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

Forced invulnerability?

After finishing the special machine, Infernape showed no interest in continuing the fight.

With a nimble retreat, he withdrew to the edge of the field!

"Sidoran, are you alright?"

Darko hurriedly inquired about the situation of Sidora.

Sidora shook his massive head; his condition was visibly poor!

"Alright! It's our turn to fight back!"

Darkdoll breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Sidora was still able to fight.

Although Shydra is in very poor condition, it's not like he has no chance!

Infernape was hit by Heatran's signature move, Lava Storm.

Lava storms can continuously damage targets!

Furthermore, after using close combat, Infernape's Defense and Special Defense have both decreased!

at this time!

Infernape is now definitely on its last legs, and what he needs to do is extinguish that last flame!

Just one chance!

That way you can completely defeat Infernape and win the battle!

The best options right now are either overheating or exploding with a large flame!

Both are powerful fire-type attacks.

The large-character burst of flames covers a larger area.

But overheating makes it even more powerful!

After some deliberation, Dakdo had already made up his mind!

"Sidran! Let the final fiery explosion end the battle!"

Then, Dakdo immediately gave instructions.

What he needs to do now is to play it safe and resolve the battle at the lowest possible cost!

After all, in this 3v3 battle, Ash has yet to defeat any of his Pokémon.

There has never been such a situation before!

It's a major crisis!

Dakdo's gaze was deep and unfathomable. This was troublesome! Incredibly troublesome!

Ash is no match for him anymore!

It's a powerful enemy!

And then, after Dakdo gave the order.

Sidora shook his head to keep himself alert!

Then, it opened its enormous, blood-red mouth!

An unimaginable heatwave is converging!

As a powerful fire-type move!

The Great Flame Burst itself possesses terrifying power!

Furthermore, Heatran's exceptionally high special attack made this attack even more terrifying!

The advantage is in my hands! This time it's my turn to win!

It turns out you should never open champagne at halftime!

Under the spotlight!

Infernape and Ash made a move at the same time!

Both of them simultaneously raised their legs high and then stomped hard on the ground!

"This is the final blow! Waveguide Stomp!"

[Big Leaf: No way! Ash, you're a heretic! Infernape is a Fire-type Pokémon, and you haven't used a single Fire-type move yet! That's unforgivable!]

[Alder: Haha, you're really not up to your job as the Sinnoh Fire-type Elite Four member. Even I, a soon-to-retire Unova Champion, know that this situation means the opponent has a property that counters Fire, like Flash Fire.]

[Cynthia: That's true. In mythology, Heatran possesses the ability to summon flames to enhance himself, which certainly fits the description of his fire-summoning ability.]

[Steven: So Ash used Fighting-type moves the whole time, and even used Aura to fight for him!]

[Da Ye: Ah, this?]

[Wu Song: You should resign! You're a disgrace to Sinnoh!]

[Ayu: Indeed, Daiya is quite dull and doesn't know how to talk, but her strength is still quite good. However, I recommend Denji to replace Daiya.]

[Denji: Although I don't really like helping out, I always feel like I died from overwork in my past life, dying from some fox's phone. In this life, I just want to live a peaceful life, but if I could take Da Ye's place, I would be willing.]

(The truth is out! No wonder you became friends with Da Ye! It's because his fiery red hair looks just like a chili pepper! Although it's a bell pepper!)

[Da Ye: Dianci! We are dearest family and friends! Brothers!]

[Caller: It's okay, Wusong just called and told me he can pay more.]

So what if they're brothers!

They've asked for more money!

……

In the picture—

"Tap hard!"

As soon as Xiaozhi finished speaking, Xiaoguang's heart was in his throat.

Can this hold up?

What Heatran unleashed was a massive explosion of flames!

One of the most powerful fire-type moves!

Can simply stepping on the ground solve the problem?

As it turns out, Xiao Guang was overthinking it!

Or rather, Xiao Guang didn't quite grasp the strength of Infernape after Xiao Zhi substituted for it!

In addition to dealing damage, the original effect of Stomp is to reduce the opponent's speed.

But this is under normal usage conditions.

However!

Things are different now!

Seeing Ash and Infernape's raised feet, Darkrod sensed something was wrong!

But I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong!

However, when that foot landed on the ground, it felt vibrations coming from all directions.

Dakdo finally realized what was wrong!

This is the second time you've done this!

The first time, I said "cross shears," and then I used hand gestures to instruct the lizard king to use the digging tool!

Now they're talking about starting over!

But is this some kind of heavy trampling?!

Who could possibly stomp so hard that the entire battlefield would shake constantly?

That's a damn earthquake!

Xiao Zhi! I never expected you and that guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes to be using military strategy!

Heatran, which is already four times weak to Ground, simply couldn't withstand Infernape's attacks!

He didn't even manage to unleash the explosive flames in his mouth before collapsing on the battlefield, which had been cracked by the earthquake!

Dakdo watched all of this silently.

He had a strong feeling that he might not be able to win today!

They might even be shut out!

G!

"Heatland is unable to battle! Please send out a new Pokémon, Darkrod."

It wasn't until referee Lotom spoke that Darko snapped out of his daze.

He took out a Poké Ball and recalled the unconscious Heatran, then spoke to Ash in a confident tone.
