Kapitel 137: 137. VS. Pryce
My class has begun so I was unable to make a chapter during the day, so here it is now.
————————————————————
"Piloswine! My dear Piloswine! You really did come to pick herbs for me. I'm such a fool."
When Pryce finally realized his mistakes over the years, if Ash hadn't woken him up today, he would still have stubbornly believed that he had been betrayed by his most trusted partner!
He couldn't help but kneel in front of Piloswine, "I'm sorry, Piloswine, I was a big fool! That's why I misunderstood that you betrayed me! Forgive me, Piloswine!"
Before repenting, Piloswine still needs to be rescued from the ice.
"Gyarados, come on out!"
The restored red Gyarados appeared in front of Pryce, but he was a little shocked. "Is this the red Gyarados that wreaked havoc in the Lake of Rage yesterday?"
"Gyarados, use Scald!" Ash didn't immediately answer his question.
Compared to using flames to melt the ice, using Scald is obviously gentler on Piloswine. Flame itself is harmful to Piloswine, and now Piloswine can no longer withstand so much damage after being stuck in teh ice for so long.
Scald's is powerful because it sprays boiling hot water at the target. Although it is a Water-type skill, it has a temperature that can sometimes cause the opponent to have a burn. Another thing is that Pokémon that are in the frozen will be released from it after being hit.
Piloswine was quickly rescued from the huge block of ice, but he still couldn't move.
"Pikachu, use Thunder Shock on it!" Ash has already ordered his Pikachu to use Thunder Shock for first aid more than once on his journey.
Under Pikachu's Thunder Shock, Piloswine was finally awakened from its long and deep slumber.
Even after all these year, he still remembers Pryce's smell, meaning it also recognizes Pryce as its Trainer after so long!
After a night's rest in Pokémon, Ash finally got his chance to fight an Official Gym Challenge!
Pryce has been with Piloswine since he rescued it, hoping to make up for the shortcomings over all those years. It can be seen that although it has been a long time, the bond between Pryce and this Piloswine is still very high, something he wants to accomplish with all of his Pokémon's.
"This is the battle venue of the Mahogany Town Gym!"
After Ash and his party arrived, they were warmly welcomed by Pryce and Sheila. Pryce had a smile on his face again after so long, he was no longer the strange old man who was unsmiling.
This is mainly an Ice-type battle venue. The venue is covered with a thick layer of ice, and there are many icicles placed irregularly on the field. There is only a small pool in the center of the venue, which can be used as a place for Water-type Pokémon to stay.
How to fight in such a battle field is the first question that the challengers who come to the Mahogany Town Gym must think about.
Aunt Sheila serves as the referee, which means she is actually an Official Referee certified by the Johto Region Pokémon Alliance.
"Then the Official Gym Battle begins now, with only two Pokémon being used by each of the two Trainers!"
According to the rules of a Gym Battle, Gym Trainer Pryce must be the first to send out Pokémon, so he threw out his Poké Ball.
"Go, Dewgong!"
This Dewgong should have been Pryce's previous Trump Card after he lost his Piloswine. Now that his Piloswine is back, he has already become a part of the starting lineup of Pryce! As a Water-type and Ice-type, Dewgong quickly moved to the pool in the center of the field as soon as he comes out of his Poke Ball. In that place, if he wants to attack it, it will more difficult than if it was on land or the ice in thsi case.
Not to be outdone, Ash said, "Stand by for battle, Tyrouge!"
It's Ash's Tyrouge against Pryces Dewgong again, but this time in such an ice field which heavily helps Pryces Dewgong in how he moves and how strong he is. How Tyrouge defeats this Dewgong again all depends on Ash's strategy!
"Ash, I do apologize for what I said before, but you can never win with just passion alone! You also need the power to back it up!" Pryce thought that Ash was just showing off and deliberately used his Tyrouge to fight Dewgong again without analyzing the current situation!
However, Ash is no longer the past Ash who would most likely have done that!
Ash sent out his Tyrouge because of his Fighting- type, which has super effective on Pryces Dewgong, and he can also move much easier than his other Pokémon's in this ice field.
"Tyrouge, use Mind Reader!"
Seeing this, Pryce smiled as if he expected this, "Dewgong, use Ice Beam!"
This time the Ice Beam was much faster than the one in the previous battle, but Tyrouge had already dodged to the side before the Ice Bema even left Dewgongs mouth!
In front of Pryce and his Dewgong's eyes, Tyrouge suddenly disappeared.
"Double Team!"
Dozens of Tyrouges suddenly ran out from behind an icicle and surrounded the entire pool area in the middle!
"Pryce, do you have a way to detect my Tyrouges movements?" Ash smiled confidently. Previously, Pryce said that he must maintain certain boundaries with his Pokémon. Otherwise, he will not be able to see the actual battle clearly because of his feelings for his Pokémon and the repercussions it comes with.
Now, Ash challenged Pryce in front of him in his own game!
"Dewgong, use Aurora Beam on all the Tyrouges!"
Dewgong suddenly splashed out of the water, and the amazingly powerful Aurora Beam did hit the Tyrouges, but the clones quickly reappeared after disappearing, and Pryce was unable to guess Tyrouges movements!
Ash was ordering his Tyrouge to slowly chip the health of Pryces Dewgong until he saw his golden opportunity.
"The final blow, High Jump Kick!"
Now that Tyrouge was leaping in the air, it was Ash's best opportunity to attack. He immediately ordered his Tyrouge to launch his strongest attacking move and pushed Dewgong away with one kick.
"Dewgong loses the ability to fight, Tyrouge wins this battle!"
Ash patted his Tyrouges head gently and said, "I'll leave it to you to try in the next game too, but don't take it too seriously or you might get injured in the middle of it."
Tyrouge nodded sharply to what his Trainer said, after all he too knew this.
"Then this is my second Pokémon!" Pryce threw out his second Poké Ball.
As expected, it was his Piloswine. It has the highest Bond Value with Pryce, and it is also the easiest to cooperate with even after all these years of not being together.
Sure enough, as soon as Piloswine came out, Pryce seemed to be several years younger, and his whole demeanor was completely different from what Ash previously saw.
"Piloswine, thank you for fighting along my side even after all those years! Now, use Blizzard!"
A very cold wind began blowing throughout the ice venue, mixed with solid ice chunks, and the chill was overwhelming! This freezing air instantly froze the central pool into ice, turning the venue completely into an ice surface.
Tyrouge put his hands in front of him, and soon his arms were covered with a layer of frost, he was about to freeze from the Blizzard!
"Move away!"
Ash did not issue a attack order this time, Tyrouge still listened to him in the middle of this powerful Blizzard!
It began to jump on its toes on the ice, bent over, looking directly at Piloswine in front of it, and kept making punching movements with its hands!
It let out a long breath, melted the snow and ice that fell on him with the constant movement, and then took the initiative to rush towards the Piloswine.
When encountering an enemy, you must draw your weapon!
When we meet on a narrow road, the braver one wins!
The Fighting-type is the type that is truly designed for fighting!
These words from Ash kept ringing in Tyrouges ears. It moved its body, pushing forward against the Blizzard, and then came to the front of Piloswine!
"Piloswine, use the Take Down!"
"Tyrouge, use Karate Chop!"
In that Blizzard, Piloswine and Tyrouges moves suddenly collided fiercely!
Tyrouge, who was too small, was knocked away directly, but Piloswine's huge body was also kicked back several meters!
"Tyrouge loses the ability to fight, Piloswine wins this battle!"
