Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

An elf circled out a battlefield.

Xia Yan raised an eyebrow.

interesting.

Although this scyther was made more aggressive by the inexplicable energy, it still adhered to its principles and chose to fight the giant bee one-on-one.

Xia Yan's other Pokémon surrounded him, wary of the wild Pokémon that might suddenly attack at any moment.

"Xia Yan!!"

rear.

The shouts of Xingyue and the others could be heard.

They finally realized what was happening.

Unfortunately, they are currently being held back by a group of wild elves and cannot get closer.

They could only watch from afar as Xia Yan's Mega Beedrill and Scizor stood in the center of the circled battle arena.

"Scyther wants to have a one-on-one battle with Xia Yan's Pokémon?"

The pearl oyster slightly parted its teeth, revealing a worried expression.

"The wild elves are not rioting for the time being, so we should not act rashly."

Although Xingyue was also worried, she was a little hesitant to disrupt this balance.

"Perhaps looking at it from a different perspective will put some peace of mind. Xia Yan's Pokémon has gained the approval of Scizor, which shows that he does indeed have the potential to subdue the 'King'."

The captain of the Kongo Team, Kongshi, remained relatively calm.

Who knows, we might actually win?

This idea, which they had previously considered unrealistic, arose in everyone's mind.

However, it is now clear that the wild Pokémon uprising in Obsidian Plains is indeed related to the 'Forest King' Scizor.

If Xia Yan can defeat the Mantis, perhaps this crisis can be resolved.

Everyone watched the center of the battlefield with a mixture of hope and worry.

Xia Yan had no interest in caring about what these people thought anymore.

because.

Before Beedrill and Scizor even became enemies, their fierce rivalry had become almost tangible.

The battle has begun!

"Sha!"

The Scizor roared, its eyes flashing red, and it strode forward, brandishing its sharp axe, charging straight at the Mega Beedrill.

The giant bee was not to be outdone.

With a tremor of its wings, it shot forward like lightning, a golden arc of light arriving first despite being behind.

The massive, crossed axes and the sharp, intersecting needles collided unexpectedly in the middle of the field.

Bang--!!

The same "cross-cutting" technique, the same attack method.

The aftershocks of the collision knocked down waist-high weeds and blew the nearest wild Pokémon into the inner circle.

The first clash between the two kings put immense pressure on these wild elves.

Almost instinctively, the wild elves retreated, making the circle they had formed even larger.

And at the center.

The long, narrow, scarlet compound eyes of the giant bee stared intently at the fierce eyes of the scythe-like mantis.

Without any probing, the two elves unleashed their strongest power right from the start.

hum-

The giant bee staggered slightly and stumbled backward.

In a contest of pure strength, Mega Beedrill is at a significant disadvantage.

"Xia Yan's Pokémon is very strong," Gang Shi exclaimed.

"But it's still not quite there."

Xingyue was also surprised that Xia Yan had hidden such a powerful spirit.

The result of the first collision was obvious: Beedrill was far weaker than Scizor in terms of strength, otherwise it wouldn't have staggered so obviously.

Pearl Shell pouted, "But it's faster."

Xingyue nodded, not denying it.

The giant Beedrill, which had fallen behind in the fight and been knocked away, hadn't even had time to regain its footing when the Scizor, wielding its massive axe and radiating a savage aura, instantly pounced on it.

A thick layer of rock-based energy enveloped the Scizor's axe.

Rock ax!

Mega Beedrill is very experienced in battles, and it's not the first time it's been in a situation where it's at a disadvantage from the start.

Xia Yan remained calm, and the Super Beedrill was also very calm.

He parried the massive axe that came crashing down with a powerful blow, using his two needles as a shield.

boom--!!

A powerful axe cleaved into the giant Beedrill's two stingers, producing a dull thud as hard rock shattered and scattered across the axe.

Many of them splashed onto the Super Beedrill.

The rocks were sharp, and some even penetrated into the body of the giant beetle.

"Rock Axe" is a move that only Pokémon like Scizor can use. It not only increases the chance of hitting a critical hit, but also puts the opponent into the "Shatter" state, causing the Pokémon to take continuous damage for a period of time.

Super-sized bee baring its teeth.

The feeling of rocks sinking into your body is not pleasant.

the most important is.

Having succeeded in its first attack, the axe-wielding mantis didn't hesitate for a moment and charged again with its axe raised.

It seemed poised to overwhelm Super Beedrill with sheer power and relentless attacks.

Bang--!!

Another axe fell.

Although Mega Beedrill was somewhat prepared this time and was not bothered by the collapsing rocks, the relentless, ever-increasing force of its axe strikes made it difficult for it to defend itself.

"'Rock Axe' combined with 'Combo Slash'? This Scyther is interesting."

Wild Pokémon rarely have combination moves.

Even as the giant Beedrill was clearly at a disadvantage, Xia Yan remained calm.

As it turns out, those who can inherit the legacy of a king are all quite capable.

Moreover, because it has the "Jade Insect Plate" to absorb, Scizor has a more solid foundation compared to other wild Pokémon.

"It is the fierce power of 'mastery of seeds'."

Gang Shidao was among the spectators.

"This is bad, it's already entered the rhythm that the Scizor loves most," someone else said.

The people of Zhuqing Village know the 'King of the Forest,' the Scyther, who lives in the Obsidian Plains of Zhuqing Village best.

They knew the power of the axe-splitting mantis well; if they encountered it in the wild, they had no choice but to avoid it without any protective treasures.

“Be ready to help at any time,” Xingyue said.

Xia Yan's demonstrated abilities have earned their recognition.

Although Mega Beedrill is currently at a disadvantage in its battle against Scizor, it is still only a one-on-one fight.

If Xia Yan can hold it off, perhaps he can wait until Casey finds Ma Jiamu.

Zhu Beibei clenched her teeth, her gaze fixed on Xia Yan.

Xia Yan remained calm and composed, showing no signs of panic.

Although Mega Beedrill was on the defensive, its expression remained unchanged.

They are not worried about the current situation; in fact, they remain very confident.

This is the result obtained from observations of pearl oysters.

After parrying two of the axe-splitting mantis's axes, the third axe, which is also the moment when the "consecutive strikes" are at their most powerful, is ready.

A faint light suddenly flashed in Xia Yan's eyes.

"Now!"

The compound eyes of the super-sized bee also flashed with a sharp light.

The double needles were covered in a thick layer of Bug-type energy, and the two parries were enough for it to get used to Scizor's fighting and attack rhythm.

"Sword Dance!"

Then I saw it.

Dark red energy swirled around the giant Beedrill, and amidst the shadows, sharp swords clanged.

"Too impulsive, using 'Sword Dance' at this time?" Gangshi frowned.

Each group leader and captain grasped the Poké Ball.

"Wait!" Zhubei's eyes widened.

All I saw was...

The ferocious-looking scythe's enormous axe crashed down with fierce force, while the giant bee's form briefly blurred.

Followed by.
