Female Trainer's Flavor Tasting Guide

After hearing Zi Yu's suggestion, Xiao Zhi's heart beat much faster, just like the speed of his falling body.

From a broad perspective of battle rules, it's obviously not okay to use Pokémon that doesn't belong to you to fight, but this is a rare opportunity.

An opportunity to challenge Infinite Pokémon head-on, and this will also be his first time fighting against a legendary Pokémon.

Since arriving in Alto Mare, Ash has been so engrossed in the legends of Infinite Pokémon that it's hard for him not to look forward to a head-on confrontation with Latias.

"Come on, use all your strength."

Xiaozhi clenched his fists and looked excitedly at the red Pokémon in front of him with the same color scheme as Hakurei Reimu.

This Latias has been flying in the air. It seems that he is a flying type, which happens to be restrained by the electric attribute.

With the blessing of rainy days, even if Latias is a "Legendary Pokémon", it may not necessarily be able to defeat him.

Besides, even if Pikachu falls, he still has several other Pokémon.

Can win!

Just as he was thinking this, he saw Zi Yu casually pointing in the direction of Pikachu.

"Latias, use meditation!"

"?"

Why did it suddenly become stronger? Hadn't Ziyu always been incredibly powerful before? Could it be that this Latias is a mythical beast with very low damage output?

Despite his doubts, Xiaozhi ordered his Pikachu to attack the opponent's weak point again.

"Pikachu, use Thunder on Latias for my sake."

"We're aiming for its wings. If the plane's wings are damaged, Latias will definitely crash."

However, Zi Yu smiled and ordered:

"Latias, become invisible."

As soon as Zi Yu finished speaking, Latias, who had been hovering in the sky, disappeared without a trace.

Although the thunderbolt hit her before she turned invisible, it obviously didn't cause much damage.

"???"

"What kind of move is this? Is there a move called 'invisibility' in this world?"

Although Xiaozhi can only be regarded as a novice trainer, he came from Pallet Town after all, and has some understanding of various Pokémon moves.

Anyway, he had never heard of such a special move as 'invisibility'.

Unless this is Latias's exclusive move, he naturally has nothing to say about it.

"Latias isn't a Pokémon, he's a god! Isn't it normal for him to have some special abilities?"

This so-called invisibility is certainly not a skill in the game, but in reality, it can be considered an extremely powerful ability.

Once you hide your form, it will be difficult for the opponent's Pokémon Trainer to give effective commands.

Even if a Pokémon can roughly sense the location of an invisible Latias, it will be difficult to defeat it completely.

"Latias, keep using Meditation while maintaining your stealth and moving quickly until all abilities are fully stacked!"

Still want to strengthen it?! How greedy are you!

Xiaozhi was extremely surprised by Zi Yu's decision.

The output power of the divine beast itself is not low. With Zi Yu's strengthening frequency, I'm afraid he is going to push the team.

What should I do? If this continues, I will definitely fail...

He raised his head slightly, only to find that Zi Yu was smiling at him.

"Believe in your Pokémon, because belief doesn't need a reason. How about you try to interrupt me?"

Zi Yu said as he gave his opponent a thumbs up.

"Believe it..."

Well, since that’s the case… since that’s the case.

Then let’s go crazy!

"Pikachu, use Discharge on the surrounding area to cover the entire area with a thunderstorm!"

"So what if we can't find the target? Just use a large-scale attack to force her out!"

Discharge itself is a large-scale move that ignores both enemies and friends. With the help of rainy days, its impact range will be much larger than usual.

And because Zi Yu and Xiao Zhi were standing under the rain, they were also not immune to the lightning attack.

At this time, Xiaozhi no longer cared about so many things.

He must win. Just like Backyard and Old Wolf’s Soul 5, Xiaozhi is now Treasure 5.

For victory, the hot-blooded Zhi Ge is willing to sacrifice his heart.

"Pikachu--"

Under the influence of the rain, the thunderstorm spread wildly in all directions, almost sending Zi Yu and Xiao Zhi himself directly into the sky.

Fortunately, they all have their own self-protection capabilities, so it didn't cause much impact.

"Oh? Is this the way to break the deadlock?"

"But sorry, aoe is no longer suitable for this version."

"Latias, show up and use Mist Ball. It's time to put an end to this."

Mist Ball is Latias's exclusive move. Before the start of the Vermilion Age, the move's power was only a pitiful 70, and it was only enhanced to 95 at the Vermilion Age.

As for the additional effect, it only reduces the opponent's special attack by 50%.

Not to mention compared with the outrageous exclusive moves of Martial Arts Bear Master, even compared with other ordinary second-level gods, it is much weaker.

This was probably designed to balance the exaggerated effect of the Heart Drop prop...

Before the seventh generation, as long as Latias and Latios carried the Heart Drop, their special attack and special defense would be multiplied by 1.5 times, which was known as the Mutant Evolution Stone.

Under this premise, if Latias is given an overly powerful exclusive move, it would be a bit outrageous.

But no matter how weak it is, Mist Ball is an exclusive move of the legendary beast after all. After Latias stacked several layers of abilities, its power is still quite exaggerated.

"It's bad! Pikachu, get out of the way!"

"Pika~!!"

Despite sensing the power gathering around him, Pikachu still couldn't tell when Latias's attack would strike.

After much thought, Pikachu, who was still unable to judge the situation, did not dodge the attack as Ash requested, but relied on his high speed to get as close to Latias as possible.

It knew in its heart that it could not hold on for much longer. It had just been attacked so many times by the baby dragon that its 'durability' had been almost completely worn out.

At this time, in order to help its owner increase the chances of winning as much as possible, it has to take some very risky actions.

For example...launch indiscriminate attacks at close range!

Even if it falls because of this, it also provides an opportunity for subsequent Pokémon to break through.

Thinking of this, Pikachu's eyes gradually became sharper.

Like Xiaozhi, Hakipi also wants to win.

"Pikachu..."

Xiaozhi, who wanted his Pokémon to dodge, may have sensed Pikachu's determination. He clenched his hands and stared at the Pokémon that was trying its best for him.

"In that case... let's just use Playful while we're in close range! I can already tell from the few moves we've exchanged that that Pokémon isn't a Flying-type at all, and it seems to be countered by Fairy-types."

"Pikachu, let's go!"

"Pickup!"

As for Latias, although Zi Yu had clearly sensed the other party's intention, he still acted extremely calm, as if he didn't care at all about this "life-threatening" fight.

He smiled and beckoned to the yellow rat.

"Come on, I'm a trainer with a very tough style. Since you want to fight me head-on so much, let's start."

"Latias, use the mist ball as a Rasengan and throw it directly at Pikachu! Maximize your damage at close range."

"Wu~"

Latias, who gained the advantage in the battle for the first time, was extremely excited and rushed straight towards Pikachu.

boom--!

The two Pokémon collided quickly, their powerful moves negating each other, and in the end even the rain disks around their bodies were wiped out.

Pikachu instantly lost its ability to fight the moment it was hit by the mist ball, but something was clearly wrong with Latias. Although it was still floating in the air, judging from her half-open eyes, the collision had also had a significant impact on her.

All I can say is that this is still a divine beast that has not grown up.

If Latias was in his prime, this small attack would not have had such a big impact.

"Thank you, Pikachu."

"The opponent has become weaker, let's leave it to other Pokémon."

After taking his partner back, Xiaozhi comforted Pikachu who was in trouble, and took out a Poké Ball, ready to send out his second Pokémon.

However, at this moment, a burst of laughter suddenly came from the opposite side of him.

"Weaker? Is that really the case?"

"Latias, take this opportunity and use self-regeneration."

"Wu~"

Latias followed the order, and her body miraculously improved, almost returning to its original state.

Self-Regeneration is a Normal-type move.

In the game, the effect of this move is to restore half of one's health, and the amount of recovery is even more exaggerated than those of tree fruits.

But unfortunately, the number of times this move can be used was reduced from 20 to 10 in the fourth generation, and from 10 to 5 in the ninth generation.

All signs indicate that all this is the fault of a certain seemingly honest and cute dead duck.

If the durability of that force wasn't so high, the self-regeneration effect wouldn't be so outrageous.

Of course, that's just a game. Realistically, self-regeneration depends entirely on the Pokémon's own abilities, and the amount of restored HP can't be calculated with a simple "50%."

For example, Latias seems to be quite suitable for using this move.

"From now on, it's all up to you, Latias."

"If you encounter an opponent who is good at physical attacks, just act like a spoiled child towards him. Once he's disabled, you can completely defeat him."

"If it's a special attacker... you know what I mean, right? If you feel like you can't hold on any longer, just use self-regeneration immediately."

Zi Yu said this and winked at Latias, then he took out a lounge chair from somewhere, with a big umbrella around it. He seemed to want to watch the show from the sidelines during the battle.

Just now, Zi Yu had Latias use meditation many times, turning its special attack output into a super firepower turret.

But the effect of Meditation is not just as simple as increasing Special Attack. In addition to increasing Special Attack, it also increases the Pokémon's Special Defense.

In other words, Latias is now an absolute special defense shield.

This special defense shield can almost ignore the damage caused to her by special attacks.

As for having Latias use Coquettish... this is simply to prevent Latias, who is relatively weak physically, from being killed instantly by powerful physical attacks.

In the game, acting like a spoiled child can directly reduce the opponent's strength by two levels, which is 50% of the original strength.

Reality may not be able to reproduce this effect, but Zi Yu’s goal can still be achieved.

Anyway, as long as he has the 'blood recovery skill' of self-regeneration, Zi Yu can just let Latias do it on his own.

Full auto combat, kid.

"You're... so arrogant?!"

Xiaozhi was confused by Ziyu's casual behavior.

How could a fight be fought like this? He had never seen such an operation before.

"Amazing! As expected of Zi Yu, everything is arranged clearly."

Xiaochun, who was standing by, watched the scene with her eyes sparkling.
