The pale pink energy drifted here, and a fleeting, illusory light and shadow flickered in an instant.
Followed by.
A figure stepped out of the illusion, its entire body was pale purple, with a red gem on its forehead and eyes that were a purplish-silver like a galaxy.
It is indeed one of Eevee's evolved forms, "Euphorbia"!!!
"really!!!"
The moment Espeon appeared, everyone who had been speculating about the special features of this Eevee—including Green, Professor Oak, and Lance—was startled.
This Eevee can freely transform into its evolved form!
In other words, this Eevee doesn't only have one attribute!
It can be one of nine attributes: Normal, Fire, Water, Electric, Psychic, Dark, Grass, Ice, and Fairy!
Given its unique characteristics, it's no wonder that Crimson would send it out at this time.
This Eevee is only inferior to Alakazam in strength, but in all other aspects it is on par with Alakazam, and even surpasses it!
However, now that we've reached the fifth game, both sides have used up a lot of their Pokémon, leaving only two Pokémon. It's difficult to find a way to counter Eevee or devise a strategy.
It's fair to say that this Ibrahimovic truly became the watershed moment for this team!
..................
..................
The battle raged on the field.
When "Eevee" also used Teleport to catch up with Alakazam, the battle turned into a chase.
Phantoms and afterimages flickered across the grassy field as skills were unleashed and exploded!
Eevee constantly switches between its two main evolutionary forms, Espeon and Umbreon, and its other evolutionary forms...
Alakazam transforms into a Dark-type Umbreon to defend itself when it uses a Psychic-type move. If Alakazam tries to escape or create distance, it will transform into Espeon and use Teleport to catch up.
But gradually, Qinglv seized some opportunities!
They actually seized the opportunity during Eevee's transformation phase, using the Freeze spell to slow down the transformation just as Eevee was about to transform from Umbreon to Espeon.
Immediately afterwards, Alakazam used its special Fighting-type move, Focus Blast, which hit Umbreon, which was still Dark-type.
The Fighting-type Focus Blast is twice as effective against the Dark-type Umbreon. However, Alakazam is not a STAB Focus Blast user. Although Umbreon's Special Attack is boosted by one stage, its bulk is still quite good.
Ultimately, with Umbreon severely injured, the battle came to an end!
After the Focus Blast ended, Eevee didn't transform into Espeon, but instead transformed directly into Jolteon, unleashing a powerful Electric Shock at incredible speed!
Streaks of lightning, like spears, covered most of the area and shot out towards Hudi!
Even Alakazam, who used Teleport to reach the very edge of the grass field, still took some hits from Lightning Lance, triggering the tingling electric shock effect.
They've entered a state of paralysis!
The moment the paralysis status was triggered (1.7), "Joyebu" transformed into a beam of white light and rushed towards Alakazam at an extremely fast speed.
In the blink of an eye, they were already close to Alakazam, and just as they were about to reach it, a white light burst forth, and "Joebue" instantly transformed back into Eevee!
At the same time, the speed was getting closer and closer, and the flashing white light was becoming more and more dazzling, like a shining white arrow, which instantly magnified in Alakazam's eyes!
...Eevee's signature partner skill!!!
The deeper the bond with the trainer, the greater the power!
...Bang! Bang! Break!

339. Ash: Red, will you win? Azure: You will! (Please subscribe to all chapters!)
A white light drifted away, across the grassy field!
In a deep pit!
Alakazam, still covered in wounds, lay in the pit, its eyes swirling, and was unable to fight.
"Bu~yi~~~!!!"
Eevee, covered in wounds, lay outside the pit, gazing at Alakazam, who was unable to fight. After catching its breath for a moment, it glanced back at Red and let out a long roar.
It won this battle!
It finally tipped the scales of victory in this match!
Red is now in the lead!
Five of Blue's Pokémon have already lost their ability to battle!
He only has one last Pokémon left to fight!
...............
...............
"Alakazam is unable to fight!!!"
"Red's Eevee, with its special ability #23 and the capacity to evolve, withstood the pressure at this crucial moment and successfully defeated Alakazam, securing a vital point for Red!!!"
"In this battle, the scales of victory have finally tipped, tilting towards the crimson side!!!"
The cheers and commentary from the host ignited the audience's enthusiasm, causing them to forget their cheers as they became so engrossed in the exciting battle.
"That's great, big brother..."
"Well done, Akashi, now you're my real rival!"
"Aka, do your best!!!"
"Great! Brother Chi has overtaken Brother Stinky Mao!"
"..."
Yellow, Touko, Mei, Misty, Brock, and Ash, who, despite not yet being out of trouble, had come to watch the finals between Red and Blue, were all happy for Red's lead.
Of course, Gary, who had been teased by Ash, was also in the audience, just like Ash, and was now sitting next to Ash.
However, unlike the others who were happy, Xiao Mao's face showed little joy; instead, it was somewhat solemn.
"Although Brother Chi is indeed in the lead, I am very happy, but I still have to give you a blow. This lead is only temporary."
"You could even say there's no lead at all. This Eevee with its special abilities is already seriously injured. When Qing... my brother... sends out his last Pokémon, this brief lead will probably be wiped out in an instant!"
"Then, we'll be back to square one..."
Before Xiao Shi could finish speaking, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but interject, "Why? Can't Brother Red recall Eevee when Brother Blue sends out his last Pokémon?"
"Wouldn't that still put them in the lead? Even if their last Pokémon brings the match to a tie, they can still win with their remaining Eevee, right?"
Ash's words caused Gary, Misty, Brock, and even Azure, who knew him well, to all look at him with amusement.
Has this child been replaced? They've become capable of thinking this much!
Ash, who was being stared at by everyone, scratched the back of his head slightly embarrassed: "I've just been thinking a lot lately..."
Everyone nodded silently, then turned their heads back to the arena.
It turns out the child has finally figured it out...
Then, just as Shigeru was about to explain, Azure spoke up, taking over the explanation and providing answers for Ash and Mei, who had not yet embarked on her Pokémon Trainer journey:
"Under normal circumstances, this is indeed a way to win, but it won't work against trainers of Green and Red's caliber." "Because the return speed is too slow. Not to mention the influence of the opponent's 'momentum,' the fact that every Pokémon now has the strength of a mid-Champion or higher has already affected the speed of the Poké Ball's return ray."
"And this speed, though it may only be a few seconds, or even a fraction of a second, is a living opportunity in the eyes of Red and Green—an opportunity to seize it instantly and win!"
"That's why, from the beginning of this competition to every competition up to now, Red and Green have never recalled any Pokémon; they've always sent them out to fight immediately."
"That's why, although Ibrahimovic defeated Alakazam and took the lead, it was only temporary, or even a negligible lead, because he was already severely injured..."
"Plus the last green Pokémon..."
"Is it very strong?" Ash couldn't help but ask again.
“Strong!” Azure nodded.
"Extremely strong!" Xiao Mao admitted solemnly.
Although Gary and Blue have never gotten along, Gary has to admit that Blue is far superior to him in terms of talent as a Pokémon Trainer.
Especially that ridiculously fast cultivation speed!
If other Pokémon already possess such strength, then the Pokémon that has been with Blue for the longest time and is also the original Pokémon must be even more terrifying in strength.
Azure is the same. Having thoroughly understood the personalities of Red and Green, she naturally knows very well their respective strengths.
Red's strength lies in his judgment of 027 in battle and his ability to unleash the full potential of Pokémon, even surpassing their level, just like with Eevee in this match.
Blue-green, on the other hand, is related to Pokémon training, which allows Pokémon to rapidly increase their strength without any side effects.
Blue has always had a stronger overall strength and a larger number of Pokémon than Red, but every time it faces Red, it is overwhelmed by Red's terrifying fighting talent.
As expected, the last Pokémon of Blue Green was that guy. Back when Silph Co. was in operation, it was already far ahead of Red's Pokémon, reaching the Elite Four level.
And now, it's probably even more terrifying!
"Is that so? Then will Brother Chi win?"
Ash looked at the two serious-looking people, pondered for a moment, and then asked a question.
Upon hearing this, Azure was taken aback at first, then a smile appeared on her pretty face, filled with confidence in Crimson, and she murmured:
"Will win!"

"I never imagined that I would be the one forced into a corner first!"
The murmured green voice, amplified by the loudspeaker, spread throughout the arena, reaching the ears of the audience, including the red, blue, and yellow spectators, as well as Professor Oak and others in the League's spectator stands.
"I have to admit, Akashi, your fighting talent is inferior even to mine!"
