Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game.

Forget about instantaneous speed; looking at Milotic's energetic and lively state, does it live up to its meticulous design and calculations?

So, is it that the water spray itself doesn't do enough damage?

Bai Zhengqiu glanced again at the Magneton, which had been floating helplessly in mid-air after the tide receded and then crashed to the ground, barely alive, and ruled out that possibility.

It can't be that Milotic's durability is so high that it only suffered a minor scratch after withstanding double the damage from Water Spray, right?

That's even more unrealistic.

Several possibilities flashed through Bai Zhengqiu's mind, but the situation on the field at this moment did not allow him to think any further.

Bringing himself back to reality, he said in a deep voice, "Magneto, Volt Displace!"

Bai Zhengqiu remained calm. He knew that Magneton was the best Pokémon in his team to fight against opponents, and even though it was already seriously injured, it could not fall here.

But just as the command was given, Magneton was about to rally its spirits and use Volt Switch to escape the battlefield.

The next second, a water cannon roared in, engulfing the Magneton's form and its last hope of survival.

The score on the battlefield has now been changed to 1:0.

…………

Bai Zhengqiu dejectedly lowered the Poké Ball he had been holding, the confident smile on his lips long gone.

As expected, Milotic's attack speed is still that fast.

If I had used a Poké Ball to recall it instead of Volt Switch, there might have been a chance. I was too greedy.

But the regret was fleeting; at that moment, what he was thinking about more was...

Why is the damage from specular reflection so low?

Is it

Recalling the strange purplish-red hue in the reflected beam of light, he seemed to have found the answer.

Not only Bai Zhengqiu himself, but also the audience members were discussing this issue enthusiastically.

"Oh no, it's really turned into a halftime champagne celebration."

"What's going on? Didn't the mirror reflection hit? How come it only did so little damage?"

"Milano is open?"

"Fun fact: The color of the mirror-reflected beam is pink, a color mixed with the reflective properties of the attack."

"If I'm not mistaken, it looks like...purplish-red? That means Magneton is reflecting Dragon-type moves?!"

"That doesn't make sense. From the beginning until now, Xia Chen has only given one command: water spray. When did he let Milotic use a Dragon-type move?"

"I don't know, but this is the most reasonable and only possible explanation. As for how Xia Chen did it, only he himself knows."

"Tsk, the righteous are one foot high, but the evil are ten feet high!"

"Damn it, he got away with it again!"

…………

Looking at the fallen Magneto, Xia Chen's lips curled up slightly.

I knew this kid was up to something. Despite being at a disadvantage, he didn't try to take the initiative at the start, instead acting like he wanted to play defensively and counter-attack.

Aside from Mirror Reflect, a move that doubles the damage on the Special Attack side, there's no other move worth sacrificing to take a Water Spray.

The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

Are you the only one who can preview?

Xia Chen thought to himself with considerable pride.

As for why he could make Milotic add a dragon breath after spewing water without being commanded, it was closely related to the "Dragon Taming Power" bestowed upon him by the Dragon Island Venerable.

The power of the fairy world is truly wondrous.

Perhaps it affected Xia Chen's brainwaves or something. Although the power of dragon control could not enable him to communicate telepathically with Milotic and the little dragon, they could understand some of the simple thoughts in each other's minds.

This tactic is especially useful in combat. Sometimes, even a small difference in information between the two sides can completely change the situation.

Just like that dragon breath from just now.

Back on the battlefield, the match continues.

After all, it was a crucial school team position change challenge. Although the start was unsuccessful, Bai Zhengqiu did not give up.

He recalled the Magneton, which had lost its ability to fight, and sent out his second Pokémon.

A flash of white light appeared, and an elf that looked exactly like a steel durian appeared.

Three small, grass-green iron balls connected by vines slammed heavily onto the ground, making it stand up like three legs.

Bai Zhengqiu's second Pokémon was none other than the excellent defensive Pokémon, known as Ferrothorn, which had no weaknesses except for being 4x weak to Fire.

…………

The Nut Dumbbell's excellent dual defenses and durability, along with its outstanding resistances, make it a headache for opponents on the battlefield.

Is Milotic easy to beat?

It's naturally difficult to fight. Once Milotic gets hit by Leech Seed, it doesn't have many moves that can hit Grass/Steel types, so it basically has no way to deal with the opponent's Ferrothorn.

However, the force of Cao Gang's powerful whipping is not low. If this continues, it may actually give the opponent an opportunity.

Xia Chen was never stubborn. Upon seeing the annoying giant iron ball, he immediately replaced Milotic with Sylveon, who possessed magical fire abilities.

While Xia Chen was switching Pokémon, Bai Zhengqiu naturally wouldn't be idle. Before Sylveon could even enter the arena, he commanded Nutbell to charge forward.

"Nut dumbbells, spinning tops!"

"Fur——"

With a dull thud, the nut dumbbell lifted off the ground, and the inertia from the movement of the iron balls flipped its heavy body over.

Immediately, the three rattan whips connecting the nut dumbbell's body to the iron ball began to swing and spin powerfully.

Along with the nut dumbbell, its body also began to spin rapidly like a top.

It's a Steel-type move, Gyro Ball.

This was clearly a move that Nut Dumbbell was extremely skilled at; he had already executed the series of movements smoothly before Sylvanas even landed.

Moreover, the three swinging and spinning iron balls provided inertia for the body below, making it spin faster and faster, while the energy within the body also drove the three iron balls to swing even more wildly.

This virtuous cycle continued for only a few seconds before a silver-gray spinning top with a meteor hammer on its head, wheels of fire on its feet, and iron spikes all over its body roared towards Xianbu, who had just landed on its feet!

…………

"Xianbu, ignore it, use Magic Fire!"

Xia Chen's command immediately stopped Xianbu, who instinctively tried to extend her silk ribbon to distance herself from the increasingly dangerous spinning top.

Xianbu was stunned for a moment. Then, she realized that the strength of this nut-shaped dumbbell was far inferior to her own. Her opponent would definitely not be able to withstand a magical flame. Why bother to create distance?

Finch was frustrated that she still couldn't shake off her instinctive dependence. Then, she turned her frustration into anger and vented it on the nut dumbbells that were oblivious to her impending doom.

Fire energy, mixed with a hint of fairy aura, surged to his chest. In the next instant, a fire dragon with specks of pink light roared out and crashed head-on into the still spinning top ball.

After being scorched by the blazing flames for about three or four seconds, the nut-dumbbell's silver-gray body, interspersed with green, was completely charred black.

The three crispy roasted vines drooped limply, and the spinning top ball slowly stopped spinning before crashing to the ground.

With the end of the magical flame, the elf, on whom Bai Zhengqiu had placed his hopes for a comeback, had lost its ability to fight.

One blow, instant kill!

audience:"."

This nut-shaped dumbbell that disgusted countless trainers has just collapsed?

While it's true that Steelix is ​​four times weaker to Fire, the Valve's durability isn't low either, so why does it act like a fragile little thing?

After two months, has the strength of this Immortal Cloth, this Xia Chen, really become so exaggerated?

If Milotic's Dragon Breath in the previous match showcased Xia Chen's predictive command skills, then Sylvanas's magical flame demonstrated the raw strength of Xia Chen's lineup.

Just two months ago, Xia Chen, while also employing various tricks, still needed to rely on concealing his true abilities to advance to the school team.

Is staying at Cynthia's house for two months really that effective?

Chapter 219 This is the consequence of not believing in God!

When Sinbu effortlessly defeated Nuts Dumbbell, bringing the score to 2-0, the match was essentially over.

Milotic and Sylveon are in good condition, and Xia Chen's last Pokémon hasn't even appeared yet. This means that if Bai Zhengqiu wants to turn the tide, he will have to achieve a one-versus-three feat.

But if he really had that ability, why would he have been stuck outside the top 50 for so long?

So, after symbolically sending out his last elven bronze bell as a sign of defiance, Xanbuck simply ended the battle with two magical flames.

Thus, this positional switch match officially ended with Xia Chen successfully defending his position with a score of 3-0.

Aside from a minor mishap during the match, the result was as expected, and after Xia Chen left the field, no one paid any more attention to the game.

Needless to say, in the final few matches, the stronger school team members finished the battles with almost no effort against opponents who barely made it into the top 50, with scores mostly showing a crushing 3-0 or 3-1.

A little after 5 p.m., this month's reshuffling competition came to a complete end.

But everyone knows that the reshuffling rounds are just an appetizer before the main course; the selection rounds on the second day are the real meal.

That evening, Xia Chen received a text message from the school administration office containing the selection competition rules that he had been curious about for a long time.

As he envisioned, the rules were quite simple.

The competition consists of two rounds. In the first round, those ranked 21-30 will face off against those ranked 11-20, with opponents randomly drawn and the winners advancing.

Similarly, in the second round, the winner will be randomly selected to fight against one of the top ten players. Only the winner will be able to secure one of the ten spots in the Donghuang Youth Tournament.

Xia Chen's earlier guess was correct; the competition rules did indeed favor those with higher rankings on the ladder, but the beneficiaries were the top ten. He, ranked nineteenth, still needed to play two matches.

But it doesn't matter. Since the goal was set from the beginning to win the championship, how can we be hindered by the opponents in the qualifiers?
