Chapter 1110: Regieleki, Thunder Cage!!
2024-05-15 Author: Samsung Charmander
Bang!!
A red light flashed, and the second Pokémon Winona sent out was a large, blue-and-white seabird. Its wide, thick, yellow beak took up almost two-thirds of its body.
"Her second is a Pelipper, huh."
Ash didn't pull out his Pokedex, simply stating the Pokémon's name.
How ridiculous. Another Water/Flying-type, with a quadruple weakness that would practically melt from a single electric shock.
However, judging by Winona's expression, this time would be different from her Gyarados…
"Regieleki, let's keep going!"
The second match began!
"Regieleki, use Shock Wave!"
Ash still opted for Shock Wave as his opening move. It was an Electric-type version of Aerial Ace, perfect for a probing attack.
"Pelipper, use Steel Wing!"
Winona issued a counter-command.
Swoosh!!
One of Pelipper's wings was instantly coated in a silver light. It lowered its altitude and then plunged its wing deep into the ground!
This was the same tactic her Gyarados had used in the previous match.
One had to remember that the previous Gyarados was seven or eight meters long.
This meant that even though Gyarados had used its tail as a lightning rod, its long body still absorbed a portion of the electric current.
But Pelipper's physique was well-proportioned. The moment the electric current entered its body, it was instantly channeled into the ground with a swoosh.
The damage it received from the electric current was negligible.
"Pelipper, use Tailwind!"
Winona seized the opening in the attack to give her command.
Pelipper's other, free wing fanned forward, stirring up a strange air current.
This instantly doubled Pelipper's speed.
Winona had already seen that Regieleki's offense was fierce and its speed was astonishingly fast. If she didn't use Tailwind to increase Pelipper's speed first, she would have no room to fight back at all.
"Regieleki, use Thunderbolt!"
Ash simply commanded, increasing the force of his attack.
Commanding Regieleki was exceptionally simple and brutal—just mindlessly spam Electric-type moves.
However, this time, Pelipper didn't choose to take the hit with its lightning rod tactic. Instead, it flapped its wings, and with the enhancement from Tailwind, it just barely managed to dodge the lightning attack.
"Now! Use Hydro Pump!"
Winona cried out.
Whoosh!!
Pelipper's wide beak opened, and a thick, high-pressure stream of water gushed out.
Thump!
However, Regieleki's movements were just as fast. Bouncing back and forth, it also evaded the column of water.
"Use Thunderbolt!"
"Use Hydro Pump!"
In the next moment, both of their high-power moves erupted simultaneously. The energy of the water stream and lightning clashed and deadlocked in the center of the battle arena.
In terms of power, Regieleki's electric strike was a cut above, but it didn't manage to overwhelmingly pierce through the water stream. In the end, steam and electric current exploded and scattered in mid-air.
The strong gust blew both trainers back several meters.
"..."
Winona's expression changed once again.
This Regieleki was absurd to the extreme. Not only was its power this exaggerated, but even with Tailwind, her Pelipper could only barely keep up with its speed?
Why don't you just play this battle all by yourself?!
"However…"
But Winona's gaze sharpened. In this world, there was no such thing as a perfect Pokémon.
An extreme Pokémon with infinitely high Attack and Speed must naturally have extremely low Defense!
"As long as I can hit that thing once, the outcome will be decided!"
Having made up her mind, Winona took the initiative to attack.
"Use Icy Wind!"
Pelipper opened its great beak, and a bluish-white ice mist spread across the sky.
"Trying for a speed reduction first? Then I'll lower yours first... Regieleki, use Electroweb!"
Regieleki flung its arms out, and a massive net of electric current spread out. It not only bundled up all the incoming ice mist but even continued to sweep toward the target behind it.
"Dodge it, then use Mist!"
Winona's mind was highly focused as she immediately countered.
Pelipper flapped its wings to dodge, opened its mouth, and a large cloud of white mist spread out, enveloping Regieleki.
"Use Rapid Spin!"
However, Ash's response was equally swift. The whirlwind kicked up by Regieleki's high-speed rotation instantly blew away the thick, white mist.
Thump!
Not only that, Regieleki moved at high speed, having already appeared on the ground directly beneath Pelipper.
Its two raised, electrified arms were aimed squarely at the large bird above.
"Then I'll let you witness Regieleki's exclusive move... Use Thunder Cage!!"
Ash's eyes narrowed as he roared.
Bzzzt!!
Crackling electric currents burst from Regieleki's body, spreading into the sky from its electronic arms.
The electric current gradually solidified in the air, vaguely taking the shape of a cage.
BZZZZT-BOOM!!
And this lightning cage was still continuously spreading dense currents of electricity in all directions. The density was far greater than the move Discharge, making it impossible to dodge.
Although this was the first time she had seen such a peculiar move, Winona's eyes became incredibly bright at this moment.
A great opportunity!
"Now, Pelipper, use Soak!"
She suddenly called out the name of a new move.
Pelipper opened its beak wide and suddenly spat a large water ball directly downward.
Pop... patter patter patter!
The large water ball burst in the air, turning into countless water droplets that rained down, passing through the dense gaps in the electric current, and finally landing on the Regieleki below.
Once touched by these water droplets, they couldn't be shaken off or evaporated. They clung tenaciously, completely soaking Regieleki's entire body.
"What the hell?!"
This was the first time Ash had encountered this move, and his expression was one of shock.
"Dee dee, Soak: Drenches the target with a special stream of water, changing its type to pure Water."
The Pokedex automatically provided the information.
At this moment, Regieleki had been turned into a pure Water-type. Not only that, but its entire body was now dripping wet…
This made it impossible for it to control the Thunder Cage above it any longer.
"B-b-bzzzt...?!"
Regieleki let out a sound of utter bewilderment.
The next moment, the scattering bursts of electric current had only to touch a single droplet of water on its body before they instantly surged across it.
BZZZZT-BOOM!!
The violent electric current instantly exploded upon Regieleki's body!!
Super Effective!!
"Regieleki?!"
Ash was stunned. He cried out subconsciously, never expecting such a move existed.
"Heh..."
On the other side, Winona was about to laugh, but her expression quickly froze.
She saw that a portion of the violent Thunder Cage had struck the Regieleki below—but the power of this move was somewhat beyond her imagination.
BZZZZT-BOOM!!
The other portion of the dense electric current slammed into the Pelipper above.
It was a devastatingly Super Effective hit!!
BOOM!!
BOOM!!
In an instant, the lightning completely erupted. Two violent, thunderous explosions rose up simultaneously, one in mid-air and one on the ground!
