Chapter 261 Serena is coming to the capital.
At Ash's call, Charizard flew into the arena.
Why fly? Of course, it's because it's easier to perform the dragon dance while flying in the air!
To others, Charizard is a showy Pokémon with a flamboyant flying posture, flapping its wings and wiggling its tail, dawdling before finally entering the fray.
In Ash's eyes, his Charizard was frantically stacking Dragon Dance, brimming with winning spirit!
Charizard, its competitive spirit is on full display!
It absolutely does not want to lose.
As for whether the opposing Articuno will have any objections, well, wild Pokémon don't understand these things. It's all normal in Pokémon battles.
That's the difference between having someone to raise you and not having someone to take care of you.
"Charizard, breathe fire!"
"roar!"
Charizard's attack was extremely fast, giving Articuno no time to react. The flames struck Articuno's body directly, causing considerable damage.
However, being a legendary Pokémon, Articuno is quite tanky with excellent Special Defense. Despite the pain, it flew high into the sky and used Ice Shard.
Numerous large ice cones quickly gathered around it.
This also shows that this Articuno is quite strong; the number of ice spikes is so large that they almost cover the entire sky where it was fighting Charizard.
Sharp, large ice spikes hurtled down from the sky towards the fire-breathing dragon.
Extremely fast, the tips of the ice spikes gleamed with a cold light, like deadly blades, and when they hit the ground, they blasted deep craters.
"Wow, this Articuno is amazing!"
As expected of a legendary Pokémon, Miki has also seen other Ice-type Pokémon use Ice Shards.
However, in terms of both quantity and quality, the ice shards used by those Ice-type Pokémon are far less powerful than those used by Articuno.
"Hmm, not bad." Xiaoxia is a woman who has met the God of Ice.
Having seen all those powerful Pokémon, she was naturally not overly surprised by the strength displayed by this Articuno.
"Won't Ash's Charizard be in danger?"
"Don't worry, it won't happen." Xiaoxia still had a lot of confidence in Xiaozhi and Charizard.
After all, he's an old Charizard who's fought many powerful Pokémon.
"Everyone get out of the way of the fire-breathing dragon!"
After two layers of Dragon Dance acceleration, Charizard nimbly twisted its body and weaved through the large ice spikes of ice shards.
It perfectly dodged this round of attacks, and while twisting its body to dodge, Charizard secretly stacked another layer of Dragon Dance.
Speed and attack power increased again!
"Well done, Charizard! Charge in and unleash Flame Charge!"
Three Dragon Dances increased Charizard's Attack and Speed by three levels each, making Charizard's skill damage 2.5 times the original.
Add to that the powerful physical attack move Flare Blitz, and Ash will be able to take down Articuno in one hit.
The Charizard, with its perfect understanding, immediately grasped Ash's idea and began to flap its wings with all its might, its entire body flashing with flames.
It charged toward the Articuno in the sky with astonishing momentum; at that speed, its opponent had no way to dodge.
But to Ash and Charizard's surprise, Articuno quickly spread its wings, and several rock-like objects that had been prepared beforehand appeared in front of it.
"Gurgle!"
Several beams of light shot out from these strange rocks in an instant, hitting the Charizard and causing great damage.
The collision of the skills created a violent explosion in mid-air, knocking Charizard down from the sky.
"What?!"
Ash immediately recognized the move as Rock-type Primal Power after successfully blocking Charizard's Flare Charge and inflicting such significant damage.
Charizard is four times weak to Rock, no wonder Charizard's attacks were interrupted.
But the old flamethrower is also tough; even if its attack is interrupted, it can quickly get back up from the snow.
"That stinky bird actually had this trick up its sleeve."
Ash had never seen Ice God use any moves other than Ice-type moves, and the Pokédex contained very little information about all Legendary Pokémon.
That's how the other side took advantage of the information gap.
Articuno was able to outmaneuver Team Rocket, who were piloting specialized mechs, in the snowy mountains until Ash and his friends arrived; its intelligence is truly extraordinary.
but----
"Articuno, you traitor with a four-fold weakness to Rock!"
That's right, Articuno is also 4x weak to Rock.
Using Rock-type moves to deal with Charizard, which is also weak to Rock, is so cunning!
Xiao Zhi expressed strong condemnation.
(Xiaoxia: Between the one who keeps secretly folding dragon dance folds, who's the more cunning one?)
"Since the opponent is so cunning, then you can't blame me." Ash immediately revealed the Key Stone to Mega Evolve Charizard.
"Oh, this is—"
They witnessed an incredibly rare scene: Charizard was once again emitting the light of evolution, and Meiqi quickly jumped up and down to take pictures.
"Xiaoxia, Xiaoxia, aren't you surprised? Charizard has evolved again!"
"This isn't a normal evolution; it's Charizard's Mega Evolution," Xiaoxia said, adding that she had seen it many times before.
"Mega evolution?"
"It's a special evolution discovered in other regions, where a special stone can be used to unlock a Pokémon's potential."
"This allows the Pokémon to undergo a temporary Mega Evolution."
Mega Evolution hasn't officially spread to the Kanto and Johto regions yet. Even though Ash used it in the Kanto League Tournament, not many people in either region know about it.
Few trainers know about her, let alone Mei-Chi, who comes from a family of police officers.
So, we could only reluctantly let Xiaoxia take on the role of knowledge sharing officer.
Upon hearing this, Meiqi kept the news in mind, wondering if her Skarmory had Mega Evolved.
On the battlefield, Charizard completed its Mega Evolution, unleashing a series of furious roars.
It transformed into a Super Charizard Y, gaining a massive power boost.
And when it evolves, it secretly performs a dragon dance, adding another 0' to its attack and speed!
"Charizard uses Rock Slide!"
You use Rock-type moves, we'll use Rock-type moves too. This is Charizard's ultimate weapon in the valley.
It's practically invincible against rocks that are four times weaker.
Charizard immediately adjusted its posture, determined to win this time, its attack would not be interrupted by its opponent again.
Hard rocks materialized in its claws as it swiftly flew towards Articuno, the shockwave from which it took off shaking apart the thick snow on the ground.
The original soil beneath was exposed. Articuno was frightened by the sight of Charizard hurling a large rock at it and quickly flew away to avoid it.
As it flew, it also used the power of the Primal Stone to attack the Charizard behind it.
But now, even when holding a giant rock in the air, Mega Charizard can easily twist its body to dodge Articuno's attacks.
They closed the distance rapidly, and Charizard had already far surpassed Articuno in speed.
Finally seizing the opportunity, Charizard appeared directly above Articuno and slammed down the large rock it was holding.
"Gurgle~"
The enraged rockfall sent Articuno plummeting back to the ground like a kite with a broken string.
"Now for the final blow, Charizard Seismic Toss!"
"roar!"
Charizard charged forward at incredible speed, getting behind Articuno before it could recover from its fall.
He forcefully picked up Articuno again in a domineering manner and flew into the sky.
It drew a beautiful arc in the sky, the Earth's silhouette flashed by, and Charizard quickly swooped down, slamming Articuno heavily to the ground.
This time, Articuno was completely unable to stand up. After struggling for a while, it lost its ability to battle.
"roar!"
"Sigh, Charizard can also throw things on Earth?" Meiqi felt that she had already been shocked enough today.
With so many amazing things happening to Ash, Miki found him increasingly interesting.
Interesting man, you've caught my attention.jpg
"Ash's Charizard not only knows it, but it's also its ace move."
Although it's unclear why Charizard's ace move is Seismic Toss, Ash's Charizard always makes sure to use Seismic Toss when the battle is about to end.
If the battle didn't end like this, Charizard wouldn't be satisfied.
[Ding! Congratulations on completing the side quest "What kind of legendary Pokémon are you?": Defeat Articuno using Charizard]
【获得奖励:联盟币+800;攻击+1;体力+1;自由属性点+2;喷火龙Mega进化石(X)+1】
The quest that was triggered when Charizard first evolved has finally been completed.
Old Charizard is strong enough to solo kill a legendary beast!
"The dragon is the symbol of emperorship!"
After praising Charizard, Ash quickly threw a Master Ball at Articuno.
Legend has it that even when a Pokémon is unconscious, it is extremely difficult to capture it with a regular Poké Ball.
Unless they are fully conscious and do not resist at all, their unconscious expansion of their own power can burst a regular Poké Ball.
So Ash threw out the Master Ball that Professor Oak had given him, because he didn't want to throw the same ball hundreds of times over again.
The Masterball struck Articuno with lightning speed and precision.
With a thud, it was quickly and successfully subdued.
"Alright, I've caught Articuno!"
After successfully catching it, Ash went to the two old Articuno.
"Then Articuno will become my important partner from now on, and I will definitely take good care of it!"
The two old Articuno nodded; this was a legitimate battle agreed upon by their own children.
Since they won, their children can travel with Ash, and the two Articuno naturally have no objections.
After responding a few times, they quickly spread their wings and flew back to their nest on the mountaintop.
"Wow, Ash is amazing!"
This was the first time Meiqi had ever witnessed a trainer successfully capture a legendary Pokémon.
My amazing knowledge has increased!
Ash's goal of reaching the Great Snow Mountain was perfectly achieved.
The anomalies on this side of the mountain have subsided, and the Pokémon have gradually returned to their homes to continue their lives.
A day later, Ash and his friends quickly waved goodbye to Miki and continued their journey.
"See you next time, Mei-qi. Good luck, Prosecutor!"
"Okay, Xiaozhi, Xiaoxia, take care of yourselves too. I will definitely become an excellent prosecutor!"
Miki was a little reluctant to part with Ash and his friends, feeling that it would be very interesting to travel with Ash.
But then I thought about my childhood dream of becoming a prosecutor, and those painful exams.
In the end, Meiqi decided to stay and continue to work hard to pursue her dream.
With Ash's help, Miki successfully completed her assessment, and the League Central Committee quickly issued her official appointment.
"So, I'll be working with this colleague to complete the mission from now on?"
"That's right. This is a tradition of experienced prosecutors mentoring new ones. For a period of time after you officially become a prosecutor, this senior prosecutor will be your mentor."
"If she deems you unqualified during a mission, your prosecutor's license will be immediately revoked. Remember that!"
"Oh, why is this happening~"
The Alliance Secretary, who was in contact with Meiqi, had a serious expression, even though he was Meiqi's father.
But he is an upright official who would never give his own child special treatment; all the proper procedures must be followed, and it's impossible to cheat or shirk responsibility with him.
"By the way, this will be your partner from now on. She's an outstanding senior who has completed many difficult missions."
"Be humble and learn, and don't leave a bad impression!"
"understood."
After receiving the information from her father, Meiqi looked at it carefully and was surprised to find that the sender was a very young and lovely girl.
"They seem to be younger than me, yet they're already senior prosecutors."
Meiqi herself is just a newbie who has just passed the assessment; the gap between people is really huge.
And quite coincidentally, Meiqi is from the Officer Jenny family, while the senior opposite her is from the Joey family.
"Nightingale Joy —"
Flame Charge: "Serena, are you up?"
In Asaka, a town in Carlos, a capable woman is deftly carrying boxes that are about to be sent to an air freight company.
Seeing that there was no response from upstairs, she knew that her brat was sleeping in again.
"Little Arrow Sparrow, I'm sorry to trouble you again."
"Chirp chirp!"
Soon after a scream, Serena reluctantly came downstairs, clutching her forehead.
"Mommy, could you please stop letting Little Arrow Sparrow wake me up from now on?"
"That's because you like to sleep in. Okay, hurry up and pack your things. We're about to leave for the capital."
Sachi ignored the child's complaints and continued carrying her luggage.
"Hey~, can I not go?"
Serena really didn't want to go to such a far place.
Even though it's her own mother participating in the finals of a world-class competition, as her daughter, she should be there to cheer her on.
But every time, Saki would take this opportunity to force Serena to undergo armored rhinoceros riding training, which Serena resisted.
Despite possessing extraordinary talent inherited from her mother, Serena doesn't really want to become an armored rhinoceros rider like her mother.
"You were so enthusiastic when we went to Kanto last time, why don't you want to go this time?"
"That's because—" Serena blushed and quickly shut her mouth.
I definitely can't tell my mom that I want to go find someone I liked as a child.
"Alright, I won't let you train this time. The competition will be held in a beautiful seaside metropolis in the Johto region."
"If you do a good job of taking care of Mom this time, I will give you pocket money."
"Really? Mommy loves you so much!"
Upon hearing that she wouldn't have to train and would even get pocket money, Serena immediately jumped into her mother's arms, knowing she could go to the new city to buy all the cute things she liked.
Saki helplessly held her daughter.
"The main reason I'm taking you on this trip is to broaden your horizons by visiting different regions." Sachi looked at the childhood photo of Serena on the table and sighed at how fast time flies.
"In a few years, according to Carlos's laws, you will reach adulthood, and at that time you will have to choose your future goals."
"Have you thought about whether to travel and become a trainer, or pursue some other dream?"
"Okay, Mom, I'll think about it carefully."
Realizing her mother was about to start nagging again, Serena quickly ran back to her room to pack her luggage.
"City of the Capital—"
Serena was really looking forward to it, wondering if she would encounter anything interesting in such a faraway place.
