Good morning, noon and night, hello, trainer

The oppressive characteristic.

It has relatively few uses in the game, and the situations where it is useful are when the team is receiving the attack, or in some more tricky situations.

However, the world view in the animation is different. Skills have no PP, but consume physical strength, and physical strength is the health bar.

This would be a very useful feature.

This is the oppression from legend!

"You know, I'm a challenger, and I'm here to get the orange badge."

With his hand on Zapdos, the invisible pressure loosened a little, making everyone present breathe a sigh of relief.

Now the gym trainer Ma Zhishi stopped talking nonsense.

He pressed a button in the gym, and a typical hidden area appeared between him and Lars.

Compared to Brock's Dark Gray Gym and Misty's Blue Gym, Ma Zhishi's Dead Leaf Gym looks more like a dedicated gym.

"Ding-ling-ling!"

"The gym challenge begins now. You can use your Pokémon in one-on-one matches. There is no time limit. It ends when one player is defeated."

There are dedicated broadcasting facilities, and even the battle arenas have not been modified to suit one's preferences.

It has a very competitive atmosphere.

The Raichu that came on the field, well, didn't have much momentum when facing the Zapdos.

Just from the feeling of oppression, its expression already looked a bit sweaty.

The lightning bird frowned at this, it was completely different from what it had expected.

"How about giving other partners a chance to move around?"

Lars rubbed Leafmeow's chin on his shoulder and asked Zapdos.

Facing this step, Zapdos was very pleased. After glaring at Ma Zhishi, he restrained his aura and stood quietly beside Las.

Las felt that it was useless. Raichu still cared a lot about Zapdos, and the psychological pressure did not decrease much.

The sense of oppression is more useful than he thought in the anime world view.

In this case, can the doubled physical exertion and oppressive characteristics be used to train Pokémon?

Well, you can give it a try.

But for now, let’s get the badge first.

"Garsis, it's your turn."

"just!"

An excited voice came from the shadows.

The shadow of Ra's, which was originally at the back under the lights, suddenly turned 180 degrees and came to the field, and the blue Gastly made his grand appearance!

fighting! Cool!

The excited eyes and excited tongue all show Gastly's mood at the moment.

"..."

When Ma Zhishi saw that it was Gastly who came on the field, he originally wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks as usual.

But saw the lightning bird next to Las.

Silently close your mouth again.

"The battle begins!"

-

Kanto Region: Chapter 47: A Sweaty Battle

"Raichu! Use 100,000 Volts!"

From the very beginning, Ma Zhishi planned to go all out.

The well-trained Raichu's electric-attribute moves are quite powerful, and they can create long sections of charred ground when they hit the ground.

You ask why it hits the ground?

Well, this brings us to the magical operations of ghost-attribute Pokémon that are only found in animations.

Gastly fell to the ground and Gulu Gulu hid underground.

One hundred thousand volts is completely ineffective.

This happened the moment Ma Zhishi gave the order. It was quite quick and neat. After all, it was one of his main training programs.

"The idea is difficult, let's start with chaos!"

"just!"

Gastly suddenly popped up in front of Raichu and stuck out his tongue, then suddenly returned to the ground.

Successfully tricked Raichu into launching an electric shock.

Then he emerged from behind Raichu, rubbing his hands and smearing a strange light on Raichu's face.

Raichu was dazzled by the light and was confused.

But Gastly did not act rashly, but chose to return underground.

"Come on, Raichu! Use Megaton Punch on the ground!"

"mound!"

As it turned out, Gastly's decision was correct. It was just unlucky because Raichu was not affected by the chaos at all and punched Gastly at the place where he was hiding underground.

The earth and rocks exploded, and Gastly flew out.

Lars noticed that Gastly had taken some damage.

Hey, I suddenly remembered that in the animation, the ghost-type Pokémon that hides underground does not seem to be invincible. It will be hit by skills with high destructive power, and general attribute moves can also cause damage in this situation.

You can't just like this operation when it's not cracked.jpg

"Raichu! Give it another electromagnetic wave!"

But it hit the ground.

Gastly fell to the ground with a gurgling sound, avoiding the electromagnetic wave.

Although this operation is not very invincible, it is still very useful for avoiding electric-attribute moves.

How to say the ground attributes of the plug-in, the plug-in is free of electricity.

Lars was laughing wildly.

"Highly poisonous." He issued an order that sounded vicious.

This is where the newly learned skills come in handy.

Moreover, when a poison-attribute Pokémon uses this skill, it will become a guaranteed hit skill.

Although the value of guaranteed hit skills in the animation world view is not high, they are indeed easier to hit than other skills.

After Gastly learned Venom, he discovered that as long as he concentrated, he could control Venom to turn, which would cause him to ignore himself.

But if you use a sure-hit skill in an absolutely safe situation, it can really be a sure-hit.

"No! Raichu, get out of the way!"

For example, now, Raichu did not choose to attack, but chose to evade.

That gives Gastly room to operate Toxic.

But Lars prefers something more direct.

"Control it with your strong mental power."

There's no need to force yourself to control Venomance to play dodgeball with Raichu at a time like this. I just pulled out the Psychic Skill Machine before, and it's just right for this situation.

The characteristics of the animation super-powered moves are that most of the skills are non-ballistic, they lock onto the target as soon as the eyes light up, and they also provide control when they hit.

Although the performance of mental strength is not as outrageous as that of telekinesis, Las does not need such strong control. It is enough to make Raichu stop moving for a moment.

At that moment, the poison covered its face!

To repeat, HP in the anime worldview is the physical strength bar. There is no such thing as someone being close to death and still alive and kicking with red blood.

The poison reduces physical strength, which is far more terrifying than in the game.

Also...

"Garsis, use Double Trouble."

This is the only special attack move of Gastly that can be learned before the evolution level among the self-study skills of Gastly.

When the enemy is in abnormal state, the power will be doubled.

From the original power of 65, it becomes a powerful skill of 130!

"We can't let it use it! Raichu, stop it!"

"Thunderchu!"

Ma Zhishi immediately issued a response order, and Raichu immediately gathered all his strength and released 100,000 volts to fight against Gastly's misfortune.

From the time he was hit by the strange light until now, Raichu has never been hit by chaos.

Very familiar, very familiar.

Before, when Infernape used the Freeze Punch to hit Gnarl, it triggered a freeze, and when Leafy Cat used the Paralysis Punch to hit Gastly, Lars even wondered if his luck had changed.

Now I see that although it was late, I still found myself familiar with the abnormal state I put others in, but they turned a blind eye.

Pinch your mom!

"Garsis, there's no need to fight it head-on. If you have the advantage, don't use that bastard."

"just!"

Gastly immediately understood, gave up the attack, and fell to the ground and hid back underground.

While Raichu's 100,000-volt attack missed, he emerged from behind and released Misfortunes Again.

"Sure enough, it came out from behind! Raichu!"

"mound!"

Ma Zhishi's Raichu suddenly discharged an electric shock, and the panicked Gastly couldn't dodge it, and the half of his body exposed was damaged.

Fortunately, I used the skill of "Misfortunes never come singly" to offset some of the discharge damage and did not lose my combat capability.

Even the half of his body buried in the soil was knocked out.

"just--"

Then what made Lars' eyelids twitch was the flashing arc of electricity on Gastly!

Ah, this familiar scene!

Whether it was Lars or Gastly, their expressions darkened and they both looked uncomfortable.

It was the same familiar luck again. Being touched triggered the additional paralysis effect.

With this luck, Lass felt that if he played Finger Swing Doubles, he could replicate the teacher's famous double seal scene.

"Garsis! Get back to the ground first!"

"Don't give it a chance! Raichu! Megaton Kick!"

Seeing that Gastly was about to evade the ground again, Ma Zhishi hurriedly ordered to stop him, intending to break the ground at the moment Gastly fell, preventing Gastly from evading the ground while taking this opportunity to inflict damage.

But what neither he nor Raichu expected was——

"Cha~!"

Gastly's body went numb and he failed to fall down.

Although Raichu shattered the ground with a heavy kick, Gastly was not on the ground, and its normal attribute skills failed to cause damage.

The scene was very awkward for a moment.
