Chapter 1191: Ash vs. Local Ash! (Part 2)
2024-05-15 Author: Samsung Charmander (Author Name)
Within minutes, he had already lost two of his heavy hitters. Local Ash's face had completely darkened.
The opponent before him was far more terrifying than he had imagined!
"What's wrong? Still want to battle?"
On the other side, Ash simply spoke in a flat tone, subconsciously mimicking Brother Red's demeanor and aura.
Powerhouses all have an aura about them.
Although the current Ash was still a long way from Red, having already reached a level comparable to the Elite Four, he had begun to develop an expert's aura of his own.
This subconsciously caused the noisy chatter from the crowd to die down.
"Boing~ Boing~"
This, in turn, made the crisp, springy sound of Regieleki bouncing back and forth seem all the more comical.
"Hmph, the battle has just begun!"
The vast difference in strength, however, only served to completely ignite Local Ash's battle intensity.
I have to take down this Regieleki at least! "I choose you, Grovyle!!"
Raising his hand, he threw a Poké Ball, this time releasing his Grovyle. This Pokémon had turned the tide for Local Ash in critical moments many times before.
"It hasn't evolved yet?"
Another familiar face, which made Ash pause for a moment.
He wondered how many badges the other one had now.
However, after this Grovyle appeared, it subconsciously picked up a twig and put on a cool expression.
You could say all Grovyles in the universe share a single brain.
"Grovyle, use Bullet Seed!!"
"Regieleki, use Shock Wave!!"
The battle began, with both trainers ordering ranged moves simultaneously.
However, the dense energy bullets had no effect against the Shock Wave and were easily shattered and dispersed.
Bzzzt-BOOM!!
Its momentum unchecked, the Shock Wave continued toward its target.
"Dodge it quickly!!"
Grovyle was no slow-moving Torkoal. It took a large stride and leaped high into the air, narrowly avoiding the Shock Wave.
Bzzzt-WHOOSH!!
However, the Shock Wave that had just grazed past it seemed to have locked on to its target. Its trajectory bent, and it shot back again!
Shock Wave is a move with a guaranteed-hit effect.
Grovyle didn't dare to take the hit and could only continue to dodge hastily.
Tap-tap-tap...!
Eventually, Grovyle even seemed to defy gravity, running along the surrounding walls like a gecko. Its flashy movements immediately drew cheers from the crowd.
Even the powerful Shock Wave trailing behind it gradually lost its energy and dissipated after being led on several big laps.
Watching his opponent act as if he'd won a major victory, Ash shook his head.
Regieleki's speed was a notch above even his own fully-evolved Sceptile.
Thinking of this, Ash decided not to go easy anymore and said:
"Use Electroweb and catch it!"
The moment he spoke, Regieleki's figure vanished from its spot.
At the same instant, the yellow-and-green bouncing pillar appeared directly in front of Grovyle. Its ghost-like speed was so frightening that the Grovyle could only freeze in place.
Bzzzt-bzzzt-bzzzt!!
Raising its arms of electric current, a dense current formed into a large electric net, spreading out to cover it.
Grovyle had no time to dodge and was completely enveloped, with no way to escape.
The raw, stinging pain where the Electroweb made contact with its body caused it to groan repeatedly.
Bzzzt-BOOM!!
Another beam of lightning blasted Grovyle, sending it flying along with the large electric net, before it crashed heavily onto the ground.
The combination of Electroweb and Shock Wave left Grovyle in a critical state, on the verge of collapsing.
"Grovyle, don't lose to it!!"
However, another one of those familiar, rejuvenating shouts sustained Grovyle's last bit of HP.
"Chyaba...!"
As its body gradually rose, the battle intent in its eyes surged ever higher.
In the next instant, Grovyle's body erupted in a cluster of emerald-green energy!
Ability activated: Overgrow!
"This ability again?!"
Bathed in the green light, Local Ash's own battle intent was fully ignited, his expression becoming fervent.
The last time he saw this ability was during his battle against Norman at the Petalburg Gym...
Tap-tap-tap...!
In its Overgrow state, Grovyle's form blurred into a series of green light afterimages as it sped forward, proactively launching an attack.
In this extreme state, not only did its Grass-type power increase, but its own speed also seemed to have improved significantly.
Grovyle had learned a new move—Agility!
For a moment, even Regieleki could only hop in place, looking left and right.
"Beep-beep...!"
It emitted an incomprehensible telegraph-like frequency from its head, seeming completely dizzied by its opponent and hesitant to attack first.
"Now! Use your strongest Leaf Blade!!"
A sharp glint flashed in Local Ash's eyes as he suddenly roared.
In its Overgrow state, Grovyle's Leaf Blades grew into large, green cleavers, their strength unimaginably immense!
Then, at extreme speed, it slashed at Regieleki's body!
Swish!
The green blade's shadow flashed past!
Having completed its attack, Grovyle knelt on one knee, sheathing its Leaf Blade and picking up its twig once more, presenting only its cool back to the audience.
"Chyaba?!"
The next moment, however, Grovyle's expression changed.
Belatedly, it realized that its Leaf Blade hadn't struck anything solid.
Turning its head, it saw that it had sliced Regieleki's body in two at the waist.
It was an afterimage!
The real Regieleki was already hovering above Grovyle's head.
Its raised, energy-pulsing arms were already covered in powerful electric sparks that gradually spread outward...
Bzzzt-BOOM!!
A Thunderbolt was unleashed in full, exploding upon Grovyle's body!!
The massive explosion caused the entire metal floor of the arena to tremble violently!
The smoke and electric current dissipated.
In the arena, Regieleki was still hopping left and right as if nothing had happened.
Grovyle, on the other hand, lay there, its entire body charred black, incapacitated.
"Damn it, even Grovyle is no match at all?!"
Local Ash clenched his fists, his face full of unwillingness to accept defeat.
It was an absolute, overwhelming victory. The vast battle arena fell silent, everyone too afraid to even breathe.
Just who is this guy named Tobias!?
"Impressive..."
Even Juan, seated in the VIP section, had abruptly stood up.
A drop of sweat had fallen from his elegant face.
The pressure this person exerted on him was not much less than that of his disciple—the League Champion, Wallace.
Then, Juan took a deep breath and sat back down in his seat.
Regardless, tomorrow's exhibition match is going to be interesting...
In the arena, seeing Local Ash recall his Grovyle, Ash also suddenly pressed the button on his insulated Poké Ball and recalled Regieleki.
His opponent only had two Pokémon left. There was no need to be as brutal as a one-on-five sweep.
A two-on-five sweep would be just right.
