Pokémon: Master System.

However, they now have more than a dozen Pokémon with near-champion level or higher, which is enough to deal with this giant Lapras!

…………

Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Xiao Wanyu leave safely. Xiao Wanyu's departure freed him from all restraints, allowing him to launch his attack with unrestrained force.

"Giants, surrender and reveal the secret of the giant Pokémon, and we might consider sparing your life."

Qi Linlong's voice rang out, a confident smile on his face, looking as if victory was assured.

Hearing Qi Linlong's words, Xia Yu sneered and looked coldly at everyone present.

He didn't recognize any of these people, but at this moment Xia Yu looked at each of them deeply, wanting to clearly remember the appearance of everyone present.

It's best not to let yourself escape, otherwise they will all pay the price for what happened today.

…………

Although he had these thoughts in mind, Xia Yu's primary concern was not revenge, but how to break through the encirclement.

Currently, most of his Pokémon are below the Gym Leader level, with only Gallade, Darkrai, Ironhide, and Gigantamax Lapras capable of participating in battles.

As for the newly captured Gigantamax Brim and Gigantamax Troll, they are not yet under his command, and they have already fallen into a coma after the battle, so they are naturally unable to participate.

Gallade's Elite Four-level strength is already somewhat insufficient in the face of a group of Pokémon with near-Champion and Champion-level strength. Darkrai was also seriously injured in the previous battle, and even though it had just been healed by Cresselia, its injuries were not yet fully healed.

Finally, Xia Yu's elder brother, Iron Warrior, could not reveal his strength in this battle due to his unique identity.

Therefore, Xia Yu can only rely on Gigantamax Lapras at this moment.

Is it possible for a Gigantamax Lapras to fight against six Champion-level Pokémon and nearly ten near-Champion-level Pokémon, especially on land?

Xia Yu felt heavy-hearted.

Should I use the crescent moon feather given by the God of Dreams to ask for help? But will it respond and descend to the mortal world?

Xia Yu shook his head. Rather than placing his hopes on some ethereal deity, Xia Yu preferred to believe in his own Pokémon.

He never places his hopes on others!

Perhaps because the threat of death lingered in his mind, Xia Yu smiled instead. The more critical the moment, the less he should show fear or panic.

"You think you can make me surrender?" Xia Yu chuckled, his tone full of sarcasm.

Fate is never something you give by kneeling and begging others; it's something you earn through your own strength.

"Still being stubborn even when you're about to die? I'd like to see if you can still be so defiant! Take him down! Try to capture him alive, but if that's not possible, then kill him!" Qi Linlong's voice rang out, and he then commanded the Pokémon to launch an attack!

Chapter 417 The Deadly Plan

"Firestorm Beast, breathe fire!"

"Coal Turtle, breathe fire!"

Qi Linlong immediately ordered the Firestorm Beast and Coal Turtle to launch their most ferocious attack.

Full health and bursting fire!

Fire Breath, as one of the strongest fire-type skills, is a rather unique skill.

Its power is not fixed, but varies depending on the Pokémon's HP.

When at full health, the power of the fire breath is exactly the same as that of the explosive burning, reaching 150, and there are no side effects.

The combination of Torkoal and Typhlosion, two Fire-type Pokémon, with their combined Flamethrower, was like the most arrogant arsonists, instantly igniting the night. The rolling flames enveloped the entire fluorescent forest.

Rolling waves of flames swept in, adding even more heat to the already sweltering summer, turning everyone a fiery red.

"Blaziken, Swords Dance!" Pachat wasn't in a hurry to attack. With the other Pokémon attacking, he had Blaziken use Swords Dance first to greatly enhance its attack.

Meanwhile, Blaziken's ability to speed up is constantly taking effect, making Blaziken faster and faster in battle.

"Miss Goth, mental attack!" Wen Gu's voice rang out, and he immediately ordered Miss Goth to launch an attack.

Psychic energy erupted from Miss Gothic's body, transforming into energy blades that slammed into Laplace.

"Kuchiki Demon, wooden mallet!"

"Sandfortress Lord, Shadow Ball!"

Dick, who was left behind, also commanded his two Ghost-type Pokémon to join the attack.

The massive Wood Sprite condensed Grass-type energy in the air, forming a hard wooden mallet, which it slammed down on Gigantamax Lapras.

Sandstorm Lord unleashed a shadow ball from its body, tearing through the sky and heading straight for Gigantamax Lapras.

The scene reminded Xia Yu of the time he and Xiao Wanyu had just used their Pokémon to attack Gigantamax Grimmsnarl, only now the tables had turned and he was the one being attacked.

"Lapras, Max Guard!"

Xia Yu's voice rang out. Faced with such a siege of Pokémon, he had no choice but to immediately have Gigantamax Lapras use Max Guard.

A massive shield of light instantly formed, enveloping Gigantamax Lapras like a crystal ball and isolating it from the outside world.

The raging flames that blotted out the sky, along with all the attacks—psychic strikes, wooden hammers, and shadow orbs—were completely blocked.

Qi Linlong, Pachat, Dick, and Wingu were also surprised by what they saw. It was their first time fighting a Gigantamax Pokémon, and they did not know that Gigantamax Barrier had such outstanding defensive capabilities.

"Gigantamax Aurora Melody!" After blocking the attack, Xia Yu did not stop at all. He continued to command Gigantamax Lapras to use its exclusive Gigantamax move.

Under Xia Yu's command, the azure Gigantamax Lapras raised its long neck, gathered ice-type energy, and unleashed a beam of ice-type energy that shot into the sky.

The dark clouds in the sky were instantly dispersed, and countless huge ice balls formed in the air and fell rapidly.

What skill is this?

This was the first time they had ever seen a Gigantamax-exclusive move, and they had no idea what the effect of Gigantamax Aurora Melody was.

"Get out of the way, be careful."

Seeing the ice hockey puck falling from the sky, the four champions dared not let their Pokémon take the hit head-on. Instead, they all had their Pokémon dodge. Pokémon that were slow, like Torkoal, could not dodge and had to use Protect to minimize the damage they received and conserve their stamina.

After the ice puck falls, a seven-colored aurora curtain appears in the darkness, like a solid wall, standing in front of Gigantamax Lapras. In the ensuing battle, Gigantamax Lapras will take significantly less damage.

"Don't give him a chance, hurry up. He can't use Protect twice!" Qi Linlong stared at the aurora screen in front of Gigantamax Lapras, while also reminding the others beside him: "And watch out for Darkrai's sneak attack."

"Don't hold back, everyone. Don't forget, one person just escaped. If that person brings help to Sakaki, things will get complicated."

"If we let Sakaki go today, we'll have a hard time in the future."

Qi Linlong reminded everyone that the three of them were old foxes. Even when they were ganging up on "Gibberish", they didn't want their Pokémon to suffer losses and wanted others to rush to the front. But there's no such thing as a free lunch.

Since you've accepted the benefits, you have to do something in return.

If they really let Giovanni escape today, they'll be the ones in trouble once he recovers.

With Sakaki's strength, he could easily defeat any one of them in a one-on-one fight.

Hearing Qi Linlong's words, Dick's deep voice rang out: "In that case, I'll set an example. Rotten Wood Demon, use your full strength on the wooden mallet, don't hold back."

"Sandfortress Lord, you too, full power Shadow Ball!"

Although it was the exact same move, this time Dick's two Champion-level Pokémon showed no mercy.

The Wood Demon's body was covered in a bright green grass-based energy, shining brilliantly in the darkness. Then, the Wood Demon let out a low roar.

The dry, decaying wood was enveloped in grass-green energy, and its single, scarlet eye stared at Gigantamax Lapras as it launched a fierce charge.

On the other side, Sand Eater Lord was doing the same thing. Ghost-type energy surged from his body, and under the cover of night, it streaked across the sky like a long, dark rainbow as the Shadow Ball attacked.

With Dick leading the way, Pachart and Ungour had no choice but to go all out.

Any Pokémon will undergo a qualitative change once it reaches Champion level.

The so-called champion represents an absolute king.

Like the Gothic Miss Wengu in front of us, with a gentle wave of her hand, the super-energy within her body poured out like a torrent, seemingly even condensing the surrounding space.

The ancient trees surrounding Miss Gothic were uncontrollably uprooted and floated in the air, slowly rotating around her.

"Strong mental thoughts."

As Wengu's voice rang out, an invisible shock suddenly spread out, and the trees floating in the air were instantly snapped as if hit by a huge force, sweeping towards Gigantamax Lapras.

"Blazing Chicken, Brick Breaker!"

Pachat also had Blaziken, which had used Swords Dance once, launch an attack. While Brick Break isn't a particularly powerful move, it's twice as effective against Gigantamax Lapras.

Most importantly, it can also destroy the aurora curtain!

Although the aurora barrier created by Gigantamax Lapras is extremely large and won't be destroyed by Blaziken in one hit, it can definitely be destroyed if it's attacked a couple more times.

Finally, Qi Linlong went all out, unleashing his powerful double fire-breathing skill once again.

"Firestorm Beast, breathe fire!"

"Coal Turtle, breathe fire!"

…………

Faced with the combined attack of six Pokémon this time, Xia Yu had no other means of defense.

Xia Yu's eyes flashed, and at that moment he thought of a bold plan: "Laplace, Song of Destruction".

Xia Yu directly commanded Gigantamax Lapras to sing the Song of Doom.
