Pokemon: Reborn As Ash, I'll Conquer Every League

Chapter 218: Mega Rayquaza

Hyper Beam!

"Geng Gar" Super Ancient Gengar flashed to the front and blocked the move.

The next second.

A seven-colored light shone from beneath the sea.

"Be careful, Rayquaza has used Mega Evolution."

For Ash, who frequently uses Mega Evolution, that seven-colored light was all too familiar.

"Hmm?"

Mewtwo stared intently beneath the sea and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise; he hadn’t expected this Legendary Pokémon called Rayquaza could also perform Mega Evolution on its own.

But now was clearly not the time to investigate the reason.

Mega Rayquaza burst out from the seabed. At this moment, Rayquaza was surrounded by special airflow energy, the protrusions on its lower jaw had become sharp and huge, extending to the front of its mouth, and a peculiar △-shaped pattern appeared on its forehead.

While using Dragon Dance, it stared at Ash and communicated telepathically: "Human, if you can defeat me in this form, I will go with you. If you can’t, that foreign Pokémon will die!"

After Mega Evolution, Rayquaza’s strength had reached the level of a Tier 1 Legendary, and its Ability had changed from Air Lock to Delta Stream, an effect that creates weather where the weaknesses of the Flying type disappear.

"Rayquaza, I will definitely capture you!"

Ash was not discouraged by Rayquaza’s Mega Evolution; on the contrary, he wanted to capture it even more.

"Mewtwo, use Future Sight. Dragonite, use Psybeam. Gengar, use Phantom Force."

Mewtwo fired a special Psychic light orb into the sky. The damage from Future Sight is not dealt immediately but triggered after a delay, which was Ash’s preemptive move to prevent Rayquaza from running away.

Dragonite opened its mouth, gathering Ice-type energy, and fired a pale white beam.

Facing the incoming Psybeam, Rayquaza coiled its body and flew upward, circling around the beam.

Boom!

The Psybeam landed entirely on the sea surface, instantly freezing a vortex below.

In the deeper seabed of the Whirl Islands.

The female Lugia sensed a Legendary Pokémon battle happening at Pidgey Island and couldn’t sit still, swimming straight toward them.

"Gengar, use Phantom Force!"

Super Ancient Gengar turned into a shadow and disappeared from the spot.

Rayquaza ignored Gengar and used Extreme Speed, slamming head-first toward Dragonite.

Facing Rayquaza’s Impact, Dragonite showed no signs of retreating, grabbing the two protruding horns on Rayquaza’s head with its large hands to test their strength.

In terms of level, the Mega-Evolved Rayquaza indeed held the advantage, but in terms of strength, Ancient Dragonite was not inferior, holding off Rayquaza’s Extreme Speed collision directly.

Mewtwo also took advantage of Rayquaza and Dragonite locking horns, teleporting beneath Rayquaza to release Aura Sphere.

Boom!

The Aura Sphere hit Rayquaza’s lower abdomen. Rayquaza hissed in pain and whipped its tail, intending to use Dragon Tail to knock Mewtwo away.

However, Gengar, who had been hiding from the start, suddenly appeared and hit Rayquaza with an Impact from another direction, forcibly interrupting the move.

Dragonite took the opportunity to pull back one hand, charging an Ice Punch and smashing it over.

Slap!

Rayquaza was knocked back into the sea again.

This perfectly illustrated that even a strong tiger cannot withstand a pack of wolves; facing the coordinated Mewtwo and the others, Mega Rayquaza simply couldn’t unleash its full capabilities.

"Ash, she is here. Let me go out and stop her!"

At this moment, Ash heard Lugia’s call.

"She? You mean your kin in the Whirl Islands have come to join the fun?" Ash asked confusedly.

Lugia explained: "Yes, Legendary Pokémon battles, even without divine duties, have a huge Impact on the surrounding environment. She needs to maintain the balance of the Whirl Islands!"

"Fine, go stop her. We will move the battlefield back to the sky. Also, I will try to restore the environment here after the battle."

"Okay!"

After Lugia came out of the ball, it dove into the sea and swam quickly in another direction.

Ash shouted to Mewtwo and the others: "Mewtwo, Dragonite, Gengar, let it go to the sky and fight again!"

Hearing this, Mewtwo and the others, who were planning to keep Rayquaza pinned to the sea surface, quickly ascended.

It seemed Rayquaza had really heated up; after rushing out of the sea, it stacked a Dragon Dance and charged straight at Mewtwo and the others.

Mewtwo was clever; after reaching the clouds, it dove in and concealed its figure. However, Gengar and Dragonite couldn’t hide—firstly, because their size was too large, and secondly, because their colors were wrong.

Seeing Mewtwo hide, Rayquaza directly unleashed Twister in mid-air, summoning airflow to protect itself while charging.

Seeing that the height was about right, Ash shouted: "Dragonite, use Dragon Pulse. Gengar, use Shadow Ball to tear open Rayquaza’s defense."

Dragonite spat out a dragon-shaped energy wave, heading straight for Rayquaza’s face. Gengar was even more ruthless, throwing three dark purple spherical energy waves.

The defense Rayquaza had just applied to itself was instantly torn open.

The moment this opening appeared, a grayish-white Energy Ball descended from the sky and smashed into Rayquaza’s right cheek.

Mewtwo followed closely behind the Energy Ball, rushed in front of Rayquaza, and then unleashed a Psychic.

On Pidgey Island.

Seeing Ash and the others flying back into the sky, Misty immediately became anxious. She hurriedly asked Professor Oak on the other end of the phone: "Professor, have you found information on that Pokémon?"

"Ah, I have some clues. That is the Sky Ruler of the Hoenn region, the Legendary Pokémon Rayquaza, though its color and form are different from the records. However, based on Ash’s previous research on Mega Evolution, that form is very likely also a Mega Evolution."

Professor Oak was also shocked when he saw Rayquaza. He didn’t expect Ash to encounter another Legendary Pokémon, and judging by the situation, this battle looked very much like a capture battle. This meant he would soon have a new research subject!

"Sky Ruler?" Hearing that Rayquaza had such a title, Misty became even more nervous: "Wouldn’t Ash be in danger?"

"Don’t worry, that guy Ash still has two Super Ancient Pokémon he hasn’t released yet, and the three Legendary Birds haven’t been released either," Brock comforted.

However, the Team Rocket Trio next to them were even more shocked when they heard this information. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

They had clearly followed him the whole way, so how did they not know how many outrageous Pokémon Ash had captured? This gave them the feeling that they had followed him, but also hadn’t.

"That’s right, Misty. Ash’s strength is very strong now. Since he is confident in battling Rayquaza, he must have the certainty of victory," Professor Oak also spoke up to reassure her.

"But..." Misty still couldn’t set her heart at ease.

After all, that was several thousand meters in the air; if any accident happened...

In the sky.

The battle at this time was already nearing its end.

Seeing that Mewtwo and the other two were all injured, Ash directly applied the Natural Power buff to them.

One could see that some of the minor injuries on Mewtwo and the others were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye, along with their stamina.
