Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master

It's much more powerful than a regular Pikachu.

Despite this, Xiaoming's face did not show any discouragement; on the contrary, his expression was very determined.

"Ash, my life motto is that even if I'm ugly, I will struggle to the very end for victory."

Xiao Ming took out his Poké Ball and said, "Come and see my struggle."

"You're very strong. I really enjoyed playing against you. It was a lot of fun."

Ash responded to his words with a smile.

Let's bring smiles to everyone's faces through Pokémon battles!

Apart from Ash, Decade is undoubtedly the strongest player in this tournament.

Unfortunately, he ran into Ash.

"I won't give up easily, I'll keep going with Beedrill!"

"I've chosen Charizard!"

Scarred Beedrill reappeared on the field, still affected by the wounds from its previous battle with Ash's Beedrill.

However, its speed on the field is still quite astonishing.

Ash sent out Charizard, which was making its first appearance in this match.

Seeing its opponent, a giant needle-like creature covered in hideous scars, Charizard's eyes lit up with eager anticipation.

This thing looks very strong, and it gets happy whenever it encounters a strong opponent.

"Beedrill, use Swords Dance!"

At this moment, Ash revealed the Key Stone on his wrist. He had long ago made the Charizard Y's evolution stone into a decoration and put it on Charizard's tail.

"Charizard Mega Evolution!"

Several beams of light connected the two stones, and the Charizard's body emitted a dazzling white light.

Mega Charizard Y retains the same color as before, but its tail and wings have become longer, and small wings have grown on its wrists.

"Beedrill uses its deadly sting!"

"The fire-breathing dragon uses hot air."

Although Xiaoming's Beedrill might be a little faster than Charizard, Xiaozhi doesn't intend to let Charizard compete with it in speed.

You can directly command Charizard to use a heat attack with a wider range. After evolving, the power of Charizard's Heat Attack is greatly increased.

When Beedrill charged at Charizard, it was immediately blown away by the hot air.

Unfortunately, Beedrill also unexpectedly triggered a burning effect, and flames erupted on its body.

It turned into a black charcoal and swayed as it fell to the ground.

"Beedrill has lost its ability to fight."

Seeing its opponent defeated so easily, the fire-breathing dragon's nose practically popped out of its head.

It immediately let out a celebratory roar and shot a bolt of fire into the sky.

"Xiao Ming only has two Pokémon left. Is there any way for him to turn the tide and win?"

"Let's go, Double Gas!"

It looked like a double-explosive gas bomb, consisting of two gas bombs of different sizes connected together.

"How is this Pokémon going to deal with my Charizard?" Ash was a little confused about what Ming was doing.

"Charizard, use Flamethrower!"

"Dual-explosive gas uses black mist."

The two eggs quickly opened their mouths together, spewing out puffs of black smoke that filled the entire battlefield.

Its figure quickly disappeared into the smoke, and Charizard's flamethrower missed its target for a moment.

"The fire-breathing dragon used its wings to blow away the black smoke."

Unfortunately, there was just too much black smoke. The fire-breathing dragon flapped its wings several times, and even though it temporarily dispersed the smoke, new black smoke would soon gather.

"In that case, Charizard, let's fly up there."

Although black smoke filled the entire venue, it did not reach the air.

The fire-breathing dragon flapped its large wings and burst out of the smoke-shrouded area, soaring into the sky.

However, looking down from here, the entire area was still shrouded in black smoke, and Charizard's flamethrowers fired several times but could not find the Weezing.

From within the smoke, accompanied by the sound of Xiaoming's whip, mud bombs would occasionally be launched at the fire-breathing dragon in the air.

Seeing this, Ash immediately used Aura Sensing to locate the location of the Weezing in the field.

Sure enough, he quickly located the double-explosive gas in the smoke.

"Charizard aims at the lower left of the arena and uses Fire Blast!"

"Same fate!"

"what?"

A large, T-shaped attack made of flames was launched into the smoke, but at the same time a white circle of light also hit the fire-breathing dragon flying in the air.

The flames struck the massive heatwave from the double-gas, sending black smoke billowing across the field, from which emerged the iconic mosquito coil.

But at the same time, a white light flashed on Charizard's body, and it fell from the sky.

"Charizard, both Weezing attacks have rendered you incapable of battle!"

The effect of the "Shared Fate" move is that if you are attacked and lose your ability to fight after using it, your status will also be transferred to your opponent.

It's a kind of suicidal move; it used a weak Weezing to take down Ash's Charizard.

Xiaoming did a pretty good job this time.

"When Charizard wakes up later, it will be furious." Ash could already foresee Charizard's expression.

It must be resentful of being defeated like this.

"You're doing a great job struggling, Xiaoming."

"Let's go back to the field, Pikachu."

"I'm leaving everything to you, Sandslash!" Like Ash, Xiaoming didn't get any starter Pokémon at first.

This Sandslash is the first Pokémon that accompanied Xiaoming on his journey as a Pokémon Trainer, starting with Sandshrew.

It is also Xiaoming's strongest Pokémon.

"Pangolin, use Earthquake."

Sandslash lived up to its reputation as Xiaoming's strongest Pokémon; with a stomp of its foot, cracks like spider webs immediately appeared on the ground around it.

The venue seemed to be experiencing a real earthquake, and the surrounding audience and staff were so frightened that they wanted to run away.

Oh, the staff member was referring to Kojiro and his group.

"Ah, an earthquake!" Musashi, Kojiro, and Meowth all huddled together in fear.

"Meow, run!"

Seeing their embarrassing state, Sundae couldn't help but punch each of them.

"Have you had enough, you idiots?"

Back on the battlefield, Ash quickly regained his balance amidst the earthquake and gave instructions to Pikachu.

"Jump up."

The Pangolin's every move is incredibly powerful; it certainly can't just stand there and take the earthquake head-on.

With a powerful leap, Pikachu immediately soared into the air.

"Use Iron Tail!"

Its tail gleamed metallic again as it lashed out at the top of Sandslash's head below.

At this moment, Xiaoming's whip came out again.

With a flick of its whip, the Sandslash King immediately shrank into a ball and rolled across the field at an extremely fast speed.

Pikachu's Iron Tail failed to hit Sandslash, but only created a large crater in Sandslash's original spot.

"Pikachu, Quick Attack!" Ash wanted Pikachu to chase after the rolling Sandslash.

But then Xiaoming lashed out with his whip again, and the Mountain King immediately stopped and used Earthquake again.

The earthquake caused enormous damage, and even Pikachu's little face looked a bit sore.

"Pikachu, jump again."

Just as Pikachu jumped, Sand King started rolling again.

This won't do; we're completely falling into Xiaoming's rhythm.

"This time, we'll use a volt attack."

Even though Electric-type moves can't damage Sandslash, the high speed from Volt Attack still allows Pikachu to catch up with Sandslash.

Although the lightning from the "enchantment" is ineffective, the physical attacks are real.

With a bang, Sandslash was knocked away by Pikachu, and its rolling was forcibly stopped.

"Take this opportunity, Pikachu uses Iron Tail."

Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Xiaoming finally threw down the whip and couldn't help but speak up to give the order.

"The Pangolin uses its Steel Claws!"

Sandslash's claws gleamed with a metallic sheen and collided with Pikachu's steel tail, producing a loud, piercing squeak.

Although it was a bit difficult, Sandslash was trying to overcome Ground-type's fear of water in response to Xiaoming's expectations.

It successfully withstood Pikachu's Iron Tail attack.

But it was only temporary. The ground beneath Pangolin's feet kept sinking, and it was starting to give way.

"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"

The electric current struck Sandslash but caused no damage; however, it reacted in a special way with the energy from Steel Claws and Iron Tail's attacks.

An explosion occurred with a bang at the point where their claws and tails made contact.

Smoke enveloped Pikachu and Sandslash.

"Pikachu, Iron Tail!"

"Pangolin, roll away!"

But the Pangolin that finally emerged from the smoke and dust collapsed to the ground.

"Sandslash is unable to battle. The winner of this match is Ash!"

At that moment, fireworks went off all at once in the Quartz Convention venue, and the audience's applause reached its loudest point yet.

"The Kanto League champion of the Indigo League finals has finally emerged! He is none other than Ash from Pallet Town!"

Amidst the surrounding noise of celebration, Xiaoming approached Xiaozhi and shook his hand deeply.

"I have lost. My training is far from sufficient. I look forward to fighting you again next time."

"I also look forward to playing against you again."
