Once the battle begins, the lineups of both sides are quickly displayed on the screen.
"What kind of lineup is this?"
Upon seeing Teacher Yu's lineup, Da Ye immediately scratched his head and blurted out.
Why are they even using the "Slave King"? It seems like only the Hoenn Gym Leader knows how to use this in the whole world.
"Has Teacher Yu developed some new trick?"
A-Liu wasn't quite sure either; her eyes were fixed on the screen, and her brows furrowed slightly involuntarily.
At first glance, all the Pokémon seem to lack any distinctive features, and they're generally not very strong, right?
"wrong!"
Only Wusong, who had a better understanding of psychic Pokémon, realized something was wrong.
After his brain raced for a dozen seconds, he quickly concluded, "We absolutely need to be extra careful with Teacher Yu, this queen of taking leave!"
Both Alolan Raichu and Medicham possess the Psychic type.
In other words, they are likely to use a very uncommon but crucial support move for Slaking.
Features interchangeable!
Even Wu Song was caught off guard for a moment.
If it weren't for the fact that this "Slave King" was so eye-catching that it made him subconsciously think about Teacher Yu's intentions, he probably wouldn't have thought of this move at all.
He wasn't familiar with Alolan Raichu, but Medicham was one of the Pokémon he frequently used.
"If Çalhanoukville were to give his Yoga Power trait to Slacker—"
After muttering to himself for a moment, Wusong's eyes revealed a determined look.
"We absolutely cannot let him succeed!"
"hiss-"
Wusong's reminder made Daye and Aliu both gasp in surprise.
"Goodness, even the strongman is taking leave now?"
"As expected of Teacher Yu—"
This is a truly imaginative idea that most people wouldn't come up with!
Observing Wusong's lineup, Qingyu also fell into deep thought.
Bronze Bell, Symbol Bird, Slowbro, Gallade, Medicham, Espeon.
Judging from the lineup, it's not really certain whether Wusong will choose a space-time strategy or a fast-paced, aggressive approach.
However, Qingyu was confident in his judgment: "Given Wusong's level and his expertise as a superhuman, he should have been able to see through my tactics before the battle even began."
"So, in order to counter his own trait swap, his starting lineup should be—"
"Is it the symbol bird and Gallade?"
The strategy of openly protecting Slaking is easy to counter; just eliminate Slaking instantly.
Therefore, utilize the speed advantage of the Symbolic Bird to initiate Tailwind first, then let Gallade unleash a Sacred Sword attack...
If it's a Gallade going all out, it might actually be able to take down Slaking in one hit.
However, after a moment's thought, Aoba still chose the normal combination of Slaking and Medicham.
The backcourt consists of Electric Pelican and Alola Reichu.
With his starting lineup confirmed, the arena screen quickly appeared. The virtual images of Qingyu and Wusong stood on the battlefield. After both sides threw four Poké Balls at the same time, the starting Pokémon appeared in front of the audience.
There's no need to elaborate on Qingyu's side.
Just as he predicted, Wusong on the opposite side chose to start with Symbol Bird and Gallade.
[666, Teacher Yu really can predict the future, she's not even acting anymore!]
[Even with cheats, you can't know who the opponent will start. Streamer, you're even better than Gui Du, that's ridiculous.]
[Click here! This is Teacher Yu's signature pre-reading, all about hard work and sweat, without a single numerical value!]
[Teacher Yu is still too overpowered. He went toe-to-toe with two top players in the Masters Tournament. Predicting the moves of the new top player would be a piece of cake for him, wouldn't it?]
That's actually true!
Because of the successful pre-read, the comments section was full of praise for Qingyu.
However, he didn't have time to look at these things at the moment.
Although Wusong has only been in the position of Heavenly King for a short time, his strength is absolutely unquestionable.
He may still be some distance from the championship, but he is considered to be above average among the top players. If he continues to improve, he may have a chance to compete for the championship.
Moreover, he has a good understanding of tactics, solid combat skills, and is very flexible in combat.
You can tell from his ability to quickly see through your tactical thinking that he definitely had a counter-strategy planned out.
It's just a pity...
"That's how the game works in a battle. As long as you always calculate one step ahead of your opponent, you will naturally have a significant advantage."
After saying this meaningful sentence, Qingyu immediately spoke the moment the countdown to the start of the battle ended:
"Please excuse the king, use the 'Taunt' skill on the target bird!"
"Medicham, high-five and ambush! Target Gallade!"
As he gave the commands, Wusong instantly shouted, "Symphony, Tailwind! Gallade, use the Excalibur on Slaking!"
Commands were given from both sides in succession.
Relying on its psychic powers, Medicham on Qingyu's side took the initiative and instantly appeared in front of Gallade, blocking its path.
At the same time, before Gallade could make its move, Medicham suddenly slapped it in front of it, instantly stunning it.
Unless Gallade uses Mega Evolution to gain the Psychic ability that grants immunity to Cowardice, this slap would obviously cause it considerable psychological trauma, causing it to subconsciously retract the gleaming elbow blade in its hand.
On the other side, the symbol bird, who wanted to use the favorable wind to assist its teammates, was about to flap its wings when it suddenly noticed that the lying-down Dynasty on the other side had beckoned with its finger.
The bird's rage instantly soars into the sky, triggering the provocation effect.
For the next period of time, it will only be able to use offensive moves.
And the command Wusong just gave it to use the tailwind can no longer be executed.
In just one exchange, Qingyu's side had already gained a considerable advantage.
[Good heavens, wouldn't this count as a double blockade? It's like Wusong didn't do anything at all!]
[Wow, the King of Leave is so fast! The harbinger bird was about to take off, and it completely interrupted it.]
[Upstairs, if the King of Slave were to get serious, he'd be a numerical monster too!]
As the comments said, with similar configurations on both sides, even if the Symbol Bird pushes its speed to the limit, it still can't outrun Slaking.
Unless Wusong brings it a special kind of coin.
But a player who clearly needs to compensate for their output and has a strong lead with a coin is quite abstract to think about.
Given Wusong's personality, he would never make such an unconventional configuration.
It was precisely because Qingyu was certain of this that he spoke without hesitation, directly using a surprise attack of flicks and high-fives to continuously suppress his opponent's offensive rhythm.
With the symbolic bird already chosen and unable to provide effective help, should he hesitate about what to do?
"Charemm, swap abilities with Slaking!"
After the first round of exchanges, Qingyu spoke again without hesitation, but did not rush to give orders to Qingjiawang.
Because of its Sloth trait, Slaking, which just used a move, will not obey now.
It just wants to give up.
Therefore, he needs to take advantage of the time difference in real-time command to expand his side's advantage.
Hmph, you're trying to slack off after only one move?
It's not up to you!
After Qingyu spoke first, Wusong quickly realized what was happening and immediately withdrew the symbolic bird, which was no longer of much use, and replaced it with the bronze bell.
At the same time, he gave Gallade another command:
"Galride, keep using the Holy Sword!"
Even if he's a beat slower, it doesn't matter, because his Gallade is carrying a Life Orb.
Therefore, if the Holy Sword hits the Slaking, it can definitely kill him instantly!
Medicham and Gallade acted almost simultaneously, but because Medicham was closer and Aoba spoke first, it was slightly faster than Gallade.
After two beams of special white energy appeared, Qingyu decisively gave the following command:
"Slave King, hold the line!"
Under the influence of the attribute swap, the originally lazy Slacking King suddenly felt full of energy and even stood up.
Çalem, who had been standing, appeared somewhat listless and soon lay down on the ground, seemingly meditating and resting.
That's right, the effect of the attribute swap has taken effect, and Slaking's combat power has instantly reached its peak.
Furthermore, having escaped the continuous effects of its lazy nature, it was able to obey Qingyu's commands and quickly deploy an energy barrier, narrowly blocking Gallade's light blade.
Wang, who had requested leave, was still unharmed.
At this moment, Daye and Aliu, who were sitting next to Wusong, could clearly sense that something was wrong.
Wusong seems to be sweating a bit.
However, you can't really blame him, after all, his current opponent is a super strongman called "Slacker King".
These two words together are absolutely terrifying no matter how you look at it!
Da Ye asked himself honestly, if he encountered this thing, he probably would also feel weak in the knees, right?
Is it legal for you, strongman, to request leave from Wang He?
"spray!"
Wusong bit his nails in frustration, while slapping his forehead with his other hand, seemingly trying to cool his brain.
Every step he took just now should have been perfectly timed, but Teacher Yu actually anticipated his possible command before he even made a move, and blocked his intentions a step in advance.
I really didn't expect that the boy who asked for leave, whom I just dealt with, could use such a trick to avoid being disobedient due to his lazy nature.
My stats aren't even as high as that Slaking on the other side, and my tactics have been completely outmatched. How am I supposed to beat this opponent?
However, even so, he has no intention of giving up.
"Bronze Bell, Magic Space!"
"Gallide, continue using the Holy Sword on Slaking!"
Wusong's voice gradually became resolute.
In any case, the only character that can carry in Teacher Yu's lineup is Slacker.
If we can find a way to contain it, the next victory shouldn't be too difficult!
As he spoke, Qingyu also gave the order without hesitation:
"Come back, Çalhöyük."
"Slaking, use Shadow Claw on Gallade!"
That's right, that's it!
Wu Song's lips curled up slightly.
This time he was right. Facing the obviously more threatening Gallade, Teacher Yu had absolutely no chance to interrupt Bronze Bell's use of Trick Room!
Therefore, I will once again gain the upper hand!
