Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

"Mist Burst is a skill similar to self-destruction. Its power is greatly increased in the mist field, but it is still much weaker than self-destruction. However, even so, it still has an advantage that self-destruction can never match... Fairy attribute!"

"Weezing already has the Fairy type, and with this boost, its power is no less than that of Self-Destruct. Not to mention that Garchomp is weak to Fairy, so the damage from this explosion is devastating!"

And don't forget, in order to get close to Weezing, Garchomp was hit by Milotic's Ice Beam. With two powerful moves that counter it, even with Aurora Veil protecting it, Garchomp would probably struggle to survive.

Sure enough, when the smoke from the explosion cleared, both Weezing and Garchomp fell to the ground.

"It can only be said that the opposing player was a bit too impatient. They were forced to trade one for one with Weezing and took down Garchomp after Swords Dance. It was an absolute loss."

After seeing the result, Lin Xuan couldn't help but say with some regret that the opponent probably wanted to eliminate the Weezing as soon as possible so that Garchomp could attack in its strongest state, but he obviously did not expect the opponent to use a Misty Blast, which directly blew him up.

Lin Xuan felt that a close-up of the player was needed at this moment, as he believed the opposing player's expression was definitely not pleasant.

After the two Pokémon fell, instead of the previous Marowak and Ninetales, both sides switched to Heracross, the Bug King, and Zoroark.

"Heracross, the Insect King, and Zoroark, the Phantom Overlord."

The popularity of these two Pokémon goes without saying. The former is one of the flagship Bug-type Pokémon, and the latter, like Lucario, is a main character in a theatrical film and is also quite popular in real life.

However, Lin Xuan seems to have forgotten one thing: in the real world without theatrical versions, Zoroark has not yet been given the title of Phantom Overlord.

[Holy shit, Zoroark!]

[Look at those who got excited earlier; they even reversed the subject and object!]

[Phantom Overlord? He seems pretty cool?]

[That's unfair! Why is Heracross just the Bug King? Zoroark's title is so cool!]

However, there's nothing we can do about Lin Xuan. He just copied the title off the cuff. Where are you going to ask him to come up with a new title for Heracross?

The final scene was also somewhat dramatic. After a long standoff and rotation, Heracross and Zoroark ultimately killed each other with a single skill.

Zoroark sneaked up behind Heracross and used a powerful attack. Before falling, Heracross replicated his teammate's move, using a Super Corner Slam to finish off Zoroark at close range.

"Heracross has fallen and activated his Deathrattle, taking Zoroark with him," Lin Xuan said excitedly. Then, remembering that he had indeed treated him somewhat unfairly in his address, he thought for a moment and continued.

"Don't say I'm biased. Didn't you say the way I addressed Heracross earlier was unpleasant? Considering Heracross's performance just now, how about we give him some compensation and award him an 'Even though he fell, he still took something with him' award? What do you think?"

【? ? ? 】

[Should the host try saying it again?]

I bet a dime the streamer can't answer.

Heracross fans are furious

Chapter 34 Fantasy Style

Seeing the barrage of doubts in the comments, Lin Xuan was quite indignant. He felt that the award he gave to this Heracross was pretty good, wasn't it? At least the name was long, wasn't it?

The battle eventually turned into a showdown between Milotic, Ninetales, and Arcanine. In the end, Ninetales defeated Milotic with its Freeze-Dry technique and Arcanine's Crazy Volt.

The match itself was already quite long, and Lin Xuan had paused many times to explain the details, so an hour had passed before we knew it.

"Alright guys, the fun times always go by so quickly, so see you tomorrow!"

Lin Xuan had already anticipated that the barrage of insults would follow, so he decided to slip away first. As long as I didn't see it, it meant I wasn't being insulted.

【? ? ? 】

[Damn, they're already gone?]

[Learn to broadcast at the speed of light]

[You only streamed for an hour before ending the broadcast. How can you do this to us?! Damn it, refund our money!!]

After Lin Xuan finished her broadcast, she didn't do anything but was pulled aside by Zhong Mingyi for a chat.

What are your thoughts on the elves on both sides?

At this point, Zhong Ming no longer concealed his thoughts and directly asked Lin Xuan for her opinion.

Although Zhong Mingyi is stronger than them in terms of absolute strength, his principle is not to underestimate any opponent. Even when training Venusaur in the preliminaries, although Venusaur was the Pokémon in the front row, the two Pokémon placed behind it were both his main Pokémon.

He is so steady that he is absolutely cautious. Even if the opponent is a hidden master, he will never leave any room for maneuver. This character could almost be the male lead in a story about being cautious.

After receiving Zhong Mingyi's message, Lin Xuan replied immediately:

"We must find a way to prevent that Nine-Tailed Fox from opening its aurora barrier. However, that Ice Nine-Tailed Fox is very skilled at controlling the aurora barrier. The best way is to compete with her for the weather. We don't need to win, just prevent the aurora barrier from opening."

The weather conditions that allow for such battles are sandstorms, sunny days, and rainy days. Pokémon that can activate the first two weather conditions should have a certain advantage when facing Ninetales.

The key question is whether they can out-steal it, since Snowfall is Ninetales' ability, and it's quite difficult for most Pokémon to out-steal it. However, this is a problem that Zhong Mingyi needs to consider, while Lin Xuan doesn't need to worry about it.

"Hmm... are there any other ways?"

Zhong Mingyi then sent another message, indicating that it seemed there really wasn't anyone in his team who could compete with Ice Nine-Tailed Fox for the weather.

"Yes, as mentioned before, we'll kill her with one punch before she can activate the Aurora Curtain."

Zhong Mingyi: "..."

What you said sounds like you just said it.

But that's the reality. The strength of the Aurora Screen lies in the fact that as long as it's activated, there will definitely be benefits, unless you don't attack at all, but that's impossible.

"Actually, there's another way~"

"what?"

"If we're going to activate the Aurora Curtain, it'll most likely be the first one to go out. We'll send out one that can break tiles and smash the Aurora Curtain in one slap, or we can use the Fog Clearing skill to achieve a similar effect."

Furthermore, breaking tiles doesn't necessarily shatter the aurora curtain, and the same applies to clearing dense fog; it's just a matter of restraint. It's like trying to catch a dry-skinned Parasect from the roadside and expect it to take Kyogre's water spray—that's a bit of an underestimation of us bighead carp.

After listening to Lin Xuan's words, Zhong Mingyi fell into deep thought. It seemed that what Lin Xuan said was the optimal solution, but how to implement it was up to Zhong Mingyi himself.

"Where's that Garchomp?"

"Garuda is a very well-rounded Pokémon with almost no weaknesses, but that Garuda..." Lin Xuan recalled the battle situation she had seen before.

"The trainer of that Garchomp seems quite confident in his own strength, or perhaps overconfident, which may also be due to the fact that the Aurora Veil has always been there. This might be a breakthrough point."

Lin Xuan then chatted with Zhong Ming for a long time, and then she realized something was wrong.

I've already finished my live stream, why do I still have to come back and act as your strategist?

With the spirit of never being at a disadvantage, Lin Xuan also asked Zhong Mingyi some questions about controlling electric-type Pokémon's current. Zhong Mingyi was quite surprised after hearing them.

After all, this situation usually only occurs in one type of Pokémon, where the electric current in its body has become so strong that it is difficult to control. One of his Pokémon had also experienced this situation before, with flames continuously erupting from its body.

As someone who's been there, Zhong Mingyi gave Lin Xuan a suggestion: find some high-quality Thunder Stones to familiarize yourself with Electric-type energy. It would be best to combine them with some Electric-type Energy Cubes to increase the Pokémon's perception of Electric-type energy.

However, while giving advice, Zhong Mingyi also confirmed one thing: Lin Xuan's strength, even if it was not as good as his, was definitely not bad. After all, the strength of the elves could reach the point of losing control of electric current, so how could they be weak?

After seeing Zhong Mingyi's suggestion, Lin Xuan quietly opened the shopping app, but in his memory, high-quality Thunder Stones were not cheap.

Sure enough, Lin Xuan's mouth started twitching uncontrollably after he saw the prices. Even the most common Thunder Stone was priced at over five figures.

However, although Zhong Mingyi said that he needed a high-quality Thunder Stone, it should be for his Pokémon. If it's a smaller Pokémon, the most ordinary Thunder Stone should be enough.

However, Lin Xuan was also curious about something. This situation with Xiao Dian mostly only occurred with strong Pokémon. Zhong Mingyi might have misunderstood something, but Lin Xuan knew it perfectly well.

Although this guy seems invincible in the school competition, he's still not up to par for professional trainers.

After ending her conversation with Zhong Mingyi, Lin Xuan thought about it and felt that there seemed to be only a few possible explanations.

Or it could be like the protagonist in a fantasy novel, eating some rare and precious treasure from somewhere, but isn't that kind of development a bit too fantastical and doesn't quite match the style of this world?

However, it's not impossible, since some rare tree fruits do indeed have similar effects.

As for another possible explanation, perhaps Xiao Dian has better talent, and he's also incredibly lazy, so he hasn't done any exercise at all. After all, for the past two weeks, Xiao Dian has been spending his time at Lin Xuan's house eating, sleeping, and watching videos whenever he's awake.

But doesn't this seem to be the script for the protagonist in an online novel?

After thinking about it for a moment, Lin Xuan still bought Xiao Dian a Thunder Stone and a matching Energy Cube. After all, Xiao Dian wasn't going to use the Thunder Stone to evolve, and if it didn't work, she could always return it...

Chapter 35 Screw Mole

After considering the minor issues, Lin Xuan went to edit the video. Since there wasn't much work left, she finished quickly, but even though it was quick, it was almost 11 o'clock. But is that late for a college student these days?

After uploading the video, Lin Xuan quickly went to bed, since tomorrow was not a regular weekend and she had to get up early for a competition. Therefore, Lin Xuan had no idea about the fans' reaction after her video was released.

What's the update time for the underworld?

[Is the uploader on the other side of the world, so there's a time difference between them and us?]

So he ended the live stream just to upload more videos? Seriously, I'm so upset.

[Last time it was Venusaur, this time it's Charizard?]

Good grief, are they planning to get the entire starter Pokémon set?

That's right, the subject of Lin Xuan's video this time is the legendary Charizard, the father of Masuda.

Because of its various performances in games and anime, Charizard has always been called the "Charizard" and is no longer just treated as a favored son, but as a favored father!

When its hidden ability was revealed, it was given Solar Power. When Mega Evolution was introduced, everyone else only had one Mega Evolution, but Charizard had two. Even Gigantamax was the first one it got.

Furthermore, Lin Xuan strongly suspects that Venusaur and Blastoise's Gigantamax forms were forcibly brought over by Charizard. After all, they belong to the same generation, and it seems inappropriate that only Charizard has it while the other two don't.

But putting aside these jokes, Charizard is indeed a very strong Pokémon.

"Charizard, the fire Pokémon, has the word 'dragon' in its name but is not a Dragon-type. It is one of the three Dragon-type starter Pokémon along with Gyarados and Tropius. Trainers should be careful not to get burned by the fire on its tail."
