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

It has to be said that once he put on the hat and changed his tone, Xia Chen's disguise was quite convincing.

But Mingyi reminded him rather speechlessly, "Not to mention Guleton, once Sylvanas and the others come out, you'll be immediately exposed."

Sylveon is alright. It's been almost a year since it was discovered. While it's not exactly ubiquitous, it's still a fairly common and popular Pokémon.

Shiny Gardevoir is different; there are only a handful of these naturally rare Pokémon worldwide.

Xia Chen's behavior was somewhat like being blinded by one's own eyes and deceiving oneself.

Xia Chen, however, thought differently. "That means someone has gone to the extreme of dyeing Gardevoir's hair, modifying Lizard, and imitating my crime. They can just deny it to the death."

What does your catching of Pikachu the thugs have to do with me, Xia Chen?

Mingyi nodded helplessly and put on the Pikachu headgear as well, the two of them transforming into a pair of thieves.

…………

With everything ready, Xia Chen leaned down and pressed himself against Gu Leton's back, whispering, "Charge!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Leton immediately accelerated. Xia Chen felt the wind whistling past his ears, and then he saw the terrified faces of the Tianxing team members magnified in his eyes.

Just before hitting them, Xia Chen braked. After all, the Tianxing team was just a bunch of rebellious youths; they could be scared off.

If the nearly half-ton Gruton, traveling at over 100 miles per hour, were to actually crash into it, he estimated he would be wanted by Officer Jenny of the Padina region.

Although Xia Chen was quite confident that he wouldn't hurt them, in the eyes of the Tianxing team members, it was a narrow escape from death—Guleton's extreme speed and imposing aura were truly terrifying.

The Tianxing team members were all so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, their limbs trembling weakly, their mouths agape, unable to utter a single word.

Xia Chen never intended to play any kind of high school gang game with them from the beginning. Since he had obtained permission from their principal, Claver, the most efficient way to deal with it was to fight fire with fire and use real social means to tell them that gang games are not so fun.

Ignoring the terrified Tianxing team members, Xia Chen instructed Gu Leton to kick open the gate of the Tianxing team's base.

There were only a few dilapidated buildings inside the base, which looked like abandoned rangers' quarters. Apart from the buildings, the rest of the area was basically a wasteland.

More than thirty Tianxing team members were scattered around the open space in the base, some sparring and fighting, and others playing cards together for fun.

When the base gate was kicked open by Guleton, everyone was stunned. They stared blankly at Guleton, who had just kicked open the gate, and the strange man wearing a Pikachu headgear. For a moment, they didn't know how to react.

This is the first time the base has encountered something like this, or rather, this kind of provocation, since it was established so long ago.

"You bastard, don't you know this is the territory of our Sky Star Team's drug gang? What do you want to do!"

The guy closest to the target gritted his teeth and shouted as he threw out his Poké Ball. A Pokémon, or rather a clump of colorful, muddy creature, appeared on the ground.

This is a Galarian Grimer.

Undoubtedly, this is a prelude to the official start of the battle between the Pokémon.

"Get ready for a baptism of dazzling stars, you bastard!"

…………

"Wait a moment."

Xia Chen slowly and deliberately paused the game manually.

The Tianxing team member sneered, "Hmph! You have the guts to kick down our Tianxing team's door, but not the guts to accept the challenge?"

Someone nearby chimed in, "Haha, just look at them wearing Pikachu headgear and looking like they're too scared to show their faces, you can tell they're cowards!"

"However, his motorcycle lizard is quite realistic in imitating the appearance of the Gulliver lizard, and it probably cost a lot of money."

Xia Chen was speechless. Did this mean that modifying the appearance of a Motor Lizard to resemble a Gulliver or Millet had become fashionable?

That's good too; riding the Guleton around outside won't be too conspicuous.

However, he was curious about Guleton's opinion on the matter, and he used telepathy to stir things up.

They said you're a fake, are you angry?

Since I met Gullett, it seems that I have never seen it get angry except when facing Milton.

As before, Leighton replied calmly: "Why be angry? I greatly admire their vision and aesthetic sense."

Its response was very much in the style of a legendary elf.

However, the next second, the whispers among the Tianxing team members made Guleton's veins bulge.

"Ha! But it's unbelievable that someone would modify themselves to look like Millerton. They're ugly and weak. Normal people would modify themselves to look like Millerton!"

"Exactly, exactly. It's so lame of Guleton to be sent flying with a single whip."

"No matter how you look at it, Millerton is stronger and more handsome, right?"

The Tianxing team members made unrestrained and offensive remarks, and Xia Chen could feel the intense trembling beneath him.

He suppressed a laugh and asked, "How are you feeling now?"

Therefore, even the tone of Leighton's telepathic communication was filled with anger.

[Slap them in the face! Don't let a single one get away!]

Three sentences were all it took to completely break down Guleton's defenses.

Xia Chen suppressed his smile and replied, "Don't worry, as you wish."

Anyone who dares to breastfeed my Guleton, no matter how far away, shall be punished!

…………

"Why aren't you saying anything? If you're too scared to fight, just kneel down and apologize, shout 'Long live the Tianxing Team!' three times and we'll let you go, okay?"

Seeing that the strange man wearing a Pikachu mask remained silent, the Tianxing team members became increasingly arrogant.

Xia Chen didn't engage in further verbal sparring. He simply said calmly, "I didn't mean to insult anyone. What I mean is, I'm in a hurry, so you can all come at me at once."

Since no one recognizes me when I'm wearing a mask, what's wrong with saying a few more witty remarks?

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.

They suddenly couldn't understand the meaning behind Xia Chen's words. What did he mean by "come at us together"?

Shouldn't Pokémon battles be fair and square 1v1?

Does this guy mean he's going to take on thirty people at once?

As the stunned gazes of the Tianxing team members met, Xia Chen added a supplementary clause, "By the way, if you feel that one Pokémon is not enough, it's fine to bring a few more."

This isn't just looking down on people, it's escalated to insulting them, you bastard!

The Tianxing team members were all furious, and then they casually pulled out the Poké Balls from their waists.

There were one or two Pokémon, and three or four at most. The dazzling white light released by the Poké Balls flashed continuously in the base. In an instant, hundreds of Pokémon of all shapes and sizes covered the ground, creating a spectacular scene.

"Houndoom, charge! Tear off his hood, we have to slap him in the face!"

"Muddy, tell him who's in charge here!"

"."

Harsh words echoed throughout the base, and at the trainer's command, the Pokémon all turned their gazes toward Xia Chen.

Then, they ran, jumped, and flew towards Xia Chen, surrounding him in a circle. Even the ground trembled slightly as the elf formation moved.

The scene resembled a zombie apocalypse.

Xia Chen threw out three Poké Balls, and Milotic, Sylveon, and Gardevoir stood in front of him like three shields.

"Buyi!"

The fairy-like silk fabrics fluttered in the wind, and the pale blue, eerie eyes were filled with eager anticipation.

"Fuwoo!"

Milotic stands proudly, its white, jade-like scales reflecting a beautiful bluish-green luster in the sunlight.

"Sana"

Gardevoir floated and stood silently to Xia Chen's side, coldly staring at the Pokémon rushing towards them.

"Feel free to improvise."

Xia Chen said this.

Seeing this scene, Mingyi showed no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, she became even more excited. She tossed her Poké Ball into the air and summoned her three main Pokémon as well.

"Serpent Lord, Cinderace, Earthshaker, assist Sylvanas and the others!"

A spectacular 6v100+ battle is about to begin.

…………

The sky above the base was clear and blue just a moment ago, but now it's covered in dark clouds.

This weather change is not caused by natural factors, but rather by Minas releasing rain.

Although Sylveon and Gardevoir were slow to unleash their moves, they were not idle. Taking advantage of the fact that the Pokémon formation would not arrive on the battlefield for a while, they used Meditation together in perfect unison.

If a workman wants to be good, he must first sharpen his weapon.

In battles that require 1vN combat, if a single move can resolve the situation, it should never be resolved with two moves.

Serperior and the others understood who the main damage dealers were in this unequal battle, so they stood in front of Sylveon and the others, unleashing area-of-effect moves like Leaf Storm to attack the Celestial Team's Pokémon formation.

The goal isn't to deal massive damage, but rather to buy time for Fairy and the others.

Even so, the Leaf Storm unleashed by the elite-level Serperior Serpent is quite powerful, and in addition, the strength of the Tianxing team members varies greatly, with one or two baby-level Pokémon mixed in with the Pokémon formation.

As a result, a Leaf Storm sent several weak or four times weaker Grass-type creatures crashing down on their way.

However, this did not affect the overall situation. The Pokémon army, led by Centipede and Gliscor, continued to advance relentlessly, and several nearby Pokémon had already launched attacks such as Sludge Bomb or Pin Missile to retaliate.

The Serperior, coiled in front of Milotic, had ample time to dodge, but she did not actually do so.

Because Milotic behind her, after casting Rain, greedily used Butterfree Dance. If Serperior dodges, Milotic behind her will be in trouble.

A deep purple energy bomb streaked across the sky along its predetermined trajectory, heading straight for the Serpent Monarch at its target location, followed by a series of incredibly sharp missile pins.

Just as several poison-type moves that were extremely effective against Serperior were about to hit, the ground in front of her suddenly shook.

At the critical moment, the Earth King suddenly burst out of the ground, using his slimy and thick body to form a shield, blocking all the attacks for his companions behind him.

"marsh"

Even the Earth King, with its four times the resistance to poison and extremely high durability, was struggling to withstand the fierce onslaught of attacks.

This is not the most terrifying thing. The fact that these attacks hit also means that the elven army has arrived!
