"Oh!!!"
"Hirona's Garchomp is making an entrance!!!"
"As expected, Du's signature Pokemon, Dragonite, is being sent out!!!"
While Fang Yuan and Eevee were chatting.
The battle had already begun below.
The referee's impassioned voice echoed even more throughout the stadium.
...
...
Hirona VS Du!
Garchomp VS Dragonite!
The battle of quasi-gods!
"Garchomp, Mega Evolution."
Hirona too was not polite, straightforwardly pulling out the evolutionary stone from her chest, a breeze kicked up her dazzling blonde hair, her expression was one of confidence and calm under the light of the Key Stone.
"It's a Mega Evolution! The referee's player Hirona has helped Garchomp complete its Mega Evolution from the start! It seems that the pressure Du has put on her is immense!!!"
The referee was much more active in the afternoon than in the morning; this was right, this was the correct way to open a Mega Evolution, the referee thought.
In the morning, Mewtwo's Mega Evolution had left him at a loss for words—not using a Key Stone was one thing, but changing into two different Super Evolution Forms consecutively? That really messed with his mentality.
At the same time, on the field.
"Ka-ow!!!!"
After the Mega Evolution, Garchomp's arms and wings fused, turning into scythe-like appendages with red edges.
It is said that the arms of a Mega Garchomp, which are like scythes, could easily reduce the earth to dust, and there's even a scholarly debate on whether Mega Tyranitar or Mega Garchomp could destroy a terrain more quickly.
Boom!!
An intent to kill bursts out from Garchomp.
"Howl!!!"
On the opposite side, facing this aura, Du's Dragonite rapidly spread its wings, with arms extended and pupils gradually turning red, releasing a heart-shaking roar, unwilling to be outdone!
In that moment, as their auras collided, the space around them seemed to compress, and the violent airflow spread outward, causing whirlwinds to rise.
While Garchomp had completed its Mega Evolution, Dragonite was enveloped in an intertwining energy of white and blue, with only its pupils being blood red, with red light flowing out.
"What is this...?!!!"
Upon seeing Dragonite's transformation, the referee immediately shouted, "Du's Dragonite is not to be outdone either—directly entering the Neck Scale State!!"
"It looks like both sides are going for a battle to the death from the start!!"
"Wait, Du's Dragonite seems to be carrying some kind of item—Dragon Scales—it's wearing a blue Dragon Scale around its neck! The energy covering its entire body seems to be emitted from the scale!"
Dragon Scales aren't necessarily power-enhancing items, but if they contain powerful energy, they can also be used as such.
At the moment, seeing Du's Dragonite with a scale, countless people started discussing.
"The Dragon Trainer Lineage, Dragon Scales... could it be...?"
At that moment, Chairman Damaranche and President Loz, as well as Adick, Master, and others, were still on the main stand as they had been in the morning, watching the new round of battles.
Seeing the change below, Chairman Damaranche laughed, "That's right, it must be the Outrage of the Poseidon from Whirlpool Island."
Although Lugia is known as the Giant Bird that lives at the bottom of the sea, in the legends it is also referred to by the ancestors of the Dragon Trainer Lineage as the Dragon God of the Ryugu Palace under the sea!!
Within the sacred Dragon lands of the Dragon Trainer Lineage to which Du belongs, a Dragon Scale from Lugia is preserved, an artifact more rare than the Silver Feather.
Lugia has many Silver Feathers, but only one Outrage, and it cannot regenerate.
"The ancestors of the Dragon Trainer Lineage are said to have once commanded the Dragon Legion to conquer and pacify the rampaging Lugia of Whirlpool Island. This is the Dragon Trainer Lineage's proudest achievement. That Dragon Scale must have been obtained during that time. Until now, no Dragon Trainer has been able to touch that Dragon Scale because it could cause confusion in Dragonite, but Du did it—not only was he unaffected by the Scale's power, he even restrained its force, turning it into a battle item for their use."
Chairman Damaranche slowly added, immediately sending Du's popularity soaring!
In this battle, Du did not plan to rely on Z-Moves or Gigantamax, but instead decided to go for a decisive battle with the attribute-amplifying item.
This kind of holistic enhancement brought by the legendary item could display their true strength better than the Z-Moves and Gigantamax he was not skilled with.
"Garchomp, use Sharp Stone Attack!"
"Dragonite, Dragon Dance—"
On the field, the battle had erupted.
Garchomp unfolded its scythes, generating silver Sharp Stones around it, and with a "boom," a dozen of the stones, like a meteor shower, shot against the flow, turning into shining flashes of silver, sweeping up howling winds, and breaking the sound barrier as they rushed towards Dragonite.
"Howl!!!"
Dragonite took to the sky with an angry roar, as it spun, its whole body energy flowed, forming the mythical silhouette of a wildly dancing figure—the massive phantom image of Lugia appeared with the sway of Dragon Dance, the energy phantom seemed like a furious god set to destroy everything, and faced with the incoming Sharp Stone Attack, the wild Dragon Dance whipped up sharp cyclones, reducing the Sharp Stones to dust!!!
"My god, unbelievable, Du's Dragonite, while performing Dragon Dance, has actually formed the phantom image of Lugia!!!!"
"The terrifying cyclone driven by Dragon Dance has even destroyed the Sharp Stone Attack!!!"
The commentator shouted hoarsely.
"And you say you're not a Flying-type Champion???!!" Fang Yuan also followed suit from the player's stand.
