"Come on over here, let me see your strength," Xiao Mao said.
Shinji was somewhat dissatisfied. In his opinion, Shigeru was about the same age as him, so he had no right to go easy on him.
"Inferno Monkey, Cross Slash!" Shinji commanded.
With its arms crossed and covered in a layer of white energy fluctuations, Infernape charged rapidly toward Scythe Helm.
"Break the water flow!" Xiao Mao 190 commanded.
The scythe-helmet's double blades were covered in water, and it was swung out in a frontal slash.
bump! !
The cross-shaped split and the water flow breaking collide.
"scare!"
With a powerful thrust of his arms, Kabuto sent Infernape flying backward.
Shinji frowned, indicating that Infernape had lost in terms of power, so they needed to change their tactics.
"Spirit attack!" Shigeru immediately issued the command, showing no hesitation.
Scythe Helm pursued, its body adorned with countless stone blades that shot rapidly toward Infernape.
Bang! Bang! Bang...!
The Infernape is also quite brave, shattering the stone blades with its fists. However, when faced with a dense barrage of stone blades, the Infernape cannot block every single one. It relies entirely on its fearlessness of pain to withstand the attacks of sharp stones.
"Water jet!"
The scythe-helmet was covered in water, transforming into a stream of water that rushed towards the Fire Monkey. Taking advantage of the Fire Monkey's defense against the stone blades, it used its scythe to knock the Fire Monkey away.
bump! !
The Infernape crashed into the wall, but it was not defeated. Its eyes were bloodshot, and red aura rose from its body.
"This... the anger (bbcj) pressure point!"
Shigeru was immediately startled, never expecting that Shinji's fiery characteristic was the Anger Point.
"Inferno Monkey, use Cross Slash!" Shinji commanded, waving his hand.
"Crunch!!"
The Infernape, its entire body radiating a red aura, quickly ran into the arena and charged towards Kabuto.
At this point, trying to out-move Infernape would be suicidal.
"Dig a hole!" Xiao Mao commanded.
The scythe-helmet immediately burrowed into the ground.
Upon seeing Kabuto burrow into the ground, Infernape immediately stopped moving, showing that it was not blinded by anger, demonstrating that Shinji is well-trained.
"Use your true energy fist on the ground beneath your feet!" Shinji commanded with a furrowed brow.
Infernape took a deep breath, condensing golden fighting spirit into its right fist, and slammed it into the ground.
Boom! !
The ground, struck by Infernape's fist, split open with a spiderweb-like crack, shattering the earth. Scythe Helm was also thrown out, indirectly suffering damage from the shockwave.
Upon seeing the scythe-armored figure emerge, Shinji quickly commanded, "Cross Slash!"
With white energy swirling around its arms, Infernape charged towards Kabuto. At this distance, Kabuto had no room to dodge.
"Waterfall climbing!"
Knowing he couldn't dodge, the scythe-helmeted creature mobilized all the water-based energy within its body and unleashed its full power with Waterfall Climb.
"scare!"
The scythe-helmet was surrounded by rushing water on both sides and charged quickly toward Infernape.
Bang! !
The two clashed fiercely, and unsurprisingly, the Firestorm Beast cleaved through the water that enveloped the Scythe Helmet's body, sending it flying instantly.
bump! !
The scythe-helmet struck the wall outside the arena, fell to the ground with a thud, and lay motionless.
"Sickle Helmet is unable to fight, Fire Monkey wins!" Little Yellow announced.
"Helmeppo, come back." Gary retrieved Helmeppo and then sent out a second Pokémon.
"Go, Omastar!"
Baton!
【LV49 Omastar♂/Gym】
Upon seeing Omanyte, Shinji immediately pulled out a Poké Ball.
"Inferno Monkey, come back and rest."
Xiao Mao was also speechless. It was really frustrating that the gym leader wouldn't let him replace his Pokémon. No wonder gym leaders like to create venues that are advantageous to them.
Shinji was also seeing Omanyte for the first time, so he took out his Pokédex to scan it.
Pokédex entry: "Omanymmon, a whirlpool creature, uses its sharp fangs to crush the shells of its prey and eat the meat inside."
"Tortoise, I choose you." Shinji threw the Pokémon in his hand.
Baton!
【LV54 Tortoise (male) / Quasi-Elite Four】
"Bata!"
A giant tortoise carrying a large tree on its back makes its appearance.
Xiao Mao: (⊙o⊙)…This…!
Shinji is really something else! He's exactly like a player, completely mastering type advantages and disadvantages, giving gym leaders no chance at all.
Torterra is a Grass-type Pokémon, and Grass-type moves can deal 4x damage to Omanyteil.
Just this morning, Shinji was questioning Gary's identity as the gym leader, but now the Pokémon he sent out are all very effective against Gary's Pokémon.
Shigeru strongly suspected that Shinji had been gathering information about him around noon.
"Omanyte, use salt water!" Gary commanded.
The spiny ammonite immediately launched an attack, spewing out salt water.
Shinji trusted his Torterra, his starter Pokémon, and challenged head-on, saying, "Use Energy Ball."
The earth turtle opened its mouth and spat out a bright green energy ball.
The two skills collided, and the energy ball instantly suppressed it, forcing it to retreat step by step. When it was only a little over a meter away from the Omanyte, the energy ball could no longer suppress it and exploded with a bang.
Boom! !
The energy surge generated by the explosion of vegetation spread outwards, and the Omanyte, unable to avoid it, was affected and suffered very serious damage.
There was nothing Xiao Shi could do; he couldn't switch Pokémon, so he could only watch Omastar suffer. Being a gym leader is no easy feat.
Gary glanced at Omastar and, without bothering with any tactics, directly commanded, "Use Ancient Power."
Omastar summoned a large number of rocks and threw them at Torterra.
"Green Leaf Storm!" Shinji said fearlessly, meeting the challenge head-on.
"Bata!"
The leaves of the tree on the turtle's back fell and transformed into a long, green serpentine storm that swept forward.
The rocks constructed by primal forces were swept away by the green leaf storm, and fossils were blown off the field along with the spiny Omanyte.
boom! !
Smoke suddenly rose.
473: Defeat Shinji
The smoke cleared.
The spiny omanid lay on the ground, its eyes darting around.
"Omanyst is unable to fight, Torterra wins!" Little Yellow said.
After making the announcement, Xiao Huang looked at Xiao Mao with anticipation.
Since Gary became the interim gym leader of Viridian Gym, no challenger has ever been able to force out his third Pokémon, and Yellow has never seen it either.
Now, Gary has been defeated by Shinji in two consecutive battles, while Shinji hasn't lost a single Pokémon. Yellow is a little worried that Gary's first defeat in a gym battle might be imminent.
"Thank you for your hard work, get some rest." Gary recalled his Omastar.
Although Shinji defeated two of his Pokémon, Gary didn't care much. Kabuto and Omanyte weren't Gary's main Pokémon, and he usually didn't pay much attention to them.
If Shinji can't even defeat Kabuto and Omanyte, he's not worthy of being Ash's opponent.
"Shinji, your skills are not bad, but I'm going to get serious from now on," Shigeru said.
"Stop talking big. If you're going to be serious, you should be serious from the start. You only have one Pokémon left. It's obvious I'm going to win," Shinji retorted.
Shigeru was surprised; Shinji was usually a very meticulous person, so he never expected him to open champagne to celebrate ahead of time.
"Aerodactyl, you've been sleeping for so long, it's your turn." Gary smiled slightly and tossed the Poké Ball into the air.
Baton!
The Poké Ball opened in mid-air, revealing a Pokémon exuding an ancient and primal aura.
【LV62 Fossil Pterosaur ♂/Champion】
"Roar!!"
The fossil pterosaur roared, and a powerful, primal pressure enveloped the entire area.
Xiao Huang and Shinji were both stunned; it was the first time they had ever seen a fossil pterosaur.
"Tortoise, come back and rest!" Shinji immediately recalled Tortoise.
