Seeing Gabite really start to evolve, even Axel could not help but feel a bit surprised.
'The little shark actually evolved because it was too angry?'
'This fight is worth it.'

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Roar!!
The moment the evolution finished, Garchomp released an extremely ferocious aura, and the roar from its mouth echoed across the sky.
"Nice!", Axel's voice rang out as he gave Garchomp a thumbs-up.
Ever since he became a Trainer, the little shark had been the fastest-growing Pokémon he had ever encountered.
The Pokémon he had before, even with enough resources, could not break through quickly.
But the little shark was different. With the Sitting and Eating the Mountain Away tag, its digestion speed was several times faster than other Pokémon, plus Axel's own nurturing tags.
That was how this Garchomp was born.
"Next, it's time to turn things around. Use Rest again!"
"Roar!", Garchomp gave the Flygon below a savage look, closed its eyes, and once again began to rapidly recover its stamina.
Seeing Axel and Garchomp's reactions, although he did not know why Garchomp only evolved now, Raihan still reacted instantly.
"Be careful. This Garchomp must have mastered Sleep Talk. Keep your body in contact with the ground and keep using Scale Shot until my next command!"
"Ang!", Flygon looked solemnly at the sky. As a Pokémon, its perception was stronger than Raihan's, and it could clearly feel the pressure radiating from Garchomp.
This newly evolved Garchomp seemed to be even higher level than it!
Its wings spread rapidly, the green scales on its body falling off as they gradually gave off a strange purple glow.
A continuous barrage of Scale Shot moves rushed toward the sky like a machine gun, precisely striking Garchomp's position!
Axel narrowed his eyes, "Garchomp, use Sleep Talk!"
Sleep Talk allows a Pokémon to randomly use one of the moves it has already learned while sleepwalking, and it can only be used while resting. Its effect is not particularly strong.
But right now, Axel had enough confidence in Garchomp.
Gabite being pressed and beaten by Flygon was because its life level was not perfect enough.
Now that it had evolved into Garchomp, the little shark's physical stats had surged by 50%. Could it still be suppressed by Flygon?
The next moment, Garchomp swung its wings forward, instinctively gathering Dragon-type energy and forming a sharp claw in front of itself.
The instant the energy claw appeared, it automatically slashed forward, colliding directly with Flygon's Scale Shot attacks and producing the sound of metal striking metal.
After several seconds of continuous collisions, Garchomp finally woke up. It bared its teeth at the Flygon below, the anger in its eyes almost solidifying.
"Use Twister!"
Seeing Flygon, which could dive underground at any moment, Axel decisively chose a long-range attack.
Sure enough, the instant Axel gave the command, Flygon skillfully drilled toward the ground.
But before its body could fully enter, a biting gale suddenly appeared. The enormous Dragon-type power instantly threw Flygon's body out of control. No matter how frantically it flapped its wings, it was still swept up into the sky.
"Garchomp, use Dragon Rush!"
———
Two hours later, the spar between Axel and Raihan ended.
After defeating Flygon with Dragon Rush, Axel did not let the little shark continue fighting.
As energy was consumed in battle, its temporary level would also drop to a certain extent.
With the battle against Necrozma approaching, it was obviously not appropriate to let the little shark fight at full power.
The battles afterward were also ridiculous.
After both sides sent out Archaludon, the General also fully displayed his skills and quickly made a Steel-type fruit platter.
Raihan's Archaludon was too embarrassed to make a move, and the remaining time was spent teaching the General Gigantamax battle techniques.
Axel tried letting Archaludon Gigantamax once. Its height could already reach several hundred meters.
Because it was standing upright, purely in terms of visual impact, it even surpassed Gigantamax Gyarados.
To sum it up, it was actually very simple. A world where only Flygon got hurt was achieved.
———
After the simple spar, Raihan stayed at the research institute.
Every day, after letting the Pokémon eat for free, he used the remaining time to teach Archaludon and Gyarados Gigantamax techniques.
And Axel's new focus was placed on Kyurem.
Yes, Ice Dragon Kyurem.
Ever since being abandoned and slapped in the face by Pryce, Kyurem had been like a sealed gourd. It did not speak when seeing Rayquaza and the others, and even when facing the Black and White Dragons, it acted as if it did not know them at all.
It just honestly acted as Axel's tool dragon, helping the little shark break through bottlenecks and quickly raise its temporary level.
But one day after eating its fill, while Axel was taking a nap, he suddenly felt a chill on his cheek.
Then after waking up, he found that this guy was licking him.
According to Kyurem's explanation, this was something it learned after asking Grandpa at the guard room entrance. It was the best way to quickly bring people closer emotionally.
Axel was speechless on the spot, 'Don't you know Grandpa has been single for 62 years?'
'Who the hell licks people like this!'
But feeling Kyurem's clear eyes and this simple-minded personality, Axel still decided to give it a chance.
Everyone knows that once these silly blockheads truly give their loyalty, they are the most faithful.
What dragon can't turn over a new leaf?
Just so happened that Axel already had the Black Dragon and the White Dragon, and he had always had an idea.
If all three dragons learned fusion, and were fairly familiar with each other and not too resistant to one another.
Would it be possible for him to recreate the legendary Unova Dragon God?
