"Such power and attack...are they scary?"
Ash's brows slowly raised, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
It is undeniable that this Miltank is indeed very powerful.
Whether it's his own explosive power or his training in the ultimate move of Rollout, it even exceeds the level of a Normal gym Trainer.
But~~~
"If we really were to compete in strength..."
Ash smiled and threw the last Pokémon ball into the field, "So far, it won't lose to any Pokémon."
Bang!!
"Heracross?!"
Mega Rhinoceros Beetle, Heracross, a powerful warrior with a jet-black armor, makes a stunning appearance!
As soon as Heracross came on the field, his eyes were fixed on Miltank who was rolling out continuously.
"Heracross, stop that Miltank."
Ash's order followed.
"You want my Miltank to stop? Don't be so naive, Ash!!"
Whitney, who was standing opposite, heard this and a confident smile appeared on her face again:
"I know you sent out Fighting Type Pokémon to deal with my Miltank."
"And this Heracross has also been trained very well."
"But, my Miltank's Rollout trick is the strongest!!"
"It won't be stopped so easily by you, stop..."
Whitney hadn't finished her words yet, and couldn't say them anymore.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes and mouth wide, staring at the scene in amazement.
"Hera~!!"
Heracross stretched out his arms and grabbed Miltank who was about to rush into his arms!!
"How is this possible?!!!"
Whitney stared at the scene in front of her in a daze, muttering to herself.
It seems that I still can't believe such a result.
You know, her Miltank has undergone special training, even if it is a Pokémon with a huge weight.
There are fighting-type Pokémon that can really restrain it, and Miltank has done targeted training for this!
Its Rollout skill has been practiced to the point where these Pokémon cannot resist it.
But why......
"Because Heracross is more powerful~"
Ash slowly revealed the simplest and only true reason.
Whether it is the effects of [Insect King] or [Mighty Warrior], both greatly enhance Heracross's resistance and strength.
In addition, Heracross has been constantly absorbing nectar to improve his physical fitness, and has been training madly under Ash.
Its power has long surpassed that of ordinary Pokémon.
Comparing the Fighting Type Pokémon that Miltank encountered before to Heracross is simply an insult!!
"Heracross, just pick up Miltank and fly into the sky.
Ash gave the final order, "Then use [Seismic Toss]!!"
[Seismic Toss], use gravity to throw Rival away, inflicting damage to Rival of the same level as yourself.
Not to mention that the way this move is presented in the anime is completely different.
Every time Ash lets Charizard use this trick, he uses it as the ultimate move to finally determine the outcome.
Whether it's against Gary's Blastoise or Ye Yue's Blaziken.
Or Articuno from Battle Factory who later challenged Battle Frontier, and Night Devil from Battle Pyramid~
Ash always lets Charizard use this move as the final ultimate move to end Rival.
Of course, sometimes I successfully knocked down the opponent, but sometimes I was knocked down~~~
And now, even if it causes the same damage as the same level, the current Heracross level is also not low!!
With the combination of the two, the power of [Seismic Toss] is already very impressive!
As for how impressive it is~~~
Anyway, defeating the Miltank in front of me is not a problem at all!!
"Once you fly to Soaring in the sky, you can never roll out again~~~"
Ash chuckled, looking at the Heracross flying Miltank to Soaring in the sky, and casually sentenced Miltank to death.
"No matter how powerful a trick is, if it cannot be used, it will be completely useless."
"It's over~~~"
Whoosh~!!
As Ash finished his words, in Soaring in the sky, Heracross held Miltank and performed a 360-degree cycle.
Then, when you go from top to bottom, it seems like you have reached the lowest point on earth~~~
boom!!!
Heracross and Miltank suddenly descended rapidly downwards, and then~~
Bang!!
Smashed down with a bang!!!
"Miltank?!!"
Whitney's worried and panicked voice also rang out.
She had never imagined that her Miltank Trump Card had already been used to win the game.
Surprisingly, the Pokémon that Ash picked up at random was easily cracked!
All of this was beyond her imagination.
So much so that when Miltank was picked up by Heracross and used [Seismic Toss], she had no time to react and give any useful coaching and commands.
Although, the order she gave seemed to be of no use~~~
"Miltank loses the ability to fight, Heracross wins!!"
As the smoke and dust from the ground gradually dissipated, Miltank's figure was embedded in the deep pit, and his two eyes were the most obvious vortex mosquito-repellent eyes with spiral patterns.
So, Ms. Cauliflower, the referee, was decisive and waved the flag towards the Heracross that had landed safely on the other side:
"Since all three Pokémon of Goldenrod Gym Trainer Whitney have lost their ability to fight, this time's gym challenge…
She announced loudly: "The winner is Ash from Pallet Town!!!"
"I lost?"
"I won~"
"Ash won again."
One result, three different feelings.
Whitney was still in a daze, but Ash was indeed a little happy.
Even though he had won so many victories, he was still satisfied with the result of getting the Badge.
As for Misty and Xiaogang at the back, they were almost immune to Ash's victory.
Apart from the usual congratulations and being happy for him, other than that...there really wasn't much of a surprise.
After all, Ash has even won the Conference Championship, so winning this gym challenge...isn't this a given?!
Ash won so many games against them that they developed a feeling:
'If Ash were to challenge the gym, he would definitely win!'
'It's just a matter of time~~~'
Well, both of them are already so calm and indifferent.
"It seems that my practice is still not enough~~~"
Whitney, who had come to her senses, sighed and put the Miltank away.
"Thank you for your hard work, Miltank."
She looked at the Pokémon ball and rubbed it gently with her hands: "Next, we have to keep working hard."
Whitney still attributed it to her own lack of practice, which led to Miltank's defeat.
However, this also indirectly shows that ~~~
"Ash, your strength is really not as good as Normal's!!"
Whitney's eyes sparkled as she raised her head again and looked straight at Ash:
"As expected of a Trainer I value, you have such strong abilities!!"
Whitney smiled, and then admitted defeat, taking out a brand new Badge from her arms.
"This is the proof of your success in the Goldenrod Gym Challenge. The regular badge is yours!"
The square yellow diamond-shaped badge looks plain and represents the ordinary Normal Type.
But the saffron pattern and color in the middle sparkled brightly under the sun.
It also indicates the prosperity and bustle of the Goldenrod city here.
"Regular Badge, I got it!!"
Ash celebrated with joy, and then placed the third badge on his chest inside his lapel.
This is the third badge I got after the Flying Type Zephyr Badge from Violet Gym and the Bug Type Hive Badge from Azalea Gym!!
Well, compared to the progress in Kanto Region, it is a lot slower.
There is no way, the distance between the nearby gyms is really not close, so it is just a good opportunity to enjoy the scenery along the way~~~
"Ash you really are a very good Pokémon Trainer~!"
Whitney, who had sent out a regular Badge, was still in awe: "I want to invite you to visit a nearby ranch, and we can talk about the experience of being a Pokémon Breeder together!!"
"Nearby ranch?"
"Well, to be more precise, it's the Miltank Ranch. There are a lot of good Miltanks there too!!"
A ranch that specializes in raising Miltanks... Does that mean you can taste the freshest "Moo Moo Milk"?
"Sure~"
In the narrow eyes of Whitney's expectation and excitement, Ash simply smiled and agreed.
So the next destination after leaving Goldenrod City is MooMoo Farm nearby!!
Miltank MooMoo Farm, owned by Howard, is located near Goldenrod City.
That is the Miltank ranch run by an acquaintance of Whitney. The Miltank milk produced here is more nutritious than the Normal variety and tastes better.
In the original timeline, Ash lost the first battle and was defeated three by Whitney's Miltank with Rollout. Then, he came to these ten Miltank ranches under the leadership of the gym leader Whitney.
Ash wants to understand Miltank to find out how to defeat them.
After being stopped from stealing food, Team Rocket started the roller machine to steal Miltank.
Ash commanded the Pokémon and used clever tactics to drive away Team Rocket.
It was at this time that Ash also thought of a move to deal with Miltank.
That is to let Cyndaquil and Totodile use their special moves to plow a deep furrow on the Ground.
Then let Pikachu hide in the ravine and wait for Miltank Rollout to come.
......…
Then use all your strength to push it into Soaring in the sky, and then use [Thunderbolt] to attack...
Well, from Ash's perspective now, this is not normal roughness at all.
Maybe even Whitney didn't expect that Ash would use such a method and accidentally lose the game~~~
But now, Ash used Heracross to take a frontal approach and successfully won the game with direct force pressure.
As a result, Ash also won Whitney's respect and took Ash and his group to the best Miltank Ranch nearby.
It was also here that the trio had the rare opportunity to taste the delicious MooMoo Milk.
This is 100% nutritious milk, and almost everyone in the Pokémon world has drunk this kind of milk.
The milk produced in this ranch does not taste as good as normal milk.
At least Xiaogang nodded repeatedly after drinking it, and then he specially bought some more.
Even Whitney smiled and promised Ash:
"If you want to drink this kind of mooing milk again in the future, feel free to contact me and I will mail it to you as soon as possible.
In that case, thank you very much!!
Ash thanked him without further ado, and then watched the process of Miltank producing milk.
Well, it is worth mentioning that Miltank is only female, and its corresponding male Pokémon is Tauros~~~
Both parties are cow-type Pokémon, so there's nothing wrong with that.
At this ranch, Ash and Whitney were tasting delicious milk while talking about Pokémon's Breeder and exchanging their experiences.
"Ding Dong~!"
A message also came from the Rotom Pokédex.
"Is this... an invitation from the Goldenrod City Broadcasting Tower?"
...THE
Ash's eyes flickered with interest as he looked at the message sent from Rotom's Pokédex.
But he hadn't forgotten that in the original timeline, Ash was dining in a restaurant after getting the regular Badge.
They met A Lan, the producer of the radio program, and were invited to the radio station for an interview.
At this time, Team Rocket also disguised themselves as Dodrio Hall's Actors and sneaked into the receiving tower.
and accidentally destroyed the tape of the radio drama.
As a last resort, Ash and Team Rocket helped re-record the radio drama at the request of the radio station.
During the recording process, Jessie improvised a line change, and with the help of Celebrity announcer Walnut, the radio drama was able to continue.
As a result, Team Rocket stole the Pokémon at the end of the recording, and Walnut and the cameraman also broadcast the entire process of Ash defeating Team Rocket.
The one who invited Ash this time was none other than Celebrity announcer Walnut.
At first, Ash was a little curious as to why she was the one who invited him instead of the original producer Alan~~~
"Of course I invited you here~!!"
Inside the luxurious and spacious recording studio, Celebrity announcer Kurumi, who had flaming red hair, a very cute face, and big round glasses, winked at Ash.
She said with a smile in that very sweet voice.
Well, it was indeed she who took the initiative to invite Ash.
Their program is called "Pokémon Street" and is produced by a producer named Alan.
It's no wonder that once it was broadcast, it actually achieved very good ratings.
In this program, there is a column that specifically invites people who have received official badges to be guests on the show.
As for why it is Ash~~~
That's of course because this celebrity broadcaster, Walnut, is very close to Ash and they have a very good relationship.
And that person is naturally...
"That's me!!"
Professor Oak Laboratory in Pallet Town, during lunch break, Professor Oak turned on the radio, sipped his tea and listened to Walnut's program, feeling very content.
Have fun.
Kurumi is the celebrity announcer of the broadcast tower, and even Kanto Region has her fans.
Kurumi's studio is the first studio on the 4th floor. She and Professor Oak once co-hosted Professor Oak's Pokémon lecture.
Later in the chapter about the pseudo-Professor Oak, during the Pokémon Sawadae showdown.
It was also she who went to Huibi Town with Professor Oak to record the program.
But the two people pretending to be Me First arrived, and finally they drove away Team Rocket with the help of Ash and his group.
From these aspects, her relationship with Professor Oak is not as good as Normal's.
Then it is understandable to invite Ash who got the badge.
Of course, the main reason was that Ash himself was also very angry.
Won the Conference Champion title of the Pokémon Official Alliance in a row.
First it was the Indigo Plateau Conference in the Kanto Region, then the Orange Islands Winners Cup, and now the goal is set on the Silver Conference in the Johto Region.
And I have already collected three badges~~
This in itself is a big attraction!!
If it was the normal Ash, who didn't have many achievements, he wouldn't make such a big fuss.
So, when he learned that Ash had taken the regular badge of the Goldenrod Gym, he was already in the Goldenrod Gym.
Hu Tao couldn't wait to invite him to be a guest on the show! 口!.
