I'm not a Pokémon succubus.

Next to Zhulan, Xia Yi, with a look of indifference on her face, lay directly on the table in the special audience seats and answered her in a lazy voice.

It was different from the last time when I watched Aixia and Zhulan fight, they looked extremely serious and nervous.

At this moment, Xia Yi seemed very peaceful and at ease.

Also normal.

After all, Zhulan is really strong, and there is a real chance that Aixia will lose if she fights Zhulan, so Xia Yi was so nervous at the time, fearing that Aixia would lose.

But Fenglu...

Haha.

Then it doesn't matter.

Xia Yi had never worried that Aixia would fail in the battle with Fenglu, so there was no need to be as serious as last time.

"Well......"

Noticing Xia Yi's mood change, Zhulan glanced at Xia Yi, who was lying on the table, drowsy and about to fall asleep, with a complicated expression.

She also didn't expect that Xia Yi, who had previously presented herself as a cold and beautiful woman and was very aggressive when speaking to her, would become like this after getting to know her.

how to say......

It's quite a contrast.

But Zhulan doesn't hate it.

It is more comfortable to chat happily with Xia Yi, who is in a salted fish state, like now, than to treat each other as rivals in love and start to argue with each other as soon as they open their mouths.

"what."

Thinking of this, Zhulan couldn't help laughing out loud.

She raised her hand to support her fair forehead and shook her head helplessly.

Seeing Zhulan's actions, Xia Yi, who had already put her head on the table, looked over in confusion, with a question mark appearing above her head.

"what are you doing?"

"No, it's nothing."

Shaking her head, Zhulan naturally couldn't directly say to Xia Yi, "I don't hate you", so she just turned her gaze to the field.

"The match is about to begin, let's see how Coach Ai performs."

"What's so good about that? The probability is that he'll be three-on-one anyway. I bet he can finish the fight in ten minutes."

Although she said this, after hearing Zhulan's words, Xia Yi turned her head and looked at Aixia who was standing at one end of the venue.

"The second round of the World Championship, the round of 16, the two teams competing are Aixia and Fenglu!"

Outside the venue, a professional referee in a black and white uniform raised his arms, held up the small flag in his hand, and explained the rules of the game.

"The format of the match is three-on-three. When all three Pokémon sent by one side lose their combat capabilities, the other side will be considered the winner!"

When he said this, he glanced at Aisha intentionally or unintentionally, obviously worried that the champion would violate the rules after getting too excited again.

In response, Aixia just turned her head away silently and looked away.

He really lost his temper last time, but he is not an unreasonable or unruly person, so of course he won't do it again.

"So."

After confirming that Aisha had no objection to the rules this time, the referee breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he blew the whistle hanging around his neck vigorously. With the sharp whistle, he swung his arms down violently, and two small flags flew through the air.

"I declare that the game begins!"

"Go, Archaeopteryx!"

"I'm counting on you, Dragonite."

As soon as the referee finished speaking, Fenglu and Aisha, who were standing at the two ends of the field facing each other, threw out the Poké Balls they had been holding in their hands.

"Ow!"

What was thrown from Fenglu's hand was an orange speedball with a white bottom and a yellow lightning pattern, which seemed to imply to some extent that the Pokémon she used to lead the battle in this battle was very fast.

And the next moment, as the speed ball she threw opened in the sky, a huge figure flapped its wings, appeared in the flashing light, and landed on the ground.

"Ow!"

The Pokémon raised its snake-like head and let out a loud, but not very pleasant howl.

As soon as it appeared, there were some exclamations from the audience.

"That's the Archaeopteryx?"

Someone made such a sound.

That's right.

This bird Pokémon, which is shaped like a pterosaur, is huge, covered with bright blue, green and yellow feathers, has red claws and a long tail, and a head as ferocious as a python. It was active in ancient times long before the modern times and is said to be the ancestor of all bird Pokémon, the Archosaur!

This kind of Pokémon has become extinct in modern times. If you want to obtain it, you can only use the fossil resurrection technology developed by Devon Company to dig up fossils and revive it. It is a rare and precious Pokémon. No one expected that Fenglu would actually take out an Archaeopteryx here.

"Roar--!!"

However, before everyone could express their admiration for the appearance of the Archaeopteryx, a violent roar erupted from the blue sky.

Emerging from the advanced ball thrown by Aisha, the Tyrannosaurus spread its axe-shaped wings in the air, which were blood-red as if they were soaked in blood.

Its body is even larger than that of Archaeopteryx, and its roar is ferocious enough to make timid audiences tremble, and is many times more domineering than the unpleasant howl of Archaeopteryx.

One of the quasi-god Pokémon of the Hoenn region, a flying and dragon-attribute Pokémon that can only be seen in Meteor Falls, Dragonite!

In terms of rarity, this one is even more precious than Archaeopteryx, which was resurrected from fossils to the modern era. It is completely at the level of a living fossil.

"Roar!"

It lowered its head and locked its gaze on the Archaeopteryx standing on the ground. The look in the Tyrannosaurus's eyes was so ferocious that the Archaeopteryx, targeted by it, shuddered involuntarily and retreated backwards.

hum!

A weakened blue light flashed across the Archaeopteryx's body at the moment it was frightened.

Intimidating properties!

When Dragonite appears, it can reduce the physical attack of the opponent's Pokémon by one level.

The Archaeopteryx happens to be a type with higher physical attack than special attack, and this effect just weakens its output.

"what."

Standing behind the Ancestral Bird, Feng Lu raised his head and looked at the Dragonite flapping its blood-red wings that were wide enough to cover the sky and the sun, flying in the vast sky. Its blue body complemented the azure sky, and a smile of "as expected" appeared on his face.

"Sure enough, it has evolved..."

Looking at the Dragonite that had fulfilled its long-cherished wish and grown wings, now able to fly freely in the sky, Fenglu smiled with emotion.

The last time we met, Dragonite wasn't yet Dragonite. It was still a Carapace Dragon that needed Aisha to fly it into the sky before it could experience the feeling of flying.

I didn't expect that when we met again, the silly-looking Kabutosaurus would turn into such a mighty and domineering Dragonite, and even become my rival...

"Hey."

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from the enormous Dragonite hovering in the sky, Feng Lu sighed.

Now he's going to be killed by Dragonite.

"Archaeopteryx..."

Not only Fenglu was looking at Dragonite, but on the other side, Aisha was also looking at the Ancestral Bird with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

As one of the two fossil Pokémon in the Unova region, Archaeopteryx is also a very special Pokémon.

This thing is very abstract.

Its total racial value is very high, a full 567, even 17 points higher than the 550 of Windy and Vulcano.

Among them, the speed of 110 and the physical attack of 140 also make it an excellent high-speed physical attacker. Although the special attack of 112 is not as good as the physical attack, it is also very high. Combined with its good special attack skill pool, it can even use dual swords without any problem.

Logically speaking, with such a configuration, Archaeopteryx should be very powerful even if its attributes are relatively poor in Flying and Rock. At least it should be able to compete with its predecessor, the Fossil Pokémon Pteranodon, which also has the composite attributes of Flying and Rock.

But the bad thing is this guy's characteristics!

Generally speaking, even if a Pokémon's characteristics don't add points to its combat power, they shouldn't deduct points either.

However, Archaeopteryx, which has a racial stat of 567, has a garbage characteristic that is a drag on its team, just like the legendary Pillar King Regichikas!

weak......

This is a purely negative trait that not only has no positive effects, but also reduces the physical attack and special attack of the Pokémon with this trait by half after the Pokémon's physical strength is lost by more than half!

Tribute to the legendary garbage feature slow start belongs to.

It is precisely because of its weak characteristics that it is holding it back that, in terms of combat effectiveness, Archaeopteryx is actually not worthy of carrying the shoes of the Pterosaurs, whose racial value is clearly lower than its own.

If you let Aisha choose, he would choose Pterosaur without hesitation compared to Archaeopteryx, which may activate its weak characteristic at any time and reduce its originally high dual attack by half.

Although Pteranodon has a Hard Head trait, it can neither use Double Headbutt nor Bravebird's Charge. Its skill pool is so humorous that it seems to have offended the designer. However, after Mega Evolution, it can also use the Hard Claws trait to become a very good high-speed physical attacker, which is much more useful than Archaeopteryx, whose trait is locked in the weakness.

Judging from Fenglu's expression, it was obvious that she had been tortured by this precious characteristic of the Archaic Bird more than once.

Then.

"I'm a kind-hearted person. I can't bear to see you suffer from the slow start of the replica, so I won't give it a chance to trigger. I'll kill the Archaic Bird with full health."

With a kind face and speaking the most terrifying words in the gentlest tone, Aisha gave the order to attack the Dragonite flying in the air.

"Dragonstorm, use Dragon Dive!"

"Don't say such terrifying things to me while smiling!" Fenglu wailed upon hearing Aixia's words and ordered the Ancestral Bird to attack: "Ancestral Bird, go all out and use your might to attack with sharp stones!"

Fenglu yelled.

It's not that she was exaggerating, but she knew very well that with the difference in combat power between Dragonite and Archaeopteryx, if it didn't go all out now, it would never have the chance to go all out.

"Ow..."

Locked in by the surging murderous aura of Dragonite that was as turbulent as a tsunami, the Ancestral Bird trembled all over and subconsciously wanted to retreat.

But when it was halfway cowardly, it suddenly realized that it had not been hit yet and its weak characteristic had not been activated, so it became tough again.

"Ow!"

With a strange cry, the Archaeopteryx gripped the ground with its feet and raised its wings wrapped in colorful feathers high, and countless sharp rocks appeared around it.

call out!

The next moment, facing the Tyrannosaurus soaring in the sky, the Archaeobotan launched all the sharp stones in one breath.

The tip flashed with a cold light, and the sharp stone attacked like a missile, locking onto the head and neck of the Tyrannosaurus Rex and rushing towards the blue sky.

"Roar!"

However, Dragonite did not dodge and swooped down directly.

It flapped its wings behind it vigorously, increasing its flying speed to the extreme.

Violent dragon-attribute energy gushed out from its body, turning into a blazing purple flame that enveloped the sturdy body of the Dragonite.

"Roar--!!"

Opening its mouth, a breathtaking and violent roar came out from the mouth of the Tyrannosaurus, which made the Archaeopteryx standing on the ground and the audience present tremble.

The next second, dragging purple flames and drawing a gorgeous purple light path in the blue sky, it faced the sharp stone attack launched by the Archaic Bird head-on.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Accompanied by a series of explosions, the sharp stone attacks that rose into the sky like anti-aircraft missiles all bombarded the torso and neck of the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

The attack from Archaeopteryx, which had extremely high physical attack, flying and rock attributes, did not trigger the weak characteristic. The Stone Attack, which had a double restraining effect on Dragonite, dealt full damage, but failed to pose even the slightest threat to Dragonite as it dived towards the ground.

Even its flying speed was not slowed down by the attack of the Archaeopteryx. It dived straight down and hit the latter.

boom!

There was a loud bang, and the battlefield seemed to be shaken by the dragon dive of Dragonite.

Deep cracks spread across the ground like a spider web, even reaching the feet of Feng Lu who was standing in the command seat.

"babble!"

The ground collapsed under his feet, Feng Lu lost his balance, his body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground.
