As soon as the battle ended, all eyes were on Suicune.
Its performance in the second half was truly outstanding, achieving a 1v5 victory in a six-on-six all-out battle.
"So cool, Suicune is so cool!"
"That's right, keep praising me like that!"
After today's battle is broadcast, Ash's fame will surely spread throughout the Johto region.
Trainers recognized by Suicune are extremely dangerous to the people of the Johto region.
A certain Suicune fanatic was so jealous he was practically grinding his teeth to dust.
To avoid being surrounded by the enthusiastic crowd in the stands, Ash immediately took back his Eight Treasure Porridge and made a quick getaway after saying goodbye to the audience.
The clueless Nana saw Ash run away and, for some reason, started running after him too.
"Teacher, teacher, why are we running? And where are we going next?"
Ash quickly hid in the roadside bushes outside the arena, activating his Timid ability to hide.
Ash stood up as he watched the crowds of people rush over, while Nana, equally curious, squatted down beside him.
"Nana, why are you still following me?"
But Xiao Zhi glanced at her innocent little face again and thought, "Oh well, she's cute, let her follow me if she wants."
"I fielded two legendary Pokémon on the field, and if I didn't leave quickly after the match, I would be harassed to death by those terrifying reporters."
""
Ash learned his lesson once before on the Whirl Islands, and of course, he should save such an important opportunity for interviews and exposure for his own benefit.
He checked the time; according to the original plan, after his own match ended, he should go watch Shigeru's match.
Xiaoxia and the others must be heading to the venue over there as well.
"Nana, since you're here too, let's go watch the other matches together."
Xiao Zhi paid for the tickets, and Nana immediately and happily agreed.
On the way, Ash finally couldn't help but ask the question he had been very curious about during the competition.
"By the way, Nana, why did you want to use Rattata during the battle?"
"Are you trying to create the effect of angry front teeth?"
'
After all, the effect of the Wrathful Fangs skill is similar to being connected to Arceus's laws of creation.
In any situation, hitting the opponent will reduce their health by half.
It can be quite effective when used at crucial moments, especially in situations where the weak overcome the strong.
To Ash's surprise, Nana simply shook her head and said with an innocent look.
"No, Ash-sensei, it's just that I only have those six Pokémon in total."
"If I don't send out Rattata, I have no other Pokémon to use."
"What?!"
Xiao Zhi almost stumbled when he heard that.
This girl is truly skilled and daring to make it into the top 16 of the league tournament!
"Well, well done, Nana! I admire you even more now!" Ash took out a fitness guidebook he had left for the Philosopher's Gym and handed it to Nana.
The little girl immediately felt like she had found a treasure and happily accepted it.
Soon the two arrived at another arena and joined Xiaoxia and the others.
"Why are you only arriving now!"
Despite saying that, Xiaoxia quickly made way for Xiaozhi.
Xiaoxia, however, didn't care at all about his behavior of abducting little girls.
She had already booked the best row of the VIP seats for the battlefield through Pear Blossom, with plenty of seats available.
"We were a little delayed on the way. How are things now?" Xiaozhi sat down without any embarrassment, and his hands naturally went to Xiaoxia and Caidou's waists.
"The match is now in its middle stages, and Xiao Mao has a significant advantage."
Bea watched the battle intently and answered Ash's questions along the way, while Misty gave Ash a knowing, knowing look.
She retaliated by pinching him with her snow-white little hand, signaling that his relatives and friends were all around and that he was not allowed to use his special abilities to do bad things in public as he had done before.
But this time Ash really didn't intend to do anything bad; he watched his rival's battle very seriously.
On the battlefield, Shigeru's Nidoking seized the opportunity when the opponent's Pokémon used Rollout, unleashing a Ground-type Stomp from the sky.
He instantly stomped his opponent, Golem's, entire body into the ground.
This move was extremely effective, and the Golem was immediately rendered unable to fight.
"Damn it, how did he become so strong!"
Gary's opponent watched in disbelief as his third Pokémon fell, marking the start of the intermission.
So far in the competition, he hasn't been able to defeat even one of Gary's Pokémon.
He had already given it his all, while his opponent remained calm and collected.
"It's only been a year and a half since we fought at the Quartz Conference. I've also been traveling and getting stronger, so how come the gap between us has become so big?"
"I was clearly better than him before—"
Xiao Mao's opponent glanced at Xiao Mao, who was resting with his eyes closed.
"Just how rigorous the training this man underwent to get to where he is today!"
And this despicable guy actually brought a whole harem cheerleading squad, it's so enviable!
Yes, with the arrival of the League Tournament, Xiao Mao's girlfriend group, which had temporarily disbanded, has fully returned.
It's been a long time since I cheered for Xiao Mao; these beautiful older sisters have all put in twice the effort.
However, with so many girls showing off, the audience members looked at Xiao Mao, this despicable young master, with a slightly strange expression.
Xiao Gang, in particular, had red eyes.
"I really want an older sister too!!"
If Xiao Zhi wanted to, he could also form a cheerleading squad with girlfriends like that.
It's just a pity that his women are generally in high positions of power and are usually very busy.
Now, Ash only has Misty and Bea by his side, but the girls' daily encouragement calls never stop.
Although there are only Misty and Bea, there are many Gary and high quality Ash.
He's always surrounded by women, which makes him quite hated.
The halftime break ended quickly, and both sides returned to the battlefield.
Even with a significant advantage, Xiao Mao remained calm and composed, showing no signs of agitation.
This match might be an attempt to make up for past regrets.
Facing the same opponent, Gary still only sent out the same three Pokémon he had previously lost to in the second half.
This time, however, it was Xiao Mao who won a great victory.
"Match over!"
"Shigeru used only three Pokémon and defeated Kentaro without losing a single one, advancing to the quarterfinals!"
"As expected of the grandson of the famous Professor Oak, let's cheer for him."
After the commentary energized the audience, the big screen immediately focused on Professor Oak in the audience.
Professor Oak quickly waved his hands to cover his face.
"Hey, stop filming! It's all thanks to the kids' hard work. Don't make it sound like it was all my doing!"
"I never imagined Xiao Mao would become so strong," Xiao Xia exclaimed, clapping her hands in amazement.
At this moment on the field, after shaking hands with his opponent, Xiao Mao took a deep breath and pointed to the audience.
"Ash, now you're the only one left!"
"Hmph, try it if you can do it!" Ash retorted with a glare, showing no mercy.
Amidst the noise, the two seemed to have eyes only for each other, and the atmosphere gradually became more heated.
"Sister Xia, is this what people often call bromance between men?"
"It was adultery."
"Hey, shouldn't it be the bond between rivals?"
Faced with Nana's innocent questioning, the orange-haired beauty seriously spouted nonsense, almost making Ash faint.
However, at this moment, Xiao Gang suddenly stuck his hand in as well.
"Ash, Ash, your next opponent has been decided."
"Oh, who is it?"
