Chapter 1198 Finals Ⅹ: Ties (2 in 1)
Daigo remembered it clearly.
That kind of power that seemed to be the origin of all sea water completely suppressed other energies, as if creating a domain that belonged exclusively to the other party.
Abundant water-attribute energy fills this area, obeying the orders of the Creator of the Sea and repelling all fire-attribute energy, being extremely overbearing.
How could this Milotic release the Sea of Origin?
Moreover, Daigo always felt that the "Sea of Origin" before him seemed to be different from the Sea of Origin he knew.
On the battlefield.
Milotic successfully bound the power of the Pseudo-Sea of Origin in the sky above the battlefield.
Even if it were the original Kyogre, it wouldn't be able to do this.
The reason is simple, it's just that Primal Kyogre's power is too great, it can easily change the weather of the entire area, and it would be too difficult for Fathead to compress its power into this remote corner.
Not to mention the problem of whether the energy would explode out of control when compressed to this point.
Su Hao knew that the reason why Milotic was able to have such fine control ability was closely related to the fragments of the Water Drop Slate.
Latias, Latios's Infinite Source enhancement allowed Milotic to complete the transition of life levels while maintaining its appearance.
The fragments of the water-drop slate purified the water energy in its body, bringing it closer to its origin, and even allowing it to comprehend Kyogre's two unique skills.
Abilities are more valuable when they are of high quality rather than in quantity, and this is exactly what Mienshao is talking about.
In the pouring rain, Mienshao, shrouded in mist, gathered all the rain water and compressed it in front of countless people's horrified expressions, as if it were turned into armor, constantly taking shape.
In just a moment, the Water World Python, which was almost the size of a Gigantamax Pokémon with Milotic as its core, raised its head and let out a thunderous roar. Its eyes, which did not have any intelligence, stared at Satoshi and Greninja who were on high alert below.
Milotic did not force this unprecedented order, and the water-attribute energy condensed in the Palace Gate Arena moved away from Greninja.
It generously shared the bonus of the Pseudo Sea of Origin with Greninja, as if it was giving Greninja a test.
Greninja could also sense that the concentration of water-attribute energy around it had risen to an unprecedented level, and the huge shuriken on its back had grown several times larger, almost as big as the giant shuriken it had condensed through its shadow clone when it fought against the Super Lizard King in the semi-finals of the Kalos League.
If an ordinary fire-attribute Pokémon stayed in this area, it would probably not be able to collect even a bit of fire-attribute energy.
It stared at Milotic with full vigilance. If it guessed correctly, that move was coming...
"Mienshao, Pseudo-Origin Fluctuation!"
Su Hao gave the order forcefully.
Next to the giant python of the mortal world constructed by Milotic, water vapor began to condense, rapidly compressed to the extreme, and transformed into a bluish-white ball of light.
next second.
The ball of light burst out with brilliant light, and eight beams of light poured out, with a sharp whistling sound that made the eardrums uncomfortable, and instantly bombarded Greninja.
Xiaozhi quickly shouted, "Get out, Greninja!"
Amidst the exclamations, Greninja's eyes flashed, and without hesitation, it lowered its center of gravity, instantly accelerated, and shot out like an arrow.
Based on its previous experience fighting against Milotic, although the firing rate and power of these light beams have been greatly improved, it still takes a certain amount of time to condense.
With the help of Xiaozhi's vision, his current speed is enough to dodge!
I just don’t know if that huge snake made of water has any other abilities.
Amid the shocked expressions of countless spectators, eight beams of light instantly landed on the field, causing a horrific explosion that completely engulfed Greninja.
Compared to Leafeon's stunning sword of creation, Milotic's attack is more plain and simple, but it has overwhelming visual effects and oppression.
Many people are worried about the condition of Greninja.
Can it really escape from that intensive beam bombardment?
The answer is, yes.
Someone with sharp eyes pointed to one side and shouted, "Look over there!"
Greninja appeared out of nowhere, completely ignoring the roar and explosion behind it, and rushed so fast that it almost left an afterimage, heading straight for the Earthly Python that Milotic had transformed into!
Seeing that Greninja had escaped from the crisis, the audience felt sorry for it again.
That Milotic must have spent a lot of effort and energy to gather such a powerful attack.
It was actually dodged by Greninja, what a huge loss!
Before everyone could sigh, what happened in the next second almost made their eyes fall out!
After a round of salvos failed, Milotic showed no intention of stopping. It directly recharged the slightly dim light ball with energy. Not long after, it launched a second round of attacks.
Fortunately, Greninja had already raised its vigilance, accelerated again, and avoided this round of volleys.
In response, Mienshao's expression remained unchanged.
After all, it is a pseudo-root fluctuation, and huge energy also requires time compression.
When you meet an opponent with maxed-out agility like Greninja, it's easy to resort to outlining shooting, which is unavoidable.
It's just a beautiful Milotic, not a sharpshooter.
Besides, when it defeated the normal Greninja before, it didn’t rely on accuracy, but on exchanging injuries for injuries and firepower suppression!
It is normal that the bond-evolved Greninja can now dodge the salvo of Pseudo-Root Wave.
Milotic also carried out the second round of upgrades early on. Wasn’t it just for this moment that it constructed the Water World Python?
The third round, the fourth round, the fifth round... Under the desperate expressions of many trainers, Milotic's energy was squandered as if it were free, to the extent that an ordinary Pokémon would definitely be drained.
However, all of this was narrowly avoided by Greninja with skills comparable to those of a ninja.
Greninja felt that he had gradually mastered the trick and was able to predict the landing points of those beams in advance.
If this continues, there's a chance!
Looking at the huge water snake body that was not far away from him, Greninja decided to rush forward in one breath, and then rely on his experience of fighting against the huge tree roots that were all over Kalos for so long to attack the body of Milotic in one breath!
Greninja is just about to make its final sprint.
but.
In its peripheral vision, the dazzling light almost covered the entire field of vision!
Through Xiaozhi's vision, it subconsciously counted.
1...2......8...9......16！？
Why are there sixteen light balls?
Greninja's pupils shrank, and it subconsciously picked up the huge water shuriken on its back and threw it into the sky, while constantly moving, searching for a gap to avoid this round of volleys.
Can--
This doubled beam of light was able to perfectly fill all the previous gaps. Even though the huge flying water shuriken offset most of the power, and it relied on its own agility to dodge the remaining half of the beam of light, there were still two or three beams of light that fell on Greninja who had no way to avoid it, causing a violent explosion and directly blew it away.
Fortunately, Greninja was lucky and the explosion shortened the last bit of distance.
"Cool..."
The Greninja that was blown away groaned, swallowed the fishy and sweet taste in its throat, and endured the stinging pain on its body together with Xiaozhi. It looked at the body of the Midgard Python that was already close at hand, with determination flashing in its eyes and forming seals with its hands.
"Maximum power, blizzard!"
Xiaozhi did the same thing and shouted loudly.
In an instant.
A terrifying torrent of ice roared out and began to freeze the body of the Earthly Python from bottom to top.
The bad thing about a body made of water is that it can be easily frozen.
Water and ice are inseparable, and the environment of the Pseudo-Sea of Origin actually added fuel to Greninja's blizzard.
After completing the release of sixteen pseudo-root waves, Milotic didn't care whether the Water World Python was frozen.
It autonomously dispersed other unfrozen water flows, completed the release of the Eternal Dragon Dance in mid-air, and instantly dropped from the sky, dragging its tail that was entangled with the water flow, and lashed at Greninja who was releasing the blizzard like a whip.
"Koga Ninja!"
Xiaozhi noticed this and felt something was wrong, so he quickly warned Greninja loudly.
Greninja, who shared senses with him, naturally had the same reaction. It stopped releasing the blizzard and hastily pulled out the huge flying water shuriken that was being reloaded from its back, blocking the tail of the water stream at the critical moment.
Water splashed everywhere, but Greninja didn't relax at all.
It knows that the next one is coming!
Without giving Greninja any chance to breathe, eight balls of light condensed behind Milotic and shot out at the same time!
Greninja quickly used the Stand he learned while chopping trees, and once again dodged the volley of attacks from Milotic. He then drew out a huge flying water shuriken and smashed it hard at Milotic's snake body!
Moreover, the position is also found at the seven-inch point1
The water light exploded again, and Milotic groaned after being hit, and suddenly felt a piercing pain.
"The voice of seduction!"
The high-pitched voice of Milotic turned into energy sound waves visible to the naked eye, mixed with many notes transformed from fairy energy, and directly hit Greninja's chest before it had time to dodge, with an outstanding effect!
The sword mark on Greninja's chest left by Leafeon cracked again, and its breath became weaker.
Taking a few steps back, Greninja looked solemnly at the water ring that was constantly oozing out water vapor, repairing the wounds and surrounding Milotic.
It knew that if the tug-of-war continued for a long time, it would definitely be at a disadvantage without any means of recovery.
Must try once!
Only by severely damaging Mienshao first can there be a glimmer of hope.
Greninja's resolute mood was conveyed to Xiaozhi, and he understood that Greninja wanted to use that move.
He was just about to mobilize his emotions and speak, but he found that Su Hao over there suddenly raised his hand, and a red light pierced through the rain curtain and fell on Mienshao.
Xiaozhi: “!!!”
Su Hao revealed the Dynamax Band hidden under his sleeve. When he saw the Dynamax Band burst into rainbow light and made the Poké Ball expand, he smiled slightly.
“This is the first time it’s used in an official competition.”
"Mienshao, Gigantamax!"
Amidst exclamations, Su Hao threw the Gigantamax Poké Ball in his hand. In an instant, dark red clouds covered the sky again. It was no longer the Water World Python that served as a mecha. As time and space began to distort, the figure of Milotic that suddenly expanded dozens of times descended upon the Palace Gate Arena!
"Ultra-large current—"
If he let it go, that would be the determination that had trampled on Xiaozhi until now, so Su Hao launched a fierce attack directly.
The water vapor in the sky stopped in mid-air at this moment, like a river flowing back, and all gathered beside Milotic.
The water vapor turned into three huge light balls arranged in a triangle and aimed at Greninja!
An unprecedented sense of crisis came over him. Xiaozhi's pupils widened, his emotions were completely aroused, and he shouted without hesitation: "Greninja!"
His heart was beating wildly at an unprecedented speed, and Greninja felt that his whole body, including his palms holding the huge flying water shuriken, began to heat up.
The red pattern on Greninja's head was so bright that it was burning, and the huge flying water shuriken in its hand was gradually dyed golden.
"Cool!"
Greninja roared and raised the huge flying water shuriken above its head. A water tornado shot up into the sky. In the blink of an eye, a huge golden flying water shuriken was suspended above Greninja's head, emitting terrifying energy that caused the surrounding space to fluctuate.
On the side of the Maximus, the Maximus water flow that was sublimated from the Pseudo-Root Wave and contaminated with the Maximus energy and constructed by the forced restraint of the Maximus also completed its accumulation and compression, and turned into three incomparably thick light beams in the form of Pseudo-Root Wave, pouring out!
At the same time, a huge golden flying water shuriken that condensed its and Xiaozhi's beliefs flew out of Greninja's head and spun at high speed. The sharp edge composed of energy alone was enough to cut through the rain curtain and collide with the giant water flow!
Om-!
A huge buzzing sound continued to sound from the intersection of the two sides' moves. As a move that defeated Mega Gardevoir, it was also blessed by the Pseudo-Sea of Origin. At this time, the huge golden flying water shuriken was unstoppable. For a moment, it was able to fight on equal terms with Milotic's Max Water Stream, which did not hold back at all.
But soon, compared to Milotic, who controlled this area and continuously injected energy into the giant water flow, Greninja's slightly inferior energy reserve disadvantage was infinitely magnified at this moment.
The other three triangular light balls that Milotic took the time to condense again became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The second extremely large water flow was released, and the huge golden flying water shuriken was directly pierced through, turning into countless rays of light and exploding.
Greninja, which was no longer able to dodge, was completely overwhelmed by this absolute firepower.
......
A few minutes later.
In the battle field.
Heavy rain washed over the ground and the arena was silent.
In that deep pit, Greninja, who had interrupted the bond transformation one step ahead to avoid affecting Xiaozhi's next battle, lay inside with its eyes rolling in circles.
"Greninja has lost its ability to fight, Milotic wins! Please send out the next Pokémon, Ash!"
The referee raised the flag mercilessly and read out the result.
The host's heavy voice sounded: "Under the violent firepower of Maximus, Greninja unfortunately lost its ability to fight!"
"So far, Xiaozhi has lost four Pokémon, and all of Su Hao's Pokémon are still alive. Only Jade Warrior Eagle and Blazing Roaring Tiger are seriously injured."
"Player Xiaozhi, can you break this hopeless situation--"
At this time, the aerial Rotom prepared by the Galar Alliance flew around, projecting the expressions and movements of both sides onto the big screen through the rain.
As for Satoshi, thanks to Greninja's excellent judgment, he was able to maintain his original strength and consciousness.
He raised his hand, took back Greninja, and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work, Greninja."
After handing the Poké Ball to Miss Joy, Xiaozhi did not send out his Pokémon immediately.
He looked at the Gigantamax that was still standing there with no intention of leaving, and became unusually conflicted.
He looked at the only red and white Poké Ball left in his hand, and then looked at the concentrating Pikachu beside him, and the answer actually emerged.
In this kind of weather, even if he had the physical strength to support another Mega Evolution, the compatibility between Charizard and Maximus was still very poor.
This is the only way to go.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xiaozhi took a deep breath, turned the brim of his hat to the back of his head, and shouted:
"Pikachu, it's decided to be you!!"

This chapter is two-in-one, and it’s gone tonight.
