Chapter 1419 Thunderous Giant Duck
The cheers that resounded through the sky lasted for a long time.
The Super Shiny Gengar panted, smugly enjoying its moment of glory.
After this battle, Platinum Silver Mountain's three giants must have secured their place, right?
It's the kind of Pokémon that can defeat the strongest Mega Pokémon!
"Hehehehe—"
The will of the Super Shiny Gengar entered Kashiwagi's mind, and the latter looked helpless.
The "Big Three" thing doesn't really have much to do with the team's record.
Even if you defeat Pikachu, so what if you can't beat the first three?
However, the Super Shiny Gengar is currently immersed in joy, so there's really no need to dampen its spirits.
"Gengga! Gengga!"
The large, pinkish-white Pokémon blew kisses to the audience, eliciting another wave of screams. Champion Pokémon are usually quite aloof and rarely engage in such direct "interactions," making this all the more exciting for many.
Gengar's fans in the Maw of Fowl fan club started recommending it to fellow enthusiasts, successfully expanding their fanbase and adding many new subscribers to Gengar's live stream.
At the same time, some are happy while others are sad.
Backstage, Minoru Yama's palms were covered in a thin layer of cold sweat. He felt extremely thrilled and excited, realizing that winning or losing could indeed be decided in an instant.
"This guy... always makes things so dangerous!"
He said this with considerable displeasure.
If possible, he would prefer that Kashiwagi win the match in a safer way, rather than with this heart-pounding, almost choking fighting style.
Dan laughed heartily, "There's nothing we can do about it! Daigo's Metagross is indeed very strong! It doesn't hurt to be cautious!"
As a fellow champion of extraordinary strength, he felt admiration and envy for Kashiwagi at that moment.
He admired that even in that state, Kashiwagi was still able to think calmly and make the best choice for Mega Shiny Gengar; he envied that Steven and Mega Shiny Metagross were in such a state that they were enough to pose a threat to him.
A formidable opponent is a rare find!
"It's the final round."
Minoru leaned back slightly, regaining his composure. Next up was a righteous three-on-one battle. As long as Kashiwagi didn't intentionally lose to Daigo, the chance of defeat was infinitely close to zero.
Time to enjoy!
What he liked most about watching Kashiwagi compete was the sense of security he felt when his opponent's ace Pokémon was defeated and only their main Pokémon remained.
Some people focus on the process of the competition, while others focus on the result.
Minoru Yamazaki is undoubtedly the latter.
Most trainers are the latter, which makes the atmosphere in the arena relaxed and enjoyable amidst the enthusiasm.
Others who supported Kashiwagi were largely the same, all adopting an attitude of certain victory.
Inside the arena, Kashiwagi, sensing something was amiss, broke out in a cold sweat.
"These people... don't let them trigger my Great Wu's bond power!"
Every champion in the anime is comparable to a protagonist in the Pokémon world; their "idealistic" power is simply suppressed by their overwhelming strength.
Therefore, he never dared to underestimate any champion-level opponent.
Fortunately, Steven's perception wasn't as sharp as his, and he was more focused on himself and his Pokémon than on the noise outside.
"You've worked hard, Metagross."
It was a pity to lose this game, but Daigo doesn't think he made any mistakes in his decision.
When facing a Super Shiny Gengar, a Pokémon that appears and disappears unpredictably, predicting its exit and attacking it is arguably the best approach.
But who can blame them when the other side has both a strong system and high strength?
Aside from being relatively fragile, Super Shiny Gengar boasts top-tier attack, speed, and reflexes...
In a way, this could be considered tankiness, right?
What's the difference between having high evasion that makes it impossible to hit someone and having super strong defense?
After thinking it over, Daigo decided to study it further after the match. Battles were arguably his second most interesting thing besides digging for stones.
"Well then, it's the last bit of time, let me enjoy it a little longer."
He smiled and sent out the last, and also the first, choice, Skarmory.
The battle with Kashiwagi was enjoyable, at least that's how he felt. As a witness to his opponent's growth step by step, Daigo felt more gratified than disappointed by the loss of the ace.
Looking back on my first encounter with Kashiwagi and our subsequent interactions, it's hard to imagine that this big boy has grown up so quickly.
"Gah!"
The Skarmory enters.
Then, its body sank slightly as it fell from mid-air to the ground.
Although Super Metagross has lost its ability to fight, the "legacy" it left behind is still in effect.
It looks like it will take some more time before it completely disappears.
Kashiwagi naturally withdrew the Super Shiny Gengar, thus denying it the chance to bully the Ground Chicken.
"Go."
boom!
A burst of white light erupted, falling into the arena and transforming into the red and blue Porygon II.
"Bang!"
The toy duck's quack had a slightly mechanical sound. Its Download ability activated, providing Skarmory with a one-stage Special Attack boost, taking advantage of Skarmory's weaker Special Defense.
buzzing.
An orange-red light flashed, and countless multi-faceted mobile phone flashlights in the stands lit up, the simultaneous bright light eliciting a small chorus of gasps.
Currently, the market share of multi-sided mobile phones and mobile Rotom is close to 6 to 4, with the former undoubtedly holding the majority.
And this ratio is gradually approaching seven to three.
After all, the Polito II has been promoting itself everywhere. It has recommended it to most people who have interacted with Kashiwagi. With word-of-mouth influence, it is normal for people to prefer the Polito phone.
Moreover, there's the living advertisement of cypress wood.
Although no one expected their multi-faceted phones to dominate the arena like the champion Porygon II.
But it's inevitable that similar fantasies will arise.
Countless people are casting expectant glances at it, curious about how it will handle the final outcome.
As Porygon II entered the arena, Daigo quickly issued commands.
"provocative!"
He knew very well that Kashiwagi's Porygon II was also skilled in many unpredictable and varied moves, and that it was more worthwhile to use Taunt to block it than Shiny Milotic, which was good at offense.
As for why they didn't switch in to provoke the Super Shiny Gengar...
Steven isn't stupid. Super Shiny Gengar's ability is Shadow Tag, so once it's on, there's no chance to get off.
"Gah! Gah gah gah!"
The armored bird emitted a hoarse, noisy cry at Porygon II, immediately releasing a black and red light wave, but the latter seemed to have no intention of protecting itself.
"Texture".
As soon as the words were spoken, lightning patterns gradually appeared on its surface.
Porygon II stared intently at Skarmory, letting the incoming light waves cling to its body and imprison its transforming moves.
Daigo was slightly taken aback. "This is..."
He suddenly realized something.
Just as he had predicted, Kashiwagi suddenly pulled out the ball and took Porygon II into it, but not in an exchange, but rather—
Dynamax!
A crimson light flowed from the Dynamax wristband into the Poké Ball, causing it to grow larger inch by inch in the blink of an eye.
The announcer shouted, "The third system has appeared! Kashiwagi has given Dynamax to Porygon II!"
Wow!
Excited cheers erupted from the audience.
While Mega Evolution and Z-Moves are both cool, they can't compare to Dynamax in terms of sheer impact.
Therefore, whenever a champion's Pokémon Dynamaxes, it is a moment that excites the audience.
Furthermore, Kashiwagi rarely uses Dynamax in public, and everyone is eagerly anticipating the power his Pokémon will unleash when using Dynamax moves.
It's probably on a cataclysmic level!
boom!
A giant Poké Ball enters the arena, explodes, and emerges a black toy duck with lightning-patterned markings that gradually grows larger.
Dark clouds filled the sky, giving people an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Daigo took a deep breath. "Looks like we need to think of something on our end too!"
He rolled up his left sleeve, exposing the Z-bracelet to the public.
Yes.
He's about to use a Z-Move!
Daigo knew that if he didn't use it now, he'd likely never have another chance. "Go! Skarmory!"
"Gah!"
The armored bird charged forward without flinching, even though its opponent was a colossal creature it could not comprehend at all.
next moment.
Kashiwagi gave the command, "Max Lightning!"
"Pa pa pa—"
Dynamax Porygon II let out a roar that resounded throughout the universe. Dark thunderclouds gathered in the blink of an eye, and in a sudden burst of blinding light, a terrifying lightning bolt, like a thunder dragon, fell upon Skarmory below!
Boom!!
The devastating lightning ravaged the shattered ground, instantly scorching the earth and cracking it with countless hideous wounds. Fist-sized boulders were reduced to ashes, and the powerful high-voltage electricity seemed intent on annihilating all living things within the area!
All the audience members were shocked, and the loud noise echoed in their ears, lingering like tinnitus.
Everyone felt a sudden white light before their eyes, and when they came to, a purplish-red protective device had been activated in front of them.
What a swift and powerful lightning bolt!
Many viewers in the Galar region were surprised by the Dynamax moves unleashed by Gigantamax Porygon II.
Electric-type moves are known for their speed, but this is just too fast.
The Skarmory probably doesn't even have many chances to defend itself, let alone dodge.
Everyone turned their attention to the smoke rising from the arena, wondering if the Z-Move had been interrupted.
Otherwise, why is there no light at all?
The host also said, "Max Lightning hit! A very effective attack! Did Skarmory withstand it?"
The current surged within the site.
Even though it was shattered by the elemental energy, the electrical field still appeared.
This also means that the next Max Lightning Bolt will be even more powerful.
"Armored Bird!"
Daigo remained calm as he called out into the smoke, "Let Kashiwagi see what we've accomplished in the Alola region!"
"Gah!"
A hoarse voice rang out, and in an instant, as the pure crystal light on the Z-bracelet shone brightly, the smoke surrounding the armored bird dissipated.
Beside it was a shattered light shield, clearly indicating that, like the Shiny Milotic, it was prepared to hold out until the end by defending, not defending, and defending again.
This failure to defend gave Steven the opportunity to use his Z-Move.
Kashiwagi watched the two figures dance, golden light pouring from Daigo into Skarmory's body, showing no intention of holding back, "One more time! Max Lightning!"
To ensure maximum output, he even prevented Porygon II from using Provoke.
If three Max Lightning Bolts can't take down Skarmory, then all those level rewards from Duck will have been for nothing!
So what if it's a Z-Move? It'll still slash!
"Metallic brilliance illuminates the sky!" Daigo shouted, "Superb—Spiral Combo!!"
"Gah!!"
The armored bird screeched, its metallic body spinning around, transforming its beak into an indestructible drill, and charged toward the Dynamaxed Porygon II at incredible speed!
Its gleaming metallic sheen makes it exceptionally bright, and as it swirls, it stirs up visible air currents and dust, forming a giant spiral arrow!
In response, Dynamax Porygon II had only one reaction—
Max Lightning!
*Crack!*
A deafening roar and blinding white light descended upon the arena once again, this time with even greater power than before, thanks to the enhancement brought by the electric arena!
The thunder roared and collided with the huge metal spiral formed by the armored bird, as if the lightning had encountered a lightning rod, completely attracted to it without letting a single bolt escape.
But the lightning didn't pierce its body immediately; instead, it coiled around its surface as it spun, drawing it to remain there.
This scene was very similar to the offensive-defense strategy that the Glass Dojo is good at. They were using this method to completely return the electric-attribute move that was effective against the water attribute to the opponent, thus avoiding serious damage to themselves.
As a seasoned expert, how could Kashiwagi not know this?
"Gah!!"
As the Skarmory screeched, like an arrow at its maximum power, taking control of the electricity and pulling them back towards the Dynamaxed Porygon2, he gave the third command.
"Dynamic Lightning!"
There is only one way to crack the secrets of the Glass Dojo—
Unleash a move with power exceeding its limits!
You can block one Giant Lightning Bolt, but what about two?
"Bang!!"
Dynamax Porygon II roared and, just before its Gigantamax Spiral Strike struck its belly with lightning, completed the charge for its third Max Lightning Bolt, causing the fast and accurate lightning bolt to crash down from mid-air!
*Crack!*
A blinding brilliance tore through the air, carrying a terrifying aura that seemed to destroy everything, and landed in front of the Dynamaxed Porygon II, colliding abruptly with the charging Skarmory!
This time, the Skarmory had no strength left to resist.
Even now, as it drives the steel-attribute power of the Super Spiral Combo, it is still like a resistor broken down by high voltage, forced to break free from the state of a metal drill bit.
Boom!
The earth cracked like a hideous scar, and countless fissures burst open on the thick wings of the armored bird, with large patches of translucent, sharp feathers falling off and turning to charcoal in an instant.
It was as if it had been struck by a giant hammer falling from the sky, its will was instantly ripped out, leaving it with no ability to resist.
The spectators outside the arena didn't see what happened. The Giant Lightning was too bright and too short, so when their vision returned, there was nothing to be seen except for the drifting blue smoke in the arena.
"This is……"
"Porymon II has used up all three of its Dynamax moves?"
The crowd was buzzing with discussion.
A gentle breeze blew away the swirling dust and smoke, revealing the scene inside.
To their horror, not far from Polygonus II, in a deep pit resembling a spider web, lay a Skarmory with tattered wings, its bright silver armor now covered in charred black.
Deng Pei: "...Skeleton is unable to battle! Porygon II wins! The winner of this match is Kashiwagi!"
He rubbed his eyes, clearly also quite irritated by the bright light.
