Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 541 The wind from the capital city blows, the wind of my hometown blows!

When Lian Wu saw Wanlong's tower light up, he knew that Wanlong had already lost.

From the moment Guangtai appeared on the martial arts staircase, Lianwu became extremely alert, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

"You've finally arrived. As expected, Wanlong lost the match."

Inside Lianwu's tower, the scene resembled a fighting arena. Under the spotlight, it was as if countless eyes were hidden in the surrounding darkness, giving people a powerful, invisible pressure.

"I've heard about it from Cai Dou. I'm grateful for your guidance at the Training Rock. My initial feeling was right. You are indeed an extraordinary martial arts master, both physically and mentally."

Guangtai nodded to Lianwu: "I only did a little bit of help."

“It’s not insignificant.” Lian Wu shook his head: “After a series of failures, that girl’s spirit was in serious turmoil. I’ve been through that myself, so I understand her very well.”

"I should have said that although I practice martial arts from a remote region, I used to be a homeless street fighter. Before I met Master Adek, I was arrogant and looked down on any opponent in the world. In pursuit of power, I traveled to every corner of the world."

"Then, let me repeat what I said back then."

Guangtai: "Back then you said that inner strength is the true strength?"

Lian Wu: "That's right. Having a cultivation partner who can guide her is like a ray of light pulling her out of the abyss. Although she will eventually get out of the pain, it's a good thing to be enlightened sooner."

"In the battles of a Pokémon trainer, sometimes you will lose, but you must still stick to yourself. The path to becoming the strongest trainer is through accumulated training! If you surpass your former self, then you can say that you have conquered yourself."

"Manager, let's fight! Lingju has already lit the Tower of Evil for you. He claims he is no match for you, so there is no need to continue the fight. Meanwhile, Gadria has left you the key to unlock the final path."

"Although you keep saying that you're not good at Pokémon battles, I don't think that's true!"

Hikari: "I originally thought that I would face you again in the Tekken Tournament and challenge the United League, which was not the original plan."

Lian Wu: "When we fight again at that time, we will definitely have new feelings!"

The spotlights in the arena came on!

"The first one is a straw mushroom!"

When Guangtai saw this guy, he knew that Lianwu was really serious.

In the previous fierce conflict with the Sages, even Wu sent out Breloom, and as a battle player and a Pokémon catching player, Breloom should be a very familiar Pokémon.

It can unleash its super-fast Sonic Punch or use its Poison Heal to absorb spores, making it a well-rounded character in both offense and defense. However, since the introduction of Amphioxus, its usage rate has decreased compared to previous generations.
After all, they're all mushrooms, but their roles are different. The shield mushroom, with its regenerative abilities and ability to regenerate, is clearly a better "big mushroom."

However, the Breloom did not disappear from the battle environment because it can also learn Spores!
That's right! Lian Wu was once a street fighter and had practiced many different styles of boxing. He had traveled to countless regions. Although he was an upright person, he didn't seem to be like this in the past.
Therefore, his Pokémon include not only Breloom, which has "Spore" and "Grass Knot", but also Old Man with "An Eye for an Eye" and Toxicroak with "Toxic" and "Venom Juggler"!
Even upright people can employ underhanded tactics. This shows their willingness to use any means necessary to achieve victory!
Just like hero decks are also "mysterious decks," they always contain some inexplicable and bizarre cards!

"Its special ability is [Spores]. When attacked, it can sometimes poison, paralyze, or put to sleep any opponent that comes into contact with it."

"As expected, I can spot a Pokémon's ability at a glance!" Lian Wu smiled. "True strength isn't just about physical size or raw power; releasing the most power with the fewest movements is also a form of strength!"

Of course, monsters like the Giant King of Ross Mountain, which are purely numerical, are out of the question, Lian Wu thought.

Not only did Cai Dou suffer a crushing defeat, but I also suffered a crushing defeat!
That's how we grew!
However, Lightmoy muttered to herself, "Using the [Spore] ability, this kind of weird mushroom, is this how you grow?"

Why not try some poison therapy instead!

"Use grass to fight grass, use magic to defeat magic. No one knows the attributes and compatibility of grass better than me!"

"Miss Skirt! Let us dance!"

Miss Xi Cui Qun'er, as the main force against Lian Wu, made her grand entrance with a gorgeous dance!

The mushroom's fist suddenly stretched out!

Priority +1, Sonic Punch!

boom!
"That's it!" Lian Wu's expression was exactly the same as Cai Dou's when she first saw [Kuaishou Counterattack]!
Lightmoy: "Initiating attacks are useless, this is [Quick Counter]!"

"Strong fighters always like to strike first, but this move is a counter-attack technique specifically designed to counter preemptive moves! And the Breathy will also be forced into a cowering state."

A surge of air rose up with each step Miss Skirt took!

Yan returns!

A nimble yet powerful, guaranteed-hit kick-slash!

call--

Amidst the flashing red light, Lian Wu completed the Pokémon exchange with lightning speed!
Lightmoss: "Grass-type Pokémon are immune to Spore, so they can't use spore-based moves."

"Wow, that's really fast."

"You flatter me!" Lian Wu said seriously, "Practicing martial arts not only improves oneself, but also enhances reaction speed in combat!"

"The 'Bubble Mushroom' is my general. If it faces an enemy that it cannot defeat, it would be tantamount to throwing its life away."

"Then, the second one."

The intense, poisonous punch struck Miss Skirt's body!
"Gugua!"

The one who appeared on the battlefield and took over from the Breath of the Breath was none other than the Poison Skull Frog!

To a normal fighting game expert, this guy has the intention of being a villain or a scoundrel. As a highly evolved Pokémon, its legendary status, image, and representativeness are completely crushed by the pre-evolutionary Croagunk.

Even in the anime, Brock's Delinquent Frog has a fateful showdown with Team Galactic's Toxapex Frog! In the final battle, Brock's "Head-Splitter" instantly defeats the Toxapex Frog, making countless people shout "Frog God!"

This guy is also a hidden general in the Lianwu lineup!

Its venomous stingers on its forelimbs originated from knuckle dusters, a type of knuckle duster with spikes or protrusions, which needed to be used in conjunction with boxing techniques.

And coincidentally, Lian Wu had practiced similar martial arts before!
Lian Wu: "The move you just used was a poison strike!"

With the attribute bonus, an 80-damage poison strike will become a 120-damage strike, which is twice as effective against Miss Skirt!
A heavy blow!
Miss Skirt's expression turned slightly annoyed.

She rarely gets this angry, but in the battle just now, she was about to win the first round when her opponent was suddenly switched, and she was instantly put at a disadvantage.

Losing face in front of your trainer can make you very unhappy!

The Poison Skull Frog opposite was trembling slightly, but its eyes remained unchanged, instead displaying a wise look that seemed to see through everything.

"That's the ability [Adventure]." Lightmoss's expression turned slightly serious. In the game, this ability isn't very useful. It can detect dangerous moves an opponent possesses and issue a warning when the opponent has a highly effective, one-hit KO move, self-destruct, or a massive explosion. Pokémon with this ability will become fearful and issue a warning.

However, in a real battle, it is very likely that the Poison Skull Frog has already foreseen all of Miss Skirt's fighting moves!
Lightmoss: "In other words, it has been completely seen through! Although it is trembling, it is actually the one in the advantageous position."

“That’s right.” Lian Wu nodded: “Pokémon with the Danger Detection ability can sense the opponent’s terrifying moves. All the moves that are extremely effective against Toxtricity are seen through!”

"Once the secrets of martial arts are exposed, their weaknesses will be exploited and they will be defeated. For us, this is the result of our accumulated training over time!"

"It is precisely because I have endured countless beatings that I have been able to see through the patterns of those moves! I can even detect an opponent attacking from behind!"

"Unfavorable elemental attributes, moves predictable. Will you continue using her in the upcoming battle?"

Guangtai pondered for a moment, then smiled helplessly as he looked at Miss Qun'er, who was now burning with anger.

As a stubborn young lady, although she is very obedient to her own orders, she will have her own temper in very rare circumstances.

Since evolving from Lilyroot Doll, how long has it been since I've been this stubborn?
"It's not necessarily a disadvantage. Swallow Return is a guaranteed hit, although Toxicroak might have some ability to block it. But—"

Under Lian Wu's wary gaze, Guang Tai took a deep breath: "Let's dance."

Lian Wu: "Dancing?"

Miss Skirt began to dance a magnificent dance, while Poison Skull Frog was quite confused, but he watched intently, not daring to relax.

Even if that was an enhanced move, it was still useless against someone who had completely seen through the opponent's moves.
The world before the Poison Skull Frog's eyes began to distort, its skin began to sweat, seemingly mixed with venom, and at the same time, it began to lose its focus, and its body swayed slightly.

In that instant, even Wu sensed something was wrong!

Lian Wu: "Poison Skull Frog, wake up!"

"Too late, this is the [Shaking Dance]." Lightmoss looked at the already swaying and unsteady Poison Skull Frog: "It's in a state of confusion now!"

Thump! The Poison Skull Frog attacked itself without any explanation!
“However, even chaos won’t help!” Lian Wu’s eyes were serious: “As long as my Poison Skull Frog still has the ability to anticipate danger, it will be able to see through all your attack routes and moves! All your fighting techniques are in our minds!”

"Poison Skull Frog, use [Venom]!"

The Poison Skull Frog stopped its self-harming behavior, took a deep breath, and began its combo attack!

A pool of terrifying poison suddenly struck first, hitting Miss Skirt precisely!
"Dole?!" Miss Skirt was furious, but after a little thought, she realized that the poisonous frog in front of her was indeed a formidable opponent!

Therefore, I must take it down!

Light Moss: "I see. Through years of training and the different local conditions, the deadly poison has gained a new additional effect."

"Poison-type Pokémon will always hit when using Poison!"

However, the fact that it can overcome its own chaotic state and unleash its deadly poison is enough to demonstrate the power of this poisonous frog!

Lian Wu: "That's right. When a Poison-type Pokémon uses Toxic, this move is guaranteed to hit."

"After the deadly poison comes the venom blast! If the target is poisoned or severely poisoned, the power of this move will double!"

"Venom Impact!" Lian Wu threw a punch, and the Poison Skull Frog also threw a punch!

After that, nothing happened, except that another pool of poison hit Miss Skirt, but it had no effect!
Because the person who has been poisoned must not be poisoned again!
Lian Wu realized something was wrong!
"Let's do it again!"

"Correct! The spotlight has hit you!" Lightmoy directed Miss Skirt: "Find your partner!"

"Dance with a magical rhythm. Make your opponent mimic your movements, thus changing their ability to the same! Now, Toxtricity's ability has changed from Anticipation to Vigor!"

"The Vitality trait increases attack power, but reduces accuracy! Also, without the ability to anticipate danger, you won't know which move I'll use!"

"Miss Skirt, use [Flash]!"

As one of the secret moves, Flash can be learned by most Pokémon. Almost every Pokémon in the Lightmoist team has one. Originally, Torterra was taught this move, but later Aegislash and Kamaitachi also learned it!

It has to be said that it's not very useful in the game, but it works every time in actual combat! It's similar to the "shrinking" ability!

As the saying goes, "the relativity of the canyon means that if your hit rate decreases, my evasion rate increases!"
"Poison Skull Frog!" Lian Wu's expression was shaken. At this moment, the Poison Skull Frog was agitated due to the surge in power, but the chaotic state could not be dispelled, and the danger prediction was no longer effective. It attacked haphazardly, but because the hit rate was reduced, it could not hit at all!

Lian Wu immediately prepared to rotate again, but Miss Qun'er had already noticed!

We won't let this one escape again!

Dance of Victory!

Attack, Defense, Speed ​​+1!

Miss Skirt charged forward with a fierce war dance, and kicked the bewildered Poison Skull Frog!

A million-ton kick!
With a power of 120, this Normal-type move is effective against Toxicroak. While Toxicroak is resistant to Fighting-type moves, it has no strong resistance to Normal-type moves, resulting in a 1x type matchup!
The kick following the Dance of Victory was incredibly powerful; the Poison Skull Frog was sent flying with a thunderous roar, instantly losing its ability to fight!
"This attack... seems to contain anger." Lian Wu looked at Guang Tai thoughtfully, and after seeing Guang Tai's helpless smile, he understood:
"Is it the Pokémon's own will? Miss, you're quick."

"Dole!" Miss Skirt nodded to Lian Wu. Although she was still poisoned, she still bent her leaves in a provocative manner towards Lian Wu.

"Next Mahu—" Lian Wu took a deep breath and focused his mind.

"Master Itachi!"

Among the most prized Pokémon of many Fighters is Itachi, the master. As a Fighting-type Pokémon, it is not only elegant in appearance but also extremely powerful. In Generation V, its speed and attack power were among the best.

Its arms attack with lightning speed, whipping the enemy with the long hair on its arms like a whip. If it calls out with a strange sound, it will unleash a rapid barrage of kicks and chops to overwhelm its opponent!
"Yan Hui!"

With a soft cry, Master Weasel, like a character in a Peking Opera, exerted a little force, and its speed was as swift as the wind!

Miss Xi Cui Qun'er, whose flying ability is four times weaker, would be killed in one move if hit by Yan Fan, provided the strength difference is not significant!
However, Miss Skirt made a strange starting gesture, raising her long legs high!
Then, it danced like a fierce whirlwind!
A raging storm, as violent as a raging torrent, suddenly appeared and directly interrupted Master Itachi's attack!

"[Storm]?! It clearly doesn't have wings, how is this possible!"

Even Wu Da was taken aback!
He really didn't expect that Grass-type Pokémon, especially Humanoid Pokémon, could actually use the move Hurricane! This is completely illogical!

Lightmoss: "That's right, it's the Storm!"

"In ancient times, the emerald-clad Miss Skirt was known as the Queen of the Mountain Path. She lived in a cold region with year-round snow and strong winds. Her habitat deep in the snow-capped mountains gave her exceptional leg strength, which is why she was able to learn the move [Storm]!"

"However, for my Miss Skirt, this storm is a wind from her homeland, the divine capital!"
