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

Shiba clutched his chest in anguish, and something trickled through his fingertips.

Ah!

It was his broken heart!

……

In the picture—

Neither the Lizard King nor Darkrai took any action first.

Both sides are waiting for their respective trainers to give instructions.

In this level of competition, even the smallest mistake can cost you the entire game.

Both the trainers and the Pokémon were extremely cautious.

"Darkrai, a black hole."

Ultimately, it was Darko who launched the attack first.

Following his order.

Darkrai on the field immediately made a move.

Darkrai's mastery of the Black Hole, the Nightmare God's signature technique, is ridiculously high.

Raise your hand.

A black mass shot rapidly toward the Lizard King on the other side of the field.

at the same time.

Ash's command also rang out at this moment.

"Lizard King! Dodge using high-speed movement!"

The words fell.

The lizard king clenched the branch in its mouth.

Then its entire body pressed down, and the Pokémon disappeared from the spot as quickly as an arrow.

They were so fast that three or four green figures of the Lizard King could be seen moving around on the field.

Facing the black hole thrown by Darkrai.

The Lizard King easily avoided the black hole.

at the same time.

The distance between the two was gradually reduced at this time.

The speed was so fast that Dakdo was taken aback.

This lizard king is much faster than it was three years ago.

He vaguely remembered that lily of the valley convention back then.

Darkrai's Black Hole easily hit this Sceptile.

Darkdoll originally planned to use the combination of Black Hole and Dream Eater to take down one of Ash's Pokémon at the start.

Who knew that the speed the Lizard King displayed in that instant would amaze him.

"Very good, I acknowledge you as a Sceptile King, but do you think you can dodge my Darkrai's attack like that? You underestimate me!"

Finish this sentence.

Dakdo's previously scattered gaze instantly focused.

He exuded an aura completely different from his previous carefree state.

"Darkrai! Freeze Beam!"

next moment.

Darkrai brought his hands together in front of his chest.

Immediately afterwards, he simultaneously unleashed two blue beams of light from both hands toward the still approaching Lizard King.

The Lizard King's attribute is Grass.

Being hit by the Freeze Ray will result in double damage.

Faced with Darkrai's almost completely sealed-off, frozen beams of light from his hands.

The Lizard King had no choice but to stop in its tracks and dodge backward.

"You underestimate me! Do you know how many matches I've practiced against you in the past three years?!"

"What does this have to do with me?"

Just as Ash was about to excitedly share his personal journey, Darkrai ruthlessly interrupted him.

And in this situation...

Ash has decided that once he beats him, he'll definitely give him a good taunt!

Who told Dakdo to be so infuriating!

"Lizard King! Seed Machine Gun!"

Ash pointed forward and then gave the command.

"qia!"

The Lizard King's golden pupils swept quickly over Darkrai.

After that, a corresponding plan was already in mind.

Calmness is synonymous with the Lizard King; it can maintain absolute focus at all times.

Like now!

The Lizard King leaped back lightly.

Immediately afterwards, a vibrant green grass-based energy began to emanate from his mouth.

The next moment, his mouth opened slightly.

Countless emerald green lights shot towards the community ahead like machine guns.

The Lizard King's Seed Machine Gun was aimed at Darkrai's hands.

All it takes is for Darkrai to stop using its Freeze Ray!

The situation unfolded exactly as Ash and Sceptile had predicted.

The seed machine gun wasn't very powerful.

However, it is extremely useful for interrupting moves.

The continuous seed machine gun fire made it impossible for Darkrai to maintain the ice beams on his hands.

It had no choice but to stop what it was doing.

"Next up is our turn! Lizard King Cross Scissors!"

From the moment he lost to Dakuto at the Suzuran Tournament.

Ash had mentally reviewed that battle.

In that battle, Darkrai and Latios were the only factors that truly secured Darkrai's victory.

The most important thing is the combination of moves.

Whether it's a freezing ray or a black hole combined with a dream-eating device.

Darko's moves are all designed to complement each other.

Once you are hit by any move, your opponent will follow up with a whole combo.

Darkrai did this better than Latios!

To defeat Darkrai, a swift victory is necessary.

Therefore, he has a buff called the Master of Reverse Attributes.

However, it's best to avoid using this buff when facing Pokémon like Darkrai.

after all!

The opponent is no ordinary adversary.

The slightest mistake could lead to total defeat.

And to deal with Darkrai, who has the Dark attribute.

Aside from Fighting-type moves, the most useful are Bug-type and Fairy-type moves.

Sceptile King naturally cannot learn Fairy-type moves.

In this situation, the best move to use is a Bug-type move!

Like now!

Darkrai, whose Freeze Beam had been interrupted, was still waiting for Darkrai's command.
