You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 216 Is Teacher Yu being a little merciful today?

"Oh? They actually surrendered?"

Seeing that his opponent didn't react for a long time, a victory icon quickly popped up on the screen, and Qingyu raised an eyebrow.

[Another tennis legend has fallen victim to Coach Yu's wicked tactics. How come Coach Yu is so professional even in doubles...]

[I was horrified by the streamer's dirty tactics; using ability swaps to speed up the opponent is just too much!]

[But this tactic was actually quite effective; it relied on Slaking to take down the opposing Pokémon one by one with a single slap, without really torturing them...]

[This is similar to the Cinnabar and Onix strategy from last time. Teacher Yu really likes using these cute Pokémon as support.]

After watching today's live stream, do you still think Raichu is cute?

Sooner or later, every Pokémon will be turned into a monster by Yu-sensei!

The barrage comments gave "high praise" to Qingyu's use of the "Strongman Asking for Leave" tactic today.

To be fair, Wusong's strength is actually quite good.

Qingyu could tell that he had a lot of clever ideas.

At least before the battle begins, you can quickly make a judgment by looking at your own team's lineup, and focus on focusing fire on your team's core, Slaking, throughout the entire battle.

The idea of ​​decisively abandoning further acceleration after being provoked at the start and instead using the Bronze Bell to open up space and regain the initiative is also commendable.

He had met quite a few kings and dojo masters during this period, and he could not tell at all that this was a newcomer who had been king for less than half a year, and his style was already quite mature.

As expected of the most reliable of the Sinnoh Elite Four, Roll King is much more stable than the Big Leaf we encountered before.

but……

"You still have to practice!"

Qingyu smiled slightly.

"Wusong's tactics are mainly based on speed control. Since it is a doubles game with 4 out of 6 players, there are two modes: the symbolic bird with tailwind to speed up and the bronze bell to open up space and take the initiative."

"However, there is still room for improvement in the selection of Pokémon for both tactics."

The basic structure of the space team is already in place, but it is still far from professional in terms of speed control.

Gallade's damage output is already explosive enough, but how can Medicham and the like be included in a Trick Room team?
It’s very difficult!

"If you students want to learn more tactics, you don't have to be like the Elite Ones and Gym Leaders, who generally tend to specialize in one attribute."

"Getting back to the main point, if we focus on things other than the superpower attribute, the strength of this lineup will increase by several levels."

"We can think of more options. For example, if we have a favorable hand, we can choose the Arrowhawk for a stable first move, or Wind Fairy and Shuttlecock are also good choices."

(Wind Fairy and Shuttlecock Cotton)

[Teacher Yu still loves cute Pokémon so much. Are Whimsicott and Jumpluff really usable? They look like they'd fall over at the slightest touch...]

[The Arrowhawk is pretty good. Teacher Yu has used it several times before. Its output and speed completely outclass the Symbol Bird. It's definitely worth a try.]

Wait a minute? Why is Teacher Yu commenting on a superstar, and what she says actually makes a lot of sense...?

[Tears welling up in my eyes, the streamer really tried to teach me how to optimize the King of Fighters' lineup and tactics!]

[How could I dare to speak?.jpg]

"That's not how it works. In fact, if you all can open your minds, sometimes your creative ideas are no worse than the tactics used by other trainers."

Seeing that most of the comments were complaints and no one seemed to be really discussing how to improve the lineup, Qingyu quickly encouraged them to think more.

Since he also has the role of an online teacher, helping students "get it" is also part of his job.

"Pokémon battles are actually a lot of fun. You can try any random tactics you come up with. Even if they're not very strong, you can still have fun and win a game. Wouldn't that make you happy?"

"Therefore, bold attempts are the first step to success. If you are interested, you can try to optimize this lineup this week."

"As for saying Whimsicott isn't good... I'll show you Whimsicott's strength in doubles during the next stream~"

Qingyu said it casually, while inwardly complaining.

If even Whimsicott doesn't work, then there are really not many support characters available for doubles.

Do you even understand why it's called "black-hearted cotton"?

Is this a preview of the next live stream? Teacher Yu, please don't go on hiatus for another two weeks!

[Tears welling up in my eyes. I feel like Teacher Yu is really becoming more and more like a teacher, and she even gives us motivational speeches...]

To be honest, isn't Teacher Yu being a bit too lenient today? Where's the person who usually uses dirty tricks and tactless tactics against opponents?

Teacher Yu, forever a legend!

Amidst the cheers and laughter in the chat, Qingyu began his journey to climb the ranks once again.

……

"I see, it's just as Teacher Yu said."

I don't know when Pokémon Champion was shut down. Wusong, who was watching Qingyu's live stream, was resting his chin on his hand, seemingly deep in thought.

Qingyu's words came through the speaker, causing him to nod repeatedly.

The symbol bird's speed is still a bit slow, which is actually quite fatal in a lineup that accelerates with the wind.

Just like Qingyu's solution, if the opponent has a Pokémon with Taunt that is faster than him, the move may be forcibly interrupted.

The Arrowhawk, with its natural speed advantage, is indeed a good choice, but it seems somewhat mismatched with its role as a super-powered eagle...

As Wusong was pondering, Da Ye behind him suddenly clapped his hands and stood up excitedly.

"That's right. The League never forced every Gym Leader and Elite Four member to use a single type. It's just that people think it's easier to train Pokémon of the same type."

"If you're strong enough, it's definitely better to master more attributes to improve the team's defensive capabilities, just like A-Liu's Dragon King Scorpion!"

Qingyu's words quickly enlightened Daye.

"Besides Fire-type Pokémon, Team Sunny can also include Pokémon with the Chlorophyll ability, or even those completely unrelated to Sunny, since Sunny can help mitigate the weakness to Water-type Pokémon!"

If we don't stick to the same attribute, the number of options that can be put into the team will instantly increase several times.

When the time comes, if you suddenly pull out something like a self-destructing wind-flying ball or a mirror-reflecting long-eared rabbit, your opponent might not even be able to react.

The more Da Ye thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

(The replica of the large leaf jewel is really dry)
Seeing this, Ah Liu's lips twitched involuntarily.

"I brought Drapion because it's the starter Pokémon I raised since I was a kid, okay? And it really was a Bug-type before it evolved!"

"However, the words may be crude, but the principle is sound. It seems that we can indeed change a few key players from time to time to keep the opponent guessing about our lineup today."

A-Liu nodded, indicating her approval of Da-Ye's idea.

"..."

Seeing that the two of them had so decisively given up on continuing to specialize in their respective strengths, Wusong could only shake his head helplessly.

"makes sense."

"After all, if you want to go further and become the champion..."

"Relying on a single attribute is unlikely to lead to a championship, let alone defeating the Four Heavenly Kings and the current champion in one go." (???)

Upon hearing Wusong's words, a series of question marks instantly appeared above Da Ye's head.

Wow, so Wusong still has his sights set on becoming the champion!

It might sound a little embarrassing to say this, but...

Da Ye and A Liu on the other side exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.

It's not that the brother didn't try hard enough, it's just that Sister Zhulan is just too strong!
The road to victory that no one had been able to clear for over a decade was shattered by Sister Zhu Lan, who defeated the previous generation of the Four Heavenly Kings almost without a scratch within just one year of her debut...

There is a significant gap in strength between them and the younger generation; they even managed to crush the veteran champions in the Dragon Attribute Master Tournament.

and so--

It will be very difficult to beat Sister Zhulan!

"I always felt that if Wusong really wanted to be the champion, Sister Zhulan would be very happy, right?"

Ah Liu suddenly spoke in a low voice.

After all, Wusong has taken on most of the league's affairs, so unless there is an emergency, Zhulan should not have much to do.

However, there's nothing wrong with slacking off!

Since Wusong is willing to take on the work, then let's just hand it all over to him!
"Speaking of which, Teacher Yu seems to be a young man around the same age as us, and he's also the gym leader of Padia."

While they were chatting, Da Ye watched the live stream where the second ranked match had already started quietly, and suddenly felt compelled to speak.

"I feel that Coach Yu's understanding of tactics is at least at the championship level. Only Sister Zhulan can keep up with his thinking."

"Someone as good as him is just an ordinary gym leader?"

"What do you know?"

Wu Song frowned slightly and let out a cold laugh, seemingly mocking Da Ye's pitifully few brain cells.

"Because he is a gym leader, he can meet more newcomers and have more opportunities to battle with trainers and experiment with the wonderful ideas in Yu-sensei's mind."

"Only tactics that have been tested in actual combat are good tactics."

"That's probably why Teacher Yu chose to stay in Paddy Adam as a small-time gym leader, right?"

"That makes sense!"

Ah Liu was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening and nodded repeatedly.

"The Orange Academy in Padilla is arguably the oldest Pokémon school, so the students there must be quite skilled, right?"

"With Teacher Yu's guidance and assessment... will Padia also produce a monstrously powerful champion next year?"

"This is probably one of Teacher Yu's goals as well..."

Thinking of this, Qingyu's image suddenly became much more impressive in A-Liu's mind.

"It can't be that simple, can it?"

Wusong shook his head and then tapped the screen in front of him.

“Besides Padia, Teacher Yu has other ways to expand her influence.”

"Including the three of us, it's probably impossible to count how many elite trainers this 'Pokémon TV streamer' has influenced..."

"If he can truly inspire trainers around the world to improve their skills, his future achievements will definitely be no less than Professor Oak's when he founded the Pokémon school of thought, and he might even have a higher status?"

Thinking of this, Wusong couldn't help but sigh.

"As expected, this world will never lack geniuses..."

Just trying to keep up with Zhu Lan's pace of progress was already incredibly difficult for Wu Song.

As far as he knew, Sister Zhulan seemed to have been following Teacher Yu's live streams.

If you can't keep up with the pace of learning, sooner or later you'll fall further and further behind the champions.

and so……

For the next few days, I slept an hour less each day to study the optimization ideas that Teacher Yu mentioned.

Aside from the adjustments made to the Shunfeng team, Yu Laoshi didn't say how to optimize the Space team; we can only rely on our own experimentation.

I can work even harder!
In order to one day become a top player in the Masters Tournament, Wusong made this promise in his heart.

……

In the following games, Qingyu fully demonstrated the charm of numerical values.

Even a Champion-level player like Gosho has a hard time dealing with Slaking, let alone other Super Ball or Advanced Ball-level "Fishlings".

"Besides being able to create an electric field, the Great Electric Seagull actually has decent output, but since it can't generate its own electric field, it's definitely not as good as just using Yoga Power to summon Slaking."

"so……"

"Go tell my Double-Effort Leave-Asking King!"

"The 'Leave King' has taken too many days off this month, so it's reasonable for him to make up for the lost hours by playing a few games today, right?"

After easily winning several matches, Qingyu couldn't stop smiling.

This simple, direct, and effective tactic is much easier than other more complex and strategic approaches.

When facing an opponent of average strength, he only needs to consider one question:
"Should I let Medicham switch abilities first, or wait a turn so I don't scare the opponent away..."

Perhaps because many gamers are their own fans, the opposing team surrendered at least three times in the one-hour match today.

By the time Qingyu ended his broadcast, his ranking points had reached the advanced ball tier, matching his singles tier.

[We've seen you, the strongman and king of taking leave, are you going to let Teacher Yu have his fun if you don't run?]

That makes sense, might as well just start the next game...

[But this strategy is actually easy to counter, right? Just be faster than Medicham at the start and taunt him, right?]

【Do you think Teacher Yu's "King of Taking Leave" will turn around and provoke you?】

[When Teacher Yu uses these tactics, it feels like a professional salesperson's demonstration; he can accurately predict any move and easily crush his opponent...]

[And then you simply didn't have the skill to do it yourself, and because of Teacher Yu's fame, the opponent saw through your strategy, leading to a crushing defeat, right? Bro, I understand you!]

[Teacher Yu is just too well-rounded. With this kind of predictive ability, do I even need to learn any tactics...?]

Qingyu's performance prompted viewers in the live chat to exclaim that it was impossible to imitate, but at the same time, his previous remarks planted a small seed in the minds of the audience—

If I could have that kind of understanding, wouldn't I be able to develop my own tactics and crush other trainers?

With this in mind, countless "genius teenagers" felt confident and started playing Pokémon Champions, beginning their journey to climb the ranks.

I won't sleep until I win a game tonight!

then……

Time quickly passed to the morning of the second day.
