Nanfeng immediately took out the special item that Gyarados had been carrying from his backpack.

Rain Veil: When a Pokémon enters the battle, the weather changes to rain. Using Water-type moves during rainy weather does not consume PP (exclusive to Magikarp and Gyarados; does not work for other Pokémon).

Both exclusive items have their advantages: one brings rain, and the other compensates for the weakness of electric types.

The former can be used to start a rain system when there are no Electric-type Pokémon. If you have Greninja, it is also quite good to defeat Gyarados and then switch to Greninja.

0 ........ .......

In the rain, the power of the Golden Water Demon Shuriken increases even further!

The latter compensates for the weakness to Electric-type moves, which is an absolute temptation. For Gyarados, which is four times weak to Electric, this can be considered a semi-divine artifact. With a 50% chance to reduce damage by 50%, it is equivalent to turning four times the type weakness into two times the type weakness.

But... with a 50% probability and double the restraint, Nanfeng feels that wearing an "aura headband" might be more practical?

However, after Gyarados Mega Evolves, its type becomes Water/Dark, which reduces damage by 50%, meaning Electric-type attacks no longer have any advantage.

While Nanfeng was carefully considering which exclusive item to equip for Gyarados.

A notification suddenly popped up on the handheld console.

Should we combine "Magikarp Ribbon" and "Rainy Scarf"?

"It can be synthesized?" Nanfeng asked in surprise, and immediately selected "yes".

[Item obtained: Gyarados Crown (★★)]

Gyarados Crown (★★): When the Pokémon enters the battle, the weather changes to heavy rain. Using Water-type moves in rainy weather does not consume PP, and when attacked by Electric-type moves, there is a 50% chance to reduce damage by 50%, and a 25% chance to absorb the damage and restore 25% of its HP. (Exclusive to Magikarp and Gyarados; does not apply to other Pokémon.)

(Three updates today, better than yesterday. Hopefully, four updates tomorrow!) 3.

305. Team Magma Base

Gyarados Crown (★★)

Nanfeng no longer needs to worry, as this item combines resistance to electricity and rain, and also has the additional effect of "25% chance to absorb this damage and restore 25% of health".

It can be described as a huge enhancement.

The only slightly troublesome thing is that the anti-electric effect needs to be triggered on rainy days, which is a potential problem. If the other party activates sunny weather, the anti-electric effect will fail.

However... Nanfeng thinks it's probably impossible.

If an Electric-type Pokémon were to battle a Gyarados, they would probably prefer a rainy day.

After all, Gyarados can't dodge thunder on a rainy day!

In addition, there is a "★★" symbol behind the Gyarados Crown.

Since there's a ★★, is it possible for it to be ★★★?

Nanfeng speculated.

He currently owns three exclusive items.

Besides Gyarados's Crown, "087" also has Gastly Barrier on Haunter and Larvitar's Ribbon. Whether they can be upgraded to ★★ depends on whether special items for their Pokémon will be released in the future.

Let's continue to look at the other rewards.

The secret treasure obtained from the Water Fleet is "Hundred Refined Metal Membrane".

Refined Metal Coating: Increases the power of Steel-type moves by 40%, and increases defense and weight when attacked.

A treasure with steel attributes.

Nanfeng's team only has two Steel-type Pokémon, Steelix and Aggron. Nanfeng decided to give Metal Coat of Refinement to Aggron, since Steelix already has Metal Coat of Flame, and he'll give the next Steel-type Pokémon to Steelix.

The reward's advanced skill cooldown is "Brick Breaker".

A Fighting-type move with a power of 75. Its main purpose is to destroy Light Screen, Reflect, and Aurora Veil.

It's a Fighting-type move specifically designed to counter defensive moves, so you can use it on your Pokémon that excel at close-quarters combat.

Put away the secret treasures and skill cooldowns.

Nanfeng flew directly to LavaCity, eager to clear the Team Magma dungeon and then watch the final battle between Groudon and Kyogre.

Land in Furnace Town, go up Chimney Mountain, just below the Volcano Project instance, a cave door is open, step inside, and a prompt will pop up in front of you.

[Enter the "Team Magma Base" instance (Special reward for first-time completion)]

Recommended entry level for this dungeon: 80

"Enter!"

Nanfeng's true form immediately appeared in Team Magma's base.

Unlike the metal structure of the Aqua Team base, the Magma Team base is more primitive.

Nanfeng felt as if he had stepped into the interior of a volcano, surrounded by rocks, with torches illuminating the space and a warm sensation emanating from his feet and spreading into the air.

And as the southerly winds blow deeper, this warmth will gradually turn into scorching heat! Chimney Mountain is an active volcano!

"I should have brought a mask in," Nanfeng muttered. He remembered that he would see lava later on, which smelled much stronger than the volcano project's odor.

Reach out and open the instance notification.

[Dungeon Objective: Defeat Crimson Pine, the leader of the Fire Rock Team]

[Side Quest: Defeat all Team Magma members. Quest hint: There are 40 targets remaining.]

[Instance Duration: 120 minutes (Countdown 119:59:50)]

"Same mission objective," Nanfeng closed the instance prompt and threw out two Poké Balls.

Gardevoir and Greninja make their appearance.

"Gardevoir, Mega Evolve! Psychic Search!" Nanfeng raised his hand and showed the Key Stone.

Gardevoir immediately donned a black wedding dress, clasped her hands together, and unleashed her psychic power to begin exploring the entire Team Magma base.

“This time, you’ll lead the way!” Nanfeng said to Greninja.

In Nanfeng's opinion, the difficulty of the Team Magma base dungeon is far less than that of Team Aqua, for a simple reason: his two main fighters, Greninja and Gyarados, are both Water-type.

Wouldn't that destroy your Magma Team?!

"Crunch!" Greninja responded softly, bent down, and propelled itself forward with its powerful legs.

The shouts of Team Magma members immediately came from ahead.

"There is an intruder!"

Immediately afterwards, a duckbill fire beast carrying a cannon barrel charged out.

But before its cannon could spew fire, Greninja's Water Shuriken had already arrived.

One weapon was driven into the chest of the Duckbill Flame Beast, causing it to cower in fear. The two cannons that had been fired into it exploded.

The battle is over.

Even before two of the five Water Shurikens could cause any damage, the Magma was instantly killed!

The elite Team Magma member who issued the warning was stunned. He had been planning to command Magmortar to slow down Southwind's advance and wait for reinforcements...

Now.

"Camel, use Tackle!" Seeing Greninja approaching step by step, the elite member of Team Magma didn't think twice and quickly threw out another Poké Ball.

But Camerupt had barely leaped out of its Poké Ball when Greninja, draped in water and wielding long white swords, pierced through it from mid-air and killed it.

Water jet + Iai Slash!

Its movements are swift and fierce, and its destructive power is terrifying!

Team Magma's elite members wanted to take out a third Poké Ball, but Greninja had already arrived in front of them and slapped them in the face.

"Slap!" A crisp slapping sound rang out.

The elite member of Team Magma was sent flying, his cheek swollen from the impact. He landed unconscious.

Greninja was relatively lenient; if it had used a knife, the Team Magma member in front of it would probably have been torn to pieces.

After taking down one, Greninja continued its charge forward.

Nanfeng followed behind, not walking too fast, as he was searching for treasure with his treasure-hunting device.

"The Fire Rock Team is really poor!" Nanfeng complained, silently putting away the treasure-hunting device.

Team Aqua's base has at least a Master Ball (0.8), but Team Magma's base not only doesn't have a Master Ball, but it doesn't even have a Mystic item.

"Since we don't have a Master Ball, let's go for a quick kill!" Nanfeng raised his hand and threw out another Poké Ball, and Garchomp entered the field.

"You go too, and fight the members of Team Magma."

Garchomp immediately charged in the opposite direction from Greninja.

Nanfeng wasn't worried at all that Garchomp and Greninja would get lost, as Mega Gardevoir would use psychic powers to indicate the location of their opponents.

As for myself...

Nanfeng walked straight towards where the Crimson Flame Pine was.

If all goes well, by the time I reach the location of the Crimson Pine, which is when Garchomp and Greninja have cleared out all the elite members and executives of Team Magma and returned to my side...

306. The brutal killing of the Crimson Flame Pine

"Boom!"

The rock gate was blasted open.

Greninja and Garchomp charged out, one on the left and one on the right.

Southwind and Gardevoir then entered the room.

Before Nanfeng lay a huge pool of lava, brightly lit by fire.

A colossal figure, entirely crimson and hundreds of meters tall, sat as if taking a bath in the lava. It was difficult to describe just how majestic its form was.

"Groud... Groudon!" Nanfeng exclaimed in astonishment, never expecting to see it here.

But before Nanfeng could even take out the Master Ball, a red light, like a wave, emanated from the edge of the lava pool. Instantly, Groudon was activated, its clear, bright eyes opening and then being enveloped in a layer of red light.

"Groudor! Go! Head to your battlefield!"

In front of the lava pool, a middle-aged man with long hair stood with his arms outstretched, his face contorted in a madness. His body was covered with red lines, like tattoos made of blood!

Its massive body immediately moved, lowered its head, and plunged straight into the magma, stirring up countless clumps of lava.

The crimson lava spilled outwards, immediately emitting a hissing sound, accompanied by a burst of white smoke filled with a pungent odor.

"It's you again?!" Chi Yansong looked at Nanfeng with icy eyes.

"However, you're too late this time. Groudon has already set off!"

Nanfeng withdrew his gaze.

I wasn't too disappointed. It was just a dungeon, and being able to see Groudon was already a pleasant surprise. Trying to catch it with a Master Ball was wishful thinking.

No problem, once I get the "Crimson Gem," it's just a matter of time before I capture Groudon.

"My target isn't Groudon, it's you!" Nanfeng looked at Red Pine.

Upon hearing this, a mocking smile appeared on Crimson Flame Pine's cold face.

"What a coincidence, I was just looking for you. Before my great undertaking is completed, it's time to kick away some obstacles in my path."

As he spoke, he threw a Poké Ball from his hand.

A fire-breathing camel landed, but its level wasn't just over 50 anymore; it had already reached level 83!

Sure enough, NPCs level up faster than players.

Greninja stepped forward; this battle would be its turn.

"Camel, Mega Evolve!" Unlike Archie, Scorch and Southwind have some grudges, so from the start, he was prepared to go all out and crush Southwind as quickly as possible!

The fire-breathing camel was enveloped in a rainbow of light. When the light faded, the two dormant volcanic humps on its back transformed into an active volcano spewing lava. Its fur grew wildly, as if covering itself with a long skirt. Gone was its usual peaceful and serene demeanor; its fur was flying and its expression was one of excitement.

"Mawoo!!"

Enemies meeting are bound to be furious. The super-fiery camel-backed volcano erupts, spewing out white smoke continuously, its fighting spirit soaring!

"Greninja, let's Mega Evolve too!" Nanfeng snapped his fingers.
