Chapter 323 MEGA Evolution, Revealing its True Form, the Power of the Dark Dragon!
"Sizzle—" The collision of lightning and water sent golden bolts of lightning and azure water flying!
"It even knows Thunder Punch! This Charizard has so many moves!" Lorelei exclaimed once again. Charizard hadn't shown Thunder Punch during the previous battle.
Judging from the speed and accuracy with which Charizard unleashes Thunder Punch, it doesn't seem like it just learned it; rather, it has already honed it to perfection. Where does it find so much time to train its moves, its six attributes, and its own level?
It's not that Pokémon can't develop in all aspects, but that all-round development takes time. What Ash lacks most is time. It's already incredible that he was able to train a Pokémon like this in just over half a year. But Ash has more than one Pokémon like this!
Thunder Punch and Shell Blade collided, and the two sides were evenly matched once again. The power of lightning is superior to the power of water, but Cloyster is ultimately a level higher. In addition, its water-type moves are its STAB moves, so even if it is super effective against lightning, it can turn the tables and suppress the opponent.
However, Charizard had specifically practiced Thunder Punch to counter Water-type Pokémon and was highly proficient in it, so the two ended up in a draw—no, to say a draw, Charizard was actually at a slight disadvantage.
If you look closely, you can see some marks on Charizard's fists that look like they were made by sharp blades; those were caused by the water flow from the shell blades.
This shows that Charizard's Thunder Punch failed to completely block Cloyster's Shell Blade.
In reality, Charizard cannot directly confront Cloyster without using Fire-type moves. If Charizard were to reach the Champion rank through proper means, it would not be at a disadvantage in a head-on confrontation, even if it used a non-SATK move like Thunder Punch, and might even be stronger than its opponent!
Because Charizard's attack and special attack are both genuine S-rank.
However, Charizard only reached the beginner champion level because of Ash's help. Let alone fighting against opponents of higher levels, if it weren't for the fact that four of its stats were S-rank, Charizard probably wouldn't even be able to reach the beginner champion level.
A level that is forcibly raised will never truly belong to you. In the past, you could control the levels such as Elite, Professional, and Dojo immediately after raising them, but when you reach the Champion level, the difference in energy levels is not insignificant.
Even though Ash used Aura Fusion multiple times to help Charizard adapt to the Champion's power after Charizard was upgraded to Champion level, Charizard still had a hard time controlling this energy. It is already quite an achievement that it can barely exert the strength of a beginner Champion.
If you combine it with the divine power of the Holy Flame, you can surpass the strength of a beginner champion, but you'll be somewhat inferior when using other skills.
In addition, Cloyster's defense is known to be very strong, and Lorelei made Cloyster use its shell-shrinking ability once for defense, which is extremely disadvantageous to Charizard in close combat.
The best option is to use ranged fire attacks to engage in a retreat tactic with the opponent. After all, Cloyster's attributes are ice and water, and while fire-attribute skills are not extremely effective against Cloyster, they are not ineffective either.
But Ash and Charizard didn't want to do that. Close combat was their style, and if they abandoned that and kept using kiting tactics, they felt that even if they won, it wouldn't be satisfying.
"Is everything alright, Charizard?"
"roar!!"
"Very good, this is the spirit! Let Lorelei witness our full power!!" Ash crossed his arms in front of him, and the Key Stone on his wrist shone with dazzling light.
Charizard, Mega Evolution!!!
Kona: !!!
Charizard's Mega Evolution? When did Ash get a new evolution stone? And it's for Charizard.
With the advent of Mega Evolution, a craze for finding Key Stones and Mega Stones has been sparked. Everyone knows the prerequisites for Mega Evolution, and the price of a Mega Stone has skyrocketed. Key Stones are even rarer than Mega Stones, and their price is only higher.
Because of the MEGA evolution craze that swept the nation, many Pokémon evolution stones have been discovered, such as the Hoenn starter Pokémon, the Kalos starter Pokémon, Hawlucha, Metagross, and so on.
However, there wasn't a single Charizard evolution stone among them!
Charizard's cool appearance, ease of acquisition, and simple training have made it a favorite among many. Furthermore, research indicates that Charizard possesses latent Mega Evolution genes, making it undeniably capable of Mega Evolution.
evolution.
However, with such a large number of people searching, it is very strange that no one has found a MEGA evolution stone related to Charizard.
Furthermore, research suggests that Charizard's evolutionary path appears to have been more than one —
There are two types of Mega Evolution, and apart from Charizard, it seems that no other Pokémon has ever had one. At least, none have been discovered yet. So, if anyone can find the evolution stone of such a special and powerful Pokémon as soon as possible, they will not only become famous, but they will also become a super rich person as long as they sell the evolution stone!
This type of evolution stone, which has never appeared before, sells for at least several times the price of other evolution stones!
Even so, no evolution stones for Charizard have appeared yet, not even a single type.
Ash actually had it! He's truly amazing!
As the light enveloped Charizard, its shape changed within the light. The next second, the rainbow light surrounding Charizard shattered, and a completely new form of Charizard appeared before everyone!
The Dark Dragon – Charizard X!
Its original orange-red body turned completely black, its white belly turned blue, its wings on its back became irregularly serrated, and four sharp protrusions like fangs grew on the Charizard's arms. Blue flames like fangs shone from its mouth, making it look even more majestic and imposing than the original Charizard!
Behind its long tail, the red flames have turned blue. This is due to the change in flame color caused by the increase in flame temperature. Infernape also turns the red flames into blue flames when using Flare Blitz, but now that Charizard has Mega Evolved, its normal flames can already reach the blue level.
"Is this Charizard's Mega Evolution? The change in appearance is really big, and it's become much cooler. Ash, when did you get the Mega Stone for Charizard?" Lorelei nodded and praised Charizard's appearance, then asked with some curiosity.
"I found this on the Orange Islands, on a deserted island. I guess I was lucky," Ash replied with a grin.
He didn't deceive Cona, he just concealed a few details.
Every time Ash arrives at a deserted island, he uses his Aura to scan the entire island. Of course, he can't scan the entire island directly because of the range that his Aura can cover, but he can scan the whole island by just wandering around.
If there are any places on the island that contain special energy, you can find them by scanning with waveguide power.
So for Ash, the deserted island was like an untapped treasure trove. On the deserted island, Ash found many natural minerals, herbs, and other things that were very beneficial to Pokémon.
The Mega Stone on Charizard was also found on one of the deserted islands, and coincidentally, it was even an X-Charizard!
This world doesn't really understand the two forms of Charizard; it has only detected that there are two changeable directions in Charizard's gene chain. But in reality, the two forms of Charizard represent two different growth paths.
Charizard X, the evolution Ash has evolved into, is a hybrid of physical and special attack, but with the Hard Claws ability, physical attack is slightly better.
Charizard Y, on the other hand, has an explosive increase in Special Attack, and with the ability Solar Dawn, it can be said that it has brought the power of the Fire-type Special Attack to its extreme!
There's no inherent superiority of one form over the other; it depends on the method of nurturing and the choice of the more suitable evolutionary path, assuming there's a choice at all.
Ash's Charizard had already developed towards physical attack before finding the Charizard X-stone. After Mega Evolution, it was like icing on the cake, completely making up for Charizard's weakness of insufficient attack stat.
X-Charizard may not be the strongest Charizard form, but it is definitely the most suitable Charizard form for Ash!
Not only does it add the Dragon type to the already Dragon-type Charizard, but it also has the Hard Claw ability, which is very suitable for close combat. All in all, it can increase the overall strength of Charizard by more than double!
"What a cool Charizard!!! Is this Charizard's Mega Evolution? It's so awesome!"
"Wow! The world's first Mega Charizard! Even Leon's Charizard can't Mega Evolve yet!"
"That imposing appearance, that jet-black skin, those dazzling flames—I've decided, I'm going to raise a Charizard too! What boy wouldn't be mesmerized by its looks!"
"Exactly! Strength can be improved through training, but looking good is for life. Just for its appearance, even if this form of Charizard is trash, I'd still train one!!"
"Hey you guys, stop dreaming! Raising a Charizard?! ¥#@#&**&———— Do you even think you can raise one? Stop spouting nonsense! Forget about the Mega Evolution Stone for Charizard, let me see your Key Stones first!"
'
The appearance of Charizard X caused a stir among the surrounding audience. Some praised Charizard's coolness, while others set a goal in their hearts to catch a Charizard in the future.
It might be difficult to judge whether the X-sprayer or the Y-sprayer is stronger or weaker, but if we're talking about which one looks cooler, the former definitely beats the latter, without a doubt.
Whether you're a boy or a girl, you'd definitely choose the X-Flagship in terms of appearance. Its jet-black body paired with its deep blue flames is simply irresistible. Its looks are among the best of all Pokémon!
Therefore, when Charizard X first appeared in front of everyone, it immediately attracted countless fans. Many people wished they could catch a Charmander or even a Charizard right now and then Mega Evolve it into Black Dragon!
However, many people immediately poured cold water on the idea, pointing out that there is only one Mega Evolution Stone for Charizard currently available on the market, and that is Ash, who is currently on the field!
Aside from Ash, no one else has yet possessed a Charizard Mega Stone. And even if someone did, so what? The rarity of Mega Stones is beyond question. Even the most common Mega Stone, like the Beedrill kind, can fetch an astronomical price. As for a Charizard Mega Stone—tsk tsk, expensive, needless to say!
So the idea is nice, but reality is cruel. To obtain a Mega Stone for Charizard, you have to consider your financial resources or luck. If you don't even have a Key Stone, then you can forget about dreaming about it.
"A completely new Charizard! The aura it exudes is entirely different. It seems this is the big gift you prepared for me, Ash." Lorelei's wine-red eyes narrowed slightly as she carefully examined Charizard X. With her keen eye, she could tell that the evolved Charizard had undergone a complete transformation.
The somewhat balanced battle on the field may be disrupted.
"That's right, this is the last resort that Charizard and I have prepared for this battle. Charizard and I will take victory without hesitation. Charizard, use Dragon Claw!!" Ash shouted excitedly, waving his hand.
"Roar!!" The Charizard spread its arms and roared to the sky, revealing a pair of long, emerald-green claws!
This time, the dragon claw was more solid, sharper, and stronger than the previous one!
Immediately afterwards, Charizard flapped its wings and shot out like an arrow, arriving in front of Cloyster in the blink of an eye!
"Protect!!" Charizard's speed surprised Lorelei. After Mega Evolution, its already fast speed became even faster, almost giving her no time to react.
"Buzz—!"
A pale blue, transparent barrier unfolded once more in front of Cloyster, and Charizard's claws struck it hard from behind!
"Bang!!" Ripples appeared on the barrier, and the powerful reaction force acted on Charizard's claws, causing Charizard to pause in its forward charge.
This time, however, the Charizard was not thrown off. Instead, it clenched its teeth, its face contorted in a ferocious expression, and continued to exert its strength, its single claw striking the barrier with a creaking sound.
"Bang!!" In the end, the dragon claw was still repelled, but Lorelei's face showed no joy, because from the beginning, Charizard had only used one arm, and the other arm was waiting for this moment!
"Go, Charizard!!"
"Roar!!" With Charizard's roar, another dragon claw slammed into the already dim blue barrier!
"Bang!!" The shield shattered!
"Sizzle!" A tooth-grinding sound rang out as the Spiny Shell was struck squarely by the dragon's claws, leaving three deep scratch marks on its body!
