Pokemon: This Ash Is Too Versatile-Chapter 654 - 352: The Final Showdown, Pikachu vs. Dragonite, Partner Form Unleashed!
The terrifying energies constantly clashed in the air, with Gengar fiercely holding onto the Shadow Ball, preventing the heavy Ground Type power from advancing further.
But this was ultimately in vain. If it were a typical Gardevoir, even at Elite Level, using a close combat move like this might not necessarily suppress the Shadow Ball, because Gardevoir is just weak in terms of Physical Attack.
But Ash’s Gardevoir is different!
This Gardevoir has Mew’s genes, allowing it to learn many skills that normal Gardevoirs couldn’t, and it excels in physical attacks. When it was still a Ralts, it liked using its fists, playing Thunder Punch with incredible skill!
After maturing into Gardevoir, she gradually stopped using her fists for battle, relying more on psychic powers, but this didn’t mean her skills with punches and kicks had regressed; it’s just not used frequently.
If you’re unreasonable, I happen to know a bit about punches and kicks. .jpg
Speaking of which, the High Horsepower Gardevoir is using now is a move she rarely uses, just knowing it, but she can still unleash over eighty percent of its power. Coupled with her terrifying strength, trying to block it with just a Shadow Ball is somewhat delusional.
The dark Shadow Ball trembled violently under the crushing tawny energy, its surface energy barrier constantly cracking and dissipating, like glass shattered by a rock.
The tawny light on Gardevoir’s fist grew fiercely intense, shattering the Shadow Ball from the middle, scattering the black energy like dispersing smoke dust, swallowed completely by the aftermath of High Horsepower.
At the moment of shattering the Shadow Ball, Gardevoir’s fist didn’t stop, striking directly at Gengar’s chest with overwhelming force!
"Ginga——!!" Gengar emitted a piercing scream, its ghostly purple body like a tattered cloth hammered, instantly losing balance.
The Ground Type energy of High Horsepower surged into Gengar’s body through the fist, causing double restraint damage to the poison-type Gengar. The violent energy continuously disrupted Gengar’s body, worsening its injuries.
"Thump!" A deep thud pierced through the dust, as Gengar was fiercely slammed into the center of the field, the soft earth and sand instantly flying out, forming a half-meter deep pit.
In the pit, one of Gardevoir’s feet stepped on the sand, her fist still on Gengar’s chest. Only at this point did the energy on it slowly dissipate, while Gengar’s limbs had already collapsed powerlessly, its body slanting to the side, seemingly drained of all strength.
Seeing this, Gardevoir then removed her fist from Gengar, her delicate body slowly floating up, finally coming above the pit, looking down at Gengar below, her beautiful eyes carrying a trace of unfulfilled satisfaction.
Is it over already! That’s somewhat... not satisfying enough.
Not far away, Yuji’s mouth twitched, wanting to say something, but couldn’t find the words. The scene was rather beyond his imagination. Even if the Shadow Ball couldn’t completely block High Horsepower, at least it should have deflected most of the force.
Yet Gengar was instantly knocked out by just one High Horsepower!!
Yes, Ground Types restrain Gengar, but High Horsepower isn’t Gardevoir’s main skill, while the Shadow Ball is Gengar’s main skill. Add in Gardevoir’s weak Physical Attack from the species, how much power can High Horsepower actually exert?
Yet who could have thought, the Shadow Ball not only failed to block High Horsepower, it didn’t even weaken much of its power, being smashed directly into the field like a dead dog by Gardevoir, forming a big pit.
All in all, Gengar only suffered two moves from Gardevoir: Thunder Punch and High Horsepower. As for Psychic, that skill was deflected by the Shadow Ball before causing harm, so it didn’t inflict much damage.
The damage was actually caused by Gengar’s own Shadow Ball. In short, Gengar was knocked out by two moves from the opponent.
And those were non-stab physical attacks, what is happening here!!
"Inconceivable! Yuji’s Gengar was actually knocked out by Ash’s Gardevoir! This has never happened before, and Ash’s Gardevoir used two physical attacks, which we all know Gardevoir is very weak in, yet Ash’s Gardevoir seemed different."
"Moreover, audiences might be unaware that Gardevoir can’t learn High Horsepower, but Ash’s Gardevoir not only learned it but also unleashed such terrifying power, it’s truly... bizarre!"
If Ah Ming were not on the host’s podium but below, he would definitely make such a remark.
Ash’s Gardevoir not only learned the impossible High Horsepower, but also inflicted such power, completely departing from the weak attack setting of normal Gardevoir!
The host’s words stirred much discussion among the audience. Leaving aside how abnormal Gardevoir seems, the current reality is that their chief trainer seems cornered!
Yuji’s Gengar is his fifth Pokemon, meaning Yuji has just one Pokemon left while Ash has six intact!
