Chapter 17: Dodo, I'll give you a chance to reorganize your language!
The extreme storm and coldness prevented Ash and Pikachu from opening their eyes!
They could only withstand the cold with difficulty!
Even the spectators sitting behind Ash were attacked by the biting wind!
…
“Wow! As expected of a Legendary Pokémon! Regice is just too strong!”
“He tanked a Thunder without a scratch? Strong! He is truly strong!”
“His body is made of ice from the Ice Age, how could a mere Thunder hurt him?!”
“But that Pikachu is definitely well-trained, that Thunder… if it were any other Pokémon, they would have been defeated, even if they didn’t fall directly, they would still suffer significant damage.”
“Well, all I can say is that Pikachu is facing an opponent that is not in the same class as him, it’s very difficult for Pikachu to win under these circumstances!”
“Forget about it, this wave is just sending us a gift! The odds are just a bit low, 1 to 1.5, you can only make about a hundred points!”
“Don’t complain, it’s good to have something, even a mosquito is meat! Besides, ten points can be exchanged for an Evolution Stone, what more do you want?”
The crowd nodded in agreement.
That’s true.
A hundred points is not a lot.
However, the “ordinary” goods in the item shop are not very expensive.
After thinking about it, the crowd felt better.
Great.
After it's over.
They can think about how to use the hundred points they earned!
…
Sinnoh Region.
Cynthia looked at the unscathed Regice with a solemn expression on her face.
“Regice… is truly strong!”
“My Garchomp… may not be its match.”
It already had a fourfold type disadvantage.
Coupled with the strong defense that Regice displayed, Cynthia’s eyes already contained a hint of fighting spirit.
If she could fight against such a powerful opponent…
“Garchomp, you’re excited too, right?”
“Garchomp!”
Garchomp nodded heavily, looking at the Regice on the screen, eager to fight.
…
On the screen—
Ash didn’t give up.
“We can’t give up!”
“Pikachu, use Iron Tail!”
Ash punched the air, saying resolutely.
“Pika!”
Pikachu, like an arrow leaving the bow, rushed towards Regice with silver light flickering on his tail!
Iron Tail!
Steel-type move!
If it can hit Regice, which is Ice-type, it will definitely have a significant effect!
Watching this scene.
Many people were sweating nervously!
Don’t hit it!
That’s their one hundred points!
“Go for it!”
“Pikachu is the strongest!”
“God-slaying Pikachu meow!”
Unlike those people, Team Rocket cheered for Pikachu wildly.
Pikachu, go for it!
Pikachu, use the same energy you used when fighting them!
Jessie, James, and Meowth were so excited that they were about to jump into the screen and cheer for Ash and Pikachu personally!
They had bet their entire fortune on Pikachu!
Now, Pikachu is their god!
…
Sinnoh Region.
Veilstone City.
An inconspicuous breeding center.
The elder brother of Paul, Glacia, was wearing an apron, but his eyes were fixed on the screen.
Once upon a time.
Glacia was also a Trainer.
He travelled across various regions.
He fought many powerful Gym Leaders and Trainers.
He possessed eight badges from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh.
During those times, he was the most glorious period of his life.
One day, Glacia was invited to the Battle Frontier to participate in the challenge.
At first, Glacia was very excited and thought that this battle was no different from any other battle.
In fact, Glacia was very smooth, and he defeated the six brains of the Battle Frontier.
And he received six symbols from them.
Then he met Mr. A.
As the strongest Trainer in the Battle Frontier, Glacia was defeated miserably by him.
It wasn’t just a defeat.
He was also pointed out his shortcomings by Mr. A.
Too focused on being flashy, lacking his own strength.
The combination of these factors completely destroyed Glacia's determination to become a Trainer.
As a result, he became a breeder in a breeding center.
Although several years have passed.
But Glacia has never forgotten the battle with Mr. A.
Regirock and Registeel.
They are two heavy mountains that weighed heavily on Glacia's heart.
Another Regice appeared on the screen.
Glacia chuckled bitterly.
“To defeat Mr. A… it’s not something that can be done just by relying on Pikachu, Ash.”
Glacia looked at the spirited, persistent Ash.
