he hadn’t brought it out of Aindook to subject it to hellish training—it couldn’t endure that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Luo Mu and Source understood each other perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though this was a Double Battle, the exhibition had largely abandoned complex strategy and mind games; both sides chose rosters built for pure visual spectacle and brute force, catering to non-Trainer spectators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only intense sound effects and physical collisions could truly excite the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Truly, the younger generation is formidable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Source gazed at Luo Mu’s face—far younger than his own, or even those of Wallace and Wallace—and a determined glint flashed in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Looks like I won’t gain the upper hand without using it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Source’s eyes suddenly blazed with deep intensity as he removed his captain’s hat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—he flipped it over!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, centered on the underside of the brim, rested a peculiar round stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a Mega Stone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ride the wind with me, my old companion—Mega Evolution!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Source lightly touched the Mega Stone; brilliant light erupted from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This item was something Source had found by chance on an unnamed island during a recent voyage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After using his access to Hoenn League archives and through his own research, he’d uncovered this new form of evolution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he’d planned to save this trump card for the Champion League after the upcoming Contesta, to face any of the top Champions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now he changed his mind—he’d use it here, under the eyes of the world, even if it meant exposing his trump card early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too costly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed winning this exhibition would make him stronger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From Flygon’s body, another identical round stone emerged, releasing chains of light that connected to the Mega Stone in Source’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before countless stunned spectators, a radiant light of evolution enveloped Flygon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can Flygon evolve again!?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the composed and calm Tong couldn’t hold back her cry from the audience seats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the light, Flygon’s body rapidly transformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its split wings fused into one massive crescent-shaped dragon wing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its head, neck, torso, and tail grew slimmer; the triangular wings on its face extended dramatically; its limbs retracted, making its form far more aerodynamic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar—!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mega Flygon roared to the sky, violent air currents exploding around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood-stained crescent—the undisputed top-tier Mega form—Mega Flygon, present!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Ho-Oh felt its very life tier suppressed by this form of Mega Flygon; its power level, judged by aura alone, was clearly inferior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From Mega Flygon, it sensed a pressure akin to Dragonite’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, Luo Mu was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the current Pokémon world, aside from a few ancient families, those who controlled Mega Evolution were exceedingly rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Wallace and Wallace hadn’t mastered it yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—Source had just given him a major surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I almost regret not sending Swampert and the others—they’d have loved this fight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu muttered under his breath, a spark of determination igniting in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You won’t yield in the skies, will you? Then let’s make a spectacle!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So what if he was outmatched?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hadn’t he himself once risen from weakness to victory? To give up the moment he sensed inferiority? That was never Luo Mu’s way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brave Bird!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Body Slam!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The divine bird and the giant dragon exchanged a glance, their bodies wreathed in azure flames, then collided without a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——Yet even outsiders could see that after its evolution, Dragonite had completely dominated the Flareon, which had previously matched it evenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below, Axew and Victini were also not idle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They not only launched attacks against their opponents to gain a two-on-one advantage, but also occasionally, under their Trainers’ commands, disrupted the intense aerial battle above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This had always been a doubles battle; even if the two sides might not achieve any outstanding 1+1>2 synergy, they still couldn’t afford to neglect any possible opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the commentator was already bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Genji had ordered Dragonite to use the Normal-type “Body Slam”—so why was the energy around it manifesting as violent gusts?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This completely fell outside his area of knowledge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Mu, however, understood the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Mega Evolution, Dragonite’s ability had shifted from “Intimidate” or “Overgrow” to “Flying Skin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its effect: Normal-type moves became Flying-type moves, with a noticeable boost in power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this ability, Mega Dragonite had become one of the most formidable Pokémon among all Mega Evolutions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another fierce collision sent Flareon flying several meters back, its expression grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from facing Dragonite, this was the first time it had been outmatched in aerial combat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet compared to that earlier time when it had barely been able to fight back, it was no longer passive—years of stagnant growth had clearly surged forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with its current strength alone, it still lacked the edge needed to defeat Mega Dragonite, whose power had increased nearly as much as Gyarados’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, Flareon could rely on its longer stamina and HP to trade blows with Dragonite—but now, that was becoming difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flareon’s HP was not infinite, and Luo Mu, who had knocked it down before, knew this better than anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——So when a Pokémon was at a disadvantage in battle, it was up to its Trainer to carve out a path to victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the clash between Flareon and Mega Dragonite, while remotely commanding Victini and Axew to grapple, Luo Mu waited for the perfect moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was searching for an opening—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an experienced top-tier Trainer, Genji understood this too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the alertness rising in his mind did not prepare him for how insane the opening Luo Mu sought appeared to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Luo Mu’s deliberate maneuvering, the point of collision between Flareon and Mega Dragonite drew closer and closer to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until, due to the chaotic side effects after Dragonite’s Outrage, Axew—its stamina fading—was exposed within Flareon’s attack range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Victini, use Psychic to lock Axew’s movements! Flareon, Brave Bird!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Luo Mu’s command, Flareon nearly exposed its entire back to Mega Dragonite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in return, Axew, struggling desperately under Victini’s Psychic, was now completely locked in by Flareon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flareon, having taken another direct hit from Mega Dragonite’s claw, was wreathed in brilliant golden flames as it slammed into Axew!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Axew, having endured repeated blows, bit down hard on Flareon—but the accumulated damage left it seeing stars, its massive body tilting sideways before crashing to the ground with a thud, its eyes spiraling into swirls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Axew is down! Luo Mu has taken down Genji’s first Pokémon!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The commentator’s excited voice echoed through the entire Battle Tower via the speakers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“—But now its back is completely exposed to Dragonite!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the commentator’s seemingly regretful tone, Ash could no longer hold back—he shot to his feet, shouting, “Oh no!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Dragonite appear behind Flareon at blinding speed, his heart dropped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even “Quick Dodge Master” Ash judged that Flareon had no time to evade at this distance!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dragonite, Max Airstrike!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he didn’t understand why Luo Mu had exposed such a massive opening to eliminate Axew—clearly on the verge of collapsing under Victini’s pressure—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Genji, having seized the chance, would never be foolish enough to let it slip away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the danger closing in from behind, Flareon tried to turn and counter—but the distance was too short.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a violent explosion, Flareon’s body was blasted upward, crashing onto the platform with a dull thud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its vitality plummeted rapidly, nearly following Axew into defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Though Axew has been eliminated, Flareon’s condition has also hit rock bottom, and Victini’s state isn’t much better—while Dragonite is growing stronger with every strike.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is Luo Mu’s run over—!?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The commentator’s questioning tone, for many of Genji’s supporters, was practically a declaration of victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some were already reaching for champagne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring outside noise was a Captain’s basic skill; even as victory seemed near, Genji remained fully focused on every detail on the platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>——He noticed that under Luo Mu’s command, Victini had moved beside Flareon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Genji’s mind instantly flashed through several possible reasons for Luo Mu’s action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Healing? Defensive support?
