Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Chapter 111 Is the Streamer a Mysterious Contestant?

After the match, Lin Xuan did not go home immediately, but went to the Pokémon Center to plan her tactics for the afternoon's match.

Because of the match in the afternoon, the midday live broadcast had to be cancelled. Of course, if they lose the afternoon match, Lin Xuan will be able to confidently continue commentating for the next few days.

"The Flame King Pokémon has explosive offensive capabilities and abundant stamina, which you definitely can't match."

Upon arriving at the Pokémon Center's training grounds, Lin Xuan first poured cold water on Xiao Dian's enthusiasm.

"Dandan~"

Couldn't you say something nice to encourage me right now?

The little dot floated up and down, somewhat speechless.

"Look on the bright side. Although this guy has a higher damage output and more stamina than you, you still have an advantage."

While Emboar's durability doesn't quite match its imposing appearance, its speed is a perfect match. Emboar is quite slow, which is probably its only advantage.

After all, if asked what factor has the greatest impact on combat, Lin Xuan would say without hesitation that it is speed.

If a Pokémon is slow, even the highest attack power is useless. In the game, you can rely on high durability or items to force yourself to take the opponent's damage and turn the tables. But in reality, if you can't keep up with the speed and the opponent is a special attacker, it is easy to end up not being able to touch the opponent at all during a battle.

This makes the skills "Follow the Wind" and "Trick Space" incredibly overpowered even in reality.

In particular, Trick Room can turn a disadvantage into an advantage. The opponent's Pokémon may have to train their speed every day, but as soon as this move is used, all the hard work will be wasted, and it may even give the opponent an advantage.

In Lin Xuan's view, even if Xiao Dian's strength is somewhat inferior to Yan Wu Wang's, as long as he can make good use of this small advantage, it is still possible to turn the tide.

Just as Lin Xuan and Xiao Dian were discussing tactics, they suddenly received a phone call from Song Chen.

"Is there a problem?"

"Your opponent this afternoon is from Imperial University, you know that, right?" Song Chen's tone revealed a hint of worry.

"Well, it's not like we have absolutely no chance of winning."

"What a coincidence, I have some information on that contestant here. Do you want it?" Song Chen's tone held a hint of amusement. The relationship between Shanghai University and Beijing University had never been good, so he wasn't about to let this opportunity to annoy the other side pass him by.

Not to mention that the person he was helping was Lin Xuan, so he was more than happy to do so.

"want!"

Lin Xuan said without hesitation, "Only a fool wouldn't want this kind of intelligence."

Soon after, Song Chen sent Lin Xuan a file on QQ, which contained information about the Yanwu King.

As Lin Xuan had predicted, the Flame King's characteristics were the same: self-sacrifice, which could increase the power of skills with the side effect of reflecting damage, such as Flame Charge. This Flame King had used Flame Charge to sweep away all its opponents.

But there was another skill that Lin Xuan was very concerned about: in addition to Flame Charge, this Flame King also had Double-Edged Headbutt, which made Lin Xuan a little uncomfortable.

If Little Point could barely withstand one hit from the previous Flame Charge, this Double-Edged Hammer is truly a life-or-death situation for him!

"Are you confident?"

Lin Xuan looked at Xiao Dian and blinked.

"dawn……"

Xiao Dian leaned over and glanced at the information on the phone, then swallowed hard. This seemed a tiny bit difficult to handle. Her tone even became slightly guilty.

"However, although the double-edged hammer is very powerful, it is also difficult to control. As long as you are fast enough, you can dodge it."

"Buibui!"

The little Eevee, held in Lin Xuan's arms, nodded and then cheered for Xiao Dian.

"Dandan~"

Easier said than done~

If Eevee weren't so weak, he would have really wanted to throw Eevee up to battle, and then watch from Lin Xuan's arms.

The list also includes other skills such as flamethrower, arm hammer, bodybuilding, and hot water, which are all skills that require special attention.

That's right, Emboar, as a Fire/Fighting type Pokémon, can learn Hot Water!

This was quite amazing, and it made Lin Xuan very curious about where Yanwu King's water came from...

"Another thing to pay attention to in the afternoon's match is the electric net. If we can use the electric net to bind Yanwu King, we can establish a significant advantage."

Emboar's two most threatening moves to Tiny are Double Headbutt and Flare Blitz, both of which are contact moves. However, Tiny's most effective counters to Emboar are Wings and Acrobatics, which are also contact moves. But if the two Pokémon were to actually clash head-on, Lin Xuan felt that the answer to that question was a bit too simplistic...

We really need to teach Xiao Dian the Air Slash skill!

The same thing happened when I was using seeded iron balls before. Even though it was the most effective, it was inconvenient to use due to some limitations.

After devising a strategy and training for a while at the Pokémon Center, Lin Xuan took the two little ones out for a meal, since replenishing their energy was the most important thing.

"Phew~ It's getting a bit cold?"

Lin Xuan looked up at the sky; there was no sun. She picked up her phone and checked the weather forecast, which said it wouldn't rain.

The weather forecast in this world is quite accurate. Although there are no supercomputers that can predict a month's worth of weather in a single day, there are floating bubble sprites that can accurately sense changes in the weather.

With the help of certain technologies, the weather forecast for the day can be nearly 100% accurate.

However, this is only in the absence of external intervention. After all, who knows, one day a Kyogre might pop up and give the whole world a good bath.

During the meal, Lin Xuan also took a photo of Xiao Dian, Yi Bu, and herself and posted it on her social media, along with a notification—

I'm canceling today, see you tomorrow.

Of course, Lin Xuan covered her own face with Jie Ge's picture, and also took some pictures of food and uploaded them, including a roasted pigeon. It's just that it's not evening yet, otherwise Lin Xuan would probably worry that this behavior might get her beaten to death.

Did you cancel again?

See this photo? This is what happens when you become a pigeon!

[Hey, is Xiaodian wearing this bracelet too?]

[This looks familiar.]

[Isn't this the mystery player's?]

However, Lin Xuan naturally didn't see what was being posted in the comments section of her own post.

"Don't eat too much, you have another match this afternoon~"

Lin Xuan stuffed a piece of meat into her mouth and then said to Xiao Dian beside her.

"Dandan!"

Xiao Dian gave Lin Xuan a no-questions-asked gesture, then used his fork to scoop up a large clump of noodles and stuff it into his mouth. It's unclear what his body is made of, as he can fit so much food in there.

Chapter 112 You're Famous!

Just as Lin Xuan was eating, her phone suddenly rang. Lin Xuan leaned closer to look and saw that it was a call from Zhong Mingyi.

What a rare guest! What does this guy want with me?!

Lin Xuan wiped her hands and then gently swiped the screen with her little finger.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Congratulations on becoming famous."

Then Zhong Mingyi's voice came from the other end of the phone, and you could vaguely hear a hint of speechlessness in his voice.

"Isn't that obvious? Your fan base has indeed grown quite rapidly recently," Lin Xuan said nonchalantly.

"That's not what I'm talking about."

"Is this my current status as a player? I don't remember doing anything these past few days, do I?"

Lin Xuan recalled that, apart from saying a few cringeworthy lines on a whim that day, she hadn't done anything else.

"Why don't you try combining these two things?" Zhong Mingyi said after a moment of silence.

"Huh?" Lin Xuan was a little confused and didn't immediately understand what Zhong Mingyi meant.

"Take a look at the post you made."

Lin Xuan skillfully used her little finger again, swiping back and forth on the phone screen until she arrived at her own Bilibili feed, where she found a reply displayed at the very top.

[That bracelet on Xiaodian's wrist looks familiar! (confused.JPG)]

[It seems the mysterious contestant's electric flying squirrel also has one of the same design on its hand.]

【? ? ? 】

Is this considered self-destruction?

No wonder Mimikyu-sensei is never there when the mysterious contestant competes.

[Wow, is Mimikyu-sensei really a beauty streamer?]

Besides the comments under this post, there were also a lot of people tagging him in his own fan group.

After reading these comments, Lin Xuan realized what mistake she had made. She was so focused on adding Jie Ge to her contacts that she forgot Xiao Dian was still wearing something quite distinctive.

"How about that? Surprised? Unexpected? I didn't say this out loud!"

Zhong Mingyi's voice revealed a hint of schadenfreude.
