Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Anger welled up inside me.

Violence!!

With a long cry, it finally broke through the clouds and snow and appeared before Xia Yan and Shirona.

Articuno!

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Stupid Woman!

Articuno!

Its beautiful blue feathers, as clear as ice crystal prisms, are particularly striking, with three deep blue prismatic feathers forming its crest. It has deep red eyes, a short, gray beak, slender legs of the same color, and a long, thin, ice-blue tail that trails behind it like a colorful flag, even longer than the Articuno's body.

With each flap of its wings, powdery ice crystals appeared, refracting the sunlight and creating a dazzling spectacle.

This legendary bird spirit has finally come into view.

Articuno is probably the best-looking of the three legendary birds.

However, for Xia Yan and Xiluona now, being good-looking is no longer the main point.

Far away.

Articuno's imposing presence put immense pressure on Xia Yan and Cynthia's Pokémon.

Characteristic: A sense of oppression!

Violence!!

When Articuno saw the group of "despicable" thieves approaching its nest, it immediately unleashed a beam of icy blue light as a "greeting gift."

As this beam of icy light pierced through the void, the air seemed to freeze in its path, with ice crystals and snowflakes spreading along its way.

Xia Yan's expression darkened again when he saw Articuno's freezing beam.

Very strong!

Such an attack is too much for my few Pokémon to withstand.

Of Xia Yan's four main Pokémon, Kadabra is the best at defending against special attacks.

For Yunjira's fragile body to think it could withstand this attack was nothing short of a pipe dream.

"Flower Rock Monster, a wondrous space!"

Just then, Cynthia's voice came through.

Mysterious Space: Creates a magical special space that swaps the physical defense and special defense of the Pokémon residing within it.

This move wasn't used on all Pokémon; it only enveloped the Twin Blades Sheath. The Twin Blades Sheath's prized physical defense was successfully swapped with its own special defense.

The dual scabbards have the best physical defense of all its abilities, but its special defense is quite worrying.

With the help of "Mysterious Space", its special defense is immediately maximized.

Cynthia nodded to Xia Yan and then continued to give instructions.

"Poison Rose, hold on!"

The petite Poison Rose stood at the very front of the freezing beam of light.

A light blue energy ring appeared around its body, seemingly capable of isolating it from all attacks.

however.

When Articuno's Ice Beam struck Roselia, the protective energy shield around its body shattered in less than two seconds.

Cynthia's expression changed slightly.

"Yongjira, switch sides."

Just then, Xia Yan's voice rang out at the perfect moment, switching places with the Poison Rose before its protection was completely shattered.

"Chocolate!"

Togekiss raised its hand, radiating light as it beckoned, attracting Articuno's attention. The Ice Beam followed its gaze and changed direction.

Look at me!

Clang!

The twin scabbards were placed horizontally in front of Tokkigu, the two swords crossed in front of him, ready to take the blow.

Despite its eyes being full of worry and fear, its body remained as solid as a reliable metal wall, showing no intention of moving or dodging.

Being afraid in your heart has nothing to do with your body.

However, the Twin Blades didn't get to see Articuno's Ice Beam, because Cynthia's Lucario and Garchomp appeared in front of it at the same time, their green Guardian Energy Shield being their greatest source of confidence.

Click! Click!

However, it is clear that Roselia's Guardian move cannot completely resist Articuno's Ice Beam, and Lucario and Garchomp are ultimately just a little short of being able to withstand it.

The protective energy shield shattered one after another.

The only good news is that after these repeated defenses, Articuno's Ice Beam has been significantly weakened.

"sigh!"

coming!

What was bound to happen would happen eventually; the longsword rested on two scabbards.

"The Holy Sword!"

Xia Yan's voice reached its ears.

If we're going to fight head-on, then let's attack each other!

"sigh!"

The double-sheathed sword's eyes narrowed, and a huge blue phantom enveloped its blades. At this moment, the two holy swords were used simultaneously.

The pressure from Articuno once again brought out a potential that even the Twin Blades themselves were unaware of.

ka ka ka-

The phantom of the Holy Sword clashed head-on with Articuno's freezing beam, and as a result, even the phantom of the Holy Sword began to freeze.

This terrifyingly low temperature can freeze everything!

"Hiss!!"

Suddenly.

A golden arc of light shot out like lightning in front of the double-sword sheath the instant the holy sword phantom shattered. The cross-shaped cyan energy impact shattered the freezing beam along with the holy sword phantom of the double-sword sheath!

hum-

They've arrived.

It's a Beedrill, of course!

Changshan Zhao Zifeng himself!

With a gentle tremor of its electrified wings, tiny specks of crystalline dust drifted slowly down from the air, refracting the electric light and making the Beedrill stand out dazzlingly.

"sigh--"

“Cha-ke-yi—”

The twin scabbards and Togekiss behind them stared at Beedrill's retreating figure, their eyes sparkling.

So cool!

Thanks to the combined efforts of Xia Yan, Cynthia, and all the Pokémon, Articuno's Ice Beam was finally blocked.

It was just one attack, yet it took almost all of their strength.

Cynthia's Roselia, Lucario, and Garchomp all used their Protect moves to survive.

Although it can be used again later, the effect will naturally not be as good as the first time.

And this was only the attack before Articuno got close.

Once Articuno gets close enough to them, they probably won't even have a chance to defend themselves.

The difference in strength is huge!

Violence!!

Articuno saw that its attack had been blocked by the ground, and a hint of surprise flashed in its angry eyes.

Blocking, huh?

Let's see how many times you can block them!

The freezing beam, which had accumulated for an even longer time than before, struck again, instantly condensing into ice flowers in the air, as if they were etched on a mirror.

Xia Yan and Xiluona exchanged a glance.

They both gleaned the expected information from each other's eyes.

This time, we can't stop it!

"You'd better leave now!" Cynthia hissed, her brow furrowed.

Lucario, Garchomp, Roselia, and Floolum stood side by side in front of her and Xia Yan, trying to buy Xia Yan time to leave.

Seeing this, Xia Yan couldn't help but shake his head.

"Stupid woman."

Because the sound wasn't suppressed very well, Cynthia heard it.

Just as she looked at Xia Yan with surprise, she saw another Poké Ball appear in Xia Yan's hand.

"An army is raised for a thousand days to be used for one day. After eating so much food for so long, it's time for them to get out and move around."

As he spoke, he threw the Poké Ball in his hand.

In the red light, a colossal object, like a wall, appeared at the very front.

boom!!

The commotion from his slump on the ground made the ground tremble twice.
