"You said it!"

What's wrong with this gym leader?

"Let me prove to you how powerful Bug-type Pokémon are!"

"Enter, Ariados!"

A huge pink spider appeared on the battlefield, startling Misty, who was watching from behind Ash, into letting out a sharp scream.

Poor Pear Blossom, standing beside her, could only cover her ears and play the role of a silent girl.

"We need you to deal with Bug-types. Go, Toilet King, use Flamethrower!"

The first Pokémon Ash sent out was Cyndaquil.

"Nino~~"

Unfortunately, the slow-starting Cyndaquil couldn't muster any fighting spirit when it first entered the arena; it just yawned and opened its mouth in vain.

Not a single spark could be fired.

"Sigh, I knew this would happen. Cyndaquil, use Tackle."

As expected, you still can't use fire-type skills as soon as you enter the battle.

But it's okay, Ash didn't expect Cyndaquil to come to the Speed ​​Gym anyway, he sent it out mainly to gain experience.

Fortunately, Cyndaquil is agile and fast enough that it is not completely useless when it cannot use Fire-type moves.

The slow-starting impact rapidly approached Ariados.

"It's impossible for you to defeat my Ariados with this, Tusi!"

The pink spider uses its mouth to spit out strong silk threads, swinging around in an environment full of trees, just like Spider-Man.

They dodged the Cyndaquil's charge attack.

"They can make good use of the environment, and the speed of Pokémon when using String Shot is amazing."

"He claims to be a master of Bug-type Pokémon, and it seems he's not just bragging." Rika gave Abi a good evaluation.

"What kind of experts are they? They're all just insects!"

The way Ariados swung around made Misty even more frightened. "Ash, defeat him quickly!"

I'll try my best.

"Ariados used Silk Spin again."

Several white projectiles struck around the Fireball Rat, transforming into white threads that wrapped around its body.

The speed of the Cyndaquil has been greatly reduced.

"Now! Ariados, use your poison needle attack!"

Cyndaquil was stuck in the sticky threads and couldn't escape.

In this way, Cyndaquil's agility cannot be utilized, so Ash directly uses Challenger's Privilege.

The Fireball Raccoon was recalled, thus avoiding the poison needle.

"Fine, just let him out to gain some experience, and your mission will be complete."

Since it's a Pokémon that Ash just caught recently, he still needs to train it more.

"I choose you, Scizor!"

The red, horned Pokémon that's a multiple of three is the one Ash specially prepared for this gym challenge.

"Both sides are Bug-type, it's a Bug-type Pokémon internal battle."

Although Abi was somewhat arrogant, Ash acknowledged his love for Bug-type Pokémon.

He enjoys battling trainers like that, and he always makes sure to defeat them using their best Pokémon.

"Compared to this, Scizor is actually so much cooler!" Xiaoxia accepted Scizor from the bottom of her heart.

The poor giant spider was rejected because of its ugliness.

"Wow, this Pokémon is really amazing. Ash, so you also have some pretty good Bug-type Pokémon."

"I'm very impressed with you!"

"Of course! I'm going to become a Pokémon Master, and I want to train Pokémon of all types!"

Upon seeing Ash take out a Bug-type Pokémon, Abi immediately showed an excited expression.

He picked up the camera around his neck and started taking pictures like crazy until the referee coughed.

"Oh, sorry, I forgot we're still in the middle of a challenge match."

"Aridos continues to use the silk-spitting attack."

"The Scizor used Swords Dance to deflect all those silk threads!"

Swinging among the trees on the field, Alidos, cosplaying as Spider-Man, shot out several more webs.

The scyther simply spun around calmly, performing a sword dance.

Using its sword-fighting movements, it easily cut off all the spider silk that tried to entangle it.

"what?"

"This kind of attack is completely useless against Scizor." Ash gained a boost for nothing.

"Go, Scizor! Bullet Punch!"

Red disappeared from the field in an instant, and then suddenly reappeared behind Ariados.

"Such a powerful attack, we can't dodge it! Ariados, let's face it head-on and use the Cross Poison Blade!"

Aridos's tactic of drifting through the forest can only bully Cyndaquil; it's completely ineffective against the much stronger Scizor.

The bullet punch bypassed the cross-shaped poison blade and struck Ariados from below, easily hitting him and knocking him back onto the field.

"Now, Scizor, use the X-Scissors!"

The scyther quickly rushed to the fallen Ariados and swiftly struck at the head with its crossed pincers.

With a loud bang, the attack produced a considerable explosion, and Scizor floated cleanly back to Ash's half of the field along the blast wave.

The entire process was clean and beautiful, without a single unnecessary movement.

"It's perfect. Watching Pokémon battles like this is a real treat."

While Abi was still basking in the moment, the referee walked over and raised the flag in his hand.

"Ariados is unable to fight, and Scizor wins this battle."

"Oh no, I forgot we're still in battle. Ash is so cunning."

"To use such a cool Bug-type Pokémon like Scizor to distract me, what a powerful and despicable opponent!"

"Hey, you were the one who got drawn in, and you're trying to blame me."

"I'm not going to give up the title of Bug-type Pokémon Master!"

What's with this Bug Caterpillar's final evolution?!

"Since you've brought out such an amazing Pokémon, I guess I have to get serious too." Abi pulled out a new Poké Ball from his pocket.

"Now I'll use you, Metapod!"

"Hmm?" Abi sent out a Pokémon that no one expected.

"Metapod usually only hardens, so what's the point of sending it up here?" Ash was a little confused.

"Let me give you some advice: don't underestimate my armored pupa."

"Mantis, Bullet Punch."

"Metallica uses a ramming attack."

Ash thinks that Pencil sending out Metapod is just for laughs, and that he will easily win this round again.

Unexpectedly, Abi's Metapod actually moved, and it moved so fast under such a hard shell.

The pincers of Metapod and Scizor collided violently, and the resulting explosion engulfed both Pokémon in flames.

The Scizor was the first to slide backward from the center of the explosion, while the Metapod appeared to be completely unharmed.

"See? This is the power of the Bug-type Pokémon I've carefully trained."

"Metapod, use Iron Wall followed by Ram!"

That's what they say, but in reality, their attacks are limited to collision skills.

"Scizor, use Bullet Punch to hit back."

The large red pincers swung forward, striking the armored pupa and sending it flying.

The armored pupa bounced back and forth like a three-dimensional pinball in the woods next to the arena, and then miraculously bounced back again.

It attacks the Scizor at extremely high speed.

Caught off guard, the scyther was hit by this attack and suffered considerable damage.

"How could this be? Scizor, watch out!"

After striking the scythe, the armored pupa quickly bounced between the trees before suddenly attacking again.

It's impossible to guard against.

"Haha, how about it, Ash? My Metapod has been a Metapod for 5 years now."

"Its grade and hardness are beyond your imagination!" Abi said proudly.

"What's there to be proud of?"

"And does your Metapod really want to stay Metapod forever?"

Metapod is known for its rapid evolution, and to be a Metapod for 5 years...

Xiao Zhi's gaze towards A Bi sharpened.

"What do you mean by that look? Of course, it's because the armored pupa didn't want to do it."

"Do you think it's because I didn't want it to evolve into Butterfree?"

Just thinking about it brings tears to my eyes. I was practically begging Metapod to evolve back then.

However, the armored pod has now become a unique trump card in his hand.

"Besides, I planted these trees here specifically for this purpose, Xiao Zhi, what are you going to do about it?" Abi was quite pleased with his clever idea.

Many dojo challengers have been defeated by this move of his.

This guy, Abi, is truly a master of Bug-type Pokémon, having trained Bug-type Pokémon to this level.

"But if this keeps going, won't it never end?" Ash observed Metapod's movements intently.

Finally seizing the opportunity, "the scyther used its pincers to grab the armored pupa, pinning it to the ground and then using its beam cannon!"

Upon hearing Ash's command, Scizor seized the opportunity and extended its large pincers as Metapod charged at it once again.

It clamped its jaws firmly onto the armored pupa, but the impact of the rammed creature was considerable, causing the scyther to slide backward several meters across the field.

But it held on in the end, quickly clamping the armored pupa down to the ground, the energy waves in its pincers converging.

Cannon beam cannon fires at extremely close range!

"What? They actually managed to seize this opportunity?" Abi was shocked.

It was a very simple and crude method to crack the code, but he was the only one who succeeded in doing so, and he had only met Xiao Zhi.

When the explosion of the cannon fire subsided, the Metapod under the Scizor's pincers was covered in dust and unable to fight.

The referee immediately waved the flag, announcing, "The Scizor wins this game!"

“You did very well, Metapod.”

Recalling the Metapod from the field, Abi took out her third Poké Ball.

"Ash, it's been a long time since anyone has asked me to send out a third Pokémon. I take back what I said before, you're not an unskilled trainer."

"It's more accurate to say that someone who can raise a Scizor so well must be an exceptionally skilled trainer!"

"Your criteria seem a bit off, don't you? You only look at the training level of Bug-type Pokémon?"
