Chapter 174: #174 - The Shadow Alliance fights, Joker wins [Please subscribe, please vote]

Whoosh— Rumble!

The crimson meteor approached rapidly, cleaving through the black, rainy night sky with overwhelming force.

Finally, it crashed heavily onto the back of the Dark Lugia, already stained red with blood.

Both Team Shadow and the League, who had moved the battlefield from the floating Indigo Plateau to Victory Road, paused their actions.

"W-What is that? A m-meteor!?"

"No, it looks like something's inside it?"

"Is that a Pokémon's move!?"

"To hit Dark Lugia before it could react… What Pokémon has such power?!"

Just as Team Shadow and the League were in shock, everyone heard an exhilarating howl.

[He says, 'Don't you dare touch my wife, ChuMi'~]

The long-absent telepathic voice echoed in Su Sheng's mind.

Su Sheng saw clearly: the big dog wearing a shield-shaped helmet was none other than Zamazenta!

He turned to look at the bootleg yellow rat on the back of Mega Altaria, who had appeared at some point.

"You called in reinforcements?"

Su Sheng asked.

[Mimi~ Of course, you haven't finished the game you promised to make for me yet!]

……

Time rewinds five minutes.

"Pikachu" used Teleport to move Sonia and Lorelei to Victory Road.

Then, it tried to use Teleport to fly back.

Such a grand scene hadn't been seen since Hoopa was sealed away a hundred years ago.

It couldn't be missed!

However, judging from Bewear's condition, it probably couldn't defeat the black big bird.

Originally, according to Mew's personality, it would remain neutral, quietly watching the show, regardless of who won or lost.

Even when Team Rocket created a "son" for it in the future, Mew didn't pay much attention.

However, Team Shadow had gone too far this time.

Even Mew, the lover of fun, couldn't stand it anymore.

Mew initially wondered if it should go itself, but it felt that the big black bird was too fierce, so maybe it should call for help?

Speaking of which, would it be too late to find Articuno and Moltres?

Just as Mew was struggling with who to call, it suddenly remembered Bewear and Zamazenta's little affair, and Mew teleported back to Slumbering Weald in Galar.

It told the big dog what was happening on the eastern continent.

Zamazenta, who hadn't tasted blood for a month and was taking a cold bath to calm down, immediately became anxious upon hearing this.

Which bastard dared to touch his female bear!?

Zamazenta immediately grabbed his Rusted Shield, even ignoring his sister's warning, and teleported to Kanto with Mew.

And then… the scene before them unfolded.

……

……

"Uh… Anyway, thanks. Fortunately, this change won't affect the plan."

Su Sheng nodded to the yellow rat.

Originally, Su Sheng's plan was to have Bewear beat Dark Lugia to near-death, and then have Zoroark transform into Joker to capture it.

But it's okay, killing it has a higher capture rate than capturing it at near-death, so it's fine.

[It's okay, just finish that game or something soon, and I'll sue you if it's not fun]

The yellow rat crossed its arms and threatened.

It learned the word "sue" from Sonia while watching TV.

"Sheng!"

Erika, riding on Galarian Articuno, and Rika, sitting on Galarian Moltres, also arrived one after another, reuniting the trio.

Rika handed Su Sheng a Poké Ball, "You need it, right?"

Inside was Zoroark, whom she had borrowed to Rika earlier.

Erika released Galarian Slowbro and Gardevoir, whom she had recently captured in Hoenn.

The two Psychic-type Pokémon released Heal Pulse together, helping Bewear with emergency treatment.

"Did you deal with Kingdra?"

Su Sheng squatted down, holding Bewear's big hand, and turned to ask Rika.

"Yeah… but, I don't feel any sense of revenge."

Rika's expression was very complicated, and so was her Houndoom in its Poké Ball.

Su Sheng then heard the whole story from Rika and fell silent for a moment.

"This is Pokémon."

Su Sheng sighed as he looked at the unconscious Bewear.

"As long as they choose to follow you, they will do anything."

"Perhaps, Houndoom and I were wrong about the object of our revenge from the start."

Rika smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Then go again, and completely end this resentment."

Su Sheng said with a light smile.

"Yeah!"

Having received Su Sheng's affirmation, Rika nodded emphatically.

"Dr. Su Sheng!"

At this moment, Sonia and Lorelei, with bandages tied to her thigh, hurried over.

"Are you okay!?"

Sonia asked worriedly.

"The one you should be worried about is Bewear, not me."

Su Sheng shook his head.

Zamazenta, who had sent Dark Lugia flying with G-Max Move, turned into red light and rushed over, then lowered his head and gently licked Bewear's cheek.

At this time, under the dual Heal Pulse, Bewear, who had recovered some strength, twitched its eyelids and barely opened its eyes.

"Woo…"

Bewear's throat let out a low, slightly self-reproachful murmur.

"You did a great job, thank you."

Su Sheng said sincerely.

"Donoh~"

Bewear raised its head slightly and rubbed its cheek against Su Sheng's.

"You have a really good relationship with Pokémon."

Lorelei couldn't help but talk to Su Sheng.

"Yeah."

Su Sheng also smiled, gently patted Bewear on the back, comforting her that she had done well enough.

Seeing that Su Sheng didn't even look at Lorelei, the cow, but kept comforting Bewear, Rika had a vague feeling that Lorelei wasn't much of a threat.

Suddenly noticing Dark Lugia rolling down from the mountain wall next to her, Rika whispered in Su Sheng's ear, "Sheng, it's about time…"

Su Sheng nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"Woof!"

Zamazenta also flattered and put his face over.

Wife! I just defeated that black thing!

Bewear glanced at this dog thing with disgust.

After hesitating for two seconds, it finally endured the fatigue of its body and raised its hand to hold the sides of Zamazenta's dog face.

It kissed his dog mouth.

"Oh oh oh oh!"

Sonia and the yellow rat's mouths were wide open, with an expression of shipping them.

Lorelei's thundering heart also jumped fiercely, unable to calm down.

This, is this love?

Zamazenta was even directly in tears.

Family, who knows, more than a month after breaking virginity, my first kiss was finally given!

While Sonia and Lorelei's attention was drawn to the bear-dog combination, Su Sheng took out the disguise wristband and exchanged glances with Zoroark in the Poké Ball.

"Sheng, we have to leave someone here as a substitute, and also leave an alibi."

Erika winked at Lorelei and Sonia, who were shipping the CP.

Su Sheng nodded secretly, and quietly threw down the Poké Ball containing Zoroark.

Just as Giovanni said, having a surface identity is pretty good, at least it will be convenient when doing certain things.

And the thing to be used next… it's best to use another identity.

……

"Roar—"

Dark Lugia's painful roar echoed over Victory Road.

It's hard to say who is stronger, Dark Lugia or Zamazenta.

But if there is a Dark Aura bonus, Dark Lugia is probably better in terms of destructive power.

But don't forget, although not as good as his sister, Zamazenta is by no means vegetarian.

If Zacian's combat power in the top legends belongs to S-level, then Zamazenta is also an A+ at least.

Not to mention that Dark Lugia had just fought Bewear to near-death or even red-health state.

It almost took Zamazenta's exclusive move without any defense.

Dark Lugia's body instantly lost its balance, like a huge rock, rolling on the mountain wall of Victory Road.

Finally, it rolled all the way to the mountainside in a mess before barely stopping.

The huge impact directly opened up a new pedestrian path on the mountain wall of this high mountain.

"Good!"

Seeing this scene, even Lance couldn't help but shout.

The reason why Team Shadow can still steadily gain the upper hand under the siege of so many League elites.

It relies on Dark Lugia.

As long as this monster falls, the next thing is very easy work.

Not to mention that Su Sheng also has Zamazenta.

However, after Dark Lugia fell to the mountainside, Bewear also accidentally fell from the sky.

Fighting with such top legends, her physical strength has also reached its limit.

As Dark Lugia's consciousness gradually blurred, the Dark Aura that could continuously reduce the physical strength of Dark Pokémon was also gradually disappearing.

At the same time, there was also the suffocating feeling that was extremely uncomfortable for ordinary Pokémon.

"Gah!"

On the other end of the Victory Road battlefield, Lucario, next to Cynthia, pointed to the three o'clock direction.

"Garchomp! Dragon Claw!"

"Gardevoir! Moonblast!"

Cynthia's Garchomp and Diantha's Gardevoir.

Two Pokémon of Champion-level and Elite Four peak-level launched moves that countered the Dragon-type in the direction Lucario pointed.

Sharp Dragon-type cyan flame claws and light pink fairy light balls hit the seemingly empty mid-air one after another.

"Woo~~"

However, a more feminine cry of pain came from there immediately.

Dragon Sister Latias, crashed!

With the help of Lucario's Aura perception.

Latias's transparent ability had nowhere to hide.

Since suffering a loss from Joker last time, Cynthia has asked her Lucario to focus on cultivating Aura perception ability.

She even consulted the expert in this area, Aaron.

"Good! Next, only Latios is left!"

Diantha showed a bright smile.

"This battle, we won! Although Team Shadow still has a lot of Legendary Pokémon, we also have Dr. Su Sheng and Zamazenta!"

Under the messy bangs of Steven Stone, the originally handsome face was full of dust, but at this moment, he couldn't help but reveal a sincere smile.

Dark Lugia, Team Shadow's biggest reliance, has fallen.

If they still can't take down Team Shadow, then they, these League masters, should commit suicide!

"Let's send Latias back to the rear first, I don't know if this Dark corruption can be lifted…"

Cynthia stepped forward quickly, ready to pick up the Dragon Sister.

In fact, it would be more convenient to directly put it in a Poké Ball. Of course, Cynthia was not coveting Latias, but simply because it was convenient to transport.

On the other side, Lance, who joined forces with Agatha and Bruno to deal with the Dark corrupted Regi trio, and others were also getting better.

Even with three Legends, Alder obviously couldn't multitask, resisting the joint attacks of two Champion-level and one peak Elite Four-level.

The misfortune among misfortunes is that the girl named "Karen" didn't know where to go after the island was destroyed.

Otherwise, Alder would have been taken down long ago.

"As expected of the future of our League!"

"Everyone, keep going! The goddess of victory is smiling at us!"

"Team Shadow, you're done for!"

Dark Lugia and Latias being defeated undoubtedly injected a powerful stimulant into the League, and shouts full of excitement rang out one after another.

"Everyone! Good news! News just came from Paldea that reinforcements from Paldea will arrive soon!"

And Chairman Goodshow also shouted loudly under Alder's protection to boost morale.

The old face was full of smiles, and the wrinkles on his face felt like they could kill mosquitoes.

Of course, these words were just to boost morale.

Paldea is so far away from Kanto. Although reinforcements have been sent, it will take several hours to fly.

At most, they will come to clean up the battlefield, and it is impossible to participate in the war.

As for why Goodshow didn't mention Galar?

Because Rose just called.

He said that Kanto was about to win, and there was no need to send reinforcements from Galar.

So he had already called the Galar plane to turn around and go back.

Chairman Goodshow almost couldn't help but curse when he received this call.

But seeing that victory was imminent, he restrained himself.

Anyway, it's already a sure win, so what's wrong with opening a champagne?

The League's morale rose again.

Good!

Great!

The scales of victory are really tilting towards our side!

No! It's already a sure win!

Hearing the cheers from the colleagues around him, Cynthia couldn't help but show a bright smile, and then turned her gaze to the fallen Latias.

"It's okay, we're here to save you…"

Whoosh—

However, just as Cynthia stretched out her finger to touch Latias.

A Poké Ball swept past the three future Champions, Diantha, Steven Stone, and Cynthia, and accurately hit Latias's back.

The rebounded Poké Ball automatically opened the ball cover, sucking Latias into it.

Everyone was stunned.

Because this was not the Dark Poké Ball that Atheist used to hold Latias, but an ordinary red and white Poké Ball.

This, this is not right?!

Latias, who had already been captured, how could she be put into other Poké Balls!?

On the other side.

"Dark Lugia, return!"

Zinzolin, sitting on a Dark corrupted Articuno, flew to the Dark Lugia lying on the mountainside at extreme speed, took out the Dark Poké Ball, and prepared to take his trump card back.

Death Gold was well aware that without Shadow Lugia, Shadow could not contend with the Alliance.

But it didn't matter, as long as Shadow Lugia recovered its strength, Shadow could make a comeback at any time!

"Don't even think about it!"

Accompanied by a roar, a stream of Flamethrower blasted directly towards Death Gold.

The Dark Articuno beneath him dodged to the side, helping Death Gold avoid the attack.

However, the red light emitted from Death Gold's Dark Poké Ball deviated from Shadow Lugia, failing to retrieve it into the ball.

"Don't even think about retrieving Shadow Lugia!"

Lance, who was originally dealing with Ardos alongside Koga and Bruno, had already ridden his Dragonite to Death Gold's front.

After Shadow Lugia fell, he had been staring at Death Gold.

His purpose was to prevent the opponent from taking away this monster.

"Get out of here!"

Death Gold no longer had the arrogant declaration of victory he had in the airship, and a line of shadows appeared under his eyes.

The Dark Moltres and Zapdos also gathered around.

"Everyone, support Wattson! We must not allow Shadow to recover Shadow Lugia!"

Chairman Goodshow also saw at a glance the key to the current victory.

Once Death Gold retrieved Shadow Lugia and took it away.

Then even if the Alliance temporarily won this war, it would be an endless source of trouble.

"Chairman! That…"

Caitlin, who had witnessed an ordinary red and white Poké Ball capturing Latias, turned her head to report to Chairman Goodshow.

However, just as Lance and Death Gold were confronting each other above Shadow Lugia, which was lying on the mountainside.

A Great Ball划过 below, falling straight towards Shadow Lugia.

Death Gold and Lance, as well as the Shadow and Alliance members who had come to reinforce them, did not notice this scene.

Only the billions of viewers in front of the television watching the entire battlefield through the camera noticed it.

Upon touching Shadow Lugia, the black and yellow Great Ball bounced half a meter away, automatically opening its lid and releasing a red light to suck it in.

Buzz~Buzz~

The Great Ball that landed began to shake.

At this time, in the high sky, Death Gold and Lance, who noticed that such a large Shadow Lugia had disappeared below, mechanically lowered their heads.

Bruno, Lorelei, Ardos, and others who had come to reinforce them, all stared blankly at the Great Ball shaking on the ground as if they had seen a ghost.

Buzz~Thump!

The Great Ball shook for the third time under the瞩目 of the whole world.

Finally, the button in the center emitted a red light, sounding a prompt tone symbolizing successful capture.

At this time, everyone at the scene had not yet reacted.

Another second passed before everyone saw a mechanical left arm picking up the Great Ball that contained Shadow Lugia.

Lance, Cynthia, Lorelei… many people at the scene either gritted their teeth or bit their lower lips, almost spitting out a word from between their teeth:

"Joker!?"

The editor said that there will be recommendations at the end of the month, a bit desperate, please support me, little sister will work hard
