Pokémon: Ash the New Generation, Starting from Sinnoh

"Me too, let's enjoy this battle together!"

Hikaru and Haruka gazed at each other, their beautiful eyes revealing a burning passion.

"Yes, yes, let's start fighting!"

The scene before him made Xiao Wang cover his mouth and chuckle, gesturing with his hands as if he really wanted to see a fierce battle.

Neither of them noticed Xiao Wang's unusual behavior. Instead, they slowly walked towards the stage after the host, Bai An, announced it.

"Dear audience, the Mikkuri Cup is coming to an end. Let's welcome Hoenn dancer May and coordinator Hikari, who just debuted this year!"

Amidst the enthusiastic welcome from Bai An and the audience, Xiao Guang and Xiao Yao stood on opposite sides of the stage, gazing at each other.

"Hey, Ash, who do you think will win this time?"

Looking at the two people staring at each other on the stage, Xiao Gang used "I'm not hungry" to nuzzle Xiao Zhi, and even revealed a meaningful smile.

Between the two acquaintances, Xiao Gang was eager to see what judgment Xiao Zhi would make at this moment.

"I hope they both win!" Xiao Zhi responded deftly to the gossipy Xiao Gang.

"But there will always be a winner between the two of them~" Xiao Gang pressed on relentlessly, and continued to ask, "Let's put it this way, who do you think has a higher chance of winning!"

"Xiaoguang!"

Knowing that he couldn't remain silent, Xiaozhi promptly offered an answer.

"Oh, Ash, how did you figure that out?" Brock squinted and his eyes flashed slightly, as if he had seen a major drama unfold.

"Intuition~"

"..."

This answer left Xiao Gang speechless, and he looked at the stage with some regret.

Seeing that Xiao Gang finally stopped questioning him, Xiao Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, I couldn't help but secretly marvel that the attribute of gossip has nothing to do with gender.

There wasn't much time for reflection, because the battle on stage had already begun.

"Bogarman, make your charismatic entrance!"

To deal with the formidable opponent, Haruka, Hikari's team dispatched the veteran Pogaman.

"Glass Eevee, step onto the stage!"

Meanwhile, May's team unexpectedly produced a Glaceon.

"Huh, they're sending out Glaceon already?" Brock exclaimed softly. "Are they trying to turn this into Glaceon's debut battle?"

"Is Xiaoyao being a bit too arrogant?" A familiar scene made Xiaozhi sigh inwardly.

Although Glaceon, under May's tutelage, has become as strong and performer-worthy as other players, Dawn has good talent.

Even though he's still relatively inexperienced, the Pokémon he's paired with is his old partner Piplup, which is much stronger than the newcomer Glaceon.

"Bogarman, Bubble Ray~"

On stage, facing his strongest opponent ever, Hikaru had no time to think and launched an attack with utmost seriousness.

"Boga~"

Bogarman spun around and unleashed a bubble beam attack, utilizing the results of his training to deliver a spiraling bubble attack.

"Secret power~" Haruka calmly commanded.

Even though it was Glaceon's first time participating in a Grand Contest, it wasn't intimidated. With a gentle push of its legs, it easily dodged the Bubble Beam.

At the same time, it quickly approached the location of Piplup, its entire body glowing white, and slammed into the opponent.

"Bogarman spin to avoid it~"

Seeing this, Xiao Guang quickly instructed Bogaman to use their usual training methods to avoid the situation.

"Boga~"

Piplup successfully dodged the attack in the first half by using the vortex generated by Glaceon's blast, but still accidentally grazed Glaceon's body.

Although it wasn't a major problem, because the mysterious power had a paralyzing effect on the building, Bogarman felt a dense, tingling sensation all over his body.

"Great opportunity, Glaceon, Ice Shard!" The observant May noticed this and immediately shouted.

"Bogarman, jump into the water!"

As chunks of ice hurtled toward Piplup, Hikari noticed the surrounding pool and prepared to let Piplup use the terrain to its advantage to avoid the attack.

puff~

With a splash, I slowly dragged my somewhat numb body underwater to avoid being hit by the dense ice pellets.

Gudong~

When Bogarman emerged from the water again, his entire body was completely transformed, and the golden numbness that had been there had disappeared.

By using the water terrain to dodge attacks and remove her paralysis in time, Hikaru successfully caused Haruka to lose a portion of her performance points.

"Okay, Bogaman, Chaoxuan!"

This scene made Xiaoguang clench his fists and launch another attack.

Piplup powerfully summoned a vortex, and with a gentle wave of its two short arms, it moved towards Glaceon.

"We'll accept this Whirlpool!" A smile played on May's lips as she faced the Water Whirlpool. "Glaceon, Mirror Reflect!"

Glaceon's body shimmered like a mirror as it charged towards the whirlpool, successfully withstanding the water vortex and rebounding back.

May successfully turned the tide by showcasing Glaceon's charm.

"Bogaman, just bear with it!"

Piplup was in the middle of the vortex, his entire body curled up into a ball, emitting a dazzling white light, gathering power to prepare for a counterattack.

"Freezing light!"

May's Glaceon instantly unleashed an icy blue beam, preparing to violently interrupt Piplup's actions.

In response, Hikari had no choice but to tell Piplup to stop holding back and release the energy it had been holding back, barely managing to fight the Ice Beam to a draw.

However, seemingly because the Tide Whirl was doubled by the reflection from the mirror, after Piplup's Endurance negated the Ice Beam, a small portion still hit Glaceon.

"That's really amazing!" May exclaimed as she saw Glaceon unexpectedly defeated by Shinobu. "Glaceon, Ice Shard!"

But what followed was a dense mass of ice pebbles.

"Pecking at the drill~"

Bogarman unleashed an enhanced pecking attack from his sharp beak, instantly transforming ice shards into shimmering ice crystals that accentuated his figure in the dazzling sunlight.

However, after Piplup withstood the ice shard attack, Glaceon spun around and launched a fast Shadow Ball that flew towards Piplup at high speed.

"Hikaru, it looks like I'm going to win!" Haruka smiled.

Piplup, suspended in mid-air, will inevitably be unable to dodge the Shadow Ball. Once hit, followed by a Freeze Beam, victory will be practically assured.

"Bogarman, spin around and unleash Bubble Beam!" Hikari shouted sweetly.

As things turned out, things didn't go as Haruka had hoped. Piplup spun around and, unable to dodge in mid-air, unleashed a defensive bubble beam.

It blocks Ice Beam from reaching Glaceon.

"What?" Xiaoyao was shocked, she never expected it to be like this.

"An outstanding performance! It actually made the bubble beam achieve a defensive effect!" Mikuri couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Bogaman, Chaoxuan!"

"Gladiator, use Mirror Reflect!"

With little time remaining, both unleashed their final clash of skills. The massive Water Whirlpool collided with Glaceon's Mirror Reflection, and after a brief stalemate, they retreated from each other.

Hey~

When time ran out, the difference in their performances became clear, with Xiao Guang slightly ahead and winning the championship.

-

Well, there's a lot going on since it's the start of the semester.

It's not just about studying; there are also all sorts of miscellaneous things happening in class, and little activities among roommates.

For example, playing games together, going out for a stroll, or having a late-night snack.

Of course, this will only be for the next few days; I will try my best to refuse them afterwards.

Chapter 159: The farewell conversation, the future battle between the two.

"Miss Hikari, your performance with Bogarman was outstanding. Your ability to adapt your skills so flexibly is truly admirable!"

With the champion crowned, the Mikkelsen Cup has concluded, and now it's time for the awards ceremony, where Mikkelsen himself will personally present the ribbon medals.

At the same time, as a top-notch coordinator, he also gave generous praise to Hikaru, this outstanding junior.

"Thank you, Mr. Michael!" Hikaru said with a smile, expressing his gratitude.

Looking at the humble girl, Mikoli smiled and said nothing more, instead taking out a ribbon medal.
