Chapter 945 A Suspenseful Exchange Match
Thanks to Dian Dian's outstanding performance, Grape Academy took the first win, bringing the score of the academy exchange match to 1-0.
Next up are the fire-type master Akamatsu and the black-haired girl Nari.
Riko and Nemo exchanged a glance, and after Akamatsu appeared, they immediately sent out Nemo.
Nemo, a champion-level fighter, is Ash's top-tier asset. Winning this match would declare Grape Academy the victorious team.
"Championship level, huh? This is really exhilarating!" Akamatsu excitedly entered the arena, carrying his frying pan.
"Come on, let me end this match." Nemo swung her wrist and walked confidently to the fighting position.
"Looks like we've won this match," Pipa said with a sigh of relief.
"It's not confirmed yet." Xiao Zhi stared at the frying pan that Akamatsu always kept by his side.
Do you know the characteristics of a frying pan?
"The characteristics of a frying pan?" Dot couldn't help but ask, thinking of the Great Blacksmith, "Is it made of iron?"
"Nonsense..." Xiao Zhi rolled his eyes: "It's absorption, absorbing powerful heat to cook delicious dishes."
Red Pine is the only commoner among the Blueberry Four Heavenly Kings, but the fact that he managed to reach this position shows he's definitely a formidable opponent.
“The stronger the opponent, the stronger it becomes,” Teacher Bai Leiya said with a smile. “That’s Chishong.”
Clink! The coin landed. Fried looked at Nemo: "Nemo goes first."
"I won't stand on ceremony, Sticky Merloon, I'm counting on you!" Nemo's plan to start with Sticky Merloon was wise; she was playing it safe.
Even if the opponent is powerful, it's impossible for them to instantly kill the tanky Golem.
"I'm fired up! Fight alongside me, Blaziken!!" As the Poké Ball was released, Akamatsu didn't hesitate to activate Crystallize at the start!
Bang!! The fire totem shone brightly, and the Blaziken, enhanced with the fire attribute by Taijing, opened its arms, sparks bursting from its wrists!
"Marsha~" The flames on the wrists symbolize the fighting spirit of the Blaziken, and at this moment, they are burning fiercely!
"Numeru Dragon, Dragon Pulse!!" Nemo was the first to engage in battle.
"Meru!!" The Numeru Dragon reared up and roared out a purple-gold dragon-shaped wave.
"Such powerful force! Let's meet this head-on! Flame Kick!"
"Mahash!!" Blaziken charged up in place, then unleashed a flying kick—BOOM! The scorching flames exploded, shattering the Dragon Pulse with a single kick!!
"An eye for an eye, Blaziken, Blaze!!" Akamatsu roared with all his might.
"Mosha~!!" Blaziken's body lit up with a scorching red light, and then a terrifying spiral of fire shot out.
"Sticky Dragon, use Surf!" Nemo reacted at the last second.
"Meru!" Meru Dragon forcefully raised her arms, and the waves behind her surged up from the ground, crashing against the oncoming flames.
Boom!! Amidst the massive spray of water, a raging fire shot straight through the waterfall, its momentum undiminished as it slammed into the Goodra Dragon's body.
"Sticky Rumble!" Nemo exclaimed in alarm.
"Sticky~" Sticky Dragon gritted its teeth and took two steps back. After all, it was a weakened version of the explosive flames, and it was not taken away in one wave.
“It’s our turn to fight back.” Nemo held the crystal bead steady in her hand, not throwing it away.
"Use Pounce!!"
"Meru!!" Meru Dragon spread her arms and suddenly pressed down on the opponent.
"I accept the challenge!" Akamatsu's eyes seemed to burn with fierce fire: "Flame Kick!"
"Masha!!" Blaziken slumped its shoulders and twisted its waist, its right leg suddenly bulged with muscles, and a wisp of red light rose up.
"Spot-fitness, indeed something special." A glint of light flashed in Xiao Zhi's eyes.
Then, with a loud bang, Blaziken launched a flying kick to the side, and a scorching red lotus exploded beneath its feet.
Boom!!! The powerful Slimy Dragon was kicked away and fell backward uncontrollably!!
After struggling for a moment, he collapsed to the ground!
"No way!" The three little ones were completely dumbfounded. The strongest senior, Nemo, actually lost the first round?
"We have to go for it, Babutopug, let the Radiant Crystal shine!" The Poké Ball and the Radiant Crystal were launched together.
Babutupo, with an electric totem on its head, has taken over the position of Numerulong!
"Electric type?" Akamatsu was taken aback, then grinned and said, "Then I won't hold back. Blaziken, Flamethrower!"
"Summer's End!!" Blaziken leaped into the air, its entire body enveloped in blazing flames, transforming into a deep blue fireball, and charged toward Babuto.
"Lightning Double Strike!" Nemo unleashed her full power.
"Thu Bo!!" Babu Tubo's body erupted with intense electricity, and his fists shot out simultaneously, transforming into a golden beam that shot out fiercely.
Bang... Boom!!! The full-force collision between Babupo and Blaziken sent both flying through the thick smoke of the explosion!!
"Babu..." Babu Tubo, panting, raised his head, leaving a charred mark on the ground with his arms.
next second...
Whoosh! A lithe figure suddenly burst through the thick smoke!
"Swallow Return!" Akamatsu's voice rang out. Blaziken's fierce flying kick, accompanied by swirling air currents, descended from the sky.
Boom!! Babu was slammed into the ground, and at the same time, Blaziken staggered back two steps and also fell backward...
Thump... One for two! Akamatsu has gained a decisive advantage!!
……
"Come on, Riko~ Time to flip the coin." Fried held up the coin again.
Red Pine's second Pokémon, Talonflame! It fully inherited the spirit of the Fire-type Elite Four.
Facing Nemo's Mane Rock Werewolf, the Undying Gale Wings managed to wear down its opponent with its speed and steel wings!
The score is tied again! Red Pine single-handedly saved Blueberry Academy's reputation!!
In the end, the outcome rested on the shoulders of Nari and Riko.
"Nari goes first!" After the coin toss, the two players took their places.
Now, Roy and Dot were both on edge. Riko's face turned pale with nervousness.
"Riko!" Ash said before the battle began: "Don't battle for the Academy, don't battle for me, battle for your Pokémon and for yourself!"
I can get my own way back to save face for the teacher. You just need to enjoy the game with Magic Masked Cat and the others.
And you guys, you've always been my pride.
Hearing Ash's words of advice, Riko took a deep breath and gradually calmed down.
The journey, with its stops and starts, combat training, and every day spent with Roy and the others—all these experiences are real proof of Riko's existence!
"Go, Scizor!!" Nellie was the first to attack.
At the other end of the field, Riko took a deep breath: "I'm going to win! Blazing Roaring Tiger, go!!"
"Roar!!" With arms outstretched, the Blazing Roaring Tiger roared, its head held high. The tiger's roar echoed through the mountains and forests!
"Scizor, turn back immediately!" Nari knew her target clearly and avoided the enemy's attack!
The Blazing Roaring Tiger neither dodged nor evaded, but straightened its chest and let the opponent's giant claws pound heavily on its chest.
After Scizor returned to its Poké Ball as a streak of light, it was replaced by one of Nelly's ace Pokémon, Metagross!
What it faces is the Dark-type Crystal Orb that Riko has released!
"DD Golden Hook Arm!" Rico's voice echoed throughout the Crystal Pool.
Bang!! The Blazing Roaring Tiger, wreathed in jet-black flames, swung its arms like a windmill and slammed the Metagross into the ground with a powerful elbow strike.
Immediately, blazing flames shot out from the belt, exploding right up to his face!
Boom! Amidst the powerful blast of the explosion, Riko's expression remained resolute.
Xiao Zhi smiled; this kid has really grown up.
