Pokémon: Ash the New Generation, Starting from Sinnoh

With a wave of his hand, the red-haired Huoxing summoned a dense swarm of large-mouthed bats that flew behind Zhenxing, Huoxing, and Suixing.

Standing in front of the three were the Bronze Mirror Monster, the Tank Skunk, and the Dong Shi Cat, each looking at them with unfriendly expressions.

Cynthia's expression remained unchanged, completely disregarding these people.

Chapter 181 Defeating Team Galactic

"Fly in the sky, bite the land shark!"

On her exquisite and captivating face, Cynthia had lost some of her usual gentleness and gained a more serious air, quite like the Sinnoh War Goddess.

"Garuda, Draco Meteor!"

With its deep, light gray eyes scanning the Zubat in mid-air, it immediately decided to let Garchomp use its ultimate move to wipe out the enemy.

"Ground Shark~"

Garchomp raised its wings, tilted its head back, and unleashed the energy stored within its body. As if a meteor shower were falling from the sky, beams of energy flew toward the Zubat swarm.

The sheer scale of the commotion caused the previously arrogant Team Galactic members to flee in panic.

"So strong!"

Seeing the giant beaked bats falling from the ground, Xiao Guang's eyes widened, and his mouth formed an "O" shape.

"Come out, Aerodactyl, Steelix, go and... oh no, go and help!"

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer Zubats, Ash quickly threw out two Poké Balls to give the two guys some experience.

"Roar~" x2

A moment later, two enormous creatures appeared in front of Ash and took the initiative to confront their respective opponents.

"Zoobat, Air Blade!"

With the addition of the fossil pterosaur and Steelix, Team Galaxy faces increased pressure.

"The bronze mirror monster possesses a powerful spirit!"

Zhenxing commanded the remaining swarm of giant mouth bats and bronze mirror monsters to prepare for an aerial attack.

"Fossil Pteranodon, take off! Steelix, ironclad!"

"roar~"

Faced with a barrage of attacks, the fossil pterosaur used its speed advantage to fly away from the giant bat's attack range.

Steelix, with its enhanced defense thanks to its Iron Wall, directly withstood the attack and used its massive body to block the air blades for everyone.

As for the fossil pterosaur, it goes without saying that it could firmly defend against the opponent's attacks with its two wings.

"The bronze mirror monster, hypnosis!"

"Tank Skunk, Shadow Ball!"

"Dongshi Meow, high-speed star!"

The Bronze Mirror's eyes glowed blue as it prepared to hypnotize the massive Steelix, under the cover of Shadow Ball and Velociraptor.

The Aerodactyl and Pikachu are busy dealing with the Zubats in the sky and have no time to pay attention to the Steelix.

"Steel Cobra, dig..."

Ash was about to send Steelix into a hole to hide, but Cynthia seized the opportunity and went straight for it.

"Now's your chance, Garchomp, Brick Break!"

"Cha~"

Garchomp suddenly leaped, covering most of the distance in one bound, and arrived in front of Mirrormon in the blink of an eye, landing a Brick Break that struck its weak point.

"Bang~"

With a soft thud, the bronze mirror monster fell to the ground, its steaming, ring-eyed form rendered it unable to fight.

"As expected of the champion, his strength is indeed extraordinary!"

Seeing this, the scorching sun behind her offered its praise, seemingly happy that Cynthia had defeated the villain.

In reality, his heart was far less calm than it appeared.

What Ash did next made his blood pressure spike.

"Steel Snake, dig a hole!"

Although Copper Mirror was instantly defeated, Ash still had Steelix dig a hole in order to quickly get closer to its opponent.

On the surface, the effect was remarkable, because the opponent did not have a Pokémon that could use Earthquake, and could only cautiously observe their surroundings.

"roar~"

Unfortunately, the Tank Skunk was still knocked away by the Steelix.

"Dongshim, Shadow Ball!"

"Tank Skunk, Flamethrower!"

Both Horus and Jupiter launched a counterattack, targeting the giant steel snake that emerged from the ground.

In particular, the Tank Skunk, mid-air, slashed its entire body, sending a blazing pillar of fire straight at the Steelix.

"Take the Shadow Ball, then use Protect!"

Faced with two attacks from the front and back, Ash decisively had Steelix take the Shadow Ball to defend against the more deadly Flamethrower.

"Pikachu, thunder!"

On Ash's side, Pikachu wasn't idle either. Facing the Tank Skunk, which was unable to move easily in mid-air, Pikachu unleashed a golden bolt of lightning that struck straight down, turning the Tank Skunk into a charred mess.

"Damn it, you idiot, Destruction Ray!"

Seeing his companions fall one after another, Xiao Guang and Xiao Gang from the opposing team joined the battle. Sui Xing anxiously ordered Dong Shi Miao to unleash his ultimate move in an attempt to turn the tide.

"Lucario, speed!"

In an instant, a flash of red light appeared, and a handsome blue dog suddenly appeared, approaching Dong Shi Miao at an unparalleled speed.

Punch the cat in the mouth to interrupt its spellcasting.

"Infernape, use Mach Punch!"

Just as Lucario was about to unleash its power to finish off its opponent, Infernape used Mach Punch to easily defeat the low-health Meowth, successfully gaining experience.

Ash's act of knocking Lucario's head off earned him a strange look, making Ash feel quite embarrassed.

Fortunately, Cynthia didn't care and focused her attention on Team Galaxy.

"You've completely lost this time!"

Through their efforts, all of Team Galactic's Pokémon lay on the ground and passed away, leaving only two or three Zubats being chased and attacked by Aerodactyl, unable to change the overall situation.

Zhenxing looked around. All the elves had been wiped out, and the leader of the opposing Red Sun was constantly hinting that retreat was their best option.

After all, Cynthia, as the champion, is not someone they can face.

Not to mention the addition of Ash Ketchum, a powerful combatant.

"Retreat~"

As soon as he finished speaking, a double-explosive gas was released, and the figures of Zhenxing, Huoxing, and Suixing were enveloped in black mist.

"Fossil pterosaur, blow away the smoke!"

"roar~"

The fossil pterosaur vigorously flapped its wings, dispersing the thick smoke in a single glance.

However, Team Galactic seemed to have vanished; apart from the scattered Zubats on the field, everyone else had disappeared.

"What a pity, they got away!" Xiao Guang said regretfully.

"It's alright, as long as the white jade pearl is preserved!" Hirona replied calmly, then looked at the three of them with a smile, "However, we still have to thank you all today!"

"Miss Cynthia, you're too kind. I'm sure you could handle this group even without us!"

Ash wasn't smug, because he regretted not knowing Cynthia's strength.

Theoretically speaking, it makes no difference whether the three of them are there or not.

Cynthia didn't deny it, but instead smiled and patted Pikachu's head, as if she was very pleased with Pikachu's performance.

Having successfully protected the white jade pearl, everyone was in high spirits.

However, this excludes Akari from the team.

"This kid's Pokémon are all quite powerful!"

Chi Ri frowned, clearly in a bad mood, but he couldn't show it.

Despite his outward smile, Xiaozhi saw only hypocrisy, though he couldn't bring himself to say it outright.

He could only spend time alone with Cynthia before leaving the next day, and he told her to be careful.

"Ash, what did you say to Cynthia?" Dawn walked ahead, her hands behind her back, staring directly at Ash with a questioning tone.

"It's nothing! I just wanted to warn Miss Cynthia to be careful of the blazing sun!"
