Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

Matchmaking will also take longer, since there are only so many high-level players scattered throughout the Shenzhou League.

Although professional trainers around Su Hao seem like common cabbages, that's because he's part of the trainer community.

In the world of ordinary people, elite trainers are rare and powerful individuals.

It's like a joke.

Su Hao randomly picked a student from the combat department at Jiangcheng University and asked him, "Did you get accepted into the combat trainer major?" The student naturally answered that he had.

At the Master level, if you live in a remote area, you may have to wait a long time or be matched with someone in a big city thousands of miles away.

At that time, a large number of trainers will be concentrated in major cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, which will make matchmaking faster.

Su Hao had clicked on matchmaking before coming to Yundu, and only recently managed to match with a trainer who was a level 5 Advanced Ball.

That's right, the promotion match from Superball to Advancedball requires playing against and defeating an Advancedball player.

Unlike the Poké Ball and Great Ball levels, which have no limit on the number of players, the Ultra Ball level has a fixed limit on the number of players. When someone reaches the Ultra Ball level, someone else will be demoted from the Ultra Ball level.

Therefore, the qualifying rounds often involve encountering goalkeepers of a high caliber, both above and below the goalkeeper.

A seasoned veteran.

At least the guy Su Hao encountered seemed to be a seasoned veteran who had been navigating the ranks of advanced ball level 5 for several years.

He glanced at Su Hao, seemingly not recognizing him as the top high school student who had recently gained fame.

Or perhaps they feel they won't encounter only a few high school students just entering the professional level on such a brutal battlefield as the advanced ball level.

Tang Gang simply sighed, "These days, are college students already making it to the advanced level qualifying tournaments?"

His tone was full of vicissitudes, his half-closed eyes and the unlit cigarette in his mouth, along with his business suit, trousers, and leather shoes, made him look exactly like a corporate slave.

For him, being a trainer is no longer a hobby, but a profession and a way of life.

The referee for the match was changed from referee Lotom to a professional referee with a referee qualification certificate.

The other person seemed to know Tang Gang, but due to the refereeing rules, they couldn't have much contact with him. They just shouted from a distance, "Old Tang, stop posing there. There aren't any girls watching you. Hurry up and get ready for the match. Aren't you going to discuss business this afternoon?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Gang smoothed his slightly disheveled hair, squinted at Su Hao, and looked at him with an inexplicable air of dominance. He said calmly:

"I, Old Tang, have seen what hell is like. Students, you should just stay in the Super Ball level and play house. Doubles matches are not as simple as you think..."

Su Hao's lips twitched slightly. Although he had heard that dirty tricks and tactical teamwork were rampant in both singles and doubles after reaching the advanced ball level, he did not expect to witness it in the promotion tournament.

Looking at the four Poké Balls beneath both players' portraits, a hint of interest appeared in Su Hao's eyes.

To be honest, although he's not a hardcore competitive player, he's still a semi-competitive player who reached Master level in Sword & Shield and Violet Evergarden, so he knows a bit about some classic doubles team strategies.

It just so happens that I came to Yundu this time specifically for this, so it's only natural to let the doubles god give a performance, right?

"This battle is a doubles battle where you choose four out of six. Please place the four Pokémon you have selected on the tray next to you!"

Without hesitation, Su Hao and Tang Gang released four Poké Balls. As the countdown began on the large screen above, the referee's voice rang out: "3, 2, 1, both sides release their Pokémon simultaneously, the battle begins!"

Chapter 418 The True Dragon, Naturally, Must Be Realistic

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Outside the Yundu Formula Battle Arena, under the curious gazes of the surrounding crowd, a man dressed in a business suit, looking as if he had been ravaged, covered his eyes and ran out of the arena crying.

He kept muttering obscure and incomprehensible words such as "intimidation," "surprise attack with a high five," "threw down threats," "rapid return," "can't be hit, can't be hit at all," and "dragon arrow."

It seems he just got brutally beaten in the Formula Battle Arena.

"Mom, why is that uncle crying?"

The child's innocent voice made Tang Gang pause, but the child's mother's voice made him cry even louder.

"That uncle probably lost to someone stronger in a battle. Xiaotian, you should become a powerful trainer in the future, okay?"

"it is good!"

.........

[Dear Trainer Su Hao, your ranking in the Divine Continent Alliance National Ranking Tournament has been upgraded from Super Ball Level 1 to Advanced Ball Level 5.]

[Rank Reward: Choice of any three starter Pokémon within the Shenzhou Alliance Conservation Base. To reserve your spot, please click the button below.]

【reserve】

"Hmm... the right to claim the starter Pokémon?"

Su Hao, with a refreshed and energetic doubles player, left the Yundu Formula Battle Arena, resting his chin on his hand as he fell into deep thought.

Speaking of which, I still have one more chance to capture a Pokémon in a Dragon's Lair, plus the starter Pokémon reward from the Ultra Ball rank, so I suddenly have two Pokémon waiting for me.

There are also three mysterious spirit eggs awaiting him in the trials.

His team is now almost full, and he's a little unsure whether to choose a new starter Pokémon or go to the Dragon's Lair to catch a dragon-type Pokémon.

Or are these two opportunities to be given away later as a favor?

In the not-too-distant future, once he reaches the top 100 in the Master Ball level, he can choose a late-blooming Pokémon, a pseudo-legendary like Dragapult and MetalGreymon.

Wow... If we really went to choose the second team, it would be completely full.

Should he go or not? If he does go, what would be the best gift to bring?

Su Hao decided to ponder this for a while, hoping someone would give him the answer.

Now, let's go to Grandpa Xia's house in the suburbs of Yundu.

Su Hao had already given prior notice, and he could also freeload lunch there.

Thinking of this, Su Hao turned to look at the Blazing Roaring Tiger, whose face revealed undisguised excitement, and chuckled, "Excited, aren't you?"

"Crack!"

The Blazing Roaring Tiger nodded emphatically; it had been waiting for this day for a long time.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger believed that its basic qualities and combat talent were second only to Diancie, but now it had fallen to the third position in the team and was on the verge of collapse.

With his overpowered little brother Draco Barut above him, who would have thought that Draco Messia, which was smaller than his own palm back in the Electric Grand Canyon, has now grown to the point where he can't even beat him?

Below them are the menacing Milotic, the Emerald Eagle, and Lucario.

Milotic's Hydro Pump and Dragon Pulse, once its level catches up, are no pushovers either; even with its high durability, it's easy to get wiped out if it gets hit by too many.

The usually effective high-five attack was completely useless against the opponent's immunity to abnormal status effects.

The Emerald Warrior Eagle is skilled in both melee and ranged combat. After it comprehended the noble and divine feather, even the Blazing Roaring Tiger dared not imagine how it could possibly fight back.

If Lucario were to Mega Evolve, its power would terrify Incineroar, who feared it might be instantly killed by the massive wave missiles of Mega Lucario, which was supported by Su Hao's wave guidance.

all in all.

Hardware upgrades are urgently needed!

"Crack! Crack!"

Su Hao fell silent as the Fiery Roaring Tiger recounted its story.

The Fiery Roaring Tiger said it had a dream.

It relies on its own strength to keep up with its teammates, even without the various legendary blessings of its teammates; it will keep pace and not fall behind through its own efforts.

"Making this choice might make things very difficult in the future, right?"

"

Su Hao wanted to persuade the Blazing Roaring Tiger that even though the power was somewhat mismatched, he had already asked Reshiram in the Light Stone to delay the physical repair process and first condense a cluster of blue flames for the Blazing Roaring Tiger to absorb.

In Su Hao's vision, the pure blue flames were not suitable for Incineroar, but rather for Moltres' Galar form or the flames of the calamity Pokémon Ancient Fish.

Blue Flame is Reshiram's exclusive flame, holding a status similar to that of Sacred Flame and Ho-Oh.

Rahiram told Su Hao that the Azure Flame was the embodiment of the true path he believed in.

When facing an enemy who disregards reality and indulges in desires, the Azure Flame will have a power boost against them.

In short, as long as the enemy being burned has desires, the blue flames will use those desires as fuel to become even more powerful.

As for the level of desire required to trigger the hidden effect of Azure Flame, Reshiram explained:

[I am a true dragon; it's not a problem for me to be a little flexible about my bottom line, is it?]

Okay, that's really true.

I figured the special attack could trigger, so it did.

As expected of Rashiram.

I feel like Articuno and Reshiram must have a lot in common.

"Crack!"

The Blazing Roaring Tiger nodded firmly, indicating that it would realize both the magnetic field rotation cultivation method, which was still just a fantasy, and the sublimation of flames, step by step!

Moved by this, Su Hao shed a few crocodile tears and rubbed the head of the Blazing Roaring Tiger, which had grown from a kitten to a size larger than himself.

"Since you've already made your decision, I can't persuade you anymore. Until I find powerful lightning, let's focus on mastering the Multitasking Technique, the Enhancement of the Perpetual Continuity Manual, and Grandpa Xia's training."
