Pokémon: System Start.

The battle between Ash and Marie, the collision of the exclusive skills of both sides' Pokémon, Gigantamax Melmetal and Gigantamax Shaggy, Mega Liquid Strike and Mega Sandman's Advent, caused an earth-shaking explosion!

The horrific aftermath not only swept across the entire arena, forcing Melmetal and the Hairy Troll to retreat again and again, and even finally fell on the edge of the battlefield!

"Merumeta (long-haired troll), are you okay?"

Xiaozhi and Marie looked at their own Pokémon at the same time and asked with concern.

"Meta!"

Melmetal shook his head and stood up quickly. Although the aftermath just now was horrible and left him a little injured, it was nothing for him with thick skin and flesh. After all, as a legendary mythical beast, his physical strength and recovery ability were not something that ordinary elves could match!

The hairy troll on the opposite side was not in a very good condition. Among the two exploding energies just now, there was no energy that could restrain Melmetal, but there was energy that could restrain him. What's more, Melmetal was stronger than him. This level of suppression plus the outstanding damage directly injured him seriously. At the same time, his body was covered with a lot of metallic liquid metal, which made it very inconvenient for him to move.

“Long hair!!”

However, the hairy troll quickly stood up again, let out an earth-shaking roar, and kept beating his chest with his arms, as if responding to Mary that he could continue to fight.

Even though he was seriously injured, even though he was a demon, he still had a princess he wanted to protect, and he was determined to fight to the end for his trainer.

"Very good, long-haired troll, here comes another super giant sleeper!"

Upon seeing this, Mary understood the long-haired troll's intention and nodded heavily. Her delicate voice was filled with a strong fighting spirit as she responded to the long-haired troll!

"Then we will also use the Super Liquid Gold Strike once again!"

Xiaozhi felt the fighting spirit of Marie and the hairy troll, and suddenly felt his blood boiling, and shouted excitedly.

"Meta!!"

Melmetal was also ignited by Xiaozhi's influence, and once again mobilized the huge amount of steel energy as before. Suddenly, countless spikes that looked like solid and liquid metal rose from the ground and began to spread in the direction of the hairy troll!

However, the long-haired troll was unable to mobilize the evil energy like before and use his exclusive skill, Super Giant Sleeper Coming!

No matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't use any moves!

In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the spikes on the ground spread around him, and then suddenly exploded, turning into two huge spikes that stabbed directly into his body!

The surging steel energy then exploded. There was no expression of disbelief on his face. While others were full of question marks and had blurred vision, he was engulfed by the light of the metallic energy explosion!

When the dazzling light faded, the hairy troll's eyes became lifeless, and the gigantic particles on its body continued to pour out rapidly, floating into the air, and then in the sight of everyone, it slowly returned to its original state and fell to the ground.

Even though he had lost his ability to fight, his face still retained an expression of disbelief!

Even Marie, the Shouting Team, and the audience, including Satoshi's friends like Serena, Shigeki and others, were all confused and didn't understand what was going on.

How come the hairy troll can't use its skills? And looking at the opponent's behavior just now, it doesn't look like he was acting, but he really can't use his skills.

"Oh no! I seem to have forgotten to remind Marie that Melmetal's exclusive Dynamax move has the side effect of preventing the elves from using the same skill consecutively."

Seeing this, Xiaozhi scratched his face in embarrassment. Just now, he was influenced by the fighting spirit of Marie and the Longhaired Troll and completely forgot to remind the opponent.

Although in theory you shouldn't tell your opponent your intelligence during a game, it doesn't have to be like that. If you want, it's fine to tell the opponent, as long as you can afford the cost of losing the game if the information is leaked.

However, from Xiaozhi's point of view, he might be more dissatisfied than losing the current situation, because in his expectation, there should have been a fierce battle of moves, and then both Pokémon would exit Gigantamax and start a wonderful battle again in their original form.

Instead of being like now, where everyone is confused and doesn’t understand what’s going on?

"The hairy troll is incapable of fighting! So the winner of this World Championship Qualifying Match is the Alola League Champion, Satoshi!"

Referee Rotom doesn't care about any of that. He follows the referee's rules and pronounces the current result of the game impartially!

But this caused dissatisfaction among the Shouting Team!

"No, how come it ended like this?! I still haven't figured out why the hairy troll couldn't use its skills just now."

"That's what I mean! What's going on? Is the guy on the other side called Xiaozhi cheating?"

"I feel like we should conduct a thorough investigation! The spear troll was fine just now, how come he can't use his skills all of a sudden? He must have done something!"

"I'm not saying enough is enough. The design has not been finalized yet. Don't slander others casually!"

Mary had a bad feeling as she listened to the increasingly outrageous speeches around her, and quickly shouted to stop the cheering team from continuing.

She knew the members of the Shouting Team very well, and knew that because she lost the game in such an unclear manner, they felt unfair for her in their hearts and even lost the ability to think independently. After someone casually mentioned it, they directly told Xiaozhi the reason why the Hairy Troll couldn't use its skills, thinking that he cheated and used some unknown means to prevent the Hairy Troll from using its skills.

However, this kind of behavior is equivalent to directly slandering and identifying a person as a murderer without any confirmation or even evidence.

Moreover, the person who was slandered was the champion of the Alola League. If this situation continued to develop, it would really become a diplomatic incident.

However, it was a little too late for Mary to stop it. Those who were familiar with Satoshi's character and the Alola region had already been detonated by then.

"What nonsense are you all talking about! Satoshi isn't the type to cheat!"

"That's right! Satoshi wouldn't do anything like that!"

"I'm telling you, I've been putting up with you for a long time! I didn't want to say anything to you before, but now you dare to accuse our champion of cheating! It's true, we have no one left in Alola!"

"..."

Let's not talk about those who are familiar with Xiaozhi and know his character. Let's just talk about the people in the Alola region. Insulting the champion of the Alola region in front of them and cheating in the game is equivalent to slapping them in the face of the Alola region.

For those who attach great importance to the collective honor and reputation of the Alola region, no matter how good-tempered they are, they can't help but feel angry!

In their opinion, they really gave face to these cheering teams. They didn't take their championship seriously before, but this is also their championship. It would be fine if they didn't care about them, but now they dared to slander them, saying that the championship won the game by cheating. They couldn't bear it and they burst into swearing instantly.

Xiaozhi looked at the situation around him that was gradually getting out of control, frowned immediately, and used the power of creation to make his voice full of strong penetrating power.

"Everyone calm down! Listen to me, the reason why the hairy troll couldn't use its moves just now was because of Melmetal..."
