Even Sinnoh champions have to work hard.

With a righteous smile, she looked at Salamence. She knew better than anyone that trust in Pokémon was more important than battle tactics.

He nodded slightly to the Bloodwing Wyvern and said with righteous indignation and firm determination, "Go ahead. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose. If you want the most direct showdown, then go for it. I believe in you."

The Bloodwing Dragon roared to the sky, spinning rapidly in the heavens before hurtling towards the ground, unleashing its full power in a dragon god-like dive.

P.S. Sorry for the lateness. I kept getting stuck when writing battle scenes, but I couldn't skip the necessary plot points. A Pokémon story still needs to maintain basic respect. That's why countless people said they didn't want to read the battle scenes and would skip the subscription. I also found it difficult to write, but I still had to keep writing.

Chapter 68 Believe me!

Faced with the oncoming Bloodwing Dragon, to be honest, Yulong Lingxi had no other choice. Leaving aside whether she could evade the Gyarados's massive size and speed, if she were to avoid battle at this moment…

Gyarados will probably have a psychological trauma for the rest of its life.

"Gyarados, use Sacrifice Charge."

Upon receiving the instruction, Gyarados leaped from the water and, carrying the hatred of the African war god for the European royal family, soared into the sky. With a hissing sound of air exploding and water waves crashing, Gyarados and Salamence clashed fiercely.

As the smoke and mist dissipated, two figures fell from the sky.

Today, Europe and Africa finally reached an agreement and both sank into the pool.

"Come back, Gyarados."

Because the connection of the Dragon Power was no longer there, Yulong Lingxi did not fall into that kind of climax that was hard to extricate herself. She reacted very quickly and recalled Gyarados into its Poké Ball.

It has to be said that compared to Hydreigon, which has to lie dead on the field for a long time, Gyarados is very lucky.

Righteous and resolute, he also withdrew his Bloodwing Dragon. In that brief moment, their eyes met, and they saw the determination in each other's eyes.

Yulong Lingxi: As expected of Linran, the fighting spirit in your eyes is so captivating. Come on, let's have the duel we've all been looking forward to, and let Charizard knead Dragon to its heart's content.

Righteous and Awe-inspiring: Lingxi is getting more and more perverted. That look in her eyes is giving me the creeps. It's so disgusting. Let the Hunting Butterfly give her a paralysis powder and poison combo first.

Yulong Lingxi is brimming with fighting spirit. The sheer strength of Dragonair gives her immense confidence, which means that for at least the next while, she can enjoy an exhilarating battle! Come on, Rinran, let Charizard and Dragonair have a truly exhilarating showdown!

"Go, Dragonair." With Lingxi's imposing aura, Dragonair's slender body appeared in the pool, its sky-blue skin reflected beautifully in the shimmering water. The radiance of the Radiant Stone shone upon Dragonair's body. This light had no effect on fully evolved Pokémon, but for Dragonair, which had not yet completed its final evolution, it provided an astonishing boost.

No matter how many times I watch it, it still seems very unscientific. I look at the beautiful Dragonair hovering in the water with a righteous air and can't help but admire it. Admittedly, there are items like Everstone in the world that can inhibit the evolution of Pokémon. These items are very common all over the world, but very few people would use them.

Whether a Pokémon's potential can be unleashed is closely related to its evolution. If it doesn't evolve, a large portion of its potential will be locked and cannot be released. This is why Lingxi was surprised when she saw the Gym Leader level peak Tentacle Lily, which has the foundation of a Champion.

But to be honest, the most terrifying one is Lingxi's Dragonair. All pseudo-legendary dragon-type dragons share the characteristic that their potential cannot be unleashed before their final evolution. Most pseudo-legendary dragons need to complete the third stage of evolution to grow into a gym-level or higher being, and then they begin to advance rapidly, just like the righteous Salamence. However, Lingxi's Dragonair is still ranked among the Elite Four, and can still be described as terrifying!

"Go, hunt Butterfree!" Righteous and imposing, he threw out a Poké Ball, causing Yu Long Ling Xi's expression to stiffen slightly.

This isn't the script I imagined. What happened to the grand finale? Why send a hunting butterfly to its death?

Yu Long Lingxi took a deep breath. To be honest, she was a little angry. Although she could understand Lin Ran's idea of ​​having Butterfree give Dragonair a few low-level buffs to make up for the power gap between Charizard and Dragonair, which was what an ordinary Pokémon trainer should do in a battle, Yu Long Lingxi was very disgusted that Lin Ran treated her like an ordinary trainer.

What was that saying again? "I treated you like a husband, but you treated me like a stranger. No matter how you look at it, it's Linran's fault!"

"Use paralyzing powder to hunt swallowtail butterflies!"

Yu Long Lingxi gave a cold laugh, showing her disdain. "Linran, do you think you can just treat me like an ordinary trainer? Do you even understand that if you want to defeat me in the end, you should beat me down with overwhelming force? These underhanded tricks won't work at all. Do you even understand that?"

With the power of the dragon fully unleashed, the connection between the starter Pokémon of Dragon's Cry and Dragon's Cry is effortless, and light is transmitted between human and dragon.

Don't dodge, take it squarely and use Dragon Dance!

Faced with the paralyzing powder drifting down, Hakuryu made no attempt to dodge and directly used Dragon Dance on the spot.

It actually hit! This was much easier than I had imagined: "The Hunting Swallowtail Butterfly uses deadly poison!"

Facing the Dragonair, which was already paralyzed and slowed down, Zheng Yilan confidently and boldly had Butterfree close the distance with Dragonair and use Poison. If the Poison hit, the final victory of this match would begin to tilt.

Yu Long Lingxi's lips curled into an evil smile. The Dragonair circled in place, and a thin, transparent skin was peeled off, instantly eliminating the effects of the attack. It nimbly dodged the poisonous blow, turned its head, and unleashed a burst of flames that accurately struck the Hunting Butterfly. The Elite Four Dragonair's precise attack was unavoidable!

The hunting swallowtail butterfly fell to the ground upon hearing the sound.

Silently retracting the Hunting Butterfly, Lin Ran fell into a slumber. Not only had it failed to achieve any effect, but the Dragonair had even strengthened itself during this time, which was rather disheartening.

Even though Charizard is its strongest trump card, it really... is no match for such an incredibly powerful opponent.

"Trust me!" A voice from the depths of his heart called out, its tone filled with courage, unwillingness, and soaring fighting spirit. It was the bridge of hearts that Kazama Shiramo had painstakingly built for Rinran and Charizard.

Although Linran is not a psychic and Charizard is not a Psychic-type Pokémon, the two cannot achieve the kind of detailed and somewhat terrifying telepathic communication that Kazama Shiramo and Gardevoir have, but they can still convey each other's feelings and guilty consciences.

Charizard could sense the righteous indignation in Rinran's confusion and her lack of self-confidence. It couldn't tell him it was certain of victory, but it wanted to at least assure him that it would fight with everything, even its own life.

P.S. Thinking about it, it's my fault that you've become like this. As a writer of slice-of-life youth stories, I always unconsciously veer into dramatic situations, arguments, and displays of affection. I write romance so smoothly that I can turn anything into a slice-of-life youth story. Sigh, thankfully, the new book I'm currently brainstorming is mostly composed of slice-of-life elements.

Chapter 69 Will Eventually Arrive (The Product After Three Revisions)

Dogs that bite don't bark, because they are aggressive and won't waste their energy on pointless barking like a Chihuahua.

Similarly, a truly powerful Charizard will not breathe fire or roar indiscriminately. When facing a truly formidable enemy, even if it roars while charging, it will always calm down and gather its strength before engaging in battle.

Of course, there are also Charizards that are half-baked and spew fire randomly, such as Ash's Charizard. Before it grew up, it would just spew fire randomly all day long. Luckily, Charizard is a Fire-type Pokémon, so it only spews sparks. If it were a Water-type Pokémon, it would be spitting phlegm.

Yu Long Lingxi smiled as she looked at the Charizard standing in front of her, its aura solidified, and couldn't help but reveal a knowing smile.

Although the process was quite tortuous, Linran's strength was much higher than Lingxi had originally estimated, and she did not expect that Linran could force her to this extent.

But it doesn't matter. Yulong Lingxi firmly believes that she will be the final winner. With the Elite Four level against the Gym level, the help of the legendary item Emberstone, and the perfect condition of Dragonite, how can Dragonite lose?

"Charizard, breathe fire!"

The scorching heat of Gawain erupted at this moment, and a terrifying aura accompanied by scorching flames launched an explosive attack on Hakron.

Dragonair showed no intention of dodging. It opened its mouth and unleashed a burst of flames, the intense heat even causing steam to rise from the pool. There was no fancy maneuvering; it was a pure clash of flames. Dragonair's roaring dragonfire instantly overwhelmed Charizard. Fortunately, Charizard reacted quickly enough, flipping sideways and flying away from the range of the flames, though its wings were only slightly burned.

"Charizard..." Righteous and worried, he looked at Charizard still in the sky. This was the most direct manifestation of the difference in strength. Obviously, as a Fire-type, Charizard should be more adept at using Fire-type moves, but it was completely defeated by Dragonair.

"Charizard, fly up! Move at high speed and use your speed to disrupt the opponent!"

There's no other way to deal with this for the time being, so we can only use our pure speed advantage to create opportunities. This move is very effective for ordinary trainers, but it's obviously inferior when the opponent is a young genius from a dragon-riding family.

The profound truth of dragon taming: be cautious even when alone!

Dragonair's eyes glowed with a ghostly blue light as it perfectly locked onto Charizard, which flickered like a ghost in Mind's Eye mode.

Dragon Fang! Thunder Feather!

This is an advanced ability of Thunder Fang. Lightning flashes from Dragonair's mouth, and feather-like bolts of lightning strike the still-flickering Charizard with precision and elegance.

Fortunately, while the attack that unleashed the arc of Thunder Fang was incredibly swift, it still sacrificed some of Thunder Fang's power. Otherwise, with the Electric type being twice super effective against it, Charizard would have been almost dead.

Even so, the Charizard that was hit was still in trouble and fell straight down from the sky, its huge body creating a large crater in the ground!

"Give up, Linran." Lingxi looked at Linran with a very cold expression. To put it simply, she was already speaking with a tough attitude: "I don't intend to lose this match. The difference in strength is obvious, there's no need to make a futile struggle."

Of course, Lingxi was just making threats. She knew that it was impossible to make Linran give up the competition with just a few words, but if she could make Linran a little anxious, that would be the best outcome for her.

"Roar!" The Charizard, which had fallen to the ground, quickly got up. As it roared, the flames on its tail burned even hotter, conveying its feelings!

"Charizard..."

"I already said it's a futile struggle!" Yu Long Lingxi's eyes flashed coldly. She didn't want any more changes. She had already had enough fun. If she continued to have fun, she would lose control of her bladder. The light in Yu Long Lingxi's eyes flickered. The power of the Dragon Control Technique was now unleashed. The human-like eyes of the Haku Dragon shone with blue light, and flames poured out of its mouth without mercy!

"Charizard, use Heat Wave!" A scorching aura rushed towards Dragonair. Since a direct flame attack wouldn't be enough, using the wide coverage of the heat wave could still impact Dragonair.

The attack was both successful and unsuccessful. The swirling hot air successfully struck Dragonair, but the same Flamethrower also hit Charizard without any doubt. Fortunately, being a Fire-type Pokémon, this attack was not fatal to Charizard.

However, the Charizard, which had just stood up, was knocked down again, which was quite painful.

"Charizard!" Tears welled up in Linran's eyes. Through their spiritual connection, she could sense the severity of Charizard's injuries. However, Charizard still forced itself to stand up again.

'Don't give up, I'm your strongest Pokémon!'

The connecting channel passed between the two, and Charizard's feelings were conveyed to Linran's heart without any error.

'I admire your composure. I feel lucky to have a trainer like you, lucky to be able to protect you. I want to see your smile, I want to win this victory for you, without hesitation. I exist for this purpose!'

'Let me evolve; this time I'll definitely succeed.'

"Charizard..." Tears welled up in Leng Ran's eyes as every detail of Charizard flashed through his mind, each of Charizard's bloody battles passing by in his heart.

What am I hesitating about? Don't I know perfectly well why I can't Mega Evolve? Charizard is willing to fight for me to this extent, so why do I still have that kind of idea in my mind?

Righteous and resolute, he bit his lip tightly, letting the blood stain his mouth. "I'm sorry, Father, I can't agree with your ideals. Perhaps I once believed you, but at this moment, I can no longer do it!"

Pokémon are not tools, and Charizard is even less of a tool. It is my starter Pokémon, my most important Pokémon, my partner, and my family!

"Go do what you want most! Charizard, unleash your power! I believe you will win this match for me!"

The Charizard conveyed its feelings without reservation, and upon receiving the response, a remarkably human-like smile appeared on its face. Despite its exhaustion, the flames on its tail burned more intensely than ever before.

The fiery nature of Charizard was amplified to an extreme; the scorching and arrogant flames seemed intent on burning everything in their path. Within this flame of rebirth, the Charizard was subtly transforming.

Let me explain.

I've read many book reviews. This is indeed my first time writing a Pokémon story, and I've made some mistakes. Of course, many things that seem like bugs aren't actually bugs.

After all, a novel isn't a game. Just like in a game, my Pikachu never learns Iron Tail, would you really think it's reasonable if in a novel it became a Gyarados constantly being beaten to death by Ice Beam? Putting aside the fact that Gyarados isn't a special attacker, does it really make sense for a Gyarados in a pool to endlessly fire Ice Beam? Let alone whether it could even hit a Salamence against a Gyarados with its extremely high speed.

Think about it carefully. A Pokémon with flesh and blood, constantly spitting out icy rays, wouldn't it freeze itself? Wouldn't the constantly emanating low temperature freeze the pool water? Once frozen, wouldn't Gyarados be practically doomed?

Of course, it was my mistake to use Leech Seed on Lily. In my impression, it's a move that every Grass-type Pokémon knows. I didn't expect Lily to be so special. It was my mistake not to check this clearly.

This is my first time writing a Pokémon novel. I thought that having played countless versions of Pokémon games, writing Pokémon fanfiction would be a piece of cake. But as I wrote, I realized that it wasn't that easy. Many tactics that seem perfectly reasonable in the game can't be applied to the novel.

After considering the need for plausibility and the fact that combat is no longer turn-based, many things can no longer be applied. I listened to you guys and read those novels like "Sandbag King" and "Falling Stars," and then I found that it's very difficult to exaggerate to that extent.

The author, Luoyu Xingchen, is truly a master of exaggeration; no amount of hype can match his. However, I am still diligently revising the battle scenes. You can tell by my writing efficiency. Normally, I stay up for two hours every night to write two chapters, but I've been sitting here since noon writing battle scenes and it's only now that I've finished one chapter.

Writing without experience is quite difficult. After all, battles are not like romance. I'm used to writing delicate things, so switching to large-scale battles is a challenge for me.

All I can say is that I'm doing my best. Please point out any shortcomings, but please understand that many of them aren't bugs. This isn't a game; there are many things I need to think about.

Finally, please forgive this trashy, pathetic author.
