Unbelievable!
It was actually Baxcalibur!
The spectators instantly became excited.
Even among Dragon-type pseudo-legendaries, Baxcalibur was an exceptionally rare Pokémon.
Its unique combination of Ice and Dragon typing was shared only with the legendary Dragon Pokémon Kyurem.
Furthermore, Baxcalibur normally inhabited remote polar regions.
Naturally, sightings of it were extremely rare.
The spectators' cheers and screams rang out without end.
Their excitement instantly reached its peak.
It had to be said.
Watching Shiko's matches was an incredible visual spectacle!
The price of admission had definitely been worth it!
Meanwhile, Okada's expression became even uglier.
Against an Ice-type Baxcalibur, it would be even more difficult for his Venusaur to win.
In fact, Baxcalibur might once again defeat his Pokémon without suffering a single injury.
"Venusaur! Use Leaf Storm!"
In the blink of an eye, Venusaur created an enormous number of leaves.
The energy-infused leaves gathered into a raging green storm and swept toward Baxcalibur.
The next second, Baxcalibur opened its mouth and released a wave of freezing air.
Icy Wind!
The frigid blast swept toward Venusaur.
Its extreme cold instantly froze all the energy leaves.
Baxcalibur's Special Attack might not have been particularly outstanding, but with its level advantage and advantageous typing, freezing those leaves was not difficult.
Upon seeing this, Okada's expression became even darker.
At that moment, he understood that the humiliation of having Venusaur defeated without injuring its opponent was probably unavoidable.
The next second, Baxcalibur launched another attack.
A massive chunk of ice formed in front of it.
Baxcalibur grabbed it and hurled it forward with astonishing speed.
Ice Shard!
The enormous piece of ice struck Venusaur directly.
The Ice-type attack was super effective.
With only one hit, the tremendous physical force and freezing power contained within the attack knocked Venusaur onto its back.
Venusaur released a pained cry.
Baxcalibur immediately followed up.
The freezing air condensed into numerous enormous icicles above Venusaur's head.
Under Baxcalibur's control, they plummeted straight down.
Icicle Crash!
The icicles struck Venusaur directly.
Venusaur immediately lost consciousness and became unable to battle.
"Venusaur is unable to battle! Baxcalibur wins!"
This round ended even faster than the previous one.
Baxcalibur had also demonstrated its overwhelming combat strength immediately after entering the field.
The spectators once again erupted into enthusiastic cheers.
As expected.
Every single Pokémon under Shiko's command possessed incomprehensible strength.
It was truly astonishing.
Judging solely by the strength he had displayed so far, even the Elite Four serving within the Alliance might not be his opponents.
Looking across the entire world, perhaps only the current Alliance Champion, Himeko, could defeat him.
The spectators silently reassessed Shiko's strength while continuing to reward him with their loudest applause and cheers.
Meanwhile, after having five Pokémon almost instantly defeated, Okada could barely contain himself.
Damn it!
This guy was far too strong!
His own Pokémon were not weak.
Yet against Shiko, none of them could endure even two rounds.
The difference in strength was simply too enormous.
Fortunately, he only had one Pokémon remaining.
His suffering would soon be over.
Once he thought about it that way, the pressure weighing upon him lessened considerably.
His entire body relaxed slightly.
He quickly recalled Venusaur and sent out his final Pokémon.
"Go, Chandelure!"
Okada's final Pokémon was Chandelure.
It was a Pokémon shaped like a chandelier, with pale-blue flames burning across its body.
Its appearance possessed an eerie and unsettling quality.
The next second, Shiko also made his move.
After recalling Baxcalibur, he took out another new Poké Ball.
The atmosphere in the venue was pushed toward another climax.
It was happening!
As expected!
Shiko was about to send out yet another completely new Pokémon!
It would probably be another Dragon-type pseudo-legendary!
Excellent!
They would once again be able to witness the magnificent strength of Shiko and his Pokémon.
The next second, the Poké Ball flew through the air.
A silver-colored Pokémon appeared.
Large numbers of yellow scales covered its body.
The Pokémon that had appeared was none other than one of the Dragon-type pseudo-legendaries—
Kommo-o!
The spectators' cheers became even louder!
As expected!
It was another Elite Four-level Dragon-type pseudo-legendary!
This guy's entire team was actually composed of Dragon-type pseudo-legendaries!
It was simply too astonishing!
At the same time, Okada's expression became even more unsightly.
He had never expected Shiko's final pseudo-legendary to possess another favorable matchup against his Pokémon.
This was absurd.
Shiko truly was his natural nemesis.
The battle began the next second.
Chandelure immediately unleashed Flamethrower.
The scales covering Kommo-o's body vibrated and produced an astonishing roar.
Clanging Scales!
The powerful sound waves scattered the incoming flames.
The remaining sonic force struck Chandelure and caused the flames surrounding its body to dim slightly.
The next second, Kommo-o rapidly charged forward.
After closing the distance, it immediately unleashed Close Combat.
Under the tremendous force of the attack, Chandelure was defeated in an instant.
The battle had begun quickly and ended just as quickly.
It was another shocking instant victory.
The spectators remained silent for a moment.
Once they returned to their senses, cries of astonishment erupted throughout the venue.
The six-on-six Full Battle was over.
Without question, Shiko had achieved a complete victory.
He had not lost a single Pokémon.
In fact, none of his Pokémon had suffered even the slightest injury.
This was the first time such a result had occurred since the tournament began.
That could only mean one thing.
Shiko's strength surpassed that of every other contestant by an enormous margin.
At this stage of the tournament, Shiko was unquestionably the strongest participant!
