Why would you need a girlfriend when you have Pokémon?

The set of Turtle Punches that Lowe commanded Gardevoir to perform looked very powerful, but in reality, it could only be used to fool newcomers who had just started Pokémon battles, or people who were far less powerful than Lowe.

In that case, there is no need to worry about any skills. You can just use a bunch of skills to kill the opponent.

However, if the opponent is Qianli, then this style of play is meaningless. After all, the premise of skills is to combine them with each other and use them in appropriate places and times to achieve sufficient effect.

Lowe has so many skills, the only effect worth looking forward to is that the skills can create additional abnormal states to restrict the King of Leave...

But at this moment, both sides are standing on the field, and the effect of this field is that as long as they stand on it, they will continue to be affected. In other words, now is a situation where both sides will not be affected by abnormal status, not only Lowe's Gardevoir, but also Qianli's King of Leave.

Under this premise, the additional abnormal states triggered by these skills do not exist, and the skills only have the power of the skills. Throwing out skills in such a disorganized and uncoordinated manner seems to be a simple waste of output.

Qianli's King of Leave blew away most of the approaching attacks with just a battle roar, and it followed closely with another heavy arm hammer.

This time, Gardevoir used teleportation again to try to dodge the attack...

...Gardevoir, which has telepathy, can dodge almost all close-range attacks with the help of teleportation. However, this time, when Gardevoir activated the teleportation, the King of Leave made a feint with a heavy arm hammer, raised his hand and launched an ultimate attack to hit his side.

No matter from which angle one looked at it, that heavy arm hammer seemed to be a full-strength attack from the King of Leave. Who knew that it could be retracted so easily?

If this was shocking enough, then the next ultimate impact was even more unexpected...

Almost as soon as a flash of light changed, Gardevoir's figure appeared where there was nothing before. It moved instantly and just as it appeared, it looked up and saw an Ultimate Impact rushing towards its face.

"!"

Not only the audience in the stands, but also Lowe and Gardevoir were shocked.

Mega Gardevoir's telekinesis has been strengthened to an outrageous degree. With this outrageous telekinesis... her telepathy has also been fully strengthened.

Under such circumstances, Gardevoir can almost predict all the opponent's actions in advance, and then run away by teleporting.

But she didn't expect that the opponent's King of Leave could actually block her teleportation position in advance and directly blocked Gardevoir's retreat with one shot.

First there was a feint attack with a heavy arm hammer, and then there was the ultimate blow to defeat the enemy. Although there were only these two moves, they were much more effective than Lowe's previous turtle punch.

In other words, the opponent's offensive strategy was very clear, and they had already predicted Lowe's actions in advance.

"..."

Obviously, Gardevoir has telepathy, but its moves were predicted by the opponent one step ahead. Could it be that the opponent's Leave King also has telepathy?

That is of course impossible. The King of Leave does not have telepathy, so there is only one explanation for this mysterious situation.

The King of Leave was trained by Qianli, and with his rich combat experience, he was able to read the movement trajectory of Gardevoir one step ahead of time, so he was able to pre-read Gardevoir's actions and launch an offensive in advance.

This does not rely on metaphysical powers such as telepathy, but on real practical experience. It is the result of going through hundreds of battles and relying on rich experience to summarize the opponent's action patterns and find a way to crack the opponent.

This is just like when playing chess, you not only need to know how you play, but also how your opponent will play, and then calculate two, three, or even four or five steps ahead based on the opponent's actions...

If you only focus on the "move" in front of you when playing chess, you can never expect to achieve any results until you die. When game-type competitions develop to the extreme, in the end they all converge on this "pre-reading" step.

Lowe's father is an expert in this field, so he was able to see through Gardevoir's actions even though Gardevoir had mastered telepathy.

amazing……

…Although I can actually do the same thing with Gardevoir’s telepathy, my father did it based on experience.

Just like before, the King of Leave was able to break through his limits and exert power similar to the ultimate power through training. In other words, what Qianli can do, Lowe can basically do now, but Lowe has to rely on plug-ins and other means to assist... Qianli relies on experience and strength to fight back.

And this is also in line with the attributes he manipulates, the so-called "general system", which is such a "great force works miracles" simple power without any fancy tricks.

Although it is simple, it is by no means simplistic. It is not surprising to cook delicacies from land and sea. The more you can make simple ingredients taste delicious beyond common sense, the more you can call it real skill...

Qianli became a gym master recognized by the alliance because he trained the general attribute, which was "ordinary" and even had no special characteristics, to the extreme.

"..."

There is no doubt about the power of this ultimate impact. Gardevoir could have continued to use teleportation to escape, but after all, it had just teleported to its destination and had no time to make any adjustments. It saw this ultimate impact as soon as it landed, so naturally it had no way to avoid it.

There was nowhere to dodge, which meant that it was hit hard. No matter how durable Gardevoir was, it couldn't withstand it. Its body shook, and as the white light dissipated, it changed from mega form back to normal form.

To explain it in a more understandable way, this is equivalent to Gardevoir's transformation being forcibly interrupted, which can be regarded as a common routine of failure in special effects films.

Although Gardevoir managed to take the attack by removing the mega, it basically had no strength left to continue fighting.

Seeing this, Lowe decisively took out the Poké Ball...

...The power that Gardevoir inherited from Sylveon did not help her continue to defeat the enemy, and in the end she still lost to the King of Leave.

From this point of view, it seems that Lowe’s relay “inheritance” tactics have still failed?

After taking back Gardevoir, Lowe sighed. At this moment, he and Qianli only had one Pokémon left, which meant that this was the final deciding factor.

Qianli's last Pokémon is his trump card, the King of Leave, and Lowe's last Pokémon is naturally his first and last trump card...

"...Then let's get started, Mask-nyan!!!"

Chapter 204: The Winning Hand

Lowe sent out his trump card. Now, he and Qianli only have one Pokémon left, which means this is the final deciding factor.

However, Lowe's last remaining ace, Masked Cat, seems to be no match for the opposing King of Leave.

After all, Gardevoir at least has a mega evolution, while Catman only has the ultimate power of Z moves.

The only thing I can say is that it is the field left by Sylveon and the artificial moon left by Gardevoir...

Can Masked Cat defeat the King of Leave with this bonus? To be honest, the audience, including Dr. Odamaki and other judges, are not optimistic...

...There is indeed a gap between Lowe's strength and Qianli's, and if Gardevoir's last tortoise punch was not Lowe's tactical arrangement, then such behavior itself can be regarded as a kind of "exhaustion of all tricks".

It seems that Lowe has run out of better ways to defeat his opponent, so he resorts to this random tactic. This random tactic is only used by a novice trainer, and it greatly lowers his score.

Of course, considering that Lowe did defeat Chihiro's two Pokémon, at least judging from his performance in the first two rounds, Lowe's strength can be considered quite impressive.

It is understandable that he failed to defeat Qianli, or was beaten to the point of mental breakdown by Qianli's ridiculously strong leave-taking king.

At least most of the trainers watching the match asked themselves honestly that if they were in the match, they probably wouldn't be able to defeat the Pink Devil Chantera in Qianli's Wall of Sighs, not to mention the parent-child Love Dragonite...

...As for losing to the ace leave king, there is nothing to be ashamed of.

However, Lowe's expression did not seem to indicate that he was out of control due to the defeat. At least for now, he seemed to remain quite calm and composed, and did not seem to be overwhelmed.

If this is the case, then the previous behavior was not simply an outburst of uncontrolled emotions, but was actually part of a tactic?

Or maybe it was just because of Gardevoir's withdrawal that Lowe calmed down?

Both situations seem possible, but at least the audience can be sure of one thing: the next round will be the final round that determines the winner.

There was no need to try and test it out. By now, both father and son were already aware of their respective strengths...

Or to be more precise, Lowe probably understood how strong his father was, and that what he could only do with cheats, he could achieve through training.

Of course, Qianli was also very pleased, because Lowe's current strength was much stronger than when Qianli was the same age.

In other words, the reason why Qianli is stronger than Luo Wei now is not because of his talent, but because of the hard work accumulated through years of training.

In other words, as long as Lowe goes through another ten years of training, and as long as he does not slack off in his practice, there will be no problem for him to reach the same level as Qianli. Qianli can now be so sure of this.

Although Lowe has shown considerable talent in the past, talent is talent. Whether it can be transformed into concrete strength depends on the actual situation.

It doesn't mean that high talent can be transformed into strength. Many people have first-class talent, but they are only good at talking on paper and are quite incompetent when it comes to actual operations.

Lowe's excellence lies in the fact that everyone has seen his terrifying growth. Not only is he talented, he also has the ability to turn this terrifying talent into strength.

Having confirmed this, Qianli no longer cared about the outcome of the battle. He had already acknowledged Lowe's efforts in his heart.

Of course, although the outcome of the match doesn't matter to him, he certainly won't let up in such a situation, as that would be an insult to the efforts of both sides.

"…If you have any last tricks, use them. Otherwise, you won't have a chance."

Qianli made such a declaration, so he was naturally qualified to make such a declaration. Lowe also calmed himself down and started to prepare himself seriously.

"Yes, of course I understand. Then... this is my last resort, Kamen-nyan..."

Lowe didn't say much. He just called out to the Masked Cat and the other party immediately understood. After all, the tacit understanding they had cultivated over the years was not cultivated in vain.

Of course, Masked Cat is also very clear about the strength of the opponent, King of Leave. After all, King of Leave not only watched Lowe grow up, but also was always by Lowe's side when he was training New Leaf Cat.

In other words, the King of Leave is the master of both Levi and Masked Cat...

This time, it is Lowe and Masked Cat who challenge "father" and "master" at the same time!

After all, in the world of Pokémon, there is no difference between Pokémon and humans. Pokémon are also family members. Qianli is Rowe's father, so naturally Meowth is also regarded as his child. In the eyes of the King of Leave, there is no difference between Rowe and Meowth.

This is inheritance...

...Humans and humans, humans and Pokémon, Pokémon and Pokémon

Next, it’s the final decisive move!

Lowe took a stance, his whole body ablaze with flames once again, and at the same time, Kamen Cat took a step on the ground and jumped into the air. This time, she didn't do anything fancy, she just condensed a pink light on her fist, and directly prepared to attack with a fairy-type Z move enhanced by the ultimate power.

On the other side, Qianli didn't have any more tricks at this point. The King of Asking for Leave was furious, and in his raised palm... there was light gathering visibly.

This ultimate impact was launched first, and only a sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard, and a powerful impact force came towards us!

Lowe was not intimidated either. The artificial moon in the sky reflected the figure of the Masked Cat. At that moment, the entire artificial moon fell from the sky in coordination with the movements of the Masked Cat...

Anyway, this is the last attack, so there is no need to worry about endurance and the location. Just mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized and concentrate them in this last attack...

that's……

"…'Our' final blow!"

The ultimate impact took the initiative, and the violent air wave seemed to push back the falling moon. However, the masked cat was not afraid of the oncoming impact and directly swung out his cat claws!

The falling moon turned into a piece of silver light. After all, it was not a real entity. It was just an illusion condensed by mental power. At this moment, it was just decomposed into mental power again.

The blessing was bestowed on the Masked Cat, and the aura that filled the entire venue also gathered on the Masked Cat.

The ultimate impact met this enhanced Z move, and the two sides instantly became in a confrontation...

And at this moment, Lowe gave the last instruction...

"…Now is the final tactic!"

Behind the King of Leave, a translucent shadow emerged, and the shadow looked exactly like the Mega Gardevoir from before...

“…Predicting the future!!!”
