Pokémon, you're not allowed to expel me from human form!

Seeing Karen's face turn red again, Rocco placed his hand on his pendant.

So, should we fight?

"beat!"

When Roco mentioned the Pokémon battles, Karen's face was still flushed, but her smile had indeed returned to its lively state.

Seeing her like this, Luo Ke nodded and released Mewtwo.

This is the wilderness; there are no trainer platforms or protective barriers.

But with Mewtwo around, none of these are problems.

With its innate ability to materialize mental energy, constructing a protective barrier is a simple matter of a thought, and it could easily create two trainer platforms.

Kallen, who had just said she wanted to fight Roko, widened her eyes in surprise at Mewtwo's earth-shattering performance.

Was I too reckless just now?

We're going to fight this Pokémon called Mewtwo... Really?

That's what she was thinking.

But just as Ningya perceived her, would someone who could forcefully pull Magikarp into the main team be weak?

No, I don't.

So even though she didn't think she and her friends could defeat Mewtwo, Kallen didn't back down.

Milos saw through Karen's thoughts and understood her, so he closed his eyes, lowered his head slightly, and seemed to sigh softly.

Then it followed the river to Kallen's side and stopped behind her. If it was for Kallen, it would even face Mewtwo to help!

Magikarp is the epitome of ignorance of the universe.

Its somewhat dull eyes could not possibly show fear. Whatever Kallen told it to do, it did. Not to mention Mewtwo, even if you were facing Arceus, it would dare to use its Leap Move!

It has nothing to do with courage, willpower, spirit, or anything like that.

When asked, the answer was simply that they didn't know him.

After marveling at Mewtwo's power, Kallen pulled Roko over while Mewtwo was setting up the arena and taught him all the methods of using Aura power recorded in her family.

These are things that her family has to memorize from a young age.

Carmen can recite it too.

Karen never imagined that she would actually be able to use it one day.

As Luo Ke listened to Karen's teachings, and with an existing impression of waveguide users in his mind, he discovered that Karen's ancestors were indeed quite something.

Using waveguides for offense and defense, communication, projection, etc., are just basic applications, nothing fancy.

The truly powerful part is actually the enhancement of the Pokémon.

In Luo Ke's understanding, Aura could be used to enhance Pokémon, and even more than that, it could activate some special objects, and the method was to completely transfer the power of Aura to the other party.

It's not about exchanging power with Ditto, but about using a part of one's own life to carry the power of the Aura, then connecting through resonance, and finally transmitting it.

This method does not restrict the target of transmission, and the transmitted power is much more effective than ordinary waveguide power.

But it can be very damaging to waveguide users, and could even be fatal.

The method left by the ancestor Kokaren is different.

It contains a complete set of methods for sensing the frequencies of other things. Given that the waveguides of each Pokémon, each person, and even each plant are different, this method is used to determine the frequencies of other things.

Then, a corresponding method is used to simulate other frequencies using waveguide force output to the outside of the body to complete the frequency modulation, ultimately resonating with things that have frequencies.

This kind of resonance is different from the resonance of a high degree of compatibility.

The latter is due to their high frequency similarity, so it is a resonance between themselves.

The former occurs when everyone's power frequencies align, allowing them to enhance the Pokémon's power or moves through resonance.

It is a technique that can only be developed when one has a very deep understanding of resonance.

Similarly, if you were to teach this to someone else, it would take them a very long time to learn it, and they wouldn't be able to learn it until they fully understood resonance.

Koroko is different.

His perception and control abilities are too strong, and he has enough waveguide power.

After finding the right method, he tried it a few times and gradually understood it.

With Mewtwo's mental assistance, it probably only took him about an hour to completely master the technique.

This also deepened his understanding of waveguides and resonance significantly.

So, he and Karen both stepped onto the Trainer's Platform.

The platform where Rocco stood was on the ground, with land in front of him, where the Ditto that had transformed into his appearance was standing.

Kallen's platform was deliberately placed in the water by Mewtwo, surrounded by water. She herself was placed on the platform by Milotic, and in front of her, Magikarp emerged from the water.

At that moment, Karen's voice reached Rocco's side.

"I am the former gym leader of the Ripple Gym."

"In the past, when facing challengers, I used the classic water-based tactics, namely the heat-up tactic."

"Although I am familiar with this tactic, it is too slow to start. It is the responsibility of a gym leader to give challengers room to perform when facing them, but I cannot choose this tactic when facing a strong opponent like you, Roco."

"Instead, I will use my favorite, and also a popular, water-based tactic – the tornado tactic!"

"So, Luo Ke, please be careful."

After saying all this, Karen displayed a seriousness and focus completely different from her previous demeanor.

At this point, Rocco also gained a completely new understanding of Karen.

He doesn't dislike Karen.

Karen may not be the smartest, but Roko can't bring himself to dislike a silly, beautiful girl who, despite possessing a Gym Leader-level Pokémon, would rather beg for food than use its power to do anything when she's hungry.

At most, I'm sometimes speechless because of her stupidity, that's all.

This is the kind of Karen who, though simple-minded, is determined, courageous, and energetic.

So as long as she takes what interests her seriously, she can immediately devote all her attention and enthusiasm to it, even though she doesn't have many thoughts to begin with.

"What a formidable opponent."

"So Ditto, let's put the power of Aura into actual combat and test it out."

'Well!'

......

13. Numerical battles are always brutal.

Neither Rocco nor Karen planned to play for too long, so they set the rules as a two-on-two singles match, a format that allowed for easy tactical execution without taking too long.

And so... the match begins!

"Magikarp, use Leap!"

Karen immediately gave Rocco an instruction that was somewhat unfamiliar to him.

Although many tactics in this world impressed him after he transmigrated, Karen's approach was the most unfamiliar to him.

This is a Magikarp trainer.

He starts by jumping... and it's completely impossible to tell what he's going to do.

Without Rocco saying a word, Ditto charged straight out.

It clenched its fist and used the aura power that Roko had given it to sense everything in front of it, precisely locking onto the Magikarp leaping in the splashes and waves.

'Well!'

He was already an expert swimmer.

So Ditto completely ignored Kallen's Water Terrain area, decisively dived into the water, seized the opportunity, and punched Magikarp.

Faced with such an attack, Magikarp made no other move, simply maintaining its leaping motion in the waves, so agile, so swift...

Magikarp, which is inferior in both strength and speed among its peers, is now making full use of its only advantage.

Excellent jumping ability.

Use jumps to accelerate, and use jumps to attack!

Bump!

Propelled by the waves, Magikarp crashed into Ditto's fist.

boom!

Miracles don't happen by chance.

Rocco could tell that Karen's Magikarp had undergone extremely rigorous training in order to transform the characteristics of the Leap move into speed and power; the difficulty of that was enough to make one's scalp tingle.

but...

Ditto has never slacked off!

Using Roco's transformation, which boasts exceptional stats for its class, and undergoing targeted training from the bunny-like Victini, Roco still strives to secure its place within his team...

In its battle against Magikarp, it is by no means the challenger.

It has no reason to lose!

Snapped!

Ditto remained in its punching stance, while Magikarp was slammed back into the water by Ditto at an even faster speed than it had come!

At the same time, due to the power of the Aura, Ditto is no longer blinded by things like sand, water, or flashes of light. With its eyes closed in mid-air, Magikarp's location underwater appears directly in its mind.

So it continued its attack.

boom!

Ditto, transformed into its Roko form, slammed into the water like a bomb. Using both hands, it grabbed Magikarp's tail and then twisted its body, pulling the struggling Magikarp with tremendous force, trying to drag it ashore in one fell swoop!

Ditto, born near water, knows that for Pokémon like Magikarp, their fighting power is greatly weakened once they are taken out of the water.

Even if the Heavenly Martial Killing Path doesn't record any methods for killing a Pokémon like Magikarp, Ditto is confident that it can end the battle directly by relying on its original skill, Slam.

Karen pursed her lips as she watched the Ditto swim toward land.

The situation on the field at this moment was indeed somewhat beyond her expectations.

After all, the reason her Magikarp can be included in the main team is because of its stats. This kind of simple and unpretentious strength should be the most durable and least likely to cause problems.

That's why Kallen chose it for the initial tactical construction.

But she never expected that before she could even begin her tactics, Magikarp would be completely overwhelmed to this extent!

Hmm...it seems that competing with him on numerical values ​​was a mistake.

Thinking of this, Karen looked at her Z-Bracelet.

Her Z-Bracelet has a rotating wheel; turning it allows her to switch to Z-Crystals.

This design is intended for switching tactics on the battlefield.

The two Z-pure crystals she brought were a regular Z and a water Z.

If she wants to stick to this point of comparing stats, then she should support Magikarp with a normal Z-jump now, so that Magikarp can use Z-jump!

She had tested it; Magikarp using Z-Jump would increase its power three times!

When combined with the leaping move, it's equivalent to increasing speed three times over.

They might still be able to compete with Ditto in terms of stats by then.

As long as Magikarp can stand firm, it can fight Ditto while also using its power to devise tactics.

but...

Is it really possible?

Karen hesitated.

So in the end, she loosened her clenched fist.
