Chapter 234 Speak to My Fist of Wrath!

Chapter 234 Speak to My Fist of Wrath! (A long chapter of 10,000 words, 24 chapters owed, please vote with monthly tickets~)

With the siege team at its core, Qingyu's lineup was quickly finalized.

Whimsicott, Arcanine, Abomination, Family Rat, Assassin (female form), and Draco.

Each Pokémon in this lineup has a very prominent function, and thanks to the explanations provided earlier, even viewers can see it at a glance.

The support characters Whimsicott, Arcanine with a strong sense of justice, and Monkey King, which Aoba said would have miraculous effects, need no further explanation.

Qingyu had used the Family Mouse a long time ago. This family mouse from Padia also attacks in groups and has both combat and support capabilities, making it quite comprehensive.

As for Esper... Aoba often brings one into his team because it comes with a starting field and the move "Follow Me," which suits his tactical style very well.

The final Doronbalut was probably designed to consistently suppress the opponent's speed and launch a surprise attack.
In short, it should be a very pure lineup.

[The siege team doesn't sound so sinister anymore. It's similar to the Shattered Armor and Angry Onix from last time. Teacher Yu is finally using some normal tactics today...]

[Where's the normality? Don't forget that Whimsicott's trait is Mischievous Heart; just this one in Teacher Yu's hands would be impossible to find in the mortal realm!]

[That makes sense. Is Teacher Yu about to start using her "good sportsmanship" against her again?]

"Don't talk nonsense! What do you mean by 'a high-quality opponent'? This is a proper tactical demonstration!"

While interacting with the comments, Qingyu started matchmaking for a doubles ranked game.

Perhaps due to the influence of his recent live streams, or simply because the new doubles mode has piqued the curiosity of many players, the number of players in doubles ranked matches has surged, reaching almost half the number of singles players shortly after its release.

Therefore, the speed of matching opponents is also faster than before.

After about half a minute, the matching interface quickly disappeared, and was replaced by a prominent pop-up window showing a successful match.

The image and ID of the opponent Qingyu was matched with quickly appeared in front of him along with a pop-up window.

Her long, indigo hair, flowing like a waterfall, cascaded unnaturally behind her head, its S-shape barely touching her hips, whereas it was originally close to the ground.

Her slender and shapely figure is paired with a hot and daring rose-red top and short skirt, and her black bodysuit is clearly visible.

Beneath the straight bangs, a pair of captivating crimson eyes pierced through the screen, staring intently at their opponent as if imbued with a spirit.

Trainer ID: Sabrina (Psychic)

【Wow, it's this girl! Just looking at her, Miss Naz is so cute!】

[Isn't that Sabrina, the Gym Leader of Saffron City in Kanto? It's said that if you fail to challenge her, she'll turn you into a doll and display it in the gym, so many trainers are afraid to challenge her...]

[You guys have such low moral standards! To be able to fight such a beautiful woman, even dying would be worth it!]

[Hopefully the person upstairs is alright. This guy is a terrifying psychic whose telekinesis far surpasses Alakazam's; he's practically a humanoid Pokémon...]

"Tsk..."

Even Qingyu was taken aback.

How did I get matched with Naz?
According to the current timeline, the Rockets haven't been completely destroyed by some suddenly emerging prodigy.

I don't know if she's the somewhat withdrawn and reclusive gym owner from the game and anime storylines, or the villainous star who joined Team Rocket in the manga...

It's worth noting that among the nine regions that have joined the alliance, Padiya and the neighboring Galar are definitely outliers.

In the world of Pokémon, each region typically has one or more ambitious villainous organizations that are always ready to cause trouble. The main storyline of the early Pokémon games revolves around the protagonist and their clashes with these villains.

The most classic example is Team Rocket, the evil organization that spans two generations of games and is based on the Quartz Plateau.

Of course, Qingyu himself shouldn't need to worry about this part, since the two strongest "kid brothers" in this world should have already embarked on their journey.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Rockets will likely be eliminated by their super rookie roster before next year.

Aside from Team Rocket in Kanto and Johto, most of the villainous organizations in other regions have also been active in the past few years.

Yes, there are nine such villainous organizations, averaging one per region.

Among them, the true villain of Galar is Loth, the League Chairman who is worried about the "exhaustion of the Great Power after 2000" and is preparing to solve the crisis in one go.

Strictly speaking, he can't be considered a villain; he was essentially just working for the development of the alliance.

As for the villainous organizations in the Galar region, they are even more outrageous.

The "Shouting Team," formed to support Miss Mary from Spiketown, did a lot of bad things in their attempt to help the local idol Mary become the champion.

To be honest, Qingyu was once an honorary member of the Shout Group.

Wow, Mary is so cute!

However, this villainous organization, whose reasons for committing evil are even somewhat comical, is clearly not up to par compared to other regions.

Everyone else is thinking about destroying the world, so why are you all so pathetic?

Ugh, you guys are the worst villainous organization I've ever seen!
Wait a minute... it seems like our Padiyaa isn't much better off?

In Padiya, where Qingyu is located, there is no sense of crisis at all, and everything is easily resolved by Padiya's only sun, President Yeci.

The protagonist only needs to go to school and explore the map; apart from venturing into Zone Zero, there is almost no danger...

Moreover, it's hard to say whether the Tianxing Team, the "villainous organization" that opposes school violence, will even reappear after he's caused such a commotion.

Today is also a peaceful day in Parthia.

Of course, the safety of Galar and Padia is inseparable from the responsibility shouldered by the league champions. Both Dante and Yeci have done their best to maintain the stability of the league and can definitely be considered the hardest-working champions.

That's probably why these two regions are so safe, right?
Most other league regions are far from stable, especially Kanto and Johto, which have yet to produce a champion, making them a potential source of trouble for the Rockets.

If it's that vengeful Nazka from the Rockets, I feel like even if we win, she'll be after me...

However, it doesn't seem to make much difference to me?
Anyway, Guandu and Padiya are a million miles apart. Even if you beat Sabrina, you wouldn't have to travel all the way across the ocean to show your true self offline, right?

Thinking of this, Qingyu quickly smiled.

Maybe we can also give the dojo master a little nudge and help her find problems with her command?

"Even among gym leaders, there are differences in skill level. Today, I'll show you who is the most powerful gym leader!"

【Crazy, Teacher Yu, crazy!】

[The streamer seems to have never lost to a skilled opponent; he's been brutally beaten by both Elite Four members and Gym Leaders—it's outrageous!]

[Is Teacher Yu perhaps the most knowledgeable about live streaming among dojo masters, and the best at being a dojo master among streamers? 2333]

……

Kanto region, Golden City.

Golden yellow is the color of shining gold.

As the center of the Kanto region, and a hub connecting Cerulean City, Celadon City, Vermilion City, and Lavender Town in four directions, Saffron City is also the largest and busiest city in the entire Kanto region.

This area is home to Silver Company, a world leader in manufacturing and the largest production base for red and white balls. It also boasts the most prosperous central business district in Kanto and a maglev train station that connects the Johto region and spans multiple cities.

The importance of Kinokunori City to the Kanto region and even the Quartz Plateau is self-evident.

Therefore, there are even two adjacent dojos here, which together serve as a defense for the city's safety.

However, this pattern was completely disrupted a few years ago.

Because the daughter of the previous Saffron Golden Dojo was too powerful, capable of protecting the entire city on her own, the popularity of the other fighting dojo plummeted.

If it weren't for the fact that they still had the power to issue badges, some trainers who failed to challenge the Goldenrod Gym would casually use this opportunity to boost their stats, and it would probably have been forgotten long ago.

The fundamental reason for the rise and fall of the two gyms is Sabrina, the current owner of the Saffron Gym, the most powerful psychic in Saffron City and even the entire Kanto region, and whose future is limitless.

"Well……"

Clutching her doll, Natsumi opened her sleepy eyes and instinctively used her telekinesis to unlock her bedside phone, which hovered in front of her.

"It's already midnight..."

"Today seems to be... the day the newlyweds set off on their trip?"

After lying in bed and relaxing her mind for a few minutes, Naz suddenly remembered this incident.

Starting today, there should be more and more new trainers challenging the gyms in various cities.

However, it shouldn't have much to do with me, right?
After all, the rumor that "if you challenge the Saffron Gym and lose, you'll be turned into a doll!" which appeared out of nowhere some time ago, has already reduced the number of challengers to the Saffron Gym by a lot.

As for where this saying came from...

Aside from the gym owner of the fighting arena next door "accidentally" revealing it in an attempt to get revenge, it could only be a little trick played by Team Rocket to put pressure on him and hope that he would join them.
But Naz didn't bother to clarify the rumor.

At least my workload has indeed been reduced a lot, and I have time to do what I like.

It's not necessarily a bad thing.

"It's so troublesome, I don't want to go to work..."

After sighing, Naz sighed and struggled to sit up in bed.

"Whether it's gym challenges or Team Rocket, they're all so troublesome, might as well just destroy them all..."

Team Rocket has been a thorn in Kanto's side for a long time, and it's even said that several gym leaders have chosen to join them under duress.

Even the two most senior gym leaders, Blaine and Giovanni, seem to have become members of Team Rocket.

Sabrina couldn't really understand the choices made by the other gym leaders.

After all, for a gym to face Team Rocket, whose strength is unknown, with the limited power of a single gym is obviously like throwing an egg against a rock.

It is precisely because they understood this that Team Rocket was able to gradually encroach on other cities, slowly spreading their roots throughout the Kanto region and forming a terrifying underground network.

The Rockets today are probably only a team that can be defeated by the combined efforts of the entire league.

only……

Having gone years without a champion and having become accustomed to a loose structure, does the Quartz League truly still have the ability to unify the entire region?
From a rational perspective, she should join Team Rocket without hesitation now, so that at least Goldenrod City can continue to operate normally and avoid being targeted by Team Rocket.

But if you do that, what's the difference between that and becoming an accomplice of the Rockets?
"If only I could get the answer using superpowers..."

Naz sighed again.

Although she can indeed see fragments of the future through precognition, she doesn't like this feeling of "predestined fate," so she rarely uses this ability to observe her own future.

"Now that things have come to this, let's play games first."

Naza quickly gave up thinking and left the answer to her future self.

Anyway, it's midnight now, and no one should be challenging the gym at this hour. Besides, the gym has a complicated teleportation maze inside, so even if someone did come to challenge it, they would have to wander around inside for ages.

(The Goldenrod Gym was the first gym to use teleport traps, making it a classic design among Pokémon gyms.)

Moreover, she sensed something in the depths of her being—

Perhaps I can find the answer to my confusion through this game.

Superpowered individuals' sixth sense is always very accurate, so Sabrina decided to trust herself.

So, after a quick wash, Sabrina quickly went to the console, opened Pokémon Champion, and began her doubles ranked journey.

In order to maintain their ability to think highly agilely during battles, superpowered individuals usually also participate in doubles matches, allowing them to keep their thinking at lightning speed at all times.

Therefore, since the start of the new season, Naz has been dominating in doubles ranked matches, and even though she hasn't played many games, her rank is still quite high.

But when she was quickly matched with an opponent, she suddenly frowned.

The opponent's ID is "Azure Feather".

Even though Naz doesn't surf the internet much, she's still heard a little about this "Teacher Yu".

He is said to be a very powerful gym leader, and he also has his own understanding of tactics teaching, which is why he became so popular on the internet.

"interesting."

Upon seeing the trainer's image on the other side, Sabrina couldn't help but smile.

Forget about any guidance from fate or other distractions in reality, let's just have a good, satisfying battle!

It's a misconception to say that Sabrina doesn't like Pokémon battles.

The correct way to say it is:

She hates battling idiots and ordinary trainers, but she thoroughly enjoys battling skilled opponents.

Therefore, even her aura subtly changed after the successful match.

"Well then... let me see just how strong the gym leaders from other regions really are!"

Sabrina's eyes were fixed on Qingyu's lineup.

The Pokémon he chose for his team have excellent firepower and defensive capabilities, making him a skilled doubles player.

So don't disappoint me too much!

……

Back to the live broadcast room.

After the matchmaking screen disappeared, Naz's lineup quickly appeared before the viewers in the live stream.

Clefairy, Gallade, Wobbuffet, Alakazam, Brimwyn, Torkoal.

"Interesting, what a standard space team."

After glancing at it, Qingyu immediately made a judgment in her mind.

So it seems that all Psychic-type Gym Leaders love using Trick Room teams?
That makes sense, since Trick Room is a psychic-type move!
Perhaps these powerful superhumans can even manually create their own spatial dimension...

"Brimwyn, the Spatial Aid, is known as the Little Witch. In addition to being able to create spatial illusions, she is also slow enough, making her a high-quality Spatial Aid fighter as well."

While thinking, Qingyu whispered all her thoughts to herself.

(Witch, Brimwen)

“Under normal circumstances, if we want to use this character, we need to add an Attendant as a support and use the Follow Me move to help it set up Trick Room.”

[Does Teacher Yu also know how to use a split-team strategy?]

What are you taking notes for? Just standing there!

Sometimes I really wonder if Teacher Yu actually has superpowers, otherwise how could he remember the tactics of so many Pokémon and adapt them at any time...?

Indeed, it seems like there isn't a single Pokémon that Teacher Yu doesn't know!

A classic super-powered sisterhood space system.

Because the Space Team was known for its ability to "reach Master rank even if my grandma came," many people used this tactic for a while.

Using Absolute's ability to prevent priority moves at the start of the game can effectively prevent Trick Room setters from being hit by Fake Out. In addition, Facial Recognition's ability to absorb aggro allows teammates to set up Trick Room without hesitation in the first turn.

That's right. Watch Me and Shieldon's Rage Powder are essentially status moves used on themselves, so they can ignore the effect of Psychic Terrain preventing the use of priority moves on the opponent.

In addition, Brimwyn's Magic Mirror ability allows her to bounce back other control moves if she swaps places with Indeedee.

Therefore, these two Pokémon that often team up are called "Psychic Sisters".

Qingyu has seen a lot, so he is naturally quite familiar with this doubles space system.

"However, perhaps because Miss Sabrina doesn't know much about Esper, she chose Clefairy, who is also from Kanto and can learn Watch Me techniques, which is a good choice."

"As for Gallade and Torkoal, they are also very common configurations for Trick Room teams."

"Alakazam might be an alternative to break through the opponent's high speed when facing a Trick Room team."

"And there's even a Wobbuffet in the team... I can only say that Sabrina isn't clean either!"

As expected, he was known as the Fruit God.

It's hard to say how strong this thing is in doubles, since Guo Shen doesn't have any offensive means and is a pure receiver.

But if used well, it can be absolutely disgusting.

Especially in the spatial system, a sudden attack like this can easily cause the opponent's mentality to explode.

No wonder they're superpowered; their hearts are all dirty.

After quickly analyzing the opponent's lineup, Qingyu didn't hesitate and made his starting lineup selection.

Whimsicott and Abandoned Monkey, with Indeedee and Arcanine in the back row.

"If I'm not mistaken, Miss Sabrina's starting lineup should be..."

"Picoshi and Brimwyn?"

"The back row will probably consist of Torkoal and Wobbuffet. Gallade and Alakazam won't be able to contribute much in this match."

Qingyu rested her fingers on her chin, making a gesture of looking down in thought, while also boldly guessing her opponent's thoughts.

Both sides quickly finalized their starting lineups, and a huge white arena appeared on the screen.

In the center of the arena, Qingyu and Sabrina's trainer forms stood in their respective halves of the arena, their eyes intently fixed on their opponent.

Soon, four Poké Balls were thrown out one after another.

Just as Qingyu predicted, Natsumi chose a starting lineup of Clefairy and Brimwyn!
[It's here! It's Teacher Yu's signature preview!]

[Teacher Yu used the ability to foresee the future, and it had an exceptionally good effect on Miss Naz!]

[Wait, who actually has superpowers? It feels like Teacher Yu is the one who's the Psychic Master...]

Are you a superpowered person? I think I am!

The comments section was filled with praise for Qingyu.

But Qingyu clearly doesn't have time to pay attention to the comments right now.

These superpowered individuals are all quite strong in doubles, and Qingyu had already gained a deep understanding of this from his previous battle with Wusong.

Although my understanding of combat may not be as good as my experience, I could easily be caught off guard and lose if I don't take it seriously. "Brimwyn, Trick Room."

"Picoxi, look at me."

The moment the battle began, the opposing psychic Sabrina immediately gave instructions.

Upon seeing this, Qingyu immediately smiled.

"As expected, this is the method. Then the answer is quite simple."

"Wind Fairy, let's use the Trick Space too!"

"Abandoned Monkey, provoking us!"

The four Pokémon took action one after another.

Brim and Whimsicott simultaneously gather a ball of psychic energy, while Clefairy makes herself shine first, attracting the attention of her opponents.

However, it obviously had no effect on the wind sprites who focused on using the magic space.

As for the other abandoned monkey...

From the very beginning, under Qingyu's command, its target was this annoying Clefairy!

Unlike Brimwyn, Clefairy will take damage from Taunt attacks as normal.

As a support character, its value is instantly reduced by more than half once it is provoked.

While the Forsaken Monkey successfully provoked and controlled Clefairy, the Brim and Whimsicott on both sides had also finished charging up their power.

The two identical psychic energies expanded outwards from the surrounding area, but quickly disappeared upon contact.

[What?! A magic space can be explained like this?]

[That doesn't seem to make a problem. If the magic space is used twice, and then reversed again, doesn't that mean everyone's magic is useless...?]

[That's pretty scientific!]

"This is the most common solution to Trick Room. Students can use the same approach to solve Trick Room teams in the future."

Qingyu added a brief comment before quickly breaking into a smile.

In this round, it seemed that neither side had caused any damage to the opponent, but in reality, their side had already won.

After Monkey King provoked Clefairy, Clefairy, who was supposed to be supporting Brimwon, lost the ability to protect her teammates and will most likely be replaced.

It's unlikely that Brimwyn herself would force open another space.

So in the next round, it's our turn to put our strength into action!

"Wind Fairy, use Siege!"

"Forsaken Monkey, once you've amassed your fury to its fullest extent, unleash the Fist of Wrath upon Brimwon!"

Qingyu made a decisive command.

Although the Mischievous Heart ability cannot affect the siege attack, which is an offensive move, Whimsicott's speed is enough to lead the field. After using the move first, it continuously punches its teammate, Abandoned Monkey, with small punches.

With each punch it threw, the dark aura emanating from the Abandoned Monkey surged even more.

Until the very end, the overwhelming anger seemed to materialize, and even the viewers outside the screen couldn't help but shudder.

However, given the previous memorable scene of Cinnamon slapping Onix so hard, and the fact that Aoba had already explained the essence of this lineup, the audience's reaction was rather normal.

[Classic support player accidentally kills his own teammate; Teacher Yu will eventually get hung up by his own Pokémon on a lamppost!]

Teacher Yu, do you dare to make eye contact with your abandoned monkey now? You'd probably explode if you did...

[Ambush? That's just like Onix's tactics. Talk to my anger!]

[Fist of Fury × Fury√]

[Even though the Wind Fairy looks pretty cute, why do I feel like laughing when I see it smiling and constantly giving its teammates little punches...?]

How could there be such an evil Pokémon as Whimsicott?!

[Actually, the adorable Whimsicott probably didn't want to attack its teammates, right? It's all the fault of Trainer Yu, it has nothing to do with the Pokémon! Trainer Yu has done all sorts of bad things!]

While the Wind Fairy relentlessly attacked the Abandoned Monkey to build up its "favorability," Sabrina wasn't idle either.

However, instead of decisively recalling Piccolo as Qingyu had predicted, she made an even bolder command—

"Brimwyn, magic flash!"

"Picosie, use the power of the moon on the Forsaken Monkey!"

Having already lost the opportunity to use her magic space to gain the upper hand, Sabrina did not hesitate at all and immediately chose to exchange pieces.

Although it's unclear how strong this Forsaken Monkey is, and what Qingyu's intention is in ganging up on his teammate, with the two Pokémon working together, they should be able to take it down without much trouble, right?
As for the Wind Fairy on the other side, it's clearly just a support character, so dealing with it later shouldn't be a problem.

With this in mind, Naza chose to confront the issue head-on.

In response, Qingyu stated:
"Oh wow, looks like you're pretty brave?"

Seeing the Abandoned Monkey's eyes filled with murderous intent, ready to erupt at any moment, Qingyu made a decisive decision:
"It's time, Forsaken Monkey!"

"Let your anger out!"

This tactic differs slightly from previous Onix strategies. By repeatedly triggering the Shatter Armor ability and Rage, Onix's speed and attack power can be increased to their maximum values ​​for a short period of time.

But the abandoned monkeys obviously have no means to accelerate their growth.

Fortunately, the opponent was playing a Trick Room team. Since Trick Room couldn't be deployed naturally, the overall speed was very slow, which gave Abandoned Monkey the opportunity to deliver a "Serious Punch".

Suddenly, the Forsaken Monkey sprang into action, using its speed to force its way close to its opponent before Brimwyn could unleash a magical flash, and simultaneously unleashing a powerful punch to release its pent-up anger.

boom--

Due to its terrifying power, the punch even created a spatial tremor effect, instantly causing Brimwon's health bar to plummet from full to zero, and he was blasted away.

Only then did Piccolo's Moon Power arrive belatedly, but it only managed to blast away half of the Forsaken Monkey's strength.

[Hiss—, what kind of power is that? How could such a huge Brimwyn be instantly killed?!]

[Isn't the Forsaken Monkey supposed to lack the "Heart of Justice" trait? How can it increase its combat power through ganging up on others?]

That punch felt so good! Just like an angry Onix!

[Kuroba speaks up: Who said Teacher Yu only knows how to use skillful tactics? Isn't this also pure brute force?]

"Theoretically, Monkey King was not actually strengthened by the attack of the Wind Fairies."

While Natsumi was considering making a substitution, Qingyu explained again.

"But its Fist of Fury accumulates fury with each attack it receives, thus increasing its power."

"This is also what makes the abandoned monkeys different from traditional siege teams."

Fist of Fury, a Ghost-type offensive move, is only found in Apeedia and some Primeapes, and its initial power in the Pokédex is only 50.

However, this move has a very powerful additional effect: it can convert one's anger into power, enhancing the power of the move.

The more times you get beaten up, the greater the improvement you will receive.

The Wind Fairy's attack could land up to six hits on the Abandoned Monkey, just enough to maximize its power.

Given Abandoned's combat power, this 350-power Rage Punch could easily defeat a significant number of Pokémon, even with a type disadvantage, let alone a Pokémon like Brimwyn, which is super effective against it.

It's no exaggeration to say that this punch made Brimwyn owe Qingyu at least three tubes of blood!

[666, Teacher Yu even dug up such an outrageous move, it's just too outrageous!]

Onix: Its power is actually comparable to mine? Interesting!

[Actually, I'm more curious about something else: how did Teacher Yu come up with this tactic...? Do you spend all your time thinking about how to beat up your own teammates?]

"However, the Abandoned Monkey's tactics also have obvious limitations."

Qingyu added another sentence.

"Besides the inability to consistently take the initiative, the fact that it can only attack one target also makes it vulnerable to counterattacks from the opponent."

"Because the Abandoned Monkey only increases the power of the Fist of Wrath, it is not as flexible to use as the normal Siege of Justice."

"Due to type resistance, this move has no effect on normal-type Pokémon, so theoretically it has a blind spot."

"Of course, this is only in theory. After all, another attribute of the Forsaken Monkey is fighting. If we really encounter one..."

"Go ahead and talk to me about close combat!"

Sabrina was clearly stunned by the fighting power of this abandoned monkey, and after hesitating for a while, she sent out Torkoal from the back row.

Why single out a Coal Turtle? The opponent clearly isn't using a Sunny Day strategy...

[Hey upstairs, Torkoal is a Tortoise-type Pokémon! Do you know how slow it is? In Trick Room, almost nothing can outrun it!]

[Besides, Turtle doesn't really need any other attackers from the Sunny Day Team; it's the perfect damage dealer itself. It's really not familiar with the other Sunny Day brothers!]

Groudon, also known as the Coal Tortoise!

"Coal Tortoise, right? It is indeed a very common choice for Trick Room teams."

"But... you still want to make the first move without any space?"

"Dreaming!"

Qingyu continued to give commands while skillfully using "Loud Roar":
"Abandoned Monkey, use Rage Punch on Coal Tortoise again!"

"Wind Fairy, help the Forsaken Monkey!"

Two commands were issued in quick succession, and the familiar scene unfolded once again.

However, Coal Turtle was indeed a bit tough, so as a precaution, Qingyu instructed Whimsicott to use its help, which boosted Monkey King's combat power to a new level in a short period of time.

After taking another step, the fierce-looking Abandoned Monkey quickly arrived in front of the Coal Tortoise that had just appeared.

Another punch was thrown.

boom--!
Thanks to the boost in combat power from the help, this punch was even more powerful than before, with a strong shockwave that seemed to shatter the screen.

"Even if Hu Hu came, he couldn't withstand this punch, I'm telling you!"

Qingyu revealed a confident smile, knowing without even looking that this coal turtle had no chance of surviving that punch.

The Coal Mine with the Power Sash is too niche; given Sabrina's confidence, she probably wouldn't use such an outrageous setup.

[Awesome, they're really slaughtering everyone...]

Although it wasn't as fast as the Onix system in defeating opponents, this punch felt like it cured my Jade Syndrome.

[This is the one that won't make you laugh (thumbs up)]

But there seems to be another problem... Did Teacher Yu forget that there's a Clefairy on the other side?

[Oh yeah, if Clefairy uses Moon Power again, you abandoned monkey will be done for!]

"I'm not even in a hurry, why are you all so anxious? Think more about why Teacher Yu did this!"

Qingyu revealed a confident smile, as if everything was under his control.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

"Then let me ask you, isn't a doubles battle 4v4? My Monkey King has already taken down two of the opponent's main Pokémon in one go, is it a problem for him to take a break and calm down?"

"A one-for-two trade is definitely a huge win for us. As long as Whimsicott is still around, the next Arcanine can still be activated at lightning speed by ganging up on it."

"Sarcasm's back row is most likely a Wobbuffet. If I ignore it, does that mean the opponent only has one Clefairy?"

"Three against one, and they still get killed?"

While Qingyu was complaining, Sabrina, just as he expected, commanded Piccolo to finally deal with this troublesome abandoned monkey.

however……

When she sent out her final Wobbuffet, Qingyu quickly sent out her backup Pokémon as well—

Arcanine is classified as a Legendary Pokémon!

Of course, Arcanine is not a true legendary Pokémon; it is merely a creature from an ancient legend in a certain Eastern region, which is why it is classified this way.

"Wind Fairy, use Siege again!"

"Arcanine, use Flare Blitz on Clefairy!"

The same tactic was used again; Clefairy's provocative state remained unchanged, and Wobbuffet had no way to interfere.

Sabrina had no choice but to send Clefairy to attack again, while Wobbuffet used Destiny Bond, targeting Arcanine.

Knowing that the opponent was beyond saving, Qingyu was able to make such a decisive command.

The wind sprite's little fists slammed into its teammate again.

Even though its teammate changed from Forsaken to Arcanine, its attack pattern remained unchanged, and every punch solidly triggered Arcanine's Righteous Heart ability.

Arcanine's combat power continued to soar, and finally, after breaking through its limit, it let out a roar that shook the sky. Its fur instantly burst into flames as it launched a fierce attack on Clefairy!

"Ouch!"

Fire-type physical attackers' signature move, Flare Blitz, is already quite powerful on its own, and when combined with Arcanine's enhanced power, it becomes terrifyingly strong...

Picosi had no chance to react before being engulfed by flames and its health was instantly depleted.

As for the last one, Wobbuffet...

Qingyu even maliciously waited a turn to remove the Destiny Bond effect, and then used Whimsicott's Mischief to preemptively strike Taunt, preventing Wobbuffet from using any moves.

It could only be sent flying by the "super mud truck" Arcanine, and after two consecutive attacks, it finally collapsed to the ground from exhaustion.

In just a few minutes, Natsume's space team was defeated at lightning speed.

The final score was 4-1.

But in reality, all the viewers knew that if Qingyu had toned down his tactics a little and hadn't used such extreme methods that allowed the Abandoned Monkey to be defeated so easily...

Miss Naz on the other side might even have her head shaved!

[Hiss—, they've already broken through?]

[Why did this game look so easy? Could I do it too?]

[You're kidding me! Didn't Teacher Yu tell you that the opposing team was a space team?]

【Me...hehe~】

[This is outrageous! A Arcanine that's as fast as lightning possesses such terrifying power! Another masterpiece comparable to Onix's Angry form!]

Staring at the prominent "Victory" icon on the screen, the barrage of comments began to surge wildly once again.

"Phew, luckily I'm a cut above the rest."

Qingyu wiped away non-existent beads of sweat from her forehead, let out a long sigh, and smiled again.

"So, this tactic is actually quite simple, isn't it?"

"However, in practice it may not be as easy as it looks."

"For example, what do you students think is the key to this battle?"

As the designated "online course" of Orange Academy, Qingyu also began to skillfully guide the comments to think about the previous game.

[Ambush? Without an attack, both Abandoned Monkey and Arcanine would be much weaker, right?]

[I think it's the Fist of Rage; a Pokémon that can one-shot its opponent is too overpowered!]

[It should be Trick Room. If we don't cancel out the opponent's Trick Room at the start, Teacher Yu won't be able to get the first move!]

Hmm...why do I feel like it's a provocation?

"Bingo~"

Having finally seen the answer he wanted, Qingyu immediately snapped his fingers and smiled:
"Congratulations to this clever student, you got it right!"

"The key to this battle was actually the provocation that the Abandoned Monkey threw at the beginning."

At the start of the game, Qingyu's seemingly compromised choice to avoid being interfered with by his opponent was actually the key to him truly controlling the rhythm of the game.

Besides the mutual cancellation of the magic space, restricting Piccolo was what allowed this siege tactic to be perfectly executed.

"After watching Teacher Yu's live streams for so long, I believe you all have a certain understanding of the role of the support player in doubles."

"If we don't provoke this Clefairy, whether it's watching me, switching sides, or even going for another round, it will greatly influence our decision-making."

"Only after eliminating Pekoshi's interference will Sabrina's only space-time setter be threatened by us, and she won't have the chance to open a space again."

"Is this true?"

Qingyu smiled slightly, waiting for the comments to respond.

[It seems...that actually makes sense?]

[That's interesting. Is this why Teacher Yu repeatedly emphasized the "provocative hand" approach a long time ago? I've learned something new!]

Teacher Yu tried to teach me, and what's even more absurd is that I think I actually understood...

With Teacher Yu's guidance, I feel incredibly strong right now!

[Ranked Match, Start!]
