My Name of the Spirit Lucario

Gardevoir is a Pokémon with both Psychic and Fairy attributes.

A Pokémon with both Fighting and Steel attributes, Dark Lucario.

The two elves stood facing each other.

Just like when Ralts faced Riolu.

“【Illusion Ray】!”

"【Bone club hitting randomly】!"

The two elves performed their moves almost at the same time.

Gardevoir naturally followed Asuka's command and used the psychic-type moves that he was best at.

However, Dark Lucario took a different approach, abandoning the fighting skills that relied on his iron body and instead using another newly discovered move.

The ground energy condensed into bone sticks in his palm, which were then thrown out by Dark Lucario with all his strength.

The greatest power of the light fluctuations with psychedelic brilliance is to confuse the opponent's mind and make it fall into chaos. Knowing this, Dark Lucario gave up close attack and instead achieved long-range attack by throwing bone sticks.

The psychedelic light naturally had no effect on the bone sticks of the energy creatures. Fortunately, the psychic power had the characteristic of repelling foreign objects, so these bone sticks could only be bounced away one by one and could not hit Gardevoir.

"Gardevoir, [Hypnosis]."

With a flash of light, Gardevoir's eyes emitted a light that was enough to make any living being drowsy.

But the memory engraved deep in Dark Lucario's mind reminded him that he was defeated by this move that time.

And this time, how could he repeat the same mistake?

“【Super Speed】.”

The lightning-faster and more powerful impact than Lightning Flash turned Dark Lucario into a stream of light that could not be captured by the naked eye. While dodging the hypnosis, it also approached Gardevoir.

Even a rookie knows that the best way to defeat Psychic-type Pokémon is to get close to them.

But Gardevoir is not an ordinary psychic-type Pokémon.

"Use [Magic Flash]!"

After giving the order, Asuka quickly closed his eyes.

A dazzling light suddenly exploded. This was the usual combat tactic used by Asuka Teru and Gardevoir. They used telekinesis to attack from a long distance, and when the opponent could no longer bear it and wanted to fight in close combat, a fairy light that illuminated the entire field was enough to make the careless opponent lose his vision.

However, Dark Lucario has seen this move too many times.

He had already taken precautions when he used [Super Speed].

The moment the light suddenly appeared, he quickly dug down with his claws, allowing the entire elf to burrow into the ground.

【Digging a hole】

Dark Lucario didn't stay underground for too long. With the help of [Super Speed], he had already approached very close to Gardevoir. He hid in the east just to avoid the dazzling flash. So he broke out of the ground directly, and then punched Gardevoir, who was standing still, with a [Rock Crushing] punch.

However, this punch passed through the air.

"[Shadow Clone]."

What was hit was just a phantom clone of Gardevoir that was left there at some point in time.

And not only that, there are a large number of "Gardevoir" in the dream space at this time.

They raised their hands and chanted in the direction of Dark Lucario.

"【Strong Mind】!"

The powerful telekinesis instantly pressed down on Dark Lucario like a heavy hammer, as if trying to pin it to the ground and prevent it from moving.

"little tricks."

Dark Lucario snorted coldly. He knew that the appearance of so many Gardevoirs on the field using [Psychic Power] at the same time seemed exaggerated, but in fact, except for the real bodies, the others were just phantoms for show.

As long as the real body is found, this trick will be useless.

He opened his mouth.

"Ow!"

A dragon roar actually came out of the mouth of Dark Lucario.

At the same time, a strong shock wave suddenly arose in the space, and a large number of clones that were swept through were directly destroyed.

Dragon attribute move, [Dragon Wave].

The large-scale impact of dragon-attribute energy not only eliminated the phantom clone, but also caught Gardevoir off guard and was hit by the shock wave.

"Cough cough."

Gardevoir, whose physical strength was average to begin with, had to pause, take a few breaths, and relieve the pain in her body.

"There's actually this move... Gardevoir, [Life Drop]."

Asuhi Teru didn't expect that Dark Lucario would actually have a move called [Dragon Wave].

Fortunately, however, dragon-attribute moves do not cause too much damage to Gardevoir, which originally has fairy-type attributes. Even if Asuka Teru does not have healing medicine, Gardevoir itself has learned moves that can heal itself.

The crystal clear water drops fell on his body, greatly relieving the pain caused by the shock wave.

Even Gardevoir's consumed energy was restored a little.

"Gardevoir, use [Mist Field]."

Out of caution, Asuka had Gardevoir use a field skill that covered the entire field.

[Misty Field] can prevent the Pokémon from falling into abnormal states, and can also greatly reduce the power of dragon-attribute moves.

As for Dark Lucario, dragon-attribute moves are just moves that can be used to get out of trouble.

His real strength lies in his invincible close combat skills.

Thus, a tug-of-war ensued between an elf that was good at long-range attacks and an elf that was trying to get a chance for close combat.

"【Mental Shock】."

"[Mental Noise]."

"【Strong Mind】."

Gardevoir's successive super moves gradually annoyed Dark Lucario, who kept looking for opportunities to get close but was bounced back every time.

The two sides have been fighting until now, and Dark Lucario no longer pursues any delicate operations. Every punch and every kick tries to use the simplest and roughest method to break Gardevoir's protection of itself.

For the latter, this stalemate battle was not easy. Every super move he used consumed Gardevoir's telekinesis rapidly. Even though Gardevoir's telekinesis was several times stronger than that of Pokémon of the same level, it could not withstand such a constant consumption.

Dark Lucario's strategy was not wrong. As long as he continued to oppress Gardevoir, after a short while, Gardevoir would be unable to stop the former's advance due to excessive consumption of its telekinesis.

Asuka Teru knew it in her heart.

However, the girl will not waste this so-called short time.

Seeing the pink mist rising in the misty field, which had already wrapped around Dark Lucario without her noticing, the girl knew that the moment she had been waiting for had finally come.

"Gardevoir, [Mist Explosion]!"

Unlike his previous orders to use psychic-type moves, this time, Asuka chose to let Gardevoir use fairy-type moves.

[Mist Explosion], as the name suggests, is to directly detonate the mist, thus producing terrible destructive power.

"Bang bang bang bang bang", the fog kept exploding like bombs.

And Dark Lucario was only then aware that he had been wrapped in so much mist without knowing when.

It's no different than having explosives wrapped around your body.

"Bang bang bang bang bang", violent explosions exploded on Dark Lucario, submerging this Pokémon emitting black air in the smoke of the explosion.

When the smoke cleared, a wounded Dark Lucario appeared in front of Asu and Gardevoir.

If it were just now, Dark Lucario would definitely take out the "Full Recovery Potion" without hesitation to restore himself to full health.

But this time, for some reason, a strong sense of restlessness surged from his heart, making him irritable.

Dark Lucario stood up despite the injuries all over his body.

He stretched out his right hand and spoke in a cold but also aggressive tone.

"I didn't want to use this trick, but you forced me to do it."

There was an inexplicable fluctuation in the air, and then Ming Rizhao discovered that a dark red fire appeared on his body.

Not only Asuaki, but also Gardevoir, Takuma, Zeraora, and even the Dream Demon floating in the air, all "burned" with similar flames.

Having experienced the situation last time, Takuma naturally knew what this red flame was.

He immediately shouted anxiously.

"Everyone, hurry up, this is a flame that extracts souls, it's not something we can contend with!!!"

Contaminated by dark forces, the wave force that was originally used to coordinate and purify the souls of living things has now turned into an evil force that wantonly extracts the souls of living things.

Moreover, this extremely evil power that controls the soul cannot be resisted by any moves.

A trace of red light was drawn from the bodies of all people (Pokemon) and flowed into the body of Dark Lucario.

Humans or elves whose soul power has been extracted feel suddenly weak.

"Xiao Jie, hurry up, get everyone..."

Takuma endured the feeling of weakness in his body, and planned to let Zeraora use speed to take everyone away from this mysterious space like last time, so as to cut off Dark Lucario's control over the souls.

However, the boy heard Asuhi Teru chuckle.

“So this is your pain.”

Asuhi Teru straightened his back and looked at the ferocious-looking Dark Lucario from afar.

"Lonely, lonely, doubtful, confused, I'm so stupid, why didn't I notice it all along?"

The girl muttered to herself, her face firm, as if the soul power that was extracted was not hers.

"Pokemon and trainers are partners who are connected in spirit."

"Your loneliness."

"Your loneliness."

"Your doubts."

"Your confusion."

"Let me share the responsibility!"

Asuhi Teru clenched his fists and shouted loudly.

"Unparalleled connection, on!"

……

The invincible state is a powerful posture that is displayed when the trainer and the Pokémon are in spiritual communication and have comprehended a common path.

Asuhiro always remembered what old man Akagi said in Fuquan Town.

So when she learned from Takuma that Leo's wave power had turned into this weird form, she already had a plan in mind.

That is to convey her true feelings to Leo's heart through the spiritual connection, to call back the real Leo who shared their joys and sorrows and had many deep memories with them.

……

The bond is built between Asuka and Dark Lucario.

The red flames were forcibly drawn out from the bodies of the others and all gathered on Asuka Akira's body, and the thread that extracted the soul also became much thicker in an instant.

This means that the speed of extracting Asuka's soul will continue to increase.

The girl's face turned pale instantly, but there was no regret in her eyes.

One step at a time, even though it was very difficult to move, she still walked towards the direction of Dark Lucario without hesitation and with firm steps.

Dark Lucario's expression was extremely ugly. He shouted angrily, "Are you crazy? Your soul will be drained out very quickly at this rate!"

"you will die!"

This sentence doesn't sound like a creature infected by the power of darkness at all.

Asuhi Teru showed a relieved smile and continued to walk towards him step by step.

"Crazy? Maybe? But what I hate more is myself for ignoring the pain of my friends."

"What kind of trainer is he if he can't make his Pokémon feel at ease?"

"So, come back, Leo!"

"we need you."

"We have always been, your family!"

"Thump", perhaps because of Asuka's action, the soul fire burned more fiercely, which made the girl weaker. Asuka fell to the ground, but she gritted her teeth and stood up again and continued to move forward.

Dark Lucario's expression became increasingly ugly, with a look of pain distorting his features.

"Although what you said is true, how can we let Xiaozhao bear all this alone? You know, Leo, you are my best friend."

The boy's voice sounded, and then a hand was placed on Asuhi Teru's shoulder.

Takuma's eyes flashed with the same determination.

He remembered that he had gone through all the dangers in the Crescent Forest in great fear, and the moment he woke up, he saw the kind smile of an elf.

The red flames burned on Takuma's body.

"Bubu!"

The Poké Ball opened and Eevee jumped onto Asuhi Teru's head.

She remembered that when she was kidnapped again and taken to that dark cage, it was an elf that broke into the cage regardless of the danger and brought the light of hope to her in despair.

The red flames burned on Ibrahimovic's body.

"..."

Zoroark also came out, without saying a word, and put his arm around Asuhi Teru's other shoulder.

He also remembered how, for many days and nights, a certain elf would pass by him intentionally or unintentionally in order to relieve his melancholy, and then chat with him and help him untie his knot.

The red flames burned onto Zoroark's body.

"Roar."

The Charizard grabbed Zoroark with its claws, and did not forget to glare at the red flames.

He missed the time when he was born from an elf egg and was guided by an elf to get to know the world with ignorance and the unknown.

The red flames burned on the Charizard's body.

"Mengmeng!"

The Dream Demon was doing two things at once, maintaining the dream space while not forgetting to stick close to Eevee.

She could not forget that elf who traveled through time and space, like a brave hero, brought peace back to the place she loved most.

The red flames burned on the dream demon's body.

"Ey."

Gardevoir hugged everyone with her little arms.

Travel together, live together, fight together, escape together, enjoy together, grieve together, rejoice together.

Leo has become an indispensable part of her life.

That was the light he shone into our darkness, and now it is up to us to cast this light into his heart.

The red flames burned onto Gardevoir's body.

Also, every elf and human, even Zeraora, with whom Takuma had a shallow relationship, placed their claws on Takuma's shoulders, enduring the pain of having their souls extracted.

"You, you..."

Expressions of crying, laughing, relief, or helplessness appeared on Lucario's face.

The thread of soul extraction bent and became quite unstable.

Due to the connection of the Wushuang bond, Dark Lucario is unable to sever his connection with this group of people and the Pokémon.

And maybe it was because he was in another space, the dark power that originally perfectly occupied his mind was now constantly weakening.

There was a will that was violently fluctuating in his heart.

It seems like it wants to break free from some kind of restraints!

Tomorrow will continue, step by step, moving forward.

Finally, she arrived in front of Dark Lucario.

In Lucario's eyes, the girl's face was reflected. Although she was weak, she still had a gentle smile on her face.

Asuhi Teru opened his arms and held the bewildered Lucario in his arms.

Then he said softly.

"Leo, welcome back."

The red flame instantly turned into pure blue light.

All the people and elves felt a purifying force flowing into their bodies, replenishing their consumed soul power.

Everyone laughed.

Only the elf hesitated for a moment, then reached out and hugged the girl in front of him.

Leo laughed too.

"Well, I'm back."
