Togekiss, the Jet Pokemon, is said to visit peaceful places without dispute and bring various blessings there.
This is the final evolution form of Togepi. Compared to Togepi, Togekiss is much larger, yet still retains its adorable appearance. Beneath that cute exterior lies an extremely terrifying and powerful force.
The Togepi in Misty's arms was stunned when it saw Togetic, and then it excitedly started shouting something, waving its two little hands.
She didn't know Togekiss is its own evolution form, but she felt a special sense of closeness with the other, and Togekiss was also attracted by Togepi's actions. Togekiss glanced at Togepi and smiled, nodding at it, which made Togepi even more excited...
"Speaking of which, Ash, you also have a Togepi. Don't be fooled by this little one's cute appearance. After evolving, it's very powerful," Cynthia noticed the excited Togepi in Misty's arms and smiled as she spoke.
No one knows the power of Togekiss better than she does, because she is the owner of the world's strongest Togekiss.
If Togepi wants to evolve into Togekiss, it first needs to evolve into Togetic and then use a Shiny Stone to evolve into Togekiss.
Wild Togepi are extremely rare, almost nonexistent. Even in its discovery site, Johto, they are very rare, comparable to Legendary Beasts, and a Pokemon hard to come by.
Therefore, Togepi's rarity makes its evolved form and final evolution form few and far between. It's needless to say how much effort and dedication Cynthia put into raising Togepi to its current level; even just the cost of a Shiny Stone is enough to daunt an average person.
She has every reason to call herself the owner of the strongest Togekiss.
She also sensed boundless potential in Ash's Togepi. If Ash can nurture it, the future power of Ash's Togepi might not be weaker than, or even stronger than her Togekiss.
"Hehe, whatever the future holds, all I want now is for this little guy to be carefree. As for future matters, let's talk about them later." Hearing Cynthia's praise of his Togepi, Ash proudly wiped his nose.
Speaking of which, Togepi has been with him for quite a while. Since picking it up in the Valley of the Giants and hatching it, over three months have passed. All the Pokemon he possesses have either evolved or reached their final evolution, with power reaching the Elite level.
Except for Togepi, which is an exception. Now the little guy's level is stuck at Advanced Peak, and theoretically, it should be able to evolve even at the Advanced Level, yet there's no sign of it evolving.
Ash doesn't care about improving Togepi's strength; its role in the team is to be cute and bring good luck. As for strength... other Pokemon are more than enough.
Ash has never trained Togepi seriously. Otherwise, even if it hadn't evolved, Togepi wouldn't be only at Advanced Peak. All Ash asks of it is to grow up healthily and happily, nothing more.
Today, Cynthia unexpectedly chose to battle using Togepi's final evolution against him. He knows little about Cynthia, only that she has a seemingly invincible Garchomp, a formidable presence that even Leon's Charizard finds troublesome.
In this match, he first chose Pikachu to battle. Cynthia not only didn't use Ground Type Garchomp to counter him, but instead used the Flying Type Pokemon, which is already at a disadvantage. Is this the champion's generosity?
But even the Flying Type Pokemon is a champion's Pokemon and very difficult to handle!
'Be careful, Pikachu. This Togekiss is Champion Advanced Level; it's not easy to deal with. Go all out right away,' Ash's voice echoed in Pikachu's mind, instantly making Pikachu question his capability.
Not buddy, what level am I now? Gym Peak!
You're asking a Gym Peak to fight a Champion Advanced Level, which is almost skipping two major levels. Do you think this is reasonable!!
Despite questioning himself, Pikachu never backs down from a challenge. No matter the opponent, even a Champion Advanced Level, how bad can it be? Teacher Dapi has fought cross-level battles many times; what's one more!
"Catch it, Pikachu!" Ash took off his hat and tossed it into the field. Pikachu leaped into the air, landing the hat firmly on his head, instantly making his aura different.
This move made Cynthia squint slightly: "A Pikachu wearing the hat, I always felt it wasn't a mere decoration. Now it seems true, is that hat a magical item? Upon wearing it, Pikachu seems to become a different Pokemon."
Though Cynthia doesn't have Ash's Eye of Insight, her rich champion experience gave her a very accurate sense. After donning the hat, she felt Pikachu's level, ability value, and even species value increase, making it almost unrecognizable from before the hat.
This isn't a mere decoration but something comparable to a Divine Artifact!
