He knows Pokémon better than me.

"Is it already a candle in the wind?"

Xiaozhi looked at the Scolopendra. It had been hit by several moves that had four times its resistance, and its strength was almost running out.

Of course, since it is in the Gigantamax state, its health is twice as much as before, so it can actually last longer.

This time, Uncle Kawu's back began to sweat, and he quickly gave instructions:

"Use Ultra Fire Blast!!"

The huge fireball spewed out by the Flame Centipede turned the arena environment into a sunny day.

On the other hand, Mary's tone of command became more and more fluent:
"Hairy troll, use the reflective wall!"

The long-haired troll with a "mischievous heart" can release transformation moves at the first opportunity and instantly erect a translucent damage-reducing light wall in front of it.

The Max Inferno passed through the reflective wall and its power was greatly reduced, and then the flames exploded on the body of the hairy troll.

Coupled with the continuous damage and burn status of "Super Giant Hundred Fires Burning Wild", the physical strength of the long-haired troll is also constantly decreasing.

Of course, the situation is still much better than that of the Burning Centipede.

Longhaired Troll is a durable Pokémon.

"One more time, super hot!!"

Kawu planned to take advantage of the last round of Gigantamax and use the sunny weather to increase the flames to end the battle in one go.

"Don't give it a chance! Use surprise attack!"

Mary's eyes turned serious and she suddenly said.

This time, the hairy troll took the initiative to attack, transforming into a stream of black light and rushing out. Before the Flame Centipede released its flames, it jumped up and punched the Flame Centipede's chin hard.

Boom! !
The center of gravity of the body was destroyed, and the head of the Burning Centipede was raised. The huge fireball rushed straight to the ceiling of the arena, and was finally blocked by the ghost sword barrier at the edge.

After performing three Gigantamax moves, the Burning Blaze Centipede finally ended its Gigantamax state and shrunk back to a three-meter-long centipede, gasping for breath.
After the Candle in the Wind returns to normal in the Gigantamax state, its health will only drop even lower.

"Right now, use soul attack!"

Mary shouted, and the long-haired troll raised his hand in the air. In an instant, several pink energy balls rose out of thin air around the Flame Centipede.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. Boom! !

As his palms clenched, the pink light balls around him rushed towards the Flame Centipede and finally exploded together!
"Beep, Soul Shock, a fairy-attribute move that causes damage while also reducing the opponent's special attack. It's the exclusive move of the hairy troll, Loto~!"

Xiaozhi put down the pokédex, thinking that this was a very practical move, and its power seemed to be at least above the passing level.

This soul shock also successfully took away the last bit of the Burning Flame Centipede's physical strength.

Boom!
As the pink mist dissipated, the three-meter-long strange centipede fell to the ground, and the long flaming tentacles at the head and tail finally stopped burning.

"The winner has been decided, the Flame Centipede has lost its ability to fight!"

Aerial Rotom also flew down, and his voice echoed throughout the arena:
"So this gym challenge in the Mecha Arena was won by contestant Marie!"

Suddenly, the whole audience burst into enthusiastic cheers, especially the one behind Xiaozhi.

There were even members of the cheering team who took out their suonas, and the sharp and piercing sound was so loud that Xiaozhi had to cover his ears.

Crazy fans are harmful!
Off the court, the two had already taken back their Pokémon and walked together to shake hands after the game.

"You performed very well and dared to fight at the critical moment. Keep working hard next time!"

Ka Wu gave serious comments and encouragement.

He originally thought that the third Dynamax move of the Hairy Troll should be the Dynamax Elf, which would create a "mist field" environment suitable for the Hairy Troll and fight a protracted battle.

Unexpectedly, Mary chose the Super Giant Sleeper to gamble on the sleeping state. She looks like a cute little girl, but she is quite courageous.

"Thanks for the advice!"

Mary bowed and nodded politely, unable to hide the joy on her face.

Afterwards, the audience left the venue one after another, and the cheering team had already gathered at the gate, preparing to hold a grand celebration ceremony for Mary.

As Xiaozhi got up, he received a text message from Mary on his phone, saying that they should meet at the west gate.

This made Xiaozhi feel inexplicably sad about the stubborn guy wearing the Mary cheering shirt, who even puffed out his chest and gave him a provocative look before leaving.

Then he avoided the crowd and came to the small gate on the west side of the Mechanical Arena, but there were not many people there.

At this moment, Mary has changed back into her original pink dress, and put on a cool black short leather jacket and spiked boots.

"Congratulations, Mary. Now you have five badges~!"

Xiaozhi walked up with a smile and congratulated him.

"Thank you."

Mary's lips curled up slightly. There were only three badges left to participate in the Champions Cup.

However, the next three gym owners, Poplar from Wuzi Town and Chibana from Quanguan City, are not easy to deal with.

There is also the town of spikes
"By the way, the Shouting Team is still waiting for you at the main entrance, aren't you going over?"

Seeing that Mary seemed to be planning to go out directly from the small door here, Xiaozhi thought about it and couldn't help but remind her.

When talking about this, Mary frowned:
"I don't want to have anything to do with those guys!"

Seeing Xiaozhi's gossipy look, Mary sighed and explained as she walked:

“Those people are actually my neighbors.”

Both she and the members of the Shouting Team are residents of Spike Town, which is located to the north of Shuizhou Town, across the bay.

I don’t know what happened, but these neighbors suddenly became my fanatical fans. They would come over to cheer me on no matter what kind of battle it was.

"Later, it even developed into obstruction and even attacking other trainers."

Simply put, I became an extremely fanatical fan.

Xiaozhi nodded. He and Mary first met at the police station, when the latter came to rescue the Shouting Team.

"Although I scolded them severely, it didn't have any effect. I can't beat them, right?"

Mary also showed a distressed expression, and some members of the Shouting Team were even her uncles and aunts.

"So now I don't want to respond to them anymore. After a while, these guys will go their separate ways because they keep getting ignored, right?"

Xiaozhi raised his eyebrows and spoke subconsciously:
"A cold butt may be a reward for them."

"Well, I mean, maybe they like your slow-moving personality that doesn't respond."

Seeing Mary's strange look, Xiaozhi quickly changed the subject.

Some people respond enthusiastically, but the other party seems bored. However, if you give the other party a cold response, they may come closer to you.

Mary spread her hands helplessly. This was her personality. She was not naturally capable of smiling and being enthusiastic.

I tried to practice smiling enthusiastically in front of the mirror before, but it was too weird, so I had to give up! (End of this chapter)
