On the field, the originally thick ice layer was cracked by the shockwaves of two forces, only to be instantly filled by fresh frost. The spectators outside were unaffected, but the entire field was nearly torn apart by the collision of these forces!
Mewtwo's shield didn't cover the ground, and now the entire surface is in a state of being constantly frozen, only to be torn by storms again and again.
Ash clenched his fists, watching the two clashing forces in the air, sweat dripping from his forehead. It wasn't just Lugia fighting on the field, he was there with Lugia too, his rapidly depleting strength clearly telling him that things weren't looking good...
The power of Aeroblast had already been fully unleashed, yet the Blizzard showed no signs of diminishing. The moisture in the rainy weather continuously replenished the ice and snow, making the snow curtain thicker and heavier.
After a stalemate of just a few seconds, the rotation speed of the black cyclone gradually slowed down, while the Blizzard took advantage of this moment to absorb the surrounding water flow and expand dramatically!
The power of restraint ultimately triumphed over the divine art, and the ice-blue snow curtain successfully overshadowed the fierce edge of the cyclone explosion. The black airflow was forcibly compressed and frozen by the ice and snow, ultimately shattering with a "crack".
The remaining snow and wind rushed toward Lugia with residual cold air, while not causing severe damage, it formed a layer of thin ice along the edges of its wings, making the flapping motion cumbersome.
On the field, the ice and snow completely covered the previous mess, with layers of ice several inches thick, and even the air seemed to echo with the sound of crumbling.
Following the fire field created by Charizard, the field was now a complete expanse of white, turning into a snowy landscape!
"It actually...actually overwhelmed Lugia's exclusive move, is this the true strength of Elite Lorelei? It's simply unbelievable!! Slowbro, being a Water Type, erupted with such terrifying Ice Type moves, no matter what Pokemon attribute it is, under Elite Lorelei's command, it turns into an ice master. This is the pinnacle power of the top trainers among us humans!" The host Allen shouted excitedly.
The surrounding audience also erupted in amazement, the battle kept reversing again and again. Originally, it seemed like Slowbro was seriously injured and about to lose its ability to fight, but now it reversed the situation and broke through Lugia's exclusive skill!
Divine skill cannot be simply described by power, and Lorelei actually nullified it head-on, this wasn't just a win in a moves duel, it was a massive morale boost!
Even steady as Elite Lorelei, after seeing Slowbro shatter the opponent's Aeroblast, couldn't help but reveal a delighted smile on her pretty face.
Even the skills of divine beings are not invincible!
As long as humans train their Pokemon to the extreme, they may not be any less than divine power. The current scene is the best example!
Previously, Charizard exhibited Ho-Oh's power, allowing it to far exceed the limits of a regular Pokemon's abilities.
Normal scenarios suggest even with Ash's Aura Power assistance, Charizard shouldn't be able to leap that many levels to battle; if Charizard were at the Elite or Professional Level, barely leaping one major level with Ash's Aura Power was plausible, but once reaching Elite and Champion, relying on Ash's strength to leap a major level is absolutely impossible.
It's understandable; others steadily and reliably elevate their levels, while you're relying on external forces to elevate yours to the opponent's level. Why would you be able to match their strength? Because your pre-upgrade Ability Value is S-Class?
At lower levels, an S-Class Ability Value can still have a role once levels soar, letting the forcefully raised power run parallel with steady-paced elevation. However, at Elite Level and beyond to Champion Level, hoping that an S-Class Ability Value alone could contend is pure imagination.
Charizard managed to achieve leap-level battles within leap-level battles, suppressing a Champion Intermediate Cloyster with strength at Junior Elite Level, thanks to Ash's strength, the upper limit of its Ability Value, and its MEGA Evolution and the Divine Power it holds—Ho-Oh's Flame!
High-level force in lower-level battles, even slightly, holds critical importance, so Charizard is practically invincible on a lower level relying on the Divine Flame's power.
With Ash's Aura Power enhancing its level, it can still unleash power beyond its own, that is Divine Power.
However, upon reaching Champion Level, nearing the divine level, Divine Power's role diminishes, as the normal Pokemon's power-up process itself approaches divinity.
Charizard now finds it hard to dominate at Champion Level with Divine Flame alone; before MEGA Evolution, it was subdued by Cloyster even with the Divine Flame.
Only post-MEGA Evolution, with enhanced flames and elevated level, did it overpower Cloyster, indicating that Champion-level power has begun to somewhat threaten divine power.
Now, Slowbro has even nullified the divine being's exclusive skill upfront, reinforcing the realization that divine power isn't invincible, and through human effort, Pokemon can...approach, or even surpass, the divine!
"Slowbro, Freeze it!!" Lorelei seized the opportunity, and within the Trick Room, Slowbro still held absolute advantage, even though its Physical Strength had been considerably reduced by Lugia. Yet, for a Champion-level Pokemon, even a last shred of strength can launch a full-force attack.
Unlike other Pokemon, whose attributes like attack and Speed decline with reduced strength.
The Blizzard, which had been weakening, began condensing again. Slowbro was preparing for a second attack, and under Trick Room, the speed of its moves had already undergone a qualitative change, now, with Lugia still in a frozen state.
Attempting to gather strength for a counterattack inevitably leaves Slowbro more ahead, a step slow, falling step after step.
We've got it!!
Just as an excitement arose in Lorelei's heart, an extremely terrifying power suddenly erupted from Lugia, draping the entire field in eerie blackness, and the frost on its body was shattered by this dark energy!
The raindrops from the sky were utterly erased by the black energy released from Lugia, even the slightly weak clouds in the sky were blown away, and the rain ceased without warning.
Before Lorelei could recover from the shock, a visibly transparent square space emerged across the whole field. This space was not Mewtwo's protective shield but the Trick Room Slowbro had cast.
Though nearing the time limit of Trick Room, remaining time was enough for Slowbro to execute a couple of moves, yet the abrupt visual manifestation of Trick Room fostered a sense of foreboding in Lorelei's heart.
"Screeech!!!" A piercing sound erupted from Lugia, dark energy waves radiating from it, spreading a deathly aura across the field, dissolving everything the energy touched—be it hail, storm, even the Trick Room—all were eradicated in an instant as though they had never been.
"What move is this?!" Even the experienced Lorelei couldn't help but exclaim at the scene.
She encountered yet another perplexing element. Clearly about to capture victory, wouldn't Ash have instigated some surprise again?
"This is another power of Lugia, belonging to the Flying Type, yet mixed with that destructive power. Go, Lugia, use Oblivion Wing!!"
Oblivion Wing, exclusive move of Yveltal, the God of Death!!
