Cynthia released a serpentine Pokémon, none other than Milotic, known as the most beautiful Pokémon.

And the Pokémon Ange released was Latias.
Milotic's Attack, Defense, and Accuracy were all boosted.
Ange, of course, wasn't idle: “Latias, Dragon Pulse.”
He directly commanded Latias to attack Milotic.
“Woo~” Latias's figure cut through the sky, and blue-purple energy poured down, exploding like fireworks.
The so-called exhibition match, as the name suggests, is mainly about performance. Winning or losing is not important, what is important is to make the audience happy.
Dragon Pulse exploded on Milotic, leaving it battered and bruised.
Cynthia said, “Milotic, Recover.”
“Woo~~” Milotic cried to the sky, its gentle voice soothing, and at the same time, its body lit up with colorful light, which was breathtaking.
In the light, Milotic's injuries healed quickly.
Then Cynthia said, “Milotic, Dragon Pulse.”
Ange also spoke at the same time: “Latias, Dragon Pulse.”
In an instant, two dragon-shaped energy waves met in the air, and a larger firework exploded in the air, with starlight floating all over the venue.
The audience burst into cheers again.
“Milotic, Milotic! Cynthia! Cynthia!”
“Latias, Latias! Ange! Ange!”
The audience shouted the names of their idols.
Of course, Cynthia was more popular than Ange, who made her famous earlier and was a great beauty.
However, Milotic's Dragon Pulse was obviously not as powerful as Latias's.
After Latias's Dragon Pulse shattered Milotic's, it continued to rush towards Milotic.
With a loud bang, Dragon Pulse exploded on Milotic.
Milotic immediately let out a wail, and at the same time, a ray of glazed light flashed across its body.
Immediately afterward, a beam of light burst out from Milotic's body and shot towards Latias in the air.
It turned out that Milotic used Mirror Coat.
Mirror Coat can reflect the damage received by the user back in twice the amount.
Latias was caught off guard and hit, wailing and falling from the sky.
After each was injured, Latias used Recover, while Milotic used Aqua Ring.
The colorful light emitted by Recover and the blue water ring formed by Aqua Ring complemented each other, and the beautiful scene once again ignited the audience's enthusiasm, with cheers louder than ever.
Latias's Recover speed was much faster than Milotic's. Almost in the blink of an eye, the injuries it suffered were restored.
This time Latias used its signature move, Mist Ball. A pink ball of light condensed in its mouth and shot towards Milotic in the next second.
Milotic, of course, would not sit still and wait for death. A blue-ice ray was fired by it.
It used Ice Beam.
However, in just one face-to-face encounter, Ice Beam was defeated by the pink ball of light, and then hit Milotic's head.
Milotic wailed and fell to the ground.
At this time, Aqua Ring took effect, and water rings surrounded Milotic, healing its injuries.
Milotic quickly got up from the ground, and a light screen stood up in front of it.
Latias controlled a Mist Ball to attack again, but its power was greatly weakened by the Light Screen.
Mist Ball accidentally triggered an additional effect, reducing Milotic's Special Attack.
However, Cynthia was not flustered at all, “Milotic, Haze!”
As her voice fell, Milotic opened its mouth and spat out a large amount of black mist with cold air.
The black mist spread, and Milotic bathed in the black mist, and the reduced Special Attack instantly returned to the origin.
Haze is an Ice-type status move, and its effect is to return all Pokémon's stats on the field to their original state.
Of course, Milotic's reduced Special Attack was restored, and the boosts brought by its previous Coil also disappeared.
After performing Haze, Milotic then performed Whirlpool.
A huge vortex was controlled by it and thrown towards Latias, instantly engulfing Latias in it.
Latias, who was deep in the center of the vortex, only felt dizzy. It tried to fly out of the vortex, but failed.
At this time, Ange shouted: “Latias, Psychic.”
“Woo~” Latias's eyes narrowed upon hearing this, and a strong purple light burst from its eyes. The Whirlpool, which was originally rotating at high speed, was instantly fixed in mid-air.
“Woo~” Another cry sounded, Latias's psychic power erupted, and the entire Whirlpool suddenly exploded, and the water flow turned into water mist and filled the air, forming a huge rainbow bridge under the refraction of the sun, which was extremely gorgeous.
The audience cheered excitedly when they saw this, and the atmosphere in the arena reached its peak.
Seeing that the time had come, Ange said to Latias: “Latias, Draco Meteor!”
As Ange's voice fell, Latias roared to the sky, and a red beam of light was launched by Latias into the sky.
As the light ball exploded, countless boulders burning with raging fire fell from the sky.
At the same time, a light curtain surrounded the entire arena, protecting all the spectators.
The open-air arena in Lumiose City is a dedicated venue for holding the League Tournament, and it was built not long ago, so all the equipment is brand new, and the protection ability is first-class.
Some of the boulders hit the light curtain, but most of them hit Milotic.
Milotic kept firing Water Gun to attack the boulders, but it was still unfortunately hit by one of them.
By the time Draco Meteor ended, Milotic was already unconscious.
Karuna was heard announcing loudly: “Milotic is unable to battle, Latias wins, our Champion Ange wins!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the audience cheered and applauded Ange.
Today is Ange's home game, he must win, it would be too embarrassing if he lost.
After the battle, Cynthia retracted the unconscious Milotic into its Poké Ball, smiled and walked to Ange and extended her right hand to him.
“It's hard for you to deliberately stalemate with me for so long.”
Cynthia knew very well that with Latias's strength, defeating Milotic was easy.
Among her Pokémon, only Garchomp can compete with Latias.
Ange smiled and said: “It's an exhibition match, it's right to make the audience enjoy it.”
Saying that, he shook Cynthia's hand.
The moment the two shook hands, the audience boiled again.
Alola Region, Pokémon School.
Xiao Zhi and his classmates were also watching the exhibition match through a live television broadcast.
Seeing An Jie and Cynthia shake hands, Xiao Zhi stood up excitedly.
"Mr. An Jie and Miss Cynthia are both so amazing! I wish I were there in person. I would definitely challenge them!"
Kaki, hearing this, said, "Xiao Zhi, you are also very powerful."
Xiao Zhi shook his head, "Compared to Mr. An Jie and Miss Cynthia, I am still far behind!"
Speaking of this, he became motivated.
"I must work even harder!"
In the Paldea region, at Orange Academy.
Penny, Clive, and Glimmora were also sitting in front of the television watching the broadcast.
"An Jie is already a member of the Elite Four! So amazing!" Penny said excitedly.
Professor Sada and Professor Turo had rarely taken a vacation for themselves and happened to be visiting their son at Orange Academy today.
"Yes, it hasn't been that long, and An Jie's strength has changed so quickly," Professor Turo couldn't help but exclaim.
Professor Sada smiled and said to her son, "Penny, you must learn from An Jie."
Penny nodded vigorously, "I will!"
In Lumiose City, after An Jie's exhibition match ended, Diantha said to the audience in the arena, "I think everyone is still not satisfied after watching Mr. An Jie's match, right?"
"Yes!" The audience answered in unison.
Diantha continued, "Then today, I will give everyone a chance to be fully satisfied. Is there anyone confident enough to come on stage and challenge Mr. An Jie?"
Hearing this, the audience instantly became quiet.
The opportunity to challenge a member of the Elite Four was certainly rare. If it were any other time, everyone would be happy to challenge.
But today was different. The live broadcast was being broadcast to the entire world.
If one were to lose too miserably, it would be a very embarrassing thing, embarrassing to the whole world.
Just then, a person slowly stood up.
This person had long, gray-blue hair, wore a red cloak, and had a somewhat頹靡气质.
Just as everyone was a little curious about who this person was, who actually had the courage to challenge Elite Four An Jie at this time, someone suddenly recognized his identity.
"Isn't that Tobias?"
As soon as this name was mentioned, many people suddenly realized.
At the Sinnoh League Lily of the Valley Conference three years ago, it was this person who won the final victory with Darkrai and Latios.
After that, Tobias became famous as a legendary trainer.
But no one expected that just as his reputation was rising, he suddenly disappeared, and no one knew where he had gone.
Unexpectedly, he appeared at the Elite Four's inauguration ceremony today and wanted to challenge the Elite Four.
Diantha glanced at An Jie. Seeing An Jie nod to her, she said loudly, "Then please invite this audience member to come on stage."
Tobias nodded and slowly walked onto the stage.
Diantha handed the microphone to him and asked, "May I ask what this audience member's name is?"
Of course, Diantha knew his name, but it was just a formality.
Tobias answered concisely, "Tobias."
Diantha said, "So it's Mr. Tobias. Then, Mr. Tobias, do you have the confidence to win against Elite Four An Jie?"
Tobias replied expressionlessly, "If he doesn't use Xerneas and Yveltal, I think there shouldn't be a problem."
Hearing his answer, the audience exclaimed.
How arrogant!
Diantha then turned to An Jie and asked, "Elite Four An Jie, what do you think of Tobias's answer?"
An Jie smiled and said, "Wish him success?"
Diantha smiled upon hearing this, "Our Elite Four An Jie is indeed extraordinary. I think everyone should already be unable to wait. Then, let's start the match."
An Jie and Tobias nodded at the same time, walked to the center of the arena, stood on both sides, and took out their Poké Balls at the same time.
As two red lights flashed, two Pokémon appeared in the air above the field.
Seeing the appearance of the two Pokémon, all the audience exclaimed because the Pokémon sent out by both sides were Latios.
An Jie opened the Data Eye and looked at the Latios opposite him.
Latios
[Attribute] Dragon, Psychic
[Characteristic] Levitate
[Gender] Male
[Level] 89
[Skills] Dragon Dance, Stored Power, Helping Hand, Recover, Confusion, Tailwind…
[Individual Values]
HP: 31
Attack: 31
Defense: 31
Special Attack: 31
Special Defense: 31
Speed: 31
So it's only level 89! An Jie looked surprised.
An Jie didn't mean that a level 89 Pokémon was low. On the contrary, level 89 was already a very high-level Pokémon.
But as a legendary Pokémon, level 89 could only be considered average.
Unless it was born not long ago, most legendary Pokémon were above level 90, and if they lived longer, they could basically reach 100.
"Latios, Dragon Pulse!" the two said at the same time.
"Woo~~" The two Latios cried out, simultaneously spewing out a Dragon Pulse towards each other.
Boom!!!!!
Along with a loud noise, the dragon-shaped pulses that collided together exploded violently.
But obviously, Tobias's Latios could not be compared with An Jie's level 100 Latios in terms of hard power.
After An Jie's Latios's Dragon Pulse broke through Tobias's Latios's Dragon Pulse, it directly hit Tobias's Latios.
"Woo~~" Tobias's Latios wailed and fell to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Tobias frowned.
His Latios actually lost.
Obviously, Tobias was originally very confident in his Latios.
"Latios, Recover, then Dragon Dance!"
As his voice fell, colorful light emerged from Tobias's Latios, and its injuries recovered in an instant.
Then it soared into the sky, and its body began to spin rapidly in the air.
Of course, An Jie couldn't let the opponent strengthen, so he instructed his Latios, "Latios, Psychic Noise!"
Upon hearing this, Latios's feathers vibrated violently, and a harsh noise quickly spread out from it.
Psychic-type skills were resisted by Latios, and the damage that could be caused was limited.
But An Jie's purpose was not to attack Tobias's Latios.
The harsh noise seriously affected the attention of the Latios on the opposite side, making it unable to concentrate on Dragon Dance.
The Dragon Dance that had just been strengthened was interrupted.
The strengthening of a round of Dragon Dance could not make up for the level gap between the two sides.
