Chapter 91 Like a slow-moving sapling tortoise

On the battlefield, Karuni and Gadriya exchanged a glance from hundreds of meters apart.

Almost simultaneously, two Poké Balls were launched.

"Ugh!"

"just!"

A giant ice dragon, 4 meters tall, appeared in the arena. The ice dragon stood proudly, and a chilling aura instantly spread out.

Opposite it was a giant scythe, its body covered in dark red armor, its pincers cold and menacing.

Mantis

Level: 63 Moves: Combo Slash (Instinct), Bullet Punch (Instinct), Sword Dance (Instinct), High Speed ​​Movement (Mastery), Shadow Clone (Mastery), Iron Wall (Mastery)...

Type control: Bug (30%), Steel (17%), Normal (16%), Flying (8%).

"Oh! Chief Karune has sent out the rare fossil Pokémon, Icedragon, but Icedragon, being a Rock/Ice type, has a four times weakness to Steel, making it super effective against Chief Cattleya's Scizor!"

The battle was about to begin, and the passionate voice of the commentator, Da Ye, rang out in the arena, igniting the emotions of the audience.

However, the two girls on the field had already blocked out the noise from the outside world.

Karuni only needs to command the battle, but Cattleya's tasks are much more complex.

Not only do they need to establish a mental link between Lusha and Scizor, but they also need to be ready to use their superpowers to support the battle at any time.

She didn't want Lu Sha to participate, and the other two were unreliable right now, so she hoped even more that Scizor could win against all three of them.

"Click! Scizor! Swords Dance + Agility to close the distance to the opponent!"

Lu Sha waved his little hands excitedly; it was his first time stepping onto such a stage in front of thousands of people.

Although the blame will fall on Cattleya regardless of the outcome, as the mastermind behind it all, her blood is boiling.

Excitement is understandable, but when it comes to crucial moments, it's always best to prioritize stability.

The Instinct level Sword Dance can still only be stacked 3 times, but each stack increases physical attack by as much as 130%.

This single-attribute, two-level amplification move, once it reaches the Instinct level, is not much worse than the Ultimate-level Soul Dance Sonic Boom.

With its master-level high-speed movement and three 100% speed boosts each, Scizor's speed is close to that of an Elite Four member.

"The Ice Dragon chose the combination of Iron Defense and Calm Mind, while the Scizor used Agility and Swords Dance... Both sides unanimously chose to stack buff moves first!"

"Wait, Scizor is using a special move to close in on the Ice Dragon at incredible speed!"

Karuni: "Blizzard! Stop it!"

"Ugh!"

Faced with the Scizor's charge, the Ice Dragon interrupted its meditation and only used Iron Wall once.

It roared to the sky, and a blizzard covering nearly a hundred meters appeared in the arena, about to engulf the scyther.

"Young lady! Scizor!"

Through the telepathic connection, Lu Sha's thoughts were instantly transmitted.

Gadria's eyes lit up with blue light, and at the same time, Scizor moved at its fastest speed, its body seemingly turning into light.

Bullet Punch!

Reality isn't like a game where you can always hit first, but an instinctive bullet punch can increase speed by 100%.

"Buzz!!!"

At the same time, the blizzard was forcibly stopped under Cattleya's telekinetic control.

All the spectators saw as if time stood still during the blizzard, and then a red streak of light instantly traversed hundreds of meters and struck the body of the ice dragon.

boom!!!

The near-Elite Four member Scizor unleashed its Instinct-level Bullet Punch, which, after being enhanced with three layers of Instinct-level Swords Dance, struck the Ice Dragon, which was of the same level and had a weakness four times greater. The outcome was inevitable.

"Oh my god!!!"

Da Ye's excited voice echoed throughout the arena: "One hit down!!! Chief Cattleya's Scizor, with a beautiful Bullet Punch, instantly killed Chief Karuni's Ice Dragon!!!"

"It seems that there are differences even among the top performers."

"What should Karuni do in this predicament?"

The replay of the instant kill appeared on various electronic screens on the battlefield.

Viewers who hadn't quite seen it yet, or even those who were still in shock, couldn't help but gasp and erupt in cheers as they watched the slow-motion replay on the screen.

A closely contested match is certainly entertaining.

But this is Sinnoh's home turf, and when faced with provocations from rival regions, a quick kill is the best response.

"Cattleya!!! Sinnoh!!!!"

Hearing the cheers and roars around her, Karuni's body trembled slightly.

She took a deep breath, her hands trembling as she recalled the Ice Dragon, whispering to the Poké Ball in her hand, "Ice Dragon, you did very well..."

The cheers and applause around her did not affect her mood.

She was prepared for the boos and insults when playing on the opponent's home turf.

She just didn't expect that she would lose her first match so easily.

Caldelia is very strong, so strong that she cannot resist her using conventional methods.

Whether it's the Scizor that can move and stack amplification at the same time, or Cattleya that can easily block blizzards with her telekinesis, they are both strong enough to make her feel heavy pressure.

Should we use that power?

Karuni stroked the pendant around her neck, a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

"Chief Karune, please release your Pokémon!"

Upon hearing Da Ye's reminder, Karuni's eyes returned to calm.

The Ice Dragon lost because of its fourfold weakness, and she wanted to try again.

Cattleya is strong, but she's not weak either!

"Go, Nianmeilong!"

As the Poké Ball was thrown, a white and purple dragon Pokémon, soft and cute yet exuding dragon might, appeared.

"Wow!! Champion Karen has sent out a pseudo-legendary Pokémon from the Kalos region, and it's even evolved into its final form, Goodra! Can Karen and her Goodra break through Scizor? Let's wait and see!"

Da Ye stood on the referee's platform and roared wildly, looking so passionate that he seemed eager to jump down and join the battle.

"Slash!"

"Psychic cover!"

Facing the quasi-god Nume Dragon, Rikusa's commands were concise and powerful.

He had almost figured out Karuni's strength.

He's only at the peak of the Dojo level, and hasn't yet reached the Quasi-Champion level.

It's enough to command near-Elite Four level Pokémon in battle, but that's about it.

"just!"

The Scizor transformed into a red lightning bolt once more, leaving a sharp, piercing sound as it cut through the air.

"Sticky Dragon, hold the line! Unleash a powerful counterattack with a massive fireball!"

Karuni's sharp cry rang out, and she and Nianmeilong crossed their arms, assuming a defensive stance.

Hold on!

It can withstand one attack.

But a pity.

As the translucent glow of the guardian light just rose, Cattleya gently raised her right hand and made a grasping motion in the air.

The defense that was strong enough to withstand a full-force attack from a near-Heavenly King shattered like glass.

Just then, Scizor arrived!

One strike!

Two cuts!

The Glutton cried out in pain, but sensing its master's determination not to lose, it endured the pain, opened its mouth, and aimed at the scythe with three slashes at close range, unleashing a powerful Flame Burst.

Scizor is four times weak to fire. If this breath attack lands, even if it doesn't kill Scizor, it will definitely be in bad shape.

But it's still a pity.

hum! ! !

A psychic barrier, like a shield, stood in front of the Scizor.

The scorching flames spread out, yet they could not harm the steel armor in the slightest.

Cattleya managed to withstand the attack on her own once again.

At the same time, the third strike descends!

Click!

A red lightning bolt pierced through the body of the Goommyu and appeared ten meters behind it.

The scyther retracted its pincers, and behind it, the enormous Goodra froze for a moment before crashing heavily to the ground.

fast!

All of this happened too fast.

From the moment Scizor attacks to the moment Goodra falls to the ground, less than 3 seconds have passed.

This is a battle between trainers at the near-Elite rank.

"Ooooooo!!! Sticky Dragon has fallen!"

"It's incredibly fast! The speed of the Scizor, combined with Chief Cattleya's psychic abilities, is almost unbelievable!" Da Ye exclaimed passionately.

"Compared to their teamwork, Chief Karuni was like a slow-moving sapling tortoise."

"Chief Karune has already lost two Pokémon. Facing the seemingly invincible Chief Cattleya, what will she do?"

Whether she can secure even one victory remains to be seen!

Hearing Da Ye's blatant teasing, Karuni silently withdrew her sticky dragon.

This commentator is so annoying!

If you're so capable, come down and fight me!

"Will we win a game...?"

Karuni gently stroked the pendant on her chest, then subconsciously looked up at the Carlos exchange group's private room.

The private room was surrounded by reflective glass, so she couldn't see anything.

Last year, she was still able to handle Ying Wusong with ease.

Why has such a genius appeared in Sinnoh this year?

Is her strength... really inferior to her opponent's?

No! It's not over yet!

Suddenly, she gripped the pendant tightly, abruptly raised her head, and stared directly at the calm, almost indifferent girl opposite her.

She has to win!

Even if we can only win one game!

Even if it means using that!

Bearing the honor of Carlos's new generation, she absolutely cannot afford to lose a single game!

"Go, Gardevoir!"
