Chapter 188 The Wicked Girl Pear Blossom
Back at the temple, because Grandma Kikuko had to rush back to Kanto the next day at noon to deal with urgent matters of the alliance.
So Ash made a promise with her to have a one-on-one Pokémon battle the next morning.
He has already chosen the Pokémon he will use.
"Gengar, you'll be in charge of fighting Agatha Christie's Pokémon tomorrow."
"Do you have confidence?"
"Goblin!"
At this moment, Pikachu on Ash's shoulder was a little disappointed, as it thought it would be its turn to fight.
Ash could only helplessly rub its little head.
"Sorry, Pikachu, but for this battle against Ms. Agatha, I want to test the results of Gengar's training over this period of time."
"I'll let you play again next time."
I've been training with Gengar for the past few days and have been neglecting Pikachu a bit.
"Pikachu".
However, Pikachu is very reasonable and didn't throw a tantrum.
"But is it really okay for Ash to send Gengar into battle? Although it has received special training, it has only been a week."
Misty wasn't too optimistic about Ash's decision to send Gengar to battle against Elite Four member Agatha.
"Ms. Kikuko isn't one to hold back, so it's safer to let Pikachu battle her."
"No, Misty, I believe in Gengar."
Ash's Gengar actually has a very good foundation and quite strong talent; it turns out the trainer was mediocre and couldn't train it well.
But ever since it joined Ash's team, it has improved by leaps and bounds! "And we have a secret weapon!"
"A secret weapon?"
Ash took out the Gengar Mega Evolution Stone he had just obtained from his pocket and put it into a bracelet for Gengar to wear.
"Is this Gengar's Mega Stone?"
"Those stones are extremely rare."
She had mentioned the Mega Stone to Sakura after seeing Ash take it out and use it.
Although her older sister later got her a set, it cost a lot of money, and it was a Gyarados evolution stone.
Xiaoxia is terrified of Gyarados.
Only after actually collecting them did I realize that not only are Mega Stones hard to find, but not every Pokémon can Mega Evolve.
Obtaining a Mega Stone for your Pokémon is extremely difficult and cannot be achieved simply by having money.
Seeing Ash pull out a new Gengar Mega Evolution Stone from some unknown four-dimensional pouch, Misty couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"Ash, where did you get so many different kinds of Mega Stones?"
"Even Professor Oak wouldn't give you this much, would he?"
"That's actually the legendary Arceus A-Meng—"
"Alright, stop talking." Xiaoxia immediately interrupted, and seeing that Xiaozhi was being silly again, she understood that he had a difficult reason to talk about.
But Ash also has something to say: in the Pokémon world, anything that's not right can definitely be thrown at Arceus.
How can you say he's lying?
Without wasting any more time, Ash immediately dragged Gengar to the open space next to the shrine to try out its Mega Evolution.
Mega Evolution requires a strong bond between the trainer and the Pokémon to succeed, and Ash and Gengar's Senses are already maxed out, so their bond has long been sufficient.
He raised the Key Stone on his wrist and began to resonate with Gengar's Mega Stone, and Gengar's entire body immediately emitted an evolutionary glow.
A moment later, the light faded, and Gengar's originally chubby body became even sharper, with spikes appearing on its hands, feet, and tail.
The lower half of its body is purplish-red, and a yellow gold coin resembling a third eye has appeared on its forehead.
"Is this Mega Gengar?" Misty and Pikachu stepped forward to examine Gengar with curiosity.
The evolved Gengar was also very excited, as it could feel its power increasing.
"Alright, Gengar, familiarize yourself with your powers. Tomorrow we'll be battling Ms. Agatha!"
"Goblin!"
On the second day after the 100,000 volts, Kikuko was already waiting at the battlefield of the temple.
Grandma Suzukin and Shigeru helped tidy up the battlefield.
Ash and his friends arrived there soon after.
"Are you ready, Ash?"
"Of course, Ms. Kikuko, we can begin anytime!"
Hearing Ash's energetic response, Kikuko nodded in satisfaction.
"Daimu's grandson, be the referee."
Xiao Mao didn't have much of a temper when the other party ordered him around like this, and obediently went to the middle of the field.
Kikuko took out her Poké Ball and threw it onto the field, where a red light flashed.
A Pokémon appeared on the field with a dark green body, will-o'-the-wisp-like hair, red irises, and a string of red beads around its neck.
As soon as it appeared, it flew happily around Kikuko, revealing a mischievous smile.
"This Pokémon is a Misdreavus—"
Ash the Misdreavus has been seen quite often in the forest. To be honest, he's small and very cute, but he doesn't seem to match Agatha's imposing presence.
"Alright, since that's the case, Gengar is the one!"
With both Pokémon in position, Gary gave the signal to begin.
"Gengar uses Shadow Ball!"
"Dream Spirit Shadow Ball!"
With a deafening boom, the collision of the shadow orbs produced a massive explosion, whipping up dust that made it difficult for onlookers to open their eyes.
"Oh dear, the old man's eyes can't withstand this kind of damage."
Grandma Lingjin quickly hid behind Xiao Mao, using him as cover.
"The attacks from both sides are so strong." Xiao Mao shielded his face with his arm, intently observing the battle.
They started by exchanging Shadow Balls as a friendly gesture, and both Pokémon showed excited expressions on their faces.
Ash immediately revealed his Mega Evolution.
A flash of white light illuminated the Mega Gengar, which stood tall on the earth.
"Goblin!"
"So you and Gengar have already mastered Mega Evolution. That's quite a pleasant surprise."
A hint of surprise appeared on Kikuko's face.
"Looks like we should send Gengar into battle. But this battle won't be boring. Misdreavus, use Trick Room."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Dream Demon immediately released a shimmering flash of light that distorted the surrounding space.
"What is this?" This was the first time Ash had encountered this kind of tactic.
"When Ash activates this move, as long as the space is active for a certain period of time, slower Pokémon can attack first, so be careful."
Xiaoxia, the external brain, quickly reminded Xiaozhi that he shouldn't underestimate the enemy and act rashly just because he has a Mega Gengar.
"I see, so that means the opponent's attacks will always be faster than mine."
It is a bit troublesome.
Ash believed that with Gengar's power after Mega Evolution, as long as he survived the first round, his own move would hit once and he could defeat Misdreavus.
"Gengar uses Shadow Ball!"
"Dream Demon, Dark Pulse!"
Due to the effect of Trick Room, Misdreavus, which was originally much slower than Gengar, launched its attack first.
The opponent's Dark Pulse was extremely powerful, instantly repelling Gengar and almost dissipating the Shadow Ball that had been condensing in its mouth.
"What incredible power!"
"Pikachu!"
Misty and Pikachu, who were watching the battle from behind Ash, exclaimed in surprise.
The Misdreavus was too fast to see clearly, yet the power of the Dark Pulse still left a deep scratch on the field.
This Misdreavus is a very high-level Pokémon, a genuine Elite Four-level Pokémon, not just cannon fodder randomly sent out by Agatha Christie.
However, Gengar, being Ash's Pokémon, has the advantage of being trained by his family and is "naturally" stronger than its kind.
Furthermore, after Mega Evolution, Gengar's Special Attack is greatly enhanced, and its Speed is also increased.
He quickly recovered and transformed into a black shadow, swiftly moving behind the Dream Demon.
"Well done, Gengar! Now, use Shadow Ball!"
A black energy ball condensed in its mouth and was fired at the Dream Demon.
This Shadow Ball was extremely swift and powerful, hitting the Dream Demon directly, and a painful expression immediately appeared on its face.
"good!"
Ghost-type is super effective against Ghost-type, and Misdreavus is inherently weak in terms of HP.
It was hit by a Shadow Ball from Mega Gengar and suffered massive damage.
"Very impressive power. Gengar has improved a lot compared to a week ago."
Gary carefully observed the battle, wanting to better understand Ash's strength as a formidable rival.
"But you think you can defeat my succubus just like that? It's not enough!"
As expected, after the smoke and dust from the Shadow Ball explosion dissipated, Ms. Kikuko's Misdreavus withstood the attack and did not fall.
"It's an Evolution Stone." Shigeru immediately recognized the item that Misdreavus was carrying.
"If a Pokémon that can still evolve is holding an Evolution Stone, its Defense and Special Defense will both increase by 50%."
It is thanks to this that the Dream Demon can continue fighting.
"Your knowledge is solid, at least you have some strengths." Kikuko rarely praised Shigeru, and then immediately gave orders to Misdreavus.
"Dream Demon uses Pain Relief!"
"What?"
If this move hits, the stamina of both parties will be added together and divided equally.
In the Trick Room, slow-moving Dream Demons will always attack first, and their skill release speed is ridiculously fast.
Gengar was surrounded by the flashes of light emitted by Misdreavus before it even had a chance to dodge. Gengar was covered in the same scars as Misdreavus within the flashes.
Neither of the Pokémon are particularly strong; Misdreavus was already on the verge of losing its ability to battle.
With their stamina evenly split, both sides were left with very low health.
"Then we'll see what the next strike brings!"
Ash and Kiku spoke at the same time.
"Gengar uses Spirit Spell!"
"Dream Demon uses Shadow Ball!"
The opponent's Shadow Ball hit first, and the massive energy ball exploded, kicking up a lot of dust.
"it's over."
"No, not yet, Gengar, stand up!"
Just as Kikuko was about to turn and leave, the Evolution Stone on Misdream suddenly moved and attacked it.
"What?!"
It's Roar of Rejuvenation; Ash used Roar of Rejuvenation.
Although Ash seemed a little overwhelmed as it was his first time facing Trick Room, Gengar persevered and slowly rose from the shadow on the ground with a smile on its face.
"Goblin!"
The Spirit Slash skill was successfully activated.
The dark energy manipulates the evolution stones on the Dream Demon to continuously attack its master.
The main dream demon was quickly overwhelmed by the stones and collapsed.
"Dreamra is unable to battle; Ash wins!"
[Ding! Congratulations on completing the side quest "Challenge the Four Heavenly Kings Kikuko": Please defeat Kikuko in the battle against the main character in Inoue.]
[Rewards: 4000 Alliance Coins; 2 Stamina; 2 Free Spirit Points; 1 Special Ghost-type Pokémon Battle Ticket]
"Great, Gengar!"
After the battle, Gengar's Mega Evolution was deactivated, and Ash rushed over to hug the little black chubby guy in celebration.
Kikuko also withdrew the fallen Dream Demon.
"Thank you for your hard work, you did a great job, Dream Fairy."
She is only gentle with her Pokémon trainer.
After putting away the Spirit Orb, he looked up at Ash. Although his expression was as stern as ever, his words were not cold.
"You win. It seems that Master Da Mu's judgment was correct."
After saying that, Kikuko left the Enchanted Forest without looking back.
What a decisive and efficient owner! Xiao Zhi hasn't even had a chance to properly thank her for taking care of the well.
Xiao Mao followed closely behind, leaving together one after the other.
After witnessing Ash defeat Agatha's Pokémon, his sense of danger intensified.
Now, all Xiao Mao wants is to get to the next place as soon as possible to begin his new master's training.
"They left so easily."
Xia watched as Xiaomao and Juzi left, and she also wanted to leave quickly. She couldn't stand living in this foggy place for a week anymore.
However, just as they were about to leave, Granny Lingjin brought them bad news.
"Because when Kikuko and Shigeru left, they took away the last two cuckoos."
"Now you all have to wait another well's worth of time."
"Oh dear, why?!" Xiaoxia was about to faint.
But that's just as well, the Enchanted Forest is quite populated.
Ash plans to use the special Ghost-type Pokémon Battle Ticket he just obtained.
It makes perfect sense to catch Ghost-type Pokémon in the main forest where Ghost-type Pokémon gather!
After Gengar had rested, Ash returned to the main battle arena.
And they release all their Pokémon.
He wanted to give his new partners a righteous beating.
"I wonder what kind of starter Pokémon will come?" Ash was very excited.
Even the ruthless gang surrounding them was itching for a fight and couldn't wait any longer.
Naoki used the Battle Ticket from his mind, and a dark green starter Pokémon appeared in the center with a white light.
Its appearance was very familiar to Xiaozhi.
"Is that a dream monster?"
That's right, the Pokémon that appeared in front of Ash looked exactly like the one he had just battled, the Master Pokémon Misdreavus.
"But why is it so big!"
This "Dream Fairy" is twice the size of the one that Granny Kikuko raised before, and there are also some differences in appearance.
"Never mind, let's capture it first! Gengar, use Black Gaze!"
"Goblin!"
The little cutie, who had just appeared and was still looking confused, was suddenly stared at by the fiery master with a big black face and fierce eyes.
Just as he was about to run away, he was locked onto by a dark gaze.
"Let's all attack together now!"
A barrage of five or six main moves was immediately unleashed upon the newly appeared Pokémon.
It's utterly inhumane, but extremely efficient.
Seeing that it was about time, Ash immediately threw a Spirit Ball over.
The first attempt failed, but after a few more attempts, the taming was finally successful.
"Okay, I've got a new starter Pokémon!" Ash quickly opened the Pokémon's starter information in the system.

[Jieban: Paradoxical Pokémon, according to legend it was formed from the soul of an ancient pterosaur after its death.]
"Could it be a fossilized pterosaur, formed from the soul of an ancient pterosaur?"
Ash also has an Aerodactyl at the Philosopher's Gym, we can release it together sometime to see.
"But it's still an Absurd Pokémon. Looks like I can raise it along with Majestic Fang."
Winged Wing has excellent base stats and can be considered a superior replacement for Misdreavus.
"It should be the Ancient Sprite of Misdreavus." Ash picked up the Spirit Ball.
"Please give me your guidance, Zhenyifa."

"What is 'rippling water'?"
After the source of the disturbance returned to the Kanto Alliance from the city, Kikuko received a phone call from her family's daughter.
As expected, the face on the other side of the screen still wore that familiar, casual smile.
"Did your mother-in-law go back to Northeast China?"
The main character that appeared on the screen was a beautiful girl with long blue-gray hair.
"Yeah, I'm back. Where did you go all this time, you silly girl?"
"Why didn't you send back any news before? You're not a child anymore, why are you still so troublesome!"
Kikuko's expression was already showing signs of anger.
But the young girl opposite her still seemed indifferent.
He remained cheerful and playful, even joking with Kikuko, who was known as a scary old woman.
"If my mother-in-law gets angry often, she'll get more wrinkles on her face. I just recently caught a new Pokémon."
"Would you like to take a look?"
"Alright, stop fooling around, Rinka!"
If the owner of the city were to hear the girl's name at this moment, he would be absolutely stunned.
Because this is Rika, the youngest Lord of the Johto region and one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Evil type.
"I talked to you about the Lord last time, and I was thinking about how the Lord is doing."
"don't want!
The master refused decisively; Rika has always been like this, never giving Kikuko any face.
"I only like wild masters who are as powerful as Dark-type Pokémon."
"That Xiao Mao is younger than me, and he's such a sissy, I hate him."
Poor Xiao Mao was rejected like that.
To be fair, Xiao Mao isn't exactly effeminate; he's just rather handsome.
"If you don't want it, then don't. It's up to you."
It was just something that Daiki mentioned casually, and she just casually agreed to ask about it when she got back.
It's quite unusual for a person with Kikuko's personality to pressure the younger generation in the family to get married.
The main problem was that Pear Blossom was too unreliable, and Kikuko thought that if she could have a reliable owner to take care of her, she would feel more at ease.
Since she's unwilling, that's fine. She'll talk to Damu about it later.
"However, I did meet a pretty good guy in the Bewildering Forest this time."
"Who is it?"
