You are not allowed to be a Pokémon Trainer!

Chapter 258 When did Teacher DaMi get so dirty?! (5k)

Although ten days have passed since the horrific incident that occurred in Odomaré.

However, the popularity of Mega Evolution has not diminished at all; on the contrary, as time goes by, the discussion among trainers continues to rise.

That's how people are; the more something is hidden or half-revealed, the more it can arouse their enthusiasm.

There are countless examples of changes in characteristics and appearance after various Pokémon undergo Mega Evolution.

Naturally, this live stream, which blatantly featured the words "Super Evolution," instantly caught the attention of all viewers who saw the notification.

If it were a small-time streamer trying to ride the wave of popularity, people might just laugh it off.

However, this is the official channel of the Mikkelsen Cup, and its authority and credibility are beyond doubt.

The possibility of clickbait headlines is virtually zero!
When curious viewers flooded into the live stream and saw Xia Chi and Mikoli clearly visible on screen, the chat exploded with comments.

[Holy crap! It really is Xia Chi, that old scoundrel! The missing person has returned! He ran away right after his last live stream; the Riddler's actions have angered both heaven and man!]

[Riddler, get out of Hoenn!!]

【I order you to immediately send out Latias and demonstrate Mega Evolution!】

[Damn it, I was supposed to choose my starter Pokémon this month, but one sentence from Lao Shui made my beloved Charmander go up to two million! My mom wants me to sleep on a park bench!]

Two million? Where are you in the countryside? I'm listed in Shanghai, and a Charmander has already reached three million. Add a little more money and you could get a rare, pseudo-legendary baby!

【May you be blessed, Mr. Shanghai! Does this mean if I bring my green caterpillar into Shanghai, the Oriental Pearl Tower's battle tower will turn into a defense tower and shoot me?】

[The power of Mega Evolution to drive sales is too strong, why not gamble on other Pokémon to Mega Evolve too? I've already locked in Curly-eared, and it'll be Mega Bunny-eared!]

[Mega Bunny? I almost laughed. Look at all the Mega Evolutions that Lao Shui mentioned—they're all pseudo-legendary Pokémon or starter Pokémon, and Lucario is even rarer. You should evolve into Bunnygirl first!]

[But if the opponent is Mikuri, Prison Water will definitely send out Latias, right?]

[Damn, Teacher DaMi is a champion-level trainer, unless he doesn't use his main Pokémon!]

【.】

On the battlefield, as Adam, who was acting as a referee on the sidelines, steadily swung his right hand to signal the start of the match, Xia Chi and Mikoli threw their Poké Balls almost simultaneously!
With a flash of light, Xia Chi's side appeared as an ancient paradoxical creature with a wild figure and huge twin tails on its head, flapping its wings!
Meanwhile, Mikeli sent out the Sprite of Rainy Day, a giant beak that hovers above the water with its wings flapping!
The latter is clearly not Mikuri's main Pokémon.

[Damn, you really don't need your main Pokémon?!]

[Teacher DaMi, you've done so many bad things!]

【? ? ? 】

The barrage of comments was instantly flooded with question marks and cries of despair.

Teacher DaMi, you really don't need to use your main players?
Teacher Dami also has something to say about the complaints from the bullet comments.

It was supposed to be a friendly match, why go all out right from the start?
Is this fair to Xia Chi, a junior?
Sending out this bighead gull, which is being bred to be a mainstay, is a good choice.

Firstly, it can accumulate valuable high-intensity combat experience for future mainstays; secondly...
The most important and popular ace, Mega Latias, should of course be saved for the most exciting and climactic moment!
When it comes to traffic management, Teacher Dami is a professional!
However, although there was a slight "lowering of standards" to boost popularity, this Pelipper is still a genuinely strong Gym Leader-level Pokémon.

If we had to make a comparison, this giant beak is about the same strength as the marsupial from the thousand miles away.

It's still a bit far from being an undisputed Elite Four level like Slaking, but it's not something an ordinary Pokémon can easily mess with.

------

As the bighead gull appeared, its broad wings flapped powerfully, and a thick mist instantly filled the air.

wow——

Almost the instant it appeared and took its place, a sudden downpour began on the water field in the morning.

[Rain] ability activated, rainy weather begins!
Xia Chi smiled slightly, not surprised at all.

The morning sunlight was mild and far from enough to trigger the [Ancient Activity] property of the Winged Man, and the arrival of rain had little effect on him.

He was more concerned about the opponent's standard rainy day tactics opening move.

Sure enough, Mikoli's command pierced the rain clearly: "Publicer, tailwind!"

Since it wasn't a dojo challenge, and Mikuri was aware of Xia Chi's strength, he didn't hold back and made his first move.

Almost at the same instant Mikoli spoke, Xia Chi's command rang out as if he had anticipated his opponent's actions: "Provocation!"

How could he not defend against the classic Pelipper rain-time tailwind strategy?

Just as the beak was about to flap its wings vigorously, stirring up the airflow to create a tailwind that would accelerate the entire team.

A surge of strange, purplish-black energy shot out from in front of the flapping wings, accurately striking the beak in the air!
Provocation hits, Tailwind interrupted!
As if the Pelipper's tailwind being interrupted was expected, Mikoli shouted without hesitation, "Storm!"

"Gah-"

With a loud cry, the great beak of the big-billed gull opened wide, stirring up a violent gust of wind across the sky!
Xia Chi knew that the storm under the rain was unavoidable, so he directly commanded, "Meditate!"

The gale whipped up large raindrops into rapidly spinning blades of rain, carrying the force to tear everything apart, and swept away the direction of the winged man!

Facing the raging tornado, Fa Jie, who was perched on a rock, did not flinch, and a deep pink energy field instantly enveloped her body.

Ignoring the approaching destructive energy, they focused entirely on increasing their Special Attack and Special Defense.

boom--

A terrifying tornado whistled as it tore through the air, striking the flapping wings!

In an instant, pebbles flew everywhere and waves surged!
The winged creature, located at the center, was torn apart by the violent wind blades and water flow, yet it remained completely unharmed!
[Here it comes! The Ghost Fairy's unique ability to disguise itself!]

[Meditating in the midst of a storm felt amazing!]

[Hurry back and switch sides, Pelipper's damage output is running low!]

Michael raised an eyebrow slightly.

Although he had heard about it, he was still slightly surprised when he actually saw that Xia Chi's winged hair had the [painted skin] property.

However, instead of sending Pelipper out of the game as the viewers had predicted, he shouted, "Ice Wind!"

The big-billed gull flapped its wings again, but this time, it exhaled not a gale, but a pale, freezing mist that was icy cold and exuded a chilling aura!
Fueled by the torrential rain, this freezing fog moved extremely fast, and wherever it passed, a thin layer of ice quickly formed on the water's surface, making even the raindrops seem to freeze!
Xia Chi was secretly alarmed. As expected of the elf bred by Mikuri, although its strength was not ridiculously powerful, the level of skill and precision in its moves was terrifying.

Although it wasn't a guaranteed hit, this [Frozen Wind] gave the feeling that it was impossible to dodge.

There's no need to use [Protect] on such a low-powered move. Xia Chi instantly assessed the situation and shouted, "Shadow Ball Swarm!"

The energy within Zhenyi's body suddenly condensed, and purple mist surged from his scarlet eyes!
Wings rapidly condensed in front of his chest, and deep shadow spheres, wrapped in dark energy and seemingly filled with the shrieks of vengeful spirits, shot out like a barrage of bullets!

Heading towards the sweeping, pale, frozen fog!
boom--

The shadow orb and the freezing wind collided violently in mid-air, eroding and tearing at each other!

The spread of the freezing fog was abruptly halted by the continuous bombardment of the Shadow Orbs, with only a portion of the cold air managing to seep through.

------

At the same time, Mikoli suddenly commanded, "Storm!"

"Gah-"

The giant beak of the big-billed gull, poised to pounce, suddenly opened wide.

A raging column of wind, though smaller than before but faster, struck the center of the vortex where the shadow orb and the freezing wind were locked in fierce combat, like a cannonball!

boom--

The already extremely unstable energy balance was instantly shattered!

The frozen fog exploded instantly, and the energy carrying the power of extreme cold, along with the storm energy that followed, surged towards the nearby Zhenyi Hair!
Because meditation increases special defense, damage is secondary.

But the key point is that the speed of the wing-shaped engine suddenly decreased!

Xia Chi was startled.

He understood the true purpose of Mikoli's two [Frozen Wind] and [Storm] spells: they weren't meant to deal damage, but to slow down Zhenyi!
Therefore, Mikoli's next move is almost obvious.

Pelipper will definitely have to use [U-turn] to return the ball and switch to a stronger rain-based physical attacker to finish off the enemy!
"Black gaze!"

Xia Chi shouted decisively.

Black Gaze, a Normal-type status move, prevents the opponent from escaping battle or switching Pokémon after it is used!
Despite the biting cold, Zhenyifa unleashed a jet-black ray of ominous binding power from its scarlet eyes, aimed directly at the beaked gull in the sky!
However, a knowing smile appeared on Mikey's lips. "Puffin, dunk!"

Just as the black gaze was about to touch the Bigmouth, a flash of blue light appeared around the Bigmouth.

A wave of water-attribute energy containing strange rules shot out, like an invisible stream of water, gently yet unstoppably washing over Zhenyifa's body!
Xia Chi's heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, the pre-read was wrong.
Immerse, a water-type status move that turns the opponent into a water-type move!
This move is extremely disgusting for the Winged Warrior.

Because there are no Water-type moves in Fa Jie's move pool. Without the damage bonuses from Ghost and Fairy type moves, Fa Jie's damage output will be greatly reduced!
Mikkuri's calculations were extremely precise; this was the exact moment when the Pelipper's "provocative" state ended!

The Winged Man, who was using [Black Gaze], could not escape the energy fluctuation of [Soaked in Water].

The strange water-attribute energy instantly entered the body of the vibrating wing.

The purplish-black ghostly energy and faint fairy glow surrounding it dissipated rapidly, as if washed by water.

Instead, there is a layer of pure water-like blue light.

[Immersion] Energy hits, Wings transform into Water-based attacks!

Xia Chi shook his head with a wry smile.

As expected of a champion-level trainer!
[When did Teacher DaMi get so dirty? Hahaha!]

What do you think? Ever since Xia appeared, the atmosphere in the competitive arena has become increasingly hostile.

[Mikeli read straight to Xia Chi reading the Big Peacock's exit, but who knew I wouldn't exit at all, and would launch a surprise attack, hehe~]

It's rare to see Prisoner Suffer a loss in pure strategic gameplay; Teacher DaMi truly deserves to be called a champion trainer!

[Actually, if Wingstrike had a Water-type move, it might not be a bad thing, especially considering the rain bonus.]

[It's impossible to win. Even with Water-type moves, Pelipper is resistant to Water, and its power is still lower than a Ghost-type move.]

[Like a cat in a prison cell, hurry up and send out Mega Latias obediently after your defeat!]

------

The attribute shackles brought by "immersion in water" are not unsolvable; the simplest solution is to switch roles.

However, seeing the giant beak that had used its speed advantage to fly around to the back of the flapping wings and completely block the recovery route, Xia Chi couldn't help but click his tongue.

Teacher DaMi, you're using all my signature dirty tricks!

He could fully foresee what would happen if he forcibly threw the Poké Ball at this moment—

With a simple sidestep, Pelipper can precisely block the red light from the returning Poké Ball with its broad body.

Since Sister Fa doesn't have moves like [Rapid Return] or [Volt Replacement], she can only keep attacking for now.

Xia Chi shouted decisively, "Thunder!"

He originally intended to wait until the [Netherworld Mark] stacked up a bit before using this move, which was four times more effective and guaranteed to hit in the rain, to finish the opponent off.

But now that an unexpected event has occurred, we have to resort to another approach.

"Publicer, Storm!"

Instead of using a conservative move like [Defend], Mikuri boldly chose to go on the offensive!

Although both are moves that are guaranteed to hit in the rain, Pelipper is even a STAB move like Hurricane.

But without a doubt, this [storm] is not even in the same league as [thunder] in terms of damage!
That's four times the restraint!

Even though the Pelipper's raw strength is slightly higher than the Winged Beast, it's still not so easy for it to take on the next challenge.

Brilliant golden lightning gathered wildly in the thick rain clouds, and the next second, a thick bolt of lightning that tore through the sky with a deafening roar slammed down on the bighead gull in the air!
click -

The blinding lightning instantly engulfed the beak's form; its pure white wings turned black and curled up under the violent current, emitting a painful cry!
But the Pelipper stubbornly maintained its move despite the excruciating pain.

It struggled to flap its tattered wings, and a still fierce storm forcefully broke through the lightning, violently slamming against the flapping wings on the water's surface.

The damage was considerable!

Xia Chi felt a chill run down her spine.

Is Mikoli going to proactively choose to exchange pieces?

Quickly sacrifice one of your Pokémon, Pelipper, and then let the next Pokémon come out to finish it off.

They did not give Zhenyi a chance to "develop" to the later stages.

This means that Mikuri will inevitably lose one of his Pokémon first.

But without a doubt, this is already a very scientific way to play against Xia Chi's Zhenyifa.

Although he had figured it out, Xia Chi couldn't think of a way to counter this "suicide gull" move for the time being.

The only way to quickly eliminate it is to use [Thunder] repeatedly.

The second bolt of golden lightning struck down in response!

As expected, Pelipper didn't even continue to use [Gale] to whittle down the enemy's health before it fell; instead, it chose to use [Tailwind].

This time, the battered and bruised beak could no longer hold on. It let out a long, unwilling cry, its body billowing black smoke, and plummeted straight down from the sky.

But before it finally lost its ability to fight, it used its last bit of strength to flap its wings with all its might.

A surge of accelerating air instantly enveloped the entire area.

With favorable winds, let's get started!
Rainy weather with a tailwind, the flapping wings still have a water attribute.
Xia Chi could guess with just a fingernail which Pokémon Mikeri would use next.

Red and white lights flashed alternately.

The Pelipper, now unable to fight, was recalled, and the Pokémon that replaced it on a rocky island was none other than Ludicolo, one of the Rain Brothers with the [Easy Swim] ability!
"Hehehe!"

As soon as it appeared, the Lucky Kappa let out its signature cheerful cry.

But the glint in those tiny eyes was the sharp light of a hunter locking onto its prey!
Without any command, the general attribute energy that had been accumulating in the ball for a long time suddenly burst forth!
High five surprise!

The inherent preemptive power of free and easy movement, tailwind, and high-five surprise attack.
With the boost of triple acceleration, the seemingly clumsy, emerald-green figure of Lucky Kappa appeared in front of Zhenyifa as if it had teleported.

Open your palms wide in front of your chest at high speed and clap them down!
Snapped--

As a Ghost-type Pokémon, Fa Jie finally experienced her first high-five surprise attack in her Ghost-type life.

I was completely bewildered and couldn't do anything.

Then, a highly concentrated emerald green orb, radiating surging destructive energy, struck the immobile Zhenyi Hair instantly, like a green cannonball fired from a gun!
boom!
A powerful burst of Grass-type energy erupted!
The power symbolizing life has now transformed into the most violent destructive energy, frantically eroding the water-based body that was forcibly twisted by the flapping wings!
"Ooh!"

Sister Fa let out a painful groan as her body was violently thrown away by the shockwave of the explosion, crashing heavily onto the hard rocks behind her before sliding into the water, rendering her unable to fight.

A clean and swift kill!

Xia Chi was stunned.

The damage is that terrifying?
Could it be Mikoto's main Rakuten Kappa?

Xia Chi probed with his waveguide power to detect the immense life energy of the Happy Kappa, which brought a wry smile to his face.

It really is that champion-level Ludicolo.

It's no surprise that the [High Five Surprise Attack] combined with the double-strength [Energy Ball] instantly killed Zhenyi, whose health was below half.

It's a pity that even the half-health [Painted Skin] wasn't triggered, otherwise Sister Fa could have used [Magic Space] to restrain this crazy, rain-soaked, wind-driven Lucky Kappa.

[Holy crap! That was it! Has Teacher DaMi finally decided to bring out his main force?]

This is forcing Xia Chi to use Mega Latias to fight him!

[Teacher DaMi's tactical design was brilliant! Sending Pelipper to get a favorable wind, then switching in Ludicolo to finish off the Water-type Fatalis! One move after another!]

[It's filthy, so filthy! But it has to be said, it's truly art!]

[As expected, brute force can overcome any skill; with such overwhelming power, Sister Fa couldn't even muster the classic "sharing the pain" move.]

[Super Evolution! Super Evolution! Super Evolution!]

The score in the 3v3 match is now 1-1.

Strictly speaking, this is not a devastating score.

But that champion-level Ludicolo dancing merrily is quite disheartening.

Super Latias is certainly capable of contending with it, but before that, Xia Chi wants to challenge the limits.

Silently retracting her Winged Hair, which had lost its ability to battle, Xia Chi gently stroked the Poké Ball: "Thank you for your hard work, Winged Hair."

He then pulled out another deluxe ball and threw it forcefully.

"I choose you, Magic Mask Nyan!"
