What is a heavy girl? I want to be a Pokémon master!

Absolutely...absolutely must not be discovered!

I'll just use this painting as my wallpaper when I get back!

Real paintings, on the other hand, can be preserved for a lifetime!

Chu Hua's gaze was somewhat heavy.

"Hapoo is probably praying to Tapu Fizz at the ruins on the other side. You can go there to see her."

After finishing several paintings, Jasmine gave a rather pleasant explanation.

"I understand, thank you, Jasmine~"

"Yes, I'm very grateful to you too, Miss Jasmine~"

After hearing these words, Ash and Hatsumi went to where Happu was.

The Other Shore Ruins: This is an important location on the island of Poni in the Alola region, inside a cave on the eastern side of the Poni Rocky Shore.

There are quite a few Pokémon around here, making Ash's hands itch to play. For example, there's Gastrodon, the father of Kyogre!

Another one is Wailord, a Pokémon lighter than air, weighing 398.0 kg and measuring 14.5 m, which is practically lighter than air.

Ash suspects that the Pokédex is all made up!

No... the encyclopedia was just made up anyway, since it was written by kids who left home at ten years old...

"Be careful, Chu Hua. If you can't hold on, I'll carry you."

Since this is a ruin, there are many uneven surfaces, so Ash moved very cautiously and slowly.

"Hmm?~"

...

"Oh no, I hope the trainers from Kanto don't come looking for me."

These past few days have been disastrous for Hapuu.

Suddenly, her grandfather passed away, leaving her no choice but to travel to the Other Shore Ruins and plead with Tapu Fini to grant her a meeting with her grandfather so she could learn about the island queen's location.

"Please, Tapu Fini, can I see my grandfather?"

Kapu's dense fog allows one to see deceased relatives, so Hapuu can only rely on him.

"Tapu~" But no matter what, Tapu Fini was always there dancing leisurely, with no intention of paying any attention.

"Is it no use today either?" Hapu sighed slightly, realizing that nothing else could be done, and decided to give up.

The king and queen of the islands are appointed by the guardian deity, and if the other party disagrees, there is nothing that can be done.

Is my guardian angel a little incompetent?

Does that mean I have to overthrow my superiors?

With this thought in mind, Hapuu turned around helplessly, preparing to return with the heavy mud horse.

However... this time, Tapu Finch's fins are clearly not quite right.

"Tapu—!"

As if sensing something, Tapu Fini rushed to the front of Hapuu with a strong storm.

"Tapu Fini?!...Hmm? What's wrong?"

Hapwu was puzzled.

She did understand that Tapu Finch was excited.

What is your own guardian angel so excited about?

But Hapuu quickly understood, because a boy wearing a hat was walking over from not far away.

153 Ash and Pikachu...wait, is that legal?

Tapu Fizz is excited about him.

Ash shook his head and flicked the water droplets. Because Tapu Fini's place had some issues, he had swum over. Chu Hua was waiting for him not far away.

This has resulted in Ash being alone at the moment, and he has also met Tapu Fini and Happou.

So that really is the waveguide of Tapu Fini?

Yesterday... Ash could vaguely sense that something was spying on him, and he felt a burning desire within himself, perhaps because he had successfully challenged the Totem Pokémon.

Don't ask, it's just a waveguide!

I don't use it often ≠ I can't unleash the Rasengan to beat up others.

Maybe in the future I'll be able to hand-make Rasengan (Aura Spheres) and one at a time!

If I could learn ninjutsu from Denji, that would be perfect.

Although Ash doesn't know how to use Aura, he can roughly understand Tapu Fini's feelings.

As a trainer, Ash understood at a glance that the other person wanted to battle him!

That's fine. Since you want to fight me, I'll use all my cheat codes to satisfy you!

The flames in Ash's eyes burned even brighter.

"Tapui Fini, battle me!"

What...what does this person mean?!

“Tapu Fizz, don’t be angry... I’ll go teach him a lesson right now.”

Hapuu stared at the other person in disbelief, feeling a sense of panic.

Although Tapu Fini is known as a guardian deity, it can sometimes bring terrible disasters to anyone who gets too close.

"Tapu!!"

But to Hapwu's even greater surprise, Tapu Fizz nodded and agreed without any hesitation.

It was obvious that he wanted to have a fight with the boy in front of him; this was the first time Hapuu had encountered such a situation.

Could it be that my guardian spirit has fallen for that boy?

Hapuu doesn't sound offensive, but that's the feeling it gives.

Unfortunately, neither Ash nor Tapu Fini noticed Happou.

As if by prior arrangement, the two left the ruins on the other side and arrived at the Bonny Canyon on Bonny Island, where many rocks formed a battlefield.

Ash and Tapu Fini stared at each other, while Happu and Hatsumi stared at each other.

"I'm sorry, my boyfriend caused you trouble. He must have just run over to Tapu Fini and started talking about a battle."

Knowing that Ash was a battle enthusiast, Chu Hua clapped her hands and gave a helpless smile.

She already considers me her girlfriend!

Chu Hua: Xiao Xiang...who is that?

Anyway, Xiao Zhi didn't say anything.

Ash: I didn't know... I have no objection!

"It's alright. What I'm more concerned about is why Tapu Fini chose to fight that boy. Did they have some kind of relationship?"

Hapwu shook his head, somewhat puzzled.

Tapu Fini is not as fierce or fond of Pokémon battles as Tapu Koko; it is clearly an exception.

She also wanted to know what had happened between Tapu Fizz and the other person.

On the other hand, Ash's idea was quite simple.

Since the other party has agreed to the fight, I will give it my all to satisfy you.

Tapu Fini, a Water/Fairy type, is probably at or above Champion level!

Ash's advantage is... none!

[Zhibao, this guy really wants to battle you! Waaaaah~ How can I let someone bully my Zhibao~~ Waaaaah~]

[Mission: Defeat Tapu Fini! Reward: ...Here you go! Smart Pikachu Z-Move!]

Suddenly, the little AI felt the Z-Crystal in its palm, and the feel was completely different from before.

No... this isn't Pikachu... and it's definitely not Ash Pikachu.

[It's alright, it's just a form change. You just need to use this Ash-Pikachu Z-Move! I want to see Ash's cool side.]

Form transformations are here?!

Is it legal or not?!

Ash felt his worldview crumbling.

To be honest, as a competitive player, he doesn't like this kind of illegal behavior!

Essentially, they're also focused on power levels!

It's true that 10 million volts is much stronger than Ultimate Volt Thunderbolt, but... my Raichu is a support unit, and I'm all about maximizing power...

I'm all ready, cheek rub + weird radio waves + electric grid + coquettishness + volt replacement.

The world is never that simple, so Ash doesn't really care.

All he knew was that he had only one thought in mind: to defeat Tapu Fini in front of him.

With this thought in mind, Ash took out his Poké Ball and stared intently at Tapu Fini not far away.

“I can feel the fighting spirit Tapu Fizz is brimming with… Aren’t you going to stop him?”

Hapuu's body trembled slightly, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Xiao Zhi will not lose, I believe in him."

Chu Hua viewed all of this with a confident expression.

There's no need for a reason to believe in Xiao Zhi.

If it were her who were to battle, the battle might be much easier. In a 6-on-1 situation, she might be able to win. But this is Ash's battle, and she will do her best to believe in him.

"Boom King Kong, it's you I choose!"

Ash threw a Poké Ball with all his might. It spun rapidly in the air, and in an instant, Raptor appeared on the battlefield.

"Boom!"

The Thunder King Kong watched Tapu Fizz warily.

"Grass slide!"

First, Ash will test Tapu Fini's speed.

These two Pokémon have the same speed in the game, which can be determined by triggering their abilities.

But this is reality, not a game!

In fact, Ash's Raptor's Grassy Terrain is almost turning into a Misty Terrain due to Tapu Fini's ability!

The other party clearly triggered the characteristic first!

If you really play it like a game, his Thunder King Kong would be Tapu Gorilla!

First, launch a surprise attack on the opponent, breaking their belt!

But in this situation, with them in the air, how am I supposed to give them a high five?

In this situation, the grass slide won't work... Jump onto the rocks and get into the air... Use the full force of the wooden mallet to take it down... Or rather, use the drum to slow down the opponent, Tapu Fini's speed shouldn't be that fast.

Xiao Zhi felt a little pressure.

"Hu~~"

But Tapu Fini, its entire body glowing a dazzling pink light, charged towards them from not far away.

It's the same style as Tapu Koko's Close-Range Magic Dazzling!

"Forget it, I'd better not think about it anymore. Thunder King Kong, use the ear-piercing sound!"

Xiao Zhi smiled slightly and waved forward.

It's pointless to overthink things just because your opponent is strong. The most important thing in a battle is to adapt to the situation and have faith in your Pokémon!
