A water-type trainer who specializes in dragon-type water.

"Rage—!!!"

Moltres responded to the trainer's anger, the blazing flames gathering beneath its wings reaching their peak!

That was no longer just a simple hot wind, but like a solar storm being stripped off and poured down!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The golden-red torrent of divine fire fell like a waterfall from the heavens, instantly engulfing the hideous and twisted thorny jungle that Mad Vine had created with Z-power!

There is no burning process, only complete annihilation!

The extreme heat caused the thorns, scorched earth, and even the rocks below to vaporize and vitrify in an instant!

The blinding light turned the entire island into a white expanse, and the terrifying heat radiated outwards, evaporating the surrounding seawater into towering white steam, making the island seem as if it were in a giant steamer!

Just one flap of wings, one breath!

The thorny hell that had been growing wildly and trying to devour everything had vanished, replaced by a vast, smooth, and shimmering, dark red, vitrified crater.

The entire island seemed to have been brutally wiped away by a giant hand, leaving it bare, deathly still, and scorching hot.

"Hmph, this is how filth should be purified..." Li Xingeng snorted coldly, but his gaze remained sharply fixed on that area.

He knew all too well how troublesome the Grass-type power was, especially the strange life force that had fused with the power of a divine beast.

Sure enough, a sudden change occurred!

Beneath that glassy ground, something seemed unwilling to perish.

Strands and strands of rich, emerald-green energy, like a living venomous snake, stubbornly seeped out again from the cracks!

Immediately afterwards, "crack, crack..." the glass floor made a shattering sound.

Countless new, thicker, sharper thorns, shimmering with an ominous purplish-black light, burst forth from the ground at a speed ten times faster than before! They twisted and intertwined, forming an even denser and more malevolent wall of thorns in the blink of an eye, as if mocking the powerlessness of the flames!

"Wildfire cannot burn it all..." Li Xingeng frowned, the ancient poem sounding particularly jarring at this moment. "This damned thing is more troublesome than I imagined!"

Just as he was about to order the Moltres to carry out a second, more thorough incineration—

A low, dense buzzing sound, like the simultaneous flapping of wings of millions of bees, came from afar, surging in from the distant horizon like a tide!

Li Xingeng looked up, his tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, and his eyes burst with surprise!

They've arrived! His reinforcements are here!

On the horizon, a silvery-gray "cloud" was approaching at an alarming speed!

That wasn't a real cloud, but a huge army made up of thousands of Magnemite and Magneton!

Their bodies spun, their magnetic poles humming and resonating, gleaming with a cold metallic luster, like a deadly metallic storm!

"Electromagnetic army!" With a determined heart and a surge of heroic spirit, Li Xingeng roared with all his might, "Now—the Big Bang!"

His order was not to let them self-destruct, but to launch a general offensive!

The moment Kameda and Park Chang saw this ocean of Magneton, their faces turned deathly pale!

As champions, they know all too well how terrifying this tactic is!

"Get back!" the two shouted almost simultaneously, trying to recall their Pokémon and move away.

But it's too late!

The Magnetic properties of the Magnetic Pokémon activated instantly! Park Chang's two Skarmory, which had just taken off to try to escape, were suddenly caught by an invisible giant hand, their bodies abruptly frozen in place!

Countless Magnemite and Magneton, like iron filings attracted by a magnet, buzzed and swarmed forward, instantly enveloping the two Skarmory in layers.

Park Chang reacted quickly, leaping off Skarmory and slamming the Poké Ball down. A giant Manta Ray came to rest on the sea surface. Park Chang did a somersault in the air and landed steadily on top of it, looking up at the Skarmory with fear in his eyes.

They quickly took out Poké Balls, trying to recall them, but there were too many Magnemite, blocking the red light emitted by the Poké Balls.

No matter how much the Skarmory struggled and tried to cut with its air blades, it would just keep taking over as soon as one batch was chopped up. It was impossible to get rid of it!

Chiyuki Suzuki reacted extremely quickly, issuing the order in a sharp voice.

"Mega Mawile, dig a hole!"

"Registeel, gravity!"

Mega Maw of Venus instantly burrowed underground to escape the terrifying metal tide.

Regischiru's seven red dots flashed rapidly, and a massive gravitational field suddenly descended from its center!

The Magnemites that tried to approach it slowed down drastically, their magnetic properties were greatly weakened, and they fell from the sky like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

However, there are too many!

Despite the suppression of gravity, countless small Magnemites still managed to attach themselves to its huge steel body or pile up at its feet, quickly building up a constantly wriggling and growing steel mountain around it!

While Kameda's Mega Venusaur was unaffected by magnetism, its massive size and relatively slow speed meant that it was also surrounded by a surging ocean of Magneton, with countless cold metal parts colliding with its body.

"Explode!" Li Xingeng's roar was like a final judgment.

The next moment, all the Magnemite and Magneton simultaneously emitted a blinding white light!

However, this is not an explosion caused by the uncontrolled release of energy in the normal system, but rather the ultimate release of highly compressed electrical energy!

"Zzz ...

It was as if billions of tiny lightning bolts erupted at once!

Countless pale white electric currents intertwined to form a terrifying electric grid that covered the entire battlefield!

This was not a one-time explosive shock, but a continuous, indiscriminate electromagnetic pulse baptism!

"Roar!!"

Regischiru emitted a dull electronic sound, and countless sparks danced on its massive steel body. Although it was not destroyed by the attack thanks to its extremely high special defense, the omnipresent weak current penetrated its defenses, causing its massive body to tremble slightly and its movements to become noticeably sluggish!

Paralyzed!

"Bah!"

The armored birds, encased in iron balls, fared even worse. Electric current surged through their steel bodies, causing them to cry out in agony as they plummeted to the ground, convulsing. They too had fallen into a state of paralysis!

Mega Venusaur let out a painful roar, its huge flower and vine whips lashing wildly in the electric current, but it could not escape the overwhelming attack, and its movements became stiff.

Even Mega Mawile, which had burrowed underground, was affected by the weak electric current conducted through the earth, causing it to move a beat slower.

China's tactics have succeeded!

Of course, China cannot, like in the South China Sea, send innocent ice creams directly into Chinese camps to carry out suicidal attacks, as it did with Kyurem.

Magnemite is a special Pokémon that is not a traditional life form. It is a special Pokémon that is formed by mutation caused by special steel being stored in a specific magnetic field.

The attack depleted all their stored energy, leaving them as piles of dull, clanging metal parts scattered on the ground. However, they can be "resurrected" by recycling and recharging.

This is a valuable large-scale combat tactic left by the first Southwest Champion—an electromagnetic ocean tactic targeting enemy steel fleets and Steel-type Pokémon!

They effectively destroyed the enemy's iron torrent, and then, with their massive army pressing in, they captured the city in one fell swoop.

"Kameda! Park Chang!" Suzuki Chiyuki trembled with rage. Seeing her two teammates' main forces crippled in an instant, she roared shrilly, "The Chinese champions are now tied down! You two go and sweep through their fleet, eliminate these damned minions!"

Upon hearing this, Kameda and Park Chang immediately recalled their Mega Venusaur and Skarmory, which had lost their ability to battle. Without hesitation, they released other Pokémon that were good at high-speed movement or diving, which transformed into two streaks of light and rushed towards the Chinese fleet at full speed!

"Firebird! Stop them!" Li Xingeng exclaimed in alarm. He absolutely could not allow two champion-level soldiers to slaughter ordinary soldiers!

"Don't even think about it! Regischiru, the Primal Power!" Suzuki Chiyuki would never let him have his way.

Regischiru, who had just barely recovered from the paralysis, slammed his arms into the ground again!

Five enormous fossilized rock blocks roared as they crashed down on Moltres and Mega Charizard Y!

Rock-type moves pose a deadly threat against Fire and Flying types, being four times super effective against them!

Almost simultaneously, in that newly grown thorny thicket, Zarude's savage roar rang out, and two equally massive rocks (rockfalls) shot out like cannonballs, blocking all possible evasion routes for Moltres and Charizard Y!

"Damn it! Defense!"

Li Xingeng was forced to abandon the pursuit and gave a stern order.

"Violent!"

The firebird's body surged with divine flames, its wings folded, and an incredibly condensed golden-red flame shield instantly formed!

"Roar!"

Mega Charizard Y also unleashed its full power, its blazing white flames intertwining with Moltres to form a massive fire barrier!

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!

Seven massive rocks, imbued with the raw power of the earth and jungle, crashed into the two fiery defenses one after another like meteors! A deafening series of explosions erupted!

Flames and debris flew everywhere, and the terrifying energy shock instantly dispersed the pervasive steam. Black smoke and turbulent energy mixed together, forming a death zone that obscured visibility!

Taking advantage of the cover and brief moment of stun created by the explosion, Kameda and Park Chang had already fled far away, their figures disappearing into the sea.

The black mist slowly dissipated, revealing Moltres and Charizard Y, who looked slightly disheveled but had successfully blocked the attack.

Li Xingeng gazed at the distant fleet, his heart heavy. The surprise attack by two champion trainers posed a devastating threat to the fleet.

Amidst this chaos, Mega Charizard X, which had been lying in wait, finally moved!

Its trainer is Zhang Leiyuan, and its primary goal is to defeat the enemy in front of it as soon as possible so as to help its master who is fighting the two gods alone!

"Roar!!!"

With a furious roar, it seized the moment when Regischiru had just unleashed his primal power and his movements were slowed by paralysis. It gathered indigo dragon energy (dragon claws) in its claws that could tear space apart, and with the help of the hard claws, it wanted to tear the steel giant apart!

however--

"boom!!!"

The ground beneath Regischiru's feet suddenly exploded!

Mega Mawile, which had previously burrowed underground, burst out like a ghost! The timing was incredibly precise!

Dragon-type energy has no effect on Fairy-type Mega Mawile!

The dragon claw struck its hard steel jaws, sending sparks flying, but failed to cause any damage!

Mega Mawile grinned maliciously, its huge jaws opened, and a heavy earth force (Ground-type move) instantly erupted, slamming into the belly of Charizard X, which was wide open due to its missed attack!

Boom! ! !

After Charizard X completes its Mega Evolution, it loses its Flying type, so Ground-type moves are extremely effective against it!

"Ow—!"

Charizard X let out a painful howl as its massive body was blasted away by the powerful Dig, crashing heavily onto the glassy ground in the distance. It slid for dozens of meters before coming to a stop, its abdominal skin shattering and oozing hot dragon blood.

It struggled to its feet, looking at the small but terrifyingly powerful double-jawed fairy, its eyes burning with even more furious flames.

Li Xingeng glanced at Charizard X, who was struggling to get up but whose fighting spirit was even stronger, and then looked at the thorny jungle at his feet that was writhing and growing again, as if it had an immortal life. His eyes sharpened, and he made a decision in an instant.

"Mega Charizard Y! Mega Charizard X!" His voice boomed like thunder, echoing across the battlefield. "Mouthwa and Registeel, you two are in charge of dealing with them!"

He must prioritize eliminating this most troublesome Zarude, with its incredible regenerative abilities, and its trainer! Otherwise, this battlefield will never see peace!

"I'll deal with this damn jungle and those monkeys first!"

His gaze, like the most intense flame, was fixed on that deep, twisted wall of thorns, radiating an ominous aura.

Moltres sensed its trainer's determination, and its divine flames surged once more, creating a new confrontation with the evil jungle below!
