"I order you, Professor, to leave Anistar City imdiately! Otherwise, things won't end so simply next ti. And that boy with the Pikachu—take your companions and leave Anistar City at once!"
Carrie glared at Ash and Professor Sycamore, with her Sableye and Sigilyph standing nacingly at her side.
"What's going on here? Why are you suddenly attacking us?"
"That's so rude! What if soone got hurt?"
Clemont's sister Bonnie and Serena imdiately snapped back at Carrie, anger written all over their faces.
"Frogadier, it's your turn—make her quiet down."
Ash didn't waste ti with words. He called out Frogadier directly.
He wanted to know—because of him, could Mada Olympia still glimpse Frogadier's future?
Now that he had captured so many Legendary Pokémon, there was no way Olympia could still see through it all… right?
"Hmph! Sableye, use Shadow Claw! Sigilyph, use Psywave!"
"Frogaaa!"
In an instant, Frogadier split into dozens of afterimages, surrounding both Sigilyph and Sableye.
"Aerial Ace!"
Frogadier's first target was the airborne Sigilyph!
In a flash, its Aerial Ace tore across the battlefield, striking Sigilyph hard and sending it crashing from the skies.
Carrie's eyes went wide. That speed!
Sigilyph hadn't even had the chance to unleash its attack before Frogadier's strike had already taken it out.
Sableye lunged forward, Shadow Claw gleaming in the dark as it slashed at Frogadier.
"Water Pulse!"
A deep-blue orb of water surged forth, blocking the Shadow Claw mid-swing.
"Froga! Frogadier!"
Ash didn't give Frogadier any further commands—the Pokémon was battling entirely on its own instincts now.
It ripped the frothy bubbles from around its neck and flung them into Sableye's eyes, blinding its vision.
The two Pokémon landed on the ground, and the instant their feet touched down, Frogadier darted forward like lightning!
"Aerial Ace!"
"Sableye, hurry, counter—wait, what!?"
Before Carrie could finish her command, Sableye was already hit. Frogadier's Aerial Ace connected perfectly, followed by a swift kick that sent Sableye sprawling, knocked out cold.
Inside Ash's mind, the familiar sound of Frogadier gaining battle experience and leveling up echoed faintly.
"Damn it! How dare you fight back!? Mada Olympia will punish you for this!"
Carrie's teeth clenched in fury.
This boy in the red cap… how dare he strike down her Sigilyph and Sableye!
"That's enough, Carrie. Stop at once."
A new voice floated down from above.
Two figures slowly descended, carried effortlessly by the psychic powers of two owstic.
Yes—floated.
Guided by the twin owstic's psychic energy, the two figures landed gracefully. One was none other than Mada Olympia herself. The other, her most loyal disciple—Charlene.
As they touched down, Charlene's expression imdiately darkened at the sight of Carrie.
"Carrie, this isn't the first ti you've acted rashly and misunderstood Mada Olympia's foresight. You know the rules. If you keep disobeying… next ti, you won't remain her disciple."
Carrie's face twisted as if she had just swallowed a fly.
"My disciple's rude actions and the trouble caused—I offer my deepest apologies."
Olympia, in contrast, was calm and composed, her tone polite.
Charlene quickly tugged at Carrie's sleeve, forcing her to bow and apologize along with her.
But Olympia's eyes didn't linger on Professor Sycamore. Instead, she turned her sharp gaze toward Ash.
Or rather—toward Ash's Frogadier.
She had witnessed the entire battle just monts ago.
The speed… the precision of its attacks… Frogadier was flawless.
"Hm? This is…"
Olympia's eyes narrowed, her vision clouding with a strange shimr. She saw hazy, indistinct fragnts of sothing. This Frogadier was far from ordinary.
But because of Ash, her foresight wasn't as clear as it should have been.
When her gaze shifted directly onto Ash—her entire being trembled.
Nothing.
No future.
"How… how is this possible!?"
For the first ti, Olympia's composure broke.
This boy in the red cap… when she tried to glimpse his future, all she saw was a blank void.
No paths. No outcos. Nothing.
To see no future ant that one did not exist… but such a thing should be impossible!
"Mada Olympia, what is it? Did you see sothing shocking?"
It was Charlene's first ti seeing her master's expression falter so drastically.
"…No. I didn't see anything. I rely recalled so matters, that is all." Olympia steadied her voice. "Everyone, follow to the Anistar Gym."
And so, they arrived at the Anistar Gym.
"I already know you ca here to challenge . Whatever else needs to be said, we will speak after our battle."
Olympia's intuition was rarely wrong.
"Wow, that's amazing! We didn't even say anything, but she already knew Ash wanted to challenge the Anistar Gym."
Serena couldn't help but stare in awe at Olympia, her mysterious aura sending shivers down her spine.
anwhile, up in the stands, Carrie had no choice but to watch silently, burning with resentnt. She cursed Ash under her breath, wishing desperately for her master to crush him in battle.
But alas—her curse was destined to fail.
Ding! [Congratulations, host. Successfully arrived at Anistar Gym. Beginning sign-in…]
