Pokémon: Starting as a Farmer Instead of a Trainer

Chapter 169 A Player in His True Colors Meets a Cheater (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The electromagnetic cannon exploded in the center of the arena; with such power, Riolu simply couldn't withstand it.

But when the smoke from the explosion cleared, it wasn't Riolu that appeared on the field, but Garchomp, who had just returned after leaving the field.

The moment Naruto discovered that the opponent was carrying an Evolution Stone, he was already prepared to switch. Seeing that the lock was basically confirmed, Porygon Type 2 was very likely to use the Electro Cannon, so he had Garchomp defend.

The electromagnetic cannon was ineffective against Garchomp. Although he successfully avoided one loss, he wasted his second chance to actively exchange energy, effectively cutting off his escape route.

"Are you kidding me?! You're being suppressed from the start. If you don't want to swallow Koffing, bring out some stronger Pokémon! I know you have some!"

Danyu clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, extremely anxious. She wasn't trying to morally blackmail Mingyou; she was genuinely just worried.

The onlookers could see the difference in strength between the two sides and couldn't help but wonder who this boy was. They soon learned from some local residents that he was actually one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Blueberry Academy.

Upon hearing this, Qi Shu, who was giving a live commentary, immediately began to introduce the matter. After all, her alma mater was Orange Academy, and Blueberry Academy, as Orange Academy's sister school, was naturally familiar to her.

Seeing Mingyou go against the wind, Wuli's pupils contracted, his body trembled slightly, and he turned to the side, pointing a finger at his opponent, and said in a deep voice, "You've prepared for days... and you use such a weak Pokémon to battle me? Are you looking down on me?! You've disappointed me so much!"

"..."

"Frozen Beam!"

Porygon Type 2 immediately condensed ice, and Naruto, who had been silent, finally reacted, with Garchomp digging a hole to avoid the attack.

Uriel reacted extremely quickly, immediately having Porygon 2 aim at its lower body and use Ice Beam again. After all, digging a hole and hitting your butt is common sense... but this only applies to ordinary trainers.

"Big characters blast!"

Mingyou waved and shouted, "This is a new move I learned by growing fruit using the cards given by Arcanine. You're a hardcore player, but I can learn any move I want, as long as it's available!"

Everyone has a bright future.

Feeling the ground tremble and the intense heat, Wu Li's face showed surprise for the first time, as if he had never expected the other party to use this approach.

However, the Polygon Type 2 is not the Polygon Type B, so it cannot fly at all, not to mention that the freezing beam has already been fired, making it temporarily unable to move...

The intense heat melted the surrounding snow, and billowing white smoke filled the open space. The Polygon Beast Type 2, unable to escape the sudden heat, was instantly scalded and suffered burns.

Faced with this unexpected situation, Uri didn't hesitate to take out a Poké Ball to recall Porygon2 and use this opportunity to quickly adjust his state and rhythm.

The next second, quicksand suddenly formed on the ground. Garchomp, which had been injured by its own Flame Burst, used the quicksand abyss to change the terrain and, like a predatory beast setting a trap, bit Porygon2's tail and dragged it down.

Entangled in the quicksand abyss, the Porygonian Type 2 could not be successfully retrieved, and the burn effect was triggered again.

Garchomp emerged from the ground, using the lingering white smoke to conceal itself. After maintaining a safe distance, Mingyou snapped his fingers: "Sandstorm!"

"Use electromagnetic levitation to fly out!"

Uriel reacted quickly, but half of Porygon 2's body had been pulled into quicksand by Garchomp, making it unable to move even when it tried to use electromagnetic levitation.

Then a sandstorm swept in...

Burns, sandstorms, and quicksand abyss—a triple torment!

They can't even regenerate themselves; their only chance is to wait for the quicksand abyss to end.

But can we really wait that long?

Wu Li could only stare helplessly, unable to do anything, but Ming You could do many things.

"Open the gates of greed, the Dragon Dance!"

As Naruto gave the command, Garchomp swung its claws amidst the disbelief and astonishment of everyone present. Its body was surrounded by a halo of red and pink mist, and its aura visibly increased.

Seeing this, everyone thought they might be seeing things. How could Garchomp really use Dragon Dance? But the aura it exuded was clearly real!

"How did you do that?!"

Danyu covered her mouth, utterly astonished, then suddenly realized something: "Could it be...?"

Mingyou didn't offer any explanation to the others; he just wanted to focus on the battle. After Garchomp successfully used Dragon Dance twice, Porygon 2 was completely submerged in the quicksand abyss.

Seeing the result of the match, Qi Shu immediately said to everyone in the live stream, "I can't believe they won like this. The boss is beautiful, but her fighting style is really ruthless..."

"Useless thing..."

Uriel recalled Porygon2, stared intently at Garchomp, made a decision in an instant, and then threw out the Poké Ball.

A flash of red light appeared, and a Gliscor spread its wings and took flight using the wind from the sandstorm. However, it was clearly not a Sand Cloak ability. Nevertheless, its type advantage rendered the previous strategy completely useless, although the Stealth Rock effect remained.

"Just playing petty tricks..."

Wu Li muttered to himself that trainers like him, who received formulaic battle instruction from schools, mostly looked down on this kind of unorthodox approach that relied on the Pokémon's own abilities to formulate tactics.

There's a faint sense of superiority that comes with higher education, completely unaware that all the world's top trainers are all self-taught.

The battle continued, and Scorpion King charged down using its Frozen Fang, but Garchomp, after its Dragon Dance, was far faster and swung its dragon claws at it.

Of all of Naruto's Pokémon, it was the one that loved battling the most, and now it was completely excited.

The moment the dragon claws collided with the frozen fangs, light flashed, and the Scorpion King was sent flying after only a second, completely losing ground in the contest of strength.

Uli was taken aback. Even if Garchomp used Dragon Dance twice, it couldn't possibly have such explosive power, right? Or was it that the opponent's physical strength was simply stronger?

"It all comes down to what you eat. Eat more when you can, I think that's very important."

Mingyou explained softly, seeing that the Scorpion King in the air was now in a state of extreme poison, she knew that this thing carried a poisonous orb with the property of poison healing.

It's a bit dirty, but...

"Do you think I'm afraid of you when I start my dragon dance!"

"shark!"

Garchomp took the initiative to attack, leaping into the air and swinging its claws. In the blink of an eye, it was already on the head of Gliscor. The opponent had no way to avoid it and could only use its giant pincers to protect its body and defend against the attack.

The sandstorm and the protective energy shield dispersed simultaneously. Taking advantage of this momentary opening, Scorpion King seized the opportunity, its tail swiftly stabbing upwards, successfully clamping down on Garchomp's neck and unleashing its poison strike!

Attack successful!

And inflict the poison status!

"Now! Crab Claw Hammer!"

Scorpion King gripped Garchomp tightly with its tail, intending to slam it to the ground using its falling speed. However, Garchomp kicked out, striking Scorpion King in the face and sending it crashing to the ground.

"What?!"

"If I don't let you catch me, how can I catch you better?"

Mingyou smiled calmly, and seeing the Gliscor being trampled to the ground by Garchomp, he whispered, "Earthquake!"

"shark!"

Garchomp controls the earth's energy, instantly transforming it into ripples that spread across the ground. Its mastery of ground-based energy is already unparalleled.

The ground began to shake violently, and the Scorpion King was pinned down and unable to fly.

Despite the Garchomp continuing to unleash its poison attacks, the Garchomp did not budge an inch.

As the dissipated shockwaves returned like a tidal wave, the Scorpion King didn't even have a chance to recover with poison healing, and was thus rendered unable to fight...

It wasn't even a Garchomp, but a Garchomp that killed two of them in one go. All the onlookers were dumbfounded and stared in disbelief.

"Wow... Although the Pokémon's strength is weaker than the opponent's, the trainer's awareness and skill are on a completely different level. This person is amazing!"

"But it's already a candle in the wind... Riolu can't possibly fight Incineroar."

"There's still one Pokémon that hasn't been revealed yet."

"..."

Wu Li stared wide-eyed, completely unexpected that he would be going against the wind like this. This was impossible; things shouldn't be going this way.

"hateful……"

He clenched his fist and sent out the Blazing Roaring Tiger again. The surrounding invisible rocks pierced directly into his body, with excellent results, and intimidation was activated at the same time.

Although Garchomp is already on its last legs, it still has the strength to fight against the last remaining member of the opposing team.

"shark!"

I'm hungry!

Both Pokémon were trying to raise their morale, but in terms of type, Incineroar was clearly at a disadvantage, but it was just a matter of type...

Wu Li suddenly pulled a black sphere from his pocket, shaped like a Poké Ball, and held it high. The crystalline energy in the surrounding air swept in like a storm and was absorbed into it.

Seeing this, many people around were very surprised. Isn't this the terrestrial crystal that only exists in the Parthian region? There haven't been many produced yet, have there?

"Wow~ This is so unexpected! I can see the crystallization of my hometown from so far away!"

Qi Shu burst into laughter, his face full of surprise.

"They've finally arrived!"

Mingyou watched with great interest. Last night, when Xiaozhao dragged her to train, she already knew that Wuli had Taijing Pearl. Beishang Township and Padiya region both have Taijing energy, so the other party would definitely use it.

The Taijing Bead was filled with Taijing energy, and the hexagonal crystal inside lit up. Wu Li threw it out forcefully, releasing all the energy above the Blazing Roaring Tiger's head, where it condensed into a crystal and exploded!

As the exploding crystals spread outwards along with the Taijing energy, the Blazing Roaring Tiger's entire body seemed to be coated with a layer of dazzling crystals, with a very dazzling gem on its head.

Its design features fragmented, asymmetrical color schemes and a transparent front and back, giving it a Gothic glass feel. The glass has a mischievous grinning face pattern that looks like it's popping out of nowhere, and the base is a crown-shaped ring with rivets, worn on the head of the Fiery Roaring Tiger.

"Is Tai Jing evil...?"
