—------------------—
In this match between Ash and Gary, Mewtwo not only came out to maintain the safety of the surrounding houses, but also acted as a referee.
Having been around Ash for so long, I have seen many referees. The so-called referee does not just make a judgment at the end of the battle, then stop the opponent's aggressive behavior, and declare the result of the game.
As for fouls, I haven't seen any fouls in any game so far.
Therefore, apart from maintaining order, the position of referee is not a big deal. Compared to humans, an Pokémon like her who is powerful, has a very high IQ, and can communicate with humans is more suitable for this position.
Both Ash and Gary had experienced a game in which an Pokémon was the referee for the first time. Although it didn't matter, it was still a bit strange to see an Pokémon on the referee's bench.
Fortunately for Ash, Mewtwo was his Pokémon, and when he was the referee, he became the referee. Gary felt very uncomfortable. You know, Mewtwo not only beat him violently at the Viridian Gym, but also made him suffer a lot on the new island.
Now it's on his side. Although this is something I've known for a long time, I'm still a little uncomfortable with it.
However, this discomfort was quickly suppressed by Gary. The focus now is still on the game with Ash.
"Go ahead, Blastoise!"
"The decision is yours, Charizard!"
Both sides threw the Pokémon balls in their hands at the same time, and the water and fire of the classic Starter Pokémon appeared on the field.
The water-type Blastoise and the fire-type Charizard are the final forms of the three Kanto families, and they are also the ace Pokemon in the hands of Gary and Ash.
Generally speaking, the ace refers to the strongest Pokémon in the hand, and it is also an existence that can bring hope to the trainer in adversity. As long as there is still one breath left, there is a possibility of victory. This is the ace!
The Blastoise is like this to Gary, but the Charizard is not like this to Ash.
If you want to say that Charizard is an Pokémon who creates hope in adversity, then Charizard can be considered one. But if you want to say that Charizard is the strongest existence among Ash, then Pikachu and Gardevoir have something to say.
Except for Mewtwo, the three giants in the team are basically on equal footing. If you have to say it, Pikachu may be stronger at his peak, but now, he is even weaker than Charizard and Gardevoir.
After all, Pikachu has only reached the peak of the gym. If it does not enter the partner form, it will be completely inferior to Gardevoir and Charizard in terms of level and ability value.
If Pikachu enters the partner form to compare with those two, then the two of them also have something to say - let's find out about MEGA evolution.
So until Pikachu returns to the Elite Four level, he can only be regarded as the weakest among the three giants in the team.
But even the weakest one can still be called the ace in the team. The difference between Ash and others is that others only have one ace, but he has three!
Looking at Gary's Blastoise, a look of surprise flashed across Ash's eyes. At the Quartz Conference, Gary's Blastoise had already reached the elementary level of the gym. After the competition with him, the Blastoise should have improved again and reached the intermediate level of the gym.
But now, in just one month, Gary's Blastoise has reached the same Elite Four level as the Charizard!
Ash repeatedly confirmed that Blastoise was indeed the Elite Four. The progress in this level was a bit exaggerated. Charizard and Gardevoir had reached the peak of the gym when they were at the Quartz Conference, but it was not until they traveled to the Orange Islands for about half a month that they successfully reached the Elite Four.
Gary's Blastoise was two levels lower than Gardevoir and the others at the Quartz Conference, but now it has directly reached the Elite Four level. Is this scientific?
However, Charizard is now not as simple as the Elite Four Junior, but the Elite Four Intermediate.
The battle with Lorelei's armored shell allowed Charizard to gain a lot of experience. Coupled with a period of precipitation, Charizard has also successfully advanced to the Elite Four Intermediate.
This kind of progress should be very incredible in the eyes of others, but only Ash knows how much effort he has put into training the Pokemon in his hands.
Not to mention the guidance of various bosses, his Pokemon are also unparalleled in terms of food.
In addition, there are additional auxiliary props...
Although this is not fast, it is not weird. On the contrary, it is Gary's Blastoise, and that progress is called weird.
There is a huge hurdle from the Gym to the Elite Four. It is much more difficult to go from the Peak of the Gym to the Junior Elite Four than from the Junior Elite Four to the Intermediate Elite Four.
How did Gary manage to train the Blastoise to such an extent in just one month?
"Are you surprised? I know, Ash, you have the power to see through the levels of Pokemon. Now you should have seen the level of my Blastoise, right?" After Gary saw Ash's slightly surprised face, he knew that Ash had already seen the level of the Blastoise.
Gary is not surprised at all that Ash has such an ability. After all, the magic of Ash's aura power cannot be described in a few words. Compared with directly raising the Pokémon by a large level, there is also such a weird performance as fighting with the divine realm level. It's just that it is not easy to see through the level of the Pokémon.
But seeing through is one thing. It is absolutely impossible for Ash to know how he trained the Blastoise to the Elite Four level in just one month. All of this is due to the memory he gained after the Quartz Conference.
"I see, Gary, how did you do it? You actually raised the Blastoise to the Elite Four level in one month. This speed is even more abnormal than me!" Ash said with emotion on his face.
He was really curious about how Gary managed to improve the Blastoise to such an extent in such a short period of time.
Even if he didn't have additional help, such as the legacy of Big Shot from Chat Group, it would be difficult to upgrade the middle-level Pokemon in the gym to the primary level of Elite Four in one month.
Gary has basically been weak to him since he went out to travel. After he grew better and better, Gary was also pulled bigger and bigger by him.
At the Quartz Conference, Gary's ace Blastoise was only at the beginning of the gym, while his ace Charizard, Gardevoir, and Pikachu were already at the peak of the gym.
This gap was actually caught up by the opponent in just one month. Where did he go to practice cultivation? Did you cheat? !
"I'll tell you after the fight. Let's agree first that this time you can't use the weird power of the amplifying Pokémon! Otherwise, who will fight you!" Gary gave up and made a request to Ash, prohibiting Ash from using the power of the aura to amplify the Pokémon.
Even though he has been enhanced to the epic level now, after Ash's aura power amplifies the Pokemon, it can make Charizard reach the championship level in one breath!
It's not like he didn't watch the match between Ash and Lorelei. The power of the aura and the banner of MEGA evolution actually directly overwhelmed the champion mid-level scallop in terms of hard power!
You know, Charizard was only a junior Elite Four at that time. With such a span of increase, who the hell is playing with you!
Even though his Blastoise has reached the primary level of Elite Four, it is still far different from the champion level!
So if Ash uses the power of the aura to amplify the Pokemon, then he will just turn around and leave, which is ridiculous!
"I don't know how to use it. When the level gap is not too big, I will never use the power of aura to increase the power of Pokemon. Relying on level to crush others is not my fighting style." Ash curled his lips and said with disdain.
His fighting style has always been to jump over the level and fight with others. There is almost no situation where his level suppresses others, except for this one.
When he fought against Gary at the Quartz Conference, the Pokemon he sent were either lower level than Gary's Pokemon, or at the same level as Gary's Pokemon. If he had used the top Pokemon such as Charizard at that time, he could have directly eliminated Gary in six rounds - one per round.
A battle like that is meaningless to Ash. It can't even be called a battle. It doesn't improve himself or the Pokemon at all, so why bother? Do you want to satisfy your own pleasure of eating food?
So there is no need for Gary to say that he will not use the power of the aura to amplify the Pokemon.
"Indeed, that is in line with your style. Doesn't it mean that you don't fight against the headwind, right?" Gary also recalled that Ash basically did not fight in the tailwind. If Ash really used the power of the aura to amplify the Pokemon, this battle would be really meaningless.
After the two sides were silent for a second, the two of them raised their arms in unison and shouted: "Charizard/Blastoise", MEGA evolves! ! "
Two colorful rays of light shone on the field, and within a moment, MEGA Charizard X and MEGA Blastoise appeared on the field.
Dr. Oak had walked out of the research institute at some point. He looked at the two MEGA evolved Pokemon and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, times have really changed!
Without MEGA evolution now, it is like breaking an arm. There is no way to reach the top of the game.
Thinking back then, there were so many fancy systems in their battles, including Gigantamax, Z-moves, and MEGA evolutions, none of them.
What they compare is the hard power of the Pokemon, the command level of the trainers, and the bond between the trainers and the Pokemon.
Now, in addition to the above conditions, the two sides are also fighting for their background.
Those who have Gigantamax, Mega Evolution, Z-Move, and three trump cards are more powerful and one step ahead.
Sir, times have changed!
"You use MEGA to evolve from the very beginning, you really look up to me! "Gary teased with a smile on his lips.
"Both and each other, didn't you just use MEGA to evolve? "Ash shrugged, and then his expression became serious.
"Charizard, Flamethrower! "
"Blastoise, Water Gun! "
The moment the command was given, the two MEGA-evolved Pokemon burst out with powerful energy at the same time.
The fire-breathing dragon suddenly opened its huge mouth, and a condensed blue flame burst out with a blazing wave of air. The temperature was so high that the air was slightly distorted, and even left shallow scorch marks on the ground where the flame passed.
On the other side, a huge cannon behind the MEGA Blastoise instantly lit up with a bright white light. At the same time, the small cannon barrels in its hands also condensed two waves of water flow. Three waves of light blue water condensed into thick water columns in the air, carrying fine water splashes and fierce wind pressure, and headed towards the blue flames.
"Boom! ! "
The blue flames and the light blue water column collided in the center of the field, and violent energy exploded instantly.
The heat of the flames and the coldness of the water clashed fiercely, forming a vague white mist barrier. Dazzling sparks and low roars continued to burst out from the white mist. The ground around the venue was shaken and trembled. The two breaths of heat and cold were constantly intertwined and colliding in the air. The terrifying aftermath spread and hit the barrier that had already been laid out, causing ripples.
The collision between the two sides was entangled in the air for more than ten seconds. Finally, amid the roar of the fire-breathing dragon, the power of the flames increased again by one degree, and the scope of the flames became larger, directly swallowing up the water fluctuations formed by the three water flows!
"Tsk! "
The water mist instantly evaporated into a large white smoke under the burning flames. The fluctuating water column completely collapsed and turned into fine water splashes all over the sky.
Because most of the power was used to evaporate the water wave, the remaining flames only had a little bit of incomplete power after they came to the Blastoise.
The flame burned the Blastoise's shell, leaving a little charred mark on it, and then it completed its mission.
The confrontation between the two sides ended with Charizard being slightly superior.
Gary's face was a little heavy. It could be clearly seen from the fight just now that even the Blastoise, which was advancing by leaps and bounds, was still no match for the Charizard in a head-on encounter.
Ash's Charizard is simply monster level.
Let's not talk about the simple reason that water attributes restrain fire attributes. Let's just say that the Blastoise's water wave is amplified by a super launcher, and its power is basically the same as that of the flame jet.
If you add the Water's attribute's restraint on the fire attribute, then the water wave should win after a moment of stalemate.
But now the result is completely opposite.
There is only one reason for this result, and that is that the Charizard is stronger than the Blastoise in terms of physical strength!
That Charizard... is the Intermediate Elite Four!
It's so outrageous to open the fucking door for outrageous things, it's so outrageous!
It was because of his adventure that he was able to improve the Blastoise to this level in a short period of time. It would be basically impossible for him to do it as fast as that one month later.
Then why is Ash able to upgrade Charizard from the peak of the gym to the intermediate level of Elite Four in just one month!
If he remembered correctly, Ash and Lorelei fought against each other a week ago. Charizard was still a junior Elite Four.
Now he's an intermediate? I can't cheat as fast as you!
These rivals are shocked by each other now. You are shocked by how quickly my Blastoise improves, and I am shocked by how quickly your Charizard improves. Dr. Oak, who is watching the game as a third party, said - these two guys are both perverts!
