As someone who could communicate with Ghost-type Pokemon, Phoebe could clearly sense Banette's emotions—fear, trembling, and awe when facing Gengar.
This made her even more curious about Chris's Gengar, and somewhat... frustrated.
"Go, Mismagius!" Phoebe threw another Poke Ball.
Mismagius, resembling a mystical wizard, appeared on the battlefield. Its level was slightly higher than Banette's, reaching Level 86.
However, just like Banette, when Mismagius faced Chris's Gengar, fear, trembling, and reverence filled its heart.
It was as if they were seeing the king of all Ghost-types!
In the presence of this Ghost King, they had no ability to resist—they couldn't even form the thought of opposition.
"Gengar, Shadow Ball!" Chris hadn't expected to encounter such a situation, but he certainly wasn't going to waste this advantage. He gave the command directly.
The purple round Pokemon grinned with a mischievous smile, casually holding the Shadow Ball like it was playing with a toy as it floated toward Mismagius. It showed none of the dignity one might expect from a so-called Ghost King.
"Return!" Phoebe immediately pulled out her Poke Ball to recall Mismagius, confirming that her suspicions were correct. There was no point in wasting her Pokemon's strength.
But escaping wasn't so simple once Gengar had locked onto a target. The Shadow Ball in Gengar's hand suddenly became covered with a brown mist as it pursued Mismagius even as it was being recalled to its Poke Ball.
"CRACK!" This was both the sound of the Poke Ball recalling Mismagius and the impact of Mismagius being hit by the Dark-type move Pursuit.
Pursuit deals double damage when the target Pokemon is being switched out.
Although Gengar wasn't particularly known for physical moves, it was using a Dark-type Pursuit move against a Ghost-type Mismagius.
Double damage on top of double damage.
Quadruple damage total.
Mismagius, now returned to its Poke Ball, was either completely knocked out or severely injured.
"Little guy, you're getting more and more skilled with Dark-type moves," Chris chuckled. His Gengar, despite being Ghost and Poison-type, was particularly proficient with Dark-type techniques for reasons unknown.
"Heh heh (you can never have too many skills!)" Gengar grinned mischievously.
Phoebe gritted her teeth in frustration—she had never experienced such an infuriating battle.
She pulled out another Poke Ball and released it.
Immediately, a Sableye appeared, its level reaching 90!
At the same time, Phoebe revealed the Mega Ring on her right hand.
"Sableye, Mega Evolution!"
Sableye was immediately enveloped in colorful light. When the Mega Evolution radiance faded, Sableye had gained a massive ruby shield that could protect its entire body!
But that wasn't all. Phoebe recalled Mega Sableye back into its Poke Ball and revealed a Dynamax Band on her left wrist.
Light flickered as the Poke Ball grew to the size of a millstone before being thrown out.
Instantly, a gigantic ghost descended while holding a ruby shield, and everything around it was bathed in ruby light, transforming the world into a red-tinted realm.
Mega Sableye in Dynamax form!
"Dynamax plus Mega Evolution?" Looking at the Pokemon before him, Chris's eyes lit up with excitement.
He had wondered if he would encounter such a battle in reality, since Chris himself had experimented with this combination.
He never expected it would also exist in the game world.
In his previous life, there had been no situation where Dynamax and Mega Evolution could be performed simultaneously in either anime or games.
Mega Sableye, having undergone both Dynamax and Mega Evolution, stood holding its giant ruby. This time, facing the "King" Gengar, Phoebe could sense that while it still felt awe and even fear, Sableye was now able to resist the overwhelming pressure!
"That's enough!" Phoebe stared at Chris and Gengar with fierce determination.
"Sableye, Power Gem!"
The giant ruby in Mega Sableye's hand immediately emitted an astonishing burst of light—brilliant rays that far surpassed sunlight, condensing into ten straight laser beams that crossed the entire battlefield!
Because Dynamax had also magnified the ruby, this Power Gem attack was powerful enough to cover the entire battle arena. Unless one entered the spirit world, it would be impossible to avoid!
Chris had no intention of dodging. He pulled a Dark-type Z-Crystal from his pocket and inserted it into his Z-Power Ring.
"Z-Move: Black Hole Eclipse!"
Dark energy flowed from Chris's body into Gengar's form.
A condensed black point immediately appeared in Gengar's chubby hand, streams of energy flickering before instantly expanding!
As Gengar thrust it forward, the black hole descended!
The black hole opened like a ravenous beast, swallowing the incoming Power Gem beams and growing larger until it reached Mega Sableye and exploded violently!
However, such an attack wasn't enough to break through Mega Sableye's defenses.
The giant ruby acted like an indestructible shield, blocking all attacks.
Even Z-Moves couldn't penetrate it!
"Sableye, use..." Phoebe hurried to launch another attack but suddenly realized that Gengar had vanished.
It wasn't hiding in the spirit world, but concealed by thick white mist.
Phoebe had noticed this mist earlier.
When Gengar had first appeared, there had been a faint mist spreading. She hadn't paid attention initially, never realizing it had now covered the entire battlefield and completely hidden Gengar, blocking her vision.
On the other side of the battlefield, Chris stood with his arms crossed, his eyes glowing slightly like stars in the night sky.
The mist came from Gengar's exclusive held item, the "Gastly Barrier" Under these conditions, its evasion rate increased dramatically!
Moreover, while the mist could block Phoebe's sight, it couldn't hinder Chris, who had trained his perception abilities.
Chris could clearly see both Phoebe and Mega Sableye.
"Gengar, Mega Evolution!" Chris revealed his Mega Ring, ready to end this with a single decisive blow.
The round purple Pokemon immediately began glowing as energy coursed through its body. Its arms became like burning flames, and an ornament resembling a golden coin appeared between its brows, looking almost like a third eye.
After Mega Evolution, Gengar's already extremely high Special Attack stat soared to terrifying levels.
Chris pulled out another Z-Crystal from his pocket—this time, a Ghost-type.
If she was going to use Dynamax plus Mega Evolution, then he would counter with Mega Evolution plus Z-Moves!
"Z-Move: Never-Ending Nightmare!"
