Pokémon the Movie: The Journey of a Slate

The venue, which was comparable to a large arena, was extremely dark with almost no lights. However, this still could not suppress the enthusiasm of the audience. Noisy discussions were heard everywhere. The flickering glow sticks and the signs with the names of Sirona or Eslo on them seemed extremely dazzling.

At this moment, beams of light suddenly fell, illuminating the center of the playing field below, and there, a green-haired young man appeared like a ghost without anyone knowing when.

The entire audience suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at the young man and recognized his identity. At this moment, the young man picked up the microphone and spoke slowly.

"Good evening, dear friends! Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to be here. I am A-Liu, the Insect King of Sinnoh. I am honored to serve as the referee here. I will not waste any more time on this. Now, let us invite the two opponents to come on stage."

After the words were spoken, there was no challenger or challenged, no senior or junior, there were only the two opponents and the anticipation for the battle.

Thunderous applause and cheers suddenly rang out, and the arrival of one of the Four Heavenly Kings undoubtedly aroused more enthusiasm among the audience.

Then, two more beams of light fell, illuminating the entrances on both sides of the battlefield.

"First, it's the Sinnoh region's champion and an authoritative archaeologist - Sirona!"

The tall, blonde figure was the first to catch the audience's eye, and Miss Champion walked with her usual confident and graceful steps.

Shirona turned her head and waved to the cheering audience, then looked at the girl standing in the darkness at the entrance in front of her and nodded slightly.

"Next, it's the messenger of the God of Destruction, the supernova trainer - Aislo!"

Taking a deep breath, Aislo strode towards the trainer's position on the field, and at the same time, he imitated Shirona and greeted the audience around him.

The cheers were the same as usual, but this was normal. After all, in most people's minds, the status of the god holder, or the god's messenger, was on par with the regional champion.

"Come on!" The girl's ears moved slightly. Even though the familiar voice was mixed in the endless sound waves, she could recognize it instantly. Looking in the direction where the voice came from, Eslo met Mary's bright eyes and nodded slightly.

"Come on..." Eslo whispered softly, and the Poké Ball belonging to Absol also shook slightly in response.

"Both players have come on stage, so I will briefly read out the rules of the game again - each player can use only one elf, and can only use four skills in this battle. Okay, now, the battle begins!"

As Liu finished his words, he quickly jumped onto the ancient giant dragonfly and moved away from the center of the venue. At the same time, several shield sword monsters flew out from nowhere and performed their exclusive skills together - King's Shield.

A transparent barrier slowly rose up, isolating the battlefield from the audience seats, and also announcing the start of Aislo's first match against the regional champion.

"Dance in the sky - Land Shark!"

The passionate voice pierced the sky. Shirona held her head high and threw the red and white ball in her hand high up like an undefeated queen.

A white star flashed in the sky for a moment, and then a tall figure "chopped" the star into pieces, swooped down to the ground at high speed, and raised a cloud of dust.

"Woo——"

The low roar was like a wild beast suppressing itself. Even if Land Shark was just standing there, the overwhelming momentum was enough to crush a person.

Battle legends!

"Show us all, Absol!"

Eslo gently took off the Poké Ball from his waist, and then threw it out suddenly. At the same time, light blue light filled his eyes. Facing Shirona, she did not dare to be careless, and used the power of wave guidance at the first opportunity.

"What!"

The short hum seemed to be announcing its arrival. Absol jumped out of the red light and landed on the ground.

Although his red eyes were burning, he still looked at the huge figure opposite him calmly. Even though the other party was stronger than him, he had no intention of backing down.

"Bite the land shark fiercely, meteor swarm!"

The moment Absol appeared, a decisive voice suddenly rang out, and Sirona seemed to give Eslo no time to react.

Land Shark roared, and a shining purple ball of light shot out of her mouth and shot into the sky, then exploded violently, and meteorites fell like rain.

"Sure enough, this is the trick used at the beginning?" Eslo's eyes flashed. Having watched a lot of Shirona's battle videos before, she naturally knew that this was a manifestation of the other party's attention to the opponent.

【Beware of the evil wave. 】

Through the power of waves, Eslo communicates with Absol's heart.

"Soooooo——"

Absol raised his head high, and black energy vented from his mouth. The black halo containing terrifying power seemed to form a barrier, facing the falling meteorite head-on.

"Boom——"

There were bursts of explosions, accompanied by Sirona's clear voice, "Grevo, Sword Dance!"

Garchomp moved slightly, an invisible aura surrounded her, and vaguely four sharp swords seemed to emerge around her body.

[Evil waves attack the feet! 】

Aislo frowned as he watched Tyrannosaurus dancing with his sword.

The meteor shower attack was coming to an end, and Absol took the opportunity to smash the black halo that had not yet dissipated under his feet. The aftermath of the explosion affected him, and although it caused some damage, the next moment, Absol's momentum increased instead of decreasing, and even his scarlet pupils became darker.

"A heart of justice?" Sirona smiled, "Grevolucrane, split the tiles!"

As soon as Absol raised his head, he saw the terrifying figure coming in front of him.

【Defense! 】

The moment the girl gave the order, Absol responded quickly.

A black barrier formed between Garchomp and Absol, and Garchomp's raised claws suddenly fell down.

Unexpectedly, the barrier was surprisingly soft, like a sponge, and the sharp claws of the Land Shark along with its wing-like fins sank directly into it.

With this force, Absol jumped high back and drew a perfect circle in the air.

【Strange power! 】

"Swoosh--" Absol jumped right above Garchomp and gathered all his strength, causing the sickle on his head to glow white.

Absol chopped down with all his might, forcing Garchomp to defend hastily and was knocked back more than ten meters.
