Elf: Start with small diamonds, then mutate into Diancie!

Arcanine stared intently at Draco, let out a low growl, and leaped up at Draco, which was flying straight down at low altitude and was enveloped in white light. Flames instantly wrapped around its sharp canine teeth, waiting in Draco's flight path for it to crash into it!

In this situation, trainers cannot give commands without using special abilities; it all depends on the Pokémon's own judgment, honed through regular training.

"Ow—"

Dragapult, its body transformed into white light, flew straight along its trajectory like a fighter jet. Its narrow eyes narrowed, and stereotypes suggested that Pokémon like Dragapult and Dragapult looked rather cunning.

Yes, it's true.

With his quick thinking, Draco reacted instantly, twisting his body sharply to dodge Arcanine's Flame Fang, which was being fiercely bitten down by its jaw muscles.

Su Hao seized the opportunity and ordered, "Dragon Pulse!"

After dodging the Flame Fang, Doraki flew in an arc, turned around, and opened its mouth to unleash a long, thin Dragon Pulse.

Lin Xingyan and Arcanine were both stunned in surprise, then quickly reacted: "Flamethrower!"

Arcanine's fire-type energy surged, with large clusters of sparks swirling around its majestic body. Its limbs gripped the ground, its muscles taut and bulging, and it opened its mouth to spew out intensely hot flame rays!

Since ancient times, the left side of the ball has always been the loser, except for that pig ____.

Arcanine is impeccable in both physical attributes and energy moves. Lin Xingyan trained it to the point that it can even fight against Pokémon that are a level above it.

The blazing flames and the dragon's energy were locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand for a time.

But he encountered the extraordinary Draco. Although Draco, who had just been promoted to Elite, could not overpower Arcanine for the time being, he was not fighting alone!

The Dragapult, Strider, and Ratna family are all Pokémon that are recognized as a single entity despite their large group size.

We are of one mind!

The younger brother, Doromexia, above Doronchi's head, is telepathically connected to his older brother; they understand each other's meanings without needing to be conveyed.

Doronmesia raised its small head, opened its mouth, and unleashed a dragon pulse even larger than itself, joining the battle!

The two dragon waves were released almost as one, their techniques merging without any repulsion, instantly becoming one.

In just one exchange, Arcanine's powerful jet attack was overwhelmed, and then a double Dragon Pulse shattered the jet attack with overwhelming force, crashing into Arcanine!

Boom—Bang!

The sound of the attack hitting flesh was deafening, and Arcanine was blasted backward by the force of the explosion, letting out a mournful howl.

As the smoke from the explosion dissipated, the battered and bruised Arcanine, though disheveled, still retained its imposing presence and struggled to its feet.

Meanwhile, Doronchi, who was opposite him, had already disappeared without a trace.

Lin Xingyan was taken aback, immediately realizing the threat, and hurriedly ordered, "Could it be... Arcanine, get out of the way!"

Because he didn't hear Su Hao give the order, he forgot that Duolongqi had a move called the unpredictable Spirit Strike!

Arcanine's reaction was incredibly fast; trusting its trainer implicitly, it reacted in just two seconds, and was about to unleash its power to dodge to the right when—

Draur, having already used Shadow Strike, coldly stared at Arcanine with its narrow eyes from another dimension, and was not going to give Arcanine a chance.

The moment Lin Xingyan realized what was happening, he opened a passage from the ground, and with a strong Ghost-type aura, he knocked the Arcanine away before it could even move!

------------

Colorful beans, soldiers in formation.

Chapter 228 Inadequacy

After being launched away by Shadow Stalker, Arcanine stubbornly stood up, staggered a few steps, and then collapsed with a thud!

"Growlithe is unable to battle, Drakkiss wins!"

Lin Xingyan recalled his Arcanine and said apologetically, "It was my carelessness. Thank you for your hard work."

Before Lin Xingyan could release a second Pokémon, Su Hao's voice rang out: "Come back, Dragapult."

"what?"

Lin Xingyan was taken aback. He was struggling with how to deal with the two-against-one Dragapult and considering whether to send out his ace Charizard when Su Hao recalled Dragapult.

The referee didn't give him time to think; there were no limits to this exchange.

Some players with extremely fast reflexes will even recall their Pokémon during a match when the opponent uses Electric or Water-type moves, and then send out Pokémon with abilities like Charge, Electric Engine, Lightning Rod, or Water Absorb to take the hit.

Although the referee was puzzled by Su Hao's decision to recall his Pokémon when he had the upper hand, he still upheld his professionalism and said, "Please send out your second Pokémon."

"...Blazing Chicken, it's yours now!"

"Soar through the sky, brave eagle!"

A flash of red light, and two brand new Pokémon appeared on the field.

A Blaziken Pokémon with white feathers, a V-shaped comb, blue eyes, bandaged claws, and strong, powerful legs—blaze appears on the field because... Correction, Blaziken.

...........

The Pokémon that Su Hao sent out caused a stir in the audience and the live broadcast room.

The audience erupted in uproar and heated discussion.

"Isn't that... a newly discovered variant of the Warrior Eagle!?"

"The color seems a bit different... The black body and bright blue crest feathers look kind of cool, and it's much bigger than normal!"

"Blaziken is a Fire/Fighting type, it's really in trouble now..."

...........

Lin Xingyan's eyes sharpened as he warily exclaimed, "A super-powered Warrior Eagle... and a late-stage elite!"

"He's a Pokémon I recently caught by chance. Please take good care of him," Su Hao said with a smile.

He approached the person in charge of the Sichuan region to inquire whether Brave Eagle could be used in a real battle against Pokémon with trainers, so that he could more directly understand Brave Eagle's shortcomings.

The eagle, a warrior that spends most of its time in the wild, has no idea what it means to play dumb or bide its time. It immediately displays its power and makes no attempt to hide it.

This can be considered a personality trait. Su Hao doesn't intend to forcefully correct it. It would be best if the Warriors Eagle were willing to learn to restrain themselves, but Su Hao won't force them if they're not.

After all, this kind of Pokémon has a straightforward and fearless personality.

Lin Xingyan didn't bother with any roundabout tactics; he directly ordered, "Blizzard, charge up Flame Strike!"

He needs to make good use of Blaziken's speed boost ability to stack the speed to the limit he can withstand in order to have a chance to defeat Braviary or Dragapult!

Blaziken, its body wreathed in flames, uses its incredible jumping ability to soar straight towards the mighty eagle in the sky!

Blaziken is really everywhere. After squinting and examining Blaziken's stats, Su Hao gave an unexpected command to Lin Xingyan: "Blow it away!"

Lin Xingyan: "......!"

He didn't understand. Su Hao should have known that his last creature was a Charizard!

The Warrior Eagle flapped its wings, which spanned three meters on each side, and awkwardly unleashed the blow-away technique it had recently learned.

Blaziken leaped high into the air, its body wreathed in flames, just as it was about to reach the Eagle in mid-air. Suddenly, a strong wind swept in, not only extinguishing the flames on Blaziken's body, but also causing a strange force to directly transform Blaziken into a red glow, returning it to its Poké Ball.

The third Poké Ball in Lin Xingyan's pocket automatically activated, and a powerful Charizard made its grand entrance!

Charizard is a Pokémon that everyone knows and is extremely popular. Unlike the usual Charizard, which has a creamy-colored, bulging belly, Lin Xingyan's Charizard has very firm muscles.

"Roar--!"

As soon as Charizard appeared, its belly tightened instantly, its domineering eyes fixed on the Warrior Eagle, and it spewed extremely hot flames into the sky in a show of defiance!

"...Fly up, air slash!"

"Let's do it too, Air Slash!"

Both sides gave the order at the same time, and the fire-breathing dragon spread its wings and took off. The strong wind blew the gravel off the field and in a few breaths it was in the air opposite the warrior eagle.

The two Pokémon flapped their wings at the same time, and countless crescent-shaped air slashes, resembling those of a weasel, collided, resulting in an evenly matched contest!

"Charge! Lightning Fist!"

"Tear Claws, intercept!"

Charizard let out a loud roar, and a bolt of lightning flashed across its arm, which was more slender than other Pokémon's. The lightning exploded, and its Thunder Fist was aimed directly at Brave Eagle!

The mighty eagle, not to be outdone, unleashed a powerful battle cry from its bright yellow beak, its strong talons radiating energy as it charged forward with the ferocity of a raptor hunting its prey!

The special effects were even better, with lightning exploding out. Fists and claws collided, and Normal and Electric energy repelled each other. The first blow was evenly matched!

boom! boom! boom!

The two Flying-type Pokémon kept colliding and vying with each other. Each collision created a strong gust of wind due to the powerful force, and some black feathers with scorch marks were scattered along with the wind.

It appears that neither side is willing to give in, and they are almost evenly matched, but that is not the case.

"..." Su Hao frowned, thinking to himself that he had just thought of it.

When the two Pokémon engage in aerial combat, Braviary's superior abilities allow it to withstand Charizard's fierce attacks. However, Charizard, with its extensive battle experience, manages to injure Braviary from the exploding lightning every time they cross paths, even though Braviary manages to block the deadly attacks.

This Charizard was incredibly skilled in aerial combat; Su Hao could even see a resemblance to his father's Charizard.

Every time Brave Eagle manages to suppress Thunder Punch with brute force, Charizard always manages to narrowly dodge Tear Claw with skill at the last second.

Brave Eagle's physique is undoubtedly strong, and the Boss Pokémon's qualities are all outstanding among their kind, but Charizard has also been trained well. In terms of overall strength, the two are evenly matched.

However, Charizard's skill was enough to outmaneuver Brave Eagle, which had not undergone systematic training and was not long ago still in its wild state.

"Wings of Aura!"

"Flame Jet!"

The fire-breathing dragon roared, unleashing a blazing line of fire that distorted the air with its intense heat.

Every seemingly inevitable attack by the Warrior Eagle was thwarted by Charizard, and the cunning Charizard would also steal many of its feathers with its electric shocks. At this point, the Warrior Eagle was getting quite agitated.

"Rage!"

The warrior eagle let out a furious cry, its wings emitting a mysterious pinkish-purple light, and with a powerful flap—

Several crescent-shaped scythes, larger than the previous air slashes, were covered by a mysterious spiritual aura, frantically cutting through the fire lines!

However, Aura Wings often loses its power after cutting the fire line in front of the Charizard, and the flames will come back again. At this time, the Brave Eagle can only endure the numbness in its wings and flap its wings again to release Aura Wings.

The red light, representing increased speed, flashed four or five times on the Warrior Eagle, and many of its Aura Wings broke through, causing damage to Charizard with its Flamethrower multiple times, when an unexpected event occurred...

Just like waking up with a terrible headache after drinking heavily the night before, a numbing sensation suddenly appeared from the wing that had been grazed by the lightning punch, and then spread rapidly, leaving the Warrior Eagle hovering in the air for a moment, almost falling down.

Su Hao opened his mouth to warn, "Warrior Eagle, be careful of their sneak attacks."
