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

Chapter 275 Mega Lucario vs. Mega Blastoise, Flying Thunder God Rasengan!

Umbreon was hit on the head by Brick Break and crashed to the ground with a loud bang.

Lucario landed lightly from the sky, returning to the field almost without making a sound, a stark contrast to Umbreon's descent.

As the dust settled on the field, the lying-on-its-side Umbreon appeared before everyone.

"Umbreon is unable to battle, Lucario wins!" Unsurprisingly, Umbreon, which was directly hit by Brick Break, was unable to battle. Even though Umbreon's defense is quite good, its level is far too different from Lucario's.

First, he was hit by the speed of lightning, and then he was hit by the full power of the tile-breaking attack. Even if he were only a beginner or an advanced player, he would not be able to block these two attacks.

Gary recalled Umbreon and then released his next Pokémon, Gyarados!
The level was still at the beginner level. Although it had a type advantage over Lucario, the level was too low to be effective. Lucario used Extreme Speed ​​and sent the opponent flying into the wall above the arena stands.

This attack showed no mercy, as Ash was also preparing to end the battle.

Gary has already used his strongest Pokémon before, and the Pokémon he is using now are not even in the same league as before. His Lucario is not even at the level of a Forsaken.

In a match with such a large disparity in skill, Ash's goal is simply to end it as quickly as possible.

However, Gary didn't use up all his powerful Pokémon; he kept one last one, his trump card.

"Hiss... Huff..." Xiao Mao took a deep breath, put the Gyarados Poké Ball back on his waist, and then took out his last Poké Ball.

"This is the last one... Please, Blastoise!!" With a flash of light, Gary's strongest and last Pokémon appeared on the field—Blastoise!
Gary's Blastoise is undeniably strong. In previous battles, it even broke through to become a Gym Leader level Pokémon, making it the only Gym Leader level Pokémon in Gary's possession. It can also Mega Evolve.

If we're talking about any Pokémon that Gary has that can rival Ash's main team, then Blastoise is definitely the only one.

"Here it comes, Blastoise." Ash's expression turned serious when he saw Blastoise appear. This opponent was different from the previous ones. It was not something Lucario could easily defeat. Even after Mega Evolution, Lucario would still be quite troublesome to deal with, given its current strength.

"Come on, Ash, in this final battle, I will defeat your Lucario!" Gary said he would defeat Lucario, not Ash. His goal was clear: to defeat one more of Ash's Pokémon!

Furthermore, if even Lucario, who once slew gods, has been defeated, regardless of whether Lucario is as powerful as it once was, then you can say that it has been defeated!
That would definitely boost Xiao Mao's confidence significantly, greatly helping him in the upcoming third-place match and his future development. Therefore, this final match is not an insignificant or meaningless duel; he must win!

"Blastoise Mega Evolve!!" Gary raised his arm, and the rainbow gem in the bracelet on his wrist shone with an extremely dazzling light. A Mega Stone appeared on Blastoise's body, allowing Blastoise to evolve right at the start of the battle!
Like Dynamax, Mega Evolution is a move that's best used as early as possible. After Dynamaxing, a Pokémon's HP increases exponentially, which means that its damage resistance undergoes a qualitative leap.

Mega Evolution, on the other hand, means that after evolving, the state will not disappear for a short period of time as long as you don't want it to, even if you put it back into a Poké Ball. In addition, the stats will be improved after evolution, so Mega Evolution is the best choice to start with.

As the light on Blastoise gradually faded, Mega Blastoise reappeared before the eyes of many viewers. Despite having seen it many times before, many people were still amazed by the wonder of Mega Evolution.

What other system besides MEGA evolution can achieve this, allowing Pokémon to briefly evolve, break through their limits, and comprehensively enhance their power, which is also very beneficial for future level breakthroughs?
That's why there's already a lot of hype online about this yet-to-be-announced Mega Evolution. Even though Ash hasn't released any information about it, a ton of data about Mega Evolution has appeared online.

As for how much of it is true or false, only Ash and the Elite Four probably know.

"Blastoise's Mega Evolution! Let's do it too, Lucario!" Ash shouted at Lucario, raising his arm high. On his wrist was a Mega Bracelet containing a Key Stone!
Previously, because Mega Evolution had not been officially announced, Ash did not wear such an eye-catching bracelet. He even took out the Key Stone directly from his sleeve to Mega Evolve Blastoise for the first time.

Now that everyone is quite used to Mega Evolution, Ash took out his Key Stone and proudly placed it on his wrist.

As Ash shouted, a Mega Stone appeared on Lucario's body. Then, Lucario's body shone with brilliant light, and to the astonishment of those around, Lucario revealed a brand new form!
The evolved Lucario has more black stripes on its surface, more hair on the back of its head, darker skin, and red feet.

The milky-white fur on its body became longer, its thighs became thinner, and more sharp spines grew on the backs of its hands and soles of its feet.

Compared to the original Lucario, the Mega Evolution Lucario has a more slender body and looks more majestic!

The surrounding audience had become somewhat numb; Ash Ketchum was constantly challenging their values ​​and overturning their common sense.

Following Blastoise and Gardevoir, another Pokémon capable of Mega Evolution has appeared, and it's the already rare and cool Lucario.

The evolved Lucario not only looks much cooler, but also has a much stronger presence than before.

That being said, although Ash is the discoverer of Mega Evolution, he has a lot of Pokémon that can Mega Evolve!

Moreover, there are so many Pokémon that can Mega Evolve, so why haven't those professors and researchers discovered a single one? Ash, on the other hand, has one Mega Evolution Pokémon after another, and you never know if Ash's next Pokémon will be able to Mega Evolve.

This is what shocked the audience: how did Ash have other Mega Evolution Pokémon?
When Daigo saw the Mega Evolution Lucario, his heart was bleeding. Who knew if the Mega Stone had been taken from him? The main problem was that when Lucario evolved, there was a light shining around it, making it impossible to see what color the Mega Stone was.

That's why Daigo couldn't figure it out, but whether he figured it out or not doesn't really matter, since he has lost five Mega Stones and three Key Stones, that's undeniable.

As long as the evolution stones he sends out don't include Metagross's Mega Evolution Stone, then it doesn't matter.

...The city of Eurdran—

Queen Irene was in her room watching the live broadcast of the Quartz Convention on TV. Although they lived in a secluded paradise, their technology was still up-to-date, with televisions and the latest smartphones readily available.

Erin usually doesn't watch the Indigo League tournaments, since those beginner-level competitions aren't very interesting. But this year's Indigo League is different; Ash is participating.

If we're talking about the first person to recognize Ash's potential and know that he was destined for greatness and brilliance, then Irene is definitely one of them.

Because Ash successfully awakened and saved the Pokémon egg, the meaning of that Pokémon egg in Ordron City is extraordinary, because it may be the descendant of the hero Lucario!
Putting aside the fact that the Pokémon egg was already on the verge of death, even under normal circumstances, no one could hatch it. Therefore, Ash, who was able to hatch the Pokémon egg, must have something in common with the hero Aaron back then.

Perhaps he will be the next generation of... Wave Guide Hero.

Coupled with that mysterious prophecy, Erin became even more concerned about Ash's movements.

Ash did not disappoint Irene's expectations and grew rapidly in a very short time. However, while Ash's fame was rising, there was no news about his Riolu, and it had never even been battled in public.

This caused some people in Ordron City to worry. Had Riolu been neglected by Ash? Or perhaps, Riolu's talent hadn't fully returned, leading Ash to dislike it...?

Suspicion arose in Ordron City, but Irene never doubted Ash's attitude toward Riolu or his love for Pokémon.

It was because she learned through various channels how much Ash loved Pokémon that she was willing to entrust Riolu to him with peace of mind.

And finally today, she saw Riolu after he grew up. He had evolved into Lucario, and under the spotlight, he evolved once again, becoming a form never before seen!
"Is this Lucario's Mega Evolution? It looks quite similar to the image in that picture. So that picture was what Lucario's Mega Evolution would look like!" Thus, the image in the last picture was revealed.

Why does Lucario look different in the last picture compared to its original form? It turns out that Mew has foreshadowed the future emergence of the power of Mega Evolution.

Furthermore, Riolu will gain this power and successfully reach a higher level of form.

But for some reason, Erin always felt that although Mega Evolution Riolu was nine-tenths similar to that picture, there were still some differences.

If it were just a normal scene, Erin would definitely think that it was because so much time had passed that her memory would be a little blurry, which is normal. The reason why Super Lucario seemed different from the scene of the foreseeing the future might just be her imagination.

But the images that the dream had conjured were almost etched into her mind, impossible to erase.

Otherwise, Eileen wouldn't have noticed that some details were problematic.

However, since there were only some minor differences, Erin didn't pay too much attention to them. What she was thinking about now was when she could actually see Lucario in person, instead of just seeing him on TV like she was doing now.

Everyone in the city of Ordron, including her, had a deep-seated obsession with Lucario. It wasn't about wanting to see Lucario for anything specific; they simply wanted to meet him.

Perhaps there will be an opportunity after the Indigo League. I'll ask Professor Sakuragi to invite Ash and the others to come to Ordron City for a visit, and they can do some sightseeing while they're at it,' Irene thought to herself.

……

On the field, Lucario and Blastoise, having completed their Mega Evolution, locked eyes, and a battle was about to erupt between them. For Gary, this was the final battle; for Lucario, it was a battle he could not afford to lose. If he lost here, how could he become the strongest? So... he had to win!

Blastoise, Water Pulse!

"Lucario, wave missile!"

Both sides launched their attacks almost simultaneously. Blastoise's three cannons simultaneously erupted with jets of azure water, while Lucario placed its hands on its waist and instantly formed a deep blue Aura Sphere, which was then blasted out!

"Boom!!" The Water Wave and the Wave Missile collided in the middle of the arena, creating a violent roar. The turbulent energy in the center of the arena stirred up waves of air, sending surrounding debris flying everywhere.

The blue water curtain and the deep blue light wave were locked in a stalemate for a full three seconds. Finally, the water column of the wave visibly overwhelmed the halo of the wave missile little by little.

"Crack—" Cracks appeared on the surface of the wave missile, which then disintegrated into tiny energy particles.

The remaining water ripples continued their momentum, rushing straight towards Lucario behind them.

In a head-on collision, Lucario's Aura Sphere actually lost to Blastoise's Water Pulse? Brock and Misty had this question on their minds almost simultaneously.

To be honest, Ash's Pokémon wouldn't lose to any other Pokémon in a head-on confrontation at the same level, let alone Lucario, which is now Mega Evolved and uses its signature Aura Sphere. How could it possibly lose to Water Pulse? Not even the Mega Launcher ability could stop it!

Water Pulse passed through the Aura Sphere and hit Lucario directly. However, the scene that Gary had imagined—Lucario being knocked away—did not happen. The Water Pulse even passed through Lucario's body!

That's powerful? Lucario was even pierced through? This was Gary's first thought, but he quickly realized something was wrong. It wasn't that Water Pulse was powerful; it was that Lucario wasn't its true form, but rather an afterimage!
The next instant, Lucario appeared behind Blastoise, wielding an Aura Sphere in one hand, and slammed it hard into Mega Blastoise's hard shell!
