Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

finally.

Milotic, its entire body tense, persevered.

Just as Blastoise's "Water Cannon" disappeared, an even more terrifying jet of water suddenly blasted out of the mirror.

It slammed into Blastoise in an instant, sending it flying and crashing into the cave wall, leaving large cracks and scattered rocks.

Wait until the water has completely receded.

After struggling for a couple of moments, the Blastoise, whose body was mostly covered in toxins, finally gave up and collapsed heavily to the ground.

Blastoise is unable to battle!

Red stared blankly at the Blastoise lying on the ground.

He has experienced defeats in battles before.

For a "fighter," victory and defeat are both normal. He will constantly learn from various battles and improve himself.

But once...

Blastoise's defeat left Red momentarily stumped on how to counter Xia Yan's tactics.

turn out to be.......

You can fight like this?!

turn out to be.......

What he experienced before shouldn't be called a battle, it should be called a chaotic brawl.

turn out to be.......

Such tactics are unbelievable!

Crimson felt as if a door to a new world was slowly opening, beckoning to him.

Is this what tactics are?!

He put away Blastoise and suddenly looked intently at Xia Yan.

This moment.

He finally realized it.

Xia Yan is not only a powerful trainer in his eyes, but also a master!

Tactical master!

Regardless of the previous "passing the baton".

It's still the current "Poison Guardian" and its derivatives.

All of these demonstrated Xia Yan's tactical abilities.

The crimson eyes gave Xia Yan a bit of a creep.

What happened?

Could it be that the "poison defense substitution" tactic was too disgusting and angered the "fighter"?

Crimson remained silent.

He simply looked at Pikachu on his shoulder.

"Pickup!"

Pikachu nodded vigorously, then leaped down and jumped into the arena.

His expression was serious.

It had observed Mina and Blastoise's tactics.

This opponent is not only powerful but also adept at clever tactics, so we must be careful.

But Pikachu could also clearly sense Red's excitement and agitation.

This is the mindset that only appears when facing a very formidable opponent.

prior to.

Pikachu has only ever experienced this when it is red against green.

just now.

Pikachu once again sensed this seriousness and earnestness from Red.

and so.

Even though its opponent this time is a Water-type Pokémon that it is weak to, and even though it has been injured before, Pikachu cannot let its guard down.

Crimson struggled to control her agitated emotions.

He had already come to regard Xia Yan as an opponent whose strength was comparable to that of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Even if the opponent doesn't send out their main Pokémon.

But it is precisely because of this that he can learn more.

“Mr. Xia Yan, please don’t hold back. I can sense that your tactics are more than just this,” Crimson said.

You can sense the change in Chi Hong's attitude towards Xia Yan just from how she addresses him.

Upon hearing this, Xia Yan raised an eyebrow.

That's his personality.

She does resemble Watari quite a bit.

They are the type of people who become stronger with each setback, and can unleash even greater power when facing stronger opponents.

And the bright red Pikachu...

Xia Yan nodded solemnly.

"it is good."

Since Crimson has such a strong ability to accept things, Xia Yan can rest assured.

The second round of matches continues.

Xia Yan did not choose to replace the spirit.

"Milotic, highly poisonous!"

"Pikachu, Quick Attack!"

Xia Yan still chose to start with "highly poisonous".

Red opted for a fast-paced attack, which is also in line with the characteristics of Pikachu.

Then I saw it.

The electric mouse Pikachu sprinted across the ground, leaving behind a zigzag trail, and in the blink of an eye, it rushed to Milotic's side.

"100,000 volts!"

Close the distance to increase the hit rate of your moves, and Crimson strikes decisively.

Milotic didn't impulsively release its poison while Pikachu was running. Instead, it waited until Pikachu appeared in front of it and launched its attack before finally pinpointing its location.

"Pikachu!!"

A golden light flashed, and countless bolts of lightning enveloped Pikachu's entire body. The flowing, fine currents converged into a golden beam of light, striking Milotic head-on.

sizzle-

The intense electric light undoubtedly struck Milotic, causing it immense damage.

But at the same time.

Milotic's "Poison" also hit Pikachu at such close range, causing it to fall into the "Poison" state.

Crimson had anticipated Xia Yan's move.

Therefore, he did not hesitate at all, nor did he hold anything back.

I chose Pikachu because I hoped it could overpower Milotic and defeat it instantly.

"Pikachu, one more time, Thunderbolt!"

Despite the pain caused by the toxins, Pikachu didn't hesitate to activate the electric current again.

It has feelings.

Milotic will collapse after being hit by another 100,000 volts.

His crimson eyes were fixed on Pikachu and Milotic, and his intuition told him that Xia Yan's tactic should be more than just that.

really.

Xia Yan's voice remained calm and steady, his gentle tone showing no sign of panic, displaying the demeanor of a "master".

"Self-regeneration".

Milotic squinted, enduring the pain from the electric current. Blue patterns appeared on its body, and the pain and exhaustion were recovered in the blink of an eye.

Pikachu's Thunderbolt landed again, but it didn't have the desired effect.

next second.

Xia Yan seized the initiative and commanded, "Milanos, use hypnosis."

Poison, Protect, Substitute, Mirror Image, Hypnosis...

this......

Crimson was dumbfounded.

In other words.

Milotic relies entirely on its poison ability to deal damage, right?

But the key point is...

Even with just one "poison," Crimson constantly doubted the combat skills she had learned.

It's not that crimson isn't strong.
