Chapter 265 Promotion, Meeting Old Friends! (4000 Words)

The rain continued, as if it would never end.

Fujisae looked at the fallen Mongoose Slash, and felt a chill in his heart.

He was the first to lose a Pokémon?

He woodenly retracted Mongoose Slash, and Fujisae looked at the round shell of Nian Mei'er, which was like a natural moat, and for a moment he could not think of how to break the situation.

"Please change your Pokémon, contestant Fujisae!"

The referee's voice sounded again, and Fujisae shuddered and woke up.

He has not lost yet!

At this point, he has nothing to hold back. Since the tactics are not good, he can only rely on hard power to pass the level.

Fujisae took out a luxury ball and threw it quickly into the field. Under the red light, a blue and white snake-shaped Pokémon appeared, and its slender figure caused the audience to exclaim.

Haxorus, the most famous quasi-god Pokémon in the Kanto region, the second stage of Dragonite's evolution!

As for the level... Intermediate gym leader!

The only two Pokémon known to have reached the intermediate gym leader level in the Lily of the Valley Conference!

Is this Fujisae's trump card?

As expected of the favorite to win!

Mingzheng exhaled lightly and became serious again amid the cheers of Fujisae.

If it is rainy weather, it will also have a significant increase on Haxorus.

Mingzheng was thinking in his heart, Fujisae had already issued a new order.

"Haxorus, thunder! Tropical Dragon, Dragon Dance!"

Facts have proved that the skill advantage is less obvious in the later stages. It is not surprising that a Haxorus will use thunder, and this time the Pokémon that is seriously threatened has become the rain-seeking Squirtle.

However, Fujisae can learn from Mingzheng, and Mingzheng can also learn from Fujisae.

In this game, more than one Pokémon has a good resistance to the electric system.

"Nian Meier, hold it up! Squirtle, heal the wave!"

I saw that half of her body was stretched out of her hard round shell, and she easily kept the round shell at a crooked angle, looking at the sky without fear.

You know, the previous closed-door skills increased not only the dodge rate, but also double defense!

Coupled with the dragon-type's own resistance, Nian Meier is the most resistant in the whole field.

What's more, there is a Squirtle below Nian Meier.

A terrifying Squirtle that can use healing waves at critical moments to restore more than 70% of the teammate's physical strength at one time!

The next second, a yellow electric current fell from the sky and hit Nian Meier's position.

But at the same time, a pink light broke through the electric current and flowed into Nian Meier's body like a trickle.

In an instant, the damage caused by thunder and the damage caused by Mongoose Slash were all smoothed out, even slightly exceeded.

Nian Meier recovered to her prime!

And Squirtle was also protected without any injury!

The same thunder in the rain caused completely different effects, and Fujisae's face became ugly again.

"It's time to counterattack, Squirtle, wave missile! Nian Meier, wait for the right time to connect the wave!"

Both Pokémon are in their prime, and Mingzheng doesn't need to stay at all.

Squirtle closed his eyes, and saw the location of Haxorus through the waveguide in his mind.

The next second, a wave missile the same size as Squirtle was thrown out, automatically tracking and flying towards the opposite Haxorus.

At the critical moment, Tropical Dragon stepped forward again, and took the initiative to fly in front of Haxorus, trying to use the energy ball to block the wave missile.

But an ordinary energy ball is obviously not as good as Squirtle's super wave missile. After breaking the energy ball, at least half of its power still hit Tropical Dragon.

At this time, Nian Mei'er's Dragon Wave also came, and Haxorus, who had used Thunder, also recovered at this time and also shot out a blue Dragon Wave to resist the attack.

At this time, Mingzheng squinted his eyes and vaguely saw a subtle movement. The mouth of the Tropical Dragon was chewing something.

He suddenly realized why Fujisae sent a seemingly ordinary Tropical Dragon to appear at such a critical moment.

Is it really just to act as a meat shield for Mongoose Slash and resist Thunder?

If nothing unexpected happens, this Tropical Dragon should have the harvesting characteristics, and can harvest the used fruit many times and continuously restore its physical strength.

Although this feature may not always work in weather other than sunny days, the Tropical Dragon in front of him has either been intensively trained or... is also a modified Pokémon.

Anyway, for this Tropical Dragon, just judge its Harvest feature as 100% triggered!

Just when the two sides seemed to be in a stalemate, the dark clouds in the sky began to slowly dissipate, and the time limit of the Rain-Seeking skill was finally over.

This time, Mingzheng did not let Squirtle or Slimy Beauty use Rain-Seeking, but continued to command them to attack.

Fujisae on the opposite side did not do the same. Haxorus's Thunder could not attack effectively, so it would be better not to be affected by the weather and have a head-on battle.

After all, he always has the advantage in terms of level.

"Haxorus, Dragon Wave Cover! Tropical Dragon, Photosynthesis!"

Although Fujisae was anxious, he had already prepared for a protracted war. Tropical Dragon was still seriously injured, and it would be more valuable to use photosynthesis when the weather was good.

Mingzheng also saw Fujisae's thoughts. He looked at the Tropical Dragon that had already flown high into the sky and was silently photosynthesizing, and he had a plan in mind.

Then kill the Hackron first!

"Slimy, Squirtle, double... Dragon Wave!"

What!

Fujisae stared at Squirtle, wave missile, healing wave, dragon wave...

Although he knew that the organization's target had always been Stotle, he never took it too seriously as it was just an experimental subject.

Now, Stotle had frightened him again and again, and he finally realized why the Kong team was so obsessed with Stotle.

And that Nidorino with a forced characteristic!

Compared with them, how could he, a Tropical Dragon that only knew how to eat and eat fruit, look like a castrated version of a modified Pokémon?

Fujisae didn't know that he had already guessed the truth unintentionally.

On the field, the Tropical Dragon under photosynthesis could not move, hiding in the sky and unable to lend a hand.

And Haxorus was also using Dragon Wave, and his body was also restricted.

When he watched the opponent's two Dragon Waves merge into one, and instantly broke through his Dragon Wave and continued to attack him, Haxorus felt a little desperate.

Why was he, a dignified gym leader of the second stage of the quasi-god, suppressed by the two elites on the opposite side without any ability to fight back?

The blue-purple light exploded, constantly ravaging Haxorus' body, making it wail continuously under the double dragon wave.

With just this one blow, Haxorus was severely injured, and the level advantage seemed to become a joke at this moment.

Finally, the recovered Tropical Dragon flew back and lifted up the swaying Haxorus.

But facing the covetous Nianmei and Kame Stottle, it did not dare to move forward for a while without receiving orders.

It also saw how terrifying the double dragon wave was just now.

In the audience, Manori adjusted her glasses and smiled unconsciously.

As a bystander, she clearly saw that Fujisae's spirit had been scattered, and it was almost impossible for him to cheer up again.

The result of this battle was already determined, and the only winner would be Mingzheng!

And there were many people who shared the same view as Manori.

In another remote position in the audience, Daigo, wearing sunglasses, curled the corners of his mouth and stood up and left.

Mingzheng will definitely win, there is no need to watch this battle.

"Hey, hey, hey, why did you leave so soon? How exciting!"

Beside Daigo, Mikoli stood up with dissatisfaction. The double dragon wave just now gave him a lot of inspiration.

Skills of the same attribute are often more likely to succeed when combined, and this way is very suitable for him.

At the entrance of the passage, Daigo said leisurely: "What's the point of the predetermined result? Let's go to the exit and wait for him."

"Okay..."

Back to the arena, the battle situation has become clearer.

Hackron was seriously injured, so it has been lying on the tropical dragon to move together, but this makes it easier for Nian Meier and others to aim.

If they are far away, it is the Kame Turtle Wave Missile that acts as a navigation, and Nian Meier's Dragon Wave follows closely to make up the attack.

If they are close, the double dragon wave can easily beat the opponent to run away with their heads in their hands. Even if they counterattack, they can only slightly weaken the power of the skill, and then they still have to run away.

After a while, the tropical dragon's body became covered with wounds, and its mouth stopped chewing at some point. It seems that the harvesting characteristic was forced to be interrupted and it could not continue to restore physical strength.

Two minutes later, when the fourth double dragon wave was launched, one of the wings of Tropical Dragon was seriously injured and it could no longer dodge. It shook its body and threw Haxorus out, bearing the injury alone.

After the explosion, Tropical Dragon fell from the sky and was silent.

"Tropical Dragon has lost its ability to fight. Please ask contestant Fujisae to change the Pokémon!"

Another one is defeated!

Only Infernape is left...

Give up?

Fujisae clenched his cheeks and subconsciously looked at the audience.

In that familiar place, Nazane clenched his hands and shook his head gently at him.

Or forget it.

Forget it?

Fujisae took a deep breath, retracted his cowardly look of help, and looked back at the arena.

"Infernape, this is the last one. If we lose, we will admit defeat!"

Then, Fujisae threw the Poké Ball with all his strength and shouted, "But escape is impossible!"

After the red light passed, the reorganized Infernape appeared, roaring to the sky and with flames rising above his head, as if he was ready to fight to the death.

Mingzheng looked at Fujisae, who was ready for a last-ditch battle and regained his fighting spirit, and couldn't help but look up to him.

Facing failure is much more difficult than making excuses to escape.

Then I will try to be quick in the last game so that you won't suffer too much.

"Crumb Squirtle, pray for rain! Cover me!"

Facing Infernape, there is no simpler and cruder tactic than the heavy rain and thunder wave.

When the sky was once again covered by dark clouds and Meer prayed to the sky again, Infernape and Haxorus also rushed towards them fearlessly.

Dragon God swoops!

Close combat!

The target, of course, can only be Meer, who drags a big round shell and has unparalleled defense.

The round shell shook, and Haxorus's Dragon God Dive was directly unloaded by 80% to 90% of its power, and the remaining energy could only leave a small light black mark.

Infernape directly approached the center of the round shell and attacked frantically. The continuous close combat attacks finally made Nian Meier show a trace of pain on her face.

But when the lightning fell, Squirtle's healing wave was hit again, and the next thing was when the opponent would fall.

Two minutes later, Haxorus fell under the second thunder, and the blue-white skin was charred, which was quite miserable.

Five minutes later, Infernape stood in the pit, his ankles were submerged in the accumulated water, and the flames on his body were all extinguished, but his body never fell.

"Infernape has lost its ability to fight. Since all four of Fujisae's Pokémon have fallen, the winner of this match is... Mingzheng from Shion Town!"

The battle ended with thunderous applause from the audience!

They were shocked by Mingzheng's strength, and they also felt sorry for Infernape, who fell even though he lost consciousness.

Fujisae, the favorite to win the championship, fell in the top 32 and didn't even make it to the final four.

After the regret, everyone's attention returned to Mingzheng.

In this match, Mingzheng didn't have any Pokémon fall, and the fourth Pokémon didn't appear, achieving the same feat as Fujisae!

Even until the end of the battle, the three Pokémon that had appeared were still in a relatively good state, and it seemed that there was no problem in fighting another game.

Although it's hard to say, this is a crushing game!

Dark horse!

Super rookie!

Genius trainer!

Successor to the Four Heavenly Kings!

...

Unsurprisingly, countless titles were crowned on Mingzheng's head, as outrageous as they could be.

It can be said that in all the matches in the second round of the rematch today, no one can be more dazzling than Mingzheng.

Even Fujiki and Kikura can't do it!

But as the center of the storm of discussion, Mingzheng has refused all interviews and quietly returned to the backstage.

"Ah, our dark horse player is back, my eyes are almost blinded!"

But Mikoli rushed out first, even wearing sunglasses while talking, pretending to be blind and touching Mingzheng randomly.

Snap!

Mingzheng knocked Mikoli's hand away without hesitation, and slapped him casually, making him scream, and the back of his hand turned red.

"You deserve it..."

Mingzheng was silent. Although you helped to deal with the Kongo team in EMI City at that time, are we so familiar with each other?

"Your Nian Meier has steel attributes, right?"

A familiar voice sounded, and Mingzheng also saw Daigo behind Mikoli...

That pair of fiery eyes!

"Um... do you believe in coincidences?"

"I do," Daigo nodded, and continued in a serious tone, "You have no shortage of coincidences, can there be another coincidence?"

"Ahem..."

Mingzheng choked, waved his hand and did not directly answer the question, although he had already made a plan.

"It's noon, it's not easy for you to come to watch my game, I'll treat you to a big meal!"

As he said that, Mingzheng put his arms around the shoulders of the two and dragged them out.

Daigo opened his mouth and hesitated. There are not many things in the world that can make him excited, but Mingzheng has a lot of them.

He really couldn't help it.

Then, Mingzheng took the two to the Devon Hotel under Daigo's puzzled eyes.

"To be honest, after traveling for so long, your chef is still the one who wins my heart. Let's not be shy, just order whatever you want to eat!"

Mikoli's eyes watching the show should not be too obvious. He sat down and started to name the dishes. He was also very familiar with the menu of the Devon Hotel.

Mingzheng didn't stop him, but was surprised that Mikoli was more skilled than him, as he had never eaten many of the dishes.

Well, he couldn't lose in this aspect, and he should order more in the future!
