Pokémon: A Roundup of Ash's Eight Masters' Peak Battles!

[Genji: Hey, Daigo, you know what it means to comfort someone.]

[Dalno: There's nothing we can do. Lance is just an Elite Four member, while Cynthia is a legitimate Sinnoh Champion. And among all of us Champions, Cynthia's strength is definitely among the top tier. It's not shameful to compare yourself to her.]

[Yu Longdu: That's just pure, unwarranted bashing, okay? Even if I were the King of Heaven, I still managed to have the final championship match against Dan Di during my previous livestream.]

[Adeke: Is it possible you were luckier last time?]

[Yu Longdu: Ha, it's just a championship! I'll get it sooner or later!]

[Kona: Yeah, yeah, it's just a champion. It's a piece of cake for Lance, the strongest Dragon-type Elite Four member in Kanto.]

[Dr. Kukui: What's with this sarcastic remark? Your Kanto region isn't exactly harmonious.]

Dragon Crossing: ...

What can he do about this?

With his ability, he would definitely have a chance to win a championship in other leagues.

However, in the Kanto Alliance.

As long as Kobe doesn't retire.

He has absolutely no chance.

His ace Dragonite is four times weak to Ice.

Lorelei's Cloyster can instantly kill his Dragonite with a single Activation Beam!

How can we play this!

Yu Longdu is really panicking now, after all, five years from now he will only be a Heavenly King.

That means he will be suppressed by Kona for at least another five years!

There might be more.

There's no such thing as a king who's been a superstar for so many years!

No!

I must seize the time to train and catch some more Dragon-type Pokémon.

He absolutely must win this championship!

……

After agreeing to Ash's request.

Cynthia remained calm, but Ash was already excited.

If I didn't currently not have a main Pokémon in my hand.

Ash wants to have a thrilling Pokémon battle with Cynthia.

As for Xiaochun, she was completely dizzy.

Since deciding to fight alongside Ash.

Xiaochun has been cramming on information about Pokémon battles.

As the strongest female trainer in the world, Cynthia naturally caught her attention at a glance.

And now, with such direct contact...

Koharu's feelings for Cynthia became more intuitive.

Cynthia is really strong and cool!

She really is! I love her so much!

"Ash, you should do your best too! I really hope to see you on the stage of the Masters Battle."

Cynthia finished the rest of her coffee in one gulp.

Then he looked at Ash with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"Of course! I will definitely become one of the top eight masters and challenge to become the strongest champion in the area!"

“Very good, very spirited.”

Several people chatted for a while.

Cynthia also learned about Ash's experiences over the past few years from him.

From the disappointment of the Carlos League to the successful challenge and victory in the Alola League.

It can only be said that Ash's experiences over the past few years are nothing short of legendary.

Cynthia had no idea that Ash had such a rich and varied background.

Especially the battle between Ash and Professor Kukui.

Even gods are participating; it seems Ash's strength has now reached the same level as his own.

Moreover, it was unexpected that such a powerful player would exist in Alola, a league that had only just been established.

It seems we cannot underestimate anyone.

Ash and Haru stayed in Sinnoh for a few more days, led by Cynthia.

The three then boarded a plane together and traveled to Gongmen City.

It serves as the venue for the eight masters to compete in the World Championship.

The Palace Arena is indeed large enough to accommodate a large number of spectators.

There are still a few days until the battle between Leon and Kibana.

Before Leon's match begins, a 1v1 match between Cynthia and Diantha will be held first.

The World Championships are currently in the ranking stage.

The game is highly entertaining, so it did not feature full-scale 6v6 battles.

But this will not dampen the audience's enthusiasm.

This is a battle between champions!

Ash naturally received an inside ticket from Cynthia for this battle.

Karuno ranks fifth among the eight masters, while Cynthia ranks second.

Karu is the challenger.

The match between the two female champions was also very popular, second only to the match between Dan and his team.

After all, besides being a league champion, Karuno is also...

Another identity she has is that of a world-renowned superstar, and Karuno is also the world's strongest female league champion.

On the day of the match, the entire Palace Arena was packed with people who came to watch.

Ash and Haru sat at the very front of the audience.

"Ash, who do you think will win this competition? Champion Diantha looks really strong."

Xiaochun nervously tugged at Xiaozhi's clothes.

After spending these past few days together, Xiaochun has become a staunch Cynthia supporter!

Especially after Cynthia gave her guidance on raising Feebas and Milotic.

Xiaochun has become a huge fan of Cynthia!

"Don't worry, Champion Karuno is indeed very strong, but Champion Cynthia won't lose."

Xiao Zhi said with great certainty.

[Karuno: Don't drag me down. Cynthia is indeed very strong as Champion, but I'm not weak either!]

[Dorasena: Diantha is indeed very strong, but she's still a bit weaker than Cynthia. Even among all the League Champions, Cynthia is one of the best.]

[DaYe: I just remembered something. Diantha's Champion's ace Gardevoir's favorite move is Shadow Ball.]

[Shiba: Shadowball? There shouldn't be a problem with that.]

[Big Leaf: Are you stupid?! Gardevoir is a Psychic/Fairy type. Isn't it a big deal to use Shadow Ball instead of its own STAB move?]

[Denji: You're not Da Ye, something's wrong with you, how come you're so smart!]

[Da Ye: You can doubt my intelligence! But you can't doubt my battle instincts! I'm the Fire-type Elite Four member of the Sinnoh League, I know that much!]

[Karuno: Fine, fine, you're slandering me, aren't you? You wait, let's fight one-on-one!]

[Denji: You're finished, Big Leaf! You've been targeted by Champion Karuno.]

Mega Gardevoir, using Shadow Ball.

This scene is a bit outrageous!
