I caught a Pokémon

It now appears that Giratina, Shaymin, and the villains are all in the same space, and it seems the time has come to resolve this matter.

The only drawback is that having only one Giratina is a bit too weak. It would have been better if Dialga from before, or Regigigas from later, had also appeared. That way, his Deoxys could have really been trained.

Xia You was stunned as soon as she had this thought.

This is the second time I've had this question.

When did I become so hard to satisfy?

Just like Dialga and Palkia before, this is Giratina, the mythical Pokémon of Sinnoh, a Pokémon that most people would never encounter in their entire lives. How come it seems like some minor character in my eyes now, and I'm even thinking about having another opponent?

When he came to his senses, he truly realized that the change in the Pokémon's strength had brought about a fundamental change in his mindset.

So these Pokémon standing at the very top of the world are truly no longer something he can look up to...

Fortunately, after expressing his feelings many times, he gradually accepted the situation. In fact, this may be the last time he expresses such feelings. After today's battle, although he will still be the man who seems gentle and refined to everyone, he will have stepped away from the chessboard and stood in the position of the chess players.

Of course, this doesn't mean that the player became some kind of behind-the-scenes manipulator, but rather that he has the power to refuse and change most things he doesn't like, and can be free from threats from most humans and Pokémon.

The thought flashed through Xia You's mind.

Before Ash and his friends could even hide and avoid the silver-haired man, Giratina reappeared with a roar!

At the same time, Mu Xuan's voice rang out beside them.

"Why are you back again!?"

Turning their heads, they saw that in the distance, in a crevice formed by piled-up ruins, the monkey-type doctor Mu Xuan, whom they had just parted ways with, was looking at them with a complicated expression. He seemed not to have expected to see them here again after only half a day.

Why did he go through all that trouble to send them out in the first place?

That's probably what he's thinking about right now.

However, Mu Xuan's attention was soon drawn to the silver-haired man in the sky.

He stared at the man for several seconds, then sighed softly.

“Jero…”

Ash and his friends didn't hear Professor Mu Xuan's low murmur. Sensing Giratina getting closer and closer, they rushed to his side to avoid the charging Giratina.

However, when they turned around, they found that there was still one person and one Pokémon who hadn't dodged and were still standing in the same spot.

And that person, needless to say, was Xia You, which was not surprising. But the Pokémon was Shaymin in Sky Form!

Not only that, Shaymi actually took the initiative to meet Giratina and stood in front of it.

'Giratina! Let's settle this!'

Seeing how serious it was, one has to admit that it was quite impressive compared to its previous behavior. Especially Ash and his friends in the distance, seeing its confident and brave appearance, were all looking at Shaymin with excited eyes, their anticipation seemingly waiting for it to display its great power.

Under their watchful eyes, Shaymin opened his mouth, condensed and unleashed a Grass-type move, 'Energy Ball,' which streaked through the air with a green light and struck Giratina's body.

boom!

The explosion sent up a cloud of gray-black smoke that obscured most of Giratina's body.

But when the smoke cleared, Giratina was still floating there unharmed, as if the attack had left no mark at all.

This feeling was like Shaymi getting angry for a moment, but only for a moment. Its retaliation and enthusiasm vanished like smoke that had just disappeared, seemingly with the breeze.

However, Shemi was not discouraged. Seeing that the first attack had failed, he gathered his strength for another attack.

But at that moment, Giratina once again demonstrated its power, disappearing right in front of Shaymin. By the time Shaymin reacted, Giratina had already appeared not far away and charged at it!

Shaymin was hit squarely and, quite unfortunately, plummeted downwards. However, it quickly adjusted its posture, stabilized its body, and returned to the sky.

This scene terrified Ash and his friends.

Their initial anticipation has turned into worry.

Fortunately, Shaymin, being a Mythical Pokémon, possesses formidable physical abilities. Despite the collision, it seemed to be unharmed. However, just as it was about to launch another attack on Giratina, a flash of light appeared on its body, and it transformed from its nimble 'flying pony' form back into its previous round 'hedgehog' form, plummeting from the sky!

Ash had considered that Shaymin would win, Shaymin would lose, and Shaymin would neither win nor lose, but he never expected that Shaymin would break down.

And this happened right at the start of the battle.

He was about to catch Shemi, but before he could take a step, a shadow flashed past him, and Xiao Guang ran out first and caught Shemi steadily in his arms.

Although he was taken aback, he didn't think much of it. He just looked at Xie Mi in Xiao Guang's arms with a puzzled expression.

Why did it turn back?

"Because Shemi can't maintain its sky form at night, it can only fly during the day." Mu Xuan was also taken aback, but he quickly explained.

Only then did Ash and his friends turn around and realize that the inverted space had indeed become much deeper, as if shrouded in night.

So, it turns out you can distinguish between day and night here too...

But since Shamy reverts to its ground form at night, even if they leave the flower field, where can they fly to in a day? In the end, won't they just revert to their ground form anyway?

However, these were not things to be investigated at the moment. Seeing that Xiao Guang had already run back here, they thought they should leave first and wait until they found a safe place to talk about it.

But when he looked up and saw that Xia You was still standing there, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but call out anxiously, "Brother Xia You, let's leave here first!"

In his opinion, although Xia You was very powerful, this was the legendary Giratina, and not someone that one person could deal with.

In the distance, Xia You turned around and waved to him.

Actually, he had already decided to clash with Giratina here, but...

Looking up at the distant sky, Xia You wondered what the silver-haired man was up to, who had been quietly watching her ever since she entered this world.

Despite thinking this, he still calmly took out Deoxys's Advanced Ball.

Because the story is so far in the past, he has forgotten how the event will end, but as he said before, it has nothing to do with him.

Of course, he had no intention of revealing his information in front of these people.

He lowered his hand, and as he released it, the Ultra Ball in his hand fell downwards. At the very moment it hit the ground, Gengar's short, thick arm emerged from the shadows, firmly grasped the Ultra Ball, and silently disappeared, heading to another place.

Because he was far away from everyone, and because his movements were easy and discreet, almost no one noticed what he was doing.

As if doing something casual, he took out a Poké Ball from his waist bag and released his Pokémon in front of everyone.

With a flash of blue light, his Gardevoir appeared before him.

From Ash's perspective, although they didn't see Gengar, they only saw Gardevoir appear. Despite their surprise, they immediately understood that Xia You really wanted to have a match with this Giratina!

This made Hikari and Satoshi worry.

Even if Xia You is strong, this is still Giratina. Can his Gardevoir really defeat it?

Little did they know, Xia You was only doing this to cover her tracks.

He released Gardevoir in front of the group and then sent Deoxys away, creating the illusion that the upcoming Deoxys had nothing to do with him!

Chapter 1028 Gardevoir, let's go!

In fact, Xia You never intended to truly hide her trump card from Xiao Zhi and Xiao Guang.

After all, he knew these two people's personalities very well. He knew that even if they knew something, they wouldn't go around talking about it, much less expose it.

Previously, whenever action was needed, there were either outsiders present or it was in a public place, like now, with Mu Xuan and that silver-haired man present, which was inconvenient. Therefore, he went to the trouble of using a sneak attack, openly using Gardevoir to fight Giratina, and then secretly using Deoxys to suddenly appear and take over the battlefield.

Anyway, unless they saw him release Deoxys with their own eyes, Mu Xuan and that silver-haired man would never know that the Pokémon belonged to him.

It can be said that he took caution to the extreme, genuinely wanting to avoid any unexpected troubles on his journey, especially in the face of such a villain.

Putting all that aside, Giratina charged forward again at that moment.

And its target was none other than Shemi, who was in Xiao Guang's arms!

However, it was stopped by Gardevoir after flying only halfway, and had to stop its momentum.

Gardevoir is far superior to Shaymin, who is only half-baked.

Faced with a powerful psychic attack that suddenly shot out from beneath him, Giratina instinctively sensed the threat even though it couldn't see the trajectory of the psychic attack. It then twisted its massive body and nimbly dodged the attack.

It was at this moment that it turned its gaze to Gardevoir in the open space and began to cautiously examine the Pokémon that had suddenly appeared.

From its small, barely 1.6-meter-tall body, Giratina sensed a suppressed but powerful strength.

Although this feeling wasn't as strong as Dialga's, it still garnered enough attention for it. Moreover, for a Pokémon that had long since incorporated the entire Reverse Dimension into its territory, the sudden appearance of such a Pokémon made it strongly feel the threatening sense of its territory being violated!

Its gaze swept between Shaymin and Gardevoir, and after a moment's hesitation, it abandoned Shaymin and pounced straight at Gardevoir.

It seems that in its eyes, nothing is more important than protecting its territory.

This was exactly what Xia You wanted to do. Seeing this, he stopped paying attention to other things and focused all his attention on the Hades Dragon.

Gardevoir's one-on-one battle against Giratina was not like his usual small skirmishes, gym battles, or tournament battles, which were simple for him. Instead, it was a major battle where the slightest mistake could lead to total defeat.

And it must be admitted that Gardevoir has not grown enough yet, and there is still a certain gap between it and a mythical Pokémon like Giratina. Therefore, he appeared particularly serious and focused in this battle.

Putting Deoxys aside, Xia You also wanted to see how her regular team differed from such a mythical Pokémon.

This must have stirred up his competitive spirit.

Before he could think any further, Giratina was already close by. Without needing to give any orders, Gardevoir raised both arms as soon as the thought crossed his mind.

Gardevoir, let's go!

Almost instantly, a surge of power erupted from its hand, meeting Giratina head-on.

It has to be said that perhaps because it has spent so much time with Pokémon like Deoxys and Rayquaza, Gardevoir is no longer bound by rigid moves when battling and training. It has begun to try to change, attempting to unleash the power within its body at will. Although it was very difficult at first, with the guidance of Deoxys, another Psychic-type Pokémon, it has finally begun to understand the basics and is slowly figuring things out.

It's not that this ability made it stronger, but rather that it broke the established rules and regulations, freeing it from some constraints, making attacks easier and more casual.

Normally, Gardevoir wouldn't use this method in a regular battle, but clearly, the current situation doesn't allow for such considerations.

Giratina didn't dodge; instead, it spewed out a deep, dark energy, clashing with Gardevoir's energy blast.

The two energies, one to the left and one to the right, one high and one low, collided in mid-air, creating a powerful explosion and shockwave that swept outwards, clearing away nearby rubble and purple gas clouds. Even the group of Magnemite in the distance swayed under the impact.

In the distance, Ash and his friends stopped running and just watched from a distance.

Watching Xia You's clothes fluttering in the air currents, watching his hair being blown by the air, watching his resolute gaze fixed straight ahead.

Mu Xuan seemed surprised that someone dared to fight Giratina like this. He was about to tell Xia You to leave quickly, but after seeing what he was about to do, before he could speak, Yami shook her head at him.

Although it was the first time Yami had met Mu Xuan, she would absolutely not let him disturb Xia You's enjoyment.

The meaning in her eyes was self-evident: she wanted Mu Xuanjing to observe the situation.

This surprised Mu Xuan, who opened his mouth in surprise. However, seeing that the people around him were all watching the battlefield nervously, he didn't say anything more and instead focused his attention on the man again.

how……

Judging from their expressions, these people all seem to trust him.

Is he so strong that he can rival Giratina?

Aside from the bewildered Mu Xuan, Xiao Guang was the most nervous among them.

Compared to Ash and Brock, she knew the least about Xia You. Although she had always known that Xia You was very powerful, she had never personally witnessed any major battles. Now, seeing Xia You take the initiative to meet Giratina, and given that her mindset had changed, she nervously clenched her fists along with him!

This is a feeling I would never have had before!

Xiao Guang was unaware of all this, but kept his eyes fixed on Xia You in the arena, his mood rising and falling with Xia You and Gardevoir's movements, his eyes filled with worry.

They were worried that Xia You might get hurt, and also that she might be overconfident.

Xia You naturally didn't notice any changes in the expressions of the people around him. In fact, he didn't care what they were thinking at all.

Under his command, Gardevoir launched wave after wave of attacks, displaying an aggressive desire that had never been shown in previous battles.

He can be steady and calm, but right now he's only thinking about attacking! Attacking! And attacking again!

Gardevoir, united with his beliefs, carried out the instructions of the man who had won the three regional tournaments to the very end.

Its body darts and moves, and it uses the superpower of teleportation with unparalleled skill. Even though this is Giratina's home ground and even though the latter can fly, it not only resisted Giratina's counterattack in the early stages by using its psychic abilities and exquisite performance, but also created a small climax, forcing Giratina to retreat repeatedly!

This greatly shocked Mu Xuan.

He wasn't a dull scholar who knew nothing about combat; otherwise, he wouldn't have survived here for so long with a Dunkaku dragon.

He never expected that Giratina, this Giratina, would be evenly matched with a trainer using only one Pokémon in the Reverse Space, on its own home turf!

Chapter 1029 Ordered to Defeat!

Explosions kept occurring, shaking this inverted world.

Gardevoir's figure flickered frequently under Giratina's attacks, then found a weak spot to launch an attack. However, these elusive moves did not achieve much effect, and most of the time Giratina nimbly dodged them with its biological instincts.
