Chapter 745 Scorpion King: Ace Pilot Requests to Deploy!
"Wow, those two are fighting really badly."
Ah Xun sat in the front row of the audience and sighed softly.
Although his match yesterday was intense, it was still a step below those two.
Xiaoyun shrugged, turned to look at the arena, and her eyes became serious: "This is nothing, the main event is yet to come."
He paused, then lowered his voice: "Don't be fooled by Xiao Guang's current lead. Xiao Zhi's greatest strength is his ability to accumulate strength and unleash it later. He may not show any signs of progress in the early stages, but he can suddenly deliver a powerful blow later on, just like someone who has been constipated for three days and then suddenly has a bowel movement."
Ah Xun's lips twitched: "Could you use a more elegant analogy?"
"To put it more elegantly, it means to remain silent until you make a stunning statement," Xiaoyun said, shrugging.
Putting everything else aside, at least one of Greninja and Charizard needs to be included.
These two are both incredibly difficult to defeat.
Xiao Wang nodded seriously.
“I know Dawn’s strength very well. Ash… he always manages to unleash his full potential in desperate situations. I witnessed that during the Sinnoh League.”
The battle continued, their eyes met, their fighting spirit clashed, and they continued to send out Pokémon.
boom!boom!
Two red lights flashed by.
Ash's side, the black Gliscor landed!
"Gray!"
As soon as the Scorpion King appeared, it spread its wings and circled in the air, its signature pincers clicking, and its intelligent eyes were full of wisdom.
On Xiao Guang's side, another Flying-type Pokémon also appeared!
It has a dragonfly-like body, is green overall, and looks very docile.
Desert dragonfly!
Two Pokémon confront each other in the air.
They are very similar, both being terrestrial, yet both can fly.
"Gliscor, use Stone Edge!" Ash launched the first attack.
"Gray!"
With a flick of its pincers, the Scorpion King conjured several sharp stones that shot towards the Desert Dragonfly like cannonballs!
"Desert Dragonfly, Dragon Pulse!"
"Dragonfly!" The desert dragonfly opened its mouth, gathering purple dragon-type energy, which shot out as a beam of light! The beam collided with the sharp rocks in mid-air!
Boom!
The stone pillar collided with the dragon, creating an explosion that filled the air with smoke, resembling a fireworks display.
But the next second, Scorpion King burst out of the smoke!
Its pincers cross in a triangular formation, with insect-type energy condensing on the edges of its pincers.
Cross shears!
All that could be seen was a cross-shaped afterimage, heading straight for the desert dragonfly's vitals!
The desert dragonfly's right claw glowed with a blue light, and dragon-type energy transformed into a semi-transparent giant claw, clashing head-on with the cross-shaped shears!
Dragon Claw!
boom!
The shockwave exploded, and both sides took a step back.
Claws and pincers collided, sparks flying! The two Pokémon were locked in a stalemate in mid-air.
"The other one also uses dragon claws!" Xiao Guang suddenly shouted.
The desert dragonfly also raised its left claw, which also condensed into a dragon claw, and grabbed towards the Scorpion King's abdomen!
The Scorpion King opened its mouthparts, flames blazing on its teeth, and bit at the Desert Dragonfly!
Boom!
The pincers and teeth collided, and the energy exploded once more! Both Pokémon were sent flying backward, creating distance between them.
Ash's eyes sharpened; he knew his Gliscor couldn't outlast Flygon in a stamina contest, so he had to finish the fight quickly.
"Scorpion King! Use Ultimate Impact!"
"Gray!"
The Scorpion King roared to the sky, its entire body erupting with dazzling white energy! The energy swirled like a vortex, enveloping it and forming a giant energy spiral!
Normal-type ultimate move, Final Impact!
The Scorpion King transformed into a white spiral, moving at the speed of a missile, causing the air to emit a piercing whistle.
Xiao Guang quickly gave the order: "Desert Dragonfly, Sonic Blast!"
"dragonfly!"
The desert dragonfly flapped its wings so fast that it left afterimages, and then...
boom!!!
A beam of sound waves burst forth from between its wings! The sound waves were visible to the naked eye, spreading out like waves, colliding with the Scorpion King's ultimate impact!
Sizzle sizzle—!!!
The sound wave tried to block it, but the power of the ultimate impact was too strong, overwhelming the sonic boom and continuing to rush towards the desert dragonfly!
"Gray-ya—!!!"
Scorpion King roared, and its spiral energy slammed into the Desert Dragonfly!
"dragonfly--!!!"
The desert dragonfly was knocked backward and flew through the air, tumbling several times before barely managing to regain its balance; it was clearly seriously injured.
Xiao Guang's eyes lit up—an opportunity!
After using Giga Impact, the Pokémon will be unable to move for a period of time! This is the perfect opportunity to counterattack!
Kill it while it's sick!
"Desert Dragonfly, hold on! Keep using Sonic Blast on Scorpion King!"
Upon receiving the order, the desert dragonfly endured the pain, flapped its wings, and prepared to release the sonic boom once again.
But just as the sound wave was about to be emitted, they discovered that Scorpio King was no longer in the same place.
Unlike ordinary Pokémon that freeze in place, Gliscor began to spin rapidly after the impact.
It tumbled in the air like a spinning top, and by doing so, it dissipated the reaction force and quickly created distance!
By the time the Desert Dragonfly was ready to unleash its sonic boom, the Scorpion King had already rolled dozens of meters away!
In the audience, Ah Xun's mouth dropped open, his jaw almost falling to the ground: "Aren't you supposed to be unable to move after the Ultimate Impact? What kind of operation is this?"
Xiaoyun also raised an eyebrow, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes:
"This is...using rotational force deflection? That's impressive."
Just like a gymnast rolls to dissipate force upon landing, it transforms the impact into rotational force while also creating distance to avoid risks.
On the field, Scorpio King had already created a safe distance and struck a cool pose in the air.
Ace pilot! Requesting deployment!
"You can do that?" Xiao Guang's eyes widened in astonishment.
She realized that Scorpio King was using a roll to dissipate the force and create distance to avoid the side effects of the final impact!
That's a skillful maneuver!
Xiao Zhi explained smugly:
"This is the result of Gliscor's training with Master Kūzō in Sinnoh! Master Kūzō is an aerial combat expert who taught Gliscor how to maintain maneuverability in various situations!"
Xiao Guang bit her lip; she hadn't expected Xiao Zhi to have this trick up his sleeve.
But she wasn't one to give up easily: "Then let's try this move, Desert Dragonfly! Dragon Star Swarm!"
Dragon Star Cluster, a dragon-type ultimate move, an area-of-effect attack—now let's see how you dodge it!
"dragonfly!"
The desert dragonfly tilted its head back, gathering dazzling dragon-type energy in its mouth. The energy grew stronger and stronger until it finally transformed into a ball of light and shot into the sky!
Boom!
The ball of light exploded in the air, turning into countless fiery meteors that fell like raindrops!
The area covered the entire arena, so densely packed that there was absolutely no room to dodge!
The audience gasped in shock. How could they possibly dodge that?
But Ash's expression remained calm:
"Scorpio King, sense the wind direction! Get out of the way!"
"Gray!"
Scorpio King closed his eyes and sensed the changes in the airflow.
Master Kongzang once said that Flying-type Pokémon should trust their senses, feel the wind, feel the air currents, and the wind will tell you everything.
It sensed it!
Scorpio King suddenly opened his eyes, his body moving with the air currents as he weaved through the dense meteor shower!
Up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, B, A!
Dodge to the left, dodge to the right, dive, spin, roll...
The Dragon Star Cluster is like a torrential rain, and the Scorpion King is like a swallow in the rain, passing through a sea of flowers without a single petal touching it.
Its smoothness is in no way inferior to any pure Flying-type Pokémon, and may even be better.
Citron was stunned:
"Ash actually has such flying skills..."
He had been shocked countless times since the conference began.
Xiao Zhi always manages to come up with something new, always refreshing his understanding, and always making him feel...
Who knew Pokémon battles could be like this!
Sure enough, the trips to several regions were well worth it; these amazing moves are something most people would never think of.
The desert dragonfly was dumbfounded, its eyes wide like copper bells, almost shooting out lightning-like shrewdness.
Its Dragon Star Cluster didn't hit the target at all?
That's a cluster of dragon stars! It covers the entire area! How could you possibly hide from that?
Isn't this bullying honest people?!
Desert Dragonfly's inner monologue: Coach, I'm reporting someone! Scorpion is cheating!
At this moment, the Scorpion King had already used the meteor shower as cover and the air currents to get behind the Desert Dragonfly.
A glint of light flashed in Xiao Zhi's eyes:
"Now! Use the cross-cutting shears!"
"Gray!"
Scorpion King crossed its pincers, unleashed its Bug-type energy, transforming into a giant cross silhouette, and slashed down fiercely at Flygon's back!
The desert dragonfly sensed danger and tried to turn around, but it was too late.
Cross-cutting shears! Zero distance!
Click—!!!
"dragonfly--!"
The desert dragonfly was struck squarely in the back by the attack, let out a pained cry, and plummeted from the sky.
The referee stepped forward to examine the dragonfly, raised his flag, and announced: "Desert Dragonfly is unable to fight! Scorpion King wins!"
