Pokémon the Movie: The Journey of a Slate

“Regarding the significance of the battle, it seems like he needs to figure it out himself, right?” Xiao Guang popped his head up and everyone fell silent. It seemed like they really couldn’t help.

When Xiaozhi learned that he could not help Orion, he felt a little disappointed, but then he cheered up and said: "Then Eslo, why don't you have a Pokémon battle with me now that you are free!" He challenged Eslo, which is a traditional custom among trainers.

Aislo nodded. He had no reason to refuse.

Xiao Gang walked between the two and said, "In that case, I will be the referee. Each side can send out three elves. The condition for victory is that all three elves of the opponent lose their combat capability."

The two nodded and stepped back to make room for the elves to fight.

"The game begins!" Xiaogang swung his right arm down.

"Come on, Pikachu!" The Pikachu on Xiaozhi's shoulder jumped into the field.

"Pikachu?" Eslo's strength has greatly improved compared to before. He can already conclude that this Pikachu has probably reached the champion level, but what he has never been able to understand is why a Pikachu is so good at hiding or acting.

Facing a champion-level elf, Eslok did not dare to be careless. He chose to send out his strongest force except Yveltal and Lignum, Zoroark, who was already very close to the championship.

A red light flashed, and a "rogue crocodile" appeared on the field, and Zoroya jumped out of the ball and crawled into Aislo's arms. He wanted to cheer for his Ma.

"Pikachu, use Iron Tail!" Xiaozhi did not see through Zoroark's illusion.

Pikachu rushed towards "Crocodile", with a silver light flashing on his tail.

"Rogue Crocodile, dig a hole!"

"Pikachu, shadow clone!"

As Crocodile burrowed into the ground, Pikachu moved quickly and a clone appeared beside it. At this time, Crocodile broke out of the ground, but unfortunately it did not hit Pikachu itself.

"Now, Pikachu, trap him with the electric net!"

Xiao Guang was slightly stunned. "Electric-type moves are ineffective against ground-type moves, right?"

"That's true, but Xiaozhi's goal is only to restrict Crocodile's actions." Marie explained at this time.

"Spray flames to break up the electric grid, rush over and use dark blast!"

"What?" x4

Obviously, no one thought that Rogue Crocodile was Zoroark's phantom.

"Pika!" Pikachu was knocked away, but the electric discharge he used subconsciously still caused considerable damage to Zoroark.

"Pikachu, how are you?" Xiaozhi asked quickly.

"Pika Pika!" Pikachu stood up and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

"Okay then, Zoroark? Pikachu, use 100,000 volts!" Xiaozhi tried to rush forward as usual.

Asilo was just about to replace Zoroark with Crocodile to take the attack, but he saw Zoroark rushing forward to block the attack with Dark Night Blast and shook his head at him.

Aislo suddenly realized something, "Zoroark continues to fight, moving close to Pikachu at high speed while using Trick, then use Dark Blast!"

Zoroark rushed towards Pikachu, "Soya--" he roared, and a black shock wave was released from his body that swept towards Pikachu.

"Pikachu, use one hundred thousand volts!"

"Boom--" an explosion was heard, Pikachu was knocked away with a scream, and Zoroark knelt on one knee on the ground, with black marks on his body, but he still had a smile on his face. He was already close to the championship, and after witnessing that super ancient elf battle, he had gained a lot of insights, and now he had to withstand Pikachu's relentless attack, and the talent that even Red and Green were amazed at came into play at this time.

"Champion level!" Xiao Gang gasped. How could he, who had met Chi Hong before, not be able to tell the difference between the aura of a champion level and an ordinary elf?

Mary was looking at the Pikachu that was held by Xiaozhi, and she felt that there was something strange about that Pikachu.

"You did a great job, Pikachu!" Xiaozhi comforted softly.

"Pika..." Pikachu called out "weakly". Eslo didn't say anything, just quietly watching Pikachu's performance. How could Pikachu, who had already entered the champion level, be defeated by a Pokémon who had just entered the champion level? Even in Eslo's perception, Zoroark's breakthrough just now seemed to be guided by Pikachu.

"Go, Infernape!" Ash released his second Pokémon.

"Come back, Ma, come on, rogue crocodile!"

Two elves of similar levels confronted each other, and neither side had an advantage in terms of attributes.

"Rogue crocodile, earthquake!"

"Flame Monkey, jump up and shoot back with fire."

"Dig a hole, get out of the way!"

The rogue crocodile quickly burrowed into the ground, avoiding the jets of flame that fell from the sky.

Infernape fell from the sky, and at this moment, Rogue Crocodile emerged from the ground.

"Now! Infernape, hold him! Close combat!" Xiaozhi shouted.

"The distance is too close... Rogue Crocodile, use the power of the earth to bite it all at once!"

The two Pokémon collided fiercely, and a yellowish-brown light flashed under Infernape's feet. Then the two Pokémon retreated at the same time, and Crocodile fell to the ground, losing its ability to fight.

At this time, Infernape knelt on one knee. He looked back at Xiaozhi, and then the flame on his head continued to grow, and then erupted like a volcano.

"Is this a raging fire?" Such questions popped up in Eslo and Mary's minds.

"Come back, Crocodile, you've done a great job. Go, Umbreon!"

The elegant and handsome Moon Eevee appeared on the field. She looked at the monkey in front of her who had injured her younger brother, and a hint of anger appeared in her eyes. No one had dared to beat her younger brother like this.

"Infernape, rush over and use Sonic Fist!"

"Umbreon, run out of the way, use High Speed ​​Star."

The star-shaped light hit Inflammak, which was already at the end of its strength, and Inflammak lost its ability to fight.

Xiaozhi took back Infernape, and his next Pokémon was Scorpio. The battle ended quickly. Umbreon used a Return of Favor that shocked Xiaogang and the others and killed the unsuspecting Scorpio in an instant.

Xiaozhi scratched his head and said with a smile: "Aislo is really amazing!"

Eslo smiled and said, "Your elf is also very strong." At the same time, a touch of joy appeared in his heart. Eslo was a little puzzled, "The joy of victory..." He guessed that this feeling was not bad.

"So, why would Moon Eevee repay the favor?" Xiaogang felt a little confused.

"Maybe this is the bond between Pokémon and their trainer..." Xiaoguang was a little unsure.

Mary was slightly stunned. Morube Koko on her shoulder didn't care about anything else and threw herself directly into Eslo's arms, pushing Zoroya aside, "Morube Morube!" She sniffed the reassuring scent and slowly turned over. She had wanted to do this for a long time.

"You guy!" Zoroark fell to the ground and stared fiercely at the guy who had taken his place, "You...you bad guy, do you want to fight?" The little fox flipped through his poor vocabulary and finally found the most offensive word.

"Mobe Mobe~" Mary's Morubeko didn't pay attention to the little fox's shouting. She even greeted Morubeko standing on Eslo's shoulder, "Mobe!" another little mouse responded.

Being ignored, Soraya's eyes burned with anger, and he was about to pounce. Finally, under the persuasion of Mary and Eslo, the fox and the rat reconciled. Eslo and Mary looked at each other, feeling a little amused.

Brock and Dawn stood aside and watched the scene with smiles on their faces, while Ash scratched his head. He couldn't understand why Brock and Dawn were laughing so strangely, but he didn't ask. He was not stupid and didn't want to get beaten again. The Pikachu on his shoulder sighed helplessly, lamenting that his own Ash's emotional intelligence was really worrying.
