Chapter 303:
"Battling Tapu Koko?!"
Dr Kukui imdiately grew tense.
As the Guardian Deity of Alola’s lele Island, Tapu Koko rarely engaged in battles with other Pokémon except against Ultra Beasts.
But any Pokémon that could make it battle must be extraordinary!
He quickly asked, "Where is the location?"
But soon, a live video link was sent over.
In the video, one was Tapu Koko, and the other was a pink, humanoid Pokémon he had never seen before.
"This is..."
Dr Kukui was shocked.
As a professor, he was confident he knew the vast majority of Pokémon, even from other regions.
But now, he had absolutely no knowledge of this Pokémon!
And this Pokémon’s strength....
Electric light flashed across the sky. Their Guardian Deity, Tapu Koko, covered in electrical energy, charged towards the humanoid Pokémon like a bolt of lightning at an incredible speed.
That was Spark!
Yet, in the eyes of this humanoid Pokémon, this speed comparable to lightning was easily dodged.
"Was that Teleport? No, it is not teleportation. It was the move Agility!"
Incredibly fast Agility!
Kukui found it unbelievable.
The reaction speed just now was almost instantaneous!
"Koko!"
Tapu Koko, having missed its first strike, was also montarily stunned.
It hadn’t expected this Pokémon’s speed to be so high!
It imdiately tried to turn around for another attack, but as it turned, its body seed to freeze, held in place.
And in the next mont, the humanoid Pokémon that had just flashed away already had a bluish-green energy sphere condensed in its hand.
Psychic control, plus an Energy Ball condensed from natural energy!
In this combo, Tapu Koko was hit directly just as it broke free.
The Energy Ball exploded with a deafening blast of smoke.
Dr. Kukui, watching the first exchange where Tapu Koko was completely outmatched by this Pokémon, couldn’t help but let his jaw drop!
Was this for real?
"Tapu Koko!"
Tapu Koko waved a hand, dispersing the smoke instantly.
Its eyes now held only wariness as it looked at its opponent.
The mont it was caught by the Psychic earlier, although it realized imdiately and struggled free with all its might,
it still hadn’t had ti to bring its hands together to form its protective shield before the Energy Ball hit it.
And now, the opposing humanoid Pokémon seed to have gauged Tapu Koko’s strength, its eyes carrying a condescending glint.
Moreover, it actually spoke aloud, "You’re still lacking!"
"Tapu Koko!"
Tapu Koko clapped its hands together, the dull thud imdiately erupting into a thunderous noise.
*Boom!*
The entire sky also darkened at that mont.
Dense storm clouds flickered overhead.
"Oh no, Tapu Koko is getting serious!" Kukui’s expression grew even more grave.
He could feel the storm clouds over lele Island spreading.
As the clouds spread, all the residents of Alola seed to sense sothing was wrong.
"That’s strange, why is there thunder now?"
Kiawe, on his way ho after delivering Moomoo Milk, couldn’t help but have his Charizard fly a bit lower.
"Why is it raining at this ti?"
Kiawe grumbled.
On the other islands, Tapu Lele, Tapu Bulu, and Tapu Fini simultaneously opened their eyes, looking curiously towards lele Island.
They all sensed the powerful energy fluctuation from Tapu Koko.
They didn’t understand why Tapu Koko would suddenly unleash such a massive energy surge.
But that didn’t stop them from wanting to go investigate.
The thunderclouds roared, electric snakes darting in and out of the clouds.
Under Dr. Kukui’s watchful gaze, the humanoid Pokémon surveyed its surroundings.
A flicker of interest appeared in its eyes.
"So this is your true strength?"
anwhile, Tapu Koko was now enveloped in electrical energy. Intense yellow sparks, combined with the Electric Terrain.
The thunderclouds above also began gathering power at this mont.
Thunder!
Plus Discharge!
Pillars of lightning, ters thick, now descended like apocalyptic fury. Combined with the electric light covering Tapu Koko’s body, they surged towards the humanoid Pokémon in a circular, enclosing motion.
The raging thunder seed intent on engulfing it completely!
’This ti, it shouldn’t be able to dodge, right?’
This thought flashed through Kukui’s mind.
Watching for a while, he had noticed that although the two Pokémon were battling, they were very asured in their strikes, not carelessly letting the aftermath of their attacks hit the ground.
On the contrary, they subconsciously kept the battlefield in the sky.
This didn’t seem like a grudge match, but more like a Pokémon battle between Trainers.
This relaxed him sowhat, and he secretly cheered for Tapu Koko in his heart.
After all, no matter what, Tapu Koko was their Alolan Guardian Deity.
The thunderous light surged, enveloping the humanoid Pokémon. Just before it was fully covered, he only saw a pink energy barrier envelop it, then it completely disappeared within the electrical radiance.
Dr. Kukui stared intently at the screen.
Tapu Koko was breathing slightly heavily, watching the area engulfed in lightning.
It had used its full power in that last strike. If even that couldn’t defeat the opponent, then the outco of the ensuing battle was already foreseeable.
No matter how intense the lightning, it would eventually fade.
And where the lightning dissipated, the humanoid Pokémon slowly revealed its form.
Its hands bore so scorch marks, but its fighting spirit was still soaring.
"Good, good! I don’t even know how long it’s been since I was last injured!"
"Hahaha...."
It laughed boldly, its laughter echoing across the sky. Its fingers moved gracefully, and a vast amount of psychic energy seed to pour forth from its body at that mont.
Within the roaring thunderclouds, it was as if a giant hand was stirring, churning the dense storm clouds into chaos until they were scattered, revealing the sunset dusk once more!
Tapu Koko stared in astonishnt at this scene. It was the Guardian Deity unique to the Alola region, yet at this mont, it actually couldn’t contest this Pokémon for control over the sky?
Its astonishnt hadn’t even ended when a strong sense of crisis swept over its heart.
