Pokémon the Movie: The Journey of a Slate

"Use the opponent's force to counter attack? That's a good idea." Shirona looked at Eslo, who had not spoken since the beginning of the game, and couldn't help but sigh at the convenience of wave power in the battle, "But... Land Shark, keep going, split the tiles!"

When the speed reaches a certain level, all defense and mitigation become a joke.

"Crack!"

As soon as the order was given, Land Shark turned into a black shadow and rushed out, even leaving a trail of afterimages.

The strong wind blew up the sand and dust and attacked Absol, just like a vast ocean under an endless thunderstorm, with huge waves rolling, and Absol was a small boat in the middle of it.

"Relying on Garchomp's innate speed?" Eslo's eyes flickered slightly, and the figure that was difficult for ordinary people to capture with their naked eyes fell clearly into her eyes. Garchomp kept changing his shape and shifting his position, and the girl's eyes also followed her movement. Eslo was waiting for an opportunity.

It's now!

[Absol, forward, freeze beam! ]

"instigate!"

Without hesitation, the ice-blue light gathered in Absol's mouth and burst out in an instant, carrying a terrifying chill directly towards the paused Garchomp.

"So alike..." Looking at the flashing black eyes in the distance, Shirona couldn't help but think of the legendary trainer who came from Pallet Town to challenge her. Known as the "Man of Battle", he came with the terrifyingly powerful Mosquito-Repellent Warrior. During the entire battle, what impressed Shirona the most was the red eyes that seemed to be flashing all the time. Those non-human eyes were somewhat similar to the girl in the distance.

They always find the opponent's weak points and issue attack orders, but...

"Cut it!" Shirona stretched out her arms and was extremely decisive.

Whether it is Eslo or Absol, their accumulation is far from enough.

"Crack!"

A red light flashed in the eyes of the Land Shark, and its body continued to rush forward with unabated momentum. Its wing-like fins were raised high, and then it chopped down heavily.

The ice-blue beam of light was split in half, but due to inertia and Garchomp's continuous charge forward, she had already arrived in front of Absol.

There's no way to dodge!

Absol's pupils dilated and he tried to move his body, but he could only watch helplessly as the tile fell on him.

In the audience, Mary's pupils shrank, and she even stood up subconsciously in excitement, staring at the situation on the field with her beautiful eyes.

With a slight whine, Absol flew backwards, but fortunately, Garchomp was busy shaking off the ice shards clinging to his skin and did not continue to chase him.

"Fighting against a legend..." Aislo sighed for the umpteenth time. Even though she had seen this kind of power many times, she was still shocked by its magnitude.

If it were any other Garchomp, after taking Absol's ice beam, even if it didn't lose its combat capability, it would have reached its limit.

[Can you still fight? Absol.]

Aislo looked worriedly at the silver-white figure slowly climbing up on the field, and after hearing the girl's words, the latter pushed forward with all four limbs as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and stood up steadily again.

"Shu!" Absol turned his head slightly, his red eyes as firm as ever.

Hearts are connected again at this moment.

"Well, let's get started, Absol, mega evolve!" A dazzling light shone in Eslo's eyes, and the key stone on her wrist flickered. Brilliant chains of light bloomed from her and Absol's bodies, slowly moving closer and finally connecting.

The moment the light chain was connected, colorful light continuously poured out from Absol's body. His body became visibly more slender, and a pair of real, beautiful white wings slowly spread out.

"Soooooo——"

With a long groan, the colorful light shattered in an instant, and Super Absol appeared.

Looking at the figure that was completely different from other Super Absols, Shirona's face was as elegant and calm as ever.

"Speed ​​is no longer an advantage." Sirona seemed to have expected this. "Then here we go, Tyrannosaurus, mega evolution!"

The colorful genetic symbol lit up, and Shirona took out a lipstick inlaid with a key stone and gently applied it on her lips.

Bathed in colorful light, Tyrannosaurus' hands gradually changed, and his body seemed to become more upright.

"Crack——"

After a roar, the even more powerful Super Land Shark appeared on the field.

The sickle-like hand shone with a cold light under the reflection of the light.

With the debut of the mega evolution combat system, the audience naturally fell into another climax. A Liu also gave a timely explanation, explaining in detail why Shirona followed Eslo to mega evolve, but obviously, these had nothing to do with the two people on the field.

Looking at the figure that seemed heavier than before, Eslo's eyes became more alert. If Garchomp before mega evolution was a warrior with both strength and speed, then Super Garchomp was a tank with high attack and defense.

Compared with the terrifying strength and defense bonus, the slight loss of speed seems insignificant.

Shirona's idea is very simple. Since speed is no longer an advantage, she might as well abandon it completely in exchange for more valuable attack and defense.

【Absol, surprise attack! 】

"Bite the land shark fiercely and attack with sharp rocks!"

Sharp rock spikes rose from the ground like suddenly protruding swords, leaving no doubt about the damage they could cause. However, Absol jumped back and forth on the stone pillars without a care in the world, like a graceful dancer dancing on the tip of a knife.

The exciting scene undoubtedly meets the requirements of an "exhibition match".

With the help of wings and extremely fast speed, Absol came silently behind Garchomp, and then rushed towards the tall figure at lightning speed.

"It's now!"

"What?" The sudden and magnetic female voice made Eslo look up in surprise. Looking at Shirona with a mysterious smile on her face, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

next moment……

[Absol, get out of the way! ]

"Bite the land shark fiercely, meteor swarm!"

The terrifying purple light seemed to devour everything, and at that moment, there was nothing else in Absol's eyes.

"Shush!" The moment he realized that it was difficult for him to dodge, Absol used the ice beam without hesitation. He was subconsciously afraid of his failure, so he glanced at Eslo in the distance with the corner of his eye.

There was only worry in the girl's eyes.

That’s great... Absol suddenly felt somewhat relieved, and he himself didn’t know where this relief came from.

"boom--"

The horrific explosion echoed, and the strong wind it stirred up blew up sand and rocks, forcing Eslo and Sirona to raise their hands to resist.

After a long time, the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, and Absol had appeared at the edge of the venue, while Garchomp still stood with his head held high in the center of the venue.

The world seemed to be quiet at this moment, and everyone was looking at the two elves nervously, waiting for the outcome of the battle.

"Woo——"

The light suddenly dissipated, and Garchomp quit Mega Evolution and gasped heavily, but after shaking his head, he stabilized his body again.

Although Absol also exited the mega evolution state, it still stood there quietly and motionless.

A Liu realized something was wrong and was about to go forward to check when Aislo appeared next to Absol.

"Have a good rest, Absol, you're really great..." Eslo looked at Absol tenderly, who was still standing there even though he had lost his ability to fight. She gently hugged the silver-white figure stained with a trace of dust and let him lean on her arms.

There was no sense of loss. Victory or defeat had never affected Eslo's heart. She was even a little happy, happy about the battle, happy that she saw Absol's last look at her.

"You've done well enough..." the girl murmured.

"Absol loses his ability to fight! Sirona wins the battle!"

The result of the match was announced by A Liu, and the audience seats became noisy again, with voices bustling and cheers ringing out.

They were shocked by Sirona's power, marveled at Eslo's strength, and the performance of the two Pokémon. Both trainers were so young, so young that one glance at them filled their hearts with vitality and hope.

In the minds of the audience, there is no "loser" in this battle.
