Chapter 111: Chapter 111: I’ll Give You Time to Buff

”Ponii...”

Ogerpon shook her hand lightly.

She glanced at her palm, where faint black marks could be seen.

Injured?

Not really.

At most, the equivalent of scraping a little skin.

”And wounds like this...”

”They’ll heal on their own in a moment.”

By the time Ogerpon lowered her hand again, only that brief instant had passed, yet the darkened skin on her palm had already recovered by half.

Such terrifying vitality—this was one of the transformations gained after breaking through level 80 and reaching the limit of an individual.

Besides that, there was also bottomless stamina, immense energy reserves, exclusive moves, and overwhelmingly powerful physical stats.

But none of that needed to be displayed yet.

The opponent was too weak.

Lucario and Korrina, at their current level, weren’t even qualified to serve as warm-up exercise.

”The gap is too enormous.”

Volcanion shook his head while watching.

Victini floating in the air wore the same helpless expression.

Both Pokémon understood exactly how strong Ogerpon was.

Yet neither of them had expected Korrina to be this weak.

”So this is what human Trainers are like?”

”When the two sides are evenly matched, Trainers can indeed bring tremendous support to Pokémon.”

Volcanion thought back to the first match between Aurorus and Machoke.

”But when the stat difference becomes too large, no amount of brilliant command can help.”

”I already said this.”

Sora ignored Volcanion’s commentary and spoke seriously.

”All Pokémon battles are ultimately fair!”

”There’s no need to hesitate.”

”This was never a fair fight to begin with.”

”The difference between you and me was decided long ago.”

”So display the full extent of the power you possess right now.”

Sora continued:

”And prove to this child that you possess the qualifications to challenge her again in the future!”

Those words finally snapped Korrina out of her daze.

A Trainer’s pride?

Three against one was shameful?

But just as Sora said—if she didn’t even have the chance to prove herself, then how could she dare claim she had witnessed the summit?

This wasn’t a challenge.

It was an awakening to her own limits.

For the first time, Korrina truly understood exactly how much she was worth at present.

”Mienfoo, Bounce!”

”Machoke, Bulk Up again! And keep going after that—until you hit your limit!”

”Lucario, Swords Dance! Same for you!”

Didn’t Sora want her to display her Pokémon’s full power?

Then she’d show him the strongest state her team could achieve!

One stage of buffs.

Two stages.

Three stages...

Meanwhile, Mienfoo descended from above, kicking fiercely toward Ogerpon.

”Ponii.”

Ogerpon casually reached out and caught Mienfoo by one of her tiny legs before tossing her aside.

The entire process happened without Ogerpon even looking.

Her gaze remained fixed solely on the strongest among them—

Lucario.

Buffs were indeed absurdly powerful.

But Machoke and Lucario’s physical foundations were what they were.

No matter how much they enhanced themselves, they couldn’t surpass their limits.

”Yoo!!”

Mienfoo landed, barely managing to catch her breath before Korrina immediately ordered her to continue harassing Ogerpon.

As for Ogerpon...

the little one naturally wasn’t about to let Mienfoo keep buzzing around her like an annoying fly.

The attacks didn’t hurt.

But they were irritating.

”You’re so annoying, Ponii!”

Just as Mienfoo charged forward at high speed—

she suddenly felt an overwhelming force descend upon her.

Ogerpon raised a hand and grabbed Mienfoo by the throat.

Then she lifted her into the air.

No matter how Mienfoo struggled, she couldn’t budge that iron grip even slightly.

”Mienfoo!!”

Korrina cried out in alarm, unable to bear seeing her Pokémon treated this way.

”Raaah~~”

”Luca...”

At that moment, Machoke and Lucario let out pained groans.

They had clearly pushed their physical enhancements to the limit.

But—it was useless.

Ogerpon restrained Mienfoo with one hand while effortlessly dodging the attacks from Machoke and Lucario.

Any strike she couldn’t avoid, she blocked casually with her free hand.

Throughout the entire exchange, Ogerpon never launched a single counterattack.

She merely allowed Machoke and Lucario to display the power they had gained through all their buffs.

”This can’t be real...”

Korrina had already begun doubting her life choices.

There was no way to win.

Absolutely no way.

Ogerpon was merely playing with the three Pokémon like toys.

Especially Mienfoo.

Other than being restrained and unable to move, she hadn’t suffered any real injuries.

Hanging from Ogerpon’s grip like an accessory, she was able to clearly experience just how fluid and agile Ogerpon’s movements were.

”Boring.”

Volcanion no longer wished to watch.

The giant beast lay down and closed his eyes to rest.

Magearna, however, watched very attentively.

She quite liked Korrina as a human girl.

And this stubborn refusal to give up was adorable too.

”That’s enough.”

Seeing that Ogerpon had played around enough, Sora said:

”End the battle.”

”Ponii!”

Receiving Sora’s permission, Ogerpon first tossed Mienfoo toward Machoke, causing the two Pokémon to tumble into a heap.

Then she turned toward the incoming Lucario and punched her directly in the abdomen.

”Luca...”

Lucario froze as though struck by lightning.

Then her knees buckled.

She collapsed, unable to rise again.

”Raaah!”

”Yoo!”

Machoke and Mienfoo had only just gotten back up when they saw two fingers flash toward them.

Each strike landed precisely on the weakest point of their bodies.

Elemental energy flowed from Ogerpon’s fingertips, effortlessly severing the core of their energy circulation.

In an instant—

Machoke and Mienfoo’s vision went black.

They lost consciousness completely.

”You’re getting more and more skilled at this, Ogerpon.”

Sora was very satisfied with her performance.

She hadn’t used the Ivy Cudgel.

Instead, she had separated out the most essential component of that move from the weapon itself.

Ivy Cudgel possessed the special property of easily striking vital points and delivering devastating blows.

Sora and Ogerpon had researched this for a very long time.

In the end, they reached a conclusion.

The ”guaranteed vital hit” nature of Ivy Cudgel was fundamentally the result of Ogerpon’s elemental energy, combined with her observation and reaction speed.

In other words—

even without the cudgel—

Ogerpon could still identify an opponent’s weak points far better than ordinary Pokémon.

Thus, all three Pokémon fell.

Lucario, Mienfoo, and Machoke resembled humans struck at critical pressure points, entering a state akin to shock.

They simply couldn’t resist Ogerpon’s invasive energy.

Of course, one thing needed to be clarified.

Pokémon were not humans.

Their durability and physical strength vastly exceeded that of ordinary people.

Ogerpon could accomplish this because her own stats were absurdly high.

If her level were equal to theirs—around the level-50 range—

then there was absolutely no way Ogerpon could have defeated all three barehanded without using Ivy Cudgel.
