Pokémon: Dreams Come True Starting in Sinnoh

Chapter 444, Match 3: Scorpion King vs. Electabuzz

"Salamander, dodge it, then charge in and use Dragon Claw!"

Ash's voice was clear and firm; he believed that Salamence's speed was sufficient to handle the situation.

Salamence flapped its wings, its massive body instantly soaring into the air, narrowly avoiding the electric arcs attacking from both sides. Then, its claws glowed with a ghostly blue light, like two sharp scythes, and with a sharp whooshing sound, it swooped down towards Jolteon.

"Then let's give it a try!"

As he watched the figure getting closer and closer to Reibu, a glint of madness flashed in Denji's eyes, and he decided to take a desperate gamble.

"Rayle, thunder!"

At Dianci's command, Jolteon's fur stood on end again, and even more intense golden lightning gathered around it, like a small lightning storm.

"One more Crazy Volt!"

Immediately afterwards, Denji's voice rang out again, indicating that he wanted to maximize Jolteon's attack power.

This attack was far more powerful than the previous one.

This should be the strongest attack that Jolteon can use.

Caught up in the atmosphere, sweat streamed down Xiaozhi's face and dripped onto the ground.

His eyes were fixed on Reyborg on the field, capturing its every subtle movement.

That was Reibou's strongest attack, and Denji's last trump card.

This one strike will determine the victor.

At this moment, Rayquaza's fur was no longer just standing on end, but rather like burning golden flames, each hair containing destructive power.

It growled, its voice hoarse and deep, like a wild beast driven to the brink of despair.

The air around Jolteon was distorted by the intense electrical energy. The golden lightning was so dense that it was almost tangible, like a battle suit woven from lightning, rushing towards Salamence with an aura of destruction.

The violent energy fluctuations even made Xiao Guang and Xiao Gang in the audience feel a pang of fear, and they subconsciously held their breath.

"Let's give it a try!" Ash's eyes blazed with fighting spirit; he showed no sign of backing down. "Salamander, use Fire Fang!"

Just as the two were about to collide, Ash suddenly changed his attack method.

Salamence suddenly opened its blood-red maw, and flames roared from its two sharp fangs, like two burning blades, as it viciously bit at Jolteon.

"boom--!"

Flame Fang and Mad Volt collided violently, unleashing a deafening roar. Dazzling flames and blinding lightning intertwined, causing the entire battlefield to tremble.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and space seemed to distort.

However, this stalemate did not last long. Soon after, Salamence's Fire Fang directly shattered Jolteon's enhanced Mad Volt. After shattering Mad Volt, Salamence's Fire Fang still had momentum and bit down hard on Jolteon.

"Ee—!"

Jolteon let out a shrill scream as its body was firmly gripped by Flame Fang, rendering it unable to move.

Immediately afterwards, Salamence swung its head sharply, slamming Jolteon hard onto the ground.

"boom--!"

A deep crater was smashed into the ground, and Rayquaza lay at the bottom of the crater, its body charred black and emitting wisps of black smoke, having lost its ability to fight.

"Joeb?!" Denji exclaimed in surprise, rushing forward to check on Joeb's condition.

After clearly seeing the extent of Reibu's injuries, Denji took a deep breath, stood up, and announced:

"Joebu is unable to battle, Salamence wins!"

"Well done, Salamence!"

"Pikachu~!"

Ash and Pikachu both expressed their praise for Salamence's first battle after evolving.

Salamence, meanwhile, roared to the sky, its voice filled with pride and elation, seemingly also deeply absorbed in this exhilarating battle. It flapped its enormous wings, circled once in the air, and then slowly landed beside Ash, affectionately nuzzling his cheek, as if seeking his praise.

After all, it was especially fond of sticking to Ash when it was a Bagon, and it seems that its clinginess hasn't diminished even after evolving into a Salamence.

On the other side of the field, watching this scene, Denji finally couldn't help but start scratching his messy hair.

Now, I'm going to be mocked by that guy Da Ye for a long time.

Denji recalled his Raibou and looked at the Poké Ball in his hand, thinking to himself.

It seems that the final desperate fight with Salamence was too risky. The opponent had been enhanced by Dragon Dance several times, and a head-on confrontation was simply too reckless.

but.

Dianci chuckled softly.

This is more like his usual style.

Denji took a deep breath to calm himself down, then looked up at Satoshi with a confident smile back on his face.

"A beautiful battle. To have such strength so soon after evolution, your Salamence will surely shine in the League Tournament." Denji expressed his admiration for Salamence. "However, the battle is not over yet."

"Go, Electivire!"

A flash of white light appeared, and a gigantic electric monster covered in black and yellow stripes appeared on the field. Its arms were thick and powerful, with black cable-like stripes around its wrists, and its eyes flashed with terrifying electricity. It exuded a powerful aura.

"Roar—!!" The Electrified Beast roared to the sky, its voice as deafening as thunder, and the entire battlefield seemed to tremble at its roar.

"I wonder which Pokémon Ash will send out to deal with this. I'm really looking forward to it."

Da Ye watched Xiao Zhi with great interest, anticipating his choice.

Denji and Ash were no longer the only ones who were excited about this battle.

Outside the arena, Da Ye is already itching to fight, wondering if he should challenge Xiao Zhi to another match later.

......

On the field.

"Salamander, come back. You've had a tough time." Ash didn't let Salamander continue battling.

"Roar..." The Salamence let out a low growl, seemingly unwilling to continue the fight. It tilted its head, its eyes revealing a wronged expression.

"I know you really want to keep battling, Salamence." Ash gently patted Salamence's head and comforted it softly, "But let's give the other companions a chance too. When we get back, I promise I'll let you have a good fight during our special training."

Hearing Ash's promise, Salamence reluctantly nodded and obediently returned to its Poké Ball.

So--

Ash looked towards the Electivire poised to strike on the other side of the field.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Ash slowly took out the third Poké Ball and threw it forcefully into the air.

"I choose you, Scorpio King!"

A flash of white light, and Scorpion King appeared on the field.

“Gli~!”

Reappearing on the battlefield after a long absence, the Scorpion King excitedly waved its pincers and let out a clear cry. It flicked its tongue, supported its body with its tail, and leaped around on the ground, looking eager to fight.

It even started tapping its pincers together, making a dull thud, as if taunting the Electrified Beast.

...Finally, I'm about to reach one million words! PS: Thanks to the chaotic Zhiguang and Xiaoxiao who loves crystal cakes for the inspiration capsules!
