Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 388 Giovanni's Mega Evolution! Wataru's Soul and Pride
Anyone could see the intense tension between the two players on the field.

"It seems you are really confident, but..."

A-Du curled his lips into a cold smile, filled with intense hostility, and stared intently at Sakaki and Nidoking.

"Even if my Mega Gyarados is poisoned, defeating you is enough before that happens!"

"Gyarados, Water Tail!"

The first wave of venomous attack had passed, and Mega Gyarados roared in fury, its massive tail whipping up waves as it lashed out at Nidoking.

This was a furious strike, its power even greater than the previous two Water Tail attacks.

It's obvious that Mega Gyarados is aware of its own situation, and it's now going all out.

"Hold."

Giovanni remained calm, knowing that Nidoking's direct combat power was absolutely no match for Mega Gyarados.

Furthermore, Sakaki knew that Wataru was experienced in combat, and that Wataru wouldn't have fallen for his tricks so easily if he hadn't been unfamiliar with his own fighting style.

But having just suffered a loss from a highly poisonous poison, it will be even more difficult to continue plotting against Adu.

A green Protect barrier rose in front of Nidoking, capable of withstanding almost any attack.

boom! !

The powerful tail of the water slammed heavily onto the protective barrier, causing ripples to spread across its thin surface, making it appear as if it were about to collapse.

The sturdy defense perfectly blocked the tail of the water!

Adu's expression was cold and stern, his eyes sharp as a knife.

He knew that Sakaki was stalling for time; the continued effects of the poison required time, and the longer it took, the more intense the poison's corrosive effects would become.

Until finally, Giga Gyarados was completely rendered unable to battle.

"You coward! How many times can you hold out?" Adu said coldly.

The "Guard" ability cannot be used continuously. Once used consecutively, the success rate of "Guard" will decrease, and the possibility of failure is very high.

"Waterfall climbing!"

Mega Gyarados roared, and as soon as it finished guarding the barrier, a huge column of water rose high from Nidoking's feet, lifting Nidoking into the air.

Nidoking maintained its balance and looked down to see the Mega Gyarados, its body shimmering with water, winding its way upwards like a long dragon, rapidly approaching it.

Waterfall climbing in a water system!
"thunder!"

Nidoking crackled with intense lightning, and a bolt of lightning shot straight toward Mega Gyarados.

boom!
The thunderbolt hit completely, but Mega Gyarados only paused briefly before enduring the thunder's impact and continuing to approach Nidoking.

boom!
The thunderous waterfall crashed heavily onto King Nido.

Nidoking roared in pain as his powerful body was slammed away by Mega Gyarados.

This attack dealt significant damage.

The Mega Gyarados, which had just knocked Nidoking away and was about to give chase, paused again, and a terrifying, deep purple light shone on its body.

The second wave of highly toxic corrosion has arrived!

This time the poison attack was even more intense than the first time, but the Gyarados that A-Du raised was indeed incredibly resilient.

He was only affected by the excruciating pain from the poison for a moment, and then he roared with a ferocious expression, as if he was 'venting' his pain through this roar.

"The Tail of Water!"

The Gyarados had an extremely ferocious and terrifying appearance, giving Nidoking no chance to adjust, and launched another charge at Nidoking.

This ferocious attack put Nidoking under immense pressure.

“King Nidoran won’t be able to hold on like this.”

Serena kept her eyes glued to the battle on the field and made her own judgment.

This Gyarados is incredibly powerful; its combat strength is simply astonishing.

Nidoking's strength was on full display in its battle against Lorelei and the others. However, even such a powerful Nidoking was almost overwhelmed by the attacks of this Mega Gyarados.

It can be seen.

Dragon Messenger Awatari has always been hailed as the strongest champion of the Kanto Alliance, and his strength is indeed terrifying.

"Yes, but Uncle Sakaki can stall for time. A battle isn't just about pure combat strength."

Prantina nodded, though she was naturally on Sakaki's side.

After all... Sakaki is Mr. Mammon's father and the future grandfather of her child.

The battle on the field continued. Giovanni calmly instructed Nidoking to dodge and defend, but Mega Gyarados's ferocious attacks were too overwhelming.

"Nidoking is unable to battle, Mega Gyarados wins."

The referee announced the result of the battle.

That's right, Nidoking ultimately fell to Mega Gyarados's Water Tail.

"See that? Giovanni, if you can only resort to petty tricks, you can't defeat my dragon!"

Awa's eyes were fixed on Sakaki, her tone cold and arrogant.

"Champion Wataru, this is an all-out battle, there's no need to be so impatient. Our battle is not over yet."

Giovanni slowly recalled Nidoking and replied with a faint smile.

Although Nidoking failed, Giovanni didn't think it was a problem, and he felt that Nidoking had done a very good job.

In a battle involving all players, a small loss is nothing, especially since the current situation is entirely within expectations.

"Only the person who wins in the end is the winner, right?"

Giovanni threw his second Poké Ball, and Nidoran landed in front of him.

"You guy."

A-Du frowned slightly; he didn't like Sakaki's tone and attitude of having everything under control.

After thinking for a moment, A-Du recalled Mega Gyarados.

Mega Gyarados wasn't in great shape either, especially after the battle with Nidoking, where it had already used its Poisonous Erosion technique for the fourth time.

Recalling the Mega Gyarados would at least temporarily reset the poison's effects, otherwise the fifth poison attack would already be quite severe.

"Since you're so confident, then come and test its power!"

A-Lun stylishly threw out his second Poké Ball.

"Kuailong!"

A flash of white light, and a plump, orange-yellow dragon flapped its two small wings and landed heavily in front of Adu.

"Wo~!"

Upon seeing this Pokémon appear, the entire venue erupted in enthusiastic cheers.

Because this Pokémon is none other than the pseudo-legendary Dragonite from the Kanto region!
Dragonite is Lance's signature Pokémon!
"Dragonite..."

Sakaki narrowed his eyes slightly, scrutinizing the Dragonite with its deep aura.

"Wait, are we letting Dragonite make its appearance so soon?"

In the audience, Prantina looked at the Kanto region's pseudo-god with great astonishment.

She was a little confused! This was an all-out battle! The first one evolved into Mega Evolution, and the second one was Dragonite?

Wait, is this how Watari Champion plays all-out battles? He reveals all his cards right from the start, aiming to crush his opponent in a short time?

But Uncle Sakaki is no ordinary opponent; doing things this way could easily put you on the defensive.

Will Wataru really play an all-out battle?

"Don't be so surprised, this isn't Lance's ace Dragonite."

Mammon clicked his tongue softly and replied to Plantina.

"Eh?"

Upon hearing this, Prantina and Serena were taken aback.

“This Dragonite is strong, but it’s definitely not Lance’s ace,” Mammon said with certainty.

"It is said that when Lance reached the top of the Kanto League, his championship team consisted of Dragonair, Dragonair, Gyarados, Aerodactyl, Charizard, and Dragonite."

Cattleya spoke thoughtfully.

"So, Champion Lance evolved those two Dragonite." Serena understood.

“I’m afraid not.” Mammon shook his head.

"Adu's Dragonair, he probably didn't evolve on purpose. As for this Dragonite, do you know? The most famous Dwarf's habitat in the Kanto region, Dragon's Lair, belongs to the Dragon Family."

Mammon said with a smile.

That's right, it's the Dragon's Lair in Smoky City, known as the 'Land of Dragons,' which is the most famous habitat for Dratini in the Kanto region.

As for Lance, he can lack anything but Dragonite!
Moreover, Lance has an extraordinary fondness for Dragonite, so it's not surprising that his team has multiple Dragonite.

For example, in HeartGold SoulSilver, the champion Lance's team has three Dragonite.

Lance is an extremely obese enthusiast. For Lance, Dragonite is his pride and his soul!
"I don't know if this is Dragonite Unit 2 or Unit 3."

Mammon watched the fast dragon on the field with great interest, but one thing was certain: it wasn't even the ace fast dragon.

Lance's Dragonite strength is absolutely undeniable.

Dragonite's base strength is undeniable, especially considering this is Lance's Dragonite.

After all, probably no one in the world understands Dragonite better than Lance.

The battle continued. A-Du's fighting style was extremely fierce, after all, he believed in the power of dragons, and offense was the best defense.

Therefore, A-du highly values ​​offense.

Sakaki, on the other hand, is steady and mature, but his composure also carries a fierce edge.

Under Lance's command, Dragonite began a frenzied attack; however, this Dragonite's suppressive power was actually no match for Mega Gyarados.

After Giovanni used a defensive counterattack, he found an opportunity to hit Dragonite with Ice Beam.

It's important to know that while Dragonite is powerful, its Dragon + Flying typing makes it four times weak to Ice!
This is Dragonite's biggest fatal flaw.

Although the Ice Beam didn't hit completely because Dragonite reacted quickly, it still dealt significant damage to Dragonite.

This made Adu more restrained and start to become a little more steady.

But after a fierce final battle, Giovanni deliberately created an opening, allowing Dragonite to use Dragon Rush to close the distance, followed by Nidoran's Ice Punch.

Nidoran was severely injured, and Dragonite was unable to battle!

Sakaki has temporarily turned the tide, but this is only the beginning.

Lance then switched to a Giga Gyarados that had been poisoned and defeated Nidoran.

Giovanni then brought out Dugtrio, while Lance switched to Charizard.

Charizard lost, Diglett won.

Avalanche then sent out Mega Gyarados, resulting in a one-for-one trade with Dugtrio.

The intensity of the battle far exceeded expectations, with neither side willing to give an inch, but overall, the situation remained completely even.

Giovanni's fourth Pokémon is Rhyperior, which is also a mainstay of Giovanni's team and is exceptionally strong.

After thinking for a moment, Lance sent out another Dragonite, this time his second Dragonite.

This time, Lance chose to take advantage of Dragonite's flight ability. Rhyperior is very powerful, but Rhyperior is heavy, slow, and has low special defense.

This move took quite a while, but in the end, Rhyperior fell to Dragonite's Water Cannon.

The situation has shifted to Awatari taking the lead once again.

But now everyone understands that Sakaki's strength is no weaker than Wataru's, and they cannot afford to be careless until the very last moment.

"I never expected that Sakaki's strength would reach this level."

Backstage, Kona's cold and beautiful brows were furrowed. After fighting for so long, Giovanni and Wataru were still evenly matched.

If this were in the past, who would believe that Giovanni, a mere gym leader, was on the same level as Lance?

However, the facts are now right in front of us.

"It is indeed amazing. I don't know why Sakaki had to hide his strength before."

Kikuko narrowed her cloudy eyes, but upon closer reflection, it seemed that Sakaki hadn't been hiding his strength either.
It's just that no one can force Giovanni to fully unleash his power. If he's not interested in the Challenge League, and it's just some gym challengers, of course, they can't make Giovanni go all out.

“No wonder he could give birth to a monster like Mammon, it’s not surprising.” Kikuko chuckled softly.

With such a powerful father, it's really not surprising that Mammon is exceptionally talented.

And at this moment on the field.

"As expected of Champion Wataru, you are indeed powerful."

Having recalled the Super Armored Rhinoceros that had lost its combat capabilities, Giovanni couldn't help but chuckle.

"You're not bad either."

Awatari said calmly, "After fighting for so long, putting everything else aside, I acknowledge Sakaki's strength."

"Oh? To be recognized by Champion Watari is truly an honor." Sakaki's lips slowly curled up.

"However, since I have already taken on the King of Kings challenge today, I am naturally aiming for the championship."

"If you're so capable, then come and defeat me."

Adu's cold eyes remained unchanged.

The championship title has always been awarded to the strongest. If Giovanni can defeat him, Giovanni will naturally be the champion.

"That's really in line with your personality, A-Du."

A deep malice was evident on Sakaki's dark face.

"You wanted to see my super evolution, didn't you? Well, here I'll show you!"

Giovanni threw his fifth Poké Ball.

The Poké Ball opened in mid-air, a flash of white light, and a sound of insect wings flapping quickly swept across the sky.

Finally, it slowly landed in front of Giovanni, holding up its two needles and staring at the Dragonite in front of Lance.

The entire audience erupted in uproar, and countless people wore expressions of astonishment.

Because Giovanni's fifth Pokémon was... a Beedrill?!
