Pokemon: This Ash Is Too Versatile-Chapter 694 - 372: Crushing Victory, Still a Negative Attribute Master!
The Earth Power and Blaze Kick collided, and the two forces erupted in mid-air, with a visible shockwave spreading outward. The powerful gust blew in all directions, and the surrounding audience instinctively wanted to retreat, but the area was already packed tightly. The spectators in the front wanted to step back, but those behind had no idea what was happening and didn’t move an inch.
As a result, the spectators in the front were unable to move even a step and could only raise their arms, bracing themselves to withstand the oncoming shockwave.
However, when the shockwave reached the edge of the arena, it suddenly disappeared without any warning. Although saying it disappeared without warning is not entirely accurate, it seemed to have encountered some unknown object at the arena’s edge that caused the energy to dissipate.
In the end, the shockwave did not spread to the edge of the arena, and the spectators around the area were unharmed.
At the competitor’s spot, May was also prepared to withstand the incoming shockwave. In Gym Level and even higher battles, May had some mental preparation.
As a Trainer, she had endured countless aftershocks created by Pokemon collisions; otherwise, how else would she have developed such an agile physique?
Fun fact, if a Trainer were slightly weaker, let alone commanding powerful Pokemon, they might even be knocked out just watching from the sidelines. That’s why there’s the saying that strong Pokemon need equally strong Trainers.
It’s not that Trainers can reach the same level of strength as Pokemon, but at the very least, they have to withstand the aftershocks of their own Pokemon’s battles. Not every place has protective equipment, especially in the wild.
May had suffered many hardships due to the aftershocks of Pokemon battles, but today she unexpectedly found that the clash of Pokemon on the field didn’t affect those off the field. What’s going on?
At this moment, the Blaziken in the field flipped three times in mid-air and landed lightly in front of May. It seemed like Blaziken had successfully used Blaze Kick to neutralize Earth Power, but upon landing, it immediately knelt on one knee.
"It still couldn’t neutralize Earth Power? But that’s not the point... The point is, how can Venusaur use Earth Power after using Frenzy Plant? Ash, didn’t your Venusaur experience any skill lag?" May couldn’t hold back her confusion until the end of the battle because it was just too perplexing.
Even if skill lag can be reduced through training, saying there’s no lag at all is something even Champion-level Pokemon can’t achieve. No matter how much it’s reduced, some lag always exists.
Yet this Venusaur showed no sign of lag, leading to May’s misjudgment.
"My Venusaur is quite special. Skills like Frenzy Plant don’t affect it, and when it first used Giga Drain alongside Frenzy Plant, you should have guessed it. You need to observe more carefully, May," Ash advised with an air of experience.
Hearing this, May did not refute but recalled the previous details. She had overlooked something because the power of Frenzy Plant far exceeded her expectations; even normal flames couldn’t shake it, only Flare Blitz could barely break free.
Even though Venusaur is Elite Level, it shouldn’t be able to use Grass-Type moves to suppress a Fire-Type Blaziken that much. That’s what puzzled May.
Too many questions had clouded her mind, causing her not to notice Venusaur using other skills while activating Frenzy Plant.
If she had noticed, she certainly wouldn’t have launched such a reckless attack. Ultimately, it was the initial surprise that caused her brain to freeze for a moment.
"Let’s make the next move the decisive one. Venusaur, Frenzy Plant." Watching the panting Blaziken, Ash decided not to drag it out and instructed Venusaur to use the Grass-Type ultimate move, Frenzy Plant, for the final attack.
May looked serious as Blaziken’s physical strength was already quite depleted. Using Flare Blitz also had side effects, plus the wear and tear from Earth Power. If hit by this move, it could indeed be the end.
"Let’s go for broke, Blaziken. Use Flare Blitz and aim for the core!"
Even Flare Blitz might not be able to break through so much Frenzy Plant head-on, but there’s no rule that one must confront Frenzy Plant directly. As long as Blaziken bypasses Frenzy Plant and attacks Venusaur directly, victory can be achieved!
Blaziken’s greatest strength is its agility, and if it goes all out, it might just dodge all the Frenzy Plant. Once it gets close to Venusaur, there’s a chance to defeat it!
Venusaur unleashed Frenzy Plant, and countless green plants rose from the ground once more. Blaziken ignited with scorching flames all over its body, shooting out like a bullet. Amidst the massive greenery, it weaved through the gaps between the plants.
Some of the slightly smaller plants were directly burnt away by Flare Blitz.
While Venusaur’s Frenzy Plant’s toughness far exceeded ordinary Grass-Type skills, that applies mainly to its robust roots and stems. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
If it’s just some smaller plants, Blaziken can break through them with Flare Blitz. In less than two seconds, Blaziken had already made its way through several layers of obstacles from the edge of the arena to stand before Venusaur!
