Chapter 68 Even Cynthia couldn't do it!
Xia Chi was slightly surprised to see the round, rock-shaped Pokémon on the opposite side of the field that looked slightly different from the ordinary Golem.

It's the Alora Golem!
As a special form of the Pokémon Golem, Alola's Golem also has the Rock type, but its Ground type has been replaced by Electric.

It has a device on its back that resembles an electromagnetic railgun launcher.

Apart from that, its characteristics are similar to those of ordinary golems.

It has very strong physical attack and defense, but its special defense and speed are its weaknesses.

These two aspects are precisely the strengths of the Dream Demon.

However, defeating this Alolan Golem is not the key point.

What Xia Chi really wants to do is use it as a stepping stone to allow the Dream Demon to accumulate enough layers of [Fear Imprint].

Then, he accomplished the miracle of a three-in-a-row or even a four-in-a-row!
The onlookers below also whispered among themselves because of the appearance of the two elves.

Wasn't it said that the freshman's main Pokémon was Tirion? Why did they send out Misdreavus?
Should we use it as cannon fodder to wear down Golem's condition before handing it over to Tirion to finish it off?
Amid the discussions, almost no one was optimistic about the appearance of the Dream Demon, except for Lin Lange, whose expression was complicated.

Having experienced it firsthand, she knew very well that the guy's dream monster was no cannon fodder.

------

Meanwhile, on the battlefield.

Perhaps they felt it was unfair to bully the weak, or perhaps they deliberately relinquished the initiative.

After the battle began, Wang Linpeng did not immediately give orders, but waited for the Dream Demon to make its move.

Give way first?

Then I'm welcome.

Xia Chi decisively commanded, "A trick!"

This is a great opportunity to strengthen yourself, it's free, so don't miss it.

Under the effect of the [Speed ​​Attack] synergy, a dark energy ball rapidly formed above the Dream Demon's head.

Then, a burst of brilliant golden light, signifying the successful enhancement, suddenly erupted from its purple-mist-like body.

Although the side effect of the Quick Attack synergy limits the effect of this [Trick] to only 70%, it's still enough.

"Electric light!"

The moment the trick was completed, Wang Linpeng's command echoed across the battlefield.

Blue-white arcs of electricity suddenly erupted from the core fissures of the rumbler, and the dark gray rock shell covered with spikes crackled instantly.

The electric light covering his entire body naturally enveloped the electromagnetic device behind Rumble Rock.

Like an ignition start-up, the round body of the Golem, propelled by the burst of electricity, unleashed a terrifying speed unlike that of a Rock-type Pokémon, and charged towards Misdreavus!

"Fly!"

The deep purple ghostly mist rose rapidly, attempting to evade the lightning-filled impact of the rumble rock.

Wang Linpeng retorted sharply, "Push them after them!"

With its legs tucked in at high speed, the rumbler curled into a ball and sprang up with the recoil, determined to chase after the dream monster floating in mid-air.

The golem's agility exceeded Xia Chi's expectations; the dream demon had nowhere to dodge, so he had no choice but to command, "Will-o'-the-wisp!"

The price of close-quarters combat is that Golem is also unable to dodge these will-o'-the-wisps that drift at point-blank range.

The ghostly flames burning on his body, along with the [Burning] negative status effect, made the attacks of the golem weak and powerless.

"Rock Blockade!"

The rumbler landed smoothly, and the yellowish-gray energy quickly condensed.

In a mere second, several enormous rocks burst forth from its body and were hurled at the Dream Demon, which was still in mid-air.

"Fly upwards and get out of the way!"

In critical moments, you still need a quick and skillful dodge.

Because the initial tactics didn't include the word "counterattack," the Dream Demon, focused on defense, narrowed its eyes and found the only escape route in the rock formation.

By maneuvering left and right, it narrowly avoided the [rock blockade] that would have slowed it down.

A glint flashed in Wang Linpeng's eyes, and he shouted, "Now! Shoot it down!"

With a heavy stomp of its feet, the massive rock that had just been dodged by the Misdreavus, suspended in mid-air, suddenly started moving again.

With remnants of the rock barrier on both sides, the Dream Demon, having lost its hiding place, could only watch helplessly as the rocks above it crashed down, carrying its body back to the ground!

Wang Linpeng's lips curled into a triumphant smile.

Knockout – a Rock-type physical attack move, although its damage is far less than moves like Rock Slide or Rock Slide. However, it has a peculiar effect: it renders the Pokémon unable to fly.

In other words, it doesn't matter if it's a Flying-type Pokémon or a Pokémon with the [Levitate] ability.

Give them all to me, and don't let them fly!

A murmur of discussion arose from the audience.

"Pengzai's multi-pronged strategy is quite clever! It seems like he's going to use rocks to block the way, but it's actually a setup to bring down the Dream Demon. It'll be much easier to fight if the Dream Demon can't fly."

"This handsome guy isn't as amazing as you guys make him out to be. He was still completely outmatched by Pengzai's second Golem."

"Come on, this is their second Pokémon, and it's only a freshman."

"It's alright, it has some strength, but not much."

They have the ability, but not enough?

Lin Qunzhi, who was acting as a referee on the sidelines, fell into deep thought.

Although it was true that Golem was chasing Misdreavus and was doing a great job, she still felt that something was wrong.

She had watched Xia Chi's matches, and his style was definitely not the passive, wait-for-death type.

The current situation seems somewhat like Xia Chi feigning weakness to lure the enemy into a trap?

In particular, the Dream Demon has only used [Trickery] and [Will-o'-the-Wisp] since the start of the battle, resulting in an astonishingly low energy consumption.

Generally speaking, this method of minimizing losses is only chosen when the goal is to achieve consecutive breakthroughs.

But how can this Dreamweaver, whose strength is even weaker than Golem, possibly take on multiple enemies at once?

Lin Qunzhi looked at Xia Chi, who had a calm expression, and became more and more convinced of her intuition.

But what followed was a deep sense of bewilderment.

The Pokémon's strength is undeniable; even Cynthia couldn't have done it.

Xia Chi, what exactly are you going to do?

…………

On the field, the battle continues.

"Rumble Rock, sharp stone attack!"

"Dream Demon, Strange Light!"

It remains a bizarre scenario where one side relentlessly pursues the enemy while the other avoids battle.

With a deafening roar, the towering rock pillars struck the Dream Demon, which had lost its ability to levitate.

The latter, however, ignored this and fired a strange light that did no damage but would put the opponent into a state of [Confusion].

Looking at the Dream Demon, whose life was becoming increasingly broken under the storm-like onslaught of the Rumble Rock, Wang Linpeng's lips curled up slightly.

Is this all the trick you have?
So what if I really hit myself?

What physical defense and durability does my Golem have? What physical defense and durability does your Misdreavus have?

It's just a delay.

"Keep going, sharp stone attack!"

Even when [burned], Golem's powerful attacks can still pose a significant threat to Misdreavus, which has weak physical defense.

If this sharp stone attack hits again.
"Share the pain!"

The dream demon, which had been dodging for a long time, suddenly stopped.

Then, its deep purple body, like ghostly mist, suddenly erupted with intense resentment energy—

That was the damage and pain it had suffered throughout the entire game.

Now, the same amount must be returned to Longlongyan in the same manner.

"Longhou——"

The pent-up resentment and energy accumulated throughout the entire event suddenly poured in, causing even the rock as hard as a rumbler to let out a painful roar.

At the same time, streams of life energy were being drawn back into the Dream Demon's body from the Golem.

The latter's condition improved instantly, a veritable miraculous recovery.
