Chapter 106

If they were Ash, how could they come up with the optimal solution?

But.

Can't find it, because it's unsolvable!

Torracat vs Blast Burn.

It's basically 0%.

However, Ash does what others can't.

"Torracat, it's time to let them see our capacity! Take it head-on!"

Viewers:???

Ash, you're practically wishing for Torracat to die.

This is too shocking.

"Meow!!"

Without a moment of thought, Torracat didn't make any defensive moves.

Because Blast Burn had already arrived in front of it.

Soft-hearted people had already closed their eyes, unable to bear watching this terrifying scene.

In their view.

Torracat was bound to lose, and might even be sent directly to the Pokémon Center for emergency treatment.

After all, the strength gap between the two sides was too wide.

Only!

"Ding-a-ling~"

The melodious bell sound was exceptionally pleasant in this field filled with flames.

Where did the bell sound come from?

Everyone opened their eyes and looked, wanting to find the source of the bell sound.

Only, this made them see an even more astonishing scene.

Torracat ran quickly toward the direction of Blast Burn, then jumped high and threw itself toward Blast Burn.

And that Blast Burn actually stopped in front of Torracat.

And, this Blast Burn was constantly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And as Blast Burn gradually shrank, the bell sound became more urgent.

At this point, the viewers finally discovered the source of the bell sound.

It was actually the bell hanging on Torracat's neck.

And this bell was actually absorbing the flames; it even sucked the entire Blast Burn into it.

This... what is this!

【Steven: Does anyone know what item the bell hanging on Torracat's neck is?】

【Flint: Don't know; I don't even have this Pokémon Torracat, how could I possibly know?】

【Steven: Champion Cynthia, can I beat Flint up?】

【Cynthia: Feel free~】

【Professor Kukui: No, this bell is not an item; it is something Torracat is born with, but as far as I know, no Torracat's bell can achieve such an effect.】

【Sabrina: This means Ash is special~】

【Sabrina: Very interesting~ So Ash, you are a freak just like me; no wonder we can become good friends.】

Sabrina looked at the light screen very happily.

Who wins or loses doesn't matter; she only cares about Ash.

Originally, she had always thought she was a freak in the human world.

Now it seems.

Ash is also the same kind of person as her.

No wonder she could agree to Ash's battle back then.

It turns out everything was destined by heaven~

……

In the scene—

Not to mention the Champions.

Even the person involved, Professor Kukui, was very confused.

As the professor of Alola, no one understands the Alola starters better than him.

As far as he knows, Torracat doesn't have the Flash Fire ability.

But he couldn't explain the scene in front of him right now; what kind of existence is this?

Originally, Professor Kukui was ready to accept victory.

But everything happening in front of him shattered everything he had prepared.

This is too unscientific!

No! This has long been beyond what science can explain!

Ash, is this Torracat of yours illegal!

(Ash: I'm not cheating! I picked it up on the road!)

Torracat, which had absorbed all the flames of Blast Burn, landed on the ground.

The bell hanging on Torracat's neck was already surrounded by a ball of red flames.

Just when everyone thought the flames had been completely absorbed.

Torracat revealed a painful expression.

Seeing Torracat's reaction, Professor Kukui finally breathed a slow sigh of relief.

"Ash, your ideas are truly wild, but you seem to have forgotten that this is Blast Burn released by Incineroar; it's not that easy to absorb."

How could the ultimate move of the Fire-type starters be so simple, not to mention the person who released it was Professor Kukui.

In terms of strength, Professor Kukui right now stands at the pinnacle of all of Alola.

Professor Kukui's voice had just fallen.

Black smoke came out of the bell on Torracat's neck.

Being able to absorb a portion of Blast Burn's power was already its limit.

Any more and its body wouldn't be able to handle it.

Seeing the situation was like this.

"Meow"

Torracat looked back at its trainer.

Ash understood in a second,

He took out a Poké Ball and recalled it into the Poké Ball amidst Torracat's reluctant gaze.

"It seems Torracat has reached its limit."

"That's not necessarily true; Torracat just went back to rest! It's ready to have a showdown with Incineroar."

"Hahaha, what an interesting little guy."

Next!

Ash sent out his second Pokémon!

Red light flashed, and Ash's second Pokémon appeared on the field.

Unlike Torracat.

This time it was a dog!

After the red light dissipated, an orange and white Pokémon appeared on the field.

It was exactly the Dusk Form Lycanroc.

A Lycanroc in a form exclusive to Ash!

【Professor Kukui: It's actually a Lycanroc I've never seen before; could it be that besides the Midday and Midnight forms of Lycanroc, Lycanroc actually has other forms?】

【Gladion: So cool! Mom, I want one too!】

【Professor Burnet: Ash, the surprises you've brought me are truly too many; besides the Flash Fire Torracat,

you actually let me see a third form of Lycanroc! I'm starting to look forward to your Alola journey!】
