Double comparison: Elves? Heroines? Gather again!

Although the result was somewhat different from what Xiao Hao had expected, the entire conference was indeed pushed to a climax by this outrageous competition as he expected.

After this battle, many trainers who had originally lost hope regained their confidence. Although the Bug-type Pokémon they captured were not strong, they could not defeat the opponent's human-machine opponents.

Even the orb-silk spider can defeat the giant armored mantis, so it seems reasonable for the hair ball in my hand to kill a giant mantis...

But it is obvious that Ash is not a retard like Goh. Relying on the high attack and high speed of Mantis, he can defeat his opponent within three rounds in almost every game, which for a while brought many hot-headed trainers back to reality.

......

"After fierce competition, we have finally reached the finals. Now, please invite Xiaozhi and Nancy to come on stage to decide the final champion!"

The competition progressed very quickly and it came to an end before we knew it. The two finalists were also the most popular contestants in this conference.

There is no need to say much about Ash, who has Gigantic Pincers. Nancy's Beedrill has Flying-type moves, and with the advantage of being able to restrain Bug-type Pokémon, she is making rapid progress.

Coupled with his good looks and superb command skills, he gained quite a few fans at the scene, and his popularity was even higher than that of Xiaozhi.

"Both of these two people's Pokémon, Mantis and Beedrill, have mega forms. Whoever wins the championship will be able to improve their strength by a large margin. I'm so envious."

"Morphology? Can't you evolve by wearing this thing?"

"Of course not. Only a few Pokémon can evolve if they carry a Mega Keystone."

"If you put it that way, I'll feel better. It turns out I won't need it even if I win."

Why are you joining in the fun when you don't have a Pokémon that can mega evolve? The person being asked was secretly dissatisfied, but he still asked out of kindness: "Which game are you in?"

"The battle where Ariados was defeated by Metapod."

"..."

Lost to Metapod? Such a niche word...

"That thing keeps getting harder, and my Alidos can't hit it."

"..."

This guy is also a talent...

I didn't expect that a small insect catching competition would also be full of Crouching Tigers and Hidden Dragons, full of Crouching Dragons and Phoenixes...

"As expected, the final opponent is still you, Nancy."

Facing this familiar opponent, Nancy's expression was somewhat solemn. Unlike Satoshi, as a gym trainer, she was well aware of the attribute restraint relationships of Pokémon.

The Bug-Steel-attributed Giant Mantis is completely immune to poison-type moves, and its flying-type moves that could originally cause double damage to Bug-types have also lost their advantage.

I didn't expect that I could capture a Giant Mantis in the wild. This guy has some luck. It's a pity that there is no Vulcan Moth in the Kanto area, otherwise it wouldn't be in such a passive situation.

But it's not my style to be timid before a fight: "Go!"

With a low shout, the Poké Ball in Nancy's palm opened, and a white light shot out from it, and the light dissipated after a moment.

A giant hornet appeared in the field, its sharp double needles flashing a deadly cold light, its wings vibrating and making a buzzing sound, and it kept circling in the air with a provocative look.

"just!"

Feeling the opponent's provocation, the giant mantis naturally refused to accept it. Its eyes shot out a cold light and it got ready, waiting for the order to give the opponent a fatal blow.

"Lianqie!"

Xiaozhi took the initiative, and the Giant Mantis turned into an afterimage and rushed towards the Giant Beedrill at lightning speed. When the pincers were swung, the air was torn apart, making a sharp whistling sound.

"Giant Beedrill, use high-speed movement to avoid it."

The silhouette of the Beedrill became blurred and disappeared from the spot in an instant, avoiding the opponent's thunder attack. Its speed was even faster than that of the Giant Mantis.

"Missile needle!"

Following Nini's order, Beedrill appeared behind Giant Mantis like a ghost, and then countless flying needles shot towards Giant Mantis like a rainstorm.

"Hold on!"

"just!"

The giant mantis roared, crossed its pincers in front of its chest to make a defensive posture, and a transparent energy shield appeared, blocking all the missiles.

Taking advantage of the gap between Beedrill's attacks, Xiaozhi swung with one hand: "Sword Dance! Increase attack power!"

The giant mantis danced its pincers, and several red lights attached to the red armor appeared faintly, and the whole momentum continued to rise at an almost visible level to the naked eye.

Seeing this, Nancy, who was always calm, couldn't help but frown. She even learned the sword dance. This game was more troublesome than she had imagined: "Don't let it succeed. Gather your energy in the air and then rush over with a deadly needle!"

Although the effect of Qi Gathering is not as good as Sword Dance, the casting speed will be much faster and you can seize the initiative.

After receiving the order, the Beedrill hovered in the air for a moment, a faint white light swam around its body, and then it dived rapidly, and its two needles emitting cold light pierced the giant mantis.

There was still some time before the sword dance spell was finished. Looking at the giant hornet rushing towards it, the giant mantis did not dodge or evade. A trace of determination flashed in its eyes, and its pincers suddenly crossed in front of its chest.

"boom!"

The sharp sound of metal collision was heard, and the red pincers collided with the Beedrill's needles, bursting into dazzling sparks, and the surrounding air seemed to tremble.

The two sides were in a stalemate, and after a while, the giant mantis completed its sword dance, and its momentum reached its peak. With a loud roar, a powerful air wave swept across the entire field from its body, and both of them were shaken apart and kept their distance.

The Beedrill retreated to mid-air and hovered, its two needles trembling slightly due to the powerful impact. Its scarlet eyes stared coldly at the giant mantis below. There were two white scratches on its pincers, which were particularly conspicuous against the red background.

"Is the full force of the concentrated energy only leaving a scratch?"

A hint of disappointment flashed across Nancy's eyes. The defense of this giant mantis was indeed well-deserved, or maybe the level of this temporarily captured giant beedrill was too low...

Thinking of this, Nancy had already made up her mind. She took out the Poké Ball from her waist and aimed it at the Beedrill in mid-air.

"boom!"

A red light enveloped the Beedrill, and then it disappeared on the field.

"Is this admitting defeat?"

This sudden change made Xiaozhi a little overwhelmed. In his opinion, the game had just begun.

"I just felt like there was no point in continuing this game."

Nancy didn't explain too much and turned to leave. She would not be afraid of fighting, but she would not continue to be entangled in a meaningless battle.

"Why don't they stop fighting? They've only fought for one round!"

"Shady! Shady!"

Some spectators were dissatisfied. They didn't care who won or lost, they just wanted to have an exciting match. It was hard to accept that the match ended just as it began.

"Idiot! The outcome of the match can be determined after just one round."

Some trainers who understood the situation retorted: "This was a lightning-fast battle. As soon as Mantis seized the opportunity and performed Sword Dance, the game was over."

Xiaozhi also took the Claw Mantis back into the Poké Ball, staring blankly at the direction where Nancy left, muttering: "Why can't I trust my Pokémon..."

In Xiaozhi's heart, as long as the Pokémon has not fallen, he will not give up even if there is only a 1% chance of winning the game. He believes that the Pokémon will definitely respond to his feelings and burst out with infinite possibilities in desperate situations.

This is his own path, and he has no right to interfere with other people's fighting methods. But even if he is the only one on this path, he will keep going on!

......

The conference came to an end. Xiaozhi couldn't help but be distracted as he looked at the Mega Key Stone shining with charming light under the spotlight. He became stronger again. Ahong, Ye Yue, Tetsuya, Darko, Kotetsu, and Alan, I don't know if you will participate in the World Championship, but this time I will definitely defeat you and win the championship!

"But lately I've always felt like something's missing. Do you feel that way, Pikachu?"

Xiaozhi took back the Mega Key Stone. Although everything went well during the trip, it felt like something was missing compared to the past. It seemed like it was going a little too smoothly...

"Pikapi?"

......

"Aqiu!"

At the same time, in the Orange Islands, thousands of miles away from Chengdu, three long-lost black figures slowly appeared in a spaceship that was parked on a deserted island...

........................To be continued.......................

Some people said that Xiao Hao’s ending in the previous chapter was not very good, so I changed it. Those who are interested can take a look.

The Chengdu region has also ended with two more story chapters, and the next is the Hoenn region, where Ash will officially enter the World Championship qualifying battle and meet familiar partners.
