Pokemon: Reborn Rich Alternate Earth

Chapter 1058: Chapter 1275: Respective Battle Situations

Since this was a battle to the death, there was no need to follow any rules. and the fastest and most effective method was always to attack the opposing trainer directly.

Facing the assault of three peak Champion Pokémon, Metagross used Teleport, appearing above a Salamence's head before slamming down with a seven-colored Meteor Mash.

With a sickening squelch, the Salamence's head burst open just like a watermelon.

In one move, a peak Champion-level Pokémon was taken out.

However, the three heads of a Hydreigon beside it were already biting toward Metagross, while a Dragonite flapped its wings violently and shot straight toward Julian.

One moved to restrain Metagross, while the other went straight for Julian.

But just as Dragonite accelerated forward, it suddenly felt a terrifying pulling force from behind—its body was dragged straight back.

Metagross had used Psychic to seize control of Dragonite's body, but at this moment, Hydreigon's Crunch had already bitten down on it.

With three heads biting simultaneously, the power of Crunch was instantly multiplied severalfold.

Crack!

But unexpectedly, Hydreigon failed to inflict any damage on Metagross. Instead, its own teeth shattered from the overexertion.

"Meta!"

With a sharp cry, Metagross shook off the Hydreigon away from its body, then slammed a Metal Claw directly into Dragonite's chest, smashing the dragon violently into the ground below.

"ROAR!"

A Hyper Beam suddenly shot upward from below—it was unmistakably the resurrected Salamence.

After revival, Salamence's power had further increased.

Although it was still at peak Champion, having died once caused the destructive power of its Hyper Beam to become noticeably stronger than before.

Metagross immediately used Psychic again, dragging the recently flung Hydreigon back in front of itself as a shield.

Salamence's Hyper Beam struck Hydreigon with a massive boom, and the terrifying piercing force blasted a huge hole straight through Hydreigon's body—the remaining force was casually blocked by Metagross with a single Bullet Punch.

"Gen~"

Gengar suddenly appeared behind the Master, slashing toward her heart with a Shadow Claw.

Screech!

But a black barrier instantly wrapped around the Master's body, and Gengar's Shadow Claw was unable to break through it.

"I've long been on guard against your tricks."

The Master sneered coldly. Thanks to the Demon God, she knew quite a bit about the strange abilities of Julian's shiny Gengar.

Seeing this, the peak Champion Dragonite guarding beside her immediately raised its claw and swiped toward Gengar.

"Gen~"

Gengar returned to Julian's side and reported what had just happened.

"That woman can't be measured by common sense. Go help Arcanine, Milotic, and Tyranitar," Julian said.

The failed assassination attempt didn't disappoint him much. After all, he hadn't really thought it would succeed from the start, but it was still necessary to give it a try.

Although Arcanine, Milotic, and Tyranitar had only recently broken through to the Champion tier, their strength was still extremely formidable—individually, they could defeat an ordinary mid-stage Champion in battle.

But now they were facing nine early-stage Champions, and unlike Kartana, who followed the assassin's path, they couldn't match that approach.

Kartana could one-shot a Hydreigon, and they could kill a Hydreigon too, but they couldn't do it in an instant.

That wasn't to say that Kartana was far stronger than them—it was simply a difference in what each Pokémon specialized in.

Kartana was like a high-burst assassin—high damage, short duration, and a glass cannon.

Arcanine and Tyranitar, on the other hand, were more like blood tanks, while Milotic resembled a mage.

"Arf!"

Arcanine heavily injured a Garchomp with Fire Blast, and in the next second, Milotic's Aqua Tail slammed into the Garchomp with a boom, finishing it off.

By this point, the nine early-stage Champions besieging them had all been killed once. And after revival, their strength had risen from early- to mid-stage Champion.

Their power had increased tremendously as they surrounded the trio once again.

Because they were puppets with no autonomous consciousness left, Milotic's charm was completely useless—otherwise, it might have produced unexpected results.

"Tar!"

Tyranitar stomped down hard, causing massive boulders to jut up from the ground.

"Tyr!"

The two opposing Tyranitar also used Stone Edge. With their now surging strength and a two-against-one advantage, their combined moves neutralized Tyranitar's attack.

BOOM!!

But the very next second, a blazing stream of fire slammed directly into the two Tyranitars, burning them to ashes within a few seconds.

"Tres!"

High in the air, Moltres spread its wings proudly.

The Flamethrower it had just used happened to trigger both the power multiplier of Tri Flame and Blaze Stone simultaneously—instantly increasing the attack's power sixfold.

"Dumb dog, can you not even handle this?"

Moltres taunted from the air, though its tone carried a hint of concern.

"Stupid bird, I don't need your worr—"

BOOM!

Arcanine had just begun to retort when a Dragon Pulse from a Dragonite slammed directly into Moltres's back.

Moltres was already being besieged by three mid- to late-stage Champions, and in the moment it helped Tyranitar break free, it got careless and was hit by the Dragonite.

Its body crashed violently toward the ground.

At the same time, a Garchomp leapt high into the air and lunged toward the falling Moltres.

"Luca!"

An Aura Sphere struck that Garchomp with pinpoint accuracy, temporarily averting Moltres's crisis.

Lucario stared intently at the opponents before it.

With its meticulous aura senses fully activated, it could see through all of their attacks.

At present, aside from Metagross, it was the only one holding the upper hand against the opponents in front of it.

It sidestepped an attack from a Goodra, and with a pivot of its feet and a bend of its body, it pressed an Aura Sphere directly onto the Goodra's head.

Because Goodra's body was coated in slime and protected by thick fat, it possessed tremendous resistance against Fighting-type moves.

And precisely because of this trait, all the opponents besieging Lucario were Goodra.

Without that natural resistance, Lucario would have already finished them all off.

BOOM!!

The Aura Sphere detonated directly on the Goodra's head.

The terrifying force blasted away the slime coating its body and sent it staggering backward uncontrollably.

Mega Punch!

Puchi! The overwhelming power pierced straight through the Goodra's skull.

"Milotic, head over to Lucario's side and use Scald—wash away all that slime covering their bodies!"

Julian's voice echoed inside Milotic's mind.

Since Gengar was already here, relying on its invisibility and ghostly abilities, it had helped Milotic kill three opponents.

And those three had died for the second time, so this time they didn't revive—they were well and truly dead now.

Hearing Julian's command, Milotic immediately made its way toward Lucario.
