Pokémon: Simultaneous time travel, this Ash is too versatile!

Chapter 161 Mega Evolution! The Dark Queen Mega Gardevoir!
"What do you mean by saying that the method to defeat A-Ju can't be reproduced?" Blaine caught the information in Ash's words.

"It means exactly what it says, Blade. Didn't you watch the recording of that match? My Bulbasaur only managed to activate its power at the end because of the power of Victini, the goddess of victory. I don't usually have that ability," Ash shrugged.

“Victory God Victini… I really didn’t pay attention. I only watched the video of your fight with Aju. I didn’t look at what happened after the fight.” Blaine shook his head, indicating that he only watched the video of the fight.

At that time, he wondered why Ash's Bulbasaur was so powerful. He wondered if it had been boosted by some special method. Not only Bulbasaur, but also Pikachu and Charizard were boosted in an unbelievable way!

But Bulbasaur's price increase was the most exaggerated. He racked his brains but couldn't figure out what was going on. So the answer was revealed in the battle video?
It seems he needs to change his habit of watching the battle footage and then immediately turning off the video, as this results in incomplete information gathering.

Blaine silently made a mental note of it and then looked at Ash with a serious expression, saying, "I understand the situation, but I still insist that you have a three-on-three Elite Four battle with me, and it has to be a full-force battle, because only in this way can you prove that you have the strength to protect Gardevoir."

"Protect what Gardevoir? Ash, your Gardevoir? What happened to her? Why do you need to protect her?" Gary, who had just arrived, immediately bombarded him with a million questions, completely unaware of the intricacies involved.

Including the real reason Blaine was hiding, and the so-called Mewtwo, all he knew was that Ash repeatedly told him not to reveal Blaine's location, and that he could only come alone.

Although he found it strange, Gary came alone because he trusted Ash. He certainly wouldn't have come so unguarded if it were anyone else.

"Da Mu's grandson, you shouldn't bother with this matter. The fewer people who know about it, the better. If you understand, then listen; if you don't, then shut your mouth and watch from the sidelines." Xia Bo's calm words dealt a heavy blow to Xiao Mao!
"What do you mean 'Grandson of Oki'? I have a name, my name is Oki Shigeru!!"

"I know about Damu's grandson."

Xiaomao:......

"What you mean by protecting Gardevoir is something we only do when Gardevoir is in danger. At that time, I won't care about any Pokémon battle rules and will do everything in my power to protect her. You don't need to worry about that," Ash explained to Blaine after learning the real reason why Blaine requested the Elite Four battle.

However, this explanation only confused Xia Bo: "What do you mean by not respecting the rules? Do you have some tricks that can't be used in a regular battle?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, Blaine, that I'm a special ability user. Although I'm human, my combat power is currently the highest in the team," Ash said, head held high and chest puffed out with a hint of pride.

For a human to reach this level, he certainly has reason to be proud, because this is a level that even the world's strongest trainers' Pokémon might not be able to reach. Although he achieved it by 'cheating', existence is its own justification. Just tell me if he has the strength or not!
"Special ability user? The team's strongest fighter?" Upon hearing this, Blaine's face lit up with interest, and he continued, "Since you put it that way, let's make this battle a little special. A three-on-three battle against the Three Kings, with trainers allowed to participate. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, a strange expression appeared on Xiao Zhi's face.

Let him play? Are you serious? I'm not bragging, but all of Blaine's Pokémon combined probably wouldn't be enough to withstand one of his Aura Spheres.

Do you even know what it means for a mortal to possess a wave-guiding power comparable to that of a god?

Blaine didn't know what his words meant, and he continued, "Actually, in a real life-or-death battle, how a trainer protects himself is also a crucial factor. If your special ability can really reach the level of an Elite Four member, then even if we lose this battle, I will give you the same terms as if we won."

This basically means that if Ash himself possesses Champion-level strength, then even if Ash's Pokémon strength is somewhat lacking, Blaine would agree to let Ash continue to carry Gardevoir.

If Ash were to be targeted, he himself would be the biggest weakness. Although Gardevoir is currently weak, it is still a Psychic-type Pokémon!

If it wants to run away, unless there are prior precautions, it's really hard to stop it. Even if Mewtwo is a Psychic-type Pokémon, it's still difficult to stop it.

So as long as Ash can withstand the pressure, even if his Pokémon's strength is a little lacking, it's not impossible to make some adjustments.

"Alright, let's go then, three against three, Elite Four members." Ash cracked his knuckles, a sunny smile spreading across his face, while Pikachu at his feet was already shaking its head and sighing.

Another victim is about to appear, and you have no idea what it means to have Ash Ketchum personally take the field.

……

Blaine went to the other side of the battle arena, then took out his first Poké Ball and began to explain the complete rules: "The rules of the match are three against three, there are no restrictions on the level of the Pokémon, and trainers can enter the battle themselves, but they will replace one of their own Pokémon."

"Also, this is a semi-rule-free match, so even as the Gym Leader, I can rotate my Pokémon. No objections, right?"

Besides removing level restrictions, even rotation restrictions are going to be lifted. Blaine is really going all out. For this, what does pride matter? He's giving it all away!

A major reason why Ash was able to defeat Kikyo, besides his cheating at the end, was that Kikyo couldn't switch Pokémon. If Kikyo could switch Pokémon, Charizard wouldn't be able to handle Toxicroak, as long as he switched to Arbok.

Blaine had clearly studied the video and knew that Ash's Pokémon couldn't sustain a prolonged battle after their power was increased. For Ash, switching Pokémon was the biggest tactical blow.

That's why he lifted the rotation restrictions here.

However, Ash didn't really care. "You've already let me play, so I'll let you rotate. Let's all play fairly and justly."

"no problem."

"Alright, as the gym leader, I'll send out my Pokémon first. Consider this a special treatment for you."

Ash's lips twitched: "Sabber, you don't have to say something like this just to save face. If it's really necessary, I can go first." Hearing this, Sabber coughed awkwardly and then threw the Poké Ball in his hand.

With a flash of light, a golden spirit appeared on the field—Nine-Tails!
The Nine-Tails, the evolved form of the Six-Tails, is a fox-like creature with golden fur and crimson eyes. It looks elegant and noble. It is said that the Nine-Tails can live for thousands of years, but in reality, it seems that no Nine-Tails has ever lived that long.

Ash glanced at Ninetales' information: it was a mid-level Elite Four member, and all its stats were A-rank, almost on par with the Pokémon that Kikyo had trained.

This is a Champion Trainer. In addition to being far superior to ordinary Trainers in terms of level, they are also meticulous in training their stats.

Ash has seen many high-level Pokémon with very low stats along the way. The highest he has ever trained is only B-rank. Only the Elite Four members have managed to raise their rank without losing any stats.

This might also be related to the King's advancement.

If the first Pokémon is at the intermediate level of Elite Four, then the second one will be at the advanced level of Elite Four, and the last one will be at the peak level of Elite Four.

It seems that Blaine wanted to test his strength gradually, and did not send out his strongest Pokémon at the beginning. This also shows that Blaine may be better than Kikko in terms of Elite Four skills.

"The first one is Ninetales... Well then, I choose you, Gardevoir!" Ash threw out a Poké Ball, and an elegant queen with blue hair appeared on the field.

"So you've sent Gardevoir already? But your Gardevoir is only at the professional level. Based on my understanding of your power-boosting moves, you should only be able to raise Gardevoir to the gym level, right? Unless Gardevoir reaches its peak professional level, you won't be able to raise its level to Elite Four." Blaine said with great confidence.

Ash had already firmly grasped all the information about himself. Although the strange method of improvement was outrageous, it was ultimately impossible to raise Ash's Pokémon to the level of an Elite Four member due to the limitations of Ash's Pokémon's level.

Charizard was able to defeat Toxicroak in that match mainly due to its special flames, while Pikachu was able to defeat Arbok thanks to its unpredictable moves.

He also knew Gardevoir's special feature, which was the ability to transform into anything and learn any move, but this required a powerful move for Gardevoir to learn.

Having more moves doesn't necessarily mean you're stronger. Having more moves only means you have a wider range of attacks. To defeat a powerful enemy, you still need a decisive move. Therefore, Gardevoir's numerous moves are useless against Nine-Tails.

"Who knows! (Solvakana!)" Ash took a rainbow-colored gem out of his pocket and held it high in the sky: "Gardevoir, show your true form, Mega Evolution!!"

Blaine: ? ? ?
What is it? What kind of evolution?
Before Blaine could ask, Gardevoir had already spread her arms, and a huge gem emerged from her body, then shone with a dazzling light that enveloped Gardevoir's entire body, and Gardevoir began to change!
The dazzling light did not last long; a moment later, Gardevoir's new form appeared before everyone.

The originally snow-white long dress turned pure black, and her hands also seemed to be wearing two black gloves, giving people a deep and mysterious feeling.

The new Gardevoir has an elegant yet eerie appearance, like a fairy floating in the snow, giving off a cool and mysterious vibe.

This is Gardevoir's next evolution, Mega Gardevoir!
The Mega Stone I obtained in Mystery Garden was Gardevoir's evolution stone. After evolving, Gardevoir is more like a queen than its original form, exuding a queenly majesty and giving people a sense of inviolability.

Blaine, Misty, and the others were completely stunned. Seriously, what is that?! How can Gardevoir evolve further? This is way too much!

Normally, if you hide some moves, special abilities, or strength, my buddy won't say anything, but what's with hiding an evolution technique?
"Why can Gardevoir evolve again after its final evolution?" Gary was the first to lose his composure and shouted out, his words filled with disbelief.

It's no wonder Gary acted this way; anyone in the Pokémon world who knows Gardevoir would want to ask why after seeing this scene! Why?!
Blaine even took off his sunglasses and rubbed his eyes carefully, thinking he was hallucinating, but the black and white Gardevoir standing in front of him proved that it was not a hallucination.

Gardevoir has truly evolved! And in a form never before seen before!
While everyone was in shock, Ash did not take the opportunity to attack his opponent.

What a joke! This is the first time Mega Evolution has been revealed. It's going to dazzle them. If they start fighting right away, they won't even have time to be shocked. How will he be able to see the expressions on Xiaoxia's and Blaine's faces?

He, Xiaozhi, is fifteen years old, the age when he likes to show off!
Even though I've become much more mature after being taught by the experts in the group, it's hard to change my nature at this age—I love to pretend! It would be stupid not to pretend if I had the chance!

"MEGA evolution... an evolution that takes the final evolved Pokémon to the next level. Is this the effect of those two orbs you mentioned, Ash?" After several tens of seconds, Blaine finally calmed down and asked Ash, barely suppressing her shock.

Just now, he saw the bead that appeared in front of Gardevoir for a moment, and it looked very similar to the two beads in his hand!

Considering Ash's earlier statement that he knew the effects of those two orbs, it's almost certain that Gardevoir's next evolution will rely on that item.

"Pretty much. I call that thing the MEGA Stone, and Gardevoir's evolution is called MEGA Evolution! It means Mega Evolution, because it allows a Pokémon to evolve to an even higher level in its final form, giving it a qualitative leap on top of its already formidable abilities," Ash said calmly.

Well, he appeared calm on the surface, but seeing everyone's expressions, he was practically bursting with excitement inside. That's the benefit of having information and being prescient!
He even named the evolution, he must be so incredibly happy!

Blaine didn't pay attention to Ash's forced calm expression, but instead began to ponder and plan deeply in her mind.

If this evolution allows the Pokémon to evolve to an even higher level in its final evolution, then its significance will be extraordinary.

Why are pseudo-legendary Pokémon so powerful? Why are they called pseudo-legendary? It's because after their final evolution, they possess racial stats far exceeding those of other Pokémon. At the same level and with the same stats, pseudo-legendary Pokémon are generally a level above other Pokémon in terms of strength.

But if a Pokémon can undergo four stages of evolution, then the situation is different...
