Chapter 11 Lucario
Chapter 11 Lucario
"Riolu leaps to dodge the opponent's charge and uses Comet Punch!"
With a single leap, Riolu rendered Rattata incapable of battling.
"Great, ten consecutive wins!" Ash shouted excitedly.
The outskirts of Cerulean City are covered with farmland, with fields visible everywhere along the roads.
There are many trainers battling in the area around here.
Ash was one of them.
Although there are few wild Pokémon in this area, there are many trainers who love to challenge passing travelers.
At first, Ash was just doing his daily training with his Pokémon in an open area nearby.
But after learning that he had already obtained two badges, the previously scattered trainers began to surround him one by one, taking turns to challenge Ash.
Of course, Xiaoxia also played a significant role in "gathering monsters".
The four Cerulean sisters are very famous in Cerulean City.
Countless local teenagers saw Misty holding Pikachu, standing behind Ash like a waiting-for-her-husband rock.
They all gritted their teeth and gathered around Xiaozhi, calling their friends and acquaintances.
"Those rude strangers are so disrespectful!"
"The most beautiful flower among our younger generation at Hualan has been plucked like this! Unforgivable!"

Ash certainly wouldn't miss such a rare opportunity to train his Pokémon, and he accepted all the battle requests.
And unless the opponent is too strong, prioritize sending out Clefairy, Riolu, and other Pokémon that Ash is currently relatively weak with.
I don't know if it's because the Cerulean Gym set a bad example, but the skill level of the trainers in this area is really average.
Ash is now like a god of war, winning one battle after another without stopping.
"Ash, have you finished battling? Let's hurry up and get going." Misty had been standing there for a long time, and her legs were getting sore.
"No, Xiaoxia, I already promised them I'd fight them. How can I go back on my word?"
After massaging Xiaoxia's legs, Xiaozhi, having thoroughly enjoyed the massage, continued earnestly...
"And you can make a fortune."
This is an unspoken rule among Pokémon trainers.
In these informal challenges, the winner can take two or three hundred yuan of pocket money from the loser.
With this money and the rewards from the system, Xiao Zhi has become completely obsessed with money.
"How long is this battle going to last?!" Looking at the huge crowd around her, Xiaoxia could only sigh and continue to wait helplessly.
"Pikachu overpowered it with a Thunderbolt!"
"Use thunder now!"
Amidst the deafening roar of lightning, Ash achieved his 11th consecutive victory.
"Beedrill took the opportunity to create distance and used Pin Missile!"
13-game winning streak
"Dodge the attack! Riolu, use Wave Missile now!"
15-game winning streak
"Great, the singing is working! Pipi rushes over and uses her slap!"
20-game winning streak
"Pipi used a series of slaps!"
With his 37th consecutive win and having accumulated enough experience, Ash used a Moon Stone to evolve Clefairy into Clefairy.
The battle continues.
99th consecutive win!
Slowly opening his eyes, Ash ignored the unwilling cries of his opponents and remained silent.
In the somber atmosphere, he seemed to be surrounded by an aura of dominance.
Of course, it's not that Ash deliberately stayed silent to pretend to be a pro.
It's just that I fought all day and managed to shout myself hoarse.
The last opponent stepped forward to shake hands with Ash after the match.
This man with a center-parted hairstyle, suspenders, and glasses has a pretty good Nidorino.
It withstood five rounds of Ash's Beedrill attack, but was finally defeated by a fatal sting.
"A total of 99 consecutive wins, you are really amazing, I admit defeat wholeheartedly."
There was still a hint of resentment in the words of the man in overalls and glasses.
"We're entrusting the mermaids of Cerulean City to you!"
"Your skills are quite good."
Ash originally planned to give a long, boastful speech.
My throat was really sore, so I could only give that brief response.
"That's what the bespectacled man said with a sigh."
"Maybe you can defeat Xiaoming."
"Xiao Ming?"
"He built a private gym right there, and he's a trainer known as 'Beast Master Xiaoming.' I heard he's never lost a match so far!"
"Really? Okay! I'm going to meet him." Xiao Zhi's throat hurt terribly when he spoke even a little louder.
He quickly ran to Xiaoxia and drank some anti-inflammatory herbal tea, which made him feel a little better.
There's nothing I can do but rest tonight and go see Xiaoming tomorrow.
The next morning, Ash, fully recovered, went to Demigos's gym full of energy.
Seeing Ash struggling to survive yesterday, only to be back to his energetic self overnight, Xiaoxia couldn't help but exclaim that Ash's recovery ability was truly terrifying!
Since Xiaoming built the dojo, he naturally wants people to come and challenge him, so it can't be a remote place.
Not long after they started walking along the main road, Ash and his friends found a tent-shaped private gym surrounded by a wooden fence in a clearing in the woods.
The sign above the gate reads "98 consecutive wins".
"Would you like to have a competition?"
A burly young man with green hair emerged from the forest.
Looking at the boy in front of him, Ash asked, "Are you Beastmaster Xiaoming?"
Xiao Ming smiled slightly.
"It seems you heard the rumors about me from local trainers."
"I just got back from catching a new Pokémon, but I'm not going to refuse a challenge. Come on in."
The wooden gate slowly opened, revealing an area that was considerably larger than it appeared from the outside.
It's clearly a private martial arts school, but it looks quite formal.
It's easy to imagine that the owner of this place put a lot of thought into it.
The two quickly took their places on the field.
"Xiao Ming, you've put up such a huge sign to promote your record! My current winning streak is 99 games. Let's see whose record will be broken first!"
"Alright, a formidable opponent has finally arrived. You'll be my nourishment!"
Upon hearing that Ash had achieved a 99-game winning streak, Ming finally took it seriously.
"After achieving my 100th victory, I'll embark on a journey to earn badges!"
*Snap!* Xiao Ming confidently cracked his whip.
"My Pokémon is Sandshrew, so bring on whatever opponent you send!"
"Riolus, I choose you!"
The opponent didn't look weak, so Ash learned his lesson and didn't stubbornly send out Pikachu. Instead, he chose Riolu, which had a type advantage.
"Riolu, let's attack first! Use Vacuum Wave!"
A gust of air pressure, like a gale, swept by, pinning the pangolin to the ground, rendering it unable to move.
However, under Xiaoming's whip, the pangolin suddenly kicked off with great force, broke free from the vacuum wave's restraints, and leaped up from the ground.
It curled up into a ball and quickly struck Riolu.
This attack was so powerful that Riolu was sent flying and fell to the ground, looking like it was in pain.
"Use Earth Fissure!"
Rumble! The entire stage seemed to be hit by an earthquake, with tiny cracks like a spider web appearing on the shaking ground.
Riolu, lying on the ground, suffered another great injury.
"This is outrageous! Is this really a Sandshrew?!" Ash was more serious than ever before.
This Xiao Ming lives up to his reputation; he's several levels better than those weak trainers on the street.
Without giving it a moment's respite, the sand rat once again transformed into a rapidly spinning armored ball and charged forward.
"Hold on, Riolu, stand up!"
Perhaps the experience accumulated from previous battles has reached a critical point.
Ash's immense aura surged forth, resonating with Riolu on the ground.
A dazzling white light emanated from the fallen Riolu.
After a transformation, Riolu's size increased several times, and it successfully evolved into Lucario.

Congratulations on winning the reward: Lucario Mega Evolution Stone (Pokémon)
[Congratulations, host, on your ability to upgrade your Aura Force from LV1 to LV2]
Lucario's stamina was fully restored, and he successfully jumped into the air before Sandshrew's attack arrived.
