Chapter 796: The Great Test
The next day.
Kashiwa door-to-door delivery.
The bear was nowhere to be seen, probably he had gone out to collect honey.
The Bear is playing with Gingerbread, Good and Bad Star, and Mimikyu, and makes friendly noises when he sees him.
"Mm- ...
"Ah ha ha."
He responded with a smile, walked into the tree hole and went straight to the second floor.
I saw Musashi sitting idly in front of the big-screen computer, lazily crossing his legs and eating pudding, Meowth silently mending the hole in the hot air balloon, and Kojiro fiddling with the Z-pure crystal detector.
"I'm here to get the machine."
Kashiwagi shouted straight to the point.
Musashi and Meowth turned to look at him, then turned back with blank expressions.
As the saying goes, distance creates beauty, and the same is true for emotions such as fear. Too frequent contact has made the Rockets gradually accustomed to his presence.
Although it didn't give the Rockets the courage to take advantage of him, at least the situation where their expressions twisted when they saw him no longer happened.
Kojiro scratched his head and said in a hollow tone: "It should be... done, right?"
"You'll know after you go out and test it."
Kashiwagi urged.
Although he had plenty of time, he still hoped to collect all the Z-pure crystals as soon as possible. Currently, he had normal Z, evil Z, and flying Z.
There are still fifteen pieces left to collect all the attributes.
A long way to go.
The two came outside the tree hole.
Kojiro took a deep breath and shouted, "Z Pure Crystal Detector - ON!"
He pressed the red switch.
In an instant.
The two long-whisker-like antennas swayed violently, then turned to the right, and a red dot began to flash on the small screen.
"Ohhh! There's a reaction! And it's very close! Right to my right!"
Kojiro looked to the right excitedly, and immediately saw Kashiwagi with a gloomy face. He scratched his head guiltily: "Uh, what's going on? Is the machine broken?"
Kashiwagi replied: "It's not broken, it's my problem. Gengar! Give me the box!"
He snapped his fingers, and a different-colored Gengar emerged from the shadows.
"哓GA!"
Gengar stuck out his tongue, and on the bright red tongue was a small box containing Z-pure crystals.
Kojiro was surprised and said, "Could it be that there is——"
"want to?"
Kashiwagi looked at Kojiro with a half-smile and shook the box.
The latter smiled awkwardly and dared not say more.
He thought that the detector would not be able to detect it if it was placed in Gengar's stomach, but he never expected that the Z-pure crystal detector was more sensitive than he imagined.
"Take the box home."
Kashiwagi gave the box to the three-headed dragon and asked it to take it back to the beach house.
If Hoopa was around, he could be sent directly to the safer Pyrite Town. But at this stage, he can only be sent far away to avoid interference.
"Ouch!"
The three evil dragons flew away carrying the wooden box.
Kojiro waited until it could no longer be seen before restarting the machine in his hand, and as he did so he shouted, "Z Pure Crystal Detector - ON! AGAIN!"
This guy……
Thought you were chanting a magic spell?
Looking at Kojiro's outburst of a middle school student, Kashiwagi thought of the "Nirvana" potion that claimed to bring the dead back to life, and then he thought of Satoshi's shaggy dog master, Litten.
It’s a pity that I don’t have a real rainbow feather, otherwise I might be able to try to come back to life.
Between thoughts.
The antenna was pointed behind the two men.
"Oh oh oh oh! Got it! It's very close this time!" Kojiro looked behind him excitedly, where an ancient towering tree stood.
His expression froze again.
The corner of Kashiwa's mouth twitched, and he said, "You also have Z-pure crystals, right?"
I almost forgot!
Team Rocket competed with Team Skull to get a Z.
"there is……"
Kojiro admitted it with difficulty, his eyes darting back and forth, worried that the Z-pure crystal would be snatched away.
however.
Not everyone likes to steal things like the Rockets.
"You can modify the machine to have more functions, such as blocking a certain one or expanding the search scope."
Kashiwagi felt that this elementary version of the detector was difficult to use, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Use your ingenuity."
Kojiro sighed helplessly, "I-I'll try."
Although these functions sound difficult to implement, they are at least more realistic than the Brilliant Stone Detector.
I have no idea about that thing.
"Give me a week this time!" Kojiro was determined to give the detector a major makeover.
Kashiwagi agreed.
-
Two days passed in a flash.
War relics.
Kashiwagi and Hala knelt on both sides of the platform, with a huge banana leaf in front of them.
Both of them looked solemn.
"Today I will have a great test battle with the challenger Kashiwagi. Guardian of war Tapu Kokoro, please grant us the power of the Alola Islands!"
Halla whispered the words of a prayer and finally let out a long sigh.
He turned around and said, "It's over. The prayer session before the big test is over."
"Ok."
Kashiwagi stood up, looked around at the primitive war relics, and asked, "Will Tapu Kokoro come to watch the great test?"
Hara smiled and said, "Maybe, maybe not. Tapu Kokoro is an unpredictable guardian spirit. It only does what it likes."
It is true that the local environment and climate determine the local Pokémon.
Even the guardian god Tapu Kokoro has a changeable temperament, so it seems to be confirmed that the bear and the overlord Rada are so difficult to get along with.
Let the leaders follow their example!
Kashiwagi secretly complained in his heart.
Back to the town of Lili.
The townspeople who were in charge of judging the event stood in the center of the celebration stage, waiting for the great test to begin.
The two of them came to one side respectively.
Hala turned his back to the sun and said loudly, "Are you ready? Once the great test begins, there is no way to pause it!"
"Come here on horseback."
Kashiwagi smiled and showed the Poké Ball in his hand.
The referee shouted, "I declare! The great test battle between Hara, the king of Melemele Island, and Kashiwagi, the challenger of the island tour, has officially begun!"
It has not been announced what the format is, and each side can use a few Pokémon, and it is not that the referee is unprofessional.
The reason is that the island tour battle is different from the regular battle. It is a battle that will change at any time according to the preferences of the guardian god and the island king.
There is no restriction from the Pokémon League here, and the island king who serves as the examiner can do whatever he wants. Whoever they think has passed will have passed, even if there is no battle in the big test.
Liliae used her Z-move [Crazy Earth Ice] and was considered to have passed the big test.
And generally speaking.
The default rule of the Melemele Island Test is a two-on-two singles match.
Kashiwagi throws the ball: "Go!"
Hala then threw up the Poké Ball: "Come on! Victorious Crab!"
Boom!
White lights flashed one after another.
"叏Ga~"
Gengar emerged from a pool of shadows, and directly opposite it was a strange crab with a dark purple shell and giant blue fist-shaped claws.
Victorious Crab, a fist-fighting Pokémon with pure fighting attributes.
"What the hell!"
The big purple crab held its fists and swung like a boxer, and its punches were so fast that they caused a whistling sound in the wind.
Despite being in an unevolved state, the Victorious Crab is not necessarily weak.
After all, the conditions for its evolution have nothing to do with energy levels, what is needed is to take it to the next door, Mount Lanakila on Ula'ula Island.
In other words, like Eevee, it is a Pokémon that can only evolve due to environmental influences.
of course.
There is also a theory on the Internet that the Victorious Crab can evolve into the Victorious Hairy Crab by using the Ice Stone. Kashiwagi believes that this is probably a patch made by GF in the later generations to cope with the harsh evolutionary conditions.
"Ghost attribute? It seems that you did your homework in advance! But——"
Hara shouted, "That's not enough! Bubble Ray!"
"What the hell!"
The Crab jumped up in response, and countless blue bubbles gushed out from its claws, forming a huge bubble wall, rushing towards Gengar not far away!
as predicted.
Just by looking at this bubble ray, you can tell that the competitive crab is quite powerful.
only……
If you want to say how strong it is, it’s just that.
Being underestimated.
Kashiwagi thought and said:
"Get away."
"Hey!"
Gengar rushed forward and crashed into the foam wall as if he was disobeying his trainer's orders, but just when Hala was confused.
It dove headfirst into the shadow cast by the sunlight overhead on the foam wall.
Such are the benefits of facing the sun.
in a blink.
Gengar moved behind the bubble wall, with only a few scattered bubbles exploding behind it.
It laughed strangely: "Hehehehe!"
Hala exclaimed, "Using Gengar's special ability! Not bad! You are indeed a very good trainer just like Kukui said!
"But I should be serious now! Show it some color! Crab Claw Hammer!"
"What the hell!"
The Crab waved its right claw at the flying Gengar, and the water instantly wrapped around it, covering its large aqua-blue claw with a layer of shining fluorescence!
This punch was so fast and fierce that even professional boxers would find it difficult to punch at such a speed!
“Geez!”
Unexpectedly, Gengar, who was approaching, grinned evilly, his eyes suddenly lit up with blue light, and a powerful mental wave spread forward, causing Crab's fist to stop less than 20 to 30 centimeters away from it.
【Immobilization Technique】
A strong control move with general attributes.
The disadvantage is that it is easy to break free, but the advantage is that the initial action is fast and the caster can connect with other skills more quickly.
Um! ?
Hara suddenly felt something was wrong, frowned and shouted:
"The Crab uses the Bubble Ray!"
While talking.
The fluorescent light on the fist of the Victorious Crab quickly dimmed, and the move failed to hit the opponent.
pity.
Seeing that the battle situation was exactly as predicted last night, Kashiwagi shook his head slightly and said, "It's time to end it."
"Hey!"
Gengar smiled widely, watching the Crab trying to open its claws with difficulty, and kindly dimmed the blue light in its eyes to help it break free.
But the next moment.
A dazzling light like the sun breaking at dawn shone from it!
【Magic Sparkle】!
Countless beams of light pierced through the foam beam that the competitive crab had just sprayed out, and the powerful energy impact also blew it away after the explosion!
Bang!
Smokey!
The purple figure of the Victorious Crab flew out of the dust, rolled several times on the ground, and fell to the ground motionless with its eyes showing.
Kill instantly with one move!
The referee looked at Gengar in surprise.
Hara's competitive crab is not one of those "small fish" that can be found everywhere on the beach. It fell down with one hit, even with the restraining attribute...
He suddenly came to his senses, remembered his duty, and shouted:
"The competitive crab has lost its ability to fight!"
"..."
Hara silently looked at the competitive crab that had lost its ability to fight, as if he couldn't accept that the Pokémon was defeated so easily.
But soon.
His deeply furrowed brows gradually relaxed as he said, "You've tried very hard, Crab. It was my misjudgment."
Hara put the Crab back into the Poké Ball, looked at Gengar and Kashiwagi on the opposite side, and said, "Sorry, it seems that I made a huge mistake in my judgment of you."
"how you said that?"
Kashiwagi asked knowingly.
Hara said: "Kukui told me that you are a very good trainer, so I conducted this big test at the level of an excellent trainer... Now it seems that you are more than just excellent."
He stepped forward with his right leg like a sumo wrestler and stomped the ground hard.
Bang!
Hala shouted, "You are worthy of my full effort! Come on! My old partner!"
He threw a Poké Ball while standing in a horse stance.
boom!
White light flashes.
The Pokémon that appeared on the field had gray stone skin and bulging muscles with extraordinary strength.
Kashiwagi thought that was pretty good.
As the king of the island, Hala should have combat power similar to the Four Heavenly Kings in the outside world, but the Victorious Crab just now was at most at the level of a gym leader Pokémon.
Used to amuse children.
"Hypnosis!"
He took the initiative to give orders.
Gengar flew towards the strange power, his eyes glowed with purple-red light, and layers of light waves were released from his eyes, covering the strange power that had just landed.
Without hesitation, Hara yelled, “Wake up Slap!”
Ok?
I was the one who initiated the hypnosis! The meaning of the awakening slap was——
Kashiwagi seemed to have guessed something.
Just as he thought.
The two hands on the strange force suddenly slapped towards his face, and two snapping sounds created a circle of translucent ripples in the air.
Ruthless!
I guess he was holding back.
Otherwise, the awakening slap in the sleeping state will be twice as powerful, and even the strange force itself will be unable to withstand it.
Surprisingly.
Hala: "Shoot it down!"
The two hands of Guai Lixian were lit up with black light at an extremely fast speed, creating an almost seamless connection with the fighting energy light that had just dimmed.
So fast!
Even Kashiwagi couldn't help but feel this way.
But just like the foam wall before, the strange force with its back to the sun left a shadow on the ground that was big enough for Gengar to get in first.
"Get away."
"哓GA!"
Gengar suddenly "fell" into the shadow, his reaction even quicker than his super strength.
Without hesitation, Hara yelled, "Stomp!"
“Yes!”
The strange force raised its right leg and stomped heavily on the stone slab under its feet. In an instant, the stone slab exploded, countless stones and sand flew high into the air, and an ochre-colored shock wave spread out from under its feet in all directions!
however.
Gengar had already crawled out from behind the monster, climbed onto its back and transformed into a flash bomb!
Bang!
The shock wave collided with the colorful light, exploding with a bang to form a gust of wind, while also causing the field to be shrouded in smoke.
Hala ignored the wind and dust blowing in his face, looked up and saw Gengar flying out of the smoke, and shouted:
"Hell Thrust!"
“Yes!”
The monster in the smoke responded to the trainer's command.
It seemed as if it had not received any damage in the explosion just now. It leaped high into the sky. Its lower arms were covered in a creepy blood-red light, like two long spikes stabbing at Gengar!
Gengar had no way to dodge, and was stabbed in the front with both arms by the strange force that flew up, causing his belly to suddenly cave in.
It felt like being pierced.
"Ok?"
Hala was not happy but shocked when she saw this, and shouted, "Hurry up and use Hell Roll!"
It's already too late.
The moment "Geng Gui" was pierced in the belly by the strange force and turned into smoke, another Gengar flew up from below and aimed at the stunned strange force with its eyes shining brightly.
"Hypnosis."
Kashiwagi's instructions came belatedly.
immediately.
The strange force fell to the ground at a high speed like a kite with a broken string.
Bang!
