Chapitre 182: 182. Jackson
"Electabuzz, thank you, you did your best!"
With only her last Pokémon left, and facing Rhydon who had perfectly restrained himself and was almost perfectly healthy, Macy still chose to not give up, so she took out her last Poké Ball.
"I will never give up, please, Quilava!"
Obviously, this Quilava is Macy's Starter Pokémon, her current strongest Pokémon and the one she trusts the most. At least she wants to defeat this Rhydon, this is what Macy's only thought at this moment!
Her level is indeed far behind Ash, but she has also worked hard to collect all the eight required Gym Badges and come here to participate in the Silver Conference, so she must not give up and must fight until the last moment because that is her Pokémon Way!
Ash could also understand her thoughts, so he did not choose to replace his Rhydon, "Macy, let's fight a final battle without any regrets! Rhydon, you know what to do!"
Many large chunks of rocks were smashed by Rhydon again, but Quilava was obviously much faster than Slugma and Electabuzz.
"Quilava, use Flame Wheel after avoiding those rocks!"
This is the signature move of the Cyndaquil Evolution Line. After all, they can easily curl up their bodies into a ball and roll around. Of course, Ash's Typhlosion has learned much more stronger skills under him now.
All those rocks were avoided by Macy's Quilava. The fireball hit Rhydon directly, and the high temperature also slightly gave a trace of black on his rock armor.
But neither Ash nor his Rhydon took this attack seriously at all. Instead of their body burning, their fighting spirit was burning, "Hammer Arm!"
This is one of the strongest move of the Fighting-type, and its power was obviously very terrifying. This is an attack that Ash specially trained hard with Rhydon for his evolution.
Rhydon's evolved Rhyperior has very strong arms with terrifying power!
BOOM!
Rhydon hist the ground hard where Quilava was standing. The flames dissipated and heavy dust rose on the field because of the heavy impact. This blow was truly terrifying!
"Quilava!"
Macy screamed, but Quilava had already lost her ability to fight anymore!
"The arm hammer skill is showing its power. This move is really amazing. Trainer Ash's Rhydon defeated the three Pokémon of Trainer Macy without looking the slightest bit of injury!
This is something that I have never witnessed in my 10 years of being a professional commentator here!"
"ROAR!"
Rhydon roared to the high heavens. Training with Ash and all of his other Pokémon's, especially his Tyranitar, made him become this strong!
Ash took him back to his Poké Ball and said, "It's time for you to evolve!"
"Ash, thank you, you are really strong! Thank you for fighting with me until the end!" Macy came to Ash to show how much she was convinced by his strength.
According to the rules of the preliminaries, a victory over one of their opponents will get 3 points, a defeat will get no points, and a draw will get 1 point each. When the three battles are over, the person with the highest cumulative point will be able to enter the next round of the tournament.
Now, Ash had already got his first 3 points. Next, it's time to watch Macy's battle with another Trainer from Group H.
In the second round of the Silver Conference Group H in the preliminaries, the one who entered after Macy was...
Of course, Ash and his team were paying close attention to this battle. After all, Macy's opponent would have a battle with Ash later on.
Unexpectedly, this young man actually appeared in front of the giant live broadcast camera, wearing a cape and making a high-profile appearance, "Jackson from New Bark Town is here!"
This guy is honestly such a joke.
Ash hopes that during the battle, his IQ will not be lowered by this guy.
Form what Ash saw, it was pretty obvious that this Vincent boy is really a bit too stubborn and also to full of himself for his own good. He actually did send out a full Water-type team against Macy. He sent out a Golduck, a Quagsire and a Poliwhirl as his three registered Pokémon's.
But this time, Macy's team did not have an Electabuzz, but instead she replaced him with a Starmie, perhaps to a stop her opponent from bringing out a Ground-type or Rock-type Pokémon.
As Ash said, she just has a preference for the Fire-type.
After her battle with Ash, her Slugma evolved into a Magcargo. After a long battle, both sides only had their last Pokémon left with them.
Macy's Quilava versus Jackson's Poliwhirl!
"Okay, I'm going to work hard and burn it out till the end! Quilava, use Flamethrower!" Although facing a full Water-type team, Macy was still in her very high-spirited form.
"It's not that simple!" Jackson on the opposite side thought he looked very handsome wearing a cape, but when he was about to give the order, he accidentally stepped on the cape and fell to the ground.
His Poliwhirl looked back at Jackson to make sure that he is okay, no longer even caring about Quilava's attack!
How could Quilava and Macy not use such a gift? The Flamethrower hit the Poliwhirl against the wall, and it immediately lost its ability to fight.
Only then did Jackson react, but he had already lost the first round of the preliminaries at that point!
"Poliwhirl lost its ability to fight, Quilava won this battle, so the winner is Macy from Mahogany Town!"
In this way, Ash and Macy each scored 3 points. In the next match between Ash and Jackson, even if it is a draw, Ash will still successfully enter the next round.
However, Ash smiled and said, "How can there be a draw? I will definitely win against this guy!"
Back at the Pokémon Center, Ash happened to see Jackson talking on the phone with Professor Elm.
"Uncle Elm!" Molly approached Professor Elm and greeted him happily.
Seeing Molly, Professor Elm immediately smiled and said, "Well if it isn't Molly, how have you been? Have you eaten anything yet?"
"I'm doing perfectly fine. Big Brother just bought me a very tasty sandwich!" Molly said with a smile, obviously very happy after her lunch.
Seeing Molly's happy look, Professor Elm also smiled and said, "By the way, Molly, your dad just contacted me and said that he is on his way to Silver Town!"
"Is Daddy really coming over?" Molly was pleasantly surprised. She hadn't seen her father for a long time now and deeply missed him everyday.
"Ash, are you there too?" Professor Elm called over.
Ash came over quickly.
"Ash, Ranger Mason said that Larvitar and Tyranitar are now living happily in Mt. Silver. This is all due to your hard work, thank you for that!" Professor Elm and Professor Oak are both very thankful to Ash about this.
Jackson recognized at a glance that this was the opponent taht he was going to fight against next, "It's you! You are Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town. I have heard the Professor mention you before, you must be powerful! Oh, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Jackson and I'm from New Bark Town!"
Ash shook hands gently with Jackson, "Nice to meet you. So it looks like you too know Professor Elm!"
"I got my Starter Chikorita from Professor Elm when I went on my journey!" Judging from his age, he should be Casey's senior. Even though they are of different years, Jackson was unable to participate in the last Silver Conference because he forgot to sign up.
And now he was still very unlucky. He had already lost the first match in the preliminaries and had to battle Ash of all people next.
Professor Elm really did feel bad for Jackson knowing that he could defeat Ash by any way.
"I heard that your Chikorita has evolved into a Meganium!" Professor Elm revealed Jackson's information unceremoniously to Ash.
"Then how come you didn't use it just now?" Misty asked very confused. If Meganium was used, it wouldn't be so hard to fight against that Starmie.
"Of course you didn't see it. I wanted to save my strength for the next round of the tournament, so I didn't use my Meganium. That's why I lost the battle!" Jackson's words made Ash not know how to think anymore.
The reason why you lost the battle was that you were too high-profile and too flashy. Why did you want to put on such a stupid cape during the battle in the first place, and also performe those very unnecessary actions when giving orders?
