Under the dark clouds.

Furious thunder and lightning flickered.

Menas groaned from the electric shock, but Adam's attention was completely off of it.

Instead, he was looking at the heterochromatic Menas that was entangled in multiple rings of water and had a whirling ball of light that released lightning, and his eyes were full of surprise that could not be concealed.

And when his eyes moved to the other side of the cypress that had returned to calm, and the Bosco Dora, who was still roaring outside the field, and other Pokémon that were gradually being driven, his surprise turned into a feeling of regret.

"I see......"

Adam muttered softly.

Peng!

The current released to the extreme instantly evaporated a large amount of pool water, and the majestic white mist rumbled with the sound of the explosion.

Kashiwagi's voice came again, "Hypnotism!" ”

"Miao!"

The light in his eyes flashed and turned into a brilliant blue light.

Both know very well that the other party can't even kill the mirror reflection that doubles the damage, and the awakening power of the electric attribute is also impossible.

However, since this guy's previous self-regeneration did not completely heal the injuries inside and outside the body, the cumulative damage of another awakening electricity is enough to cause it to have to use self-regeneration to recover again.

Of course.

The main reason for not using hypnosis in the first place is that Kashiwagi suddenly discovered the fact that Adam's Menas was awake the moment he raised his body.

If hypnotism was used, Menas, who was still in full state at the time, might be able to use the mysterious guardian at the same time under the command of Adam, resulting in the ineffectiveness of hypnotism and wasting a lot of time.

On the other hand, although the power of the Awakening Electricity is small, it can start fast enough, and the effect of paralyzing the opponent's body when attacking effectively prevents the opponent from making small movements.

When the damage is full, Adam's Menas is in a state of lack of physical strength, and most of them will not be able to block the hypnotism so easily.

Even if the follow-up is really avoided by it with veteran experience and special methods, under the premise of awakening the electric attack on Minas and causing effective damage, his side will not lose.

Just one word - "stable"!

Airplanes!

The blue light turned into a ripple and spread forward, and the increase in the hit rate brought by the coil curled up made the ripple scale much larger.

But what Kashiwagi didn't expect was that after the blue light ripples of hypnotism suddenly swept away part of the white mist, Adam Menas, who was originally located in front of him, mysteriously disappeared.

Missing—no!

He stared at the dark water, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "It's right below you!" Jump up with a waterfall climb! ”

"Miao!?"

Heterochromatic Menas subconsciously looked down, and a dark shadow became clear from the lake in its vision.

Peng!

Adam's Menas burst out of the water!

"Tight."

Calmly, he gave the command, and Menas quickly circled along the surface of Menas, and restrained him with his long serpent body.

"Milu!"

"Miao!?"

Heterochromate Menas snorted and struggled, but the other party seemed to hold down its lifeline, not only tightening and tightening, but also making it unable to move, and even felt that it was difficult to breathe, and even the waterfall that it was trying to use was interrupted.

The sudden change made Kashiwagi frown.

He couldn't figure out where Adam's Menas had come from to maintain such swift evasion, movement speed, and muscle strength after accumulating such severe damage.

You must know that Heterochromatic Menas has also used the coil to improve attack and defense, and has learned the technique of binding with the Great Steel Snake, so there is no reason to lose so quickly.

Adam smiled and said, "Don't underestimate my Menas, just the awakening power of the electric attribute can't affect it, and I'm also very confident in it."

"Moreover, I am more aware of the weaknesses of this kind of Pokémon in Menas beyond the attributes."

…… What do you mean?

[Seven inches]?

Kashiwagi looked at Menas, who was constantly trying to struggle, but his movements were limp and weak, and he knew that he had lost to his understanding of Menas.

Thinking about it, it was impossible for Adam, who was an expert in Menas, not to guard against hypnotism, and most likely he quietly ordered it when he shouted.

He looked at Adam on the chair of the pavilion, and the middle-aged gentleman's face was indeed full of strategizing smiles.

But in any case, it is necessary to get out of the current predicament.

"Hypnotism again!"

If you can't move your body, you can move your head, and the tight bundle seems to lock up the heterochromatic Menas, but on the other hand, it also locks Adam's Menas!

Adam whispered, "Tickle." ”

The voice fell.

Before the eyes of Menas of different colors lit up with the blue light of hypnosis, Adam's Menas took the lead in touching the entire body of the former with his dexterous tail that emitted white light.

"Mi~~"

The intense itching sensation immediately made Heteromenas twist his limbs unbearably, but now the long snake's body was being locked, giving it a pitiful surplus of activity, making it extremely uncomfortable.

At this moment, compared to the physical torture, the decrease in attack and defense value caused by tickling is nothing.

The good news is that the competitive trait is triggered, and its special attacks get a rapid increase.

Kashiwagi saw an opportunity, and spoke out one after another to reassure Heterochromate Menas and make him persevere.

Just as he used to crush other trainers with all kinds of knowledge and intelligence, this time Adam also relied on his knowledge of Menas to crush him unilaterally.

Thankfully, this battle is neither an important gym challenge nor a gamble to decide something important.

It's just a teach.

He kept an eye on Menas's tail's movements, wrapping around the joints where Menas stopped his movements, and although the real teaching had not yet begun, the battle had already taught him a lot.

Unfortunately, before he could take a few more looks, Adam's order came again.

"Let go of it, regenerate yourself."

"Milu!"

Hearing this, Adam Menas quickly broke out of his tight state, and while he distanced himself from his opponent, his body lit up with a golden self-healing glow.

over the field.

The dark clouds slowly dispersed, and no more rain was sprinkled, and the rainy days that had lasted for a long time were finally over.

"Menas cheer up!"

Kashiwagi cried out loudly to finally get a breather, but he still couldn't return to the god's heterochromatic Menas.

The combination of tight and tickling may not have done much actual harm, but it left the latter exhausted, and for a while he could only sit back and watch Adam's Menas recover.

finally grasped the initiative, and once again fell into the hands of the other party.

Heterochromatic Menas was physically and mentally exhausted and a little flustered.

It doesn't have the same tacit understanding with trainers as Bosco Dora, and it has never had enough combat experience, and it will inevitably feel flustered when it encounters difficulties after the first outburst.

"Don't be afraid! We have many more opportunities! ”

Kashiwagi shouted to reassure Heteromenas, not rushing to attack, even though he wanted to interrupt the other party's self-regeneration.

The water ring has been continuously healing the latter's injuries and restoring its strength, so don't look at the signs of almost losing just now, in fact, the state of Heterochromate Menas is actually quite good.

At most, the awakening power is in vain, but the special attack brought by the good competition is improved, and it is not impossible to hit the opponent again!

After hearing the trainer's voice, Heterochrom Menas gradually calmed down.

It feels stupid, so it basically gives up most of its autonomous behavior, and mainly obeys the command to make various judgments...... Whatever the trainer says, that's what it is.

The two looked at Adam Menas in the reply again, and could see that the state of this guy after receiving the awakened power was far less relaxed than Adam said, otherwise it would not have been restored for so long.

Seeing that the battle seemed to be about to return to the original situation, Kashiwagi stared.

"Freeze the water in front of you with a blizzard!"

It's an opportunity to do it all over again!

"Miao!"

Heteromenas took a deep breath and spewed forward a howling wind mixed with snow particles, and the waves along the way were instantly frozen into ice cubes, making a crisp khaka sound along the way.

Compared to the previous Frozen Beam, which did not leave any ice cubes, the Blizzard Freezing Efficiency after the special attack was increased is visible to the naked eye.

Of course.

This time the landing point was also different from the previous one, and Kashiwagi, who had gained experience, knew that as long as he focused on freezing the water in the middle section of the pond first, it would be enough to hinder the rapid formation of tidal swirls.

A little worse, and the result will be much worse!

Whew-

In the roaring wind, the blizzard blew towards Menas, whose golden light was still gone.

"It's a lot of ideas, but unfortunately I've never had more than one stunt."

Adam smiled, "Water Ring." ”

The voice fell.

The turquoise water ring emerged from Menas's body, but unlike the multiple rings of Heterochromatic Menas, it had only one - but it was extraordinarily thick!

Rumble!

Like the rumbling sound of a flood exploding the embankment, the water loop that can be called a column of water instantly expands and thickens again, colliding with the incoming blizzard!

Kakaka –

The crunch sound of continuous freezing was like dozens of packets of potato chips being crushed at the same time, and the surface of the water ring was quickly turned into ice crystals by a blizzard, but as it never stopped expanding and expanding, these ice crystals all broke into lumps.

In an instant.

The ring of water had already arrived in front of Menas with large and small blocks of ice, and the blizzard had not been able to stop its expansion.

"Miao!"

Heterochromic Menas' eyes widened, unable to dodge.

Peng!

The water is bursting! Ice Shoot Down!

Heterochromatic Menas was forced to fall back into the water.

There was a slight stinging pain from the ice chips on his face, but Kashiwagi didn't care, he stared at the gradually dissipating water loop, and there was a faint surprise in his eyes.

This unique use of the water ring was used by Menas who had seen the melon in the animation, and even prompted Menas to learn this technique, but he never knew the essentials, and at most bullied and bullied children.

Far from the level of Menas of Adam -

As a non-attacking move, the water flow ring can break through the blizzard head-on so easily, and I can't imagine it.

There's so much to learn!

Kashiwagi suppressed the joy in his heart, his eyes scanned the pool full of ice floes, and when he saw a black shadow quickly sweeping forward from under the ice in the middle, he immediately shouted, "Awaken power!" ”

"Huh?"

Adam's gaze fell on his face, and he also saw the heterochromatic Menas who was already close to his own Menas, and chuckled, "Sure enough, it's a hardy child." I've seen what I want to see, though, so that's it, Tornado. ”

Underwater.

"Miao!"

Several bright yellow balls of light swirled around the heterochromatic Menas who rushed to his opponent, and flashing lightning leaped towards the lower half of Adammenas's body!

Whoa—

The electricity instantly illuminated the slightly dim underwater, but it didn't hit as Menas had expected, and they were all blocked by the azure currents that stirred up the flowing water to form a whirlpool, and the opponent was at the center of the whirlpool.

Waterspout!?

Heterochromatic Menas watched in amazement as his opponent rushed into the sky with the waterspout, hanging high above the pool like a cloud in the mist, meandering and looking down on everything.

It hurriedly chased after it, and the moment its head broke through the water, the trainer's shout rang out in its ears.

"Duck into the water and use the mirror reflection!"

"Dragon's Wave!"

The astonishing energy quickly gathered in Adam's Menas mouth, and it looked at the heterochromatic Menas that showed its head and squirted out mercilessly!

Roar!

The blue dragon that boiled so much energy that it was almost like roaring filial piety fell with a bang, showing its fierceness with its teeth and claws!

The color light on the surface of the heterochromic Menas flowed, as bright and smooth as glass, and the whole body had completely sunk back into the water.

Boom ——!

Loud bang! The water column soars to the sky!

The surging dragon attribute energy was like a high-explosive bomb, blowing up most of the pool field.

The dome of the venue was hit by the violent current and rumbled wildly, and the scattered water splashed in all directions like a torrential rain, drenching the barely half-dried clothes of the cypress in an instant.

He had to tell himself that this was the true strength of Adam's Menas.

Combined with everything that just happened.

Kashiwagi understands that Adam, the semi-retired former gym owner, is fully qualified for the position of the Four Heavenly Kings of Hoen, and will even be a very good member of the Four Heavenly Kings in the world.

It's a pity that the alliance didn't send him an invitation to succeed the Four Heavenly Kings, so Adam's achievements as a trainer can only stop at the top pavilion masters.

Strength and achievement are two different things.

This battle can drag on for so long, and Adam, who has seen the limit of the strength of Heterochromatic Menas with his own eyes, undoubtedly has a certain amount of release, and only took out all his strength in the end, so as to draw an end to this battle.

Thin droplets of water fall from the ceiling.

In the shallower pool, the two Menas stared at each other at a distance.

Immediately.

Heteromenas shook his head like drunkenness, and fell into the water again, making a splash and gasping violently.

The Pokémon cheering on from the sidelines each showed a look of regret.

“…… I lost to the teacher. ”

Kashiwagi bowed his head and admitted defeat, and took out the Poké Ball and took it back to the Heterochromatic Menas, "Thank you for your hard work, your performance is great, rest in peace." ”

"Hmm."

Adam smiled and stepped off the platform.

His Menas swam to the edge of the pool, and with him came to the cypress who had jumped off the platform.

"You've surprised me, Kashiwagi."

Adam whispered, "Even though I've repeatedly raised my opinion of you, you've far exceeded my expectations. To be honest, I was really happy to play against you. ”

"But ......"

He looked at Kashiwagi, who seemed to have doubts in his expression, and said with a sigh in his emotion: "I have to regret that you are already a fairly mature and excellent trainer. ”

"Uh...... Yes? ”

Kashiwagi was stunned by him.

How can a good compliment smell of a derogatory word?

"You've been a trainer for less than a year, have you?" Adam asked softly.

Kashiwagi thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"It's too fast."

The middle-aged gentleman raised his hand to his forehead and said, "It would be nice if I could meet you earlier." Now you have a Pokémon that is almost inseparable...... I was going to create a new and complete container for you, but in the course of the battle, I realized that you had such a beautiful ...... early on."

When Adam said this, he was looking at Boskodora.

Kashiwagi looked at this scene, first dazed, and then his eyes made contact with the equally dazed Boskodora, and suddenly realized.

"Peerless partner!"

He picked up Adam's words softly.
