He knows Pokémon better than me.

Gigantamax Water Stream can easily break through the opponent's barrier. Even if the opponent is also Dynamaxed and uses "Max Guard", it will be directly penetrated and the damage will be fully released.

"Max Punch! Max Rush!!"

Next up are the Fighting and Flying types that Urshifu excels at, one increasing Attack and the other increasing Speed, both of which are very useful Dynamax moves for it.

unfortunately

"I can't use Max Stream."

Xiao Zhi frowned slightly and couldn't help but sigh.

He originally thought that only "Water Stream Combo" would upgrade to "Gigantamax Water Stream Combo", but in fact all Water-type moves will automatically become Gigantamax moves.

Logically, you should first create rain with Max Water Stream, and then use Gigantamax Water Stream under this weather to maximize its power.

"It's still different from Alola's Z-Moves~"

Alola's signature Z-Move must be upgraded from a specific move; for example, Pikachu's 100 Million Volts must be upgraded from Thunderbolt.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger's "Extremely Evil Leap Smash" must be countered by the DD Golden Hook Arm.

If you use moves like Electric Ball or Thunder, it will still turn into the regular "Ultimate Volt Slam".

It's a bit of a shame that Gigantamax in the Galar region only considers type, not specific moves!

After Urshifu shrunk, it was the turn of the other Pokémon that couldn't Gigantamax to try it one by one.

Onion-like creatures, ichthyosaurs, and armored dinosaurs

Even without a unique Gigantamax move, the usual Max Punch and Max Dragoon moves are still very satisfying.

Even the seasoned Lucario got interested, blushed, and quietly joined the last line to experience the wonderful thrill of Dynamax.

The two giant wristbands, used alternately, were able to function properly, albeit with some difficulty.

In the end, even the cool leopards and cunning foxes next to him came over and bowed to him, asking for a title.

Ash simply waved his hand and let his two neighbors experience Dynamax as well.

Since it wasn't a Pokémon he had captured, the steps were the same as for Pikachu—

While holding a cheetah in your arms, press the Maximal Bracelet, and then throw it out before it fully grows to its full size.

"Cool-ha—!!"

Upon assuming the majestic form of a giant cat, the Cool Leopard immediately fixed its gaze on the cunning fox pack, a hostile force. Even a simple action of sticking out its tongue to lick them was enough to frighten the foxes.

Of course, when the Great Fox reaches Gigantamax, the polarity will reverse, and it will be the turn of the Leopard and the Cat to hiss and bristle.

"Those two guys"

Xiao Zhi smiled. It seemed that the relationship between the leopard and the foxes had improved a lot recently.

Although they still bar their teeth and show their anger every time they meet, they've long since reached the point where they wanted to drive each other out of the wilderness and were irreconcilable enemies.

All the Pokémon had Dynamaxed once, and the sky had darkened, making the entire Watchtower Castle much quieter.

"Uh"

Looking at the still-buzzing Giant Wristband handed to him, Maga pushed up his sunglasses. It looked like it had been played with and broken. It should still work, right?

Ash looked at the Pokédex and muttered:

"Next, only Charizard, Eevee, and Snorlax are left."

According to the official Galar League's Gigantamax Pokédex, his three Pokémon can also Gigantamax.

However, Charizard is currently unavailable due to a scheduling conflict and cannot come to the Galar region. Eevee has disappeared; it's nowhere to be found in the backyard—

Since its trip through the Alola region, the socially awkward Eevee has long since disappeared and now roams the world.

As for Snorlax...

It seems to have fallen asleep somewhere unknown in the Reverse World. To find this guy, we'll probably have to wait for Snorlax to wake up hungry and find its way home on its own.

Well, it's unlikely to happen within ten days to two weeks.

"Let's leave those three for next time."

Xiao Zhi sighed, not paying any attention.

Including Butterfree and Lapras, who have temporarily returned to the team, as well as Lucario, Shaymin, and other Pokémon that are not fighting but simply helping out.

The number of Pokémon in his castle is about to exceed 20.

This must be the largest number ever, right?

Ash swiped Rotom's screen on his phone and opened the photo album. It showed a group photo that Maga had taken of him and all the Pokémon in the castle during the day. All the Pokémon were gathered together, and it looked very lively.

(Group photo - picture)

Looking at the screen, a contented smile spread across his face.

Back in the castle, while having dinner, Magua submitted his resignation.

"Now that the watchtower is done, I'm heading back to Battleground Town tomorrow."

Maga extended his palm to Ash. This short trip had truly allowed him to meet an extraordinary young man.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't leave the Battle Arena for an extended period, he would have planned to stay with Ash for another ten days or two weeks.

The Battle Arena is a gym where you can choose your gym leader. Once he leaves, it means that all the trainers will choose to challenge his mother.

This could drastically reduce his popularity. Most importantly, he doesn't want to lose to his mother!

"Oh, thank you so much anyway. You're welcome to visit anytime!"

Xiao Zhi smiled and shook hands with him. After spending the past few days together, he had developed a good impression of the chubby man in sunglasses.

"So, Ash, where are you planning to go next?"

Magu couldn't help but ask, as he could tell that Ash wasn't someone who liked staying in one place for long.

Now that everything at Watchtower Castle is back on track, there's no need to stay here indefinitely.

"Me? My next step, of course, is to continue improving my World Championship ranking!"

Ash took out his phone and glanced at Rotom. Due to the long season, Rotom hadn't participated in the World Championships recently, and his ranking remained at the mid-level of the Super Ball class.

This World Championship is generating a lot of buzz, and it's said that several of his acquaintances, all well-known players from other regions, have already made it into the advanced level.

This also made Xiao Zhi eager to try his hand at it.

The World Championships at the highest level are what really get interesting!

"You can come to our Battle Town. We have quite a few trainers who are ranked at the top of the Super Ball level, and they are all looking for opponents to try to break through to the Ultra Ball level."

Magua seized the opportunity to extend an invitation with a smile.

"Warring Town? I haven't been to that town yet."

When the name Battlegrounds was mentioned, Ash turned his head to look at Mr. Mime, who was directing two Morphlings at work not far away.

That's also Mr. Magic's hometown, but judging from Mr. Magic's expression, he doesn't seem to like his hometown very much.

If all else fails, I can just go with Pikachu. (End of Chapter)
