Pokemon: This Ash Is Too Versatile Chapter 159 - 105: Evolution in Rage, Primeape! Shedding the

Ash: ...

Alright, he took back his earlier thoughts about Mankey’s mind being as clever as his. How long have they been communicating now, and he’s just realizing he can understand Pokemon language?

"Haha!" Oh well, it doesn’t matter, let’s get started!

Mankey quickly put this matter aside. It’s true that humans who understand Pokemon language are strange, but right now, he’s more interested in Ash’s hat and the delicious food nearby.

Originally, he planned to ambush Ash, snatch Ash’s hat, grab so food over there, and then make a quick escape.

But unexpectedly, before he could even get the hat, he was caught directly, let alone getting to eat any of that food.

Fortunately, this human wasn’t too bad. After catching him, he was still willing to negotiate terms. Mankey wasn’t an ungrateful Pokemon; if he won against this human, he would just mooch a al, and as for the hat, he’d return it after wearing it a bit.

Mankey was already visualizing the scene of returning the hat to Ash gracefully after winning, while Ash was selecting his opponent for the battle against Mankey.

"It’s decided, you, Charleon," Ash pointed confidently at Charleon.

"Huh? Roar!!" Charleon seed surprised to be chosen and didn’t react at first.

After all, normally, Kirlia would have already taken the stage by now, leaving no opportunity for him to intervene.

This ti, Kirlia didn’t co out, and Ash had designated him instead.

So, excitedly, Charleon roared and leapt in front of Ash, looking at Mankey with fighting spirit.

Kirlia just gave a light snort, not bothered by not being called to the stage.

Smart as she was, she understood Ash’s thoughts; Mankey was sowhat weaker than her and primarily relied on physical combat.

With her superpowers, she could easily counter Mankey; if they really fought, he wouldn’t stand a chance against her, nor would there be any opportunity for growth.

This was why Charleon was chosen to fight since Charleon loved close combat battles the most. That’s why Ash let him battle this ti instead of Pikachu or Wartortle.

The big doofus was quite happy, thinking she didn’t compete with him.

On the field, Charleon was already tangled in battle with Mankey, extending his sharp claws, covered in a layer of green energy—Dragon Claw!

After evolving into Charleon, he learned skills related to Dragon Type. Although he’s not of the Dragon Attribute, Charleon loved the feeling of close combat, favoring hand-to-hand combat!

Dragon Claw and tal Claw were skills he tended to use in close combat.

Charleon swung his verdant Dragon Claw, harshly targeting Mankey, while Mankey used Fury Swipes, hoping for quick swipes to confuse Charleon’s vision.

However, the strength of Dragon Claw was overwhelming, rendering any flashy skills useless under such heavy strikes.

Mankey’s distracting strikes were directly blown away by Charleon’s claw, and the other claw landed firmly on Mankey.

In just one encounter, Mankey was sent flying, suffering significant damage.

In a direct confrontation, Mankey was no match for Charleon, even with Charleon still carrying a burden.

But in terms of level and Ability Value, he was overwhelmingly superior to Mankey; even in a burdened state, Mankey was no match.

"Roar!" Charleon snorted lightly, with two puffs of smoke from his nostrils, displaying a contemptuous expression.

This is it?

The taunt from Charleon did not go unnoticed by Mankey, and instantly, a raging fire ignited within him!

He was one of the elite among the Mankey species, with only a handful capable of battling him!

And now, to have fallen to the point of being scorned—intolerable!

Suddenly, brilliant light emanated from his body!

Ash and Charleon paused—this is... an evolution???

After a mont, the light faded, and a much more robust Mankey appeared before everyone!

Compared to Mankey, his evolved form, Priape, had beco sturdier in limbs and body, his long tail had disappeared, and both wrists and ankles bore a set of black iron rings,

"It actually evolved; as expected, this Mankey is extraordinary! Charleon, be careful!" Ash comnted with a sigh, his expression turning serious as well,

Though the evolved Priape had only reached the Advanced Peak level, evolution itself represented an increase in Species Value, and with Charleon still burdened, this was no easy matchup.

"Roar!!"

Charleon roared to the sky, spewing flas, brimming with fighting spirit!

If it were that easy to solve, it wouldn’t be fun at all!

After evolution, Charleon also sensed the threat posed by the opponent, and thus wasn’t rash in his movents. The evolved Priape was the sa.

Priape is a temperantal Pokemon, but now he controlled his anger from the heart, seriously observing Charleon’s weaknesses without impulsively attacking.

"Charleon, Dragon Claw!" Finally, it was Ash who couldn’t hold back anymore, commanding Charleon to initiate the attack!

Charleon roared, approached swiftly, with verdant Dragon Claws forming on his paws once more.

Seeing this, Priape imdiately countered, blocking Charleon’s Dragon Claw.

He threw punches, forming countless shadows in the air, even producing bursts of cutting air sounds!

The whirling fist shadows surged towards Charleon, who swung his Dragon Claw horizontally. The previously unstoppable Dragon Claw was repelled by the opponent’s fists!!

Off-guard, Charleon took several heavy punches from the opponent, resulting in several bruises!

The evolved Priape was on a completely different level compared to before; Charleon vaguely struggled to withstand him in direct confrontation.

"Is this... Close Combat? Charleon, create distance!" Ash recognized Priape’s skill—a major Fighting Type move, Close Combat!

Previously, Priape hadn’t learned this skill; who would’ve thought he’d grasp it right after evolving!

This Priape indeed had exceptional Talent, but now wasn’t the ti to admire it.

Pitting Dragon Claw against Close Combat was too much; it was vital to avoid its edge now.

But Charleon’s eyes showed reluctance; the opponent he easily launched just now requires him to dodge? How could he accept that?

However, Ash’s position in his heart was extrely important, so he obediently listened to Ash, starting to evade, and quickly creating distance from Priape with a few leaps.

"You want to trade blows with him, eh Charleon?"

"Roar!" Charleon nodded.

"Then take off your burden and show him your true strength!" Ash knew Charleon wanted to go toe-to-toe, but in his current state, it was impossible to beat the opponent directly.

The Assault Vest imposed restrictions on Charleon in all aspects; it forced him to exert more effort during training and battle, but the improvent it brought was substantial.

Moreover, when facing weaker opponents, it provided a balanced combat experience.

However, against an equal and freshly evolved Priape, Charleon had to remove his burden.

Upon hearing this, a flash of excitent crossed Charleon’s face, and he slashed his shoulders with his claws, removing the Assault Vest, which landed with a thud!

Priape, about to attack again, was startled by that thud.

He glanced at Charleon and then at the vest under Charleon’s feet with a perplexed expression, seemingly saying—were you just fighting with that thing on?
