Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

The already extremely hot environment was further amplified by this energy, creating a powerful blizzard.

During "hail" weather, the "blizzard" move gains a weather boost, making its hit rate 100%!

This is why Liu Bo's "Frozen World" move must incorporate the most difficult-to-control and most difficult-to-manage "blizzard".

Cynthia's Glaceon, unlike Xia Yan's Ninetales, did not learn this move from Liu Bo.

However, he had received some guidance from Uncle Liu, and the "blizzard" was extremely powerful.

Xia Yan's face was serious, and his voice was stern.

"Bear it, sword dance!"

Clang!

The Shielded Swordsman's silk ribbons pattered against its shield, showing no fear in the face of the vast snowstorm and the increasingly low visibility.

The surging ice and snow covered it with a thick layer in the blink of an eye.

only.

Aegislash's body is entirely made of metal, so it has a high tolerance for cold.

With the added protection of the "Aurora Curtain" left behind by Nine-Tailed Fox, the damage from "Blizzard" was well within Aegislash's tolerance range.

All of this gives the Aegislash the confidence to strengthen itself!

Amidst the blanket of ice and snow, clanging sounds emanated from the Aegislash, as dark red sword formations carried waves of energy. As the Aegislash's aura intensified, the snow covering it melted away.

Cynthia frowned.

"Gladiator, Shadow Ball!"

But no matter what.

The Aegislash's weakness of low stamina is something that cannot be overcome.

A jet-black energy ball instantly condensed and shot out from the hazy flying snow.

Having switched to its sword-wielding form, the Shield Sword Monster dares not recklessly take attacks anymore.

"Shadow attack."

Fortunately, Xia Yan's voice rang out in time, accurately judging the situation so that Eevee's Shadow Ball was about to hit Aegislash, causing it to disappear into the shadows.

They quickly broke through layers of snow and wind, and located Glaceon's position.

"Dig a hole."

Cynthia's voice was also calm, giving Glaceon the same sense of peace.

When Aegislash arrived at the location where Glaceon had been, Glaceon had already disappeared from the ground.

"Aegislash, Gyro Ball."

Instead of rashly letting the Aegislash's shadow slip into the cave, they gave it another instruction.

Seeing this, Cynthia frowned imperceptibly.

Aegislash's failure to pursue deprived Glaceon of a golden opportunity to attack.

hum-

Without any doubt or hesitation, the Shielded Sword Monster immediately began to spin rapidly on the spot, accompanied by the unpleasant sound of its sword tip scraping against the ground.

The airflow generated by the rotation caused a storm to rise throughout the venue, stirring up wind and snow.

The "spinning top ball" move is both offensive and defensive, making it very practical.

just.

slowly.

Xia Yan and the Shielded Sword Monster realized that something was wrong.

Why hasn't Ice Eevee, which burrowed underground, reappeared after so long?

It neither attacked nor made any other moves.

But only for a moment, Xia Yan suddenly realized.

Cynthia is stalling for time!

Whether it's "Aurora Curtain" or "Mystic Guardian," Cynthia hopes to minimize the duration of these two continuous status moves.

otherwise.

The shorter the time it takes for Aegislash and Glaceon to fight.

Her subsequent matches became increasingly difficult.

What a meticulous woman... Xia Yan thought to himself.

but it does not matter.

If you don't come out, then we'll force you to come out!

"Sword Dance!"

Abandon "Spinning Top Ball" and use "Sword Dance" again.

Now.

Even if Cynthia manages to prolong the duration of both status moves, a fully stacked Aegislash would still be quite terrifying.

as predicted.

Just as the sharp clang of the sword array was about to resound from the Shielded Sword Monster once more, the ground trembled slightly.

"Shadowball!"

"King's Shield!"

Cynthia and Xia Yan's voices rang out almost simultaneously.

"Buyi!!"

The Ice Eevee bursts forth from beneath Aegislash's feet, carrying Ground-type energy, and spews out another Shadow Ball.

but.

The Aegislash is also very fast.

Facing Glaceon, it immediately switched to Shield Mode, its hard, shiny shield blocking Glaceon's attack.

Accurate prediction!

Clang!

After completely blocking Glaceon's "Dig" and "Shadow Ball" from underground, Aegislash quickly switched back to its sword form.

next second.

A massive, pale blue sword shadow appeared with overwhelming force atop Eevee's head.

Holy Sword!

A series of consecutive kills!

boom! !

Snowflakes flew everywhere, and the Ice Eevee, which was quickly knocked down, created a huge crater in the ground, splashing up the accumulated snow on the ground.

Cynthia's expression darkened.

"The final freezing beam!"

Amidst the swirling snowflakes, Glaceon's voice, strained by pain, rang out once more.

"Buyi—!!"

Along with it came the extremely cold, azure beam of light.

But faced with this "freezing beam," Aegislash once again swung its greatsword.

Holy Sword Slash!

This is the second sword strike.

boom!!!

The azure beam of frozen light was cleaved in two by the pale blue sword shadow, with only a few wisps of icy air scattering across the Shielded Sword Monster's body.

But after that sword strike, Cynthia and Glaceon made no further move.

because.

Glaceon is unable to battle!

The Shielded Sword Monster exhaled a long puff of white mist.

If it weren't for the fact that "Holy Sword" can ignore evasion rate, it might have missed several attacks against Glaceon with the "Snow Cloak" ability.

Xia Yan chose to send out Aegislash because he valued its skillful "Holy Sword Combo" move, which could perfectly counter Glaceon.

Cynthia took a shallow breath.

Recall Glaceon.

"You did a great job."

Then he looked intently at Xia Yan and the Shielded Sword Monster who was still on the field.

After a brief pause, she threw out her third Poké Ball.

It appeared.

It is a strangely shaped, ancient wedge-shaped stone with a large crack in the middle.

As the wedge stone touched the ground, a strange and eerie gas floated out from the crack and quickly condensed into shape.

Outline shapes such as eyes and mouth appeared.

Immediately following was an overwhelming sense of oppression.

Flower Rock Monster!

A legendary Pokémon whose special abilities far surpass its actual strength.
