Shiny Metagross and World's No. 1 Martial Arts Meeting

A bright light quickly enveloped shiny Metang's entire body.

"What?"

Aisha was stunned.

Immediately after, an uncontrollable ecstasy climbed onto his face.

It was the Light of Evolution.

Its appearance meant that a Pokémon had evolved.

Shiny Metang, finally evolved!

"Me-ta-!!!"

The roar of shiny Metang erupted from under the light.

Under the light of evolution, its already large steel body rapidly expanded and changed once again.

The main body of the Metang grew taller, longer, and swelled to more than twice its original size.

The two thick steel arms that poked out from the bottom of the main body disappeared at some point, probably retracting back into the main body.

Then, like a robot, four gaps opened up on the top of the main body, and four incredibly thick steel hands, as powerful as the pillars of the heavens, stretched out from it.

At the end of each steel arm were three sharp claws, like sharp knives.

The link between these four arms and the main body was a strange spherical joint.

The spikes on its face gradually unfolded into a huge X-shaped metal sheet.

Underneath the metal piece, a large mouth opened and closed, revealing its inner fangs...

"Me-ta-!!!"

An even more powerful roar echoed through the living room.

The light of evolution dissipated without a trace, and the silver-white and gold-white steel beast slammed down onto the floor with a solid thud.

The silver-white body reflected brightly in the warm sunlight.

The golden claws and the X-shaped metal plates on its face flashed with a dangerous aura.

Inside the black eye sockets, the pair of bright red eyes, as always, did not have any feelings, like a thoughtless robot...

No.

How can it be emotionless?

In fact, the calculation power had already reached the standard of evolution, but it lacked an opportunity to evolve emotionally, so shiny Metang did not evolve.

How could it not feel "feelings" after it tasted the flavor of "touch" and evolved?

"Me-ta-!"

The shiny Metagross let out a steady, electronic voice.

Its pair of bright red eyes swept across the room, and when they touched Aisha, they became gentle.

In fact, Metagross's eyes don't show much emotion.

But...

The way it looked at Aisha, it always gave the impression that it was looking at him gently.

"Congratulations."

Aisha's heart was filled with emotion as he met the gentle eyes of the shiny Metagross and felt its feelings.

He stood up, looked at shiny Metagross, and said, "Your long time wish, is accomplished."

"Metagross, congratulations on your evolution!"

"Me-ta-!!!"

The shiny Metagross added a touch of joy to its cry.

After completing its evolution, it was no less than the largest Charizard in the original team, and jumped at Aisha with a smile.

"Eh!"

Aisha was startled.

The speed of the shiny Metagross was extremely fast, and as it advanced on the ground, it was as aggressive as a giant steel chariot.

In an instant, the shiny Metagross with a trail of shadows behind it arrived in front of Aisha.

It stretched out its two arms in front of it, and carefully and gently picked up Aisha with a strength that was afraid of hurting him.

"Haha, you child..."

Aisha, whose feet left the ground and rose up in the air, couldn't help but laugh as she gazed at the large face of the tiny Metagross who was close at hand.

However, his smile was rather complicated.

In fact, he was aware of the fact that shiny Metang wanted to evolve...

Previously, when Charizard was experimenting with mega evolution in the Evergreen Forest, he and shiny Metang had also talked about this issue.

At first, shiny Metang was the strongest member of Aisha's team, besides Caterpie.

It was responsible for the high intensity of the resistance and the main c-role in the Dojo Challenge.

However, the problem with Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon is that the evolution and growth cycle is too long.

Metagross is the Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon with the lowest level requirement for final evolution.

However, compared to ordinary Pokémon such as Azumarill and Charizard, it still takes too long to evolve...

Metang, who had lost his position as "Caterpie's No. 1 Ace" because his friends had evolved one after another, inevitably became anxious.

Luckily.

Aisha at the time realized his problem and gave him some guidance.

This alleviated shiny Metang's psychological problems.

At the same time, after realizing that the reason Azumarill and Charizard were in such a hurry to evolve was to share the pressure on themselves, shiny Metang's understanding of relationships was further enhanced...

Now, with Aisha's cooking as an opportunity, it has finally completed its final evolution.

It became tiny Metagross.

It became a real Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon, and a tiny Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon!

The feelings that had been suppressed for a long time were finally released.

In contrast, the power that had been stored up since its birth would also be completely released from the moment it completed its final evolution...

"Me-ta-!"

With a confident look in his eyes, shiny Metagross knew very well that his strength was increasing rapidly.

Not only that, but in the coming period of time, it would also have a period of progress where its strength would soar.

After this period of improvement, it would be the strongest Pokémon in Aisha's possession!

"Me-ta-!!!"

shiny Metagross glanced at Azumarill and Charizard at the dinner table, a "provocative" color showing in his bright red eyes.

You two, don't let me overtake you again!

"Roar?"

"Rou?"

Charizard and Azumarill froze.

They looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Just now... Metagross was provoking them?

"Roar!"

"Dew!"

The two Pokémon couldn't help but show their surprise.

Before shiny Metagross had evolved, when had they ever seen this guy show any other emotions other than the desire to fight?

And now he's even learned how to provoke?

This is good, this is good!

Azumarill and Charizard didn't care if shiny Metagross was provoking them.

All they knew was that this iron lump, who never knew how to express his feelings, had finally gotten the hang of it!

"Roar!"

Charizard took the lead.

He had the best relationship with shiny Metang, so with a big smile on his face, he hugged the main body of shiny Metagross.

"Rue!"

Azumarill followed suit, jumping onto the spacious, flat, and thick body of the shiny Metagross, smiling happily.

It was only at this point that the two Pokémon truly realized how much tiny Metagross had changed.

Charizard was three meters tall, but the tiny Metagross was two and a half meters tall when it was just standing normally.

Not only that, but shiny Metagross is a horizontal grower.

Although not as tall as Charizard, with its four thick metal arms, this guy is a real steel beast!

It's a real steel beast.

At least, Azumarill stood above shiny Metagross's head, and it felt, well, like flying an airplane!

"Me-ta-!!!"

Feeling Charizard and Azumarill's hands pounding and groping his body, shiny Metagross froze.

Uh...

It was logical, at least according to the previous dramas that shiny Metagross had watched.

After acquiring new powers and provoking his former rivals, shouldn't Charizard and Azumarill have provoked them back and said that they "will never lose to you"?

But what's with the "you're finally getting the hang of it" look on their faces?

"..."

shiny Metagross fell silent.

Even with its four brains, its supercomputer-level intelligence and computational power, it was inevitably down when faced with the unusual and unconventional Charizard and Azumarill.

Hmmm...

After some thought, shiny Metagross finally realized.

It looked at Charizard, who was cradling his main body, and Azumarill, who was clutching the x-metal piece on his face, and had an answer in its heart.

"Me-ta-!!!"

So, you guys are idiots.

"Roar!"

"Loo!"

Charizard and Azumarill glared at each other.

Who are you calling an idiot?

You want to fight, you iron lump?

"Me-ta-!!!" shiny Metagross's eyes curled.

As expected, it's an idiot.

"Yui!"

Larvitar reacted and ran over to me, flinging his arms happily.

"Ruu!"

"So cool.

Ralts did the same.

These two children, one of them is a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon with shiny Metagross, and is the only one in the team who eats rocks, while the other is a Super Power Attribute Pokémon, and is shiny Metagross' successor in the team for the Super Power Attribute position, so they are on good terms with each other.

"Yui..."

Touching shiny Metagross's sturdy metal arm and looking up at his height, which required him to raise his head to see his face, Larvitar envied him fiercely.

He had seen his final evolution in the video.

It was as tall and powerful as Metagross.

Unfortunately, he was still just a small Larvitar, far from evolving into a handsome Tyranitar.

"By..."

Larvitar couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.

Then, it suddenly felt a weight on its head.

When it looked up, it realized that shiny Metagross had put down Aisha and was holding her head with one hand.

"By?"

Larvitar looked puzzled.

"Me-ta-!!!"

The shiny Metagross soothed his agitation with a calm, reliable voice.

Looking at Larvitar, who was eager to evolve, shiny Metagross seemed to see a shadow of his former self.

But...

While comforting Larvitar, shiny Metagross couldn't help but think of the time when he hadn't yet evolved, and Aisha had comforted him over and over again.

"Me-ta..."

shiny Metagross couldn't help but look at Aisha who was standing next to him with a smile on her face.

Warm currents of emotion flowed through his heart of steel, which was no longer cold...

Everyone came forward to congratulate him.

Umbreon and shiny Haunter looked up and down at shiny Metagross with curiosity.

Chansey was kind enough to bring a hand towel to wipe the gold x-metal from shiny Metagross's face.

The atmosphere in the living room was a joyous one.

The Rotom phone carefully photographed all the corners of the evolved and powerful shiny Metagross.

The silver and gold coloring of the body.

Thick arms, cool eyes, wide body...

Handsome!

After watching the entire evolution of shiny Metagross, the fans were abuzz in the live broadcast room.

"What kind of evolution is this?"

"Worthy of being a top breeder... Instructor Ai and shiny Metagross's closeness is already full."

"Hiss, shiny Metagross is really handsome, worthy of being one of only two shiny steel Pseudo-Legendary in the world!"

"Why do I feel that Instructor Ai's shiny Metagross looks even more handsome than Mr. Steven's shiny Metagross, and the silver parts are even brighter?"

"I'm so envious, I'm envious that Instructor Ai has such a good Pokémon like shiny Metagross, and I'm envious that shiny Metagross has such a good trainer like Instructor Ai..."

Suddenly, a burst of gift effects flew out of the live broadcast room.

Everyone took a look, but it turned out to be Mr. Steven Zwolch, who was the second most popular person on the live broadcast list, who had rewarded the most expensive gift on the entire platform.

The gift was accompanied by the following message: "I've believed from the beginning that you could raise this child well, thank you, Ai-kun".

The fans were once again in an uproar.

In front of the computer, Steven couldn't help but smile with emotion as he looked at the tiny Metagross in the live feed, and Aisha and the Pokémon surrounding it.

"This kid, really found a good home."

At first, the shiny Metagross that was still a shiny Iron Dumbbell was Steven's favorite child.

When he decided to give the shiny iron dumbbell to Aisha, he also had a struggle in his heart.

However, Steven's trust in Aisha made him give it up.

And as it turns out...

His decision was not wrong.

The shiny Iron Dumbbell, under Aisha's training, not only changed his bully's personality, but also became a strong and understanding child.

"Me-ta-!!!" A thick voice came from behind Steven.

It was Steven's shiny Metagross, and Instructor Ai's shiny Metagross's mother and father.

Gazing at the child on the screen with bright red eyes, Steven's shiny Metagross was also filled with emotion.

The child had grown up...

"That's nice." Touching his partner's arm, Steven smiled and spoke from his heart.

"Me-ta-!!!"

"Speak up."

Stroking his chin, Steven looked thoughtfully at the table of food inside the screen.

"I haven't eaten Ai-kun's cooking yet... Should I invite him to Hoenn for a while?"

...

"Okay~"

Looking at everyone who was happy because of the evolution of shiny Metagross, Instructor Ai waved his hand.

"Don't gather around, let's eat!"

Upon hearing this, everyone, including shiny Metagross, obediently returned to their seats.

Instructor Ai had made a lot of food today because he was happy, so even if shiny Metagross had evolved, he would still have enough to eat.

However, Instructor Ai was paying attention to other things.

This living room, this table... Even with the huge tiny Metagross and Charizard in the room at the same time, it doesn't feel crowded.

On the floor, shiny Metagross's scrubbing of the floor just now had not left a single scratch on its wooden surface...

"What a wonderful house the boss has prepared for me."

Instructor Ai sighed.

...

Magic City, Dayan League branch.

"Master Lt. Surge, we have finished handling the matters of the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Meeting that you wanted to organize."

A man in work clothes, with a respectful face, reported the progress of the work towards an old man in front of him wearing an unremarkable tracksuit and sneakers, with a hat covering his big bald head and white eyebrows and long beard, saying: "Moreover, the registration for World's No. 1 Martial Arts Meeting closed this morning, and we have received a lot of applications for both online and offline registration channels," he said. We've received a lot of applications from outstanding trainers both online and offline."

He handed Lt. Surge a tablet.

"This is the list of participants that we have determined to be qualified after screening, please take a look."

"Thank you!"

The old man stroked his beard and responded to the staff's words with a strange accent, then took the tablet and looked through the list of contestants.

As he read on, a satisfied look appeared on Lt. Surge's old face.

"Not bad, not bad at all..."

The little old man smiled happily.

"Dayan has had a lot of good seedlings over the years, good!"

"It's great that you like it." The staff responded honestly.

His eyes were filled with respect as he looked at the old man.

For no other reason than Lt. Surge was not only a powerful trainer, but also an unrivaled martial arts master.

The reward of the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Meeting was only to follow Lt. Surge to his Armored Isle for a period of time.

Nonetheless, this opportunity to train with a powerful man had attracted countless young trainers to him, which was a testament to his influence.

"Hmm... Huh?"

Suddenly, Lt. Surge's hand paused as he scratched the screen.

The tablet showed a picture and profile of a serious-looking girl with brown skin and short gray hair.

The profile said she was from the Galar region.

"Heh," Lt. Surge laughed, shaking his head, and continued to scroll down until he saw another player that caught his eye.

"Come here, little man, let's talk about something."

"What?"

The staff looked puzzled.

Then, he saw Lt. Surge zoom in on Aisha's profile on the tablet.

"This young man, we're arranging for him to fight the champion of this Budokai..."

"Huh?"
