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

The lightning stopped.

The venue returned to its dim lighting, and the space fell silent once more, as if nothing had changed, yet everything had changed.

On the battlefield, Gyarados collapsed from a low altitude to the ground, motionless, clearly having lost its ability to fight.

Gardevoir, with just one Thunderbolt, instantly killed the once arrogant Gyarados!

A heated discussion suddenly erupted from the long-silent audience.

"One 100,000 volts and a Gyarados is gone? Is that even possible?"

"Even if Gyarados is four times weak to Electric, can Gardevoir's 100,000 volts after Meditation really be that powerful?"

"Even if the two Pokémon are of equal strength, it's impossible. According to the species data, Gyarados's Special Defense is second only to its Attack among all its abilities!"

"Moreover, Yin Yuan herself is an Electric-type specialist trainer, and she must have given Gyarados professional training in resisting electricity!"

"If Gyarados is fine, then the problem lies with Gardevoir. What kind of monster is that?"

From the perspective of the audience and Yin Yuan, it was unbelievable that Gardevoir could instantly defeat Gyarados, which was much stronger than her, with a single Thunderbolt attack.

However, from the perspective of objective facts and data known only to Xia Chen and Gardevoir, this is actually quite reasonable.

First, the effects of meditation enhanced with emotional energy are almost doubled.

Furthermore, the emotional energy was also amplified by 100,000 volts, which is another 1.5 times the boost.

In summary, the power of this 100,000-volt attack is three times what the unsuspecting person expected!

To be honest, Gyarados still owes Gardevoir a whole vial of health.

Therefore, Gardevoir is not a monster, but just an ordinary overpowered character.

Q: Do you know you're in Japan?

A: I know, I think only by writing 10,000 words a day can I prove that I am a writer.

Q: So, was your daily 10,000 RMB purchase intentional or accidental?

A: It was intentional! (Proud face)

）

Gyarados fell unexpectedly.

At least for the audience and Yin Yuan.

The two Pokémon and their trainer had been outwitting and battling for so long, but in the end, the Pokémon was killed by a single Thunderbolt attack.

It's still somewhat hard to accept.

However, since even the referee has made a ruling, it would be self-deception not to accept it.

A careful review of Yin Yuan's command just now reveals that he not only made no mistakes, but was actually exceptionally good.

Whether it's the Iron Tail lurking in the shadows or that amazing Dragon's Head, if it were an ordinary opponent, they would probably have already outplayed them.

Unfortunately, she ran into Xia Chen, who was even more cunning and played even dirtier games.

Despite Yin Yuan and Gyarados's outstanding performances, they ultimately became the backdrop for Gardevoir's amazing Thunderbolt attack.

Even now, they still have no idea how a single 100,000 volts attack could instantly defeat Gyarados.

However, the battlefield doesn't leave much room for thought.

After being shocked for a few seconds by Gyarados's sudden death, Yin Yuan recalled the Gyarados that had lost its ability to battle, prompted by the referee.

A flash of white light appeared, and she sent out her last main Pokémon.

A tiny sprite with two eyes, shaped like a miniature washing machine, floated in mid-air.

It is the electronic ghost Pokémon nicknamed "Washing Machine" that is formed by Rotom entering a washing machine driven by a special motor, and it cleans Rotom.

"Rotom, I'm counting on you!"

Yin Yuan had high hopes for his last Pokémon.

In her view, the battle was far from over.

Xianbu's strength was greatly reduced due to his paralysis.

Gardevoir, with its double weakness to Steel and low physical defense, took a solid hit from a Gyarados's Iron Tail, and its condition is bound to be bad.

The last Milotic was in perfect condition and had a strange resistance to Electric-type attacks.

However, it's not a complete resistance; Electric-type moves still deal more damage than moves that aren't super effective against it.

So as long as you and the washing machine perform well enough, there is still a chance to create space for Rayquaza to reap the rewards.

This Gardevoir in such poor condition is just the beginning of a comeback!

…………

Gardevoir felt a slight pain in its chest, where it had just been struck hard by Gyarados's Iron Tail.

This Gyarados's attack power was unusually high, if it weren't for the candies and the power-up items that Zoroah and Dragapult used to help each other.

Gardevoir probably won't be able to withstand just that Iron Tail attack.

Unfortunately, her physical strength and defense are still too weak, and even with the enhancements, her current condition is definitely not good.

If compared to a health bar in a game, Gardevoir secretly estimated that she now had at most a quarter left.

If Xia Chen doesn't substitute himself out of the game, the only move he can use to make a final impact is the one mentioned during the pre-match tactical discussions.

"Gardevoir, fight to the very end!"

Behind them, Xia Chen uttered something meaningful, and Gardevoir understood, feeling a chill run down her spine.

"Rotom, Electric Field!"

Gardevoir, Light Screen!

The turning point of the entire match came when both trainers abandoned their previous aggressive, all-out command style of either boosting or attacking, and instead began to employ tactics.

Their intentions were quite clear.

Xia Chen wanted to erect a light wall to provide a higher margin of error for the Sylveon and Milotic in the back row.

Yin Yuan's thoughts were a bit more complicated; she was anticipating that Xia Chen would use a combination of hypnosis and dream-eating techniques.

Therefore, an electric field was created that prevents Pokémon from falling asleep.

(The field immunity sleep effect in the game does not apply to Rotom with the levitation ability; this is a secondary interpretation.)

It's unclear whether Xia Chen read Yin Yuan's text first or simply didn't have that thought, but in any case, Gardevoir didn't use hypnosis.

Fortunately, no, otherwise Gardevoir would have been blown up in this round of battle.

Putting aside this game of strategy, the choices made by both sides ultimately became an exchange of changing tactics.

Gardevoir erected a Light Wall that reduced special damage by nearly half for its allies, while Rotom created an Electric Terrain that increased the power of Electric-type moves by 30%.

Overall, Xia Chen earned more.

Moreover, both Gardevoir and Sylveon can easily cover Electric Terrain with Misty Terrain, while the opponent...

You have a washing machine and a Jolteon, you can't just suddenly pull out a tile splitter and split the light wall, can you?

…………

After the two Pokémon activated their respective transformation moves without interfering with each other, Yin Yuan finally launched an attack.

"Rotom, Shockwave!"

Perhaps fearing that the elusive Gardevoir might have a teleportation-based evasion technique, she didn't dare use the more powerful Thunderbolt or even Thunder, but instead commanded Rotom to unleash Electric Wave.

This is a move that can be considered an electric version of High Speed ​​Star.

In Yin Yuan's opinion, as long as Xia Chen doesn't replace Gardevoir, there's nothing for her to worry about.

Gardevoir's current state is what it is; even if it uses Light Screen, it's just a matter of using one more move.

Instead, one must be wary of the possibility of the opponent seizing the opportunity to instantly teleport behind Rotom and launch a sneak attack.

So she wanted to take advantage of the washing machine's agility and slowly wear down Gardevoir with short, fast moves like Electric Shock.

Xia Chen didn't care. One electric shock wave, and you still think you can take down my Gardevoir with Light Wall and Meditation?

"Gardevoir, Misty Terrain!"

Ignoring the rapidly approaching electric shockwave, Gardevoir calmed down and circulated the Fairy-type energy within its body.

Yin Yuan's lips curled slightly, just waiting for you to take the bait.

"Rotom, now! Thunder!"

For Rotom, the electric field was both useful and useless.

Its usefulness lies in its ability to increase a Pokémon's Electric-type moves; its main purpose, however, is to defend against Gardevoir's Hypnosis.

What can be protected in an electrical field can also be protected in a foggy field.

Misty Terrain: Pokémon in the area will not be affected by status conditions, and Dragon-type moves deal half damage.

Gardevoir is fine as long as the electrical system isn't replaced, but if it is...

The electric field Rotom set up became a trap that bound Gardevoir.

Like now!

…………

Before long, the thin yellow film of flashing electricity that had previously covered the battlefield disappeared, and at the same time, the field was shrouded in a light pink smoke.

This means that the electrical field has disappeared, and in its place is the fog field.

But at the same time, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting Gardevoir squarely as it had just set up the misty terrain and had no time to dodge.

Boom——

A deafening clap of thunder echoed across the arena once more, and this time, Gardevoir was unable to use Teleport to dodge it.
