The soul penetrates Xiaozhi and destroys Gou Hao at the beginning

Chapter 1172 Gyarados vs Lucario

"Ugh!"

With a roar, the red Gyarados appeared on the field.

At the same time, the Intimidation feature is activated, reducing Lucario's physical attack by one level.

"Ash sent out a red Gyarados, it looks great. Lucario, we're going to attack."

"Luca!"

"Xiaozhi, just come over here."

"Then we won't be polite. Gyarados, use Iron Head."

"Lucario, go and meet the attack."

Gyarados's head glowed silvery-white as it rammed headfirst into the spikes on Lucario's chest.

"Gyarados, use Water Tail."

"Lucario, block the attack."

Gyarados gathered water energy at the tip of its tail and swung it fiercely at Lucario, but Lucario crossed his arms over his chest to block the water tail.

"Gyarados, use Earthquake."

"Lucario, dodge and then use Sword Dance."

Lucario jumped up to avoid the shock wave caused by the earthquake. At the same time, several sharp swords suddenly appeared and circled around Lucario, greatly increasing Lucario's physical attack to +1.

"Gyarados, use Water Tail."

"Lucario, use the bone stick to block the attack."

Lucario clenched his fists in front of his chest, and produced a bone stick out of thin air, spinning it quickly to block the attack from Water Tail.

"Opportunity, opportunity, great opportunity, let's go all out, Lucario, go behind Gyarados and use the Power-Up Punch."

Lucario took the opportunity to get behind Gyarados and launch a sneak attack, but was tied up tightly by Gyarados' tail and could not move.

"Luca!"

Lucario was in great pain from being restrained, and kept slapping Gyarados' tail, but to no avail.

"Lucario!" Korni shouted worriedly.

"Gyarados, go all out."

Gyarados burst into flames, violently knocking Lucario away with great effect.

"For the final blow, Gyarados, use Earthquake."

Lucario had just been thrown out and hadn't stood up yet when he was attacked by a powerful earthquake shock wave. The effect was amazing, and Lucario was knocked to the ground on the spot.

"Lucario is incapable of fighting, Gyarados wins, so the winner is Ash," Citron announced.

"Well done, Gyarados."

"Ugh!"

"Pikachu!"

"Come back, Lucario, thank you for your hard work.

Xiaozhi, you guys are really strong, it's a pity that our winning streak was interrupted, we originally thought we could achieve 99 consecutive wins."

At this time, Yulijia noticed that there was an evolution key stone embedded in Korni's left glove.

Korni said that this was given to her by her grandfather, and that the first person in the world to use super evolution was Korni's ancestor.

This was not surprising to Xiaozhi, after all, Sala City was one of the origins of mega evolution.

“So Korne can also make Lucario mega evolve, just like Miss Kalune made Gardevoir mega evolve before.” Citron said excitedly.

"That's impossible because Lucario doesn't currently have the ability to mega evolve," said Korni.

"Why?"

"Because Lucario doesn't have a Mega Evolution Stone on him right now." Xiaozhi said with a smile.

"That's right, you are worthy of being Xiaozhi. You observe very carefully." Korni praised.

"No, I learned it through communicating with Lucario about the power of waves. I have the power of waves."

"I see. That's amazing."

Then, the group found a place to rest, and Xitron cooked a lot of food for everyone.

During the meal, Korni told everyone,

A few days ago, her grandfather, the former gym trainer of the Sala gym, Mr. Kokobul, gave this evolution keystone to Korni.

He also told Korni that if she wanted Lucario to mega evolve, she had to go to Shixiang Town to get the Lucario mega evolution stone and cultivate a trusting relationship and bond between Lucario and her.

But Korni thinks that as long as she becomes stronger, everything will be fine. After all, she and Lucario grew up together, fought against many people, and a deep bond has already been established between them.

So Korni and Lucario set a goal to achieve 100 consecutive wins before reaching Shixiang Town.

Xiaozhi is the 99th opponent chosen by Korne. Before this, Korne and Lucario had achieved 98 consecutive victories.

She also collected the footprints of every Pokémon that she and Lucario defeated in a notebook as evidence.

As soon as Ash heard it, he knew that it was a test set by Cocobul for Korne to see if Korne was currently qualified to use Mega Evolution.

After all, Korni's friend, Caidou, the gym trainer of the Suden Gym in the Galar region, once commented,

Korni was still too naive about fighting.

In order to repay Korne for helping him in the original animation, Xiaozhi decided to help Korne in this life.

Xiaozhi comforted Korni and told her not to regret the interruption of her 100-game winning streak and her failure.

Korni and the others set the goal of achieving 100 consecutive wins, isn't it also to strengthen the bond between them and Lucario?

Failure is not terrible. As long as you can learn lessons from failure, failure is sometimes more important than success. Today's failure will lead to tomorrow's success.

Xiaozhi's words were deeply engraved in Korni's heart, and made her cheer up again.

When Xiaozhi proposed to go to Shixiang Town with Korne, Korne agreed without hesitation. Having a senior who could use Mega Evolution accompanying her would definitely make things a lot easier for her.

A few days later, the five people arrived at Shixiang Town.

Shixiang Town is a town that is proud of its precious stones that are arranged like ancient relics.

This place is famous for its rugged rocks, which are said to have extraordinary powers.

The slogan here is "Silent stones tell a lot."

Korni is very excited about the upcoming Lucario Mega Evolution Stone.

And Xiaozhi's first impression of this place was that it was the location of the ultimate weapon and the secret base of Team Flash.

The ultimate weapon deployed by Team Flash was activated at this place.

As soon as he arrived in the town, Xiaozhi found that there were shops selling stones everywhere, and all kinds of strange shapes of stones could be seen in the shops in this town.

Evolution stones used by Pokémon are also sold here.

Previously, Cocobul only told Korni that as long as she came to Shixiang Town, she could find the evolution key stone, but did not tell Korni the specific method and location.

But Korni and Hitron actually ran directly to the store to ask.

Xiaozhi couldn't help but hold his forehead and sigh, no, if Mega Evolution Stones were so common and could be bought in stores, you wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to get them, and then everyone in the world would have one Mega Lucario, and it would definitely be impossible to buy them in stores.
