"Charizard, we still need to get stronger!"
Ash's voice resonated in Charizard's ears. Immediately after, raging flames erupted from Charizard's body, instantly transforming it into an enormous fireball! However, the Charizard within the inferno suddenly opened its eyes, a pair of azure Dragon Claws sprang forth, and with a powerful beat of its wings, it soared towards the Charizard King.
The Charizard King merely extended a single claw, and then, Dragon-type energy surged, as it too unleashed a Dragon Claw attack!
"Right now, Charizard isn't so easily countered!" Seeing the Charizard King's confident stance, Ash smiled knowingly!
Indeed, Charizard, ablaze with flames, continuously increased its speed, appearing before the Charizard King almost in the blink of an eye. Its pair of Dragon Claws, crossed, fiercely struck down towards the Charizard King!
"The power of that Dragon Claw has increased by at least half!" Charla's eyes lit up. Her extensive experience with Charizard meant she possessed such keen observational skills. Perhaps even the Charizard King hadn't anticipated that Charizard, in this intensified state, could unleash such formidable power!
Charizard: 253/255
Boom!
The raging flames surged violently once more, and Charizard fiercely charged into the Charizard King! The Charizard King's massive body was actually knocked back a step. This was a profound humiliation for a king, and the Charizard King truly became incensed. Even for a junior it favored, such repeated provocations could absolutely not be forgiven!
After the Dragon Claw dissipated, Dragon-type energy actually condensed on its tail. The thick tail struck Charizard's body, sending it flying.
"Ugh!"
Ash suddenly felt as if his abdomen had been struck by a heavy club.
"Ash, what's wrong?"
Misty, beside Ash, noticed his sudden look of pain and quickly asked with concern.
However, Ash, enduring the throbbing pain, reopened his eyes, which now gleamed with dazzling brilliance!
Charizard: 254/255
"Roar!"
The Charizard that had been sent flying experienced another change in its flames. Streaks of white patterns appeared within them, as if it were a flaming egg about to crack open.
"What else is changing?" Charla also noticed the transformations on Charizard's body.
The flames on the Charizard King's tail burst violently, shooting up nearly two meters high. Its fighting spirit had also ignited, sensing that the aura of this junior before it was continuously rising!
In the next instant, the Charizard King launched an attack, swinging a claw, and Dragon-type energy surged again, forming a massive Dragon Claw that slashed towards the fireball that was Ash's Charizard. However, two Dragon Claws emerged from the fireball, intercepting the Charizard King's attack. But clearly, the Charizard King's strength was even greater. With a swift turn, its Dragon Tail once again repelled Charizard.
"Ugh!"
Ash clutched his waist, his brow tightly furrowed. The Charizard King's attacks certainly showed no mercy.
The fireball-form Charizard only retreated half a step before regaining its composure. Although it hadn't learned Dragon Tail, it also spun around, sweeping its long tail towards the Charizard King. But this ordinary attack was caught by the Charizard King by its tail. A burst of immense power, and the Charizard King, grabbing Charizard by the tail, swung the entire Charizard around and threw it flying!
"Charizard, fly!"
Ash shouted loudly. Logically, the thrown Charizard shouldn't have been able to hear his voice, but Charizard heard it nonetheless and, with an instant burst of power, stabilized itself in mid-air!
It was at that very moment!
255/255!!
Thump-thump!
Ash felt his own heart pounding, and simultaneously, he felt Charizard's heartbeat!
The fireball that Charizard had transformed into, while suspended in mid-air, suddenly glowed with intense brilliance! It was as dazzling as another sun. Following that, the white streaks that had previously appeared on the fireball became even more pronounced, looking exactly like a huge flaming egg, beginning to split down the middle into two symmetrical halves!
"What in the world is happening!" Misty's voice, a mix of surprise and a tremor of fear, shook slightly.
But Brock suddenly declared, "That looks like the light emitted during evolution!"
Hearing this assessment, Ash smiled faintly. This explanation was absolutely correct!
"Roar!"
As if also sensing the profound change, Charizard let out an excited roar in the air!
"Charizard, get stronger! Get stronger! Stronger and stronger!" Ash's excited voice reverberated through the valley. Hearing Ash's fervent call, Charizard's light of evolution shattered!
The fireball instantly burst open, and only then did everyone realize that what they had seen were Charizard's magnificent wings!
At this moment, Charizard glowed with dazzling light all over, its color transforming from its original orange-red to a brilliant, warm golden-orange. It possessed powerful claws, sharp fangs, and two golden flames flickered at the corners of its mouth. On its rounded belly were several light blue and golden triangular patterns, making it look exceptionally handsome. The most stunning feature was its wings, now made of pure flame, which were vastly larger than its original dragon wings. One could easily imagine Charizard's current flight speed could probably surpass even the pseudo-legendary Dragonite of the Kanto Region!
The evolved Charizard landed in front of Ash. At this moment, its height had reached over 2 meters, making it even taller than the Charizard King by a noticeable margin. Its overall aura was even more astonishing, with its flaming dragon wings majestically spread behind it, truly captivating everyone's gaze.
The most moved was undoubtedly Charla, who prided herself as a Charizard trainer. Two streams of hot tears rolled down her face. "It's so cool! I never imagined Charizard could evolve into such a form; those flaming twin wings are just magnificent."
Ash stepped forward and patted Charizard's belly. "How do you feel?"
"Roar!"
His answer, of course, was Charizard's exultant roar!
Name: Ash's Charizard
Type: Fire, Dragon
Abilities: Tough Claws (Increases the power of moves that make direct contact with the opponent), Drought (When it enters battle, the weather becomes sunny)
Moves: Dragon Claw, Flamethrower, Seismic Toss, Take Down, Mega Punch...
Seeing Charizard's current attributes, Ash was truly delighted. Not only did it gain the Dragon-type, but it also possessed two abilities, seemingly combining traits from Mega Charizard X and Y. These two abilities meant that Tough Claws would significantly boost its close-combat capabilities, while Drought would alter the weather, further amplifying its Fire-type moves.
Perfect!
However, in the next second, with a flash of light, Charizard reverted to its original form, and Ash's vision went black, causing him to almost collapse. Fortunately, Charizard quickly caught him.
"Ash!"
Under everyone's worried gazes, Ash forced himself to rally his spirits. He looked at Charizard. "Ms. Charla, I'd like to temporarily leave Charizard here for training. Is that alright?"
By now, Charizard and Ash were of one mind; it immediately understood Ash's intentions.
At this moment, the Charizard King also approached everyone. It patted Charizard's shoulder, then looked at Charla, seemingly also hoping that Ash's unique Charizard could stay here for training. It would personally train Ash's Charizard!
"Ash, are you sure about this?" Although Misty knew that leaving Charizard here for training would be beneficial for it, she was naturally reluctant to part with Charizard. Moreover, it also meant Ash would lose a major powerhouse.
"Yes!" Charla resolutely agreed!
Subsequently, Ash fainted.
