Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

I reckon he'll come after Xia Yan once he's dealt with the Noisy Dragon here.

In the dense forest and vast alternate dimension, Atuo's ninja and poison abilities will be maximized.

Xia Yan didn't want to have to be on guard against someone who might appear at any moment, even while eating, because that would be too troublesome and too dangerous.

“I prefer to resolve troublesome matters on the same day, to avoid complications later,” Xia Yan said.

His words meant that he had seen through Atuo's intentions.

Rather than waiting for him to find opportunities to assassinate me later, it's better to bury him here.

The greatest advantage of a ninja is that they operate in the shadows.

If a ninja starts attacking head-on, then he can no longer be considered a ninja.

This small cave was clearly the best place for Atuo to be buried; Xia Yan's thinking was quite clear.

The twin sword sheaths slowly retreated to Xia Yan's side, and the elves all got into fighting stances.

Atuo was so angry at Xia Yan's words that he laughed.

"I was actually willing to let you off the hook, but you insisted on walking into the line of fire..."

As he spoke, his hand swept across his waist, and several red lights flashed, as poison-type Poison Pokémon appeared beside him.

Oh, and a non-poison-type Pokémon has also randomly appeared.

Mongoose Slash!

Among the five Poison-type Pokémon—Gengar, Weezing, Ariados, Zubat, and Arbok—a Zangoose also unexpectedly appeared.

However, Xia Yan dared not underestimate this Mongoose Slash.

If he remembered correctly, the Zangoose Pokémon should have one of the following characteristics...

"Chop!!"

As soon as Atuo's Pokémon appeared, Arbok suddenly sprang up and bit Zangieggle hard on the shoulder.

"Chocolate!"

Togekiss was taken aback by Arbok's behavior, and shrank back, looking at Xia Yan pointing at the Zangoose Slash opposite them.

'There's been infighting!'

When Arbok bit it, the Zangoose's fur stood on end, its eyes gradually turned red, and it let out a series of low growls.

Even from its open mouth, saliva dripped slowly, making a hissing sound as it fell to the ground.

Xia Yan grabbed Pokkigu's head and said in a deep voice, "A sudden surge in poisoning?"

A-Tuo glanced at Xia Yan with some surprise.

"You seem to know quite a lot; are you from an academic background?"

Xia Yan did not answer his question, but slowly frowned as he looked at the Zangoose, his eyes seemingly lacking the agility that a Pokémon should have, apart from madness.

The saliva dripping from its mouth was also rich in toxins, so it's not hard to see that this was probably not the first time it had been bitten by Arbok.

Poison Rush is a hidden ability unique to the Zangoose Pokémon.

Poison Boost: When a Pokémon with this ability is poisoned, its attack power will be greatly increased.

The bite that Abobo took just now was an injection of its own toxins into Mongoose Slash's body.

However, this Mongoose Claw must have undergone special training. It actually contains toxins in its body, which makes it more difficult to be poisoned. But if it is poisoned, the toxins will have a negligible effect on it. However, the "Poisoning Surge" trait can be activated.

This is a tool specially trained to carry toxins.

Thinking even deeper, this might be a tool that Atuo uses to test the strength of the various toxins he has developed.

That's incredibly ruthless.

Such behavior makes them less like members of the league and more like Rockets members wearing the league's name.

If Aju's disciples are like this, it's hard to imagine what kind of person Aju must be.

Shake his head.

Suppressing the chaotic thoughts in my mind, the first thing I need to do now is bury him!

The large number of Poison-type Pokémon means that Xia Yan's main force for this battle has been determined.

Yundira!

"Yongji!"

With a low growl, the superpowers that Xia Yan had already completed surged out of Kadabra's body, the psychic field rapidly spreading, the surging superpowers even making its whiskers bristle.

Xia Yan glanced at the sonic dragon roaring incessantly to the side, its eyes bloodshot, and said calmly, "Want to save your wife? Then don't hesitate."

One-on-one?

Sorry, but this is a field battle, a life-or-death struggle. If you have something to use but don't use it, that's not being smart, that's being an idiot.

Upon hearing his words, Soundwave Dragon suddenly turned its head and glared fiercely at Xia Yan.

In its eyes, Xia Yan might not be much better than A Tuo on the other side.

However, one thing is certain for the Soundwave Dragon: if it doesn't choose to join forces with Xia Yan, it won't even have a chance to save its mate and its three newborn but unborn children.

Therefore, after Noisy Dragon roared at Xia Yan, it made a decisive choice.

"Humph!"

Atuo snorted at the decision made by the Noivern Dragon, took out a special syringe from his pocket, and pretended to drip it on the female Noivern Dragon.

Upon witnessing this scene, the male Noivern Dragon abruptly stopped.

However, before he could say anything, Xia Yan and his elf launched a fierce attack, giving him no chance to utter a single word.

"go with!"

Xia Yan gestured with his lips towards it, and Noivern understood, sweeping towards the female Noivern and the Pokémon eggs.

the other side.

Having opened up a mental space, Yunjira began to fully display its superpowers for the first time.

Kadabra's psychic abilities are undeniable, but in regular battles, its primary role is to coordinate the entire team, so it doesn't have many opportunities to showcase its full potential.

But this time, as the one with the greatest advantage against poison-type Pokémon, it inevitably took on the responsibility of being the main damage dealer, and the efforts of the other Pokémon were all to create the best environment for it to deal damage.

hum-

Beedrill flapped its wings and swung its long stinger, cleaving through the toxic sludge spat out by Weezing. As a Poison-type Pokémon, Beedrill can, to some extent, ignore Poison-type attacks.

Although Atuo's Poison-type Pokémon has been strengthened, there is no significant difference in strength between it and Beedrill, and it is even weaker than Beedrill. Moreover, Beedrill's venom was also strengthened by Xia Yan when it was still in the Weedle stage, so there is no possibility of it being poisoned.

On the other side, the dual-sword sheaths were even more decisive, directly taking the attack with their bare hands.

As a Steel-type Pokémon, without the "Corrosion" ability, it cannot be affected in the slightest.

The dual scabbards can even intercept poison-type attacks while continuously using Holy Sword Slash to counter Mongoose Slash.

Togekiku went even further, standing right next to Kadabra and continuously switching between Superpower and Secret Power.

The Psychic-type move, Psychic, has a significant impact on all of Atuo's Poison-type Pokémon. Occasionally, it can trigger the additional effect of Sharp Fang, causing the Pokémon to flinch.

With the support of the mental field, the secret power can also be transformed into psychic-type telekinesis, and can also add a slowing effect.

It could be said that what bothered Atuo's Pokémon the most was not the Steel-type Twin Blade Sheath, nor Kadabra's overwhelming attacks, but Togekiss's endless control.

Furthermore, Togekiss used Nasty Plot to boost its Special Attack, making its attacks not only have control effects but also deal considerable damage.

Once a Pokémon is controlled by Togekiss, it will inevitably be met with Kadabra's terrifying attack.

With the addition of the curved spoon, the Life Orb, the boost from the Mental Field, and the superpowers gained from fusion with Xia Yan, this terrifying output capability is absolutely like a bombshell.

As long as one Pokémon is affected by Togekiss's attack, Kadabra can instantly finish it off.

Completely destroying everything in its path.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was utterly devastating.

Compared to Hoshino Ryuzaki before, the current Ataku clearly did not receive Ataku's true teachings. The combination of the Pokémon lacked the necessary structural chain. Although they cooperated with each other, this cooperation was not enough to produce a qualitative change.

In layman's terms, it means there is no definite core.

Even with an advantage in the number of Pokémon, this kind of teamwork couldn't have much of an impact on Xia Yan.

Furthermore, when facing Hoshino Ryuzaki, Natsuhiko's Pokémon did not have a significant type advantage, but against Ataku at this moment, Natsuhiko had a complete advantage.

After going back and forth, the situation has become so dire that the other side is finding it difficult to even defend themselves.

However, Xia Yan was more wary of him than of Hoshino Ryuzaki.

Atuo's danger lies not in direct combat, but in his assassinations and poisoning; one careless move could easily lead to him falling victim to his schemes.

Xia Yan understood this point, so no matter what A Tuo said before, he was determined to kill him here to prevent future troubles.

As Xia Yan's Pokémon exerted their power one by one, the first of Atuo's Pokémon finally succumbed to Kadabra's attack and fell.

It is Ariados.

Then, like dominoes, a chain reaction began, and the second Pokémon to fall soon appeared—Goblin.

Then the situation became almost one-sided.

The third one to fall was Arbok.

There were six Pokémon in total, but now only three remain. Atuo finally couldn't sit still any longer.

"Gengar, Zangoose Chop."

Summon the two Pokémon back, then send Weezing to take the hits from Kadabra.

Under Xia Yan's gaze, Atuo, with a sullen face, took out two small, dark purple balls from the pocket at his waist.

After glaring fiercely at Xia Yan, she gritted her teeth and threw the two small balls into the mouths of Gengar and Zangoose.

This was his last trump card, something his teacher, A-Ju, had concocted over the years in research on toxins and poison-type Pokémon.

By injecting a large amount of external toxins, the poison-type energy originally possessed by the Poison-type Pokémon can be stimulated, resulting in a significant short-term increase in strength.

However, this method has significant side effects, and if you're unlucky, the elf who takes it may die after the effects wear off. It's Atuo's last resort.

He didn't want to use it at first, but Xia Yan's strength exceeded his expectations. If he didn't use it now, he might have to take it to his grave.
