Chapter 4279 Gigantamax and vs. Mega Evolution!
Before challenging the Qibana, Mary naturally did her homework, especially on this ace aluminum steel dragon.
She investigated its information in detail and also found the latest evolutionary form discovered in the neighboring Padia region—the Aluminobridgeosaurus.
Since Duraludon still has the potential to evolve further, it means that it can carry Evolution Stones.
Both defenses have been greatly improved!
Thinking of this, Mary frowned—
Evolution Stones were originally intended to provide a safety net for Pokémon with lower base stats, serving as a basic guarantee.
As a result, you, with a base stat total of 535, which is higher than most Pokémon, can still use Evolution Stones!
"No wonder it's so tough; it even withstood close combat."
In the front row of the spectator area, Xiao Zhi also realized what was happening and muttered something while stroking his chin.
Speaking of which—
Is it possible to determine whether a Pokémon will have a new evolution form in the future by giving it an Evolution Stone?
The battle on the field continues.
The props were photographed, causing Chibana to frown. Had he been discovered after all?
So he stopped testing and put the Duraludon back into its Poké Ball.
The next moment, the Dynamax wristband on his wrist glowed red and connected to the Poké Ball.
The Poké Ball rapidly expanded, transforming into a massive sphere that required both hands to hold.
In an instant, the surrounding audience seats erupted in cheers!
"I'm coming!"
"Mr. Raihana's Dynamax!"
"Finally, I can see it!!"
Inside the boxing arena, the rousing beat of drums resounded.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
The rhythm built up layer by layer, igniting the audience's cheers and bringing the atmosphere to its peak.
Kibana grinned, lifted the gigantic Poké Ball with one hand, and threw it forward with a bold gesture.
"Go forth, aluminum-steel dragon! Show your new and majestic form!!"
Bang--!!
The red light fell.
A colossal object landed at one end of the arena.
The aluminum-steel dragon's body truly transformed into a silver-white skyscraper.
It is over thirty meters tall, with layers of metal walls that extend outwards, and even features partitions resembling glass windows.
The top is surrounded by the signature pinkish-purple clouds of Dynamax, slowly swirling around.
Strange metal limbs still extend from the bottom, supporting the ground.
The sense of oppression was completely incomparable to his previous nonchalant demeanor.
Giant Aluminum Steel Dragon!
The sheer size difference completely overwhelmed even the Mega Bandana thug, suppressing his aura.
Standing in front of the colossal aluminum steel dragon, I was completely enveloped by the shadow of the skyscraper.
With a wave of his arm, his voice even drowning out the cheers of the crowd, Qibana unleashed Duraludon's signature Gigantamax move:
"Now! Use Gigantamax Degradation!!"
"Aluminum-steel—!!"
The Gigantamax Duraludon let out a deep roar, and the entire arena seemed to tremble in response.
In the next instant, its entire body glowed with an enormous pinkish-purple energy, transforming into a raging energy hurricane.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The storm spread extremely quickly and over an exaggeratedly large area.
In the blink of an eye, it completely enveloped the area where the mega bandana thug was located.
This level of attack is impossible to dodge or counter normally.
Mary could only grit her teeth and try:
"Dig a tunnel!!"
The mega bandana thug finally loosened his hands in his pockets and tried to burrow underground to avoid danger.
However, it didn't work!
The pinkish-purple energy storm didn't just sweep across the surface; it affected even the underground. Boom! ...
A moment later, the figure of the mega-banded thug was violently shaken out, struck and swept up by the energy hurricane, and then fell heavily to the ground.
His body was still wreathed in residual pinkish-purple energy.
Finally, it turned into a weakened blue light, and its momentum suddenly diminished considerably.
"Is this Gigantamax decay?"
Mary's forehead was already sweating; she had only seen related descriptions online before.
Aside from dealing significant damage, it doesn't actually reduce any abilities.
The weakening blue light just now reduced the PP value of all of the bandana thug's moves.
(P.S.: Normal Gigantamax Deterioration only reduces one move, but it felt a bit weak, so I've modified it to reduce all moves.)
If you use Gigantamax Deteriorate three times in a row, your PP will be almost zero for high-power moves like Close Combat and Double Headbutt, making them unusable.
However, this is also an excellent opportunity for a counterattack—
After its size increased, the aluminum steel dragon's imposing presence was indeed terrifying, but its flexibility also dropped to zero.
Now it is a tall metal building standing at one end of the stadium, and it cannot be moved.
Then, that move can be used!
Mary's eyes sharpened, and she immediately launched an attack:
"Now's your chance, a flying knee kick!!"
There's absolutely no need to worry about any issues with missing attacks and dealing damage!
The mega-banded thug pushed himself up from the ground, a smirk playing on his lips, and his arrogant expression returned.
"Thug—!"
It leaped forward with power from its legs, its white molted skin taut and springing back like a spring, its speed increasing with each dash.
Finally, he leaped high into the air, his knees covered in a deep orange light, and he crashed forward like a cannonball!
Clang!
The flying knee kick slammed into the Super Gigascale Steel Dragon, roughly at the fifth-floor window!
A deafening metallic explosion echoed throughout the venue, and the over 30-meter-tall "skyscraper" tilted backward, its silvery-white structure appearing as if it might collapse at any moment.
The effect is outstanding!
Cibaner did not back down either, swinging his arm again:
"Gigantamax Deterioration!!"
The Gigantamax Aluminosi roared in a deep voice, its massive, building-sized body once again unleashing pinkish-purple Gigantamax energy.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
A black and purple energy hurricane swept across the entire area, once again engulfing the Mega Bandana thug.
"Thug!"
It was forcibly lifted into the air by the storm, as if it had been thrown into a giant turbine.
The combined impact of the fierce hurricane and the weakening effect of degradation and decay puts a double burden on you.
Boom-!
Half a minute later, the mega-banded thug crashed back to the ground, looking disheveled.
Mary's face was tense, but she resolutely continued her attack:
"Flying knee kick!!"
The mega-banded thug gritted his teeth and stood up. Although his imposing manner had greatly diminished, his eyes became even fiercer.
The white molted skin tightened again and leaped high once more.
The orange light on his knees deepened, and his goal became even higher—
This time, they've set their sights on the tenth floor of the colossal aluminum steel dragon!
Clang!
Another heavy explosion rang out, the metal building shook violently, and obvious dents appeared on the silver-white exterior walls.
Both sides completely abandoned defense and focused solely on offense!
The cheers from the stands reached their peak, and the cheers and applause throughout the entire Hammerlocke Arena reached a climax along with the collision of the two Pokémon.
In the front row, Ash and Yuuji were both somewhat stunned.
It must be said that Dynamaxing essentially eliminates the skill required for strategic battles.
But the scene was truly breathtaking! (End of Chapter)
