Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Gengar shook its hand, staring intently at the hole in the rock wall that had been melted by the flames.

"Come out!"

Seeing the power of the flame, Tamechi was filled with excitement, the ring on his hand flashed, and the elf behind the rock wall finally emerged, revealing its true form.

Thump—thump—

The heavy footsteps seemed to carry intense heat, and with each step, the ground beneath the soles hissed, leaving deep footprints and accompanied by flickering black flames.

call--

With a flap of its wings, it stirred up scorching waves of fire that swept across the entire cave.

Its tail swung, shattering the rock wall that had trapped it for so long.

"Roar!!!"

A loud roar, mixed with tyranny, ferocity, cruelty, and a hint of relief.

When Xia Yan saw what the elf looked like, his pupils shrank to the size of pinholes.

The ability to think was completely lost, and words were blurted out...

Holy crap!

Chapter Ninety-One Flashbang

It was completely black.

A proud dragon head, crimson eyes, strong limbs, powerful and enormous wings, and a robust tail thicker than a thigh.

At the end of its tail, a ball of dark blue, almost black flame burned quietly.

This elf is actually...

Charizard!

More accurately, a flashy Charizard!!

The flames it spews out are somewhat similar in color to the flames of Mega Charizard X, only much deeper.

The temperature and destructive power of the flames are also terrifying.

This shiny Charizard had received so much "life essence" that it was already incredibly powerful.

Furthermore, the "Blazing Energy Cube" made from so many Dragonfire Fruits and condensed to the extreme has a terrifying special attack and burst power in a short period of time.

Only by summoning the Ghost Legion can Kikuko contend with them.

Tamechi actually managed to create a truly remarkable elf.

"King Kikuko, help me test its strength." Tamechi put away the madness on his face, patted his shoulder, and bowed gracefully.

Then, the black gem on his index finger flashed, and the jet-black, sparkling fire-breathing dragon moved.

It flapped its wings twice and took off.

Its mouth was clenched tightly, and wisps of black flame seeped out from between its teeth.

Flame jet!

A burst of scorching black flames erupted, and the rising hot air caused the rock layers above the cave to slowly melt.

The glowing moss covering the entire cave instantly dried up.

With a sullen face, Kikuko threw out three more Poké Balls, followed by the appearance of Zubat, Weezing, and Muk, which joined the collision.

Faced with the pressure from the shiny Charizard, Akiko is about to get serious.

The two Weezing and Muk simultaneously launched dark purple mud, attempting to reduce the threat posed by the Shiny Charizard with a mud attack.

Gengar led its Ghost Army in a dense circle, surrounding the Shiny Charizard, while Zubat hovered high in the sky, constantly spewing out extremely high-frequency sound waves from its mouth.

the other side.

Arbok crawled swiftly on the ground, its strangely twisted serpentine markings shifting and changing. Its speed and strength varied as it undulated and crept towards Tamechi on the high platform.

The dream demon's eyes flashed, and it vanished into the shadows, launching a surprise attack.

Xia Yan, hiding in the corner, squinted his eyes.

Both he and Kikuko realized that the black gem on Tamechi's index finger was controlling the shimmering Charizard.

The flashy Charizard might not be easy to defeat in a short time, but if you take out Tamechi's control first, it will be relatively simpler.

Tamechi, having realized Kikuko's intentions, was naturally not going to sit idly by and wait for his doom.

He kept throwing out Poké Balls.

Four more spirits appeared in the red light.

The Great Hound, a Dark-type Pokémon with a fierce appearance and long black fur.

Camerupt is a Fire-type and Ground-type Pokémon that carries a chimney and spews out smoke.

A poison-type Poison Pokémon with a serpentine body covered in yellow spots.

And the Devourer, a poison-type Poison Pokémon with a blank expression, spitting out purple bubbles.

With the addition of the previously appeared Chandelure and Nightshade, Tamechi's six strongest Pokémon have now appeared.

Kikuko was operating on two fronts: on one hand, she commanded and restrained the Flash Charizard, and on the other hand, she tried her best to defeat Tamechi.

Battle is imminent.

"Arbok, Power Serpent, Ice Fang!"

Arbok launched the first attack, its serpentine belly undulating, its power surging, and it shot out like an arrow, its target the large wolfhound standing at the front.

Xia Yan followed Arbok's movement and saw that just as Arbok was about to make contact with Mightyena, Mightyena neither dodged nor evaded, but raised its forelegs and stomped hard on the ground.

Meanwhile, Dusknoir and Chandelure also set their sights on Arbok, unleashing a flurry of ghostly blue flames.

Even if Arbok is incredibly strong, it would be difficult for it to withstand repeated attacks when facing multiple opponents.

Tamechi was clearly using the Great Hound as bait, attempting to trade one for one with Arbok.

But next second.

puff!

A demonic, ghostly figure appeared in the shadow of the wandering night spirit.

The massive damage from the Phantom Assault and the Ghost-type's advantage over Ghost-type caused the heavily wounded Dusknoir's crimson eyes to go out instantly, and it collapsed to the ground, unable to fight.

On the other side, Arbok's charge towards the Great Hound came to an abrupt halt.

The snake pattern changed instantly, and its speed increased dramatically as it snaked around, avoiding the giant wolfhound's heavy stomp and the will-o'-the-wisp of the crystal chandelier spirit.

It changed direction and darted toward the ghostly lights floating in the air.

His sharp teeth, gleaming with cold frost, opened and closed.

When it opens again, the Crushing Bite move has already been fully charged.

Before Arbok could attack Lidgment, Camel, guarding Tamech's side, stomped the ground, and the power of the earth condensed into a spear, which suddenly thrust out in front of Lidgment.

Fortunately, Arbok was on guard and was very fast. As the spear appeared, its smooth scales rubbed against Arbok, and sparks flew as they clung to the spear.

A brief encounter.

Although Tamechi managed to thwart Arbok's attack, Misdreavus seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack and eliminate Dusknoir.

With two against six, Kikuko still holds the advantage.

"This is the combat power of the Four Heavenly Kings."

Tamechi's strength is definitely not weak.

Although it's not as good as Kikuko's visual skills, it's possible to restrain or even fight against Tom Ruchi, who was originally one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

They are at least at the near-elite level or even the elite level.

However, the Heavenly King level and the Four Heavenly Kings are two different concepts.

The former refers to a symbol of strength, while the latter represents a professional title.

The Elite Four are undoubtedly Elite-level trainers or even stronger, but not every Elite-level trainer can be called an Elite Four member.

Each Elite Four level trainer's Pokémon is undoubtedly strong, but what truly stands out is the core of their team composition during all-out battles.

Just like Agatha's Gengar, Lucius's Swamp Pig, or even Tom Rukki's Mr. Mime.

These Pokémon may or may not be the strongest in the team, but they are definitely the core of the entire team in battle.

Like the sandstorm specialist in the sandstorm team and the rain specialist in the rain team.

Elite-level trainers need to have at least one core.

More powerful ones, like Agatha Christie, have two Koffings besides Gengar, and Psylocke has Delibird besides Mamoswine, thus having a second core.

The other spirits are paired up around these core elements, each taking on different roles.

For example, Ekans is a strong attacker in Agatha Christie's team, Mismagius is a surprise attacker and finisher, Zubat is responsible for control, and Grimer is used in conjunction with Koffing to control the field with poison.

Everyone should perform their duties; that's what a team should be like.

For example, Tom Ruggieri's Mr. Mime may not be particularly strong, but its support role runs through the entire team, serving to connect and amplify their abilities.

On the other hand, Tamechi's Pokémon are all quite strong, but he doesn't have a clear core.

This means that even if Kikuko only sends two Pokémon, she can still wreak havoc on his team with sheer strength.

The momentary defeat of the Wandering Night Spirit is the best proof of this.

Tamechi clearly realized this as well, leaving only Camel to protect himself, and sending Devourer to fight against Agatha's two Pokémon.

By pairing them up, they managed to barely maintain the stalemate.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Shiny Charizard and Agatha's four Pokémon were also locked in a stalemate.

In fact, when Kikuko sent two of her strongest offensive Pokémon to deal with Tameki, this stalemate was inevitable.

However, Kikuko is not in a hurry. Uncle Liu will be here soon. With the two Heavenly Kings working together, it will not be difficult to defeat the opponent.

The key is to find and identify the root cause of the biggest crisis in Golden City.
