Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Lin Xuan saved face for their school, so they naturally wouldn't go back on their word for such a small matter. Looking at the Pokémon Lin Xuan was with, at most, that Emolga would just go to the charging room to absorb some electricity. How much could it absorb? It's not worth mentioning!

As Lin Xuan watched the match end and the crowd in the surrounding stands quickly surge towards him, he prepared to make his escape and return in a few days to freeload off the charging station.

But just as he was about to leave, Mard, who was next to Crowley, called him back.

"Mr. Lin Xuan, we have something we'd like to discuss with you."

Marde smiled and spoke to Lin Xuan, his attitude appearing somewhat more humble than before.

"what's up?"

Lin Xuan's only thought now was to get back to the hotel as soon as possible and give Eevee a good beating. Thinking of this, she tightened her grip on Eevee's arm a little.

"Boy!"

Ibu felt Lin Xuan's grip on his neck tighten, so he quickly patted it twice.

[Ibrahimovic has been murdered!]

But Lin Xuan quickly pressed his head down again.

"Our young master has something he'd like to discuss with you. Could you please speak to him privately?"

Lin Xuan frowned, which made Mard tense up.

"Mr. Mald, your Chinese is quite good!"

"Ahem, I studied abroad in China before, so I know a little bit about it~"

That's what he said, but the expression on Marde's face didn't quite match the humble tone of his words.

Lin Xuan followed the two to a corner behind the battle club, and then Klaus took out a card and handed it to Lin Xuan.

"In a little over a week, our Liming Group's new product exhibition will be held simultaneously around the world. We also have a branch in Suyun City. Mr. Lin Xuan can go and take a look then. There should be something that interests you."

"Exhibition?"

Lin Xuan took the card with some confusion.

"Yes, as a top talent in the field of evolutionary biology, there is something at the exhibition in a few days that you should be interested in."

Marde continued, smiling.

"What is it?" Lin Xuan asked curiously. Was it related to Pokémon evolution? Could it be that she had discovered some kind of evolution item?

It is important to know that there are still many undiscovered evolutionary forms of Pokémon in this world, and Dawn Group, as a top conglomerate in the field of Pokémon item manufacturing, is also quite involved in this area.

"This is still under wraps; you'll find out when the time comes."

Marde simply smiled at this.

"If you are very curious, you can ask Dr. Sun Siming. He may know some inside information, but we cannot disclose it to you at this time."

Lin Xuan nodded. It was normal for the doctor to know about these things as a true expert in this field, but he was too lazy to ask. He would naturally find out in a few days. Lin Xuan guessed that it was probably one of those evolution items.

The target seems to be those few items. Of course, it's also possible that they aren't evolution items, but just related to them.

Lin Xuan became interested and accepted the card.

“And then there’s something else.” With that, Marde’s smile widened.

"What."

"I wonder if you are interested in working for our Liming Group. The benefits we offer are definitely no worse than those offered by Dr. Sun Siming, and we will also help you resolve any legal issues that may arise."

Clearly, this is one of the other party's main objectives.

Lin Xuan narrowed her eyes, and a bright smile spread across her lips.

"Does your company... have any good stuff, like the Zekrom's Reverse Scale or the Victini's Flame?"

Upon hearing Lin Xuan's words, Marde was stunned, thinking to himself, "You really dare to say that. Don't you want to think about what you're saying?"

Zekrom's Outrageous Scale? And it's not just any ordinary scale. Why don't you just say you'll capture Zekrom and give it to me? And Victini, this guy appears even less often in legends than Zekrom, and there are very few records about him. Some people even doubt whether such a legendary Pokémon really exists.

"The Unova League does have an ancient scale, which is suspected to be from Zekrom, but we can't possibly take it out."

"I'm sorry, but please come back to me when your company is able to provide it."

Lin Xuan shook his head. Of course he knew the other party couldn't produce it, and even if they could, they wouldn't actually give it to him.

“Mr. Lin Xuan, you can contact us anytime if you change your mind.”

"Uh-huh……"

Lin Xuan nodded very casually, practically wearing the word "perfunctory" on her face, while the Eevee in her arms yawned.

"Buyi~"

"Ah, my Eevee is sleepy. She must be tired from the battle. I'll take her back to rest. Goodbye!"

Finding an opportunity, Lin Xuan simply said goodbye and slipped away, giving Crowley no chance to stop her. Crowley seemed to want to say something, but in the blink of an eye, Lin Xuan had slipped out the back door, appearing extremely adept at the task.

"Buy?"

[Using me as an excuse again?]

Chapter 209 Intimate Love

February 7th, Tuesday, the last day of the provincial competition's losers' bracket.

"This is the last match of the loser's bracket. Let's see which player will get the last spot in the main tournament! Glug glug~"

As Lin Xuan spoke, she took a sip of the cola that Kirullian had just bought downstairs; it was still ice-cold.

Even though it's winter now, cola has to be ice-cold, otherwise how can it be truly satisfying?

"Our team's Pokémon is Seraphim, while the opponent's is Manta Ray! Seraphim completely counters Manta Ray! This is because Seraphim's ability is likely Dry Skin, which not only makes it immune to your Water-type attacks but also allows it to heal itself. At the same time, Electric-type moves also resist your Flying-type moves."

Upon seeing the two Pokémon, Lin Xuan silently mourned for the opposing player in her heart.

"As we all know, Remora loves to stick to Manta Ray's wings, so I strongly suggest that the League give Manta Ray an artificial ability called 'Water Gun Love'. When the two Pokémon are on the field together, Remora can immediately launch a Water Gun at the opponent!"

Is your intimate relationship legal?

You're dreaming.

Has Teacher Mimikyu been a bit out of it since the competition started?

[Don't talk nonsense, when has Mimikyu ever been serious?]

Lin Xuan was also very unhappy to see the barrage of questioning comments.

“Look at those Kangaskhan and Dragapult, they bring their whole families to the competition, and they send out five Line-of-Flight troops at a time. Not to mention the Wishiwashi, they bring their entire lineage. Is it appropriate for me to add a cannon to the Manta Ray? I think it’s perfectly appropriate!” Lin Xuan said decisively.

"Otherwise, what do you think these Pokémon can do? In the Rain Brothers, Kingdra is a noble Water/Dragon type, can your Manta Ray compare? And Gulu is a God type, can you compare? You can't, you don't have that ability, you know?"

[God? Isn't Incineroar the only god?]

[Wrong, Roaring Tiger is the God King]

[Roaring Tiger: Who's Claiming Godhood?]

Humen!

"But look at this Electric Frilled Lizard. It has Dry Skin and Solar Power. The former can counter rain teams, and the latter can be used as a mini Charizard. Isn't it better than your Manta Ray?

"Faced with the Electric Fizz, the opposing player didn't dare leave the Manta Rayquaza on the field at all, and immediately switched out the Pokémon, while switching in Softball to defend against the Electric-type moves of the Electric Fizz... But! The Electric Fizz seemed to have anticipated that the opponent would switch Pokémon, and instead of using Thunderbolt or Thunder, it directly used Hyper Voice! It blasted Raichu out!"

Seeing the trainer's prediction, Lin Xuan nodded in agreement.

"Our players have obviously done their research. They know that the opponent has another Pokémon, Raichu, and they bet that you will switch to Raichu. Even if they are wrong, it's not a big loss, since Manta Rayquaza has no moves to deal with Lizard."

Players who enter the loser's bracket have all experienced a defeat, meaning that most of their Pokémon information has already been exposed. If they look carefully, it's easy to find out their opponents' Pokémon information.

Holy crap, this is amazing!

Is this what prediction is?

[It wasn't exactly a prediction, since the benefits of a powerful voice are undoubtedly enormous.]

"If Raichu had successfully tricked the Lightning Rod, then these two Pokémon might have been able to put up a fight. But if it hadn't, Seraphim would still have the advantage. After all, it can still use Normal-type moves, but Raichu's Electric-type moves wouldn't be as effective against Seraphim."

"This Electric Frilled Lizard is quite strong even among two-star creatures. It roared again, sending Raichu flying. Raichu's thunderbolt struck the Electric Frilled Lizard, barely causing a minor, serious injury."

After Raichu fell, the opponent sent out a third Pokémon. After all, using Manta Rayquaza against Lizard when you're at a disadvantage is just asking for trouble.

"The opponent's third Pokémon is—Kobold!"

Lin Xuan stroked his chin. This must be a very special elf, right?

"The Komaru has a very special characteristic: absolute sleep, which means it is in a state of perpetual sleep and will not fall into any other abnormal state. Moreover, this characteristic cannot be eliminated even by chemical changes or gases, because it is closely related to the Komaru's own physical properties. Mimikyu is similar to this."

Why not Mimikyuu?

[Mimi-Oka's shamelessness is something that even the strongest chemical reaction cannot eliminate.]

Speaking of this, Lin Xuan vaguely remembered something else.

"By the way, the saliva left by koalas after eating leaves has a sedative effect, so most sleeping pills on the market contain koala saliva."

【? ? ? 】

[Damn, why did you have to tell me this?]

【Trying to disgust the viewers, huh?】
