiao Mao seized this half second: "Water Waves!"

The muzzle of the gun protruded from the crack in its carapace, and a compressed water bullet was fired close to the ground, exploding into a hemispherical water prison beneath the Land Shark's feet. The water prison's surface tension was extremely high, temporarily imprisoning the shark's body, and its tail blade swung, but it was unable to break free.

"Freeze punch!"

Mega Blastoise's right fist condensed into an icy blue halo, and he lunged forward. Before the icy fist could reach him, the chill caused icy spikes to form on the surface of the water prison. Garchomp's pupils constricted, and the twin blades of his pectoral fins forcibly broke free from the restraints. He rolled sideways, and the icy fist brushed past his dorsal fin, carrying away a fragment of ice crystal.

Yu Longyuan took advantage of the situation and shouted, "Bite it to pieces!"

The upside-down Garchomp suddenly turned around, its teeth entwined with dark, dark energy, and bit down on the barrel of Blastoise's left arm. The metal barrel creaked and twisted under the influence of the dark energy, and the blue light at the muzzle became chaotic, threatening to explode at any moment.

Xiao Mao's expression remained unchanged: "Shrink the shell, and implode the water cannon."

The water pressure inside the barrel instantly reversed, causing the bitten barrel to explode. High-pressure water rushed out from the inside, forcing the shark's teeth apart. The impact of the explosion sent Garchomp flying back five meters, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, but it also put him out of Blastoise's close range.

They both took a deep breath almost at the same time.

The sand beneath their feet was covered in a crisscross of cracks, traces of water and blood interwoven. Mega Blastoise's left wrist cannon was broken, leaving two cracks deep enough to reveal the bone on its carapace. Mega Garchomp's chest scales were charred black, its dorsal fin cracked by the icy fist, and every breath he took brought forth blood foam.

Yu Longyuan raised his hand, slowly closed his five fingers, and shouted loudly: "Dragon Wave!"

A dragon-like glow shone from Garchomp's mouth, and a purple-red dragon-shaped trail slashed out in a fan-shaped pattern, enveloping Blastoise like a giant net. Before the trail reached its destination, three deep furrows had already been plowed into the ground by the air blade.

Xiao Mao's response was just one word: "Mirror reflection."

The crystal in the center of Mega Blastoise's carapace suddenly lit up, and a translucent curtain of light rose. Dragon's wave, reflected on the curtain, was unexpectedly deflected back towards Garchomp, catching it off guard. The powerful attack knocked Garchomp off balance, and he stumbled as he landed.

"Opportunity!" Xiao Mao's eyes flashed, "Rocket Headbutt!"

Mega Blastoise slammed its limbs into the ground, transforming itself into a blue cannonball, the air at the tip of its shell compressed into a cone of white mist. Garchomp hastily raised his blade to block, but the force of the rocket hammer sent him careening backwards ten meters, his dorsal fin plowing a bloody trail in the sand.

Yu Longyuan gritted his teeth: "Ni Lin!"

Crimson dragon energy gushed from the cracks in its scales. Mega Garchomp's eyes glowed crimson, and its dual blades and tail blade swung uncontrollably, each strike leaving a rift in the air. With the remaining force of the rocket hammer, it charged forward, its teeth entwined in the violent aura of its scales, aiming for its throat.

Xiao Mao showed a very faint smile at this moment.

"Let's end it like this, Blastoise, Water Wave!"

Mega Blastoise's three cannons pressed simultaneously against Garchomp's chest, the water bullets compressing within the barrels as a blue light condensed into a single point. Garchomp couldn't dodge the madness of Nilin's attack, and could only watch helplessly as the cannons lit up with a brilliant blue light.

boom! ! !

The compressed water bomb exploded at zero distance, and the ultra-high-pressure water bomb penetrated the scales. The red light of the inverse scales dimmed instantly like a flame extinguished by water.

The force of the explosion tore Garchomp's massive body over, sending it crashing heavily to the sand. Its blades and tail blade drooped helplessly. The dust slowly settled.

The referee's flag was raised high, and his voice pierced the heat:

"Groshark is incapacitated! Mega Blastoise wins!"

Yu Longyuan was silent for three seconds, then retracted Garchomp, stroking the ball's surface with his fingertips. "...Well done, old partner."

Xiao Mao let out a long breath, the light of Mega Evolution dissipated, Blastoise's carapace was covered with cracks, and all three gun barrels were overheated and scrapped. He looked at Garchomp's Poké Ball with eyes full of respect.

Under the blazing sun, the yellow sand rustled silently. Ten meters apart, the two trainers stared at each other, sweat and dust crisscrossing their faces like battle lines.
