Chapter 1438 Giant Coral
The dazzling light engulfed everything.
But this time, what rushed towards the audience was not smoke and gravel, but countless colorful flowers radiating a bright green glow.
They are like waves that have been stirred up, suddenly covering the entire chaotic and rugged scene, and rushing one after another towards the protective devices that have been triggered from all sides. It is dazzling to watch, yet one cannot help but want to reach out and catch one.
What a beautiful move!
The audience was inevitably drawn to them, but even those in the front row could not possibly reach out of the protective barrier to touch those seemingly beautiful, but actually extremely dangerous flowers.
Fortunately, the flower "bloomed" from the inside out the next second, and the verdant energy flames mixed with shock waves swept across the entire field, making a deafening roar on the protective barrier!
Rumble rumble rumble!
A huge column of smoke shot straight into the sky.
The emerald green light mixed in made it stand out brightly.
The host shouted, "The Lucky Egg is in full bloom with vibrant colors! But did it hit the Thousand Faces Beast after being pierced by a sniper's bullet?!"
Undoubtedly, [Sniper] pierced through the giant ball of light at the last moment, making it difficult to determine whether the explosion was intentional on Blissey's part or a result of the move's power being triggered prematurely due to the influence of [Sniper].
Ash and Pikachu stared intently at the billowing smoke and dust on the field. Hop looked worried as he rubbed his hands together and prayed for Inteleon along with Wooloo in his arms.
A short while later, the rising smoke settled.
The scene below gradually became clearer, and the arena, still covered in rubble, came into view. They first looked towards Dan Di's front, at the location of the Thousand-Faced Avoid.
The palace arena fell silent instantly, everyone eagerly awaiting a result.
As Deng Pei entered, the Rotom drone in the sky remotely focused on him, projecting everything he saw onto the big screen.
The results are obvious.
"Azur Lane is unable to battle! Eggicatcher wins!" Deng Pei supported his floating Aegislash, with the unconscious Azur Lane beneath him, and raised his right hand to announce the result of the match.
Not far away, Happy Egg let out a sigh of relief, "Happy~"
"Well done, lucky egg."
Kashiwa smiled and praised him.
The sniper shot may have shattered the vibrant, blooming flowers, but that didn't stop their energy from flowing downwards.
In terms of power, Z-Moves, which can only be used once, are much more powerful than Dynamax Moves.
Deng!
Below the bust of Dan-te, the headshot of the Thousand-Faced Bie-yi is dim.
The audience gasped in unison, followed by gasps of surprise.
The third one!
Leon's third Pokémon has been captured!
"Something seems off?"
"Yes! That's the Pill Emperor!"
"Is there something wrong with him today? He shouldn't be like this!"
Countless die-hard fans of Dan Di endured the first and second rounds, but finally couldn't hold back in the third round.
Three Pokémon were defeated in a row, all in one-on-one battles...
If Dan-di is fine, then the problem must lie with Kashiwagi on the other side.
—Is this guy who appeared riding Rayquaza really that powerful?!
So far this week's trending Pokémon charts still feature a short video of Shiny Rayquaza carrying Kashiwagi to the arena.
The reason why Pokémon are called legends is precisely because their existence is like a legend, impossible to verify or confirm, leading people to believe that they are nothing more than rumors passed down by word of mouth.
Many Pokémon were only confirmed to exist in recent years due to the development of the internet.
But those are usually just short clips of low-resolution video.
Kashiwagi was the first champion trainer to brazenly bring a shiny Rayquaza to a world-renowned arena, as if to announce it to the entire world.
"Where did this monster come from?!"
"We can't expect Charizard to be our only hope..."
Don't jinx it!
The commotion continued in the stands. Hep covered her eyes, and the woolly sheep in her arms let out a listless bleat.
Ash and Pikachu comforted him, "Don't be too anxious, we're only halfway through!"
"Pikachu! Pikachu!"
"……Um!"
Hop patted his cheek lightly. The match wasn't over yet; his brother still had his strongest Charizard to make its appearance.
I believe in Charizard!
In contrast to the somber mood of the Galar champions' fans, the Maw of Fowl's supporters were so excited they almost shouted themselves hoarse.
Three wins out of three, and the opponent is the previous world champion. If they can continue this winning streak, a true legend will surely be born!
The Rockets trio happily blew their horns and set off small firecrackers.
"That's incredible!"
"Invincible!"
"The World's Number One King—"
Before they could finish their sentence, the nearby spectators began to glare at them angrily.
It seems that the location they chose was close to Dan Di's supporters, and their overly arrogant behavior just happened to provoke public outrage.
However, similar scenarios have already played out around the world, even on a plane flying to Galar.
The room was unusually quiet, and Zhu Lan gave a helpless smile, as if to say, "I knew it."
"There are three more."
"..."
The Galar Gym Leaders fell silent.
They certainly understood what the three things Zhu Lan was referring to were; they hadn't realized before that being able to use the entire system was a bad thing.
They just thought that Dan wanted to make the match more difficult so that it wouldn't be so easy to win.
What now?
They don't know that the Pill Emperor is absolutely desperate, but if they were in the Pill Emperor's position, they would certainly be in a state of utter despair.
How can we keep going like this?
No one spoke; they simply focused their gaze on the field, looking at Kashiwagi as if he were some kind of superhuman monster.
Despite being a champion from an unfamiliar place, and a trainer who only began to shine two years ago, Leon, who had previously dominated them, also nearly dominated them.
Although the match was not over, and although they had more or less come into contact with Kashiwagi before, the mental impact at this moment far exceeded that of their previous defeat.
The game is halfway through.
The atmosphere in the entire palace arena became eerie.
Dan Di noticed this change.
After all, since his debut, he has always been surrounded by loud cheers and applause, which are like clusters of flowers, often scattering around him.
Until just now.
For the first time, there were fewer "flowers".
Others might not be able to detect it, but for Dan Di, discovering it was as simple as it could be.
He wasn't discouraged; instead, a fire ignited in his heart.
"Wait a little longer, just a little longer."
Leon pressed down on the trembling Poké Ball at his waist and said softly, "It's not your turn to step in yet!"
Then he threw out another one.
boom!
A white light flashed.
The Thunder King Kong landed in the arena, its body still bearing the marks of burns, but fortunately, the Invisibility Rock had been dispelled by the Thousand Faces...
Even at the cost of oneself.
As usual, Kashiwagi, who was not far away, made an exchange, sending out Galarian Coral, the opponent handpicked by Golem.
"voice……"
The Galar Corsair sighed, regretting its own lack of ambition.
If I had defeated my opponent earlier, I probably would have already left work today.
"acrobatics!"
Emperor Dan quickly issued the order.
Despite the burning pain, the Thunder King Kong roared and suddenly leaped up, nimbly flying out and pouncing at the Galar Coral at an extremely fast speed, intending to engage in close combat.
Kashiwagi: "Immobilization spell."
Dare to use your movement skill carelessly? I'll ban you right away!
"voice!"
The Galarian Coral's eyes lit up with blue light, and an invisible wave instantly spread out towards the other party.
The Thunder King Kong stiffened slightly in mid-air, but quickly broke free from the immobilization spell. This move's strong control effect could only be used to bully ordinary Pokémon; it wouldn't work against Leon's Pokémon.
"Hoo-ri!"
Using the momentum of its leap, the Thunder King Kong nimbly spun around, its heavy body transforming into a high-speed spinning giant hammer, which then crashed to the ground, hurtling towards the Galar Sun Coral.
Boom!
Dust rose from the ground, but was quickly dispersed.
The Thunder King Kong punched the crippled Coral, sending it flying like a basketball.
Dan Di continued shouting, "Keep going! DD Golden Hook Arm!"
"Hoo-ri!"
The Thunder King Kong transformed all the pain from its burns into fighting power, its body spinning rapidly once more, black and red flames igniting between its arms, turning it into a terrifying hurricane of fire, preparing to attack the Galarian Corsola that was flying almost to the edge of the arena.
Its continuous attacks are exceptionally fast and fierce, seemingly disregarding everything else, only wanting to repay its opponent with the full pain of being burned by flames.
Kashiwagi's choice in response was—
"Hold on."
"voice!"
Galarian Coral erected a crystalline spherical shield of light, and despite the fierce onslaught of Rumble Gorilla, it still adopted a defensive strategy.
The opponent was in high spirits, and he seriously suspected that the Galar Coral would be knocked away again without having a chance to use the power absorption. However, momentum is something that can only be exhausted once in a while.
The burns on the Thunder King Kong's body were real; as long as they held their ground, they were guaranteed a win.
There's no need to fight head-on with the opponent, or even be greedy with your moves.
Ouch!
The deafening roar continued above the spherical light shield as the swirling, thunderous gorilla roared and launched relentless attacks, as if trying to tear the light shield to shreds.
Unfortunately, the burn's attack reduction effect was too fatal, greatly hindering the full release of the move's power. As a result, Corsola's Protect only cracked its surface, far from completely disintegrating.
“Hoo-ri…”
The swirling black storm gradually subsided, but the raging King Kong remained furious, though his chest began to heave.
Dan Emperor: "Try again! Smash it down!"
He had just given the order when Kashiwagi had already retrieved the Galar Sun Coral.
The host exclaimed in shock, "Kashiwagi took back his Pokémon! Was he going to trade it? Or—"
The sudden burst of purple light proved everything.
On Kashiwagi's wrist, the Dynamax Wristband continuously emitted a purplish-red light, which flowed into the Poké Ball.
The Poké Ball, the size of a potato, suddenly grew to the size of a stone block and exploded with a bang as he threw it forward!
Ouch!
Dark clouds filled the sky, and amidst the rocky ground, the petite Galar Sun Coral was enveloped in a purplish-red light, its body growing larger at a visible rate.
In just a few breaths, the Dynamaxed Corsola appeared before everyone!
It was as small as it was before, and it's as big as it is now!
"voice……"
The Dynamaxed Corsola let out a low growl, its eyes, which were originally like eerie candles, now seemed like two red lanterns, sending chills down one's spine.
Its multiple pores release large amounts of gray smoke, which quickly spreads and forms jagged, smoke-like coral tentacles.
"Hoo-ri!"
Rumble Gorilla looked up at the giant Dynamax Corsola without any fear or hesitation, and launched an attack on it according to Dan's previous instructions!
"Giant Ice".
The cypress wood has an opening.
The Dynamaxed Corsola let out a long cry, and a cold mist gathered above the field. A chilling air current, originating from it, quickly enveloped the sky. In the blink of an eye, countless tiny ice crystals appeared. They rapidly coalesced and, as Rillaboom approached, transformed into ice crystals the size of houses.
rumble!
Numerous irregular giant icicles plummeted diagonally from mid-air, densely covering the sky and earth.
Having lost its acrobatic high mobility skill, Rillaboom could only rely on its own dodges to face these ice spikes. However, the sheer number of them and their wide coverage forced it to stop its approach to the Dynamax Corsola.
Thump thump thump—!
Upon landing, the icicles shattered, unleashing a wave of milky-white air that swept across the entire area, creating a chilling cold wave that blanketed the entire venue.
The Thunder King Kong had no choice but to swing its right arm to defend itself, but the icy gust of wind forced it to stagger backward.
Having barely weathered the cold wave, white mist gathered high in the sky, and countless tiny hailstones fell from the heavens, densely sprinkling down and covering the broken ground with a layer of snow-white marks.
But the key point is that each hailstone carries a weak elemental energy, constantly eroding the stamina of Dynamaxed Corsola and Rillaboom.
bake!
Flames engulfed him, and ice chilled him to the bone.
The sudden change from hot to cold caused the King Kong to contort its face; it had never experienced such pain before.
Unlike Rillaboom, whose physical condition was not very good, Gigantamax Corsola, whose stamina doubled due to Dynamax, was very healthy and didn't feel anything even when covered in snowflakes.
Dan: "DD Golden Hook Arm!"
"The Great Barrier!"
Kashiwagi chose to hold on once again.
Rillaboom roared loudly, channeling its remaining strength into a determination to defeat its opponent, and charged toward the Dynamaxed Corsola.
It was greeted by a huge, polygonal, semi-transparent light shield.
The pitch-black storm crashed against it, only creating barely perceptible ripples, much like how modern weapons in EVA attack Angels.
It looked powerful, but in reality it didn't cause much damage.
Once, twice, thrice, until exhausted.
The current Thunder King Kong is already in a state of exhaustion and may lose its fighting spirit at any time.
and so.
"Giant Ice".
Kashiwagi decisively used a third Dynamax move, showing no intention of saving Dynamax for the next match.
As the Dynamaxed Corsola roared, massive ice shards rained down from above the arena, shrouded in white mist, relentlessly bombarding the unprepared Rumble.
As Dan Di watched this scene, he was thinking about something else entirely.
"Some kind of temptation?"
He looked up at the hailstones falling from above.
Although Ice-type is super effective against Grass-type, there should be a better way for Dynamaxed Corsola to attack Rillaboom.
Kashiwagi did this for one purpose only—
Lure him into sending out the Ice-Treading Puppet!
