Elf: Starting as the Fighting Gym Master, and being entangled by Nancy.

Chapter 430 The Fried Pig Breeded by Reshiram Wants to Claim the Starter Pokémon's N
Stir-fried pigs aren't very fast, but they have the effect of "energy-accumulating flame attack." As long as they can be stacked up slowly, they can naturally outpace Aipom.

After all, Fried Pig's level is already higher than Longtail.

"Stir it up!"

Fried Pig charged forward, its body ablaze with flames, showing no fear, and instantly approached Longtail Hand!

"Nagao Taro, high-five surprise attack!"

At Akin's command, the long-tailed monster transformed into a beam of white light, its tail suddenly whipping out, creating a powerful gust of wind that instantly froze Fried Pig in place!
The stir-fried pork seemed to shrink back in fear.

The flames on his body dissipated.

"Randomly grabbing people."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Aipom once again used its flexible tail to grab at the fried pig!

Phew! Phew!

The fried pig had wounds on its body, and it staggered back several steps, its eyes filled with rage.

It is none other than Zhu Yan, the future Heavenly Flame Martial King, and Reshiram's eldest disciple!

When have I ever been subjected to such humiliation and harm?!

Randomly grabbing things isn't very effective.

But it's undeniable that this thing is extremely insulting.

"Stir-fry the pork, then use the stored flame attack again."

Li Xuan maintained his own fighting rhythm and did not change it just because the fried pig was scratched a few times by the long-tailed monster.

This time, the flames on the fried pig burned even faster.

It rammed into Aipom, causing Aipom great pain.

This pig is way too fat!

For a lightweight Pokémon like Aipom, Stir-fried Pig's weight is still quite formidable.

I almost threw up my lunch just from being bumped.

That's impressive, no doubt about it.

After using the Charged Flame Strike twice, the speed of the Fried Pig increased significantly, making it a very agile pig.

"Chirp chirp." (Damn, how come this pig is so fat...)
Looking at the incredibly robust body of the Stir-Fried Pig, the Long-Tailed Monster Hand found itself unable to muster any resistance.

Is this long-tailed monster in a state of cowering?

[I can't laugh anymore, he got knocked over by a pig and is completely stunned. This rookie trainer's Aipom must be encountering this situation for the first time, right?]

Everyone in the live stream was amused by Longtail's behavior.

The gifts came in like crazy, adding a lot of excitement to the live stream.

"Nagao Taro, don't give up! Use Tsubame Gyoukai!"

"Long Tail!" (How dare you attack me! Prepare to die!)

As soon as Akin finished speaking, the tail of the Aipom burst forth with a bluish-white light.

It soared into the air and spun like a whirlwind, its tail, brimming with flight energy, slashing down at the fried pork like a battle axe!
"Fire Fist!"

Chao Chao Pig reacted extremely quickly, crossing his arms, which were covered in flames, to block the attack.

Boom! ! !
The blazing flames collided violently with the flying energy, and the exploding sparks scattered like fireworks.

"Nagao Taro, get out of the way!"

When Akin saw that Fried Pig's Flame Punch and Aipom's Hand canceled each other out, he quickly gave instructions.

Just as the long-tailed monster was about to use the momentum of the rebound to leap backward, its tail suddenly tightened!
All you could see were the flaming paws of the fried pig, which were clamped tightly around the tip of its tail!
Amidst the crackling and flying sparks, the long-tailed monster was abruptly pulled back from mid-air.

It twisted its body in panic, but like a spinning top pinned to the spot, it spun in vain.

"Stir it up!" (Don't think you're amazing just because you're fast!)

The pig snorted out two plumes of black smoke and then slammed the purple monkey to the ground!
"Stir-fried pork, push it hard!"

Li Xuan's instructions arrived suddenly.

Stir-fried Pig instantly unleashed a burst of brownish-red fighting energy, his thick palms creating afterimages as he unleashed a series of powerful strikes!

Bang bang bang!
The dense palm strikes rained down on the long-tailed monster's hand, each strike causing its fur to stand on end.

The long-tailed monster was stunned by the sudden attack, bouncing back and forth between the palm shadows like a ball, before finally collapsing to the ground, seeing stars.

"Finish it off, smash the tile!"

Li Xuan pursued the victory.

Suddenly, Chao Chao Pig raised his right palm high, his fighting energy condensing into a tangible hand blade, and with the momentum to split mountains, he slashed down fiercely!

boom--!
The hand chop struck the top of the longtail monster's hand precisely, and the aftershocks of the battle created spiderweb-like cracks in the ground.

The long-tailed monster's eyes rolled back instantly, its tail drooped limply to the ground, and it completely lost consciousness.

"Aipom is unable to battle. Challenger, please bring out your next Pokémon."

Referee Xiao Yin announced the result.

Akin silently retracted his Aipom, the soft sound of the Poké Ball's red light returning was particularly jarring at that moment.

His fingertips traced the surface of the ball, but his gaze was fixed on the fried pig in the middle of the field, which was still spitting out black smoke.

This was completely different from what he expected.

That guy's palm strikes were far beyond the level of what a typical dojo would use to deal with a newcomer; every tile-breaking strike was carried with unprecedented ferocity.

"This is a complete monster..."

Akin belatedly wiped his forehead and realized that he was covered in a cold sweat.

While in terms of sheer strength, the slap of the fried pig is indeed comparable to that of a Pokémon of this level.

But what truly sent chills down Akin's spine was the combat prowess hidden within every attack.

Take the previous aggressive push as an example. The series of palm strikes used by Fried Pig seemed like a random push, but in fact, each palm strike blocked any possible escape route...

Of course, the long-tailed monster was originally smashed to the ground and had no way to escape.

It can only be said that this is not the way a novice Pokémon plays; it's more like a battle-hardened veteran who has honed his fighting skills into an instinct.

Wait, is it really possible for a trainer to raise a Pokémon to this level in such a short time?!
The more Akin reviewed the details of the battle, the more his scalp tingled.

The tactical thinking hidden in that smooth and fluid combo was not like the straightforward style of Fire-type Pokémon at all. It was more like... a killing formation taught by a powerful Pokémon.

"Did you find it?"

Li Xuan chuckled and clapped his hands: "This guy is Reshiram's personal disciple who has been trained for three days."

Seeing this, Fried Pig proudly exhaled two puffs of blue smoke.

Akin: ?
Ajin's expression froze completely. His mouth was open as if an invisible hand was choking him, and he couldn't say a word.

Three days? Rahiram?
These two words collided in his mind, sparking a flame called absurdity.

He tried to imagine Rahiram teaching how to stir-fry pork.

Using wooden stakes lit with blue flames as training targets?
Is the turbine tail whipping a piglet to practice dodging?

Wait a minute, even if that's the case, it can't possibly be a three-day crash course!
Or is it that the special training for mythical beasts comes with a built-in time acceleration effect?

A Jin irritably ruffled his already unruly black hair, scratching his scalp with his nails. He stared at the way the fried pig looked, feeling as if his worldview was being shattered and reassembled.

"Alright, alright, let's not dwell on this."

Li Xuan flicked away the sparks that landed on his shoulder and chuckled, "Instead of worrying about my family's cooking tradition, you should focus on preparing for the next battle. Your next Pokémon is about to make its appearance."

Akin nodded absentmindedly, his fingertips fumbling to pull out the second Poké Ball.

A flash of red light appeared, and a nimble mouse-shaped Pokémon landed lightly.

Li Xuan examined it carefully.

Its milky-white belly was as soft as fresh snow, and its bluish-green back gleamed with a cold light. Flames on its head flickered rhythmically at the blowholes on its shoulders, and the leaping flames at the tip of its tail scorched the air into subtle distortions.

That's right, Rockruff!

Pokémon: Cyndaquil

[Attribute: Fire]

【Level: 20】

[Characteristic: Fierce Fire]

[Moves: Omitted]

A level 20 Fire Rock Rat.

The grade is the same as that of stir-fried pork.

Its special ability isn't ignition, so it's still quite capable of fighting.

The second battle begins.

Akin suddenly waved his hand and commanded, "Flame Wheel!"

Flames surged around the Fire Rock Rat, and the scorching flames instantly enveloped it, turning it into a giant fire top.

Huhuhu~
A whistling sound that tore through the air echoed as the burning wheel of fire hurtled toward the fried pig, leaving scorched spiral trails in its wake!
Without dodging or avoiding, Chao Chao Pig crossed his arms in front of his chest and headed straight for the fiery wheel!

boom! ! !
Fire Rock Rat and Stir-Fried Pig clash fiercely.

The impact sent the fried pig sliding backward several meters, leaving two charred marks on the ground with its feet.

After the flames subsided, its thick arms, though bearing several burns, still maintained a steady defensive posture.

"Push hard!"

"Get out of the way!"

The flames on the Fire Rock Rat's head flickered rapidly, and it spat out sporadic sparks as it panted.

Meanwhile, Fried Pig had already sprang forward, his palms once again gathering brown energy!
Bang bang bang!
The barrage of palm strikes fell like heavy hammers, forcing the Fire Rock Rat to retreat step by step, its limbs trembling with each blow.

"Fire Rock..." (Where does this pig get such speed?)
The Fire Rock Rat staggered backward amidst the dense gusts of wind from its palms, its vision blurred with dizzying stars.

Akin was also stunned by this scene.

How exactly was this pig bred for Reshiram?

The sturdy body left afterimages as it moved, and the shockwaves it generated when it surged forward burned one's cheeks.

The embers of the flaming wheel hadn't even died down when another fierce attack from the fried pork was already imminent.

Ajin even wondered if he was seeing things, otherwise how could he not even catch up with the dust kicked up by the pig's trotters?

"Cyndaquil, use Quick Attack to dodge!"

The fire rock rat leaped back quickly, its limbs exerting force in an attempt to create a safe distance.

But Fried Pig's hooves shattered the ground, and its fat body burst with a speed that was beyond its size, each step precisely landing on the Fire Rock Rat's landing spot.

The scorching flame tail and the rushing dust almost met head to tail. No matter how the Fire Rock Rat changed direction or turned, that deadly black shadow always followed it.

Ajin watched helplessly as the distance between the two Pokémon shrank from ten meters to three meters, and finally to just an arm's length apart!
The black smoke from the snorting of the fried pig had already scorched the tip of the Fire Rock Rat's trembling tail!

"Turbid fog!"

The moment Li Xuan gave the order, the pig's nasal cavity suddenly swelled up!

"Stir it up!"

A large, thick cloud of purplish-black poisonous mist erupted, instantly engulfing the Fire Rock Rat.

"Fire...cough cough...rock..."

From within the poisonous fog came the painful coughing of the Fire Rock Rat, its flames flickering erratically under the corrosive effects of the toxic smoke.

Purple miasma tightly coiled around its limbs, and with each struggle, the toxin seeped deeper.

This smooth and fluid combo completely disrupted the Fire Rock Raccoon's rhythm.

It staggered disoriented through the poisonous fog, the lingering momentum from the flash of lightning not yet dissipated, and the toxins of the murky fog began to erode its nerves once more.

The Fire Rock Rat is like a broken signal light; every time it tries to gather flames, it is interrupted by coughing.

"Cyndaquil! Come out here!"

Upon hearing the command, the Fire Rockruff waved its paws in vain, trying to dispel the poisonous mist, but instead spun around in place like a drunkard, making even the trainer's voice inaudible.

On the sidelines, Akin was in a daze, mechanically holding his hat that was about to fall off his chin.

At this moment.

Akin's worldview is crumbling repeatedly. How can that fat body unleash the speed of a cheetah?

What tactical strategies are hidden behind that憨厚 (honest and simple) pig face?!
He seemed like the type who should be throwing wild punches and fighting head-on, but every detail, from the timing of his parries to the spray of poison mist, was so exquisite it was chilling.

Akin frantically summoned back his Cyndaquil, the sound of the Poké Ball closing trembling.

"Stop, stop, stop!" He raised his hands in surrender, his voice weak. "This isn't a gym battle at all, it's a one-sided stomp!"

Li Xuan touched the tip of his nose somewhat embarrassedly.

Actually, in that smooth little combo just now, he secretly had Fried Pig reduce his strength by 30%, and also lowered the toxicity concentration of the turbid fog to a beginner-friendly level.

Even the final Brick Break attack used against Aipom, which should have cleaved the field in two, was reduced to a precision just enough to allow Aipom to take a nap.

If Reshiram knew that its disciple was pretending to be a newbie, it would probably roast its butt with blue flames.

"Well...actually..."

Li Xuan was about to say something.

"Fine, fine, I admit defeat!"

But then Ajin pulled his hat down so low that it almost covered his entire face.

He haphazardly pulled out a Poké Ball and stuffed it into his pocket, his muffled voice coming from under his hat brim: "I thought it would be a great start, but it's just a max-level player slaughtering the newbie village..."

"Actually, you played quite well."

Li Xuan tapped the Poké Ball shell lightly with his fingertips. "The angle at which that move, Fire Wheel, cuts in is very tricky. If it were any other gym, it could at least tear down half a wall."

He looked at the ahoge sticking up on the boy's head and said with genuine regret, "It's a pity that he just happened to run into my family's... uh, stir-fried pig that has been specially trained by Reshiram."

He himself felt a little guilty saying that, after all, the toxicity concentration of the smog just now was almost at the level of a children's meal.

Ah Jin's ears under the brim of his hat suddenly perked up. Even though he knew the other person was trying to save face for him, he couldn't help but smile.

He deliberately turned his hat back to the front, cleared his throat, and straightened his back: "Of course! My Rock Raccoon underwent special training at the Scorched Tower..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ah Jin caught a glimpse of the fried pig spewing black flames, and his voice immediately lowered: "That's right, it can't compare to the domesticated beast of a certain mythical beast."

Is this stir-fried pork really that outrageous?

This is making me want to raise a teddy bear too.

[Did Li Xuan breed a Warm Pig? Looks like I'll have to choose one of the starter Pokémon to raise too.]

……

……

United States, United Alliance.

N, who had arrived at the United Alliance, put down his phone.

Having just watched the battle between the three starter Pokémon, he already has the idea of ​​raising his own starter Pokémon.

So, which of the three starter Pokémon should we train?
"Czechrom, who do you think I should adopt?"

N handed the multiple-choice question to Czechoslovakia.
