"So this place is named Rikishii Town!"
Ash and his party came to another new town on their way to Olivine City, and the whole town seemed to exude a comfortable sense of openness.
Boom! Boom!
There seemed to be a violent collision of something big, and the group became interested in the noise.
They went over to take a look, only to find that a Feraligatr was wrestling with a Nidoking. Feraligatr lifted the entire Nidoking up and threw it out. It was a true strongman, and it made the Nidoking cower in fear.
"Okay, next one!" shouted a strong young man, who was obviously the trainer of this powerful Feraligatr.
"It's a Feraligatr!" As a Water Pokémon trainer, Misty certainly likes Feraligatr. It's powerful and cool, but she doesn't have the luck to catch any of its evolution line.
However, Ash's Croconaw is about very near to evolving!
Nidoking, Ursaring, Heracross. . . These Pokémon take turns battling one after the other, obviously giving special training to this Feraligatr!
This Feraligatr is indeed very powerful. After wrestling with it repeatedly, it didn't look tired by much.
It's a pity that his Croconaw was sent back to Slowking in the lab for training by him, otherwise it really could have been used to this to his next form in battle.
Now the Pokémon around him are somewhat fixed.
In addition to Pikachu and Meganium who accompanied the trip, there were also Raikou who did not teleport back after being caught, and Snorlax who was always with him no matter the situation.
Now he is surrounded by the newly evolved Typhlosion and the newly born Lapras.
Pikachu and Meganium have completed their Bond Evolutions, and Meganium is also responsible for traveling with Molly, so she has always occupied a spot in the team.
Ash didn't want to send the Legendary Pokémon back to lab and let him be tort- examined by Professor Oak.
The compatibility of this Raikou is very high. Ash really wants to complete its Bind Evolution and make it a real Beast of Thunder in that form!
The newly evolved Typhlosion's bonding value also increased with the improvement of compatibility, reaching 246/255.
The degree of compatibility is still short of the final 9 points, and it will take a period of training to complete his Bond Evolutions. It will be even faster if he gets into a good battle with another strong Pokémon.
As for the newly born Lapras, he didn't rush to train it, let it grow up a little longer, wait until it reaches the beach area for some training then.
Feraligatr defeated several more Pokémon before being stopped by the young man.
An old man behind him praised, "The fight was quite exciting!"
"My Feraligatr and I will definitely win the championship in this year's Pokémon Sumo Conference!" Obviously he is very confident in his Feraligatr from the way he is talking!
Pokémon Sumo Conference?
Good news again!
After coming forward to get to know them, Ash and his party met Feraligatr's Trainer, who is also the owner of the Pokémon Sumo Wrestling Hall where everyone is now, named Raiden.
And this white-bearded old man is Mr. Shonosuke, the chairman of the Pokémon Sumo Association.
He looked at Ash with a smile, "You guys are lucky to come on this special day!"
Today is the day of the Pokémon Sumo Conference, and Feraligatr is practicing for this.
The so-called Pokémon Sumo is a competition in which the use of special moves such as Water Gun and Flamethrower is prohibited, and fighting is fought with bare hands.
After canceling the use of various moves, the battle returns to the most primal melee combat, which has a unique flavor to it!
Ash decided to use Snorlax to participate in this Sumo Conference. Its bonding value is increasing every day, and now it has accumulated to 243, only the last 12 points is needed for him to pulverize everything!
So, first of all, you have to go to the Pokémon Center in the Town to register.
According to regulations, the weight of Pokémon participating in the competition must be more than 80 kilograms, so Nurse Joy is busy weighing the participating Pokémon.
Ash discovered the appearance of the Rockets trio again. They actually let Wobbuffet put on the leather sheath of a large Miltank, which happened to reach the basic weight of 80 kilograms.
The winning reward for this competition is a year's supply of Pokémon food, which is a huge fortune for Team Rocket.
No wonder they want to participate at all costs.
But looking at the small scale Nurse Joy was using, Ash was a little embarrassed, "Nurse Joy, if this is broken, you don't have to pay for it, right?"
Nurse Joy smiled and said no.
But he would better be on the safe side and summoned Snorlax aside.
With higher and higher bonding value, Ash can directly wake up Snorlax, so it has already woken up from his sleep just now.
Today, Snorlax is over 2.5 meters tall and weighs nearly 600 kilograms. Just coming out of the Poké Ball caused the entire Pokémon Center to tremble.
If he really stood on that scale, it would definitely be crushed.
"You really don't need to weigh it. Just by looking at it, you can tell it's over 80 kilograms. You can participate in the competition! This Snorlax is trained very well. I've never seen such a huge Snorlax in my whole career!"
Nurse Joy is very grateful for Ash's gentleness. With her professional vision, she also knows that Ash has done a very good job with his Snorlaxs training.
"Why does it feel like it's getting bigger and bigger!" Misty would often rest on Snorlax's belly as a mega mattress along the way, but every time she sees it, it feels like it was still growing.
Molly ran over and pressed herself against Snorlax's soft and elastic belly, "Haha, Snorlax, it feels so comfortable!"
"Everyone, this year's Pokémon Sumo Conference is here again. Which Pokémon will win this year? I look forward to the fierce battles that you are ready to show!" Mr. Shonosuke announced that the conference is about to begin.
Ash stood with Snorlax and Raiden, "Ash, your Snorlax is trained very well!"
Different from the sleepy and lazy Snorlax that he usually see, he can feel his strong this Snorlax is.
Of course, this is the Snorlax that Ash trusts the most besides Charizard and Pikachu.
From the very beginning, the bond was very high.
"Mr. Raiden, your powerful Feriligatr is also very powerful!" Ash said modestly.
Not only the Feraligatr from Raiden, Ash also noticed a very strong Blastoise. The final opponent of his should be one of these two!
Mr. Shonosuke announced the start of the first game.
The two sides of the competition were Wobbuffet disguised as a Miltank against a tall Ursaring.
Jessie allowed "Miltank" to successfully counter Ursaring with a return punch, but was disqualified from the competition. Jessie was really unhappy and wanted to beat the other trainer to make trouble, but Ash pushed her out.
"Ash?"
"Just stay still and I won't beat you away!"
