Elf: This owner is so sunny.

Chapter 463 Giovanni's Ace, Beedrill!
"Master Baiyu! You were just trying to retaliate, weren't you?"

"Your fighting style has long been etched in my mind. Even though we've never fought each other, I can still get a general idea of ​​a trainer's habits just by watching videos."

"No matter what kind of trainer they are, when they are at a disadvantage, they will unconsciously increase their offensive, which is your biggest weakness."

Sakaki put one hand in his pocket, tilted his head back, and his eyes were calm as still water, completely unaffected by the match.

Having dealt with far too many things, Giovanni has a strong heart and doesn't reveal his thoughts on his face; this is an experience gained from years of competition.

"Master Sakaki, it seems you've seen right through me." Bai Yu smiled slightly, not taking Sakaki's words to heart.

Everyone has little habits and shortcomings.

This is normal.

"Gym Leader Shiraha, I noticed you when you handled the crisis in Martha City. Later, when you and that crazy Dragon Master attacked my Team Rocket base in Celadon City."

"I knew you'd become a top Pokémon Trainer someday."

"As I see it, you have indeed surpassed those champions. But the Pokémon world is vast, and there are many people who don't pursue those so-called titles."

"One of them was me."

Sakaki said this with a rather pretentious air, but what he said was indeed the truth. With his strength, he could have become the Kanto League champion long ago.

But he didn't put it into practice. Instead, he stayed in Viridian City. What he was pursuing was not just a league championship, but the whole world.

“Gym Leader Sakaki, judging from the current situation…”

"I still have a chance to win!"

"Nut dumbbells! Spinning tops!"

Bai Yu shouted at the nut dumbbell.

Nuts Dumbbell's condition has declined significantly, but it hasn't reached the point where he can't continue fighting.

With a soft hum, the Nut Dumbbell began to swing rapidly, its two vines whipping around as it spun at high speed, releasing a metallic sheen with each movement.

The normally slow-moving nut dumbbells displayed an extraordinary speed at this moment.

The slower the speed of a steel-based spinning top ball, the stronger its power.

"Heavy impact!" Sakaki gave the order quickly without hesitation.

Metallic light emanated from Tyranitar's body as it charged forward with powerful leg thrusts. Dodging the Gyro Ball was unrealistic, given its wide coverage area.

"Get away."

The moment Nut Dumbbell heard the command, it shifted its body to another direction, and the vines swinging from its body struck Tyranitar, but were blocked by the accumulated metallic gleam.

“Tyranitar!” Giovanni frowned.

Tyranitar sensed the direction of the Nut Dumbbell and suddenly stopped.

"Now! Whip him hard!"

The nut dumbbell, having slowed its body, emitted a green light that clung to the vines and slammed heavily towards Tyranitar. Tyranitar had just stopped and had no time to react, instinctively raising its hands to shield its face.

The blow landed directly on Tyranitar, knocking it off its feet.

"Keep going, keep attacking!"

Bai Yu's gaze fell on Tyranitar. Tyranitar was in poor condition, which was the perfect opportunity to attack. Ferrothorn was not as fast as Tyranitar, and if the opponent kept running, it would be difficult to deal with.

Take advantage of the gap in the swing and unleash a pouncing attack first; it might hit Tyranitar.

Nut Dumbbell unleashed an astonishing aura, its entire body charging forward.

"Dig a hole!"

Tyranitar slammed its claws into the ground, and its figure quickly disappeared from the field.

boom! !

The nut dumbbell missed its target, and dust rose up on the court once again.

This obscured the view of both trainers.

Nut Dumbbell scanned its surroundings, seemingly trying to pinpoint Tyranitar's exact location.

"Bangjira".

"Use Shadow Claws directly downwards!"

Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and a bulge appeared directly beneath the Nut Dumbbell, sending the entire Nut Dumbbell flying into the air. Tyranitar appeared, his fist surrounded by tan energy.

Despite the discomfort in her body, Nut Dumbbell swung her vines, which were emanating a strange, dark aura.

Bang! !

The Shadow Claw struck directly at Tyranitar's body.

The second stage of the digging attack also successfully hit the Nut Dumbbell.

Both sides continued to decline, and the nut dumbbell was also thrown away by the force of the digging.

"Sharp stone attack!"

Sakaki decisively gave chase.

Nuts Dumbbell is in poor condition, and Bangira isn't much better. Both are on the verge of collapse. In the next attack, whichever side gains the upper hand will end the match.

Tyranitar landed and slammed its fist into the ground, causing the earth to tremble violently. Sharp stones shot towards the direction of the Nut Dumbbell.

Rock-type Stone Attack!

"Gyro ball!"

In this situation, it's too late to hold on; this is the only option.

Before the nut dumbbell even landed, it suddenly began to spin, the spin was so large that the sharp rocks that surged up were shattered little by little, and the shattered rocks continued to move closer to Tyranitar.

Upon seeing this, Sakaki narrowed his eyes slightly.

Rumble~
In its spinning ball form, the Nut Dumbbell was incredibly fast, shattering even the sharp rocks in front of it. Tyranitar, who had just stood up, looked up and saw the Nut Dumbbell right in front of him.

Having just unleashed the sharp stone attack, there was no time to react.

His body was directly blasted away by the spinning top ball.

"Cannon light cannon!"

To ensure that Tyranitar is completely incapacitated.

Even if the Nut Dumbbell's special attack is weak, you still need to use the Cannon to finish it off.

"Hold on!"

Tyranitar managed to steady himself, raising his hands in front of him to create a protective barrier.

The barrier rippled, and the power of the cannon gradually weakened, eventually dissipating into a beam of light and disappearing into the air.

"Strong whipping!"

"Dig a hole!"

Almost simultaneously, both sides issued the commands.

Tyranitar roared, its hands poised to dig into the ground, when a vine lashed out, striking it squarely. The heavy blow interrupted Tyranitar's movements, sending it flying into the air, spinning before crashing heavily to the ground with a loud bang and a plume of smoke.

As the smoke cleared, Tyranitar lay peacefully on the sand, completely incapacitated.

"Tyranitar is unable to fight."

Apollo stepped forward to observe, and he never expected that, despite being the one with the advantage, it was Giovanni's Tyranitar who ultimately lost its ability to fight.

That nut dumbbell can do more than just throw water chestnuts and stealth rocks!

Its attacks are also fierce, fast when it needs to be fast, and astonishing in its defense when it needs to be slow.

Giovanni's face darkened. He took out a Poké Ball and recalled Tyranitar. He stared at Tyranitar's Poké Ball, then looked at Ferrothorn, before finally focusing his gaze on White Feather.

"Master Baiyu, it seems your strength far exceeds my expectations."

Despite being a defensive Pokémon, it displayed impressive offensive capabilities in battles and frequently utilized Gyro Ball to enhance its relatively poor speed.

The spinning ball has a wide coverage area. Even though it is slow, it can still launch attacks by relying on its wide attack range. It has to be said that Bai Yu has indeed exceeded Sakaki's expectations.

"Gym Leader Sakaki, your strength far exceeds my expectations." Bai Yu looked at Sakaki, whose strength had already surpassed the level of a champion.

It's important to know that Bai Yu only managed to enter that realm through hard work, while Sakaki probably entered that realm a long time ago, and so far, Sakaki has not used any of his special abilities.

Viridian Power can enhance a Pokémon's strength in battle.

This function is similar to a superpower. When Bai Yu fought with A-Du, he saw A-Du use a similar ability, and A-Du possesses two abilities.

It can quickly enhance the Dragon-type Pokémon's Dragon-riding Power, and the Everlasting Power can boost Pokémon's power.

As the first Pokémon that Bai Yu trained, Ferrothorn's strength is self-evident. Even though it hasn't experienced many battles, Bai Yu has always paid attention to its strength.

Even after defeating Tyranitar, Ferrothorn's condition was severely depleted, leaving it with little ability to continue fighting.

To push himself to this point, it has to be said, Sakaki is very strong.

He's much stronger than champions like Wataru and Daigo.

"Master Baiyu, your strength has far exceeded my expectations."

Giovanni maintained a calm demeanor; perhaps only the Red Devil, destined to defeat Team Rocket, could elicit an excited expression from him.

"Come back, Nut Dumbbell."

Bai Yu didn't say much and put the nut dumbbells back on the field.

He took out the sixth Poké Ball, while Giovanni already had his sixth Poké Ball in his hand.

Almost simultaneously, both of them threw out their Poké Balls.

Two flashes of white light appeared, and a Pokémon with dead fish eyes and standing on four legs landed in front of Bai Yu. Its dull eyes revealed a hint of ferocity. It was a Swampert, a Water/Ground type Pokémon.

Meanwhile, on Giovanni's side, a giant Beedrill hovered slowly in mid-air, its compound eyes filled with arrogance, and its sharp needles gleamed slightly in the sunlight.

Before the two could speak, the Stealth Rocks on the field bombarded the two Pokémon. Because Beedrill has the ability to fly, Spikes did not harm Beedrill and remained hidden on the ground.

As the smoke cleared, Beedrill and Swampert seemed largely unaffected by the cloaked rock, and Beedrill's stinger appeared to be covered in some dust.

"Did you manage to mitigate some of the damage from the stealth rock using the two needles?"

Bai Yu raised an eyebrow. The Beedrill's reaction speed was also surprisingly fast. Stealth Rock was a move that was almost instantaneous upon its appearance, but the Beedrill had already reacted.

"Master Shiraha, your Swampert is no pushover either!" Giovanni glanced at Swampert.

Clearly, some dust had also appeared on Swampert's fist. In that instant, both of them shattered the invisible rocks in front of them, leaving only the invisible rocks behind them that they hadn't had time to clear away.

"As a Ground-type expert, how could he use a weak Beedrill?" Bai Yu looked at Beedrill again and couldn't help but tease, "It seems that Gym Leader Giovanni also had a trick up his sleeve."

"Weak? That's not necessarily true!" Sakaki remained calm.

"Then I'll take a look." Bai Yu raised an eyebrow.

"Move at high speed!"

Without hesitation, Giovanni gave the command. Beedrill is already very fast, but to deal the most insane damage, it can only be done by constantly increasing its speed and kiting Swampert to slowly deplete its stamina.

Of course, Giovanni's Beedrill is not weak in terms of attack!

"Ultrasonic!" Bai Yu gave the order without hesitation.

The Swamp Monster opened its mouth, its eyes flashed slightly, and an invisible sound wave spread outwards.

Normal-type ultrasonic waves emit a special sound that can confuse the opponent.

Beedrill is much faster than Swampert. Unless Swampert enters Mega Evolution and its ability is triggered by rain, it is definitely slower than Beedrill.

"A very clever countermeasure."

Giovanni nodded silently, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Using ultrasound to restrict Beedrill's movement was indeed a very clever offensive tactic.

only……

"Beedrill, speed up and unleash a combo attack."

"Om~"

The bee suddenly plummeted downwards, and the buzzing sound in its ears was blocked by the rushing air before it could fully reach them. The rapid descent masked the discomfort in its ears.

And in an instant, it used a Bug-type combo.

"turbid current!"

Bai Yu couldn't help but marvel at Beedrill's speed and admire Giovanni's quick reaction, as he even used airflow to block the ultrasonic wave for a moment.

As long as the bee is not affected by ultrasound, its previous high-speed movement will come in handy.

A powerful surge of foul water rose up beneath Swampert, lifting it up completely. Swampert then pressed itself down, and the rushing water dispersed in all directions, submerging its entire body into the water.

Seeing this, Beedrill also stopped its attack.

Since they were on a small island with no boundaries, the water flow was short-lived and quickly dissipated in all directions. Bai Yu understood this principle, and so did Sakaki.

"Pounce! Unleash a water-burst attack!"

Before the murky water had even dissipated, Swampert leaped out of the water, its body imbued with water-based energy, and launched itself out like a cannonball.

"Get out of the way!!" Sakaki didn't hesitate at all.

Beedrill flapped its wings rapidly, its entire body moving at high speed, dodging Swampert's pounce.

"shoot down!"

In mid-air, Swampert, surrounded by water, suddenly conjured a rock, held it in its hand, and flung it towards Beedrill.

"Yan Hui!"

The Beedrill emitted a white light from its wings and quickly rushed towards the rock.

hum! !

The rock collided with Beedrill's U-turn, and almost instantly, U-turn sliced ​​the rock in two and then launched it towards Swampert in mid-air.

Swampert was directly hit by the Swallow Return, and its entire body was sent flying towards the ground. Swampert disappeared into the last remaining turbid stream, which alleviated the damage from the fall.
