You are not allowed to be a Pokémon Trainer!

Chapter 125: Do you even understand the value of [Titan's Resolve]?
At this moment, the discussion in the live stream chat became increasingly heated.

【Tirey Meow, what are you doing? Are you cosplaying Spider-Man?】

[666, this is a perfectly good Pokémon battle that they've turned into a shooting game!]

[Shoot? I'm going to shoot Gardevoir too, hehe]

To be honest, both players' command was brilliant; it was much more entertaining than that purely reckless game we just played!

Indeed, other players should learn from this method of utilizing the terrain!

[But the Prisoner's Water is much stronger than I expected; it's actually able to overpower Ruby's Milotic.]

[It's just an illusion. Look at how many times the seed machine gun fired, how much damage did Milotic actually take?]

【.】

Although you can't see health bars in real-world Pokémon battles, a Pokémon's physical condition can reveal a lot.

As some of the comments said.

Despite Tiree's seemingly fierce attacks, the base damage of the Seed Machine Gun move is ultimately too low.

Even with double the restraint, there isn't much actual threat that Milotic, with its high health and durability, can pose.

Ruby was clearly aware of this as well.

Long before Tyrell started using the [Seed Machine Gun] to fire, he had Milotic use the [Water Ring]—

A water-attribute transformation move that creates a water curtain around the body, continuously restoring health and stamina!

That's how it's described in the game.

In reality, the water curtain formed by the water flow ring can also hinder and weaken ranged attacks with projectile trajectories to a certain extent.

Although the reduction is small, it is still very useful when dealing with multi-hit attacks like Seed Machine Gun, which have weak single-target damage.

As a result, the already negligible damage from the seed machine gun became even weaker under the restriction of the water flow ring.

Perhaps she was tired of shooting, or perhaps she realized the ineffectiveness of the seed machine gun, Tire Cat finally stopped firing.

It then landed back on the ground from "flight mode".

At that moment, Ruby seized the opportunity and his eyes narrowed.

Fight back, starting now!
"Mienshao, Ice Beam!"

Milotic, having rested and prepared, opened its mouth wide, and an even more powerful surge of ice energy quickly condensed into a ball of light.

Then, the ball of light exploded, and a beam of ice-blue energy containing a chilling aura shot through the air, heading straight for the spot where Tire Meow had landed!

"Tire Nyan, Thunder Fist!"

Energy flowed, and a surge of violent, turbulent golden lightning coalesced on Tire Cat's right paw.

The "Speed ​​Boost" from [Quick Attack Bond] and [Titan's Resolve] allows it to instantly switch from Grass to Electric type.

The flower stem shot out again, this time not towards the rock.

It was none other than Milotic itself!
whoosh-

The sound of Tire Cat taking off again filled the air.

Propelled by the combined force of the flower stem and the lightning fist, it broke through the icy, bone-chilling beam of ice and slammed its fully charged punch into Milotic's body.

The charred marks from the lightning punch instantly appeared on Milotic's body, extremely conspicuous.

The latter then let out a cry of pain far exceeding that of the previous ones.

"Fuwu!"

Ruby's expression suddenly changed. How could this be!
Since it's only twice as strong, the power of the Thunder Fist should theoretically be only slightly higher than the previous draft.

Why did Mimi react so strongly?

Did Tire Cat secretly boost her physical attack?

impossible!
Drafting, seed machine gun, lightning fist.

Since the start of the battle, every move Tire Cat has made has been under his nose, so there's been no time for her to improve! But even without improvement, the power of this lightning fist has increased so dramatically, as if she used [Sword Dance].
------

On the other side, Xia Chi's calm expression masked a turbulent inner world.

Did it actually work?

I hereby declare that [Seed Machine Gun] will henceforth be [Titan's Resolve]'s best friend!

That's right, Xia Chi certainly knew that the Seed Machine Gun posed little threat to Milotic under the [Water Ring].

But his purpose in having Tire Meow use this move was never to deal damage, but to trigger [Titan's Resolve]!

Each attack or hit will grant a 2% bonus to both physical and special attack!

With just one move, the Seed Machine Gun, you can instantly stack up all the seeds!

Although the game description says you can only shoot 2-5 times, this is the real world. My Tire Cat has plenty of energy, so what's wrong with shooting more?
Naturally, the few shots fired repeatedly didn't do much damage to Milotic, but it perfectly stacked up Titan's Resolve!

At this moment, Tire Cat's attack and defense have both been greatly improved!

In addition, the [Grass Attribute Bond] physical attack value that had been stacking since the start of the battle created this amazing lightning punch that surprised everyone!

Looking at Lubi, who was completely baffled on the other side of the battlefield, Xia Chi could only say...

Do you even understand the value of [Titan's Resolve]?
"Continue, Thunder Fist!"

Xia Chi pressed his advantage and relentlessly attacked!
Powerful, bullet-like fists and claws rained down on Milotic's cream-colored, slender body.

Puffs of black smoke, accompanied by the smell of burning, filled the area.

Tire Cat deliberately reduced the power of each lightning punch, instead focusing on increasing the speed of her punches.

The lightning-fast attack left Milotic with almost no chance to retaliate.

It showed no sign of stopping, no matter how Ruby directed it to use muddy water, hot water, or water cannons.

The back-and-forth continued for more than a minute.

Despite enduring these powerful attacks, Tireymeow used her Thunder Fist to bring Milotic to the brink of death!
"law--"

After the referee confirmed that Milotic had indeed lost its ability to fight, a whistle blew.

On the large screen above the battlefield, Milotic's icon next to Ruby's icon dimmed, and the score changed to 1:0.

The entire audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers.

Come on!

Before this, no one could have imagined that Xia Chi, who was not favored, would be the one to win the first battle!

Meanwhile, the chat room erupted in a frenzy of discussion.

[Tire Cat actually won?! Really?!]

[It seems that Xia Chi's strength might actually surpass mine!]

[Hey Lu, don't mess with me! I bet 20,000 on you to win. I just want to get welfare!]

Hehe, luckily I bet on Xia Chi to win the championship yesterday~

[Holy crap, even my most ardent supporters wouldn't dare back this much against Prisoner! What are the odds?]

[1 to 1000! To put it simply, if you bet 100 on Xia Chi winning, it means your 100 bets are going down the drain!]

Let's wait and see! I predict that Prison Water will stage a comeback and win the championship!

【.】

Ruby frowned and recalled Milotic. In the few seconds it took to switch Pokémon, he quickly thought of a way to deal with the berserk attack of this Tyrell.

He threw the second Poké Ball before the referee blew the whistle to urge him on.

A flash of white light, and an elegant figure in a pure white dress appeared on the battlefield.

Gardevoir!
