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

Kiawe sighed and recalled the Charizard, now unable to battle, into its Poké Ball.

Finally, he released his last Pokémon.

That is, the Alolan form of Marowak.

It possesses the Fire and Ghost types, unlike the regular Marowak.

Fortunately, its characteristic is a cursed body rather than lightning protection.

Otherwise, Pikachu would be really hard to deal with.

The ensuing battle was just like the one against Charizard.

First, show your opponent enough respect, making the battle more dramatic.

Even though this Marowak possesses near-champion-level strength.

However, it still couldn't do much damage to Ash's Pikachu.

But Pikachu acts like it's about to collapse if you push it any harder.

This kept Gara Gara until the battle ended.

He was swept away by Pikachu's Iron Tail and lost his ability to battle. He didn't even understand what had happened!

That's not right! It used to be evenly matched with Pikachu!

But so much time has passed, why is it still a 50/50 split?

As Gara Gara lost its ability to fight.

The Rotom Dex also announced the results of this match.

"Marowak is unable to battle. The winner of this battle is Ash from Pallet Town."

Ash's ranking also improved once again in this battle, reaching 850th!

Kachi has a very good attitude.

Even though he lost the match, he was not discouraged.

After all, he smiled with relief.

Yes, Ash is the champion of Alola.

It's not shameful to lose to him.

The spectators applauded Ash and Kiawe for their exciting battle.

Although Alora has a sparse population, its inhabitants are of extremely high quality.

No one forced anyone to take a photo with them or ask for an autograph.

People spontaneously made way for them.

Tapu Koko, which had been hidden in the sky, also disappeared after watching the entire battle.

Ash, you've gotten even stronger!

That day, Lily and her other companions spent another day playing with Ash and Haru.

until evening.

Xiao Zhi reluctantly led Xiao Chun onto the plane.

After waving goodbye to his companions, Ash also ended his Alola journey.

However, before leaving...

In order to prepare for the increasingly challenging World Championships to come.

Ash brought along the Poké Balls of Incineroar and the others.

All for the sake of the upcoming battles after advancing to the advanced ball level and even the eight masters!

After all, Ash's goal is Leon!

He had never lost a single game before this!

We returned to Kuye City.

As soon as he returned to Sakuragi Lab, Satoshi collapsed onto the bed.

Over the next few days, Ash returned to Pallet Town with his Poké Balls.

He introduced Incineroar and the others to the Pokémon in the backyard.

The new companions, under the command of Bulbasaur.

The Pokémon in the backyard gave them a grand welcome ceremony.

Seeing such a harmonious scene.

Xiao Zhi was finally relieved.

It's always best if partners can get along well.

For the next period of time, Ash continued to challenge the rankings in the World Championships.

He even encountered Aya, the fighter from Galar who had defeated him last time, along the way.

This time, Ash came up with a strategy to counter the Colored Octopus Samurai.

And successfully helped Riolu complete his revenge.

[Beauty: I can't believe my strategy was cracked so easily. Ash is amazing!]

[Masted: That's not surprising. Bea, your talent is high, but you're still far behind Ash. Ash, on the other hand, is a natural-born martial arts master; it's not normal that he could easily see through your tactics.]

[Beauty: It's okay, one failure doesn't mean anything. If I can really meet Ash again in the future, I believe I won't lose again.]

[Gary: Has it always been this confident? Ash isn't someone you can defeat so easily; even it takes me some time.]

Ash: You'd better give up, you're my defeated foe.

[Dalmatian: Ash, Gary is speaking up for you this time~]

[Grey: You idiot Ash! I'm going to beat you up right now!]

Ash: Come on, who's afraid of who!

Kanto, the backyard of Oak's Laboratory.

Chi Hong adjusted the brim of her hat.

His gaze shifted to a noisy spot in the backyard.

That was the area where Qinglu and Xiaomao were.

These two brothers really have similar personalities; they're both so wicked.

However, I can defeat the green.

Ash will definitely be able to easily beat Gary.

The only explanation for this is bloodline suppression.

……

In the picture—

after this.

Life returned to normal.

"I'm so bored. I can't find any opponents to match with lately."

Inside the Sakuragi Research Institute.

Xiao Zhi propped his head up with one hand, staring listlessly at the ceiling above him.

Xiaochun is diligently studying a book related to battles.

In order to keep up with Ash's pace, Haru also put in a lot of effort.

However, there were no more battles.

Ash has lost his enthusiasm, and so has Pikachu.

After counting all the partitions on the ceiling again.

Ash and Pikachu collapsed onto the table.

"So boring~"

"Jiang Jiang~ I think I heard someone say something boring."

Suddenly, Professor Sakuragi appeared behind Ash.

This gave Xiao Zhi, who had just relaxed, a jolt.

Even Pikachu is the same.

After a burst of lightning and thunder.

All four people at the table were passed through by Pikachu's electric current.

"Professor Sakuragi! Please stop doing things that suddenly scare people."
