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

The current Darkrai is a bit strange!

Darkrai is normally floating.

But now Darkrai is actually sticking out his legs!

And she also has a pair of very long legs!

[Darkrai: Huh? Darkrai has legs! I thought it could only fly!]

[Genji: Isn't that normal? Who says Pokémon with legs can't fly!]

[Xiaosheng: I know that, I saw it in a picture book, Groudon can't fly!]

[Red Pine: Brat, stop talking nonsense! How could the great Lord Groudon not know how to fly!]

Archie: Hehe, Groudon just can't fly~

[Red Pine: You wait! Daigo, I'm reporting Archie for hiding on Mt. Chimney!]

[Water Wutong: You!]

Daigo: Genji is in your hands now!

……

In the picture—

The enraged trainers immediately launched an attack on Darkrai.

Infernape's Sonic Punch!

Emperor Naboo's Freeze Ray!

They unleashed a barrage of attacks on Darkrai as if they were free.

However, Darkrai countered with a move called Dark Pulse combined with a wide-range black hole.

They put all the trainers' Pokémon into the area.

All that remained on the field were the Rockets, who were trying to capture Darkrai, and Baron Lickitung.

After realizing the situation on the field.

Baron Lickitung, having solidified his resolve as a Lickitung (Baron), launched an attack on Darkrai.

Even a proper tongue lick couldn't reach Clay.

How could this bootleg Baron with his big tongue possibly do that?

The final result can be imagined.

That is!

"What an awful feeling!"

The familiar figures of the Team Rocket trio, who were blasted away along with Baron Lickitung, were spotted.

the other side.

Inside the laboratory of the Tower of Time and Space.

Tony replayed everything that happened after Darkrai arrived at the plaza, according to his own ideas.

The results are gratifying.

Thanks to Tony's tireless efforts,

He finally found the root of everything.

The figure hidden at the very center of the energy burst.

A Pokémon with a rather peculiar appearance.

Amid his exclamation, Ash and his friends arrived beside Tony.

Palucia's image was clearly visible on the device's screen.

"It's the guy who appeared in my dream." Ash recognized the very familiar figure at a glance.

Xiao Gang also revealed its name.

Palkia, the god who controls the power of space!

In Tony's speculation, the destroyed ruins in the park are all omens of Paluchia's impending doom.

Darkrai's words "Don't come here" in the square were directed at Paluchia in the sky.

"So that's it. In my dream, Darkrai wanted to tell me that Palkia was about to arrive here?"

"At that moment, only Darkrai noticed Palkia's figure in the instant of the energy burst."

Ash murmured.

In that instant, everything was connected.

The events that occurred in the park, and the news that Darkrai wanted to tell him when he chased him into the alley, were probably also about Paluchia's appearance.

But why was Darkrai so confident in himself?

No! Now is not the time to think about these things.

"Tony, do you know where Palkia is right now?"

Ash said in a serious tone.

Upon hearing Xiaozhi's words, Tony started operating the device.

The final location was the highest point in the entire Baiyang Town, which is the top of the Tower of Time and Space.

"Let's go help Darkrai!"

After saying that, Xiao Zhi rushed out first.

Darkrai then arrived at the plaza of the Tower of Time.

Besides it, not far from Darkrai.

A blonde woman was licking her ice cream, oblivious to everything else.

Despite her serious expression, she didn't stop eating her ice cream, no matter what was happening in front of her.

[Dr. Mustard: Cynthia, are you also in Aspen Town?]

[Cynthia: I don't know, after all, this is my future self. Maybe there's something I happen to need to visit back then.]

[Da Ye: Wait a minute, Big Sister, you're not only interested in myths and legends, are you?]

[Wusong: Idiot, aren't Darkrai and Palkia both legendary Pokémon?]

[Da Ye: But no one has mentioned that before! If it weren't for this incident, who would know that such a small town as Baiyang could have so many hidden talents!]

[Cattleya: I'm relieved with Cynthia around. With Cynthia and Ash together, they should be able to solve any problem.]

Cynthia: Maybe.

This time, Cynthia did not show particularly strong confidence.

Legendary Pokémon are also divided into different ranks.

Paluchia is undoubtedly the most powerful god in the world right now.

Even if her opponent is injured, Cynthia is not guaranteed to win.

"Don't worry, Miss Cynthia, I'm here. I'll definitely stop all of this!"

Cynthia was still hesitating.

Xiao Zhi's answer was already echoing in her ears.

Yes, and Ash too.

With him around, this world-destroying crisis will surely be resolved.

For some reason, after hearing what Ash said...

A sense of relief welled up inside Cynthia.

This feeling only comes when you're paired with Garchomp.

Unbeknownst to her, Ash's status in Cynthia's heart had become comparable to that of her Garchomp.

You should know that Garchomp is Cynthia's most important partner, having grown up with her since she was a cub!

There's no one like it!

……

In the picture—

Darkrai's azure eyes were fixed on the top of the Tower of Time.

"You! Get out of here!"

Darkrai is extremely irritable!

It raised its hands high, and a massive amount of Dark-type energy instantly gathered between Darkrai's hands.

Evil Wave! Activated!
