Pokemon: This Ash Is Too Versatile Chapter 165 - 108: Kirlia vs. Vileplume, the Bug-Like Psychi

"Great, Vileplu, use Razor Leaf!"

"Wahoo!!"

The massive flower on Vileplu’s head swung, and several sharp leaves rotated and flew out at extre speed!

A whistling sound pierced the air, as if the leaves were ripping through the air itself.

"Psychic!"

"Kirlia!" Kirlia extended both hands this ti, simultaneously releasing Vileplu from telekinetic control, instead channeling all the power onto the incoming leaves.

"Throw them back!"

The suspended leaves were imdiately flung back by the powerful Telekinesis; although they lacked the cutting power of when they first flew forth, they still retained substantial force.

"Using our own move against us, that’s sowhat naive, isn’t it?"

Seeing Ash’s response, Erika’s face displayed a sarcastic smile, then she waved her little hand to command, "Ignore it, use Sunny Day!"

Sunny Day?

Ash was montarily taken aback by this command, then recalled the ability he had noticed in Vileplu earlier, his expression changing swiftly.

"Stop her!" Upon hearing this, Kirlia’s eyes glead even brighter, and the Razor Leaf moved back towards Vileplu with even greater speed, hitting her!

However, the Grass Type Razor Leaf hardly hurt Vileplu at all—almost none, actually—which was why Erika had Vileplu ignore the Razor Leaf.

Yet at the mont Razor Leaf hit Vileplu, Kirlia vanished from her original position, reappearing instantly behind Vileplu.

By now, the stans of Vileplu already emitted a blazing fire, ready to release.

Kirlia clenched her small fist, fiery flas fiercely burning on her fist!

Fire Punch!

"Bang!!"

A cloud of smoke exploded at Vileplu’s location, the pitch-black haze obscuring everything.

Erika’s expression wasn’t too pleasant; she was prepared for Vileplu to take the Razor Leaf, but not for her to get hit by that Fire Punch!

What’s going on with this Kirlia? How did she manage to follow up Psychic with imdiate Teleport, and simultaneously use Fire Punch?

The smoothness and quickness of such skill transitions is unbelievable.

Through the thick smoke, a light erged, finally flying to the top of the gym, transforming into a dangling blazing sun!

Sunny Day was ultimately executed.

The smoke slowly dissipated, revealing Vileplu’s silhouette within.

Struck by the Fire Punch, Vileplu’s petals showed so charring, but firstly Fire Type isn’t Kirlia’s natural type, and secondly Ingrain was still recovering Vileplu’s Physical Strength, so she could withstand this hit.

"Vileplu, create distance!"

Close combat is not Vileplu’s forte, so when the smoke cleared, Erika imdiately had Vileplu increase the distance from Kirlia.

Actually, close combat shouldn’t be Kirlia’s forte either, but that Fire Punch scared Erika, making her fear this Kirlia specializes in Physical Attack, though a physically attacking Kirlia seems abstract...

Upon receiving Erika’s command, Vileplu lightly tapped her toes, elegantly broadening the gap between them, her speed seeming incredibly fast, surprisingly mismatched with her large physique.

The roots connecting her body to the ground were severed, and at her landing point, her body erged with several roots digging back into the ground, restoring her Physical Strength.

"You want to stop my Sunny Day, seems like you’ve guessed my Vileplu’s ability, huh."

Erika had so ti to chat with Ash after Vileplu widened the gap.

"Chlorophyll, under Sunny Day conditions, the speed doubles." Ash directly revealed the truth behind Vileplu’s rapid speed.

The ability Chlorophyll, under Sunny Day conditions, can double the speed of Pokemon who possess this ability!

That’s why Vileplu’s speed in distancing was so fast.

"Nice guess, but Sunny Day’s already been used, even if you guessed it, it’s too late."

Erika’s face carried a graceful smile, continuing to command Vileplu, "Vileplu, use Grassy Terrain."

"Kirlia, Light Screen, Reflect!"

The opponent is setting the terrain, Ash knows there’s no stopping it, so he sets up his walls!

The effect of Grassy Terrain is to restore a bit of Physical Strength to Pokemon on the ground at intervals, while boosting Grass Type damage by thirty percent, which is ideal for Erika because all her Pokemon are Grass Type.

While Ash’s Double Wall setup similarly benefits the upcoming Pokemon in battle.

With Kirlia’s extraordinary Spiritual Power, setting up both walls is feasible.

"Wahoo!!"

"Kirlia!!"

One foot stepping on the ground, the whole terrain shimred with lush green light, on the other side, a small hand waved, two transparent walls appeared before Kirlia, vanishing a second later.

Actually, the walls surrounded Kirlia; any attack directed at Kirlia would be blocked by Double Wall, halving the damage.

"To activate both walls at once, plus that simultaneous Teleport and Fire Punch, your Kirlia must possess multitasking abilities, both sides have made their preparations, now it’s ti for the showdown."

"Indeed, let’s determine the winner, Erika!"

Although his preparations aren’t as thorough as the opponent, Kirlia’s current setup is optimal.

"Vileplu, Solar Beam!" Erika waved her small hand, directly commanding Vileplu to unleash the ultimate Grass Type move, Solar Beam!

Under normal circumstances, Solar Beam requires one turn to charge before being used, but under the Sunny Day weather, it can be instantly fired!

Nurous lights aggregated atop Vileplu’s large flower petals, Ash remained motionless, intently observing the opponent’s actions.

The next instant, Solar Beam erupted, a golden devastating energy beam gushed forth, directly targeting Kirlia.

Too fast, Kirlia couldn’t dodge!

"Protect!"

With Ash’s command, a green barrier instantly appeared before Kirlia, shielding him from the teor-like devastating beam.

"Boom!"

The intense rumble resounded, but the majestic beam couldn’t breach the green barrier.

"Humph, let’s see how long you can maintain that defense, Vileplu, increase output!" Erika sneered lightly, opting to break Kirlia’s Protect.

There is an inherent level difference, combined with the boost from Grassy Terrain, and Solar Beam being the ultimate Grass Type move, Kirlia’s Protect couldn’t hold for long.

Sure enough, a dozen seconds later, the barrier before Kirlia began showing cracks, on the verge of breaking!

"Now’s the ti, Kirlia, Terrain Swap!"

"Kirlia!" Kirlia appeared strained, but her body still surged with Psychic power; the next mont, a Position Swap occurred, exchanging spots between Vileplu and Kirlia!

With Erika looking shocked, the Solar Beam shattered the barrier, then directly hit Vileplu!

"Is that even possible?!"

Executing Terrain Swap despite using Protect, this Kirlia must be a monster!

These Psychic Type moves are truly annoying, whether strong or not, they’re incredibly irritating!

Be it Teleport, Terrain Swap, or Double Wall, they’re all extrely troubleso!

"Don’t underestimate my Kirlia! Use Psychic!" Ash continued to press the attack.

Even with the boosted ultimate Grass Type move, Vileplu suffered low damage—she’s quad-resistant to Grass Type moves, but the power of Solar Beam distracted Vileplu, causing brief stagger, which was Ash’s intention.

Kirlia flashed blue, her imnse psychic power immobilizing Vileplu—the binding force surpassing telekinesis!

"Good, use Hypnosis!"

The decisive final move, Hypnosis!

If the opponent gets hit, the victory of this match will be sealed!
