Pokémon: Dreams Come True Starting in Sinnoh

Chapter 115 Comprehension? From now on, please summon your courage and confidence.

It's not that they're timid, but rather that they can't adapt to Pokémon battles and are definitely not good at head-on combat. However, they do have strength, which needs to be brought out by their trainers.

In just one exchange, Cynthia had already seen through the true nature of this Night Patrol Spirit.

When she first made eye contact with Ash, it was clear that Ash wanted her to help train Nocturne, and it needed to be a fairly intense training session. Perhaps Ash wanted Nocturne to gain something from battles, but at first, Cynthia didn't know exactly what Ash wanted to gain.

But now, she seems to understand.

In Pokémon battles, Pokémon that can only rely on their trainers' commands will not go far, and those that can only engage in head-on confrontations, counterattacks, or sneak attacks are also very limited.

Nightwatch is not a clumsy, slow-moving Pokémon. After evolving, it has the ability to both attack from a distance and fight in close combat. However, if it can only imitate its current fighting style at that time, then its advantages as a Ghost-type Pokémon will be lost, and all it will have left is its relatively fast running speed.

This is what Xiaozhi really wants his help with.

"That's really good." After figuring it out, Cynthia didn't hold back her praise for Ash. "No wonder Gossop values ​​you so much... In that case... use Nightshade!"

“Mi~GA~!”

Black, six-pointed star-shaped shadows bloomed from beneath the Ghost Bonsai and spread outwards. The Night Patrol, hiding underground, realized that it could no longer hide, but Ash's command had not yet arrived.

“DU...”

The Night Patrol Spirit closed its eyes tightly, then, as if it had made a momentous decision, quickly floated into the air.

The Shadow of the Night detected the movement of the Night Patrol Spirit, and so, shadowy figures emerged from the ground like sharp blades, surging into the air.

"Strange light".

"DU!"

Relieved to receive Ash's command, Night Patrol, suspended in mid-air, emitted a dazzling light with the aid of sunlight.

The sunlight combined with the strange light made the lighting at the scene suddenly become eerie, flickering between bright and dark, black and white.

Although the Ghost Bonsai, the direct target of the strange light, closed its eyes the moment the light flashed, preventing itself from becoming confused, the Night Demon Shadow, which was originally tracking the Night Patrol Spirit, lost its target because of the Ghost Bonsai's closed eyes and could only fall and pierce the ground.

"They actually withstood two rounds of attacks from Miss Cynthia just thanks to the Night Patrol Spirit..."

"Such strong leadership skills... By the way, what's his name? Has he participated in the league tournament? There must be a record of that, right?"

The audience, who originally just wanted to have some fun, were all impressed by Ash's command skills. Most of the people who came here understood Pokémon battles, and they could all see that this Night Patrol was completely unskilled in combat.

But can such a weak Night Patrol Spirit really last two rounds against the champion?

......

The discussions at the scene did not affect the group engaged in battle at all. Seeing that her command had been thwarted once again, Cynthia was not anxious. Instead, she felt that Ash had great potential and wanted to see how many surprises he could bring her.

"The wave of evil".

"Shadow attack!"

What followed was a different kind of fast-paced battle than the initial one, with both sides issuing commands at a faster pace.

The ghost bonsai shook its head, releasing waves of evil energy as it tried to catch the night patrol spirit in mid-air.

Night Patrol reacted the instant Ash's voice fell. Faster than the trajectory of Dark Pulse, a shadow passed by Night Patrol appeared behind Ghost Bonsai. Just as Dark Pulse was about to hit, Night Patrol moved to the location of the shadow and successfully avoided the attack.

"Dive down."

"Will-o'-the-wisps are everywhere!"

Although the Night Patrol Spirit's shadow successfully swapped positions, it failed to attack the Ghost Bonsai. Just as it moved to a new location, the Ghost Bonsai disappeared from its original spot, turning into a shadow that drifted across the field.

Upon hearing Xiao Zhi's command, Night Patrol Spirit, without suspicion, immediately ignited dozens of will-o'-the-wisps, covering every corner of the battlefield. All the will-o'-the-wisps would swarm in the moment the Ghost Bonsai appeared.

but--

"Strong mental focus."

Silver Cyclone lacks the ability to control large areas. Although Ash knew this, which is why he had Night Patrol spread Will-o'-the-Wisp across the field, being able to defend against Silver Cyclone does not mean he can defend against Psychic.

Although it wasn't a Psychic-type Pokémon, it was still a key member of the champion team. A pink light flashed across the Ghost Bonsai, which had turned into a shadow, and for a moment the will-o'-the-wisps on the entire field began to shake before disappearing completely.

"DU?!"

Night Patrol hadn't expected its confident attack to be so easily countered. It looked at Ash with pleading eyes, but Ash just stared back at it without giving any further commands.

"The wave of evil".

Ash had no more commands, but Cynthia had already given them. Faced with another sweeping Dark Pulse attack descending from below, Nightwatch paused for a second before attempting to use Spectral Light to help it dodge, just as it had done earlier. But—

"boom--!"

The wave of evil swept over Nightwatch without reservation, and it didn't understand until the moment Nightwatch fell from the sky.

yes......

It already knows its location, and the evil wave it used was sweeping across, so it doesn't matter if it temporarily loses its sight.

Unfortunately, it realized it a little too late. If it had chosen to use a shadow attack and move within a small area, it might have been able to dodge.

The Night Patrol Spirit's consciousness gradually faded, and then it felt as if it had been picked up, and heard these words in its ears—

"Remember today's battle. In Pokémon battles, you can't go far by just relying on the trainer's commands. You must have your own insights. However, you've done a remarkable job today against the champion's main Pokémon. Don't forget how you felt today. The opponents you encounter in the future are unlikely to be stronger than this 'Ghost Bonsai.' Show some courage."

Night Watchman closed his eyes, engraving those words deeply into his heart and mind, before falling into a deep sleep.
