However, what Bugsy didn't expect was that Ash didn't change the Pokémon this time.
Instead, he showed the mage bracelet on his left wrist.
The mage evolution stone belonging to Heracross on it lit up with a brilliant evolution light, echoing the Heracross in the field.
Then, in Bugsy's shocked eyes, Mega Heracross appeared in full posture.
The sharp horn and the bulging muscles of the arms gave people a sense of explosive absolute power.
Although Heracross was captured by Ash not too long ago, Ash didn't fall behind in its training at all.
It was basically trained according to the scale of the main Pokémon.
Of course, it was also very competitive and relied on perseverance to change its character in the original plot that regarded tree sap as more important than anything else.
Back to the topic, when Bugsy saw Heracross mage evolve, and felt its whole body exuding a much stronger aura than his Trump Card Pokémon Scyther, his heart was chilled!
Ash didn't even send out a third Pokémon, but only let Heracross evolve mage. When the level was almost a big realm away from his Trump Card Pokémon Scyther, Scyther's aura was at a disadvantage.
The problem of level difference seemed to be directly smoothed out or even surpassed by mage evolution.
Pokémon's hard power was not as good as Ash's, and his combat level as a Trainer was also severely crushed by Ash, so Bugsy really couldn't find any chance of winning.
"Heracross, the last Pin Missile, send it away!"
As expected, before he could fight Mega Heracross for a few rounds, Bugsy's Scyther was severely crushed by Ash's Mega Heracross and lost his combat ability.
"Scyther has lost his ability to fight, the winner of this battle is Ash, the challenger from Pallet Town~"!"
"Since all three of Bugsy's Pokémon have lost their ability to fight, the final winner of the gym challenge is Ash!"
Outside the field, Officer Jenny didn't care about being surprised, and quickly announced the result of the battle.
Then he looked at the Mega Heracross standing in the field, smiling and flattering Ash.
I didn't expect that the strength of Heracross would become so strong after Mega Evolution, worthy of being a Trainer suspected to be above Elite level
But such a powerful Trainer actually has to collect Badges to participate in the Silver Conference held in Johto Region this year. This is obviously extremely bad news for other players.
However, it is a great thing for the audience like them.
With Ash, the big shark, mixed into the fish pond, the highlights and viewing value of this year's Silver Conference will definitely be much stronger than in previous years.
Well, I hope that by then it will be Alliance selected to maintain order at the venue, so that you can feast your eyes.
If you are not selected, then just take a leave and go to watch, and see Miss Ping happily prepare for the holiday life in a few months before deciding.
"Come back, Scyther!"
With a lonely look, he put the Scyther who had lost his fighting ability back into the Poké Ball, and rubbed his cheeks hard with his hands, recovering from the failed Contest Condition.
Although he lost the Bug Type Pokémon civil war this time, he was completely defeated, not even his underwear was left.
But it was also an extremely precious experience for him to be able to fight with a powerful champion-level Trainer like Ash.
You know, the entire Johto Region Region has not yet had a champion-level Trainer, and the position of the Region Champion can be said to be vacant all year round.
Although the championship position of the neighboring Kanto Region is also vacant all year round, their situation is not the same as that of the Johto Region Region.
The four Elites in the Kanto Region are mainly too strong, and each of them has a champion-level level. No one can defeat the other three to be promoted. The Regional Champions, with checks and balances, will keep the Regional Champion position vacant.
As for their Johto Region, because of their lack of strength, it is better to leave this position vacant rather than to promote a Trainer with only Elite strength as the Regional Champion [to avoid being laughed at by Trainers from other Regions].
Bugsy has a hunch that if he can digest all the insights he gained from the battle with Ash today, he will definitely not be stopped from being promoted to Elite level in the future.
What will stop him from becoming an Elite Trainer at that time is Pokémon.
After all, there are too few Bug Type Pokémon with Elite talent potential, and it is extremely difficult to cultivate them, so he does not have much confidence.
It seems that in the future, the funds given by the Alliance will have to be allocated a little more to find high potential, especially young Bug Type Pokémon that are suspected to have master potential.
Poor Bugsy thought so in his heart, and it can be expected that in the next many years, the facilities of the Azalea Gym will be as simple as today, or even more simple.
Suppressing his thoughts, Bugsy took out a badge that looked a bit like a seven-spotted ladybug from his pocket and handed it to Ash.
'. "Ash, this is proof of defeating me, the Hive Badge, please be sure to accept it!"
When giving the Hive Badge, Ah Gan felt a little sigh in his heart
In the past, every time he gave badges to challengers, he always played the role of examiner and senior.
But today, when facing Ash, the situation of both parties was completely reversed, which made him feel inexplicably absurd.
By the way, Ash, such a strong trainer, actually has to participate in this year's Silver Conference?
For some reason, Ah Gan began to sympathize with all the trainers participating in the Silver Conference this year.
With Ash, a guy with abnormal strength, their best result may only be to compete for the runner-up.
With Ash's strength, if he can't win the championship, that would be a real joke.
"Thank you!"
Ash nodded, bit off the Hive Badge handed over by Bugsy and put it in the badge box.
[Ding, mission completed. Accept the request of Bugsy gym leader to fight Bug Type civil war with him and obtain Hive Badge Valley]
[Mission reward: 1 million points, top-quality Metal Coat (the power of Steel type skills of Pokémon carrying this item is increased by 50%)]
The item has been stored in the system space and can be taken out at any time.
The moment Ash took the Hive Badge from Bugsy, the system prompt of mission completion sounded in his mind.
The corresponding reward items were also distributed to the system space.
Ash once got the top-quality Metal Coat, but it was only used to evolve the giant Onix captured by Miachashan.
Now that he has challenged the gym and got the top-quality Metal Coat reward, Ash's mouth slightly raised, and Scyther's future path has become clearer!
