Pokémon Heart Journey

The brief lull brought on by two consecutive draws was quickly replaced by a more intense fighting spirit. The massive, charred pit in the center of the field silently spoke of the brutality of the previous battle.

Xiao Mao took a deep breath, and his fingertips accurately pressed the switch of a Poké Ball.

"Go, Shock Monster!"

There was a heavy thud as a massive figure descended upon the scene! Its sturdy, yellow and black body was filled with explosive power, and its two cable-like tails twisted freely behind it, sending up tiny sparks of electricity.

On its stern face, a pair of eyes flashed with a calm and dangerous light. Just standing there, it exuded a suffocating sense of oppression!

"It's the Electric Shock Monster!"

In the audience, Sundae exclaimed, "I remember its characteristics seemed to be..."

Yu Longyuan's expression was serious: "Electrical engine. This is troublesome."

Serena and the others also looked worried, as they all knew what this feature meant.

In the VIP room, Sheba folded his arms and commented: "Oh? A big guy has come up. It's the Electric Engine. Now Xiaozhi is in trouble."

Kona pushed his glasses up. "According to the known information, the two Pokémon that Xiaozhi hasn't appeared yet are Pikachu and Charizard, and there's also a used Iron Bag. Two of them have unfavorable attributes, and one of them has an Electric-type move blocked."

"Xiaozhi, we are in trouble this time," said Yulongdu with his arms crossed.

On the field, Xiaozhi's heart sank when he saw Electabuzz. Its Electric Engine trait meant that any Electric-type attacks against it would not only be ineffective, but would actually increase its speed! This effectively blocked most of Pikachu's offensive options!

However, Xiaozhi's eyes did not flinch at all, instead they burned even brighter. The stronger the opponent, the more it would inspire him and his friends to fight!

"Pikachu!" Ash didn't hesitate and sent out his most trusted partner. "Prepare for battle!"

"Pikachu!" Pikachu leaped from Ash's shoulder and landed on the charred ground. Golden sparks crackled from the electric sacs on his cheeks, and he looked at the behemoth with a determined look. Despite the huge size difference, his aura was no less impressive!

"Pikachu? You know the characteristics of the electric engine, and you still send Pikachu?" Xiao Mao raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, and then revealed a hint of sneer, "Let me see how you fight, Electric Beast, Electric Field!"

The electric monster roared, clashing its fists fiercely! Dazzling golden lightning erupted from its body, spreading rapidly across the entire field like ripples! In an instant, the entire battlefield was covered in a vibrant golden electric grid. The charge concentration in the air surged, and every inch of space was filled with vibrant electrical energy!

"It's an electric field! Hypnosis skills within the area are ineffective, and the power of all electric skills is increased!" the commentator exclaimed, "But this is more beneficial to electric monsters with electric engines!"

"Pikachu, lightning!" Xiaozhi took the lead in attacking, trying to seize the initiative!

Pikachu turned into a golden lightning and rushed towards the electric monster at an extremely fast speed!

"Ice Fist!" Xiao Mao responded calmly.

Although the Electric Beast looks bulky, its reaction is extremely fast. A huge fist instantly condenses with cold ice energy, bringing with it a biting chill. It accurately predicts Pikachu's movement trajectory and punches down!

Bang! Pikachu narrowly avoided the edge of the Frozen Fist, the icy wind from the punch stinging its skin. After landing, it nimbly jumped back a few times to create distance.

"One hundred thousand volts!" Xiaozhi tried a long-range attack.

A powerful golden electric current rushed out from Pikachu's body and hit the electric shock beast!

However, this scene made most of the people present raise their brows.

An astonishing scene unfolded! The 100,000 volts of electricity, powerful enough to knock down most Pokémon, vanished like a drop in the ocean the moment it struck Electrify, effortlessly absorbed by its body! At the same time, an even brighter flash of lightning erupted from Electrify's back, its speed clearly increasing by a notch!

Electric engine, trigger!

"Oh, no matter what, you have to try it before you know what you mean. How naive!" Xiao Mao, who immediately understood Xiaozhi's idea, sneered, "Electric Beast, Thunder Fist!"

The electric shock beast, its speed soaring from absorbing the electricity, transformed into a yellow-black lightning bolt and instantly approached Pikachu. Its huge fist was wrapped in violent thunder and smashed down! The speed was far faster than before!

"Get out of the way!" Xiaozhi shouted hurriedly.

Pikachu increased its speed to the extreme and rolled to the side in a panic to avoid it!

Boom! The lightning fist smashed into the ground, creating a charred hole. The flying debris brushed past Pikachu's body!

"Continuous Thunder Punch!"

The Electric Beast, taking advantage of its power, swung its fists alternately, sending bolts of lightning towards Pikachu like a raging storm! With the combined power of the electric field and its increased speed, its offensive was breathtakingly fierce!

Pikachu used the lightning flash and high-speed movement to the extreme. His petite body shuttled and jumped in the dense lightning, and every dodge was extremely thrilling!

But the speed of the electric beast increased, and the terrifying wind from its fists kept blowing past. Occasionally, it would be hit, causing Pikachu to groan in pain and his physical strength to be rapidly depleted.

"Pikachu!" Xiaozhi watched with utter anxiety, his mind racing. Electric-type skills were ineffective, and his speed was outpaced by his opponent. At this rate, defeat was only a matter of time! He had to find a solution!

"Electric Beast, don't give it a chance to breathe, use Earthquake!" Xiao Mao intended to put an end to it once and for all. Earthquake was useless under the electric field, and he was obviously trying to force Pikachu to jump, thus creating a better opportunity to attack.

Upon hearing this, the Electric Shock Monster immediately raised its huge paw and was about to stompush on the ground!

Now! A gleam of light flashed in Xiaozhi's eyes! The prelude to the earthquake!

"Pikachu, right now, use Iron Tail on the ground beneath it!"

Pikachu, who was moving at high speed, understood what he meant and suddenly turned around. His iron tail shone with metallic luster. He didn't whip towards the electric beast itself, but smashed it hard towards the ground where it was about to land!

Bang! The iron tail smashed into the ground, sending smoke and debris flying. This disrupted the electric shock beast's vision and movements, causing a brief delay in the activation of its earthquake!

And this hesitation of less than half a second is the opportunity that Xiaozhi has been waiting for!

"Flash of lightning!" Xiaozhi shouted with all his might!

Pikachu's entire body was instantly enveloped in dazzling white light, transforming into a sharp arrow shot from a bow. Taking advantage of the moment when the electric beast's vision was blocked and its movements were slow, it slammed into its relatively vulnerable abdomen!

Boom!!! A dull thud! A flash of lightning struck with a firm impact!

"Roar!!" The electric shock beast let out a painful roar, and its huge body was knocked back several steps by the impact force concentrated at one point, and a sharp pain came from its abdomen!

"It's not over yet!" Xiao Mao remained calm despite his shock. "Catch it! Break the tiles!"

The electric monster endured the pain, and its huge palm flashed with white fighting light. It grabbed Pikachu with incredible swiftness, as the Pikachu was temporarily suspended in mid-air due to the collision and could not gain any leverage!

This grab was as fast as lightning, and Pikachu was about to be held in his hand!

"Pikachu, use Iron Tail on its palm again!" Xiaozhi thought of a quick idea!

Pikachu turned around in the air with difficulty, and its iron tail lit up again, lashing out fiercely at the palm of the electric beast that was grabbing it!

Snap! The iron tail collided with the tile-splitting blade, making a crisp sound! Pikachu used the force to fly backwards, narrowly avoiding capture, but the recoil also sent his blood boiling.

"It's over! Thunder!" Xiao Mao's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he issued the ultimate command! With the blessing of the electric field, the power of this thunder will be terrifying to the extreme!

Pikachu, sent flying backward, had no way to dodge! The cable-like tail of the Shockmon pointed skyward, energizing the entire electrical field! Terrifying thunderclouds instantly gathered at the top of the field, and a massive lightning column, far larger than normal in diameter and resembling a divine punishment, descended, engulfing Pikachu's tiny form!

"Pikachu!!!" Pikachu's scream of pain was heard in the golden lightning!

The lightning dissipated, and Pikachu lay on the ground with his body charred black. His small body twitched and he was about to lose consciousness.

"Pikachu!" Xiaozhi was heartbroken.
