Elf: This owner is so sunny.

"Roar!!"

Faced with Nidoking's provocation, the Fiery Roaring Tiger was not willing to be outdone and roared forward.

Invisible pressure enveloped Nidoking's body, and with a flash of red light, its physical attack dropped by one level.

"The first player is the Blazing Roaring Tiger?"

Sakaki stared at the Blaziken in front of him, one of the Alola region's starter Pokémon, a very practical Pokémon whose ability Intimidate frequently appeared on the playing field.

Some people even mentioned that Bai Yu made full use of the intimidation feature!
'Nidoking, Poison + Ground type, appears in Kanto, Johto and other areas.'

Traits: Poison Sting
Moves: Super Horn Attack, Glare, Poison Needle, Peck, Gather, Random Attack, Poison Spike, Double Kick, Horn Bump, Help, Poison, Flattery, Power of the Earth, Earthquake, Mud Wave, Poison Attack, Tile Break, 100,000 Volts, Surf, Flame Jet...

Introduction: Its characteristics are its stone-hard skin and long horns. Be careful as the horns are poisonous.

Nidoking has learned many and varied moves, but if Nidoking had not learned so many skills, he would not be called Nidoking. Nidoking is known for its wide attack range.

"As expected of the boss, Nidoking. He is really strong!"

This is also one of the few matches where Apollo can see Sakaki fight with all his strength.

Sakaki stopped participating in regular games long before he inherited Team Rocket. In other words, he no longer took the game seriously. Even though he is known as Sakaki of the Earth, that is only the tip of the iceberg.

“But this one is also not simple.”

Apollo looked at Baiyu's flaming roaring tiger and the corner of his mouth twitched.

Don’t think that the Rockets didn’t go online. The Rockets were also watching this much-talked-about Masters Tournament.

I have to say that Baiyu's level is quite high, especially in the use of Blazing Tiger, which is perfect. Almost every time he can successfully replace Pokémon while reducing the opponent's physical attack.

He has a perfect grasp of the timing of switching pets. If this person is not the gym leader, Apollo would suspect that he is some other senior cadre trained by Sakaki.

"But I have the advantage in attributes."

Sakaki's fighting style doesn't care about the advantages and disadvantages in attributes, but he won't waste Bai Wugu's advantage, not to mention that that is Nidoking he trained himself.

Could it be that it is weaker than the Fiery Roaring Tiger that Bai Yu trained?

Although he had never fought against Blazing Roaring Tiger, it was a fact that he had encountered more fire-type Pokémon than Bai Yu.

He has been the Gym Leader of Tokiwa Gym for all these years and it's not just for nothing.

"Nidoking, earthquake."

It is better to strike first than to gain the advantage. In many cases, the earthquake only forces the opponent to move, rather than attack.

"High-five surprise attack!" Bai Yu used his tried-and-tested trick again.

Nidoking suddenly stepped towards the ground, and the earth shook for a moment, forming a series of earthquake waves that attacked towards the direction of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

Earthquakes on the ground.

As soon as the earthquake wave came out, the Fiery Roaring Tiger moved at an extremely fast speed. Facing the incoming earthquake wave, it jumped lightly and successfully avoided it. In the air, a black and red figure showed a cunning and strange smile.

Very good speed!

Sakaki looked up at the sky calmly. He had fought with the Alliance so many times. He had dealt with the former Four Heavenly Kings of Kanto several times.

The speed of Blazing Tiger is indeed amazing, much faster than ordinary Pokémon. This is also based on the speed increase brought by the high-five surprise attack, and of course there is also the bonus of White Feather cultivation.

"ultrasound!"

Nidoking stood in place, opened his mouth, and a strong wave was released in an instant. Countless strange sounds in the air instantly interfered with the movements of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

The Nidoking reacted quickly. Almost at the moment Sakaki gave the order, it opened its mouth and emitted sound waves. Before the sound waves could fully spread out, the Fiery Roaring Tiger had already moved.

No matter how high the priority is or how fast it is, it is impossible for it to appear in front of Nidoking in an instant. As long as Nidoking makes a sound, it is enough to interfere with the movements of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

Sure enough, it was so close that the Blazing Roaring Tiger had already made the action of slapping, but at that moment, the sound reached its ears, and the sharp sound caused the Blazing Roaring Tiger to pause briefly.

However, the Blazing Roaring Tiger still forced a slap in the face. Nidoking was hit by the slap and took two steps back. His mouth suddenly closed and he covered his face with his hands. The anger on his face reached its peak at that moment.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger was also affected by the ultrasound, and walked unsteadily and tremblingly.

"Random attack!"

Nidoking took the lead and stepped forward, grabbing the arm of the Flaming Roaring Tiger, and suddenly punched the Flaming Roaring Tiger's abdomen with his right hand, hitting the Flaming Roaring Tiger's abdomen continuously with punches.

Bang bang bang! !

After continuous attacks, the Fiery Roaring Tiger, whose mind was not very clear at first, was suddenly awakened by the pain. The severe pain caused its face to twist instantly and it let out bursts of painful wails.

With the last punch, Nidoking slammed into the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

The entire body of the Fiery Roaring Tiger was blown away and hit the big tree behind it. There was a lot of sand on the field, and it flew backwards, raising a cloud of sand that covered the body of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

"Charged flame attack."

In the smoke and dust, a ball of fire covered the entire body of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

The figure sprinted forward quickly, and his movements were not affected by the previous attack at all.

A fire-type energy-charged flame attack.

"earthquake!"

Sakaki snapped his fingers and said calmly.

Nidoking suddenly raised his foot and stepped down, and the ground shook for a moment.

Ground-type earthquakes are not likely to hit the target under normal circumstances, but if the opponent uses moves such as Charged Flame Attack and Flash Flame Charge, there is a high probability that they can hit the target.

The opponent will not have time to react and avoid the damage of the earthquake. If they do, it will only reduce the power of moves such as Charged Flame Strike, giving the opponent more time to respond.

Bai Yu frowned. Sakaki had a lot of experience in combat, much more than Dantei, Sirona and others. It was obvious that this was a truth that only a trainer who had experienced hundreds or even thousands of battles could understand.

No wonder Dan Emperor always said that he would often suffer losses when fighting against his master.

Older gingers are more spicy!
"Hold on."

Bai Yu had no intention of dodging.

Similarly, the Blazing Roaring Tiger on the field had no intention of dodging.

It charged forward forcefully, its movements continuing to accelerate. The waves generated by the earthquake continuously attacked the Blazing Roaring Tiger, but they did not stop the Blazing Roaring Tiger's desire to charge at this moment.

"This guy……"

Sakaki's face was solemn. He could actually make Pokémon do this. This guy's determination was far stronger than he expected, and the situation would change because of his actions.

Bang! !

The next second, the scorching flames hit Nidoking. Nidoking was repelled by this force, and a hideous look appeared on his face.

Before it could recover, the next second, a pair of hot fists came up and continuously bombarded Nidoking's body. At this moment, the Fiery Roaring Tiger wanted to avenge the beating he had just received.

Nidoking had no time to defend against the continuous attacks, and his body was beaten back step by step.

The scorching flames, attached to the fists, continuously bombarded Nidoking's abdomen. Under the continuous attacks, flames suddenly attached to the abdomen. In this situation, Nidoking fell into a state of burning!
"This guy's attack..."

Sakaki also didn't expect that the Blazing Roaring Tiger could display a fighting style that had never appeared before. It attacked forward without restraint, like a mad tiger, wantonly biting the prey in front of it.

Perhaps it was because of the random attack just now that the flaming roaring tiger's self-esteem was enraged.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger had never suffered such humiliation. Normally, it was the Blazing Roaring Tiger that played with its opponents, so there was no reason for it to be played with by its opponents!

boom! !

A heavy punch hit Nidoking, who was knocked back several meters. He covered his abdomen with both hands and curled up into a ball.

After continuous attacks, a thick smoke rose on the field, which not only covered Nidoking's body, but also the body of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

It was not very clear, but Bai Yu saw it very clearly at the last moment of the attack that the place where the retreating air wave finally stopped was where Nidoking was.

"Flash Charge!"

"Roar!!!"

The Blazing Roaring Tiger roared, and the astonishing roar almost instantly dispelled the air waves in front of it. The endless flames on the flaming belt instantly covered its entire body.

The crimson flames continued to rise, reaching the highest point, rushing forward with endless flames and infinite rage, determined to completely tear Nidoking in front of him into pieces.

Fire-type Flash Charge.

"Dig a hole!" Sakaki frowned.

The attacks came one after another, and that guy didn't need to rest at all, or rather... at this moment the Blazing Roaring Tiger didn't even want to rest.

This Flash Charge must be avoided. Nidoking is in a very bad condition and is also in a burned state. If he is hit by the Flash Charge, he will most likely lose his combat ability.

Sakaki's judgment was very accurate. After receiving the order, Nidoking endured the discomfort in his body and dug his claws towards the ground. Soon a deep pit appeared on the field, and Nidoking had already sunk into the pit.

The flaming roaring tiger that rushed out also missed its target. The flames on its body had not yet dissipated. It looked around repeatedly and finally stopped its gaze on the bottomless pit.

"earthquake!"

Bai Yu glanced in the direction of the pit and said calmly.

This guy!
Almost instantly, Sakaki also reacted.

"Come out, Nidoking."

Just as the Fiery Roaring Tiger was about to stomp its feet, Nidoking from underground suddenly rushed out, right at the original pit, not too far away.

The khaki energy gathered in the fist and attacked the belly of the Fiery Roaring Tiger again.

Originally, it was a restraint and a move of its own type, which should have caused a lot of damage to the Fiery Roaring Tiger, but the burning effect, coupled with the first-level physical attack that was reduced previously.

The earthquake at this moment is no different from any ordinary move.

It is completely within the tolerance range of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

Moreover, the Fiery Roaring Tiger did not remove the flames from its body at all. It just pretended to stomp the ground and release an earthquake.

"Nidoking."

Almost at the moment he saw the flames had not dissipated, Sakaki realized something was wrong and took out the Poké Ball to try to retrieve Nidoking in mid-air.

Nidoking is in a very bad condition, but if it is placed in the Poké Ball to recuperate, it will still be useful later. We can't lose a main Pokémon at the very beginning.

In any case, Sakaki didn't want to see his Pokémon lose its combat ability so quickly.

"Fire Roaring Tiger!"

But Bai Yu will not give Sakaki this opportunity.

The scorching flames rose again, covering the entire body of the Scorching Tiger. Nidoking also sensed the danger. Just as he was about to leave and land on the ground, the Scorching Tiger grabbed his arm tightly.

"Nido!"

Nidoking's face suddenly changed, and he kept punching the arm that the Fiery Roaring Tiger had grabbed. The punches could only disperse the flames. When he hit again, the flames condensed again and covered the Fiery Roaring Tiger's body.

The next second, the two Pokémon fell rapidly, speeding up little by little. The flames on the Blazing Tiger's body continued to intensify, and the temperature continued to rise.

boom! !

Boom! !

The Blazing Roaring Tiger also placed Nidoking underneath as a cushion, and Nidoking's body slammed into the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the Fiery Roaring Tiger also crashed into Nidoking, bombarding him twice in a row, each one more powerful than the last, and the flames almost covered Nidoking's entire body.

"..." Sakaki's face darkened and he looked in the direction of Nidoking.

A thick smoke rose on the field. Whether it was Apollo, Sakaki, or Baiyu, they all knew what condition Nidoking was in at that moment.

As the smoke and dust cleared, the Blazing Roaring Tiger was able to barely move away from Nidoking, only to see that Nidoking was completely sunken in, his body severely injured, his eyes tightly closed, and he had no ability to continue fighting.

"Nidoking has lost the ability to fight!"

Apollo was uncertain, but still announced the final result.

At the beginning, it was obviously his boss who had the upper hand, but why could the Fiery Roaring Tiger display abilities beyond the comprehension of ordinary people?

"It seems that Gym Master Sakaki is unlucky. His continuous fire punches have caused Nidoking to fall into a state of burning. The hole he dug at that moment was not powerful enough." Bai Yu said with some regret.

Indeed, if it weren't for the burning state just now, Nidoking would not have lost his combat ability so quickly.

Even if Nidoking could still force himself to stand up at this moment, it would be meaningless.

The burns in the body will completely drain Nidoking's last bit of strength.

"Not bad training. You have no special abilities, but you can train Pokémon to this level. Master Baiyu, it seems that I underestimated you."

Sakaki looked calmly at the sunken Nidoking, took out the Poké Ball and took Nidoking back.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the flaming fist at that moment was clearly a gamble on the probability of burning. With continuous attacks, regardless of whether the burn was triggered or not, the disadvantaged party would become Sakaki.

Bai Yu can also choose to exit after attacking by uttering harsh words.

He often uses this method to attack! (End of this chapter)
