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

Ho-Oh did not land; it remained in mid-air, watching Ash and Suicune below.

'Hey, Suijun, where are you now? Have you still not let go of those old obsessions?'

"Lord Ho-Oh, I'm sorry, but I can't let go of my attachment to water."

It could never forget the agony of being burned by flames in the charred tower.

Only the torrential rain purified its soul.

Water is greater than everything, including its life, and its role in purification prevents the Water God from turning a blind eye to poachers polluting water sources.

'You're still so willful, even willing to pay with your life for it?'

'Feel sorry. '

Having said that, Ho-Oh understood what Suicune meant.

If one's heart is set on death, no one can save them, especially since Suijun has used his very essence to purify the water source as quickly as possible.

Ash, I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I can't save Suicune either.

Ho-Oh's ethereal voice carried a hint of sorrow; it was mourning for the impending demise of Suicune.

"No, no! You are the Phoenix King, you can definitely save it!"

Xiao Zhi said anxiously.

It hurts, it hurts too much!

Ash couldn't bear to see his Pokémon die right before his eyes.

Therefore, he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

All of the aura power was poured into Suicune's stamina.

"Please, don't die like this, even if it's for my sake!"

Waveguide power unleashed!

"Stop it, Ash! You can't do this! You'll die!"

At this moment, Xiaochun panicked!

It had heard that one could die if their Aura power was exhausted! Ash also talked about his experience at Yggdrasil!

"Cough cough, stop, Ash, I have no will to live!"

"No, I won't let you die! Even if it costs me my life!"

"Pikachu."

Pikachu tugged at Ash's sleeve, looking somewhat frightened.

"Please! Live on! Even if it's just for me!..."

With a "thump," Ash's body suddenly lost its support and fell straight to the ground.

"Ash!"

"Pickup!"

Xiaochun and Pikachu quickly helped Xiaozhi up.

However, Ash had already passed out from overusing the power of Aura.

Upon seeing this, the Phoenix King sighed.

A burst of fiery energy erupted from his mouth and enveloped Ash.

Ho-Oh's Fire replenished Ash's lost life force, and Ash's originally pale face gradually regained its rosy hue.

'Ho-Oh, I want to live.'

'Your fundamental power is lost; even I am powerless to help you.'

Is there really no other way?

"It's not impossible. I can use Holy Ashes to sustain your remaining primal power, but to fully recover, you'll need to find Taleborgos, which can awaken your former dragon-like essence. But remember, you don't have much time left."

'But I still want to try, even if it's just for this child.'

'That's fine too.'

The phoenix spread its wings, leaving behind a feather.

The feather fell on Suicune, turned to ash, and blended into his body.

Suicune, who was originally unable to even fight, actually stood up from the ground.

It slowly walked to Ash's side and sat down next to Ash's body.

[Cattleya: Ash, he really... I'm going to cry. He'd even give up his own life to become Suicune! He truly loves Pokémon!]

Ash's love for Pokémon is truly touching!

..

Chapter 155 Ash, you gave me my life! No, not there!

[McClure: Ash and Suicune are going in the same direction. Ash gave Suicune hope for life, and Suicune is willing to live for Ash in return.]

[Leon: Mutual affection is always so upright! Suicune has truly faced death and come back to life; it was completely healed by Ash.]

[Zhimi: I understand now why so many Pokémon are so eager to get close to Ash. Who wouldn't like someone who's willing to sacrifice for Pokémon!]

[Hanako: Sigh, this child has always been like this since she was little, and she won't change even as she grows up.]

Hanako is very sad.

He doesn't object to his child's love for Pokémon.

After all, Ash's dream since childhood has only been to become a Pokémon Master.

And he has been working towards that goal.

But seeing Ash choose to sacrifice himself to protect the Pokémon...

Her heart, as a mother, was still breaking with pain.

Even though these things have never happened!

[Xiaosong: Has nobody noticed Ho-Oh?! Ash is going too far! He managed to summon Ho-Oh completely twice! It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say Ash is Ho-Oh's illegitimate son.]

[Dr. Mulan: I'm actually quite interested in the Taleborg that Ho-Oh mentioned. I've never even heard of it. What kind of deity is it?]

[Cynthia: I only know one thing: Talebagos is a legend about celestial crystals circulating in the Parthian region. Talebagos possessed eighteen different celestial elemental powers and was known as a minor creator god by the locals.]

[Da Ye: Huh? Has Prince Arceus's prestige dropped so much? How come everyone's jumping on his good side now!]

[Lance: Awakening the power of the Dragon type in his true form! Holy crap! A genuine Water Dragon! If Suicune fully recovers and awakens its Dragon-type power, wouldn't that mean Ash's team has gained another formidable Dragon-type warrior?!]

Professor Oak: Water Dragon? I'm reminded of a very interesting legend. In the legends, Suicune, Entei, and Raikou existed in ancient times, and their true forms were actually dinosaur-type Pokémon similar to Baby Tyrannosaurus.

Suicune's true form is described as a being of undulating water, said to be a terrifying entity capable of unleashing extremely hot water currents even in bright sunlight!

[Lance: Huh? Does that mean that once Suicune regains its Dragon type, it will revert to being Water?]

[Kona: Someone's broken down, but I won't say who.]

[Shiba: Adu, I saw a red nose on the ground, is that yours?]

[Yu Longdu: You two, that's enough! You want to kill someone and then destroy their spirit, huh?!]

She's broken down! This time, A-Du has truly broken down!

Ash has more dragons than he has any dragon-type Pokémon.

How can there be such a thing as a legendary dragon Pokémon?!

This made him, a dragon king from the Kanto region, lose face!

Not anymore!

This can't go on any longer!

If he's given the title of Dragon-type Elite Four member, he'll never be able to hold his head up in the world of trainers again!

We need to find a way to win the championship!

That way, who cares what attributes he uses!

Adu praised himself for his cleverness! He's such a quick-witted little devil!

[Kona: Don't even think about it~ I'm absolutely not holding back~]

Dragon Crossing: G!

……

In the picture—

The poachers were escorted out of the forest by Officer Jenny and Komatsu.

News of Ho-Oh's appearance spread like wildfire.

Trainers who had come to this area to watch Suicune immediately turned to Ho-Oh.

After all, this is the most mysterious Pokémon in Kanto and even the world.
