I caught a Pokémon

Thinking this, he took a Poké Ball out of his pouch and held it in his hand.

"I only have this one Dragon-type Pokémon with me right now. If you want to fight, then come and battle."

"Only one Dragon-type Pokémon?" Langley frowned and muttered, "How can someone call themselves a Dragon-type trainer with just one Dragon-type Pokémon?"

“I think you’ve got it wrong.” Xia You looked at her calmly. “First, I have never called myself a Dragon-type trainer. I just happen to have a Dragon-type Pokémon. Second, you challenged me first. If you don’t want to fight, you can leave now.”

Langley stared at Xia You for a while, then chuckled.

"I didn't say I wouldn't fight," she laughed. "Even though it's only one Dragon-type Pokémon, well... it's okay, consider it a workout."

As he spoke, he took out his Poké Ball.

"Let me show you how to deal with dragons!"

As she threw the Poké Ball, a bear appeared in front of Xia You amidst a flash of blue light.

As soon as it landed, the tundra bear let out a roar, looking quite imposing.

This is also somewhat similar to the temperament of the girl named Langley.

It's true that the type of trainer you have determines the type of Pokémon you have.

Seeing that the other party had already drawn their sword, Xia You naturally wouldn't hold back either.

"Dragonite, come out."

He gently pressed the switch on the Poké Ball, and in a flash of light, his Dragonite appeared in front of Langrei and Ursaring.

Unlike the Tundra Bear, Dragonite didn't make any exaggerated movements after it appeared. It just stood there quietly with a憨厚 (honest and simple) look on its face.

This made Langley's expression somewhat disappointed.

There's absolutely no sign of it being powerful!

This also made her less excited about the match.

"Dragonite?" She frowned. "That's it? Do you have any other Dragon-type Pokémon?"

Xia You chuckled.

I feel like I'm being looked down upon.

Other Dragon-type Pokémon?

Of course he has it.

Speaking of Dragon-type Pokémon, he hasn't caught many, only three and a half in total.

First, there was Dragonite, which was also the first Dragon-type Pokémon he caught. Next was the black Rayquaza, then Dialga, the god of time. As for the half...

It only acquires the Dragon attribute after Charizard Mega Evolves into its X form, so it can only be considered half a dragon.

And these three half-Dragon-type Pokémon...

Aside from Dragonite, doesn't Langora just explode on the spot no matter which one it attacks?

Dragonite is the most normal and the least eye-catching, but unexpectedly it was disliked just because of its 'plain appearance'!

This is really...

Shaking his head, Xia You smiled and said, "Let's beat my Dragonite first. If you can really defeat it, I can make an exception and let you see some stronger ones, but... I don't have much hope for your Pokémon."

Now it was Langley's turn to feel looked down upon.

He... he actually said his Tundra Bear couldn't beat Dragonite!?

I am the Dragon Destroyer!

And isn't Ice-type obviously superior to Dragon-type?

Not to mention, Dragonite is a Flying/Dragon type, which means it's completely countered by itself.

I really don't know where this man gets his confidence from!

Unwilling to say anything more to him, Langley now only hoped that the battle would begin as soon as possible so that this man could see how powerful he was!

As for Xia You, he also didn't want to waste any more time on this girl.

This led to a quick agreement between the two sides, who found an open space and got ready to fight.

Once the two players and their two Pokémon were all ready, the battle in the wild, with no referee, officially began.

Just as a clump of wild grass beside them was being gently swayed by the wind, Langley gave the order.

"Tundra Bear, use Ice Punch!"

Speaking of the Pokémon Beari, Xia You wasn't unfamiliar with it because she had battled Beari from the Ice Masked Hellscream at the Snowflake Gym.

The image of the tundra bear is based on the polar bear. It is extremely large and tall, at least 2.6 meters tall, and its whole body is covered with thick white fur. On its chin, there are three 'whiskers' that look like icicles.

As an evolved form of Bearsnatch, Bearsnatch is a single Ice-type Pokémon.

It generally lives in the cold northern lands. It is a fierce carnivorous Pokémon that is good at swimming. It likes the cold northern sea and will swim and wander energetically in the cold sea in search of food. Once it catches its prey, it will exhale cold air to freeze and preserve it.

It can freeze its own breath at will. When it feels tired, it will exhale and freeze the seawater to rest on the ice surface, or create ice teeth and ice claws to fight. Known as the White Demon in the North, it is feared by the locals and is the highest-ranking hunter in the ice field region.

At Langre's command, the Tundra Bear roared and charged at the Dragonite, its massive fist enveloped in an icy blue light.

Xia You remained calm in the face of such an attack.

He also wanted to see how this Dragon Destroyer's Tundra Bear differed from Hachiku's Tundra Bear.

Without Xia You's command, Dragonite raised its two claws and clenched them into fists. In an instant, blinding electricity formed and flashed on its fists. It didn't even dodge or fly directly at the enemy; it just went straight for them.

The interaction between electric light and cold air.

A clash between lightning fist and ice fist.

This response really surprised Langley.

After all, it is well known that Ursaring is an extremely powerful Pokémon, and it is four times super effective against it, so how dare this Dragonite go head-to-head with it?

Are it and its trainer crazy, or are you dreaming?!

Just when she thought the man was being reckless and began to doubt his professionalism, an even more unbelievable scene unfolded.

Not only did the Dragonite dodge the Tundra Bear's Ice Punch, but it also landed a powerful Thunder Punch on the Tundra Bear's face during an opening!

boom!

The tundra bear's massive body flew backward, sliding a long distance in the puddle and splashing up a large spray of water.

It struggled to get up, but as the electric current flowed through its body, it unfortunately fell into a state of paralysis!

Langley was stunned.

"This...how is this possible?"

This Dragonite is incredibly strong! It sent its own Tundra Bear flying with a single punch!?

Are you kidding me?!

My own Tundra Bear actually lost in a power clash with Dragonite!?

How could such a thing possibly happen in this world?!

Chapter 1377 Langley

Coming to his senses, Langley gritted his teeth.

Although the recent exchange surprised her greatly, she also realized that the reason why the Tundra Bear was knocked away was not because it lost to the Dragonite in terms of strength, but because of its technique.

Whether in terms of experience or physical ability, Dragonite is superior. It was because it dodged the Tundra Bear's punch that Dragonite was able to land a punch on the Tundra Bear's face in the subsequent move.

The head is always a relatively vulnerable part of all living things. Once hit, the brain will have a brief blank, so it is normal to be blown away.

But I won't be careless a second time!

Langley spoke again, intending to command the Tundra Bear to get up and re-engage with Dragonite.

But just as the tundra bear made a move, the electric current from the Thunder Fist flowed through its entire body, and due to the paralysis, its movements paused slightly, and it froze in place for a moment.

This naturally gave Dragonite an opportunity to take advantage.

With a flap of its small wings, it flew to the Tundra Bear and then used a clean and smooth combo to knock the clumsy Pokémon to the ground.

Even if Langley wanted to launch a counterattack, he wouldn't have a chance.

I felt incredibly frustrated by the defeat, as I couldn't even display the full strength expected of a Tundra Bear.

How could she possibly accept this?

"Again!" Her face flushed slightly as she said defiantly, "I didn't even get to unleash the full power of the Tundra Bear. If I hadn't been unlucky enough to trigger the paralysis status just now, I would definitely have won!"

Xia You actually understood her feelings.

After all, they were the ones who initiated the challenge, but their Pokémon was knocked to the ground after only one punch, losing face in front of so many people. They would definitely try to make up for it.

As for Xia You, Dragonite had only warmed up just now. He had finally managed to release it into battle, and he didn't want to recall it so soon.

"In that case, you can send out another Pokémon."

Hearing the 'indifference' in Xia You's tone, Langley clenched his fist, but also thought to himself, 'Just what I wanted.' Then, as if afraid that Xia You would change her mind, he recalled the Tundra Bear and took out a second Poké Ball.

"Well then, this is mine next. Come forth—Koma-tachi Soldier!"

Like most of the Pokémon Xia You had seen here, Gryphon was a Pokémon that had never appeared in previous regions and was only encountered after setting foot in Unova.

Unlike the Ice-type Ursaring, Gryphon is a humanoid Pokémon with arms like swords, a head that looks like it's wearing a samurai helmet, and armor made of blades. It is only about half a meter tall.

Since it was the first time they had encountered each other, Xia You's Rotom Pokédex flew over the Koma Blade minion and scanned it.

"Pokémon, a weapon-type Pokémon, is Dark/Steel. Its abilities are Defiant or Inner Focus, and its hidden ability is Overpower. It is a Pokémon whose entire body is made of blades. It forms a clan led by Bisharp and attacks enemies according to Bisharp's orders. Its goal is to one day lead its kind, so it trains tirelessly every day. It is not afraid to challenge even strong enemies. In battle, it will wield its sharp blades to drive its enemies to the brink of defeat, tightly grab its prey and insert the blades into its body to slowly torture it, even if it is injured itself."

It must be said that although this Pokémon is not tall, it gives people a cool and calm feeling.

Judging from its appearance alone, it is quite popular with boys, especially when it eventually evolves into the Servant General, which makes it look even more like a majestic warrior.

Once they appeared, under the sunlight, the body of the soldier with the dagger seemed to gleam with a cold light.

But to be honest, although it looks like a sharp blade, whether it's its evolution stage or the aura it exudes, this Pokémon is not as good as the Tundra Bear from before.

Even the Tundra Bear couldn't do anything to Dragonite, so what can it do now that there's no type advantage?

Using it, you want to become a dragon destroyer?

Is it...

Just like the tundra bear just now, this girl named Langley's favorite and best style is to break through head-on and confront her opponent head-on.

Or is it that she didn't actually have a better choice?

Regardless of Langley's thoughts, this second battle, which she saw as a chance to regain face, began at this moment.

As soon as the attack began, Langley continued with his previous strategy and launched another offensive.

"A sneak attack on a vital point!"

Under Langley's command, the Piketo Grunt transformed into a black shadow and charged straight at the Dragonite.

To be honest, Xia You is best at dealing with straightforward players like this.

Hmm... it's just like any other practice session.

It's just that its small size makes it slightly more agile, but this advantage is greatly reduced when facing a Pokémon that can fly.

In any case, Yami, Hikari, and Makomo, who were watching from the sidelines, had very little faith in Langley.

Of course, even if it were a champion or one of the Four Heavenly Kings, they wouldn't be optimistic about either of them.

Because in their hearts, Xia You is the strongest one!

Sure enough, Dragonite didn't exert much effort at all when facing this agile little guy, and easily and neatly defeated it.

This left Langley speechless.

Another...another loss!?

My two Pokémon couldn't even defeat the Dragonite, let alone pose a threat to it!?

This…this…

That's incredible!

This time, Langley finally realized that it wasn't that he had performed poorly, but that his opponent was simply too strong!
