Pokémon: Ash's Rebirth World Line Concludes

Chapter 985 Rico VS Roy (Part 2)

"Meow!" Under the spotlight, the Magic Masked Meow made a nimble move, relying on its ever-changing magic moves, and made the Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile miss its target.

"Great!" Sundae couldn't help but praise.

Xiao Zhi glanced at the woman. What's so good about her? She's already gotten so close, what are you going to do next...?

Sure enough, boom!!! scorching flames shot out carrying musical notes.

"Bababa~" Flash Flame sang! The Bone-Patterned Giant Crocodile's innate skill was activated.

The ring of fire surrounding the high-pitched voice instantly blasted the Magic Masked Cat away!

"Magic Mask Nyan!!" Riko exclaimed.

Ash watched from the sidelines, frowning deeply... The showy dodging technique could have easily created space, but instead, the opponent stopped not far away.

How did this teacher teach?

Moreover, it's clear that Riko's fighting spirit has declined significantly. Even though she had created an opening by dodging, she didn't immediately strike a fatal blow. Is this a case of "friendship first, competition second"?

Even Roy noticed the problem: "Rico... be serious..."

"I... understand." Rico shook her head, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopped herself, before perking up again.

"We can't let our guard down any longer. Roy's strength... is much stronger than before we separated. Moreover, this pace is one that comes with real combat experience!"

"Thousand Faces Avoid!" Riko recalls her Magic Masked Cat and dons Thousand Faces Avoid.

"Wow!! So handsome!! He's the senior's king of secret agents!"

"The Thousand-Faced Avatar is so cool!"

"Everyone..." Riko couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. This kind of attention would actually cause the Thousand Faces to lose its stealth and flexibility as a sniper...

"Hehe..." Roy confidently recalled his Bone-Patterned Crocodile and immediately switched Pokémon: "Go, Lucario!"

"Lu~" A circle of starlight flashed by, and amidst the light effects symbolizing Shiny Pokémon, the golden Lucario rallied its arms and shouted.

Bang! The sheer force of the impact sent his opponent staggering back two steps.

"Thousand Faces Escaper. Sniper!" Rico launched another attack.

Bang! Thousand Faces Blink raised its hand and fired, a high-speed water bullet instantly enveloping Lucario.

“Alloy Claws!” Roy said in a deep voice.

"Luca~" With arms crossed, the golden Lucario instantly transformed into a whirlwind.

Ding!! Golden flashes almost continuously pierced through the barrage of water bullets, and then a sharp iron claw gripped the throat of the Thousand-Faced Escaper.

"Incredible speed!" An exclaimed from the side.

Rico's mind raced: "Invisibility, then water jet!"

"Inters!" The figure suddenly became transparent. The Thousand-Faced Avoid took a step back and quickly changed direction. Then, the water surged and it charged forward!

Bang!! Lucario grabbed her fist with one hand, and Thousand Faces stared wide-eyed in surprise.

“Lucario is an Aura Pokémon, so hiding in front of him is the most useless disguise…” Ash couldn’t help but sigh.

Riko was originally the strongest of the three, but her current performance is a bit disappointing.

"Now!!" Riko's voice rang out firmly.

She knew Lucario had incredible speed and perception, so she had to get right up close!

"Vacuum wave!!"

With a flick of his wrist, the Thousand Faces Beast touched Lucario's forehead, unleashing a burst of power at point-blank range!

Bang!! Lucario fell backward violently, and Thousand Faces unleashed its dual pistols!

"Continuous sniping!"

*Ding!* A crisp metallic sound rang out as the golden Lucario raised its head, revealing a bluish-gray tinge on its forehead!

"Iron Head! When?!" Rico's expression changed again.

"Just as you were touching my face," Roy chuckled. "Although I'm not a waveguide messenger, I can't command things like the teacher and Yagen-san using waveguides."

However, I've found that after spending so much time with Lucario, our family sometimes develops a bit of a tacit understanding~

"Thousand Faces Escape, Immerse!" Rico suddenly changed her move.

Splash! Caught off guard, Lucario was splashed in the face, and then a burst of blue light shone around its body!

"I see." On the rooftop, Professor Oak clapped his hands and laughed, "Because Inteleon doesn't have any special moves to deal with Lucario's Steel/Fighting style."

Therefore, after converting the opponent to Water type, you can use your preferred Flying type moves to decide the outcome!

Sure enough, the next second, the Thousand Faces Avoid raised their hands together, and an air dagger appeared in their hands, held in reverse.

"Go, Air Slash!" Riko said seriously.

“Melee? Accept the challenge!” Roy crossed his arms, revealing the Evolution Keystone on his wrist.

"Mega evolution too! How sneaky is that..." Sundae couldn't help but complain.

"If you're so capable, why don't you teach me too..." Xiao Zhi rolled his eyes impatiently.

With a whoosh, amidst the seven-colored glow of evolution, Mega Lucario pulled out a golden bone club with both hands, and suddenly pushed off with its feet, heading straight for Inteleon.

Clang! Clang! The bone club and the air dagger clashed, constantly exploding into sparks.

Bang!! After a few seconds of stalemate, Lucario seized the opportunity and slammed his palm into Thousand Faces' chest, unleashing his power!

Boom!! A shockwave exploded behind her, and the Thousand Faces Evader was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing heavily into the ground beside her.

"How can we possibly win this...?" one student couldn't help but groan.

"Tch... What's so hard about not being able to win?" Ulte scoffed dismissively.

"Rico, if it doesn't work out, let's just stop fighting. It's okay to admit defeat," Ann said worriedly from the side.

“It’s alright.” Lico shook her head vigorously, then looked up, a flame burning in her eyes: “Roy, we’ll fight to the very end!”

Roy grinned happily: "That's more like it! Come on!!"

Mega Lucario is very powerful, and Roy doesn't plan to change his Pokémon anymore.

Therefore, everyone's attention was focused on Rico.

"Go, Blazing Roaring Tiger!"

"Whoa!!" Riko's most powerful Pokémon has finally made its appearance.

Because of its overly assertive nature, Riko rarely uses it on campus.

But without a doubt, now is the time for the Blazing Roaring Tiger to reignite its fury.

"Pfft..." Ulte suddenly chuckled.

Then it was Xiaozhi's turn, and finally even the people on the platform shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

"Too clever by half..."

Incineroar and Super Lucario closed in at top speed, their Flame Punch and Focus Slam punch hitting each other simultaneously.

Boom!!! The violent aura exploded, and the Blazing Roaring Tiger plowed a deep crater in the ground! One hit and it was done for?!

Looking at Lucario again, he gently patted the mark on his chest, but was almost unharmed.

"Riko...do you remember when you were first submerged in water?" Ash reminded her helplessly.

"So Lucario is now a Water-type!!" Riko suddenly looked up.

"Not only in battles, but Roy even guessed your Pokémon lineup..." Ash's voice was leisurely.

"Hehe, after all, Riko and I are really close." Roy scratched his head and recalled Lucario.

"I..." Riko came to Ash's side, bowing her head in self-reproach: "I'm sorry, teacher..."

"What are you talking about? You've only had a period of peace and quiet." Ash chuckled and ruffled Riko's hair.

"What on earth is going on?" Sundae looked at the group of people interacting with each other in despair.

"Don't you know?" Ash turned around with a smile: "Riko is also one of my students."

"Uh..." Sundae rolled her eyes and fainted.

"Teacher!" Amidst the students' exclamations, Ash waved to the group on the rooftop and led Riko back to pack their things.

To be continued...
