Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

They all tacitly refrained from sending out their respective pseudo-god spirits.

After all, it's just an exhibition match, there's no need to use a near-god-level character to fight head-on.

Judging from the appearance of the four Pokémon alone, Charizard and Aggron have a firm grasp on the overall vibe.

The two sides have significantly different tactical focuses.

Charizard and Aggron both seem like they'd choose to go for a strong attack.

As for Togekiss and the Flower Stone Monster...

cough cough.

"Battle begins!"

As soon as the referee finished speaking, all four of them stopped laughing and joking.

"Charizard, Dragon Dance!"

"Aggron, earthquake!"

Watari and Daigo gave commands in no particular order, and were prepared to take a hard line right from the start.

Then, a deep purple aura emanated from the Charizard's body, and it swung its tail heavily, its aura rising sharply.

At the same time, a faint purple light could be seen emanating from Du's body.

In just one night, he gradually figured out how to use the "Dragon's Power".

At the same time, Bosscodora raised one foot heavily and stomped it down on the ground with tremendous force. Ripples formed by the ground-type energy caused the ground to tremble violently, spreading outwards from Bosscodora.

Charizard and Aggron, one flying and one ground, is a standard doubles setup, at least ensuring that the two Pokémon don't interfere with each other.

After all, it was only one night, and it was everyone's first time working together. How complex and feasible tactics could they possibly come up with?

It's already good enough if we don't hold each other back.

Compared to them, Xia Yan and Shirona seemed much calmer.

"Flower Rock Monster, you're provoking me!"

"Pokekiss, trickery!"

The target of the Flower Rock Monster's provocation was the Charizard, which was halfway through its "Dragon Dance" technique.

This abruptly interrupted its growth.

Meanwhile, Togekiss flew behind the Rockruff, safely boosting its Special Attack.

However, a clear drawback of doing this is that the Rockruff can no longer avoid Aggron's "Earthquake".

Although Rockruff is not weak to Ground-type moves, the power of Earthquake is not something that can be easily withstood.

Bang!

The Flower Rock Monster, which was on the ground, was hit head-on by the shockwave and was seriously injured.

Wataru and Daigo exchanged a glance.

They were not happy at all for causing harm to the Flower Rock Monster.

Instead, a bad feeling began to rise in my heart.

This looks like they're being set up to fall into a trap.

However, Charizard has already been provoked, so even if it didn't want to fight, it was impossible.

And Aggron, needless to say, is a powerful offensive Pokémon.

"Air Slash".

Xia Yan didn't care what they thought and directly commanded Togekiss to activate its strongest control.

"Chocolate!"

After Togekiss flapped its wings and activated "Narcos," its Special Attack ability was greatly enhanced, and its target was Aggron, whose Special Defense was relatively weak.

"Roar--!!"

Charizard then flapped its wings and flew in front of Aggron. With a flick of its wings, it unleashed the same "Air Slash," directly negating one of Togekiss's attacks.

The other one was directly crushed by its "dragon claw".

Having had the experience of fighting Togekiss once, Wataru has a better understanding of how to deal with the threat of "Air Slash", especially "Air Slash" that he is not proficient in.

"Flower Rock Monster, Shadow Sneak Attack!"

As Togekiss's Air Slash was defeated by Charizard, Cynthia also began her actions.

The Rockruff's body, resembling a black mist, quickly disappeared into the ground, and using the speed of "Shadow Sneak," it appeared behind Aggron and Charizard.

How could it possibly charge right into the middle of two such massive Pokémon?

Is this going to be a case of one man on top of another?!

"Charizard, breathe fire!"

"Aggron, Iron Tail!"

Regardless of Xia Yan and Cynthia's tactics, if they don't take down the Flower Rock Monster that has charged in like this, how can they continue the battle?

"Look at me," Xia Yan said calmly.

"Chocolate!"

Togekiss emitted a dazzling and brilliant light, attracting Charizard's attention.

The jet of flame made a sharp turn and shot directly at Togekiss.

Meanwhile, Aggron's thick, hard, and sturdy tail lashed out without hesitation at the Rockruff on the ground behind it.

Upon seeing this, Cynthia's brow relaxed, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

"Share the pain!"

boom!!!

As the metallic "Iron Tail" crashed down, a cunning glint flashed in the Flower Rock Monster's eyes, and a black light shot out from its body.

But its target isn't Aggron, it's Charizard!

Charizard, which was unleashing its "Flame Blast" attack, suddenly went limp, and the attack fired by the Rockruff was pulled away from it, taking with it most of its stamina.

Charizard: What the hell... Aggron caused this mess, why am I the one who got hurt?

The Flower Stone looks at Aggron: Still want to fight? (σ｀?w?′)σ

This situation left Bosscodora stunned, unsure whether to attack or not.

If it were the one who got hurt, it would accept it.

But it was Charizard that was injured, which made it hesitate.

Its hesitation allowed Togekiss, who was using "super speed" to dodge Charizard's "Flame Breath," to show no mercy.

"Chocolate!"

The three crests on Tokkis's head trembled slightly.

Immediately, countless white specks of light fell from the sky, entering the Flower Rock Monster's body and healing some of its injuries.

Morning light!

Now, the Flower Rock Monster can start getting beaten up again—no, it can start showing off.

He raised his eyes at Bosscodora.

provocative!

Wataru and Daigo exchanged a glance; they understood what Natsuhiko and Cynthia's tactics were.

Isn't this just taking advantage of their power and then returning it to them?

Let the Rockruff go out and get beaten up, and then Togekiss can assist. The harder Charizard and Aggron beat it up, the more serious the injuries they will suffer in return.

The reason why the Rockruff didn't dodge Aggron's earthquake was because the Rockruff never intended to dodge it in the first place.

Moreover, Tokiss is not purely a support character; its offensive capabilities are undeniable.

Don't forget that Togekiss used a "trick" right from the start, and its special attack ability should not be underestimated either.

In Xia Yan's words to Cynthia, this tactic is... the "Blood Demon Flow" tactic.

Pull the opponent's health to the same level as your own, and then use your advantages to finish them off.

Even if it can't harvest the loot, the Flower Rock Monster is fully capable of taking someone down with it.

Not only Wataru and Daigo understood it, but the audience understood it too.

"Holy crap, this tactic..." Da Ye stared wide-eyed.

"It's similar to the 'Song of Annihilation' tactic," Kona said, adjusting her glasses.

Also pushing up his glasses was Wu Song, who was sitting with his legs crossed, holding a book that Wan Long had just published, saying, "I'm working overtime to study tactics."

Nanami covered her mouth and chuckled, "Xia Yan really is a 'tactical mastermind'."

Next to Nanami were two little devils.

One of them was her younger brother, Shigeru, who looked deep in thought. He felt that the strategies for Pokémon battles were too complex, and he couldn't help but seriously doubt the tactics he had been working on over the years and his own tactical skills.

On the other side, Ash didn't have so many complicated thoughts. He was just thinking: Why did Aggron stop fighting?

but.

Lance and Steven, being experienced trainers, immediately made changes.

The Flower Rock Monster can no longer be fought.

But Pokkiss, yes.

Noticing the change in their gazes, Xia Yan's smile grew increasingly strange, and he winked at Cynthia.

Cynthia hesitated for a moment, but responded immediately.

"Flower Rock Monster, curse!"

curse......
