606 Chapter 606 Faster and faster
...
ka ka ka—
The cracked ice sound.
The snow rolled and fell, and a large gap leading everywhere appeared in Natsu's line of sight.
The most important thing is not that gap.
It was a Pokemon that was slowly coming out of that gap.
What appeared was a Pokémon with a light blue body, walking upright on two legs, with long slender and strong arms, and its sharp claws dragging on the snow, creating deep scratches.
What was most eye-catching were the ice crystals on his back which were dense and hard.
Underneath the ice crystals, even a metallic luster could be seen faintly.
Blue eyes stared at Beedrill, a triangular head and mouth slightly opened, and in every breath small ice crystals coming out of his mouth.
Sandslash!
More precisely, Alolan Sandslash!
Unlike the ordinary Sandslash attribute Ground-Type.
Sandslash in Alola's form has two attributes the Ice-Type and Steel-Type.
Since the Alola Region was included in the Island Region and had dense vegetation, Water-Types and Grass-Types had the most Pokemon.
In order to survive, after a long period of reproduction and change, Sandslash had to move into an iceberg.
Over time, the attributes and appearance have changed.
And this Alolan Sandslash was different from the Alolan Sandslash that Natsu knew.
His body was even bigger, with a height of more than two meters, a far cry from an ordinary Sandslash which could only reach around one point two meters.
Plus a special aura that vaguely surrounded him.
There's no doubt that this Alolan Sandslash is a Totem Pokemon!
"Saaannn!" Sandslash roared as he moved towards Natsu and Beedrill.
Huge amounts of snow rolled down, bringing Totem's breath assaulting the senses.
"Kaazz!"
"Chaa!"
Alakazam, Togekiss, and the other Pokémon sense the threat posed by Sandslash, and selfless hostility towards Natsu, immediately appears in front of Natsu.
"Beer!"
However.
The dark red air lingered, and Beedrill, who looked like Sandslash on the opposite side, gently pushed Alakazam and Togekiss who were in front of him.
Come to the forefront.
"Zam?"
"Chakk?"
The two Pokémon stared blankly at Beedrill, who flew forward.
Do not know why.
They thought today's Beedrill was so domineering.
When there was the previous battle, Beedrill was also the one who charged forward.
But today, they felt Beedrill was very different.
Not only because of the Boss's aura above him, but also from an indescribable feeling.
It's like.
Beedrill had just moved forward and they thought Beedrill had won.
That's a strange feeling.
Aegislash stuck his head out from Natsu's shadow.
He stared straight at Beedrill, his eyes flashing with excitement.
That's how it feels, that's how it should be!
Aegislash's flamboyant personality, what he wants is this kind of domineering spectacle, making the opponent feel very difficult to deal with, but he also feels that he has no way to do it.
"Oss~~"
"Evv~~"
"Moonf~~"
There is a small star in their eyes.
They had to admit that they were currently being overtaken by Beedrill's aura.
Natsu squinted.
Beedrill's heart just got changed.
And here comes the "Testing Stone".
Even though the Ice-Type and Steel-Type Alolan Sandslash could restrain Beedrill, as long as it was overcome, the confidence Beedrill had just built would become even stronger!
Although.
Totem Sandslash on the opposite side didn't seem weak at all, and might even have reached the quasi-Elite level.
Sandslash's eyes also moved with Beedrill's movements.
Clear.
It was Boss Beedrill's aura stimulating him as a Totem.
Like when Beedrill met Totem Vikavolt.
One mountain cannot be divided by two tigers.
Bosses and Totems too!
"Saan!"
Totem Sandslash growled, his sharp claws smashed into the ground, rolling up a large mass of snow, like sharp arrows, shooting swiftly.
Alolan Sandslash, due to the Attribute change, the body became heavier and the movement speed became slower.
But because of his adaptation to the ice and snow environment, his strong limbs on the snow and ice, when the limbs are used together, will move faster than his speed on land.
In addition, snow moving as it moves will draw a very beautiful parabola in the air.
The biggest dream of many famous photographers is to take a set of fast-moving Alolan Sandslash in the snow.
Just because Alolan Sandslash was rare and dangerous, no one had done it yet.
But now.
This was definitely not the time to be appreciating the beauty of the Totem Sandslash as it moved through the ice and snow.
Wooos—
Beedrill's compound eyes stared.
Feathers vibrate.
The strong current left behind several golden arcs.
In terms of the level of the contest, it is not inferior to Icirrus flying behind Totem Sandslash.
The most important.
Beedrill once again used speed as if there was an electromagnetic pulse behind it.
as quick as lightning!
The two Pokémon were approaching quickly.
In the blink of an eye, they appeared in front of each other.
Totem Sandslash swung his sharp claws, instantly forming ice crystals above it, and attacked Beedrill unreservedly.
Beedrill also showed no signs of weakness, wielding a long needle, covered with rich earthy yellow energy.
bang!!
First round crash.
It's pretty much the same.
Natsu's eyes narrowed slightly behind, from Totem Sandslash's first attack, to judge the opponent's strength.
It really is quasi-Elite!
That first collision, is it still comparable?
Natsu's mind was racing, sifting through the possibilities.
At the same time, Totem Sandslash was a little surprised that Beedrill was able to fight himself, but his second attack was immediately his.
It's coming!
In the face of the opponent's attacks like chain attacks, Beedrill who used "Drill Run" could only raise his other hand to block.
bang!
Wait!
However, Beedrill's body seemed to retreat uncontrollably.
The immense power made his arms go numb.
Stronger!
This was Beedrill's direct assessment.
However.
It's not the end of Totem Sandslash this time.
Totem Sandslash kicking his feet hard on the ground, and his body flew up in the air for a while, and the sharp and sharp ice thorns on his back were transferred towards Beedrill.
"Double Team!"
At this time, Natsu's voice echoed in Beedrill's head.
Beedrill barely hesitated, his body twitching and tightening rapidly.
bang!
The Totem Sandslash attack fell on Beedrill's body.
It's just that Beedrill turned into a bubble and disappeared instantly, and Totem Sandslash's attack also failed.
Triple Axel!
At the last moment, Natsu identified the move used by Totem Sandslash, a move that wasn't very common.
The base strength of the formidable Triple Axel is only 20 points, which also explains why Beedrill was able to collide with the quasi-Elite Totem Sandslash for the first time and balance out.
But Triple Axel's specialty is...
The maximum number of attacks of this move has three stages. The formidable power of the second attack is twice the basic formidable strength, and the third attack is tripled!
Although tripling the strength was still not very high, but adding up, it was quite impressive.
And the three attacks were uninterrupted, easy to create the illusion of "not too strong" for the opponent, leading to the formidable power amplification repeatedly, which became beyond expectations.
Moreover, the strength of this Totem Sandslash is stronger than Beedrill's, even if the strength is not strong, it cannot be easily tolerated.
"Hurry, but still not fast enough, faster!"
"Beer!"
Beedrill, who dodged the attack, took a deep breath, his whole body mingled with a touch of white downwind airflow.
Hurry up and the body flashed.
Leave an arc in the air before it disappears from Totem Sandslash's sight.
Even though this Totem Sandslash can be very fast in the snow.
But compared to Beedrill which has entered full condition, it is still slower.
clang! !
"Saan!"
Totem Sandslash made a sharp turn, claws swirling with a metallic sheen.
However.
It responds faster.
But the sharp tip of his claws was well avoided by Beedrill.
Woos——
As he was retreating in a "zigzag" shape, Beedrill had a halo of "Agility" on his body.
One word.
Fast!
At this time, Beedrill, although only the Gym Leader level, but if it is only a matter of speed, the ordinary semi-Elite level is not necessarily his opponent.
Natsu names Beedrill in this state, the "State of Extreme Speed".
The speed himself, coupled with the current drifting down the wings, formed an impact blessing akin to a simple electromagnetic pulse, making Beedrill more than one order faster.
As Natsu said.
Fast enough.
So.
Slip it!
With one punch, Beedrill didn't want to fight back, so he pulled away and left.
bang!!
This time it's Totem Sandslash's profile.
Shua!!
Totem Sandslash's attack failed.
Even though it was more reactive this time and had a shorter attack range than flanking it, it couldn't hit Beedrill.
Because, Beedrill also continues to familiarize himself with his current condition.
bang!!
"Saaan!"
Totem Sandslash screamed, squeezing his eyes in pain.
He don't know why, but he felt like Beedrill was not only fast, but his attack power was getting stronger again and again.
gradually made it a little unbearable.
If Natsu knew about this doubt, he would definitely answer it with "enthusiasm".
Speed is power, learn it.
And, it's not just speed.
With the success of each attack, Beedrill's self-confidence was built more solidly, and the Boss' aura that always surrounded him also became stronger, and his attacks were not small to a certain extent.
"SAAAN!!"
Totem Sandslash couldn't take it anymore.
He couldn't stand Pokemon that were clearly weaker than himself, constantly provoking himself.
As a Totem, he could not tolerate such provocation.
With a roar, and a shallow blue Ice-Type energy rose from his body.
Suddenly the snow on the top of the mountain became fiercer.
In Icirrus, there are ice shards one after another.
Hail!
Totem Sandslash uses "Hail", which completely changes the environment of a snowy day to hailstorm weather.
And this.
It also made this Totem Sandslash's speed soar.
Characteristic Traits of "Slush Rush"!
When he saw this Totem Sandslash emerging from the ice and snow, but it couldn't be seen in the slightest, Natsu guessed that the Characteristic Trait of this Totem Sandslash should be "Slush Rush".
Slush Rush: Twice as fast in hail weather.
Natsu and Beedrill, however, weren't panicked by the situation.
Beedrill heard Natsu clearly
"Beedrill, Mega Evolution!"
for the meantime.
Totem Sandslash had gotten close to Beedrill with the increased speed brought by "Hail", but seeing Beedrill wrapped in the rich and colorful energy of Mega Evolution, he was getting away from him again.
When the Mega Evolution energy is completely gone.
"Beer!"
You will be twice as fast, right?
The most important.
Mega Beedrill after Mega evolution has reached the quasi-Elite level in terms of strength alone!
At first Beedrill couldn't defeat Totem Sandslash, but not now.
Woos—
once again disappeared from Totem Sandslash's sight.
This time it was completely lost.
The extreme speed allowed his figure to only see the bow leaping through the air, but was unable to catch its tracks.
The improvements of "Tailwind" and "Agility" had also reached an extreme.
bang!!
Totem Sandslash stumbled, nearly falling to the ground in his arms.
On Sandslas's back, a cross-shaped scar was conspicuous.
Mega Evolution is the perfect boost for a Pokémon like Beedrill.
You could even say that out of all the Pokémon that can Mega Evolve, none is more perfect than Mega Beedrill.
Whether it's from a change in appearance or a change in value.
Totem Sandslash was blinded.
It was kind of hard to believe what he was seeing.
He was already used "Hail" to increase its speed, but the gap between he and the other party was getting bigger and bigger?
And Mega Beedrill's attack was no longer a normal Tickle's tickle attack, causing him to feel an unusual pain.
Mega Beedrill evolves from Mega, though it lacks the "Sniper" Characteristic damage.
But his Characteristic "Adaptability" makes it more fault tolerant, and the continuous output capability becomes stronger.
bang!!
Another attack.
This time it was even more exaggerated from the front.
Totem Sandslash tilted his head, his jaw and stomach hurt, causing his eye sockets to redden.
Smells like being teased.
But that doesn't help.
This is something that has never been experienced before.
It felt not like fighting with an opponent, but with a ghost.
"Beer!"
Mega Beedrill is stagnant.
Improved "Sword Dance"!
He stared straight at Totem Sandslash.
The eyes tell it.
The next attack will be from the front.
"Sssaan!!" Totem Sandslash couldn't stand this provocation, and opened his arms, staring at the Mega Beedrill floating in the air not far away.
Ready!
The next second.
Like a regular appointment, both Pokémon move at the same time.
Seeing Totem Sandslash raise his hand forward, rich Ice-type energy gathered in front of him frantically, and a huge, hard, and sharp ice crystal prism quickly condensed.
Icicle Crash!
bang!!
However.
In Totem Sandslash's overwhelming gaze, his "Icicle Crash" had shot forward.
But there was still a severe pain in his stomach.
Look down.
Somehow, the Mega Beedrill's long needle actually appeared in front of him.
When?
bang!!
Totem Sandslash's body smashed into a pile of snow.
The standing Mega Beedrill took a deep breath.
The Boss aura that surrounded him was even a little richer.
"Beer!!"
Like a roar that swore over a sovereign, it spread across the entire peak of Mount Lanakila.
