Chapter 254: The End

"Mew!" Mew didn't care about Ash's situation at this time. It propelled the massive energy ball above its head and launched it towards Mewtwo!

The energy ball started slowly, gaining speed, and nothing in its path could offer any resistance!

"I am... I will not lose! I am... Mewtwo! Mewtwo who surpasses Mew!" Mewtwo roared, unleashing his full power, maximizing Psystrike's might. Even space itself began to distort, and cracks appeared within Psystrike's range!

Such terrifying power crumbled upon contact with Genesis Supernova, unable to even shake the massive energy ball!

"How is this possible..." Mewtwo was stunned and tried to increase its energy output, but it had already reached its limit. It could only convert its physical strength into energy to sustain Psystrike.

But Genesis Supernova, driven by Mew, relentlessly advanced towards Mewtwo, overwhelming Psystrike!

"No! I definitely... will not lose to Mew!" Mewtwo roared in defiance, but to no avail. He watched helplessly as the colossal energy ball descended upon him!

Genesis Supernova struck Mewtwo, and for a moment, everything froze. The hurricane subsided, and the world seemed to hold its breath.

Then, cross-shaped rays of light erupted, followed by a cataclysmic explosion that soared into the sky. A violent hurricane swept through, engulfing everyone and everything in its destructive path.

Marshadow rushed to Pidgeot, shielding Ash and the Pokémon, while simultaneously checking Ash's condition. As the impact hit, Marshadow deployed a dark purple energy veil, protecting Ash from harm.

Examining Ash, Marshadow's brow furrowed. Ash's condition was dire.

The rapid exhaustion of physical and mental strength had sent Ash into shock. His will to survive was fading.

If this continued, Ash would likely perish!

Meanwhile, the storm gradually subsided. Mew watched Mewtwo, who had reappeared but was on the verge of collapse. Even Recover couldn't save him now.

"How... how did this happen..." Mewtwo barely managed to stay afloat, staring blankly into the distance.

He had been defeated by his rival, Mew, the one he despised...

Despite his reluctance, Mewtwo had to acknowledge that Mew was now stronger than him.

"Mew..." Mew's condition wasn't optimal either. Using the Z-move had taken a toll on its physical and mental strength.

However, seeing Mewtwo's state, Mew didn't linger. It needed to reach Ash urgently.

Mew understood the consequences of using Z-moves twice in such a short time. Ash was on the brink of death and needed immediate help.

"Is it over? Did you really... defeat Mewtwo this time?!" In the distance, Misty and the others, thanks to Pidgeot's efforts, remained unharmed.

They saw the nearly unconscious Mewtwo and Mew rushing towards Ash.

"Ash!" Although Misty and Brock didn't know what had happened, they sensed something was amiss and looked towards Ash with worry.

"Can I ask you to take me to Ash?" Misty pleaded with Yusho. Only his Pidgeot could get them close to Ash.

"This..." Yusho hesitated, unsure of the outcome. Approaching rashly could be dangerous.

"Please!" Brock also begged, deeply concerned about Ash.

"Pika..." Pikachu, having recovered some strength, came over. It looked towards Ash, reaching out with its tiny hand, wanting to be by his side.

"Let's go..." Green urged Yusho.

Even Hiroshi, though initially resentful towards Ash, was moved. He had to admire Ash's courage and determination in such a perilous battle.

"Okay!" Yusho agreed and commanded Pidgeot to fly towards Ash.

"Mew!" Mew landed on Pidgeot's back, assessed the unconscious Ash, and inquired about his condition from Marshadow.

"Marsha..." Marshadow shook its head slightly, indicating Ash's grave situation.

"Mew!" Mew examined Ash and, despite his dire state, felt a glimmer of hope. Ash was close to death, but Mew was confident it could save him.

As Mew, possessing the genes of countless Pokémon, it had mastered a vast array of moves. It would use its knowledge and power to revive Ash.

Water-type energy surged as Mew channeled its remaining strength. It cupped its tiny hands, and a large water drop formed, shimmering with healing energy.

Releasing the water drop, it fell gently onto Ash, emitting a soothing chime.

The water spread across Ash's body, restoring his physical strength. However, his spirit remained weak.

Even so, Ash's condition has stabilized thanks to his body's recovery, preventing further deterioration. However, for Ash to regain consciousness, his spirit needs replenishment, which neither Mew nor Marshadow can provide at this time.

In the distance, Mewtwo observed the scene, its gaze fixated on Ash with a complex expression.

Without Ash's intervention, the battle between Mewtwo and Mew would have undoubtedly resulted in Mewtwo's victory. But because of this boy, Mewtwo had failed and lost to Mew.
