152. Rampage

"Roar!"

A powerful Flamethrower fell down from the sky, and Ash's body flashed with a beautiful blue light, easily dispersing the hot flames. He looked at the figure in the sky and smiled, "You look even bigger than last time, but you are still so predictable!"

"Charizard!" Misty was so surprised that she slapped Brock accidentally by surprise. They didn't expect that at this time, arguably Ash's strongest Trump Card, Charizard, would appear out of the blue!

A loud dragon roar came from the air, Charizard fluttered his wings and landed in front of Ash's group, and then he punched Ash like nothing.

Ash connected with one of his punch, and as their fists collided, Ash could only feel a slight burn on his fist.

"Good boy!" Some time had passed since the last trip to Mt. Quena, and Ash can clearly feel that his Charizard's strength had improved even more than last time!

This is after all Ash's real Trump Card. Even if many of his other Pokémon's have completed their Bond Evolution with him, the status of Charizard and Pikachu cannot be shaken at all from his core.

Of course, Ash hopes to develop another such Trump Card that can compete with his Charizard and Pikachu. Now his Gyarados and his Tyranitar are the new candidates, and his future Pseudo-Legendary Dragonite is also in the same boat.

Following closely behind Charizard was Liza, the person in charge of the Charicific Valley, and her own little Charizard, Charla!

"Hi there Ash, Misty, and Brock. How are you guys doing?" Liza came down from the sky and gave Clair a light high-five. It was obvious that they have a good relationship going on.

She then looked at Ash and smiled, "Ash, I really didn't expect to meet you here of all places. No wonder Charizard flied so fast here after telling Charla that he felt something!"

Ash nodded it her statement, "I've been having you to take such good care of Charizard for a long time, so I should thank you!"

After hearing this, Clair finally understood what was going on, "So this Charizard is Ash's Charizard, the same one that can transform into a true Flame Dragon, right?"

The fact that Ash's Charizard can evolve into a further form, producing Dragon Flame and Wings, is nothing new as she heard and saw it with her very own eyes in her battle against Ash.

After all, when Ash let his Charizard, who was not as strong as now, chase Entei at his own turf, the Crystal Tower, it was not that surprising that Professor Oak knew about it, Lance also knew about it, and if course Clair also heard about this from Lance.

"Yes, for now I will keep him there and let him practice in Charicific Valley with the King and the others!"

Liza nodded and explained to Ash, "Clair and I have been very good friends since childhood, so I often bring some of the Charizards from Charicific Valley here to do some special training, after all this is a good place for Charizard's special training and fighting, is it not?"

"Yes!" Ash said gratefully, "Thank you for taking the trouble to bring him here!"

Liza shook his head, "I should be the one honored to be able to witness even more possibilities of you and your Charizard! By the way, Ash, since you and Clair are together here, how was the Gym Battle?"

"Of course Big Brother won!" Molly was lifted onto Charizard's shoulders, and she interrupted condescendingly, "But he hasn't gotten his Gym Badge yet!"

"Speaking of the Badge!" Clair smiled, "Ash, come with me!"

Perhaps it is because Dragonite is now staying with the Rockets Trio.

Regardless of whether it has been deceived by the Rockets or not, at least one thing can be confirmed, and that is that he will never allow the Dragon Fang that has been passed down from generation to generation to be taken away by anyone from his sight.

After hearing this, Clair and the others relaxed a lot more.

"Ash, I want to take you to the Dragons Temple!"

The group and Liza, led by Clair herself, went to the Dragon Temple deeper in the Sanctuary, which was a small temple by the lake deep in the Sanctuary.

In ancient times, when Pokémon were still considered a threat to humans, people at that time built this small temple to pray for peaceful coexistence with Pokémon.

Also enshrined here is an important item called the "Prayer's Flame" that is a symbol of the protection of the Sanctuary between humans and Dragon Pokémon's.

This is an incredible fire that has lasted for over five hundred years and is still burning hot to this day.

And what Clair wants is to take Ash to get is the Blackthorn Gym Badge, the Rising Badge, hanging on the wall of the Dragon Temple!

"No, miss!"

"Dragonite won't go inside of the Dragons Temple, right? If those people from Team Rocket are somehow misbehaving inside there, how can I come face to face with my ancestors after death!" Thinking of this possibility, not only Kaburagi, but also Ash and his group also light up.

Kaburagi's bad premonition came true. The dumb Dragonite brought the Team Rocket Trio to the Dragon Temple and clearly told the Team Rocket trio that there were important things in that small temple.

The Rockets Trio had no idea what the flames symbolized. But seeing that the things holding the flames were all made of gold, they thought that the flames must be of great significance and wanted to take it away for themselves.

But how could a legendary flame like this be so easy to obtain?

James burned himself when he tried to get close to it, and with one hit, he threw the entire gold plate into the flower garden, and the flames spread immediately!

"The fire is burning everything!" When the Rocket Trio finally noticed what was happening, the fire was already out of their control.

Then, they noticed the low roar coming from Dragonite behind them, and they suddenly felt something, "What is that sound?"

Seeing that the flames of the Dragon Temple were overturned and the flowerbed he worked so hard on was now set on fire, how could Dragonite not enter in his rage? It got ready to hit them with a devastating Dragon Pulse. Dragon Pokémon's terrifying destructive attack burst out at this moment!

"I didn't mean it, please, we apologize!"

No matter how much James apologized, Dragonite remained indifferent to his begging. It looked at the place it loved so deeply in front of him, but now it was being devoured by flames. Its rage had already stood up and was attacking almost indiscriminately, trying to destroy everything in front of him.

He has entered into Outrage!

The destruction attacks will send them flying without mercy!

Ash and his party saw smoke and fire from afar, and knew something bad was happening. There were many Pokémon living there, so all those Pokémon are now in danger of getting caught in the fire!

"Clair, I'll take care of this mess!" Ash mounted on top of his Charizard and accelerated towards that direction.

Misty and Brock saw Ash's mobility and said, "Ash is always be like this. As long as it's something about Pokémon, he will become a completely different person!"

Dragonite was still chasing the Team Rocket Trio at high speeds. Under its pursuit, the Team Rocket Trio were running around with their heads in their hands, and Dragonite's destruction Hyper Beams constantly being spat out as if they did not have any drawbacks to team.

It was in this light of destruction that the fire nearby continued to spread, gradually spreading out of the valley and into the deeper parts of the cave.

The Pokémon's were running around, as their most revered Guardian has now turned into the very thing that is bringing destruction to their home!

"Wobbuffet, please, you must succeed, use your best Counter!" Faced with the Dragonite that suddenly rushed in front of him, Jessie had to pin all her hopes on Wobbuffet's counterattack.

However, Hyper Beam is a Special Attcak, so the Counter punch was not a successful counterattack at all, and instead they were knocked away!

"Please, Dragonite, let us go!" The three idiots were covered with wounds and had to keep begging for mercy, but now the Dragonite would not listen to them, the he readied another Dragon Pulse to hit them with!

At this critical moment, a Flamethrower blocked Dragonite's Dragon Pulse from booting them.

"Team Rocket, you did a great job of ruining my day!"

Ash looked at the Rocket Trio and he were furious. These three morons were really born to cause trouble for him, and once again they have caused another such trouble for him to deal with!

"Boss!" Meowth knew he was safe when he looked at Ash and his Charizard, "It's great that you came to save us!"
