Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

After a slight hesitation, Xia Yan quickly made a decision.

In the red light, two sprites appeared on the field.

"Pokkiku?"

Seeing the Pokémon that Xia Yan summoned, Cynthia thought for a moment and then took out a Poké Ball to summon her Togepi as well.

He held her in his arms and whispered, "It's so beautiful."

“Chako-ee—” Pokoby nodded repeatedly.

In the venue.

Standing opposite Togekiss was a creature with a deep blue body, a pair of dragon horns on its head, a pair of fins on either side of its head, and a fin on its back, its body curled up like a seahorse.

King Thorn Dragon!

Water-type and Dragon-type Pokémon.

Seadra evolves from a Pokémon that awakens its Dragon-type bloodline through Dragon Scales. It is a Pokémon that should live in the deep sea and would not hesitate to engage in battle if it encounters a wild Dragonite.

Xia Yan was naturally familiar with King Thorn Dragon.

Because it is one of the resident Pokémon of Team Rain, and an extremely excellent special attacker.

And this time, the Dragon King is also Xiaochun's trump card, one of her biggest advantages in this "Lily of the Valley Youth Tournament".

Upon seeing Kingdra, Lance, acting as the referee, became slightly serious, because he knew that Tsubaki was going to get serious right from the start.

However, he was more interested in seeing how Xia Yan's Pokémon would respond.

After all, he knew that Xia Yan's control over the Togekiku was extremely strong.

“King Thorn Dragon? That’s no easy opponent,” Xia Yan said to Togekiss with a smile.

"Chocolate!"

Pokkigu looked fearless and even bent his little arms, trying to show off his muscles, but found that he had no muscles at all, so he quickly put them away.

Her playful demeanor brought smiles to the faces of Lorelei and Cynthia standing nearby.

"Battle begins!"

As Watari finished speaking, the battle finally began.

Chapter 119 Xia Yan VS Xiao Chun

What would it feel like to hit Watari's sister in front of him?

Today, Xia Yan will show you how it works.

As soon as Watari finished speaking, Tsubaki immediately gave the order.

"Dragon King, Dragon Dance".

call--

"Dora!" The Thorn Dragon King was clearly very familiar with Tsubaki's battle habits. When Wataru said the battle was about to begin, it knew what the first step was, so it started moving as soon as Tsubaki spoke.

With a gentle sway of its body, a thin layer of dragon-type energy appeared around it. Under its special rhythm, this energy slowly transformed into the shape of a dragon.

However, at the moment Wataru began speaking, King Thorn Dragon wasn't the only one who was prepared.

"Chocolate!"

Pokkigu had already put away its playful expression.

It is the only Pokémon among Xia Yan's Pokémon that has competition experience.

During the exhibition match between Liu Bo and Kikuko Tenoh.

An invisible attack swiftly traversed a considerable distance.

"Dora?"

When Kingdra sensed the approaching attack, it was too late to react.

The supernatural power entered Kingdra's body, and its half-finished "Dragon Dance" was interrupted by Togekiss's supernatural power, triggering an additional effect and causing it to cower.

However, Pokkiku did not seize this opportunity to launch an attack.

A cunning glint appeared in his eyes, and as black light filled them, he parted his lips slightly and placed his hand on his forehead. A jewel-like pink glow emanated from Tokkigu, enveloping it.

Tricks and lucky charms.

"How did Xia Yan know that Xiao Chun's Kingdra ability is Sniper?" Du raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

Xiaochun was initially relieved to see that Xia Yan hadn't seized the opportunity when Kingdra was in a state of fear to press his advantage, but her expression turned serious when she saw the lucky charm surrounding Togekiss.

With just one encounter, she overturned all her previous perceptions of Xia Yan.

This person is anything but ordinary.

The fact that he didn't impulsively pursue the enemy but instead used a lucky charm is quite ingenious.

luck?

happen?

Xiaochun has more faith in the judgments that come from experience.

'As expected, someone my cousin admires is no ordinary person.'

As Togepi seized the opportunity to use "Nasty Plot" to boost its Special Attack and "Lucky Charm" to prevent being hit in a critical spot, Kingdra shook its head and recovered from its initial fear.

"King Thorn Dragon, Smoke."

Since the "Dragon Dance" failed, Xiaochun immediately changed her strategy to a direct attack.

A glob of black ink shot out of Kingdra's mouth and hurtled towards Togekiss.

"Chocolate!"

Pokkigu didn't dodge. As it swung its arm again, its body began to spin rapidly. Leaves with a strange luster appeared around its body and spun along with it.

Counterattack Shield!

As a move "created" by Xia Yan, this is an essential skill for all of Xia Yan's Pokémon, whether it's Beedrill or Togekiss, because it is very practical.

The "Shield of Counterattack" formed by the "Magic Leaf" successfully blocked Kingdra's "Smoke Screen," and Togekiss even used its high-speed spin to finally attack the "Magic Leaf" next to it.

"tornado."

Xiaochun was somewhat caught off guard by Xia Yan's move, but she still managed to get the Thorn Dragon King to use "Tornado" in time to intercept the Magic Leaf outside its body.

In two simple clashes, both of Xiaochun's tactics failed from the very beginning.

"Dragon Pulse!" Unbelieving in evil, Tsubaki abandoned her established tactics and chose to launch a direct attack.

Dragon Pulse?

Xia Yan's eyes flashed, and he issued a command for the first time.

"Pokkikiku, one more time."

Togekiss raised its hands, pointed its index fingers at its opponent, and waved them in a circle, generating a white sphere of energy. The energy sphere then disappeared into Kingdra's body at an invisible speed.

After being hit, Kingdra's body flashed white light and ignored Tsubaki's orders, using the "Tornado" technique it had used before.

Upon seeing this, Pokkiku's face broke into a wicked grin.

He then used his "superpower" to launch an attack, seizing the opportunity when King Thorn Dragon used "Tornado".

Although the additional effect wasn't triggered this time due to bad luck, Kingdra is still in the "Try Again" state and cannot offer any effective counterattack.

Xiaochun was feeling rather uncomfortable at that moment.

She felt that fighting Xia Yan's Togekiss was like punching a soft cotton ball with a hard fist, a feeling of being unable to exert her strength.

She thought that as long as she launched an offensive, she could take down Togekiss with a combo, but she found that she couldn't get close to Togekiss no matter what she did. One move after another completely broke through all her plans and tactics.

It was as if they completely overwhelmed her on a tactical level.

Actually, it's not just Tsubaki who feels this way.

There were also three people watching from the side.

Although Wataru sympathized with Tsubaki's plight, he now looked at Natsuhiko with intense fighting spirit, as if he wished he were the one being "bullied" by Togekiku there.

“This Kingdra must have just evolved,” Cynthia said.

Having only recently evolved, it doesn't yet have a complete grasp of its own abilities. Otherwise, it would have had a slight chance to launch an attack just now, when Togekiss used "Counter Shield" to defend against "Smoke".

Although it was a very short time, Cynthia saw it.

Unfortunately, Xiaochun failed to seize the opportunity.

"However, Xia Yan's Togepi is indeed very well controlled. Is this how Togepi is trained?"

Cynthia gained a new understanding of the simple training suggestions that Xia Yan had given her on the paper earlier.

She has a more accurate understanding of her future role as Togepi in the team, and a clearer direction for his development.

Meanwhile, the Togepi in her arms looked at Togekiku on the field with eyes full of stars.

Kona's eyes were also full of "convince" at this moment. She had been paying attention to something that others hadn't paid much attention to: from beginning to end, Xia Yan only gave Pokkigu one order.

This doesn't mean that Togekiss fought entirely on its own; Xia Yan, as the trainer, didn't play much of a role.

This means that Xia Yan and Pokjigu have reached a very high level of understanding, and every choice Pokjigu makes coincides with Xia Yan's thoughts.

Because it's not needed, I won't give orders.

The single command that led to the victory was essentially secured.

With the boost from "Trickery," Togekiss, thanks to the damage from its previous two Superpowers, has a higher chance of winning even if it stands still and charges at Kingdra.

However, will Togekiss choose to clash with Kingdra?

Obviously not.

Under Togekiss's relentless and "disgusting" tactics, Tsubaki's Kingdra "died with resentment," never managing to touch Togekiss once.

Everyone thought Beedrill was Xia Yan's trump card.

Little did he know that in a one-on-one battle, Togekiss was the "dirtiest" of Xia Yan's Pokémon.
