Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Otherwise, Lin Xuan would have suspected that someone had brought the Pokémon game to this place.

"It's nothing, I'm just playing casually. Besides, with my current rank, I'd probably only be matched with newbies, or maybe even bots?"

"Heh, whatever, I'll just wait for you to get beaten to a pulp."

Bai Yao brought over a stool, looking on with an expression of anticipation for a good show.

Don't be afraid of Mimikyu! Just use Moltres and Eevee!

[I'm not saying anything more now, I'm going to use my alt account to snipe Mimikyu-sensei.]

[Yeah! If you can't win in real-life matches, can't you at least win in the game?]

"Sniping is a bit too much!"

Lin Xuan said with a dark face, but still chose five Pokémon to join her game team. As for why five—

"Why isn't there a Naganadel?" Lin Xuan complained. Not only was there no Naganadel, but none of the legendary Pokémon were there either.

It's practically the Paralympic Games version!

"Of course! Right now, you're the only one with a Naganadel, which doesn't provide enough data! Besides, do you think a normal person needs to know about the Naganadel's skills?"

"That makes sense," Lin Xuan nodded.

"Let's get started! Doubles! Let's begin!"

Even if you only have five Pokémon, it doesn't matter. After all, although you are supposed to have six Pokémon in your team in the game, you can only actually choose four.

So theoretically speaking, even bringing four is more than enough!

The matching speed is fast, but the matched objects seem to be different from what I expected.

"Wait, are all new players this skilled at gaming these days?!"

Lin Xuan pointed at the opponent's Pokémon on the screen and loudly protested.

The universe's number one Incineroar, Rillaboom, Mega Evolution, Talonflame, how come they are all these kinds of Pokémon!

"Keep it up!" Bai Yao patted Lin Xuan on the shoulder, and Xiao Dian and the others also cast hopeful glances at Lin Xuan.

You'll lead us to victory, won't you?

"Buy?"

Will we lose?

"...We will win!"

Chapter 656 Should I not have come?

"Snapped!"

A heavy thud came from Lin Xuan's computer desk, while Bai Yao huddled to the side, trying not to laugh.

"Is there something wrong with these stats?! Didn't Gyarados intimidate my Eevee? How come it slid down a slide and died? All those bulk upgrades didn't help at all! And don't tell me this Rumbler has a Max Attack Headband!"

Lin Xuan broke down.

"Buibui!"

[Exactly! The data is definitely wrong!]

Eevee vehemently refused to admit that he could be so weak in the game. He was just a Thunder King Kong, which could be easily defeated with a single move.

And this game is so unrealistic! Where are my combo moves? Where is my Nine-Colored Ascension Gathering at the Top? Give them all to me if you dare!

"Dandan~"

Little Dot patted Eevee on the shoulder to comfort him. As the first Pokémon Lin Xuan put in the team, Eevee hadn't been selected at all in the battle just now!

[Hahaha, this is the first time I've seen Mimikyu lose so badly in Pokémon battles!]

[Even though it's just a game, it's still really fun]

[Keep going, I love this kind of storyline!]

"No, I need to optimize my team a bit. These Pokémon are too weak right now."

Although the family of rats performed quite well in the game, they seemed a bit weak when facing a Pokémon like Incineroar. Gallade and Gyarados were even scared out of their wits.

"Are you sure you want to optimize it?" Bai Yao was somewhat skeptical of Lin Xuan's words.

"Yes, it's just a little bit, just some adjustments to skill configuration and effort values." Lin Xuan nodded very confidently.

ten minutes later……

"Phew~ What do you think of this team now? I think it's pretty good!"

Lin Xuan pointed to the screen and said, "The six Pokémon on it are Incineroar, Rillaboom, Mega Evolution, Talonflame, Amoonguss, and Kirin."

"To be honest, these Pokémon are indeed very strong in the game, but I have a slight question!" Bai Yao nodded as she looked at this very standard team. It should be said that it was not easy for Lin Xuan to find so many Pokémon that performed strongly in the game.

"Go ahead," Lin Xuan nodded confidently. However, in this game without Dynamax, Titanium, or Legendary Pokémon versions, these should all be considered very powerful Pokémon.

After all, even in Sword and Shield, as long as you find the top ten Pokémon and put them together, you can create a very powerful core team.

Lin Xuan used this method.

"The crux of the problem is, how did you manage to optimize away all the small details?!"

"Dan dan dan dan!"

"Boy!"

That's outrageous!

[Isn't this a skill optimization?!]

"Ahem, after all, to climb the ranks, sometimes you have to make some necessary sacrifices, which is normal, right?"

Lin Xuan turned his head and ignored Xiao Dian and Yi Bu's protests. It should be said that after optimizing them all, Lin Xuan's path to ranking up became much easier, and he won all the way.

But as a game that requires a degree of luck, Lin Xuan can't win all the time.

"Hiss... Why does your Roaring Tiger have will-o'-the-wisps?! Where did you get that position?"

"Holy crap, even the bespectacled toucan is here? Do you think you're some kind of guillotine?"

Before he knew it, Lin Xuan had been engrossed in the game for an hour. After playing real-world battles for so long, it was quite a strange feeling to come back and experience the game again.

"No, I can't take it anymore! I had such a huge advantage, and he took it all down with a single hit to a vital spot? I want another round!"

Bai Yao sensed that Lin Xuan was getting a little carried away, so she quickly pulled him back.

"Forget it, aren't you going there tomorrow...? You're not planning to stay out all night, are you?"

Bai Yao glanced at Lin Xuan speechlessly, and at the same time felt very strange.

At home, Lin Xuan rarely plays games. Even when she does, it's usually with Xiao Dian and the others. I didn't expect Lin Xuan to like playing this kind of game so much.

All I can say is that Lin Xuan is truly a born trainer...

But what Bai Yao might not know is that Lin Xuan simply thought the game was fun.

------

How long did you play last night?

Bai Yao didn't know when Lin Xuan ended her live stream or how late she played last night, but it was probably quite late.

"It's alright, it's all the same to me anyway."

"It's okay, I'll just go watch your live stream replay and I'll know."

"Uh... there's no need for that."

Lin Xuan said with a steamed bun in her mouth, and the two of them had already arrived at the dojo in Chuanfu City.

Unlike other cities, this place has dojos, so most of the League's affairs here are handled by the dojo masters, just like Zhong Mingyi's place, where he is responsible for the vast majority of the League's affairs.

Therefore, regarding today's events, Lin Xuan and Bai Yao immediately sought out Zhang Qiming and Long Xing, who was standing nearby.

"So you two really have a lot of energy! You can start arguing like this so early in the morning."

Long Xing yawned beside him. It was 7:30 in the morning. Although it was already time for class for a student like Long Xing, he was still sleepy no matter what.

What Longxing didn't mention is that he was watching Lin Xuan's live stream yesterday, and Lin Xuan woke up this morning full of energy, while he looked like he was about to die.

"Let's go in."

Lin Xuan pointed in the direction of the dojo, and as soon as they opened the door, someone came to pick them up. It was Li Ru, who was still yawning.

"Your uncle is waiting for you inside. Lin Xuan, you should know the way, right?"

"Hmm, my memory hasn't deteriorated to that extent."

He did live here for a while, so he should have a little confidence, okay?

Lin Xuan then led them into the dojo. Just like last year, the students in the dojo had already started training at this time, and some of them even recognized Lin Xuan and started to greet him.

After all, he had met quite a few people here before.

Lin Xuan and his group quickly arrived at Zhang Qiming's office. Although he seemed to have just gotten up, he had already started working and was clearly pleased to see Lin Xuan and his group.

Especially when he saw that Lin Xuan had two more people with her, did she find another helper for him?
