Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Farfetch'd grabbed the hilt of the Holy Sword before it had fully landed after slicing through Mega Salamence.

Later, the audience also saw this clearly through the slow-motion playback on the big screen.

In that instant.

It gives the impression that the Holy Sword and Holy Shield were used one after the other, only to be sheathed at the same time.

Coupled with the final, forced pose by Cong Youbing, the visual impact... really gave me goosebumps.

Many viewers kept rubbing their arms and grimacing.

Followed by.

boom--

As Mega Salamence fell, the energy from its Mega Evolution quietly dissipated, and it reverted back to Salamence, crashing heavily to the ground.

Incapacitated!

Instant kill?!

wow——

This is cheating? Bah! This is the true strength of the number one young person?

Genji's expression froze for a moment.

He felt that his command and judgment, as well as the attack choices of the Mega Salamence, were flawless.

But the result was still the same.

This can only prove one thing.

The hanger is too big.

No, Xia Yan's true strength has completely surpassed that of him and his Pokémon.

After a brief moment of surprise and disorientation.

Seeing the Onion Soldiers still striking poses, Genji suddenly burst into laughter again.

"I'm relieved."

Are you relieved now?

Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, then slowly came to his senses.

He nodded solemnly to Genji.

This nod represented not only him, but also his friends.

Lance, Lorelei, Steven, Cynthia, and others like Red and Blue.

Genji recalled his Salamence, pursed his lips, adjusted his hat, and looked at the referee.

He grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth.

"I concede."

Ok?

The referee was also taken aback.

But Genji's attitude seemed extremely firm.

In fact, there was really no need to continue fighting.

After all, even his ace Mega Salamence was instantly defeated.

And... that pose of Onion Warrior must have been quite tiring to maintain, right?

Having understood Genji's meaning, the referee lowered both flags and solemnly announced:

"I hereby announce that Xia Yan has won this round and has successfully advanced to the top 16!"

"

"Let's thank both players for the exciting match they brought us!"

Chapter 244 You call it the White Speed ​​Dog?

The knockout stage of the World Championship, round of 32 to 16, has officially concluded.

The list of those who advanced to the round of 16 was also published directly on the league's official website.

With just one more step, he could successfully obtain the title of "Eight Masters".

The exciting matches in the first round made the World Championship a hot topic of global attention.

Even people who don't care much about trainer battles will inevitably hear discussions about tournaments wherever they go.

The first round of the tournament was being played constantly in every corner of the world.

It is precisely under such popularity that...

The contestants who successfully advanced to the top 16 began the real battle for the "Eight Masters" amidst great anticipation.

"To the audience, thank you for waiting! Next, we will begin our real 'Eight Masters' tournament."

The host's enthusiastic cheers echoed throughout the vast arena.

Under the eager gaze of the audience, the second round of the elimination tournament officially began amidst a deafening roar of cheers.

"First of all, the first match will be between our Johto champion, Miyu Wataru, and our Battle Frontier leader, Kamishiro!"

The cheers were deafening, and screams rose and fell.

In the contestant passages on both sides.

The red-haired youth, his cloak fluttering in the wind, waved his hand and flashed his white teeth.

On the other side...

Even the usually serious and earnest Kamishiro had a faint smile on his face at this moment.

A battle between the champion and the leader of the frontier.

This is not just a world championship; to some extent, it also represents a battle between the two major systems of the league.

Wataru can represent the league champion, and Kamishiro is fully qualified to represent every leader of the Battle Frontier.

"Not being able to play against Mr. Kamishiro at the last Masters Tournament has always been a major regret of mine," Wataru said earnestly, no longer fiddling with his cloak.

Kamishiro nodded slightly. "If you want to go any further, you'd better go all out."

A brief pre-match discussion.

As the referee lowered the flag, a voice announced, "Battle begins."

The competition for the "Eight Masters" officially began at this moment.

"Go, Registeel!" Shimajiro threw the Poké Ball in his hand.

"Reggie—"

With a flash of red light, Registeel, the "Steel God Pillar," made a powerful entrance, crushing and shattering numerous rock cones in the "Rock Field."

As a Steel-type legendary Pokémon, Registeel is quite effective against Lance's Dragon-type and Flying-type Pokémon.

It's a pretty good and suitable starting Pokémon.

It was clear that Du's smile had deepened even further.

He guessed the choice of the first elf in the world of gods.

"Please, my partner, Charizard! Use Heat Wave!"

Roar--

Lance's starter Pokémon, Charizard, turned what should have been an advantage for Registeel, the first Pokémon in Age of Gods, into a disadvantage.

This is one of the fun aspects of the six-choose-four battle: selecting your starting Pokémon based on the Pokémon your opponent displays.

The choice of starting move can have a significant impact on the overall course of the battle.

However, if the Gods choose to replace the spirits at this point, it will undoubtedly become even more disadvantageous.

The battle between Wataru and Kamishiro went straight into a fierce contest from the very beginning.

"Mr. Kamishiro's Pokémon don't really need to be guessed. The three legendary Pokémon are his signature, so you only need to guess their general order of appearance. Mr. Wataru has a great advantage in this regard."

Inside the private box, Crimson watched the battle unfold closely.

"Don't underestimate these top veteran trainers," Xia Yan said with a smile.

"Ok?"

Chi Hong looked at Xia Yan with a hint of doubt.

"Xia Yan probably meant that seeing Charizard appear earlier would give Mr. Kamishiro's 'Ice Regiment' Regice more room to maneuver and more possibilities for countering it, right?"

Cynthia made some guesses about what Xia Yan said.

"Ice Pillar" Regice?

Crimson gently rubbed her chin.

"Mr. Wataru's Pokémon are mostly four times weak to Ice-type moves, and while Steel-type Registeel can resist Dragon-type moves, it is definitely not as threatening as Ice-type Pokémon. Mr. Kamishiro is deliberately using Registeel as bait to lure Charizard into battle."

Qinglu chimed in as well.

When talking about how Ice-type is effective against Lance, he subconsciously glanced at Lorelei sitting on the sofa next to him.

In terms of tactical understanding and interpretation of combat, even three or four Reds couldn't match Green.

"This is... my prediction that you predicted?"

Akin, who had already been eliminated, suddenly reappeared.

"So, it seems that Mr. Watari anticipated Mr. Kamishiro's first move, but in reality, it was a trap that Mr. Kamishiro deliberately set for Mr. Watari?"

Crimson gradually came to her senses.

"Not necessarily," Daigo said with a smile.

"why?"
