[Denji: Oh? Big Leaf, you actually gave it such a high rating? You know your Infernape is champion-level!]

Although Da Ye is one of the Sinnoh Elite Four, that's only because he has the incredibly powerful Champion Cynthia over him.

If he were in the Unova region, he would definitely be a champion!

Its ace Infernape is only slightly weaker than Garchomp!

However, Da Ye had such a high opinion of Ash's Infernape!

It seems that Ash has grown a lot in the years to come!

He can offer not only Sceptile, Charizard, and Pikachu, but also other Pokémon!

……

In the video—

After Ash finished catching up with his Dragonite and the Pokémon from his backyard,

We're back in Kuye City.

Because he suddenly received an urgent phone call.

Sakuragi Research Lab in Konoha City... is haunted!

In this world, if there are ghosts or monsters, they are usually the work of ghost-type spirits.

Therefore, Ash specifically brought a Pokémon that was designed to counter Ash this time!

After arriving at Sakuragi Research Institute,

He then saw everyone in the research institute being controlled and floating up!

Xiaochun stood trembling before a purplish-black elf!

Chapter 162: What, Wataru, are you still one of the Four Heavenly Kings?! The Legend of Muktuna!

In the video—

When Ash arrived at Sakuragi's lab, he discovered...

Everyone was floating, except for Xiaochun, who stood on the ground trembling with fear.

A dog with an electric tin can blocked her way, and in front of her was a purplish-black elf.

It has red eyes, two pointed ears, short limbs, and a tail.

Ghost-type Pokémon – Gengar!

Sure enough, the ghost that Dr. Sakuragi mentioned was Gengar!

"Xiaochun, are you alright?"

"I...I'm fine, Yggdrasil protected me, but...this Gengar is so powerful, I..."

Xiaochun's face showed a timid expression.

Dr. Sakuragi had her use the electric dog in battle.

But she was a little scared... scared that her Gengar wouldn't be able to beat it, or that it might even get seriously hurt.

Having only experienced one battle, she had no idea how to fight effectively.

"Leave it to me! I choose you, Night Hawk!"

"Goo—" (The night owl's voice has a tremor, I don't know how to describe it~)

A red and gold nightjar appeared before them!

Even though Professor Sakuragi was suspended in mid-air, he couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when he saw Ash's Noctowl.

"It's a red nightjar?! Is it a shimmering nightjar?!"

Ash's Noctowl is completely different in color from the usual Noctowl!

This color scheme... is way better looking than the usual Nightjar!

"Um... Professor Sakuragi, isn't this the time to talk about this? Night Hawk, Superpower!"

"Goo-"

The night owl's red eyes gleamed with a golden light.

Then, with his mouth slightly open, a golden supernatural power, like a tornado, swept out!

Upon seeing this, Gengar quickly dodged, and Professor Sakuragi and the others who were being controlled were also thrown down and fell to the ground.

Gengar then vanished from the house.

This is a move that only a few Gengar can use—invisibility!

"Don't even think about leaving! Night Hawk, you've been spotted!"

As mentioned before, Ash specifically brought Noctowl for Ghost-type Pokémon.

Ultimately, it's because... Night Hawks can see through your special moves!

His nightjar, apart from its different color and being more intelligent than ordinary nightjars,

They are exceptionally gifted with Psychic-type moves and handle them with ease! They are perfect for dealing with Ghost-type Pokémon!

"Goo-"

Noctowl's ten red eyes lit up, and Gengar was instantly exposed! It was found by Noctowl in an instant!

"That's it! Use your supernatural powers!"

Gengar unleashed its tornado-like power once more, but it wasn't so easy to bully!

He stretched out his hands, and a powerful mental force froze the supernatural power in mid-air!

Superpower Technique - Psychic!

This Gengar... is indeed very strong!

"How interesting! I've decided, I'm going to capture you, Gengar! Noctowl, Air Slash!"

"Goo-"

Countless white energy blades rained down like a storm!

Seeing this, Gengar used the same trick again, using Psychic to control all the Air Slashes!

"Now! Use Swallow Return!"

"Goo-"

Noctowl made a turn in mid-air and arrived in front of Gengar in an instant at a speed that was completely imperceptible!

Then, its body, covered in a streamlined white light, slammed into Gengar!

It knocked Gengar flying out of Sakuragi Labs!

"Oops!"

Ash rushed out upon seeing this, only to find that Gengar had vanished.

In a confined indoor environment, it's easier to find using the ability to detect deception.

But outdoors... even if Noctowl can spot it, there's no way to find Gengar like searching for a needle in a haystack!

"Oh, what a pity..."

Ash sighed, feeling regretful for missing out on Gengar.

He stopped thinking about it and went back inside to check on Dr. Sakuragi and the others.

……

[Lance: I noticed it in the backyard earlier; Ash's Noctowl is a different color. I didn't expect it to be so powerful!]

[Rika: Noctowl is a Pokémon that gathers in the Johto region. Ash must have caught it in Johto, right?]

[One Tree: This Noctowl isn't just a shiny Pokémon; its control over Psychic abilities is even comparable to Psychic-type Pokémon! I'm starting to wonder if Ash's Noctowl is a Psychic-Flying type!]

[Gardelia: You know what, you really do know! This color goes really well with the superpowered style!]

Psychic-type trainers tend to get more excited when it comes to Psychic-type Pokémon.

For example, Cattleya and Yishu~

Amidst the murmurs and discussions among the crowd

In the video, Ash has already learned the whole story from Professor Sakuragi and the others.

It turns out that Gengar had already appeared at Sakuragi's lab before!

Or rather... this is a haunted house from the start!

However, Dr. Sakuragi found it very interesting, so he resolutely decided to take over the haunted house.

Treat it as your own research institute.
