Pokémon, hatching Nergigante at the start

Chapter 396: Quarterfinals!
After the opening ceremony, the portraits of the eight people on the big screen began to appear randomly.

Bai Chen confirmed that his first battle would be against Zhu Lan, currently the second-ranked master.

The order of other appearances has also been decided.

Emperor Dan versus Adu.

Daigo versus Adek.

Yeci to Kaluni.

Four decisive battles are set.

Bai Chen and Zhu Lan stayed at the scene, while the other champions retreated, waiting for the battle to end.

Bai Chen and Zhu Lan came to the command seats on both sides respectively.

The referee read out the rules of the game.

This is a 3v3 match. You can switch Pokémon at will during the match. Whoever's Pokémon loses its combat ability first will lose the match.

Another and most important thing is that each person can only use the combat system once.

You can only choose one of the 6 Pokémon to use once.

After confirming the rules, Zhulan sent out her Pokkis first.

Bai Chen also sent out his companions: "Bud Crown King, it's decided to be you."

When the Rape Crown King appeared on the scene, the Blizzard Horse under him raised its hooves and stomped heavily on the ground, and the ground was immediately covered with frost.

Even the areas protected outside the shield were covered with frost, and the temperature at the scene instantly dropped by 10 to 20 degrees.

Ragnarok is one of the most powerful Pokémon in the Galar region, more powerful than both Sanghika and Zangmarant.

Moreover, the Bud Crown King has two titles: [King] and [Mercy].

The title of King strengthens the skill of the King of the Flower Crown called [Temple of Faith]. This title greatly improves his endurance.

The power of the Crown of Flowers is affected by the number of believers.

The stronger the people who believe in him, the more his strength and attributes will increase, and all attributes can be increased up to six times.

However, the title of "King" has removed the upper limit of the improvement. Now, with the support of the Pokémon in the Crown Treads, the Bud Crown can increase all attributes by 10 times.

The title of [King] also has a flaw, which is that it is impossible to obtain more than 6 times the bonus outside the territory of the kingdom.

A king can only demonstrate his strongest fighting power in his own kingdom.

He once relied on this faith bonus to compete with Bai Chen's Origin Giant.

Now the Crown Snowfield is his kingdom, and the Palace Gate Arena is not included in it, so unfortunately, his title cannot be activated.

Then there is his title of [Mercy]. This title does not strengthen a certain skill, but directly strengthens all recovery-type moves and allows the Crown of Flowers to use all types of recovery-type moves.

When the title of [Compassion] is in effect, the cost of all of the Crown of Flowers' recovery skills is reduced by 90% and the healing amount is increased by 100%.

At that time, the Lotus Crown King relied on his kindness to fight a war of attrition with Bai Chen for five days.

It was not until his physical strength was no longer able to continue using healing moves that the Lotus Crown King was defeated by Bai Chen.

Since this time, in this battle, Bai Chen has to face the Dan Emperor who has reached the mythical realm, in order to win the victory steadily, he will need to send in his titled partners.

After the Bud Crown King appeared on stage, the hosts on the scene almost lost their voices.

"It's actually Bud Crown! After Ho-Oh, Bai Chen brought the second mythical Pokémon!"

Most people in the Galar region grew up listening to the legend of King Tiara, and many people regard this legendary king of kindness as a fairy tale.

But I never thought that one day I would be able to see the bud crown king here.

The atmosphere on the scene rose to a higher level again.

There were cheers all around.

Before both sides were ready to start fighting, Bai Chen also abided by the rules of the competition and took off the mask on his face.

Because Bai Chen's true face cannot be captured on the big screen, only people in the front row who are closer to Bai Chen can see Bai Chen's true face.

This also caused a small shock among these people.

The battle begins!
Zhulan was the first to let her Pokkis use the air blade.

The storm rushed towards the Flower Crown King below.

I saw the Rose Crown King standing in the same place but using the reflection wall.

Pokkis's air blade was actually swallowed up by the reflection wall.

It can't cause any waves at all.

Seeing this scene, Bamboo Ran, as the champion of the Sinnoh region, immediately realized the gap in combat power.

Without any reservation, Zhulan let Togekiss use the enhanced move. When Togekiss reached six times the full attribute attack, Togekiss was finally able to break through the reflection wall of the Crown of Buds.

But that's all. Just breaking the reflective wall is already a lot of trouble, so wanting to defeat the Flower Crown King is just wishful thinking.

Under Takenori's command, Togekiss used a more powerful move, but as soon as Togekiss raised his hand, Bud Crown used a gravity move.

Pokkiss in the air fell heavily to the ground, and even flying became extremely difficult.

At this moment, the Flower Crown King also condensed the Snow Spear move with a rarity of 10.

That mythical snow spear was ten meters in diameter.

Rapunzel fires a snow spear at Togekiss.

There was a bang.

The ground of the venue was once again covered with a large area of ​​frost. Looking at Togekiss, he was twice as weak to ice, but he lost half of his health to the Crown of the Lotus with just one hit.

Seeing that things were not going well, Zhulan immediately asked Pokkiss to use Super Speed ​​to dodge.

But Pokkis flew out of the range of gravity, and two big holes opened up in the void.

The energy attack hit Pokkiss with a loud bang.

Rape Crown used the Future Cognition Attack. He predicted Togekiss's position long before the battle began, and then bombarded Togekiss with the accumulated energy.

After the huge explosion gradually disappeared.

Everyone looked at Tokkiss again, and saw that there were mosquito-repellent eyes in Tokkiss's eyes, and he actually lost his ability to fight!
Even the referee found it hard to believe when he saw Pokkiss losing his ability to fight.

This is the Pokémon of the regional champion!

He was killed instantly with just these two moves!
How big is the difference in strength to cause such a result?
The other champions who were preparing for the competition in the players' lounge stared in disbelief when they saw this scene.

They could all see that the fighting power of the two sides was too different!

Dandi looked at the battle, his eyes lit up, and whispered: "As expected of the King of Galar, he defeated the opponent without even moving his feet."

Few people noticed that the Crown of Roses did not even move his feet from beginning to end.

This performance at least shows that the Lotus Crown King still has at least 90% of his strength hidden.

At the scene, Zhulan did not expect that Pokkiss would be defeated so easily.

She could only send out her second Pokémon - Grunt.

This is a ghost + dark type Pokémon.

The ghost skills of the Flower Rock Monster can double the restraint of the Flower Crown King. It is indeed as Zhulan thought, using the attribute advantage can make up for a lot of combat power gaps.

Faced with the fierce attack of the Rock Flower Monster, no matter how strong the Lotus Crown King was, it was difficult to resist. The Lotus Crown King was also very considerate and used the Super Absorption move to recover from his injuries.

But the Blizzard Horse under the Ragnarok King still successfully defeated the Flower Rock Monster without moving its hooves.

Ranji lost two Pokémon, and looking at Budcrown, it did consume a lot of physical strength, but it was still a long way from being defeated.

Zhulan sent out her strongest trump card, Land Shark.

This Garchomp is at level 92, and surprisingly, he also masters a mythical move - Dragon Dive.

After her debut, Takeran also made Garchomp mega evolve.

The racial value of 600 immediately increased to 700 points, even exceeding that of the Bud Crown King by 20 points!
This is Zhulan’s last trump card.

As soon as it appeared, Garchomp created a sandstorm, which could potentially conceal its whereabouts while dealing with other Pokémon.

But for the extremely powerful psychic King, she can easily use her super powers to lock onto Tyrannosaurus.

When he noticed that Garchomp was using Dig, Razorback immediately jumped backwards on Blizzard to dodge.

After closing the distance with Garchomp, he used the crown-level tile-splitting move against the Crown of Flowers.

With the super enhancement of skills such as Sword Dance, Garchomp's physical attack level has been greatly improved.

The sickle-like arms of the Land Shark cut the earth into countless small cubes at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye!
The strength of the champion ace was fully revealed!
Garchomp chased after Crown of Flower and launched a fierce attack.

The Rape Crown condensed a Snow Spear, used it as a gun, and started a battle of moves with Garchomp.

Dangdang~
The two sides engaged in close combat, and a powerful wave of energy erupted.

This was the first time that Budcrown was suppressed by other Pokémon, but it was just suppression.

With the help of the title of Mercy, the Rape Crown King is able to recover from his injuries with the highest efficiency.

When Garchomp used the mythical Dragon Dive, Crown of Flowers condensed the most powerful Snow Spear and threw it at Garchomp.

The two moves collided, and Land Shark unfortunately fell into a disadvantage in the battle of moves.

Although they are all mythical moves, the difference in the rarity of the moves will naturally result in different powers.

After a 5-minute battle, Crown of Buds successfully defeated Ran's Garchomp.

Bai Chen completed a series of three with ease.

Looking at the Lotus Crown King again, he was seriously injured, but as the Lotus Crown King used healing moves, he once again completely recovered from his injuries.

That means more than half of your physical strength has been consumed.

To be honest, Zhulan's Garchomp's instantaneous burst power is even higher than Bai Chen's first battle with the Crown of Flowers.

Although Bai Chen can use his infinite energy to condense super-large wave missiles to attack the Lotus Crown King, the Lotus Crown King is not a fool. Naturally, he will not let Bai Chen condense super-powerful wave missiles so easily. He will often try to interrupt Bai Chen's concentration of moves.

If Zhulan's Garchomp can reach level 100, and can obtain a mythical attack move of rarity 7 or above, and it must be an attribute restraining move.

Then it would be possible to use more powerful damage outside of the Lotus Crown's kingdom and defeat the Lotus Crown before it has time to recover.

But unfortunately, there is still a long way to go between Ran and Garchomp.

After the battle, Bai Chen put on the mask again and put the Rape Crown King back into the ball.

Amid the cheers of the crowd, Bai Chen bowed politely and left the stage.

This was a complete crushing match.

Bai Chen successfully advanced to the semi-finals.

When Bai Chen arrived at the VIP room, Liliae and others also offered their congratulations.

Bai Chen came to the floor-to-ceiling window to watch the battle below.

After Bai Chen and Zhu Lan were eliminated, the second battle was between Daigo and Adek.

Bai Chen checked the situation of both sides' ace Pokémon.

The Pokémon of Daigo and Adek are both not much different from Kaluni's ace. Their Pokémon move proficiency is generally at the Grandmaster level, and about five or six skills can reach the Crown level.

However, the proficiency of some skills can immediately reach the mythical level.

With another year of dedicated practice, you can reach the mythical level.

The battle between the two was different from the one-sided battle between Bai Chen and Zhu Lan. The two of them fought back and forth. After the six Pokémon fought for forty minutes, Daigo won in the end.

The morning's battle was over.

After an hour or two of break, the afternoon Pokémon battle began.

The third game is between Yeci and Kaluni.

As the top champion of the Padia region, Yesi's Pokémon is very powerful.

What surprised Bai Chen was Ye Ci's trump card, a servant sword general.

General Servant Sword is the evolved form of Commander Slash, and his racial value reaches 550 points.

The legs and shoulders of the servant sword general are red, and the abdomen is gray, as if he is wearing a suit of armor. His waist seemed to be hung with a black and white belt, with two sharp blades extending outward on the left and right. His hands are yellow with ornamental barbs.

The Servant Sword General possesses two mythical moves - Taijing Burst and Servant Sword Moves.

The effect of the Taijing burst move is that when it is crystallized, it will release an energy attack with Taijing attributes. Compare your own attack and special attack, and use the one with the higher value to deal damage to the opponent.

The attribute of Taijing of this Pudao General is flying. When General Pudao transformed into Taijing to fly, an unexpected scene happened. General Pudao directly borrowed Taijing's flying ability and took off on the spot!

Anyone who can't fly these days can be considered unique.

The battle lasted about half an hour.

Kaluni's Gardevoir was naturally no match for the Servant Blade Shogun who had a mythical move, and was unfortunately defeated in the end.

In this way, three seats in the top four were determined, Bai Chen, Daigo and Yeji all advanced.

Now all that remains is the final battle.

Bai Chen looked at Dan Emperor and A'du who appeared.

In the first battle, Dandi sent out his ace Charizard.

Finally seeing the Charizard, Bai Chen showed a surprised expression on his face.

"Is this a rule-level move?"

Dandi's ace Charizard unexpectedly possesses a rule-level move - true flame jet.

The rarity of this jet of fire reaches level 7.

At the same time, the rule-level affix obtained by this move directly increases the rarity of the flamethrower move by two levels, and has a rule-level effect that ignores characteristics and rules, and will definitely put the enemy into a burning state.

However, when Bai Chen looked at the column for Charizard's title, he did not see the title.

"Charizard doesn't have a title, could it be the title of Dan Emperor?"

When Bai Chen took a look, he really saw something incredible.

Bai Chen muttered in his heart: "Isn't this title a bit too impressive?"

Bai Chen's eyes were fixed on the title called [Strongest Champion].
