Trainer? I'm just an ordinary hot spring owner.

Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and reached for the dark ball around his waist.

Mamane's Farm Cannon Bug is an ace player, so it will definitely not be picked in the first pick. Although the Wing Flap is powerful, its body is extremely fragile. It will be killed if it is hit by a physical attack skill, so it must not be deprived of the initiative.

"Come out! Flutter Hair!"

"Torgedmar!"

Chapter 72: Natural Born Hunter Spreads Wings

A bird with wings like those of a green peacock, flapping its wings and shining brightly in the sun, appeared on the battlefield together with a gray and white, brown and yellow patterned little hedgehog, which looked a little gray and chubby.

"Rotom Pokémon, at your service Lotom!"

"Togodmar, a curled-up Pokémon, has Electric and Steel attributes. Although it doesn't have a strong power generation ability, after the long spines on its back are erected, it can act as a lightning rod to attract electricity and make its body electrified, Loto!"

The red and white Rotom Pokédex came to Jiang Cheng excitedly and shouted out Togedemare's information.

"Okay, thank you very much, Rotom," nodded. Even though it wasn't any substantial help, he still wanted to thank him.

"You're welcome, Rotom!" Rotom spun happily, but Jiang Cheng didn't have time to care about his dancing moves. Strictly speaking, this was his first high-intensity battle, so he had to be fully alert.

This seventh-generation electric rat is an authentic electric physical attacker. Its characteristics are the same as described in the illustration: 96 speed and 98 attack attributes. It happens to be the type of enemy that is difficult to deal with with the Wingbeat attack.

The flying eagle slowly spread out his wings, and the row of upright thorns on his head swayed slightly. His scarlet eyes stared at the enemy in front of him, ready to attack.

"Well, let the game begin!" Dr. Kukui gave the order.

Jiang Cheng spoke immediately the moment Dr. Kukui gave the order: "Flutter Wings, Moon Power!"

"Ah, Tolgodemar, shock!"

After hearing this, the gray-haired Togodemar immediately closed his eyes and puffed up his lips. A long and thin electric current emitted from his cheeks and went straight to the flapping wings.

"Zhen Yifa, high altitude..." Jiang Cheng wanted to remind Zhen Yifa immediately after seeing it, but he found that his reminder seemed a little too slow.

The moment the flapping wings saw the other party puffing up his cheeks, they had already started to rise. The two pairs of wings wrapped around both sides of the body and suddenly spread out at the highest point!

Togodmar's power generation capacity is not strong, and the amount of current it can generate is very low. The current belt tried to catch up with the flapping wings, but it lacked continuity and just stopped in front of the flapping wings. Or, the flapping wings saw that the opponent's current was not continuous, so it chose to stop at that height.

Although the official is reluctant to admit it, in the world of Pokémon, there is an ecological hunting relationship.

Some Pokémon are hunters, some Pokémon are prey, and Flutterhair is definitely a hunter.

After entering the battle, she officially entered her hunting state.

The moment she saw Togodmar's electric current, she determined its spread based on the intensity of the current. This is what a natural hunter is all about.

The wings of the flying dragon were flapping in the air, and the power of the moon began to accumulate. A black moon condensed between the wings of the flying dragon, and then fell heavily towards Togodmar!

"Moon power? Is that the moon power?"

"It does look like the power of the moon, but why does the dream demon have the power of the moon?"

"Yeah, isn't Moon Power a move that only Fairy-types can use?"

The audience naturally saw the powerful looking Black Moon and started talking about it. Although the Alola region didn't have much experience in Pokémon battles, most of the people here had some training experience and knew a thing or two about the basic attributes. Probably?

"That one looks similar to the Incubus, but it should be a different Pokémon. Could it be a special regional form?"

"Young man, you are from Donghuang. Could that be the appearance of the Donghuang Dream Demon?"

The audience was speculating, but at this moment, Togodemar's situation on the field was already very dangerous. Once hit by this moon power, Togodemar's special defense of 73 points would not be able to withstand a single hit.

"Togodemar! Use spikes to defend!!" At the critical moment, Mamane spoke in time, and a circle of green illusory shell immediately appeared around Togodemar, with rows of spikes visible on it.

The black moon hit Togodmar hard, knocking him out. He rolled twice on the ground before stopping, but the light green shell on his body had been broken.

"Togodemar, it's okay..." Mamane spoke with great concern, but saw a black shadow quietly emerging from the shadow behind Togodemar!

"Surprise attack!"

The wings pierced into Togodmar's body fiercely and then tore it apart rapidly. The attack launched by the flapping wings was extremely ferocious, and did not give the electric hedgehog any chance to breathe. Togodmar barely took on a burst of moon power with the help of the spike defense and the two cups of fairy resistance, but he could not take on the next surprise attack from the hidden spirit no matter what.

In addition, because the power of the moon broke the spike defense, Togodmar didn't even have the chance to inflict counterattack on the Winged Hair.

"Togodemar!" Mamane shouted worriedly, but was frightened by a pair of scarlet eyes that suddenly appeared, and did not dare to move forward for a moment.

Fluttering Wings looked at the little fat boy Mamane, shook his feathers, slowly moved back and kept some distance.

"Togodemar, you can't fight!" Dr. Kukui glanced at Togodemar, who was spinning his eyes on the ground, and immediately announced the result of the match. The game continued!

The battle situation, which was almost like a crushing victory, caused an uproar at the scene.

"It was so fast...I almost didn't see the Pokémon's movements..."

"What a ferocious Pokémon, with such a strong desire to attack. With such an attack frequency, even Captain Mamane will have a hard time finding an opportunity."

"I thought the young man was the challenger.... He turned out to be so strong?"

"First, he uses his own speed to create distance so that the opponent's electricity cannot touch him. Then he uses long-range skills to break through the spike defense. Finally, he finishes with a surprise attack. What a detailed combo... This kid is really talented." Kukui was also secretly shocked when he saw it from the side.

The choice of skills and the grasp of timing are two completely different styles from the previous games. Relying on the extremely high speed of the Pokémon to actively attack, and the meticulous and violent combos will bring great pressure to the opponent's trainer. They don't even have time to think about whether their choice is right or wrong, and can only choose to believe in the bond between themselves and Pokémon.

Wait, force... I see. Professor Kukui seemed to understand something.

In the previous game, Gastly used defensive tactics and negative states to force the opponent to make a choice, but in this game, he used his strong offensiveness to force the opponent to make a quick choice. This kid... is different from his usual gentle style. Is he such an aggressive type...

Dr. Kukui looked at Jiang Cheng who had already started preparing for the second game, and thought secretly in his heart.

Chapter 73: The Disparity in the Battle Situation

After taking down the first one, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed. Even though his strength was not enough, among the opponent's Pokémon, the one that was most capable of restraining the Winged Hair was Togodmar. Now that he had successfully taken it down, the balance of victory had already tilted.

Even though he had overestimated the power of the Wingbeat before, it seemed that he had underestimated it this time. He deliberately released the Fairy Moon Power which had twice the resistance of the Steel System to try to see the lowest damage value. As a result, even with the spike defense, Togodmar was still beaten to a pulp.

With this strength as a foundation, Jiang Cheng had a better idea of ​​the upcoming battle.

By winning this round, Jiang Cheng also saw the combat IQ of Zhen Yifa. Obviously, Zhen Yifa has a very high combat IQ and great talent. He also has a very strong ability to control his own and his opponent's abilities. In other words, he is a one in a million martial arts genius.

Of course, it was also because Togodmar didn’t perform well.

The power generation capabilities of many electric Pokémon are uneven. For example, Togeda and Tolgodemar belong to the category with relatively poor power generation capabilities. Tolgodemar is okay, but lighting up Togeda is really fun.

Mamane asked it to use electric discharge as soon as it came up. You can imagine how powerful it was, so it was able to dodge it by using the flapping wings to create distance.

"Flutter, when you see the next one on the opposite side appear, use Shadow Ball!"

After verifying his guess, Jiang Cheng stopped acting. His plan changed and he was ready to withdraw from the team!

He already had an idea of ​​what Mamane would choose as his next elf.

Jiang Cheng didn't have any special abilities like super powers, so he couldn't command the flight with his mind. He flapped his wings and flew quite high, so he could only shout out his plan. Although it sounded a bit loud and conspiratorial, there was really no other way at the moment.

It may be a bit too much to use an out-of-specification Pokémon like Flutter right at the start, but after all, you guys only have a few Pokémon, and this three-on-three team is forced together. In comparison, your good partner Kavi is the real top-notch one, and he directly uses his grandfather's mount Pokémon to fight.

Kukui also heard Jiang Cheng's words, but did not react too much. He just thought to himself, sure enough, it happened again. This kid's reading of the command first... is really radical.

The tactics are meticulous, the attribute restraint is understood, and the battle command is radical. Is the teaching intensity of the trainer school in Donghuang so high?

This kid hasn't even been a trainer for long!

No one is born with knowledge. To be able to perform to this day means that he has put in countless times more effort in places that others cannot see!

Kukui's mind couldn't help but start to wander. The Alola region has always been isolated from the outside world, and the battle atmosphere has always been relatively mild. Even captains from all over the place still have frequent problems in battles. However, this is the case for Alola as a whole. If they want to change it, they can only start from the outside world.

Jiang Cheng is like a catfish king that suddenly breaks into a fish pond. Perhaps he can stir up the sluggish Alola fish pond and make it lively!

"Please release the next Pokémon!"

"Come back, Togodemar, you did a great job." Mamane was obviously very surprised by the battle situation in front of him. In his previous battle experience, he had never encountered such an opponent. The offensive rhythm was suffocating and there was no decision-making time. Togodemar didn't even have a chance to resist and was directly solved by the opponent.

The situation is bad, but Mamane’s condition is much better than before. Anyway, it’s like this now, and any decision will be positive. We might as well take it seriously and give it a try!

"Come out, Shovelworm!"

A white light flashed, and a huge beetle with a strange appearance appeared on the field. Its back and abdomen were flat and round, and it had a staggered mouthparts. There was a huge scutellum behind its head. Its dorsal plate was open, and its elytra vibrated into a semicircle behind its back. It flew in the air, dragging its huge body. The most eye-catching thing was its huge upper jaw with a bright yellow outer edge, which was extremely large and shaped like an electromagnetic track system.

It is one of the leaders of the insect system, the savior of the household insects, the shovel-shaped cannon bug!

"Stag Cannon, a stag beetle Pokémon, is a bug and electric type. It hovers in the air, waiting for an opportunity to strike, and uses its huge jaws to accumulate electrical energy and fire it at the enemy."

"Introductions completed, Lotor!"

"Flutter Hair, Shadow Ball!"

Almost at the moment when the Shovel Cannon Bug appeared, Jiang Cheng's order was released, and a black shadow ball was immediately generated from the flapping wing mouth that had been prepared before, and was instantly fired towards the Shovel Cannon Bug!

Cannonball, which had just been released from the Poké Ball, tried to dodge, but the Shadow Ball was too fast. This was a skill with a 100% hit rate, which meant that its flying speed was impossible for any Pokémon to react to.

The shadow ball hit the Shoveltie Cannon Bug hard in the face, and it was knocked to the ground, raising a large cloud of dust on the ground.

"Oh no, why is there smoke?" Jiang Cheng frowned. In the world of the second dimension, smoke means no damage. This shadow ball can't be without damage...

What Jiang Cheng worried about finally came true. When the smoke cleared, the figure of the shovel-cutter beetle appeared in front of everyone again.

There are scars on his body, but it seems that he can still fight.

"This shouldn't be the case... Could it be that he was wearing a shawl of aura?" Jiang Cheng was puzzled. How could he not be killed? Could it be that he had triggered some kind of idealistic power?

But after thinking about it, he suddenly felt relieved. Yes, although the Shovelworm can evolve only in the special magnetic field near Tianguan Mountain, this Shovelworm is Mamane's trump card, and its level must be above level 30. Under the level suppression, it is indeed difficult to kill the opponent in one shot.

Well, if one shot doesn’t work, try two!

"Shovel cannon beetle, spit silk!" The shovel cannon beetle opened its mouthparts and spit out a ball of white silk thread, aiming at Zhenyifa's head. However, Zhenyifa just floated there motionless, tilted her head slightly, and the ball of silk thread brushed past her head.

"puff"

"puff"

"puff"

There were four more shots in succession, which was a considerable number, but none of them hit the flapping missile.

The wings flapped and dodged in the air with great ease, and he even had the leisure to look back to see where the silk threads had fallen.

"Good opportunity! Shovel Cannon Bug! Signal beam!"

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but slap his forehead.

Not Mamane, do you know Pokémon? What kind of moves are you using? I used Moon Force and Shadow Ball before, so it should be obvious that I am a ghost and a fairy, right? What do you mean by using bug-type moves all the time?

The pink light beam went straight towards the flapping wings, but the flapping wings just shifted slightly to avoid the beam. It randomly flapped its wings upwards, and the sweeping light beam passed under its body, spinning in the air, and the returning beam failed to hit it.

Is it possible for a skill with 100 hits to miss?

Jiang Cheng felt that his three views had been completely refreshed. Reality was indeed different from games. There were so many differences!

Seeing that the insect's light beam ended and preparing to release another move, he used his wings to condense a shadow ball again and threw it directly over.

This time, there is no miracle, the shovel cannon bug cannot fight!

Chapter 74: Pokémon Battles Don’t Just Know Pokémon

It was a best-of-three game. Since there was only one Pokémon left on Mamane's side, while Jiang Cheng's side was fully staffed, with even the Wingfax still in full condition, the outcome of the match was naturally no surprise.

The gap in strength between the two sides was too great, and continuing would only undermine Mamane's self-confidence, so Dr. Kukui ended the duel early.

To be honest, Dr. Kukui wanted to find out Jiang Cheng's background at the beginning, but before he could find out Jiang Cheng's background, he had already found out Mamane's background.

Didn't he say he was the challenger?

I thought I was helping the students who were lagging behind, but unexpectedly I found out a talented person!

However, there are teaching methods for poor students and there are teaching methods for dragons who have crossed the river. Professor Kukui is already prepared to let Jiang Cheng exist as the catfish king of the trainer school.

Jiang Cheng, who didn't know yet that he was labeled a villain because he knew too much about Pokémon, was still feeling the system sound that suddenly appeared in his mind.

[Battle victory, your Flutter Hair has successfully completed 20 duels, unlocking the effort value system. You can use the effort value to enhance the attributes of Pokémon. The current available effort value is: 3]

20 games? Didn't I play three games?

My effort value is 3. I just played 3v3, which means I get one point for each game? That's only 5 games, right? Could it be that the system also took into account the experience of fighting those bug-type Pokémons and Gastly in the hot spring? That's not right. Shouldn't my effort value be 20 points? Why is it only 3 points?
