Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

Inside the No. 7 battlefield.

Mu Yun carried the Sun Elf to one side of the arena. He originally wanted to wait for Song Xiaomeng to put her away, but since Song Xiaomeng didn't mention it and the Sun Elf didn't move, he simply carried her in.

As the two players took their positions, the electronic referee flew out from its charging station as usual, arrived at the center of the field, and emitted a synthesized electronic voice.

"Beep-, please send out your Pokémon!"

"Go, Meow!"

"It's you I've chosen, Xiao Du!"

As expected, Song Xiaomeng sent out Miaomiao.

Mu Yun sent out Xiao Du.

It's not based on any principle of fairness, that each person gets one turn, but simply because it might be a bit difficult for Namikaze to win against Meowth.

Xiao Du is different. Although his poison type makes him twice as weak to psychic-type moves, his bug-type energy can effectively resist psychic-type moves.

With Xiaodu's output, as long as he successfully touches Meow Meow, the match can be declared over.

After all, along with the unpredictable and difficult-to-defend moves of Psychic-type Pokémon, they are also known for their extremely fragile bodies.

"Meow?"

On one side of the field, Miao Miao, floating in mid-air, saw her boss nestled in the arms of a strange man, and a rare look of confusion appeared in her blank eyes.

She glanced back at the trainer, whose expression was calm yet tinged with excitement, then at the languid leader, her thoughts in turmoil.

What's going on?

The boss has betrayed us?

Never mind, it doesn't matter, as long as I don't hit the boss.

After a moment of thought, Meowth gave up thinking, its eyes returning to their blank stare as it looked at the Beedrill not far away.

"Meowth, cheer up! We have to show them how powerful Psychic-type Pokémon are!"

Song Xiaomeng was full of fighting spirit, and her tone couldn't hide her excitement.

Little Yun, fall at my feet!

"Meow-"

Miao Miao nodded almost imperceptibly, a hint of seriousness appearing on her otherwise expressionless face.

"Your 'mother' is really energetic. I hope she can be like that later." Mu Yun said with a smile, stroking the Sun Elf's soft fur.

"Pomi?"

The sun sprite looked puzzled.

Although Meowth is a new member of the team and is much weaker than her, it must be admitted that this little guy is very talented, especially in terms of mental strength, which is extremely outstanding.

At the same level, she's probably not much inferior to him.

On the other hand, the Beedrill was decent in terms of presence, but still not as imposing as Meowth.

"Both Pokémon are in position. Beep beep - Match begins!!"

As they exchanged their views, the electronic referee spoke again.

"Xiaoyun, there are no siblings on the battlefield, I won't let you win, Miaomiao, use telekinesis!" Song Xiaomeng said.

Beedrill is resistant to Fairy and twice as weak to Psychic, so Song Xiaomeng naturally wouldn't start with Charm Voice like she did against Tepig.

Mu Yun had anticipated Song Xiaomeng's plan long ago. With the Eye of Data, he knew all the skills of the Miao Miao Society and naturally had a countermeasure in mind.

"Xiao Du, use your twin needles to break through the psychic power and fly over there!"

That's right, this time it's not starting with silk-spitting moves, but directly with two needles!

With its extremely fast energy conversion speed and superb skill in moves, before Meowth's psychic power could even cover it, a layer of light green Bug-type energy had already covered the pair of silver needles of Little Du.

"Hiss!!"

With its thin wings fluttering, the little creature flew away swiftly like an arrow released from a bow. By the time Miao Miao's psychic power reached out, it had already flown across half the field.

"That Beedrill is incredibly fast!"

On one side of the field, Song Xiaomeng was startled as she watched Xiao Du close the distance in the blink of an eye.

Surprisingly, Xiaoyun is also good at breeding Beedrill, in addition to Bobo.

Unfortunately, his opponent was Meowth (level 18), a Psychic-type Pokémon whose strength was almost on par with a veteran-level Pokémon!

"Meow!!"

As Little Solo flew past the halfway point, a vast, invisible psychic force, under Miao Miao's control, silently enveloped everything from all directions.

"Hiss!"

Perhaps because Bug-type Pokémon are naturally sensitive to Psychic-type energy, during flight, just as Psychic approached, Little Devil suddenly slowed down, and its twin needles, imbued with Bug-type energy, swung rapidly in mid-air.

To the average person, Xiao Du seems to be just randomly scratching at the air.

But in the eyes of Meowth and Espeon, Little Du's energy-infused needles were like heated swords, melting away all the psychic energy that enveloped them with a single swing.

"It really works!"

On one side of the field, watching Xiao Du's flight speed slow down but still steadily moving forward, Mu Yun felt reassured.

The innate advantage of Bug-type energy, the power boost from Bug-type moves, and the piercing effect inherent in the Twin Needles move—combined, it doesn't seem so unbelievable that Little Solo can defeat Meowth, who is much stronger.

But until he saw it with his own eyes, Mu Yun still felt somewhat uncertain.

Fortunately, the addition of the "system" entry was not in vain, and Xiao Du's strength is by no means inferior!

"How could this be? Meowth's psychic powers couldn't stop a Beedrill of the same level?"

Song Xiaomeng was no novice trainer; she had battled countless Pokémon, including many high-level Bug-type Pokémon.

But so far, there has never been a bizarre scene of a Bug-type Pokémon of the same level struggling to advance despite the power of psychic energy.

Even the Scyther, known as the "Zerg Warrior," can't do that!

Why can the venomous bee...?

Is this reasonable?

Song Xiaomeng was surprised, and so was Miaomiao.

It wasn't that she was very knowledgeable, but rather that she was so used to fighting monsters that, apart from the senior members of the team, she had never encountered an opponent who could rival her.

This guy seems a little different!

Miao Miao's mind was in turmoil, but her eyes remained blank. However, her large ears, which were on her head, were lifted up even more.

An even more violent surge of psychic energy erupted and lunged at Beedrill.

Unfortunately, the change in quantity had a limited effect on Xiao Du. Apart from slowing down his flight speed and speeding up his hand movements, it did not hinder him at all.

"Meow--"

After a stalemate of more than ten seconds, Miao Miao suddenly closed its open ears, and a hint of pain appeared in its dull eyes.

This is a sign of excessive mental exertion due to full-power output.

This is one of the few drawbacks of Psychic-type Pokémon. Because of their fragile bodies and low endurance, their ability to maintain full power output is much shorter than that of other Pokémon of the same level.

Once a protracted war breaks out, it is easy to show signs of weakness.

Almost the instant Miao Miao showed a pained expression, the immense psychic power suddenly paused for a moment.

Little Dolphin's crimson eyes lit up, and it suddenly flapped its wings, taking the opportunity to fly away at high speed.

"Oh no, Meowth, quickly use a high-five attack!"

Seeing that Miao Miao had made a mistake, Song Xiaomeng immediately shouted.

It's not some useless "get out of the way" command. When a Pokémon shows an opening, shouting "get out of the way" is basically useless except for creating noise and making the Pokémon anxious.

The correct approach at this moment is to immediately use moves of other attributes to relieve mental stress, while also using offensive moves for defense to some extent.

"Meow!"

As a Psychic-type Pokémon, Meowth reacted very quickly. Almost as soon as Little One got within a meter or two, its furry little hand immediately lit up with a white light.

..............................

[High-Five Surprise Attack: A normal-type move that involves striking with the palm at extremely high speed, with a chance to cause the opponent to flinch.]

(In this setting, the restriction that it would only succeed if used immediately after its appearance has been removed.)

[Cowardice: Feeling fear and apprehension, briefly losing control of energy, unable to use any techniques.]

..............................

"Hiss!"

Seeing Miao Miao's little hand coming towards him, Xiao Du was not afraid at all and still started with two needles.

With his crimson compound eyes providing insight, the long, silver needle easily deflected the slapping hand and struck Meow Meow squarely in the chest.

With 100% hardness, Miao Miao felt an extremely thick and hard object lashing her chest like a whip. The burning pain made her subconsciously furrow her brow.

Before she could react, another equally thick and hard object slammed down on her head from above.

Boom! !

A critical hit triggers!

Sniper special ability activated!!

Damage increased to 225%!!!

Bug-type moves deal double damage due to their super-effectiveness!

"Meow!!"

A sharp pain shot through Miao Miao's body from the point where the hard object had touched her skull; she felt as if her head was about to explode.

Fortunately, the feeling disappeared the next second.

Because she fainted...

..............................

[Ding! Beedrill (10) defeated Meowth (18). Permanent Quest 1: Battle Completed. The opponent's level was detected to be higher than yours. Congratulations, host, your reward has been doubled! You have received 20 points!]

..............................

"Beep--, Meow Meow is unable to battle. The winner is the red team, Mr. Muyun!"

The system prompt and the electronic referee's synthesized voice sounded together.

The Sun Elf in Mu Yun's arms widened its eyes slightly and opened its pink little mouth, seemingly not expecting that Meowth would be defeated so easily.

Just like Song Xiaomeng, who was sitting on the opposite side of the field, stared wide-eyed and gaped.

"Wait, it killed me in one hit? Is Beedrill's damage even decent?"
