Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Sylveon also completely "inherited" its speed.

The timing was impeccable, down to the last detail.

If Sylveon is even slightly slower, it will be instantly killed by Turtonator.

"Is this... the rhythm and adaptability of a champion at the 'tactical master' level?" Cibana thought to himself with admiration.

He was certain.

Xia Yan did not initially plan his tactics this way; he changed his tactics on the spot after seeing the Blazing Turtlemon "hatch".

But even if it's just a matter of improvisation.

Sylveon was able to understand Xia Yan's tactical direction and objectives immediately.

Furthermore, they also demonstrate such a high degree of control over timing in their performance on the spot.

These ones.

All of this made Cibana admire them.

So, what's next...?

Cibana narrowed his eyes, his expression becoming increasingly serious.

No matter what Pokémon is switched out next, it will inevitably inherit the debuff of reduced physical and special defense, giving Turtonator a chance to KO the opponent!

Xia Yan did not keep Qibana waiting for long.

When Sylveon returned, he was already holding a Poké Ball in his hand.

Throw it out.

It drew a smooth arc in the air.

All eyes were fixed on the Poké Ball.

What kind of spirit will be summoned?

Kibana gave BlastTurtlemon a look, and BlastTurtlemon immediately understood.

I took a deep breath.

A strong sulfurous odor spread and intensified, while flames surged and accumulated within the abdominal cavity.

click -

The Poké Ball opened, flashing red light.

"Awooo—"

Nine snow-white, crystal-clear tails waved in an instant, surrounded by twinkling, sparkling lights.

An ice-smoked nine-tailed fox?!

Everyone was stunned when they saw the spirit that Xia Yan had summoned.

although.

Ninetales is a Fairy-type Pokémon and can also gain the "Mist" field buff.

But... Ice-type Pokémon are weak to Fire-type Pokémon, isn't this just handing them a free lunch?

"Blazing Turtlemon, Flamethrower!"

Kibana didn't care about anything else and launched an attack the moment he saw the Pokémon appear.

Ok?

The Blazing Turtle Beast suddenly shuddered.

Don't know why.

It actually feels a little cold?

However, it couldn't care less about all that at the moment and immediately spat out a mouthful of blazing flame.

It could clearly sense it.

It wasn't very satisfied the moment the flames were released.

It's like... the temperature of the flames isn't as high as expected.

"Snow! It's snowflakes!"

"The 'sunny day' has disappeared!"

"So, Xia Yan used Ice Nine-Tails to counter Qi Bana's weather-based attacks?"

"But even without the blessing of 'Sunny Day,' with the current explosive power of Blazing Turtlemon, even Nine-Tails wouldn't be able to stop it, right?"

"..."

While the audience was suddenly enlightened, even more questions arose.

The Nine-Tails makes its appearance.

The raging flames hanging high in the sky have vanished.

It's not just disappearing.

The hail, mixed with the thick, fluffy snow, covered the entire area in an instant.

This caused the temperature inside the arena to drop drastically.

The audience, who were feeling the heat just a second ago, suddenly shivered.

Is it so cold?

"Extreme Cold Beam!"

"Awoo!!"

Faced with the flames spewed by the Blazing Turtle Beast, Nine-Tailed Fox neither dodged nor evaded, but instead directly clashed the flames with its ice breath.

the most important is.

Looking at the point where the two completely opposite energies of flame and ice converge, amidst the rising thick white mist, the Nine-Tails was not at a disadvantage.

"Holy crap, it seems the Nine-Tails is still stronger, it's actually gained the upper hand?"

"What a powerful ice-type move!"

"Ice-type's weakness against fire-type was neutralized by just one weather difference, and even reversed?"

"No! It's because Xia Yan's Nine-Tails is stronger, and the moves it used are not the moves we are familiar with. It should be... a combination move."

"..."

The audience was stunned.

What kind of ice-type move is that? It's so powerful!

Cibana was also somewhat incredulous.

Xia Yan grinned.

With a wave of his hand.

"Nine-Tails, freeze the world!"

"Awoo!!"

With a clear, long cry from the Nine-Tailed Fox, the already surging hail became even more rampant, and the extreme cold caused the Blazing Turtle Beast to shiver once again.

Why is it so cold?!

then.

The Blazing Turtle Beast saw it.

The scattered snowflakes, upon touching its body, emitted an intense chill, threatening to cover it with a layer of ice.

Seeing this, the Blazing Turtle Beast had no choice but to unleash the sulfur flames within its body.

The flames that spread throughout his body melted the frost.

just.

It's just a snowflake!

To know.

The entire venue.

But there is an endless ocean of snowflakes!

Snowflakes, one after another, flocked towards it.

The ever-spreading frost was melted each time by the flames of the Blazing Turtle Beast.

but.

This also continuously depleted the Blazing Turtle Beast's stamina and energy.

Until... when it felt a bone-chilling cold completely envelop and surround it...

The audience could no longer see what was happening inside the stadium.

The dense snowflakes, mixed with huge chunks of ice, completely blocked their view.

Even with so many high-precision cameras inside the arena, they couldn't capture the situation inside clearly at this moment.

All you can see is [the screen].

Everything within sight was covered by a vast expanse of white.

What kind of blizzard is this?

As the thick ice and snow gradually thinned, the audience was finally able to see the scene inside the stadium clearly...

Whoosh—!

An uproar, as if contagious, instantly resounded throughout the entire arena.

What kind of international joke is this?!

All I saw was...
