"Curly Ear! Freeze Ray!"
The moment the sandstorm hit, visibility on the field became very low, and even Xiao Guang, who was standing on the field, couldn't get any useful information from the sandstorm.
Even so, she still saw the colors of the illusionary light, so she subconsciously commanded Curly Ears to fight back.
"Meow!"
The illusion ray and the freezing ray collided, creating explosion after explosion under the sandstorm.
Just as Kojiro was about to assist the Poisonous Butterfly in attacking the Curly Ear, a surprised voice suddenly came from Desert Nyarlathotep's side.
Is that the little devil's double-tailed monster hand?
Kojiro made this guess.
Although their initial target was Dawn's Pokémon, since even Desert Nyx's actions were thwarted...
"Desert Nyarlathotep! Use the needle-shaped projectiles on the two-tailed monster hand!"
"Desert Nai!"
The right arm of Desert Nyarlathotep gleamed, and the next second he charged toward the figure he had sensed.
His right arm came crashing down, but it passed right through the figure and landed on the ground. Desert Naya's movements and expression froze at that moment.
"Desert Naya? What?"
"High-speed star!"
Before Kojiro could even ask what was going on, the Twin-Tailed Hand's attack arrived as expected.
Despite being in a sandstorm, the High Speed Star from the Twintail Pokémon landed precisely on the Desert Nyx. Did it determine its location by the sound of the Desert Nyx slamming into the ground?
Kojiro thought to himself.
But why exactly did Ash...?
The stage was covered in dust, so neither the audience nor the camera lenses could capture any view of the Pokémon inside.
However, they were still aware of the stalemate between the Poisonous White Butterfly and the Curly Ear, and of the Desert Nyarlathotep's setback.
But what puzzled them at that moment was why Desert Nyarlathotep's attack missed. Just as Desert Nyarlathotep noticed the figure of the Twin-Tailed Hand, the audience in the arena also saw the figure of the Twin-Tailed Hand through the screen.
"A beautiful shadow clone! This shadow clone perfectly deceived Desert Nyarlathotep and used Desert Nyarlathotep's preemptive move to locate it! Perfect!"
Melissa revealed Ash's methods through the microphone, while at the same time Jessie and Kojiro's scores were dropping sharply.
"Hey! What's going on?! Didn't we already agree on the attack targets? Forget about that Twintail Pokémon! Come help Butterfree!"
"But—"
Kojiro wanted to defend himself, but Ash and Apokolips didn't give them any time to rest.
A figure broke through the sandstorm and leaped straight into the air.
"Hey! Watch out!"
"?! Poisonous White Butterfly, quick—"
"Double attack!"
Aipom leaped above Dustpane along the path of the illusion beam. Dustpane was still confronting Bumblebee, and it felt anxious as it faced Aipom, which had already reached it.
But it seems it can't dodge it either.
"boom!"
"boom!"
The two-tailed monster swung its two glowing white tails at the Poison Duster, and with two heavy thuds, the Poison Duster fell downwards like a stone thrown carelessly.
And the direction the poisonous white butterfly fell was exactly...
"Curly Ears! Stunning Fist!"
Faced with the Poisonous Butterfly, which had lost its ability to resist, Xiao Guang and Juan Juan Er naturally showed no mercy.
Then, amidst Musashi's incredulous scream, the Poisonous Butterfly collapsed to the ground, losing its ability to fight.
"Poisonous White Butterfly!"
Musashi cried out sadly first, then glared angrily at Kojiro, his face contorted in a grimace, and said:
"What are you standing there for! Go now!"
"The match is over!"
"?!"
Just as Musashi was about to entrust the outcome of the match entirely to Kojiro, their score on the big screen was reset to zero, and Bai An quickly announced the end of the match.
Sweet Musashi Lina stood there with her head tilted to the side, her face ashen, and her body seemed to have turned into a stone statue.
"..."
Seeing this, Kojiro was about to sneak away with Desert Nyarlathotep when the stone statue Musashi turned its head stiffly and smiled, saying:
"We still have a lot to talk about later, so don't run away!" (laughs)
"No!!!"
After Kojiro's screams of agony, the two losers had no choice but to leave the stage, and the rest of the time was devoted to the awards ceremony.
"You are truly remarkable. Your teamwork and synergy are even more impressive than your individual individual abilities! If I hadn't heard that Hikari is still a rookie trainer, I would have thought that you two had been traveling together for many years. The special ribbon medal for the duo at the Affinity Tournament rightfully belongs to you."
Melissa approached Ash and Dawn with two ribbon medals, handing them their prizes. She didn't forget her duty as a referee, praising their performance throughout the day.
.......
"I feel like... this grand contest ended a little too quickly..."
As Melissa turned to face the camera, Hikari couldn't help but whisper this complaint to Ash.
She had thought this year's Fate Tournament would be a tough test, but she felt rather empty inside.
Is it because she didn't encounter any difficulties in the first and second rounds of review?
wrong.
She did encounter a difficult problem, but whenever she faced one, she could always see Ash just by turning her head. It was as if she could never fail as long as she stood next to Ash.
At least Xiaoguang felt that way.
"Such feelings were inevitable sooner or later."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi turned around and smiled, saying:
"As your battle experience increases and you participate in more matches, you'll only feel the urge to participate in more battles and matches! Whether it's a Pokémon Contest or Pokémon battles, as long as you're interested, you'll never get tired of them!"
Xiao Zhi expressed his opinion in this way, based on his own feelings.
Hikari felt that this was ambiguous, as she always felt that Satoshi had only told her half the story.
but......
Dawn looked down at the ribbon medal in her hand, then at the ribbon in Ash's hand.
My side is pink, while Ash's is blue.
In any case, the satisfaction and joy I feel at this moment are genuine.
"So--"
"Ah."
The two exchanged a glance, smiled simultaneously, and then gave each other a high five. Xiao Guang excitedly shouted:
"I've received the Ribbon of Fate Medal!"
At that moment, spotlights shone brightly.
The image of the two high-fiving and Xiaoguang's smile were both preserved without exception.
