May has just caught her third Pokémon, a cute little Skitty, and the group also just happened to each their destination, Fallarbor Town.
—————
At this moment, there are only three days left before the Fallarbor Town Pokémon Contest is held.
This also means that if Ash joins this Pokémon Contest, he has ti quickly win as much as possible with his new Togetic. Which really wasn't possible for him now.
He has slowly accumulated more than 2,000 Exchange Points. He hopes that he can find some Pokémon Trainers nearby, so he can exchange for his next Z-Crystal.
When they arrived at the Pokémon Center, sure enough, there were already many Pokémon Coordinators who came to participate in the competition, including many beautiful girls.
Brock's illness immediately began to show after seeing them.
"Wow, everyone seems to be so strong…" May looked at the Trainers in the Pokémon Center with a timid look. "I don't know what to do."
In particular, both she and Ash noticed a beautiful girl with long red hair on the sofa on one side of the Pokémon Center. She was using Calm Mind with her Medicham. Although she was sitting there motionless, her Medicham was floating in the air relying on Meditate, making her presence very noticeable.
Suddenly, Max's glasses shone with blue light and slowly floated into the air. Not only him, but all the lighter belongings on most people here were also suspended in mid-air.
Ash gave a soft smile, he and his adorable Ralts flashed with a blue light, fixing everything suspended around them in the air instead of moving around too much.
Perhaps feeling the spiritual power of Ash and his Ralts, Medicham suddenly opened his eyes, landed on the ground again, and looked at Ash and the Ralts on his shoulder.
But the little cutie Ralts waved towards it as if to saying hello.
And that Pikachu looked cute, but it had a very intimidating aura coming off of it.
Ash and Ralts controlled everything and returned them to their original place, and Max also quickly put on his glasses to see things again.
The long-haired girl also opened her eyes and said, "Everyone, I'm really sorry about this. My Medicham used Confusion unknowingly. Thais won't happen again, I hope!" She said with a sheepish smile.
After saying that, her Medicham also clasped his hands together and bowed to everyone as an apology for causing this random commotion.
But he also began to stare at Ralts, very intensely. At that moment in his mind, he clearly felt the powerful spiritual power of this Ralts, and it could even control it to a very high degree.
It couldn't hold back and came in front of Ash step by step.
The long-haired girl also came over, "Hello, my name is Grace, and this here is my partner, Medicham; and were you the one who had just stopped us now?"
"Yeah, and I am Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town." Ash also introduced the rag of his group, "Your Medicham is very powerful. If possible, I hope to have a battle against it and you!"
"I'm very happy to accompany you to this battle. I believe this is what my Medicham was also hoping for!" Grace said in agreement.
From what the group could tell, this Grace person was very outgoing and loud to say the least.
Even before Brock finish what he wanted to say, she had interrupted him on 6 separate occasions. This really made Brock depressed, but he was back to his old self in no time.
"Then let's start the practice match for my next Pokémon Contest now. Ash, the two is will only use one Pokémon each!" They don't know how it happened like this, but she also became the referee for their battle, poor Brock lost his his again.
"Medicham, come out!" Arriving at the battle arena in the backyard of the Pokémon Center, Grace threw out her Poké Ball that contained her Medicham.
Ash's Ralts directly used Teleport to go into the field in a grand entrance of pink sparks.
"Medicham, we will attack first! Use a sparking Ice Punch!" Grace's battle style still followed the way she would do in a Pokémon Contest.
Medicham used his Meditate to levitate itself into the air, then his fists were covered with a layer of sparkling ice crystals.
After punching out his fist, it seems to be wearing a cloak of ice crystals in his arm. It looked very shiny under the bright sun of Fallarbor Town.
"Thats a good combo alright." Ash praised her a little, but it caught May's attention.
The skill Grace used in front of her seemed to open a completely new door for May, "Is this really what a combo skill supposed to look like?"
She still remembered that time when Ash had ordered his Ralts to use a combination of many different moves together before. It was a combination of borrowing the opponents attacks and adding a little Disarming Voice and Confusion of her own.
It seemed that May had remembered that moment well.
"Ralts, use Disarming Voice!"
Medicham seemed to be performing a kind is martial art style in the air, and with Ralts saying a lot of very controversial things about it with her since song made Medicham change her movements accordingly.
He was still confused on what it was saying about that Vaporeon and Thyplosion and their allegations.
It slowly fell down, staggering around as if it was drunk.
"Medicham!" The bond between Grace and her Medicham seemed quite strong. Under her call, Medicham quickly came back to his senses and rearranged his fighting stance.
But he did not know that he will never recover from what Ralts said to him, and he will even have nightmares about this.
This is when the battle really begins!
"Medicham, use Ice Punch again!"
It was still that Ice Fist, but this time it wasn't there for just a show, his pair of slender looking arms were wrapped around with a heavier layer of frost, both in terms of its speed and attack power, they are much more stronger than the last one.
Medicham still rushed forward and punched Ralts, but Ralts suddenly disappeared in front of him.
"Use Shadow ball!"
The little guy made a sudden large ball of condensed black energy and hit it hard toward Medicham's back. In just a split moment, she had moved behind Medicham.
Grace gritted her teeth seeing all of these. The way she moved at such a high speed was simply too good. It was moving as if she was a real ghost. Facing this Ralts, she had to find a way to deal with its high movements, if she can't, it would most likely be a lose for her.
"Medicham, use Confusion!" Medicham opened his eyes suddenly after being hit to the ground, with a blue-pink light shining in his eyes, he was able to catch Ralts in one fell swoop.
"We'll also use Confusion!" During this small Confusion competition vetween the two, Ralts looked like she didn't care at all by this.
Ash used the System candies to give it a little boost every day, now its abilities are closer to that of a Gardevoir than of a Kirlia.
With a flash of powerful pink-blue light, Ralts broke through the shackles of Medicham's Confusion. However, this moment was the opportunity that Grace wanted for their whole battle.
"Medicham, use Meditate and then use High Jump Kick!"
This was another of her combination skills, Medicham's Meditate makes it able to move more freely. It was like a ghost floating in the air and then jumping high in front of Ralts.
The shining High Jump Kick of the Fighting-type pushed towards Ralts. Its Ability, Pure Power, also boosted his attack to make sure that it is double that of its normal moves.
Although Ralts can copy this ability with Trace, unfortunately for Ralts, she does not have any good or all physical attacks.
Medicham's offensive was astonishing, but Ash and Ralts were also very synchronized, they even had that same eerie smile. Even without Ash's order, Ralts' figure suddenly moved to the side, just in time to avoid Medicham's attack.
"NOW SUFFER!"
If Medicham's High Jump kick misses its target, it will cause great damage to itself. Since Medicham's attack was too fierce and it also missed because the High Jump Kick hit the ground, it caused Medicham to suffer huge damage immediately.
Togetic applauded above Ash's and Pikachu's head, these two little ones are become better and better at being a cheerleader.
"The last blow!" Ash smiled softly, Ralts suddenly appeared not far behind Medicham, and held up another one of her black balls!
"Medicham, come on, use Ice Punch to block it!" With Grace's encouragement, Medicham stood up, turned around and got ready to hit the Shadow Ball that had been thrown over to it.
It couldn't destroy it so smoke immediately came from the explosion that had enveloped him, making it lose its ability to fight.
"Medicham loses his ability to fight, being Ralts and Ash won this battle!" Brock announced the result of the game. He looked at Ralts. This little one has really improved so much and at such a high rate under Ash's careful training.
