Chapter 1432 Ash Wins
Garchomp swooped down from a great height.
A brilliant, earthy-yellow glow enveloped its entire body, and under the influence of atmospheric pressure, it formed a large arc, as if a shattered Saturn was falling.
The meteor shower that fell earlier was a fragment of Saturn after it broke apart. The intense prelude has ended, and an even more intense finale is coming!
"Crack!"
rumble--
The deafening roar echoed in his ears, and sweat involuntarily beaded on Xiao Zhi's forehead, but his eyes remained resolute, and his crossed arms made the Z-Bracelet emit a golden glow.
"Here it comes! Pikachu!"
"Pickup!"
Pikachu followed suit, crossing its paws and making the same move as Ash. Pokémon, trainer, and nature resonated in an extreme moment, and the light from the Z-Bracelet spread to Ash's entire body, presenting a silvery-white energy halo.
Wow!
The audience erupted again, and the host shouted, "Ash has used a Z-Move again!"
As they spoke, the light descended upon Pikachu, and with Ash's roar, its small body rose from the ground.
"Unleash our full power! The ultimate spiral combo!"
"Pikachu—"
Pikachu's cry was melodious, and the Z-Force caused its body to spin at high speed. A silvery-white light enveloped its entire body, mixing with its own golden color and quickly condensing into a dense, giant spiral-shaped energy drill!
hum-
The screeching of air friction and the roar of 100,000 horsepower falling echoed one after another.
Steel Z arrives!
The spiraling steel-elemental energy grew increasingly intense, gleaming with a cold, silvery-white light. It carried a sharp wind pressure and powerful penetrating force, making the drill bit even more dazzling and radiant!
Amidst the expectant gazes of all the spectators, the giant gold and silver spiral drill headed straight up, fearlessly heading towards the falling Garchomp!
Both Pokémon charged at each other with all their might, showing no intention of shifting their stance, determined to end the battle head-on!
next moment.
boom--!!
Two energies, pushed to their limits, collided violently. The earthy yellow ground-attribute energy and the silvery-gold steel-attribute energy intertwined, instantly forming a massive energy storm that swept across the entire arena, stirring up the already sandy ground and turning it into a huge cloud of smoke that soared into the sky!
The sunlight was blocked by thick smoke and dust, making the entire visible space extremely dark.
The sheer size of the cloud of smoke was so great that it could be clearly seen even from the city center, several kilometers away from the Palace Arena, which was truly breathtaking.
The ground connecting the stadium to the stands was shaking violently. The protective devices, which had been in place for more than an hour, seemed to have reached their limit and began to flicker incessantly.
The stands were filled with screams that were hard to tell whether they were from excitement or shock, but no one was willing to leave their seats, because the battle inside was still going on.
The continuously released energy storm dispersed the smoke, allowing everyone to barely see the shattered "Saturn" and the "drill" shooting straight into the sky.
However, the brilliance was so dazzling that even people in the Pokémon world could only watch for a very short time before turning their heads away.
Does this scene seem familiar?
Everyone couldn't help but think of the battle between Zhulan and Alice in the previous round.
Both Garchomp and Garchomp are using 100,000 horsepower to bombard each other with giant drills, and both are attacking from a high position to a low position. So, can Garchomp continue its previous success this time?
Countless people are eagerly awaiting it.
Inside the arena, Cynthia and Ash looked up at the sky, their expressions unexpectedly identical.
--trust.
Unwavering trust in Pokémon!
"Crack!!"
As Garchomp charged downwards, its sharp teeth clamped down, and its body involuntarily began to spin in response to the relentless Super Spiral Combo.
It uses a drilling motion in the opposite direction to counteract Pikachu's drill, thereby reducing the opponent's power!
But how easy is that?
Garchomp is Cynthia's ace and is indeed quite strong, but how weak can Pikachu be?
In official matches, it doesn't fake it!
"Pikachu—"
Pikachu roared, and its spinning speed increased to another dimension, causing Garchomp, which had just been spinning in the opposite direction, to be uncontrollably pulled along and start spinning in the same direction as Pikachu!
Cynthia's expression changed instantly. "Garuda! Break free!"
It was too late.
The Super Spiral Combo unleashed 100,000 horsepower, gradually leveling off the angle between the two targets from one high and the other low. Finally, the Super Spiral Combo tore through the yellowish-brown light and crashed into Garchomp's body!
Boom!
A blinding flash of light erupted once again in the center of the arena, engulfing the audience's vision.
An energy storm raged across the area, and the protective barriers began to falter once more.
Nobody cared.
Their eyes were fixed on the ground below, awaiting the outcome.
In an instant, the energy storm slowly subsided, and the scene in the arena gradually became clear. Everyone suddenly saw that Garchomp had been blasted off the field, while Pikachu landed in the center of the arena.
It was bent over wearily, with many small wounds visible on its body, but it still maintained a certain level of energy.
"Pi...pi..."
It was panting heavily, looking up, where a huge shadow was cast down against the sunlight.
It's Garchomp that's returned to the arena.
Its body was also covered with scars, showing signs of battle damage, with its chest and abdomen both bulging and flattened.
The two Pokémon stared at each other.
The host shouted, "The two Pokémon held on to the very end! The battle continues!"
continue?
There's really no way to continue.
Cynthia knew very well that Garchomp only had the strength for one last strike, and even the choice of which move to use for that final blow had to be carefully considered.
If you choose the wrong option, the process may abruptly stop halfway through.
pikachu...
Zhu Lan squinted, unable to judge the other party's condition. Was the damage from 100,000 horsepower not enough?
She took a deep breath and exclaimed, "Dragon Claw!"
"A flash of lightning!"
Xiao Zhi then spoke.
Pikachu took the lead, its legs pushing off the ground and transforming into a white light as it shot towards Garchomp above.
Their reaction was so swift that it seemed they still possessed the fighting power of their prime!
Garchomp roared and, relying on its willpower, swung its fin blades, causing them to flare with blue-green flames, and slashed at the flying Pikachu!
Get out of the way!
Xiao Zhi shouted loudly.
Pikachu feinted a leap, then lateralized to the side of Garchomp the instant it moved upwards, and rammed into it from the side.
Boom!
Garchomp was sent flying by the impact, its body sliding backward several meters, its fin blades embedding deep grooves in the ground.
"Click, click...click..."
Its pupils trembled, it turned its head to look at the Cynthia nearby, then looked at Pikachu not far away, and suddenly roared and pounced.
Pikachu dodged backward, but stopped halfway through.
Garchomp's movement froze, abruptly stopping halfway, its vision blurring.
"Skin?"
no respond.
Deng Pei entered the arena to observe, and after a few seconds he took a deep breath and announced the result in front of everyone, "Garuda is unable to battle! Pikachu wins! The winner of this match is—Ash!"
"It's decided! Xiao Zhi will win the ticket to the finals!" the host shouted.
A thunderous cheer erupted from the audience.
We won!
Hop stood up excitedly, and people all over the world who were watching Ash were also overjoyed.
The Rockets' trio embraced each other in tears, exclaiming, "We really won! A true upset!"
"That little rascal really beat Zhu Lan!"
"That's amazing! Pikachu is so amazing, meow!"
"Whoosh!"
They were Ash's most familiar rivals, and seeing Ash defeat Lance and Cynthia in succession, they felt a strange sense of pride.
The emotions were so complex that they were completely at a loss as to how to cope.
Inside the preparation room, Kashiwagi stood up, stretched, and asked, "What do you mean?"
"My defeat."
The Crowned Queen lowered her eyes. "This person is indeed extraordinary. You must be very careful."
"of course."
Cypress nodded.
In this semi-final, Ash's Bond ability was only a small test, and it was only demonstrated on Sirfetch'd.
As for Pikachu...
All I can say is that this version of Pikachu, with its Z-Move, is incredibly powerful, even stronger than in previous seasons. If you don't like it, don't play it.
Cyndaquil's Garchomp at least fought Sirfetch'd for quite a while, while Steven's Metagross didn't really exert its full strength. Even though it was almost at its peak when it Mega Evolved, it was still defeated by a half-crippled Pikachu with a single Mega Volt and Iron Tail.
Before this, it could easily dodge even 100,000 volts.
In the backyard of Professor Oak's lab, Charizard and other Pokémon excitedly unleashed their skills everywhere, breathing fire and spitting water, and Tracey couldn't stop them in time.
Professor Oak's eyes welled up with tears, but he laughed heartily, "Let them go! This is a day to be happy!"
Ash~~ Pikachu~~
Hanako was overjoyed.
It is no easy feat to overcome the bamboo orchid; it takes years of travel for it to finally bloom and bear fruit.
Backstage, Dan Di stared at the screen, then suddenly shook his cloak and exclaimed, "This is... really getting exciting!"
He strode outside.
The scene of the game.
Ash stared blankly around, as if he couldn't shake off the emotions of the match, or perhaps he couldn't believe that he had really defeated Cynthia and qualified to advance.
Only when Pikachu turned around and ran back did he suddenly jump into the giant pit in the arena and hug Pikachu, who was running in both directions.
"Pikachu! We won!" His voice was filled with excitement, pride, and joy.
Pikachu rubbed against him with a smile, "Pika pika~"
In a way, they helped Alice get revenge by defeating Garchomp with their Super Spiral Combo.
On the other side of the arena, Cynthia walked over to Garchomp, knelt down, and gently stroked the giant's head. "Thank you, thank you for working so hard."
"Crack..."
"It's okay, this is a good thing!"
She smiled and looked down at Ash, "Isn't it a good thing that one powerful trainer after another is emerging? We can continue to grow stronger!"
"Crack!"
Garchomp gave an affirmative response.
Cynthia then recalled it into its Poké Ball, lightly leaped into the pit, and walked up to Ash. "Ash!"
"Miss Zhulan!"
Ash's eyes brightened slightly as he placed Pikachu on his shoulder and smiled, "Thank you for your guidance!"
"Me too."
The two shook hands amicably.
The two had a long-standing friendship, having met more than once and even worked together to thwart the plots of certain evil forces.
This battle was perhaps destined back then.
"Let's fight together again someday! I'm really looking forward to it!" Cynthia looked intently at Ash.
Just like she had done with Kashiwagi before, she issued a challenge to this boy.
Xiao Zhi was stunned. From the tone and expression of the person in front of him, he knew that the other person was serious.
He nodded earnestly and said, "Okay! I'll be ready at any time!"
Even if we had to do it all over again, he would still be the winner!
Bang bang bang!
Cannons boomed around the arena, and countless ribbons fell, celebrating Ash's advancement to the finals.
And after both players have left the field.
A large number of staff members quickly entered the site, only to be met with a headache upon seeing the devastated state of the place.
"A championship-level all-around battle...that's ridiculous."
The damage a three-on-three game inflicts on the field is on a completely different level compared to a six-on-six game.
It's hard to imagine how badly the venue will be damaged in the next match.
The staff members looked at each other, feeling a chill run down their spines.
I sincerely hope that the two champions will go easy on them!
The maintenance engineers of the stadium's protective equipment shared the same idea, as one machine after another buried underground was overloaded.
The promised redundant defense effect is actually still a little lacking!
"It's time for some improvements!"
A stern female voice came from behind.
The engineers turned around and saw the current president, Olive. "President!"
"Miss Olive!"
Olive nodded to everyone, "The World Championships that the president has been so eagerly anticipating absolutely cannot have any accidents!"
President?
Ah!
You're talking about former president Loz, right?
The engineers exchanged glances out of the corner of their eyes, then responded in unison, "Yes!"
The tense and exciting first half of the World Championships featuring eight masters has come to a close.
After the morning's matches ended, there was a long lunch break lasting several hours. During this time, the audience left their seats and enthusiastically discussed the matches.
"The Onion Warrior is really amazing!"
"Super Lucario Z is also very strong!"
Compared to the final battle, the focus was more on the new Mega Evolution of Mega Lucario Z and Sirfetch'd, who dealt a heavy blow to his opponent with his Aura Strike.
Its chivalrous spirit is so inspiring that it has sparked heated discussions online.
Countless Farfetch'd trainers point at Sirfetch'd, hoping it will turn out like this.
However, even if the Galerian Farfetch'd is something else, how can you make a regular Farfetch'd?
Countless Farfetch'd could only watch their trainers, sweating profusely, unsure how to explain that this duck was not that duck, and that there were vast differences between ducks.
all in all.
The internet is abuzz with the popularity of the "Onion Game Soldiers".
But at this moment, it was not in a good mood.
after all……
"Gah."
The Onion Soldier gripped his tattered onion-leaf shield, his expression somewhat desolate.
This thing won't recover after the game ends; once it's broken, it's really broken.
Seeing this, Zhu Lan felt inexplicably embarrassed, "This..."
"It's alright! Onion Soldier!"
Xiao Zhi was the first to speak up and comfort us, saying, "As long as we have swords, we are still knights! Don't forget what Mr. Yan Kai taught us!"
"Gah!"
Cong Youbing nodded emphatically.
There was nothing it could do but accept it.
Onion Soldiers appeared strong on the surface, but inwardly despaired as they put down their onion leaf shields.
Just then, a voice rang out from the side, "So you don't want this thing anymore? I can fix it for you."
