Chapter 277 What does it mean for Super Tyranitar to defeat three Gym Leaders in one go? (8.4k views)

[Wow, is this the kind of scene I'd expect to see in a high-stakes battle?]

[Awesome! Super Tyranitar must be the most imposing Mega Evolution form ever seen!]

[Can you believe that he withstood a beam of sunlight without losing any of his brilliance?!]

[There's no way around it, that scene of rebirth from the ashes was just too cool, even the system couldn't deduct points!]

[Super Bangalore is huge! It must be almost four meters tall! I feel like it could cause an earthquake if you took just a couple of steps!]

[It shouldn't be due to super evolution. Xia Chi's Magical Masked Cat is also very large, a plus version.]

[Got it, prison water loves this kind of stuff, big and strong! (Magneto winks.jpg)]

Bigger is better!

Before the gasps from the audience and the barrage of comments had subsided, an even more terrifying scene unfolded.

boom--

With just a deep breath, Super Tyranitar's sandstorm instantly engulfed the entire battlefield!
The rough sand and gravel, like millions of bullets, lashed wildly at the energy barrier separating the audience, producing a heart-stopping crackling sound!
The barrier trembled violently, and visible energy ripples even appeared on its surface!
One can imagine that without the protection of this barrier, the world-destroying dust storm unleashed by the will of the "Sandstorm Monarch" would have instantly turned the entire Glass Arena into a desolate wasteland!

Xia Chi gazed at the figure, looming yet majestic, deep within the swirling sands, and was filled with emotion.

Who would have thought that the little Yugira we brought back from the corner of the breeding base a year ago was on the verge of death and was predicted to live no more than six months?

Today, it has truly torn apart the shackles of fate, risen from the ashes, reigned supreme here, and transformed into a desert tyrant that changes the very fabric of the world?
It is clear that as long as you persevere and do not succumb to fate, and with even a tiny bit of system assistance, you can eventually defy destiny!

With her mind racing, Xia Chi snapped out of her reverie and refocused her gaze on the battlefield.

Now, let the world witness what it means to be a late bloomer and what it means to accumulate knowledge and experience before making a breakthrough!
"Bangilas—"

Xia Chi's voice pierced through the roaring sandstorm: "Sword Dance!"

Super Tyranitar stood as immovable as a mountain, and suddenly burst forth with dazzling, intense golden light!
A violent energy coiled around its ferocious body, and each spike seemed to be accumulating terrifying power with a buzzing sound.

opportunity!

A glint flashed in Feng Lu's eyes, and she shouted loudly, "Qixi Bluebird, Loud Voice!"

I had already taken two [Draft] attacks and one [Sun Beam] attack head-on, a total of three attacks that were four times more effective against me!

Even if Super Tyranitar hasn't fallen yet, his life force is definitely on its last legs!
Now is the perfect time to end it!
Under the transformation of [Fairy Skin], the pinkish-purple destructive sonic waves, like a materialized tsunami, swept violently toward the golden figure in the center of the sandstorm with a soul-corroding shriek!

hum-

The deafening roar enveloped the entire body of Super Tyranitar.

However, that mountain-like figure didn't even flinch.

It was as if that deadly sound wave was nothing more than a gentle breeze brushing against the rock!
The golden light of the sword dance surrounding Super Tyranitar intensified even further!
The excitement on Feng Lu's face froze instantly, and his eyes went blank.

How could a move with double the counter damage be so low?

Before she could recover from the shock...

"Banguiras, rockfall!"

Xia Chi gave the order.

The super Tyranitar, surrounded by golden sword light, stopped dancing and then raised its head to let out a terrifying roar that distorted the air!
"Gahoo—"

The holes on its chest, shaped like blood-red eyes, suddenly burst forth with a dark red light that devoured everything!

Then, its thick lower limbs, like siege pillars, stomped the earth!
------

boom--

The entire battlefield shook violently as if an earthquake had struck.

In an instant, countless enormous, terrifying boulders burning with dark red energy tore through space, forming a meteor shower centered on the Super Altaria and obscuring the entire sky.

Then, with immense force, it poured down violently!

Even with its incredible speed, the Super Altaria still had nowhere to escape!
thump—

The earth-shattering impact sounded like a series of drumbeats!

The Super Tanabata Bluebird's pearly white wings were instantly twisted and deformed, almost breaking, under the baptism of this apocalyptic rock collapse!
With a mournful cry, it could no longer hold on and plummeted from mid-air.

Feng Lu stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Even though she had greatly overestimated Shakiras's strength after the dual evolution, she hadn't expected his output to be so terrifying!
After all, the Super Altaria no longer has the flying attribute.

There is no such thing as being doubly countered by rockfall.

However, before the smoke and dust had even cleared, Xia Chi had already issued his next order.

"Charge! Freeze Fist!"

Super Tyranitar's mountain-like body suddenly erupted and activated.

Although the speed wasn't particularly fast, it took only a few steps to reach the Tanabata bird that was falling from mid-air!

Raise your arm and throw a punch!
The giant fist tore through the billowing dust!

Absolute zero-degree frigid white air condensed wildly on the fist, freezing the air in its wake!

With terrifying power that seemed to freeze all life and shatter all matter, Super Tyranitar unleashed its final blow towards the almost buried white afterimage deep within the smoke and dust!
That punch could really kill someone!

Looking at that terrifyingly powerful frozen fist, alarm bells rang wildly in Feng Lu's heart.

She didn't even dare to gamble on whether [Defend] could withstand this earth-shattering blow!
In a flash, she made the coldest yet most correct decision.

"The Bluebird of the Seventh Night, a song of annihilation!"

Bangilas was brought on manually, and Xia Chi will have at least one minute before he can be substituted off again.

That one minute is enough for the song to be silenced.

thump—

A deafening roar, so deep it seemed to shatter the very heart of the earth!

Interspersed among them was a faint, almost inaudible, mournful cry.

Under this terrifyingly powerful freezing fist, Super Altaria completely lost its ability to fight.

The speed boost from the two [drafting] steps proved effective at the last minute.

Just as the freezing fist was about to strike, the Tanabata Bluebird still unleashed its second Song of Destruction.

Unsurprisingly, Tyranitar, who was so close at hand, was completely enveloped by the ripples of the Song of the Dead!
Holy crap!!! What kind of terrifying damage output is that?!

[Did Mega Tyranitar put all its stat points into physical attack?]

[That shouldn't be the case. Judging from that loud noise that didn't deal any damage, its durability should have increased quite a bit, right?]

[Liang Shui cheated on us again, telling us that Tyranitar's Mega Evolution only deserved a "superior" rating, but it's actually this strong?!]

[Master Ren? God be upon God! 】

Is it possible that *Lithops* has a strong ability to cultivate?

[Yeah, Xia Chi also said that Mega Tyranitar has incredibly high attack and defense, but its stats aren't great, and its ability remains the same. Switching it to Sand Rush would make it take off!]

[Prison Squad: So you're a traitor to the Dragon Clan, huh? Take this, my Great Freezing Fist!]

[But the Extinction Song still managed to be triggered. Xia Chi can't switch Pokémon right now, what should she do?]

[It's okay, just consider it a trade for a Mega Evolution Pokémon. Altaria is still Wind & Dew's ace, so it's a good deal!]

------

Over there, Fenglu silently retrieved the unconscious Tanabata Bluebird back into the ball.

She took a deep breath, suppressing the lingering shock in her heart.

When he looked up again, only calmness remained in his eyes.

If the Song of Destruction hits, there's still a chance!
"Go, Vulture Na!"

The Poké Ball was thrown with a whooshing sound.

A figure covered in dark brown feathers, but with an incredibly smooth neck, tore through the white light and descended fiercely onto the battlefield ravaged by the raging sandstorm!

The sand and gravel rained down on her tough feathers like raindrops on banana leaves, yet they couldn't penetrate her feathers at all.

The wind and dew made her heart even more settled.

Her Vulturena has the [Dustproof] ability, so there's no need to worry about the sandstorm currently affecting the area.

Most importantly, Vulture Na has no other advantages except for high durability and high health!

If you can withstand the attacks of Mega Tyranitar for a short while, and hold out until Tyranitar's Annihilation Song begins to play, you'll succeed.

"Bald Eagle Na, you're flattering me!"

Praise, a Dark-type move that inflicts [Confused] status on the opponent upon hit and greatly increases their Special Attack.

For Tyranitar, a pure physical attacker, this is naturally a very difficult situation.

The vulture's beak suddenly opened, emitting a series of twisted, bizarre, and mentally polluting shrieks!
A dark fluctuation surging with negative spiritual energy instantly enveloped the towering, mountain-like figure at the center of the sandstorm.

However, Xia Chi didn't care about any of that.

"Banguiras, rockfall!"

boom--

The colossal energy rock, capable of blotting out the sky, once again enveloped the entire battlefield, and then violently poured down upon Vulture Na, who had just released [praise] and was in a state of energy stagnation!

Even the Super Tanabata Bluebird couldn't escape it, let alone the current Vulture Na.

The destructive impacts continued once more, and the resilient feathers that Vulture Na was so proud of were instantly torn apart!

Its entire body, like a kite with a broken string, carrying smoke and gravel, crashed into the cracked crater on the ground.

The once abundant vitality was instantly withered to the extreme under the cover of this double-restraining attack.

"Sharp stone attack!"

Xia Chi's attacks came one after another.

Feng Lu frowned and shouted hoarsely, "Hold on!"

Bald Eagle struggled to lift her head, and a tough energy barrier instantly formed in front of her!

Theoretically speaking, this is an absolutely safe area in the absence of attacks with penetrating properties.

however.

Click——

A sickeningly loud sound of rocks tearing apart came from deep within the earth.

Immediately, a terrifying rock pillar, with a diameter comparable to a towering tree and sharp as a dragon's tooth, rose from the shattered earth beneath Vulture Na!

laugh--

The protective barrier that Vulture Na had gathered with all her might only lasted for a moment before it shattered like a fragile soap bubble in the face of this terrifying, all-piercing sharp stone!

Then, with undiminished momentum, it struck Vulture Na's already severely injured body with overwhelming force!

With just one rockfall and the sharp stone attack that she managed to hold off, Vulture Na was almost on the verge of collapse!
Sensing the extremely faint breath of Bald Eagle Na, Feng Lu was deeply shaken.

She had intended for Bald Eagle Na to use [Feather Perch] to stall for a while longer.

Judging from this, even if Yuqi succeeds, it will be difficult for her to withstand the next barrage of sharp stones from Super Shakiras.
Is it about using "Hold on" and betting on the one-third chance of success with consecutive uses?
Or should we gamble on whether the chaotic state on Shakiras will work?
Both rely on luck.

Despite her immense inner turmoil, Feng Lu finally made her decision: "Bald Eagle Na, Feather Perch!"

After all, after using Roost, Vulpix will lose its Flying type and will no longer be weak to Rock types.

Perhaps it can withstand the next attack of sharp stones?

At the same time, Xia Chi's command rang out almost simultaneously, "Spirit attack!"

But speed is ultimately the weakness of the prison squad.

Despite being critically injured and on the verge of death, Vulture Na still managed to use [Feather Perch], her wings struggling to fold, and a pure white light full of life shone brightly.

For Vulturena, her precious physical strength began to recover rapidly.

But that also means it has no chance of dodging!

hum-

As the immense and powerful energy was injected into Super Tyranitar, a heart-pounding hum once again resounded from the depths of the earth!
Several violent and terrifying jagged rock pillars instantly tore apart the Feathered Energy Field beneath Vulture Na, which had just begun to emit a faint white light!

Amidst the deafening roar that echoed throughout the battlefield, the last vestige of life that had gathered on the wings vanished completely, like a punctured balloon.

Bald Eagle Na has completely lost her ability to fight!

------

[Holy crap, two moves and she's dead? And it's Vulture Nami?]

[In the last battle against the Adam Gym Leader, Vulpix withstood nearly five minutes of attacks from that Mega Slowbro!]

[Well, while it's not exactly a boastful achievement, it's still a bit outrageous.]

[Never mind, I'm going to train a Super Tyranitar too, strong, handsome, and fierce!]

Wake up! Do you have a gold mine at home to keep people in jail?!

[Wait a minute. I have a bold idea. Is the Prisoner going to tank the Annihilation Song and just wipe out all three of them? Will the countdown even have enough time?]

Is the optimal solution to counter a song-wiping opponent to wipe them all out? That's interesting.

Not only did the comments section notice this serious issue, but so did the commentators on the battlefield.

The effect of the Song of Destruction usually lasts for about half a minute.

It depends more on the strength difference between the Pokémon used and the opponent.

With the immense power displayed by this Super Tyranitar...
Feng Lu even pessimistically estimated that the demise song released by the Qixi Bluebird before it fell would probably take forty seconds to fully take effect!

At this moment, we're barely halfway through!

His last Pokémon was Charizard, which is four times weak to Rock.
Even a Condor with double the Rock weakness and much higher Physical Defense, Defensive Durability, and Health couldn't withstand it, let alone Charizard.

But this was the last hope for the entire village; Fenglu had no way out!
And the previous praise from Vulture Na was spot on.

I just hope that this damned chaos can work a miracle at the last minute.
With a last glimmer of hope, Fenglu quickly completed the exchange of spirits.

A blazing white light tore through the sand curtain as the Charizard arrived on the battlefield!

Meanwhile, the estimated end time of the Song of Destruction is 15 seconds away!

Feng Lu had already made up her mind.

"Charizard, fly!"

Not daring to delay for even a moment, Fenglu shouted at the Charizard that had just released its ball.

Charizard understood immediately, and its enormous wings suddenly unleashed astonishing power.

Immediately, the magnificent orange-red figure tore through the raging sand and pierced the gloomy sky obscured by the sandstorm, disappearing from everyone's sight in an instant!
The wind and dew are gambling.

Du Xia Chi will command Bangiras to use [Thunder] to attack high-altitude targets!

It's far better for Charizard to take a direct hit from a Thunderbolt than to be hit by a terrifying Rock-type move that instantly kills Vulpix!
If you can survive this attack, after Charizard lands, use Protect to block the deadly Rock Slide or Rock Spike attack.
Fifteen seconds is all it takes to get through this!
However, Xia Chi on the other side of the battlefield was completely unmoved and instead commanded in a deep voice, "Strengthen!"

Super Tyranitar's mountain-like body suddenly erupted with a terrifying aura, and the aura surrounding him became even more condensed and heavy.

In the blink of an eye, another sword dance enhancement was completed!
It raised its head high, gazing at the orange-red figure about to fall in the sky, its blood-red eyes filled with cold indifference.

In the split second as Charizard began its descent, Xia Chi suddenly shouted, "Now! Rock Slide!" "Protect!"

The wind and dew's commands also pierced through the sandstorm and reached the fire-breathing dragon's ears.

The fire-breathing dragon folded its wings, and an emerald green energy barrier instantly formed, firmly protecting its body!
boom--

Countless terrifying boulders burning with dark red energy crashed down violently, creating a deafening series of impacts!
The barrier trembled violently, and spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly across its surface, but it ultimately did not break!

The impact of the rockfall was ultimately too dispersed and was barely blocked by Charizard's tenacious defense!

------

Caught it!
Feng Lu's heart nearly leaped out of her chest—

Countdown, only five seconds left!
In five seconds, the final chapter of the Extinction Song will begin!
Feng Lu forcibly suppressed her excitement and shouted loudly, "Fly!"

Even if it only delays us by three seconds as long as we can fly back into the sky!

Victory is at hand!

Using [Protect] to dodge the rockfall, the fire-breathing dragon flaps its wings desperately, attempting to take flight again.

however.

click-

Once again, a sound of rocks tearing apart echoed from the depths of the earth, filling Feng Lu with immense fear!
Just as the Charizard spread its huge wings, about to escape the attack range...

A massive, sharp rock pillar, imbued with all the remaining power within Tyranitar, rose from the shattered earth beneath Charizard!

laugh--

fast!
Extremely fast!

Just as Charizard's wings were less than half a meter off the ground, the rock fang, burning with destructive golden flames, pierced through Charizard's abdomen with unparalleled penetrating power!

"Whoa-"

A blood-curdling roar of extreme pain resounded through the heavens!

The fighting spirit burning in Charizard's eyes was extinguished instantly, and it crashed onto the cold gravel with a thud, kicking up a cloud of dust!

Feng Lu was struck dumb, frozen in place, her mind blank.

How could it be so fast?

Charizard's speed should have been higher than Mega Tyranitar's just now.
No, it's dragon dance!

A chilling thought struck her mind like lightning!
The command Xia Chi gave when Charizard [Flying] was in the air was not Swords Dance, but Dragon Dance!

After using Dragon Dance, Mega Tyranitar's slight speed boost actually managed to overtake Charizard by a tiny margin!
It was this slight speed advantage that turned the sharp stone attack, which should have been avoided by flying, into a fatal blow!
Looking back in hindsight, Xia Chi was frighteningly calm!
The word "enhancement" misled me into thinking that Tyranitar was still using [Sword Dance].

The [Rock Slide], which was indistinguishable from the previous attack in speed, did not reveal that Charizard's speed had been surpassed.
Until that deadly [Stone Strike] was unleashed!

But by the time Feng Lu realized this, the entire battle had already come to an end.

The countdown to the end of the song finally ended the moment Charizard fell.

Mega Tyranitar collapsed in the gradually subsiding sandstorm, salvaging some of Wind Dew's reputation.

Although it was defeated in three-on-one combat, at least one of them was traded, right?
[They really took down three opponents at once! The prison guards are too strong!]

Before this match, you could call me "Old Man," but now that I've won three straight, what should you call me?

[Sandstorm King! Master!]

[I feel like Wind and Dew are playing too passively. Do they really have to waste time waiting for Extinction Song? They could have chipped away at Tyranitar's Flashiness!]

[A classic case of hindsight bias. Trying to build up your spectacle will only lead to an even faster loss. Then you'll complain about why you didn't drag out the song's extinction time!]

[Lao Shui's hidden dragon dance move was too sneaky; Feng Lu never expected that Charizard, with its speed advantage, would be overtaken.]

[The main problem is the sheer terrifying damage output; a single spike attack instantly kills them. Without that kind of terrifying damage, hiding your abilities is pointless.]

[I already guessed it. Even a defensively strong Vulpix couldn't withstand two hits. You're being countered by a Charizard with a four-fold weakness, and then Tyranitar followed up with a Dragon Dance. How could you possibly withstand that?]

The second semi-final of the Mikkelsen Cup ended in an unexpected and dramatic turn of events.

The unpopular Tanabata Bluebird's super evolution forced it to retreat from the Winged Evolution.

Shakiras was reborn in the sunlight, completing a double leap from evolution to mega-evolution.

Super Qixi Bluebird withstood the pressure and released its final annihilation song.

Then, Super Tyranitar accomplished an incredible feat of defeating three opponents in a desperate situation!

Although it was another classic battle from "Xia Chi making one blunder after another and suffering defeat after defeat" to "Xia Chi giving a victory speech".

But this result was actually expected by the majority of the audience.

After all, ever since setting foot on the land of Hoenn, he has defeated Dujuan, fought against Qianli, and triumphed over Muto.
In every battle, Xia Chi faced the main Pokémon of these gym leaders!

With all that groundwork laid, defeating both Ami and Fenglu, the two club owners, in the Mikeli Cup wasn't really an upset.

But the next final match was completely different.

Xia Chi's opponent is Mikeli, a true champion-level trainer!

Admittedly, the two had clashed a month ago when Xia Chi first arrived in Liuli City.

It even ended with Xia Chi barely winning.

But it was obvious to everyone that Mikeli wasn't playing at full strength in that match.

After all, the first Bigmouth Gull was basically a freebie.

While Super Latias certainly possesses the strength to go toe-to-toe with a Champion-level mainstay, that's just one of them.

Therefore, for the finals held three days later, there were still a huge number of viewers who favored Teacher DaMi.

after all
It's called the "Mikoli Cup," so it's only natural that my teacher Mikoli would win, right?
------

Despite the heated discussions from the outside world, Xia Chi himself paid no attention to them.

He didn't participate in the Mikuri Cup for any personal gain, not to mention that he had been in Lily City for a while and had almost won against all of Mikuri's main Pokémon.

They've already racked up tons of fear points and experience points.

The anticipation for the final three days later couldn't compare to the joy I felt at the moment over Tyranitar's evolution.

At this very moment, the setting sun shines brightly on the Michaelley Manor.

Xia Chi released his companions from their Poké Balls, letting them get to know Tyranitar, who had just come out of the medical room, again.

After the other six Pokémon stood in their positions with curiosity and anticipation, Xia Chi, holding the Tyranitar Poké Ball, deliberately stepped back two paces.

Give this huge guy more space.

Before pressing the button, Xia Chi specifically reminded him, "We're not in a battle, so don't create dust."

Although sandstorms are a special ability, they can be activated or not.

Otherwise, if a Pokémon like Tiger God were to intimidate its trainer every time it appeared, that would be terrible.

A burst of white light, accompanied by a heavy thud, and a desert tyrant, like a moving mountain, appeared on the grassland.

Knowing that he wasn't fighting and was surrounded by his companions, Lao Ban deliberately suppressed his fierce and brutal aura.

Only the body shape cannot be changed.

Its massive body cast a shadow that instantly enveloped the little creatures beside it.

"Tini?"

Victini flapped its little wings with difficulty and flew unsteadily to a position where it was level with Bangiras's head.

The little guy stared wide-eyed at the left and right, his sapphire-like eyes darting around.

As if wondering why, after only a few hours, Shakiras, who used to look like a Kinder Surprise egg, had become such a huge and ferocious monster.

Standing next to Xia Chi, the Magic Masked Cat nodded with a look of satisfaction in its eyes.

She had been worried that if Shakiras evolved into such a ferocious and oppressive beast, its already energetic personality might become even more unruly and difficult to tame.

Unexpectedly, he was unusually calm.

Even as Victini and Vibrating Wing were playing hide-and-seek with their massive bodies, Tyranitar simply stood there calmly, as immovable as a mountain.

Occasionally, it would slightly turn its head, which was covered with a hard shell, and its blood-red vertical pupils, instead of showing impatience, would reveal a hint of gentle indulgence.

The unexpected composure pleased Miaoha, who considered herself the head of the household.

It's quite strange, really. The elf is still the same elf, but after evolving, it gives people a completely different feeling.

Xia Chi looked up at the enormous creature before him, whose full form was difficult to discern even with his efforts to look up, and a smile played on his lips as he softly remarked, "It's much more composed than before it evolved!"

Recalling the pre-evolutionary Shakiras, it was just a rock pupa, lacking even hands and feet.

But in reality, he was the most boisterous one in Xia Chi's team, as if he had inexhaustible energy to vent at any time.

If Xia Chi hadn't restrained him, he could have dug an underground maze for you anywhere.

Now, after its evolution, it stands nearly four meters tall, and its restless vitality has instead subsided and settled, transforming into a reassuring sense of weight.

But if you think about it carefully...

Look at its enormous size after evolution; before evolution, it could only squeeze into such a tiny pupa.

It seems understandable that one has so much energy that has nowhere to go.

"Kuma."

The bear apprentice silently stood next to Tyranitar, stood on tiptoe with all his might, and gestured with his little paws—

My own height barely reaches the joints of this new companion's thick lower limbs, which are covered with hideous bone spurs.

The little guy tilted his head, a hint of envy flickering in his dark eyes, and his little fists clenched quietly.

Perhaps it was thinking that it might be able to become as robust as it after it evolved.

However, its father's two martial arts lions were indeed very strong, standing at least two meters tall.

The bear apprentice inherited their excellent genes, and with Xia Chi's careful nurturing during this period.

While he might not be as exaggerated as Bangilas, he wouldn't be much shorter either.

In contrast, Ponpo and Latias didn't have as many feelings.

Ponpon hugged its beloved green grass mask, looked up at Tyranitar's towering spikes on its head, then looked down at itself, its little mouth pouting slightly.

Hmm. Being too high doesn't seem to be a good thing?
It's so tall, Xia Chi definitely can't hug me.
As for holding Xia Chi?

Ponpon glanced at Xia Chi, then, imagining herself, three or four meters tall, hugging him, quickly and subconsciously shook her head.

It's really strange no matter how you look at it!

------

Xia Chi was unaware of the various thoughts in the minds of his companions.

At this moment, he was looking at the magnificent panel of the system after the old boss had finished evolving.

【Bangilas ★★】

【.】

【Level: 52】

【能力：HP211（+204）物攻224（+176）物防168（+185）特攻125（+73）特防159（+121）速度101（+65）】

The basic ability values ​​need no further explanation.

After evolving, Tyranitar, who is "late bloomer", has become the top tier of Xia Chi's team, second only to Ponpon, even without much equipment.

With the [Late Bloomer] synergy, Tyranitar's potential is far greater than this.

This is just the beginning.

However, the matter of ranking is not in a hurry for now; Xia Chi is pondering something more important.

So, what should we do with the last two pieces of equipment on Tyranitar?
Back then, in order to collect all six evil bonds as soon as possible, Prisoner had a Chosen Badge.

The Hextech technology [Chosen Gear+] that was unlocked when leaving Kitakami Township expanded the equipment slots of the elves carrying the Chosen Badge to four.

This is where Miaoha can make full use of it.

Two divine items and two completed items—a truly top-tier setup.

Aside from upgrading two standard items, Bloodthirster and Titan's Resolve, into Light items, there's no further room for improvement.

Without a doubt, the next step is to strengthen the prison system.

Tyranitar currently has two items: Steadfast Heart and Bloodthirster, both of which are defensive items.

It seems to contradict the powerful offensive capabilities that Super Tyranitar has demonstrated in battle.

But Xia Chi didn't think the equipment was wrong.

Even if the equipment is reset and he gets to choose again, he will still give those two pieces of equipment to the prison guards.

Firstly, the team needs someone who can absorb defensive equipment.

The second point is even more important: the team also needs a shield spirit to stand in front.

All things considered, Tyranitar is the most suitable one, whether considering its attributes, base stats, or size.

This point was well illustrated in the battle against Fenglu.

If it weren't for these two pieces of equipment and the high damage reduction and high tankiness provided by the [Rock Attribute] synergy.

Back then, it was just a prison cell for Shakiras, and there was absolutely no chance of it surviving three consecutive Grass-type moves that were four times super effective against Super Altaria.

Not to mention its rebirth and evolution within the sunlight beam, enabling it to defeat three opponents in a row.

However, no matter how tanky you are, two layers of defensive gear should be enough.

At most, they can be upgraded to Light equipment later.

With the last two equipment slots vacant, Xia Chi prefers equipment that combines offense and defense.

For example, the Titan's Resolve armor that Meowha is wearing.

First, there's adaptation; both physical attack and physical defense are fundamental capabilities required by prison guards.

Secondly, the [sandstorm] property allows for stacking layers in sandstorm weather, which can be completed in just half a minute.

Xia Chi even thought that the artifact [Mithril Dawn] that he didn't choose during the previous Water City Disaster settlement was also quite good.

After all, a 100% increase in physical attack and a 50% increase in physical and special defense perfectly suits the needs of Prisoner.

As for the mechanism that allows a skill to be used only once every two seconds?

It's indeed not suitable for high-speed Pokémon like Ponpo and Meowth, but for Tyranitar, which isn't particularly fast, it's not a major drawback.

At most, it will only make the existing shortcomings even shorter.

In return, however, each move resulted in a one-second forced hard control effect.

It's absolutely a sure thing that you'll make a profit.

I've decided. Next time I choose equipment, I'll go in this direction.
