Divine Plan? But I'm a Pokémon trainer.

Chapter 388 Specialized Techniques
Daigo and Mastedt chatted for a while before realizing that they had been communicating across different channels.

Unexpectedly, after retiring, this strongest champion in the Galar region became addicted to video games...

Just as the old and new champions are always returning to the same channel, Link in the Battle Tower has already won 21 consecutive matches.

In real-world battles, unlike in the dream world where you can maintain peak condition at all times, both physical and mental strength will rapidly decline during consecutive battles.

Even though we've maintained low energy consumption so far (without using Z-type or Tai-crystal) and kept changing our lineup, both the players and the Pokémon are starting to get tired after such intense battles.

He had only intended it as entertainment, so he didn't force himself and decisively paused Lien Chan's progress.

"I didn't expect that Fleur, one of the Hoenn Elite Four, has improved even more than Lunato. Ghost-type Pokémon are indeed adept at all sorts of tricks... Molting Substitute, using Trick to trade Will-O-Wisp for the opponent's item—there are just too many master-skill Pokémon."

"Bonnie~"

Egui Peng deeply agreed, but it was a pity that it couldn't participate this time.

Link shrugged. There would be an opportunity in three days.

Before that, in order to adapt to the development of the times and the progress of other trainers, he felt that he should also seriously consider how he, as a trainer, should take the next step.

After transmigrating to this world, he naturally became a trainer, and has encountered all kinds of opponents along the way.

Whether it's focusing on strength, technique, bondage, or tactics, each trainer basically has their own philosophy.

In theory, the concept of "bond flow," or infinite love, represents the highest potential.

By providing their own physical strength and attacking in conjunction with the spirits, they continuously push their own limits in battle, thereby breaking the shackles of their race and even creating miracles in desperate situations.

Link had no idea how to deal with this, since he hadn't really encountered any desperate situations in battles so far... not counting battles like the Dream Sky series.

His skillful management allowed his Pokémon to always appear at the right time, thus achieving the greatest results with the least loss.

It might have been a bit of a struggle at first, but as intelligence and perception improved, mistakes became much less frequent.

Nevertheless, since the opponents are often not to be underestimated, there are times when even the best calculations will backfire... such as being overpowered by the unreasonable force of the Bamboo Orchid's Earth Dragon.

However, if he were to change his style to the kind of tightrope walking that Ash does every day, it would really not suit his personality.

Link excels at a steady and methodical playstyle, focusing on reading the enemy's movements and rotating his units to gain an advantage before launching a relentless, aggressive attack.

However, his strategy of combining knowledge and reading before making a choice still seems very radical to others.

"As expected, I still don't like these idealistic fighting styles. It's better not to get into this situation in the first place than to be forced into a corner and then unleash your power."

The fire fox standing to the side couldn't help but sigh, but in reality, they often found themselves in this situation during the Dream Sky Battle.

Recently, while making Awakening Candy for other Pokémon on the ranch, it discovered that those Pokémon with relatively comfortable daily lives did not experience any change in strength even after consuming the Awakening Candy.

The plan to mass-produce powerful new Pokémon using Awakening Sugar has thus failed.

Based on the analysis of Fire Fox and Polygon, the true function of this item is likely simply to allow the spirits, whose spirits have undergone a transformation after experiencing life-or-death situations in the Dream Sky Battle, to further adapt their physical bodies in reality to and catch up with their spirits, or rather, their souls.

In other words, even if they did not experience such a near-limit battle in reality, their experience of continuous battles in their dreams has actually given them the benefit of using the "Repay" move mentioned by the red Pikachu to break through the racial barriers.

At least that's what the Fiery Fox and Polygon think...

"In any case, physical fitness and energy levels only account for one part of the battle; items, strategies, and skills are also needed."

“Just like Huayue’s ‘Melting Substitute’ and Furong’s ‘Will-o’-the-Wisp Trick,’ now that we’ve mastered and become familiar with many moves, it’s time to create our own techniques.” “Furong?”

Let me state upfront that it's impossible to turn the branch in the tail into a "substitute," and it's also impossible to sever the tail.

Fire Fox doesn't have the abundant resources like Six Nine-Tailed Fox... No, even if it did, it couldn't be without them.

"That's natural."

Link didn't intend to simply copy it; instead, he would tailor it to the characteristics of his own Pokémon: "Besides, you've already mastered many coordination techniques, and your mastery of 'psychic power' is already close to a unique 'skill'."

The fox puffed out its chest triumphantly. "That's right! I knew it all along!"

Therefore, its main purpose is to help other elves master their own unique skills.

Upon closer examination, the Pokémon in the team have already made considerable progress in this area.

Leaving aside the fire fox and the polygonal beast.

Blazing Roaring Tiger and Evil Creeper respectively wield "One-Hit Flow - Penetration Scroll" and "Combo Flow - Vortex Scroll".

After Munchlax reaches Gigantamax, its physical abilities become extraordinary, and the power of Darktail is also greatly enhanced by the extra soul it had with Mauville, even reaching a weakened version of Fishlove.

Dragonite's "Dragon Dive" has become increasingly skillful, and its aura-formed armor is both offensive and defensive, making it exceptionally convenient.

As for Arcanine, its ability to accelerate at "super speed" without suffering any recoil is itself a unique skill...

"As the saying goes, 'Don't bite off more than you can chew.' So-called special skills require long-term practice. Therefore, I think each of you should choose a maximum of four skills to specialize in and develop."

Focusing your energy on a limited number of moves ensures both applicability and efficiency.

After a moment's thought, the fire foxes decided that, given their current level, it was best for them to specialize in only a few moves.

But which moves should you turn into your own "secret weapons"?

"F~Muf?"

As far as it is concerned, the versatile "telekinesis" is definitely one of them, the combination of "miracle eye" and "seal" is also very reliable, and "foresight" can provide the greatest opportunity.

So, should the last move be "Touch," "Ability Swap," or "Rain Dance"?

Or perhaps one could choose to "play a role" or "reverse the space"?
Thanks to its rich skill pool, Fire Fox has a surprisingly wide range of choices.

Link noticed that it hadn't even considered offensive moves. Had he somehow managed to raise a perfectly good special attacker in the wrong way?
"Boni?"

Why are we even talking about "praying for rain" now?
"Ahem, for you, 'Rainbow' is something you just need to be proficient at. Its main purpose is to provide weather information for your teammates or to use 'Weather Ball' in fire-type mirror matches."

Link emphasized this immediately, lest the Fiery Fox really grow up to be crooked.

“As our opponents become stronger, ‘Ability Swap’ will be less effective in battles,” Link pondered.

Just as he was preparing to analyze Fire Fox's learning one by one.

The multifaceted beast suddenly suggested, "How about we focus all our efforts on researching 'Mind Swap'?"
