Chapter 359: Douzi and Lease Battle

Ignoring Lei Si who was looking grumpy and Michael who was leaving with an embarrassed smile, Zhou You calmly walked into the PTCG gym on the 6th floor of the battle tower.

tpcg is also quite popular in this world. There are often gyms in every city, and it is so popular that you can see many groups of people gathering at the card table to play cards no matter what time you go to the board game store.

In short, it is probably similar to the Yu-Gi-Oh in the Yu-Gi-Oh world?

But here, the world is not saved by playing cards, but by Pokémon battles.

Seeing that everyone else seemed to have a card game at this moment, Zhou You simply took out the card mat and the deck and sat at a table waiting, so that as long as someone was free later, they would come to him to start a game.

And not long after, a familiar face appeared opposite him.

"Douzi? Why are you here too?"

The capable ponytail girl is the same age as Zhou You. She is obviously from Unova, but this is the second time I have seen her in a card store.

Is PTCG also popular in Unova?

"Qiao Qiao, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you in a card store when I came to Hoenn to watch the doubles competition." Douzi also looked surprised, "I have always liked fighting, but the legal age of becoming a trainer in Unova is too high, so I can only look around to see if there are any competitions I like."

Douzi pressed his hat and took out his deck with a smile: "PTCG is the same, because I can't operate it myself, I can only play cards to satisfy my pleasure."

"I understand, the legal age of becoming a trainer in Unova seems to be relatively late compared to the rest of the world."

People in Unova can only become trainers when they are 14 years old.

Zhou You thinks this rule is actually quite safe. In fact, it would be better to postpone it and wait until everyone has received education before taking the test to become a trainer.

It is worth mentioning that Alice is actually under 14 years old, but she was taken to Unova by Shaka after she became a trainer in Kanto... There are indeed some ways to bypass this rule.

"I wonder if you have heard of a rental battle mode?"

While preparing his own deck and shuffling Douzi's deck, Zhou You casually mentioned another way to circumvent this rule: "For example, in the battle tower in Larus City or the battle factory in the battle frontier, there is actually a rental battle where people randomly select the Pokémon cultivated by the staff."

Douzi was so excited when he heard this that he threw Zhou You's deck out.

"Sorry, my hand slipped..."

While packing up the deck, she asked with interest: "Even if you are not a trainer, you can still fight?"

"Because it is a project launched to allow non-trainers and ordinary trainers who are not good at cultivating Pokémon to enjoy fighting. By the way, you like fighting so much?"

As expected of a person who even has the word "fight" in his name, Zhou You actually always felt that Douzi and Douya's portraits carried a group of inexplicable fighting spirits - these two people seemed to be "battle-crazy players" like the three people in Pallet Town.

"Of course, what I like most is the battle! The victory after giving my all is the best. For this reason, I am also training my body to prepare for the future battles with the elves."

When it comes to battles, Douzi seems to be unable to stop talking: "I have already thought of the future beginner Pokémon, that is the fire-attributed Nunu, with a strong body and a fiery fighting spirit. The fire attribute plus the fighting attribute Enwu Wang is simply perfect...ah, I didn't draw a Pokémon at the beginning."

The simplified rules of PTCG draw 7 cards at the beginning and place any number of basic Pokémon on the battlefield. If you don't draw a Pokémon, you can only shuffle and draw cards repeatedly until you draw a Pokémon.

During this period, every time you shuffle the cards, the opponent can get one more card at the beginning.

Although she is very enthusiastic about battles, Douzi's luck seems to be not very good. She shuffled the cards twice before drawing the basic Pokémon-"Flame Chicken·Enwu Wang GX".

She seems to really like Pokémon with fire and fighting attributes.

Zhou You has some similar feelings.

As soon as the game started, Douzi's temperament seemed to change. The only thing in his eyes was "victory". It seemed that everything else was no longer important. He exuded a fierce fighting spirit.

In PTCG, the fire attribute is famous for its fast deployment and high damage. With excellent support cards such as "Welder" and "Giant Furnace", it can quickly accumulate energy for the elves, so as to release powerful moves as soon as possible.

Zhou You is obviously also a fire attribute player.

When two fire attribute decks meet, the competition is the speed of deployment... or luck?

Since Reshiram has not yet been released, there is no such card as "Reshiram Charizard GX" in this world. Zhou You's current deck is "Charizard Longtail Fire Fox GX". Although the 4-energy move of 180 damage is slightly lower than Douzi's output, the subsequent support effect of searching any 3 cards in the deck provides Zhou You with an opportunity to win.

As the game came to the final stage - both players only had one prize card left - the true face of Douzi's deck finally surfaced.

"Is this... Yan (Wu) Wang (Yan) Dijun (card) deck?" Zhou You was stunned for a moment, and realized the biggest problem of Douzi's deck, "Your deck is only meat and has no output."

Douzi pressed the brim of his hat: "Hey, you also know Yan Wang Dijun? In fact, I just included other general cards with my favorite Yan Wu Wang as the core, which may not be that powerful."

Then she explained seriously: "Victory itself is very important, but I think the most important thing is the process of winning... But I don't want to lose either - activate the EX move High Temperature Pressure..."

"Wait, at the moment you activate the move, the previous effect of the Demon Fire Red Fox's predictive future takes effect, and Yan Wu Wang Flame Chicken TT receives 100 points of damage without counting weaknesses!"

This damage just defeated the opponent so that Zhou You can draw 3 prize cards to win.

"Alas, I lost to you again."

After losing the card game, Douzi looked a little discouraged, but he quickly adjusted himself: "Qiao Qiao, are you free now? Accompany me to see the rental battle you mentioned?"

"Don't you want to play cards?" Zhou You was still a little reluctant. Why play a battle on a rare day off?

"Well, you can play cards anytime, but the rental battle will never come again. I only have 10 days to travel to Fengyuan this time."

"Don't you think it's very interesting to not know the Pokémon you and your opponent have, and the victory or defeat depends entirely on luck, knowledge of Pokémon, and intuition of the battle?"
