Chapter 4278 The Rules of Mega Evolution!
Chapter 4278 The Rules of Mega Evolution!
Ash was watching intently from the front row of the stands when he suddenly blinked.
"Huh, aren't you going to use Dynamax once?"
It's important to know that the rules for the Galar Gym Challenge are much more lenient than those for the World Championships.
After all, the latter's contestants come from all over the world, and there are all sorts of fancy battle mechanisms.
Therefore, the restrictions for the World Championships are—
All battle mechanics combined can only be used once!
The dojo challenge is different.
Since the participants were mostly local trainers from Galar, the rule was changed to "Dynamax can only be used once," without any additional restrictions on the mechanics of other regions.
In theory, if he were to challenge Raihan, he could Mega Evolve first and then unleash several Z-Moves in succession.
Ash scratched his wrist; his Keystone Bracelet was still with Mary.
He originally thought that Marie would have Grimmsnarl use Gigantamax, and then Bandana would Mega Evolve.
Does this mean Mary is going for a fair and head-on confrontation?
At one end of the arena, Marie's last Pokémon automatically popped out due to the effect of "speaking out in a tough way".
boom!
As the red light faded, a somewhat nonchalant-looking figure appeared on the field.
He appeared somewhat thin, with hair on his head resembling a red rooster's comb, and his eyes drooped, looking as if he hadn't woken up yet.
He held the loose, flaky skin in his hands, which resembled pants.
Headscarf thug!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!
As soon as it appeared, several sharp rocks rushed towards it from all around the arena.
Invisible Rock!
This is the trap left by the original sand snake python.
Before Mary could even give any instructions, the hooded thug snorted and pulled up his skinned pants with both hands.
His body then naturally shrank downwards.
boom! boom! boom!
All the invisible rock blades landed on that flexible, molted skin and bounced off without causing any damage.
The final battle has officially begun!
This time, Mary didn't try anything further and simply placed her finger on the keystone bracelet that Ash had lent her.
Mega Evolution should be used as soon as it appears!
"Headband thug, Mega Evolution!"
In an instant, the bandana-wearing thug was enveloped in a dazzling light.
The megastone in the molting pouch lit up simultaneously, enveloping the entire body, and a curved beam of energy shot out, connecting with the light of the keystone on Mary's wrist.
boom--!
As the light film burst open, it revealed a completely new look!
The turban-wearing thug was noticeably taller, but still had a slender build.
The original yellowish-brown skin has turned pure white after shedding.
The upper body was transformed into a hooded cape, pressing down the now-wider red crown, like adding a wisp of flamboyant bangs.
The molted skin on the lower body turned into loose white trousers that wouldn't fall off even without being held by hand.
Of course, the hooded thug still had his hands in his pockets.
No other reason, he's just handsome!
Mega bandana thug makes his appearance!
Ash was watching the game with great interest from the front row of the stands.
"Is this what a mega bandana thug is like?"
The turbaned thug looked like just a lazy, listless delinquent.
After Mega Evolution, it becomes more like a...
A cocky, street-smart thug?
With a wide grin, droopy eyelids, and a crooked posture, it looked like he might kick over a passerby's stall as he walked by.
As for its characteristics, it's not yet clear.
On the field, Cibana looked at the opponent's new posture with a hint of surprise.
"Mega evolution?"
He could clearly sense that the hooded thug's aura was much stronger than before.
So Cibana swung his arm and launched the first attack:
"Aluminum-steel dragon, use the cannon beam!"
The aluminum-steel dragon opened its mouth wide, and silvery-white energy rapidly gathered.
Whoosh!
The steel-attribute beam cannon shot out straight, with considerable power!
Praise +1, harsh words -1, at this moment Duraludon's Special Attack is at its normal level.
Mary didn't let the hooded thug take the hit directly, and calmly said:
"I see through you!" The mega-banded thug still had his hands in his pockets.
Only when the cannon beam was close did it tilt its body, as if it had seen the trajectory in advance, and lightly dodge the attack.
A silvery-white beam swept past its shoulder and slammed into the ground behind it.
Mary stared intently at the Aluminum Steel Dragon, contemplating which move to use—
Flying knee kicks are unusable!
The Aluminum Steel Dragon is not slow, and she had already researched Qibana's information before the challenge. His Aluminum Steel Dragon's characteristic is Light Metal.
Its actual weight is probably less than 20kg, which is about the weight of three Pikachu.
The lightweight aluminum-steel dragon is far more agile than it appears!
If you use a flying knee kick, you'll miss in a heartbeat and end up hitting yourself.
Mary quickly made a judgment:
"In that case, let's use close combat!"
The mega-banded thug, with a stern face, finally pulled his hands out of his pockets, pushed off with his feet, and his figure shot out!
Qibana's expression softened; with the speed of the Aluminum Steel Dragon, it should be able to dodge it.
However, in the next instant, the white peeling skin on the lower half of the bandana thug's body suddenly tightened and bounced up like a trampoline compressed to its limit!
Whoosh—!
Its speed increased again instantly, and in the blink of an eye, it had already closed in on the aluminum-steel dragon.
"Mix it all!!"
The hooded thug unleashed a barrage of punches, knee strikes, and kicks, his movements rapid and decisive, without a single unnecessary flourish.
boom! boom! boom!
A series of crisp metallic popping sounds rang out.
The aluminum-steel dragon's light metal body was forced to retreat repeatedly, and finally its entire body was blasted away, sliding a long distance on the ground.
The effect is outstanding!
"Ok?"
However, Mary did not relax; instead, she frowned.
It seems the other party managed to withstand it?
The aluminum-steel dragon in the distance slowly rose up, not having been knocked down on the spot.
That shouldn't be happening!
The current power of the Mega Bandana thug is far beyond what a normal Aluminum Steel Dragon could withstand!
Soon, as if she had thought of something, her eyes sharpened.
"Get closer to it!"
The mega-banded thug pressed down on him again.
A white molt bounced beneath him, and he sprinted back at an extremely strange rhythm, his face pressed against hers once more.
Cibana immediately shouted:
"Use a poaching attack!"
The aluminum-steel dragon steadied itself, and its metallic body immediately retaliated, preparing to pin the bandana-wearing thug to the ground.
However, after Mega Evolution, the Bandana Stooge's reaction speed was greatly improved.
With a twist of its feet, it shifted its body almost touching the aluminum-steel dragon's body.
The attack missed!
Mary seized the opportunity and quickly shouted:
"Now! Smash it down!"
The mega-banded thug slapped her across the face.
Clang!
The palm struck the back of the aluminum-steel dragon's head solidly, producing another crisp metallic clang.
Because the aluminum-steel dragon was too light, its entire body was slapped off and fell to the ground.
The attack didn't do much damage, but something was knocked off its body.
Gudong!
A deep purple stone fell from the side of the aluminum-steel dragon. Upon seeing it, Mary curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a smile that she had expected.
"really."
It's an Evolution Stone! (End of Chapter)
