Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

It was filled with the aura of nobility.

It was as if watching a nobleman perform an elegant dance.

This makes Xia Yan even more eager to see Cynthia and Lorelei use "Z-Moves".

but.

Before this.

He also has a formidable opponent.

"Now, let's welcome the third group of contestants, our genius researcher Xia Yan, and our island king, Mr. Merdan!"

The host now gets nervous whenever he sees Xia Yan's name.

Don't give him anything he doesn't know!

Chapter 178 Fairy-type moves

As is customary.

As expected, Xia Yan spotted Mo Dan in the player tunnel, shuffling around in his slippers, playing with his Kendama, and looking completely relaxed.

“Mr. Merdan,” Xia Yan called out.

Among all the island kings and queens, Xia Yan probably values ​​Merdan the most.

A former Interpol inspector, he had a long-standing friendship with Giovanni. He later gave up his position as one of the Four Heavenly Kings and single-handedly suppressed the entire Skull Team.

However, neither of these tasks seems to be something an ordinary person can do.

"Xia Yan," Mo Dan scratched his head and yawned, "you've had quite a few things to do these past few days, the fairy faction... tsk, that's certainly a remarkable achievement."

Xia Yan smiled politely.

But then Mordan said thoughtfully, "That Tapu Boom is also a Fairy-type Pokémon, right?"

"Huh?" Xia Yan was taken aback.

He waved his hand and said, "It's okay, let's go. I should be able to get a good night's sleep after the treatment today. I haven't been sleeping well lately."

He stretched and swayed as he walked towards the field.

Watching Merdan's departing figure, Xia Yan stood there for a moment.

to be frank.

He really couldn't see through Merdan.

I always felt that this person knew a lot of things and was hiding many secrets.

But he displayed a lazy demeanor, seemingly uninterested in anything, which masked everything else beneath his indolence.

She pursed her lips.

Xia Yan walked out of the players' tunnel, greeted by a deafening roar of cheers.

If we win this match, we'll advance to the quarterfinals.

Professor Oak, Kikuno Tenno, and Kikuko all ranked him in the top three.

That means they need to reach at least the semifinals.

It's just a matter of how much strength Modan is prepared to unleash.

The two stopped.

"Here it comes! Let's look forward to what kind of exciting match Xia Yan and Mo Dan will present to us!"

At the referee's signal, the two players each took out a Poké Ball.

Xia Yan held the Poké Ball, looked at Mo Dan opposite him with a faint smile on his face, pondered for a moment, then put the Poké Ball back on his waist and changed to another one.

Seeing this, Merdan raised an eyebrow.

But he didn't say anything, he just casually tossed the Poké Ball onto the field.

"Roar--!!"

Its dark red scales trembled, its black eyes hardened, and its furious roar spread outwards.

"Merdan sent out Rogue Crocodile!"

As Merdan threw out the Poké Ball, Xia Yan also summoned his own Pokémon.

In the red light.

"Cha-cha-yi~~"

Pokekis flapped its wings, stirring up a large amount of dust.

"Oh my god! For the first time, Xia Yan didn't use Eevee as his starting Pokémon! Instead, he chose Togekiss! I wonder what kind of tactics Xia Yan will bring to us with Togekiss as his starting Pokémon?"

Upon seeing Pokekis, the host felt a jolt in his heart.

Suddenly I had a very bad feeling.

But he still tried to remain calm and continued:

"Latest science: Xia Yan's Togekiss is a Fairy/Flying-type Pokémon! As for the Fairy type... we'll have to wait for Xia Yan to answer that for us!"

The moment Tokiss appeared on stage, the audience's spirits were immediately lifted.

What information related to fairies will be shown this time?

"Oh? You didn't choose Eevee? You're quite adaptable." Merdan said with a smile.

Xia Yan also understands.

Do you really think that others can't find a way to counter Ibrahimovic by always sending him to the front lines?

"Battle begins!"

With the referee's signal, the match between Xia Yan and Mo Dan officially began.

First and foremost, and very importantly, the "Intimidate" trait of Rogue Crocodile did not have much of an effect on Togekiss.

This shows that Xia Yan's prediction came true.

"Pokekiss, electromagnetic wave!" Xia Yan seized the initiative immediately.

He rarely tries to gain the upper hand in battles against others, and the more he does so, the more it shows how much he values ​​Merdan.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Merdan said lazily, "Rogue Crocodile, bluffing."

"Roar--!!"

The rogue crocodile roared to the sky, its eyes turning red, and an aggressive aura surged forth, waves of sound sweeping towards Togekiss.

The sound waves were extremely fast.

It seems they are poised to overtake us from behind.

Just by looking at the speed at which this crocodile unleashes its moves, you can see how well Murdan has trained his crocodile.

Moreover, with such a powerful sound wave, Pokekiss's weak electromagnetic waves might not be able to hit it.

"A change of tactics, a mysterious guardian."

Xia Yan responded quickly.

"A change of tactics! Xia Yan has demonstrated the excellent qualities that a great trainer should possess, and changing tactics is one of them! Now, Krookodile's 'bluff' is only used to give the opponent an advantage!"

"Cha-ke-yi!!"

Tokiss reacted instantly, canceling the storage of electric energy, and a bright white virtual barrier appeared around its body.

The crocodile's bluffing sound waves were also completely blocked.

However, a hint of red flashed in Togekiss's eyes, and its aura surged, greatly increasing its attack power.

However, Merdan and the rogue crocodile remained calm.

Even if Togekiss gains an attack power boost, it won't pose much of a threat.

The key is.

Taking advantage of this time difference, Crocodile approached Togekiss at an extremely fast speed.

This negates Pokkiss's greatest advantages in space and distance.

Merdan abandoned his lazy demeanor and his expression became slightly serious.

"Rogue Crocodile, beat them to the punch, Thunder Fang!"

Combo moves!

With a leap, the crocodile's terrifying jaws, instantly covered in lightning, snapped fiercely at Togekiss in the sky.

"Angel's Kiss".

"Cha-cha-yi~~"

Tokiji immediately revealed an adorable expression, gathering crystalline pink energy without flinching, and playfully winked at the leaping crocodile.

A sweet flying kiss.

"Xia Yan is very calm. 'Angel's Kiss' is a Normal-type move. It's okay, it's okay... um?"

It is common knowledge that "Angel's Kiss" is a Normal-type move.

However, the energy of most types is milky white, which is common knowledge.

But why is the energy that Tokiss stirs up pink?

There was no time for the host and the audience to react.

The rogue crocodile was momentarily dazed and crashed headfirst to the ground.

boom!!

"The rogue crocodile is in chaos, and the 'angel's kiss' has worked!" The host breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it still works the same.

“Magic Flash!” Xia Yan said slowly, squinting his eyes.
