You're not allowed to play Pokémon!

Chapter 113 Now is not the time to talk about martial ethics!
Rounding + rolling.

The move combination was a classic in the previous life, and quite a few people in this world know about it too.

For example, Akane, the Goldenrod Gym Leader of the Johto region, once used this tactic to confuse many newcomers.

Young Qingyu also suffered greatly at the hands of this "explosively beautiful girl" in the game. He couldn't get past the lousy gym no matter what he did with his Cyndaquil at the start, so it left a very deep impression on him.

Round Up is an unremarkable move that raises a Pokémon's Defense by one level.

In addition, there is a simple extra effect: the power of the Rolling move is doubled after using this move.

Although the moves are so basic that they don't even need explanation, they are indeed simple and straightforward, and still have considerable application value in actual combat.

This is perfect for the Earth Dragon brother, who is born with these two moves.

After curling up into a ball, the Earth Dragon Brother began to writhe as the hairy crabs, which were rampaging and gradually approaching him, shrunk into a ball.

Once it starts moving, its movements become incredibly smooth as its body becomes more rounded.

It quickly gained an incredibly fast speed.

Before the hairy cliff crabs that had gathered in twos and threes could react, the earth dragon brother took advantage of the speed difference and crushed them.

The first batch of hairy crabs hit were sent flying like bowling balls.

The collision did not slow down the Earth Dragon Brother at all; instead, it used the force to veer off course and crash into the other Hairy Crabs at an even more terrifying speed.

The initial power of the rolling move is very low, but once it starts, it cannot be stopped.

Furthermore, as the speed increases, the force also becomes increasingly terrifying.

Don't come over here!

After several rounds of rampaging and dominating, the younger Earth Dragon quickly routed the group of Hairy Crabs, sending them fleeing in all directions.

The ground was covered with their fallen claws and legs, and you could even vaguely see a trail of golden, unidentified objects on the ground.

"Well done, little earth dragon!"

Only when there were no more opponents nearby did the little earth dragon slowly stop rolling.

After the circular shape was removed, the little earth dragon, whose eyes were glazed over and had rounded circles, immediately collapsed to the ground, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

Seeing this, Qingyu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

No wonder once you start rolling, you can't stop. So it's because if you stop, you'll temporarily and completely lose your fighting ability?
That's quite reasonable.

So if we're going to use the rolling tactic, maybe we should let the Earth Dragon practice more beforehand, to prevent him from shaking his brains out at a crucial moment...

Although the Earth Dragon brother temporarily lost his fighting ability, he was taken back into the ball by Nemo to rest.

But the result is good.

All the hairy cliff crabs that had gathered around had slipped away, leaving only the precious hairy cliff crab lying on the hilltop, taking a nice afternoon nap.

After clearing out the mobs, it's time to move on to the boss fight.

Qingyu decisively recalled Riolu and, while replacing Eevee, revealed his Z-Force Bracelet.

"Teacher Aoba, are we going to use the Z-Move now?"

Noticing his movements, Nemo asked instinctively.

Generally speaking, it's a tacit rule among trainers to use moves only after the battle has begun...

"It's alright, now is not the time to talk about martial ethics!"

Qingyu smiled faintly.

Nemo is still too young.

Pokémon are a nuisance that occupy large areas and seriously affect the activities of nearby humans, so we must take strong measures!
Another example is the crystallized Pokémon that escaped from Sector Zero.

To ensure safety, the league usually sends four experienced trainers to deal with the problem and physically "help" them break free from the crystallization.

Qingyu took a deep breath, stood still, and assumed a full-power stance:

"Ibrahimovic, all nine colors rise and converge at the top!"

Through these past few days of practice, Qingyu has gradually mastered the secrets of using Z-Moves. In two words—

Go for it!

As long as you fully immerse yourself in this awkward dance with its extremely long Z-Move wind-up, the power of bonds will respond enthusiastically to you!

Ibrahimovic's Z gesture involves crossing his hands, then suddenly extending them outwards, finally bringing them together in front of his chest to form the letter Z.

For Qingyu, it's a way to be both cool and not too awkward.

With a series of actions completed, the Z-Power Bracelet successfully established a connection with the Z-Crystal worn by Eevee around its neck, and a surge of power instantly flowed into Eevee's body.

"Ouch——!"

Ibrahimovic raised his head high and let out a loud howl.

Nine colors rise and converge at the top, Eevee's exclusive Z-Move.

Unlike other Z-Moves, it doesn't have powerful moves, but rather...

As the sound spread outwards, the previously unconscious Treasure Master, Hairy Crab, was immediately awakened and looked down at the several figures below.

At the same time, colorful forces quickly rushed in from all directions.

"What's going on? I've borrowed money several times this week already..."

In a warehouse of a value store in the Alola region, a middle-aged man shook his head helplessly and took out a Poké Ball that was slightly shaking in his pocket.

"Fine, I'll help you one last time!"

Eevee fans from all over the world lent a little of their power, which gradually gathered into the body of the Eevee that used the Z-Move.

Soon, having absorbed enough power, Eevee exuded a terrifying aura, its strength suddenly increasing by more than one level!
"Amazing!"

Nemo clapped excitedly.

No matter how many times I watch it, I still think this Z-Move is really cool!

Sensing the sudden surge of power within the Eevee, the treasure-owning crab was initially taken aback, then swung its pincers and slammed them against the stone wall.

Countless pebbles flew out instantly, falling towards Eevee.

"Ibu, get out of the way!"

While pulling Nemo to dodge attacks, Qingyu also gave instructions on how to dodge.

That's why he used Eevee Z before the battle even started!
Because this move has a very long wind-up and a very noticeable scream, using it during a match...

They'd probably be knocked unconscious before they even got a chance to shake it!
High risk is often accompanied by extremely powerful effects.

After absorbing the power, Eevee's abilities have been significantly enhanced, and it can easily dodge the Rock Tomb used by Crab.

Of course, this move has an even more important significance.

"Ibrahimovic, take the baton!"

Taking advantage of the moment when Crab paused in its movements, Qingyu pulled the trigger on the Poké Ball as soon as he spoke.

Ibrahimovic disappeared, and Riolu followed closely behind.

Since Eevee's combat strength is relatively average, this extremely outrageous power-up move is usually used in conjunction with Baton Pass.

After its abilities are fully enhanced, Riolu is not afraid at all, even when facing its Pokémon, Crab.

It's more likely that the rock wall treasure is the one sweating profusely!

"Go, Butuba!"

After realizing what was happening, Nemo quickly threw out a Poké Ball.

The battle is about to begin!
Finally, five updates today...

My mission is complete!

The storyline for obtaining Eevee Z in the game is very interesting; it's a touching side quest about the legacy of Eevee enthusiasts, which makes Eevee Z feel very significant.

By the way, in the anime, Eevee Z is used by simply calling on a character to summon eight different evolved forms to charge it with energy, which is quite absurd... (laughs)
