Chapter 523 Green Fishpond Killer Yu
When the nearly three-meter-tall, uniquely shaped, earth-colored deer Pokémon appeared in front of Qingyu, the entire venue fell silent instantly.
After a long pause, someone finally spoke up curiously: "Wait, why did Teacher Yu suddenly pull out a Pokémon we've never seen before?"
"She seems to have a very strong presence. Could this be Teacher Yu's trump card, a dirty trick she's prepared specifically for this competition?"
"That doesn't make sense either. Who goes all out right from the start? You have to save your power for a stronger enemy!"
"You're right, but who knows how much of a secret Teacher Yu is hiding?"
"That makes sense!"
Seeing a brand new Pokémon that has never appeared in the Pokédex during a competition is certainly outrageous, but when the audience thinks that it was Blue Feather who did this, they are not so surprised.
After all, he's Teacher Yu. Even if he suddenly pulled out the creator god Arceus in the middle of a fight, the audience probably wouldn't be too surprised.
Of course, as the saying goes, laymen watch the spectacle, while experts see the details.
For the other contestants, especially the two veterans, the Pokémon that Qingyu pulled out was truly eye-catching.
"I never expected that Qingyu would actually be hiding Pokémon I'd never seen before, really—"
Sitting in the players' lounge, Professor Oak's face lit up with joy and his eyes shone brightly, but he shook his head helplessly.
"Although its aura is indeed very strong, it is most likely a legendary Pokémon," but its positioning is probably more similar to Entei and Suicune, and it does not have particularly powerful abilities.
"I didn't expect Qingyu to remember what I casually said. Is she planning to use this opportunity to reveal more unknown legends?"
"However, it would be even better if we could see that legendary true dragon—"
Grandma Kikuko, standing to the side, couldn't help but roll her eyes and tap the floor with her cane.
"Old man Ooki, are you planning to destroy those two kids over there?"
The two children standing opposite Qingyu, trembling, looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old.
It takes courage enough to face the Sinnoh Champion head-on; if they were to encounter a legendary Pokémon beyond their ability to handle—
It would absolutely be a disaster.
However, that child knew how to behave appropriately.
Kikuko looked down at the giant deer with a bronze cauldron on its head. Although it exuded an ominous aura, it didn't look like a creature to be trifled with.
but----
To be honest, their strength is probably just so-so.
It might not even be as good as the Garchomp that Zhu Lan girl next to Qing Yu has.
If he were to use a more compatible team of Pokémon, the results would likely be much better than with this deer.
Simply put, it looks impressive, but it's actually been downplayed.
That kid isn't as stubborn as Da Mu; he knows how to behave properly.
Grandma Kikuko smiled and nodded in satisfaction.
If you can't even get past this hurdle, then you're here to gain experience, and it's perfectly normal to be eliminated at any time.
Seeing that she stopped talking, Professor Oak could only scratch his head awkwardly before focusing his gaze on the magnificent giant deer.
This is firsthand Pokémon data, so we need to observe it carefully!
Such heavy pressure!
On the field, Xiao Feng and Xiao Nan exchanged a glance, and through their telepathic connection as twins, they could clearly sense that they were both a little out of breath.
Is it because of that Flower Rock Monster?
No, unless it's an absurdly powerful legendary being, the oppressive effect couldn't possibly be as strong as it is now, practically suffocating the two of them.
Especially that invisible aura targeting superpowers—
Because they are all superpowered, their feelings are particularly strong.
Both of them looked at the ancient cauldron deer at the same time, and immediately made the same judgment in their minds that it might be the Pokémon they had never seen before!
Therefore, it must be resolved first!
"Sunrock/Moonstone, use Sunny Day/Sunbeam!"
Because the twins can achieve perfect unity of thought, they can even resonate with each other's voices and give commands simultaneously.
Although the opponent's attributes are not yet clear, it is obvious that the guy is very effective against superpowers, so normal moves cannot be used to deal with it.
Xiao Feng and Xiao Nan are indeed young, but they are still gym leaders, so their combat instincts are quite sharp.
Moreover, their telepathic connection allows them to work together seamlessly to pull off many clever tricks.
only----
"Flower Rockruff, switch places."
"Ancient Cauldron Deer, a great disaster!"
Qingyu and Zhulan seemed to be waiting for the other to make the first move, and then immediately retaliating.
After the clear sky energy entered the air, a blurry image suddenly appeared before Moonstone, who had just aimed at the target and was ready to unleash a beam of sunlight. Then, the mountain-like ancient cauldron deer disappeared instantly.
In the center of their vision was only the Flower Rock Monster, its face contorted in a mocking manner, seemingly taunting its opponent.
To be fair, the Pokémon sent out by both sides in this battle were surprisingly slow, but there were obviously not many restrictions on the use of switching areas.
Moonstone had no time to spare; it could only concentrate on unleashing all the solar energy it had absorbed toward the Flower Rock Monster in front of it.
The effect was naturally not very good, and the Flower Rock Monster's sinister and terrifying face could not show the extent of its injuries.
But immediately afterward, the ancient cauldron deer on the other side unleashed a terrifying aura. The surging black energy seemed to materialize and form waves that sprayed out towards the moonstone!
After being overwhelmed by pure malicious energy, Xiao Nan immediately felt that Yue Shi's physical strength was rapidly decreasing.
Although it wouldn't immediately render it unable to fight, it was still quite terrifying.
Can I withstand a second hit from the same attack?
Since they had never seen the move that Gu Dinglu had just used, Xiao Feng and Xiao Nan had no idea how to deal with it.
But what good is rotation?
It's either about switching to a Pokémon in the back row to take the hit head-on, or relying on defense to force a delay for one round.
They are all dying slowly.
So, we still have to go all out and try to take down that ancient cauldron deer first!
The idea was gradually becoming clearer, but now another new problem has arisen.
Xiao Feng and Xiao Nan exchanged a glance, their faces showing hesitation.
Will the champion of Bamboo Orchid use the move of switching sides again in this round?
Even if the Sunbeam might be very effective against the Ancient Cauldron Deer, it only works if it hits first; if it's dodged, then it's game over.
At this moment, the game suddenly transformed into the rock-paper-scissors game they had once enjoyed.
Guess if I need to switch venues?
The champion of Bamboo Orchid still had a gentle smile, but it made them shrink back involuntarily.
How terrifying! Adults' hearts are indeed too dark!
"Never mind, let's just go for it!"
"If the two Pokémon each fight on opposite sides, then there's no need for strategic maneuvering!"
After some deliberation, Xiaofeng and Xiaonan quickly gave their next command: "Sun Rock/Moon Stone, use Solar Beam!"
The two Pokémon had already quietly built up their power using the effect of Sunny Day, so they did not make any obvious moves before unleashing Solar Beam.
Almost instantly, two beams of green energy shot forward, each targeting a different Pokémon.
"Tsk, he's still too young."
Qingyu shook her head and did not react.
At first glance, it does seem that way. In this way, the Ancient Deer will be attacked no matter what, and the Flower Rock Monster on the other side will also take some damage.
However, for the Ancient Deer with the "Cauldron of Calamity" ability, the already extremely weak Special Attack ability of Sunrock is just a tickle.
Even if you stand still and take a direct hit from a solar beam, it won't have any effect.
This information gap will lead to a crushing defeat that can be described as a massacre.
"An ancient cauldron and deer, an eye for an eye."
"Flower Rock Monster, Trick Space!"
As planned, Qingyu chose to withstand the attack and then counterattack using the effects of her moves.
Meanwhile, the Flower Rock Monster continued to play the role of a support character, attempting to completely and utterly destroy the already precarious balance of power.
The sunlight beam from the Sun Rock did indeed hit the Ancient Cauldron Deer, but there was no reaction on its face; it only staggered back a few steps due to the impact.
When he looked up again, the eyes beneath the giant cauldron were filled with rage.
After its forehooves rubbed the ground several times, the Ancient Cauldron Deer suddenly lunged forward, knocking Sun Rock, who had just unleashed his attack and had no time to react, flying off the field.
Upon hitting the ground, Sun Rock, unsurprisingly, rolled his eyes back and immediately passed out.
After that, the Flower Rock Monster finally accumulated enough energy and enveloped the entire battlefield with a strange super-powerful field.
On the stands, Qinglu seemed lost in thought.
"The effect of 'an eye for an eye' is—if you've been damaged before using the move, the move's power will be greatly increased due to your rage?"
"That really is a playing style very much like Teacher Yu's."
"Even though it seemed like he barely exerted any effort, he had already effortlessly brought his opponent to the brink of mental collapse." Crimson nodded silently to the side.
More than the situation, he was actually more concerned about how Teacher Yu would use the Ancient Cauldron Deer.
It's impossible to predict what a Pokémon that has never been discovered before will do in a battle, let alone guess its type and moves.
As Qinglu said, it is Teacher Yu's best style of using information to secure victory by a hair's breadth.
If it were you, how would you break this deadlock?
While observing the area below for any new opportunities, Crimson was also silently considering countermeasures.
Should we just use Venusaur to hypnotize that troublesome guy?
Or should we just use Kirby to win head-on?
He actually had quite a few strategies in mind, but it seemed that the two gym owners on the other side couldn't use any of them.
This is the disadvantage of trainers who are proficient in a single type; once they encounter a type that they cannot handle, they may suffer a complete defeat.
No wonder Coach Yu often says that to become a champion, you must develop in all aspects, or at least not be too badly suppressed by others.
Just like those four Heavenly Kings from Kanto, right?
Chi Hong nodded, feeling that he had learned a lot again.
He did indeed have new insights, and the audience also found it very funny to see Qingyu playing like a dragon in a low-skill game. After all, Teacher Yu was obviously letting the game go, otherwise, with his and Cynthia's strength, if they had just sent out Lucario and Garchomp, they probably would have easily defeated them in a few rounds.
Even though the situation remains one-sided, it's clear to anyone with a discerning eye that this is a "lesson-teaching" exercise.
O
Could it be that Coach Yu's professional habit has kicked in, and he wants to play the role of an expert and guide the younger generation in a high-level golf tournament?
However, judging from the time it took Teacher Yu to become the head of the gym —
It's really hard to say who is the senior among them.
It seems that only the siblings Xiaofeng and Xiaonan were hurt.
Especially Xiao Feng, the younger brother, felt his vision go black when he saw Sun Rock being knocked down and the magic space lighting up on the field.
Because their team consisted entirely of Psychic-type Pokémon, they were completely countered by that Ancient Deer. Now that they'd lost even the initiative, its next moves wouldn't just be a simple tit-for-tat.
Xiao Nan was also on the verge of tears.
They came to participate in the competition simply because they are very good at doubles, and even the dojo challenges are conducted in doubles format.
I originally thought that even if they couldn't win the championship, their teamwork would still allow them to achieve a decent ranking.
But who could have imagined that not only were all the contestants top-notch, but even two legendary figures they had only heard of had come to participate.
Moreover, he just happened to run into Teacher Yu, such a jinx, in the first round —
It can only be said that if it weren't for the dignity of the museum owner, they would have wanted to abstain immediately.
But after all, he's Teacher Yu. Maybe I can learn something from fighting him?
That's what the students in Padiya were saying in the live stream!
With this thought in mind, Xiao Feng once again revealed a look of resignation as he took out another Poké Ball from his pocket.
"Go, Gallade!"
A few minutes later, the game ended smoothly.
The crushing 4-0 scoreline is enough to prove that there is a huge gap in strength between the two sides.
The audience was not surprised by this result; rather, they had deeply appreciated the resilience of the two young restaurant owners.
Most people would probably run away as soon as they saw Teacher Yu!
"To be honest, even though Teacher Yu has gone this far, I still feel like she's being sneaky."
"After all, he's Teacher Yu. It seems to be his pleasure to torture his opponents while using combat as a teaching method. He even uses this approach in the competition!"
"Teacher Yu, a terrifyingly skilled killer in the fishpond!"
The audience erupted in applause, and the two teams of players walked to the center and shook hands after recalling their Pokémon.
"Telepathy is indeed a very convenient ability, and the combination attack of Sunny Day Beam is also quite interesting, but—"
When shaking hands with Xiaofeng, Qingyu subconsciously entered the debriefing phase and began to give her pointers.
"Using this tactic when the opponent's information is not yet clear is a bit of a gamble."
"Since we guessed that the Ancient Deer has the Dark type, perhaps it would be better to switch to Gallade for a better defensive setup from the start."
Xiao Feng and Xiao Nan looked at each other in bewilderment.
Actually, they had considered it, but the problem was that Yigu Dinglu's teammate was a Ghost-type Lupus, and they had even used Switcheroo openly!
If Gallade's Divine Sword had been read during the field switch, it would have definitely become a memorable moment in today's match!
Even if I lose, I can't become someone else's source of amusement, waaaaaah!
Xiao Feng and Xiao Nan exchanged a silent glance, both reading obvious confusion in each other's eyes.
Teacher Yu, we really don't have your ridiculously high reading ability!
