Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 324 How can Xiao Guang be so strong?!
"Pheromosa... an Ultra Beast?"

Serena's pretty face was very solemn as she carefully examined the magnificent Pokémon she had never seen before.

If I remember correctly, it should be the Ultra Beasts series that were recently added to the Pokédex?
Serena was naturally seeing Ultra Beasts for the first time, but as a brand new Pokémon, she had seen reports about them and even went to watch videos introducing Ultra Beasts.

It's worth mentioning that the video was filmed by Kukui.

"That's right, Pheromosa's codename is UB02: Beauty. Be careful, Serena, my Pheromosa is very strong."

Prandina wore a demure and beautiful smile, and it was clear that she really liked her pheromone mantis.

"Mello~"

Pheromosa stood with one hand on her hip, her posture extremely arrogant.

Serena thought for a moment, then took out her Pokédex and aimed it at Pheromosa.

'Ding~ Pheromosa, Bug/Fighting type, a beautiful Pokémon'

One of the Ultra Beasts, perhaps because it finds everything in this world filthy, and therefore refuses to touch it with its bare hands.

If I remember correctly, the attribute is indeed Bug + Fighting.

Serena had actually memorized the attributes of those Ultra Beasts, but she was still a little worried that she had remembered them wrong.

If it's a bug + melee combination, it's four times weaker to flying.

"Qixi Bluebird! Please!"

Serena promptly threw out her first Poké Ball.

With a melodious cry, the Tanabata bird spread its cotton wings and floated in front of Serena.

It is the Altaria, which has both dragon and flying attributes.

"Trying to use the Flying type to counter Pheromosa is a bit of wishful thinking."

Upon seeing this, Mammon couldn't help but chuckle.

"Isn't this wrong?"

Karuno, who was standing right next to Mammon, was taken aback by what she heard.

Four times weak to flying, such a significant weakness is practically written all over my face. Quickly use the flying attribute to counter me.

So using Altaria, which has the Flying attribute, to battle Pheromosa is actually perfectly fine, right?
“That’s right, but how should I put it?” Mammon considered his words carefully.

"As the Kalos Champion, Ms. Diantha, you should also know very well that Pokémon battles are not simply decided by type advantage."

"Pheromosa is a high-speed, high-attack type of Ultra Beast. In fact, Altaria, or most Flying-type Pokémon, are not very suitable to battle against Pheromosa."

Mammon explained it this way.

That's right, purely in terms of type, Pheromosa is indeed severely four times weak to Flying-types.

But in reality, battles aren't that simple. Mammon himself has a shiny Pheromosa, so he knows Pheromosa's strengths and weaknesses all too well.

Pheromosa's strengths lie in its astonishing speed and agility, as well as its incredibly powerful physical and special attacks.

Pheromosa is a typical example of an extremely high-speed offensive Pokémon.

Actually, four times weaker flight?

But in reality, with Pheromosa's defense as fragile as paper, let alone Flying-type moves, even a Flamethrower that is twice as effective against Pheromosa at the same level would be too much for it to handle.

Even if it's a normal attack, as long as it hits Pheromosa, it will be a huge blow to Pheromosa.

Because the pheromone is such a 'fragile' glass cannon.

And the Altaria... how can it possibly compete with the Pheromosa?
Flying-type moves are indeed very effective against Pheromosa; a single hit could likely render Pheromosa unable to battle.

But the key is that you have to be able to hit it.

Moreover, there is another very important point: given Altaria's attack strength, how can it possibly fight against Pheromosa?

“Mr. Mammon, what you’re describing are just ideal outcomes.”

Karunai frowned slightly; she certainly understood what Mammon meant.

But could it be that Altaria couldn't hit Pheromosa even once before the battle ended?

This is far too idealistic, Karuno remained skeptical.

“We’ll see,” Mammon replied with a smile.

Karuno remained silent, looking towards the arena. As the Carlos champion, her stance was naturally biased towards Serena.

She didn't believe that a local prodigy would lose to a Rockets executive.

The battle begins.

Serena sent Altaria to attack first, since it had an absolute advantage in type. Pheromosa's Fighting and Bug types were not very effective against Altaria, so why should it be afraid?
Altaria used Hurricane first, which is a very strong move among Flying-type special attacks.

A powerful storm swept down.

"snowstorm!"

However, Prantina directly sent Pheromosa to confront them head-on.

The Pheromosa's face revealed a human-like chilling malice and disdain. It swung its right foot heavily, unleashing an even more violent blizzard.

It collided heavily with the storm in mid-air, and then, under Serena's shocked face.

Pheromosa's blizzard powerfully overwhelmed the storm and continued its relentless assault on Altaria.

How can he be so strong?!

"Twilight Bluebird! Get out of the way!" Serena shouted in alarm.

The bluebird immediately flapped its wings to try to dodge, but it was too hasty, and there wasn't enough time.

The blizzard engulfed the Altaria, with the biting frost and cold winds relentlessly assaulting its body.

Everyone says Pheromosa is 4x weaker to Flying, but Altaria is actually 4x weaker to Ice too!
Plop!

A blizzard swept past, and the Altaria, its body covered in frost, fell helplessly, crashing heavily to the ground.

Surprisingly, the Altaria has not yet lost its ability to fight.

However, due to the severe impact of the blizzard, the Altaria no longer has the strength to even get up and is now like a candle flickering in the wind.

"The grid."

Plantina gave the order again. Pheromosa raised its leg high once more, and a golden electric net shot out, landing on Altaria.

The power grid of the electrical system.

The electric current roared and eroded the Tanabata, causing it to emit a painful low cry.

As the power grid burst, the Qixi Bluebird began to spin in circles.

At the same time, after defeating Altaria, a faint light shimmered on Pheromosa's body.

The Beast Boost ability has been activated, increasing Pheromosa's speed!

"Aladdin is unable to fight, Pheromosa wins."

Mammon announced the outcome of the battle.

How can this be?

Karuno, who was watching the battle, was stunned!
Serena, who was also in a daze, stared at the incapacitated Altaria for a long time, unable to calm down.

They were defeated so quickly?

It was only two moves, and it was a counter-pick chosen by myself to my opponent.

However, being Serena after all, she bit her lip and tried her best to calm down before taking out a Poké Ball and recalling Altaria.

"The attack is extremely powerful."

Serena composed herself and looked at the proudly standing Pheromosa mantis opposite her.

There was nothing she could do; the battle had just taken place far too quickly, and that was all the information she could gather.

Indeed, Altaria isn't a Pokémon with particularly strong offensive capabilities, but this is the main Altaria she's training, and its offensive power is still quite good.

However, the opponent's Blizzard so quickly overwhelmed the Blizzard of its own type, and directly caused Altaria to crash and become unable to take care of itself.

It's clear that this pheromone's attack power is incredibly high!

Serena quickly regained her composure. This was the first time she had been so overwhelmingly defeated by a main force, but it was alright.

This is an all-out battle, so she's not entirely without a chance.

"Super Meowth!"

Serena threw out her second Pokémon.

A rather aloof and adorable female Bichon Frise, with predominantly white fur and standing on two legs, landed in front of Serena.

It is a pure Psychic-type Meowth.

"Super Meowth, High Five Surprise Attack!"

Serena gave the order decisively.

A strange glint flashed in Meowth's eyes as it charged toward Pheromosa at high speed.

A preemptive high-five attack!
"Quick defense!" But Prantina was not without a response.

Meowth dashed at lightning speed to Pheromosa, leaped up, and slapped Pheromosa with its claw.

But Pheromosa immediately raised her right arm and shielded herself.

boom!
The high-five attack was successfully blocked by a quick defense!

The Fighting style's fast defense is specifically designed to block various preemptive attacks from the opponent.

Serena frowned.

"Hell Thrust!" Plantina immediately gave the order again.

Pheromosa's face revealed a malicious expression, its left arm glowing with black light as it viciously stabbed at Meowth.

Dark-type Hell Thrust!
"Get out of the way!"

The deep blue superpowers in Meowth's eyes lit up, and it used them to control its body to quickly dodge the Hell Thrust attack by shifting to the left.

But is it really possible to avoid it?
Pheromosa missed its attack and immediately chased after Meowth, its elegant and slender body moving like a whirlwind.

In the blink of an eye, it rushed to the position behind Meowth.

"!!!"

The terrifying speed made Serena's pupils shrink.

Pheromosa, its right arm wreathed in black light, stabbed fiercely into Meowth's back, causing Meowth to let out a low, agonizing groan.

His entire body shot backward like a cannonball, crashing heavily to the ground.

The Dark-type Hellfire Slash deals significant damage to the Psychic-type Meowth.

"Pounce!" And Prantina gave her no chance at all, immediately giving chase.

Pheromosa pounced on Meowth, who was still standing up.

A Bug-type attack!
boom!
With another loud bang, Pheromosa leaped back a step, gracefully and arrogantly smoothing her magnificent long hair, relaxed and carefree.

At the bottom of a pit, Meowth had already fainted.

Pheromosa's Hell Thrust and Pounce are too much for its physique to withstand.

"Mega Meowth is unable to battle, Pheromosa wins."

Mammon announced the outcome of the battle once again.

Serena silently recalled her Psychic Boom, looked down at the Poké Ball in her hand, and couldn't help but purse her lips tightly.

They suffered two consecutive defeats, and... they were almost completely unable to put up any resistance.

How could this happen...?

Serena looked at Pheromone and Plantina opposite her, but she was already very strong.

Was the opponent too strong? But Xiao Guang is the same age as me.

How can she be so strong?

The girl couldn't understand it.
