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

Darkrai's blue eyes held no emotion whatsoever.

just.

As Alice looked around.

Darkrai chose to retreat into the shadows.

However, at the moment of sinking into shadow.

A hint of nostalgia appeared in those calm, deep blue eyes.

You and she are so alike!

……

In the picture—

The appearance of Darkrai immediately put Ash and his friends on alert.

As its figure gradually emerged fully from the shadows.

Ash and Pikachu immediately went into battle mode.

just.

Before Ash could even give Pikachu the command to battle.

Albert then stepped forward to stand in front of the group.

"Use your big tongue to lick! Use the destructive beam!"

The Pokémon that looked remarkably like Albert took two steps forward.

Then an orange glow began to emanate from his mouth.

The destructive beam immediately shot towards Darkrai in front of him!

however!

Darkrai vanished into the shadows in the next second.

Then he dodged and weaved.

It passed under everyone's feet before reappearing in front of them.

What terrifying agility!

They are several times stronger than the three Divine Pillars encountered in "Heroes of the Waveguide"!

And after Darkrai reappeared.

A black energy ball condensed in its hands.

Before Ash and the others could react.

The energy wave was thrown in front of them by Darkrai.

The attack was originally intended for Albert.

However, Albert's quick movement revealed Ash behind him.

The black hole slammed directly into Ash.

Even someone as powerful as Ash was completely enveloped by the black hole the moment he came into contact with it.

fast.

Even the people next to Xiaozhi didn't react in time.

"Ash! Are you alright?" Dawn called out anxiously.

however.

Ash, who was hit by the black hole, didn't answer Dawn at all.

Because it was within Ash's field of vision.

At this moment, he had fallen into a pitch-black abyss.

[Xiaoxia: I hope Xiaozhi is alright!]

[Naza: As expected, scum like this should be killed outright. His first thought after that attack was to have someone else take the hit for him; he's utterly despicable.]

[Lance: To be fair! You can't really blame Albert. Anyone would instinctively dodge that kind of attack, and probably didn't expect Ash to be right behind him.]

[Naza: You actually defended that kind of person? Looks like your high-altitude experience wasn't enough!]

[Yu Longdu: No! This kind of scum deserves to die!]

[Da Ye: If you don't understand, just ask. Was A-Du threatened by their gym leader? Is this all the strongest Elite Four member in Kanto is capable of? If you ask me, he should just retire!]

[Shiba: Good, good, you're really brave!]

[Da Ye: Just kidding, I'm super brave!]

[Xiaoxia: Xiaozhi! Please don't let anything happen to you!]

[Xiao Gang: Don't worry, Ash is lucky and has a strong constitution. This attack is nothing! Besides, this is Ash's special inventory, how could anything happen!]

[Xiao Mao: Don't worry, this kind of idiot is incredibly lucky. This kind of attack won't do anything to him!]

[Ash: Thank you so much!]

……

In the picture—

Ash, who had fallen into darkness, was slammed hard to the ground.

However, when he got up from the ground...

But then he discovered that all his companions who had been beside him had disappeared.

The park is still the same park!

But everything seemed eerie!

"Pikachu, where did you go?!"

"Xiao Guang, Xiao Gang, where are you?!"

Ash's first thought was of his companions.

He shouted loudly in the park, trying to get his companions to respond.

however.

His response was silence.

"Hey, stop hiding, come out now."

Seeing that no one responded.

Xiao Zhi has to find it himself.

just.

As he stepped forward, he didn't notice that his shadow behind him was gradually becoming distorted.

Wait until he reacts.

His shadow had filled the entire road.

And after Ash turned around.

The shadows have combined to form a gigantic figure.

That figure was none other than Darkrai, the Nightmare God!

Darkrai's signature blue eyes lit up instantly in the shadow on the ground.

This sudden change startled Xiao Zhi.

Ash, who is never afraid of any Pokémon, is most afraid of ghosts!

(Ghost-type Pokémon not included)

Darkrai's shadow rose from the ground.

Finally, his entire body enveloped Ash!

The next moment, Ash seemed to have fallen into an unknown area.

In this unknown area, a silhouette shimmering with magenta energy flashed past him.

The figure had no physical form; only its pair of scarlet eyes were particularly striking.

“palu~”

The eerie screams were accompanied by a body that twisted like a monster.

Ash's hair stood on end!

What...is this thing?!

In an instant, the figure with flashing red eyes passed through Ash's body.

Xiao Zhi instinctively covered his eyes with his hand.
