Chereads / Pokemon: Bond Evolutions of Pokémon / Chapter 187 - 187. Powerful Enemy

Chapter 187 - 187. Powerful Enemy

"Come back, Scizor!"

Facing Ash's astonishing powerful Houndoom, Gary decisively took his Scizor back to rest.

He was being very rational and dealt with the situation according to his common sense. It was absolutely impossible for his Scizor to fight against such a powerful Fire-type Pokémon like Ash's Houndoom that restrains him so heavily.

"Brother Gary took his Scizor back!" Molly watched the battle in front of her in the viewing area, unable to take her eyes away from it for even a single split second.

"According to my brain, the Pokémons that can restrain the Fire and Dark- type Houndoom are the Fighting-types, the Ground-types, the Rock-types and the Water-types!" Brock's analysis was very accurate, "Now that Gary is at a disadvantage once again, he must try to turn the tide of the battle in his favor, or else his situation will only continue to get worse!"

"So, he will definitely send out one of those Pokémon types!" Misty also thought of this!

Sure enough, Gary took out the Poké Ball and kissed it gently, "Ash, you are really are worthy of being my rival. I want to show you my number one Pokémon!"

"Go, my beloved Blastoise!"

That's right, Gary's strongest Trump Card, a Pokémon with a very high Bond Value with him, is the Starter Pokémon he got from Professor Oak, and now it has completed its final evolution to a powerful looking Blastoise!

"Trainer Gary's fourth Pokémon is out - and its a Blastoise!"

His Blastoise is not that much shorter than Ash's own Blastoise in terms of pure size, and its momentum is also calm and strong. It is indeed the strongest Trump Card that Gary had trained!

"Then let's go, Houndoom, Flamethrower!" Ash took the lead in launching the attack to see what he will do next. Houndoom, the absolute leader, stamped on the ground, and everyone saw the faint appearance of black flames on the ground!

Black fire pillars are heading towards Blastoise in a straight single file line!

"What is this? In my 15 year career, I have never seen such dark flames like these!" The commentator was very much confused and would like an explanation.

"Blastoise, use Hydro Pump!" The Hydro Pump spurting out from the two metal cannons on his back collided with Houndoom's Flamethrower, and the water vapor filled the air for a while, blocking everyone's vision!

However, even so just then, both Gary and Ash actually issued their attack orders at the same time!

"Blastoise, use Water Pulse!"

"Houndoom, Dark Pulse!"

Blasts were stirred up in this rock venue, and the evil energy fluctuations were also like blasts on their own, lapping towards Blastoise like there wasn't anything to stop it!

After the two collided in the center of the field, a violent explosion occurred!

The blast of wind immediately dispersed all the large amounts of water vapors, and also blasted Blastoise and Houndoom back quiet a bit of distance!

They were now back at their original position, as if they didn't move at all.

Professor Oak's eyes lit up while watching the match, and he couldn't help but praise, "Yesss, wonderful, they are all good talents that will lead the future generation and the generations to come!"

Professor Oak was also a very strong Trainer when he was young. He could see the techniques at a glance and was able to launch attacks without hesitation in such a limited field of vision. This is because he has complete trust in all of his Pokémon!

This is the power that a great bond can give to the Trainer and their Pokémon's. It is absolutely impossible to achieve this without a strong bond between both the Trainer and Pokémon at the same time!

It goes without saying that Gary and Blastoise have a very high Bond Value, but how can this compare to Ash and his Houndoom taht are connected by more than any bond can ever explain?

"Houndoom, it doesn't matter!" Ash could feel Houndoom's condition. After all, a strong Water-type attack can do a lot of damage to him, and his Houndooms defense couldn't compare with the very bulky Blastoise!

"Blastoise, come on, Hydro Cannon!" Gary was so ready that he actually used the ultimate move that can only be used by the Water-type Royal Starters as of so far!

"Foul Play!"

Of course, an ultimate move like this cannot be activated that quickly, and the Dark-type has various skills that can be activated quickly and do something about this!

Houndoom got the order and rushed towards Blastoise, but something strange happened. In front of Gary and Blastoise, Houndoom's figure split into two!

This is not the move Double Team that he can learn, Gary can't tell which Houndoom is the real one and which is the fake one!

However, Gary frowned and unlucky pointed his finger at the fake Houndoom and gave the order, "Let's hope Lady Luck is on our side! Blastoise, attack that Houndoom!"

Boom!

Unexpectedly, Blastoise still managed to hit the range where the Houndoom was. The power of the Water-type ultimate move instantly made Houndoom lose most of its health and he fell to the ground!

"What?"

Brock, Misty and Molly all exclaimed, how did Blastoise hit Houndoom? Isn't that one a fake Houndoom?

"Ash, looks like I win this round!" Gary happily exclaimed.

He was doing reverse thinking, because he was very aware of Houndoom's Foul Play attack, which made it turn into two different figures, and it was obvious which one was the real one, and then lured him to attack.

If he really attacks the real one and gets hit by the Foul Play skill, then Blastoise will be in danger if he misses it with one move.

It's like betting on big or small, choosing one of the two, and Gary won his bet with Lady Luck!

In this battle, he managed to do a significant amount of damage to Ash's Houndoom to the point where it was breathing very tiredly but still ready for battle.

Gary had used both his knowledge and courage in this battle!

Ash took back his injured but not out of battle Houndoom, which was also his first Pokémon in the whole tournament that was damaged to this point, "Gary, you are really are strong! And here I wanted to keep my record…. sigh."

Now, Gary has lost one of his Pokémon while the other two are injured, especially his Nidoqueen who was in much worse condition than Ash's own Houndoom, so the balance of victory is still leaning on Ash's side, after all, he doesn't have any of his Pokémon's out yet. His Houndoom could most likely return back to a battle ready state soon enough, and that was his most damaged Pokémon!

"How should I deal with you next? Alright then! Get ready for a total frenzy, Venusaur!"

The Poké Ball thrown out by Ash was once again caused a sensation in the audience!

Venusaur versus Blastoise, this is another battle between the three Royal Starter Families l! And this time, it's a battle between the Grass-type Starter against the Water-type Starter in Kanto!

"Trainer Ash's third Pokémon turns out to be a giant Venusaur. How will the fateful battle between Kanto's Royal Starters play out?!"

Seeing this Venusaur, Gary was also surprised, "Ash, did you prepare this specially for my Blastoise?"

"Of course, Gary, in order to fight you with all my strength, I put a lot of effort into forming this team! My Venusaur has been waiting to fight against you and your Blastoise for a long time!" Ash said with a very confident smile.

However, in fact, when he prepared for Gary's Blastoise, it was not just Venusaur alone!

He was very much aware of Gary's fighting style. Although he has restrained himself after the Johto Region, he caught l more than 200 Pokémon when he was in the Kanto Region alone!

He also often changes training his Pokémon's, and most of his Pokémon have a good strength to fall back on, so unlike Macy and Jackson, which have obvious weaknesses, Ash can easily target them.

But because of this, except for Blastoise, the strength of his other Pokémon is not a problem for Ash, so Ash specifically targeted this Blastoise when forming a team for this battle!

"Do you think you can defeat my Blastoise based on just a plan?" Gary's fighting spirit was burning hot. He will have to rely on his Blastoise to turn the tide of the battle in one go. "Blastoise, use Hydro Pump!"

This time Hydro Pump is more powerful than before, obviously inspired by Gary's previous Hydro Cannon.

"Frenzy Plant!"

A fierce light flashed in Ash's eyes, and Venusaur directly used the Grass-type Starters ultimate move!
