Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

"For example, wing attacks, or air slashes?"

Indeed, as Vivian said, Breloom is a Fighting/Grass type, and four times weaker to Flying.

Wing attacks and air slashes, due to their quadruple damage bonus, will not be weaker than the previous Flame Charge.

You can completely avoid using Flame Charge, which can cause you damage.

Some of the more skilled trainers present also thought of this problem.

Like Vivian, she couldn't understand it either.

A-Si didn't answer, but instead asked, "Miss Vivian, do you know what skill Teng Shu had the Hat Mushroom use just now?"

Vivian pondered for a moment. She hadn't heard Teng Shu give any specific instructions, only vaguely something like "Let's make a move."

Based on the actions of the Breath-shroom just now, and after thinking about it carefully, I guessed: "Judging from the Breath-shroom's appearance, it should be a Seed Bomb or a Seed Machine Gun."

Ah Si shook his head and replied, "Wrong, Teng Shu's Hat Mushroom just used three skills."

"However, I don't have the two skills you mentioned."

Ah Si's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, and they all listened attentively.

Ah Si didn't hesitate either, saying, "The first skill is Mind's Eye, to aim at the Charizard flying in the air and ensure the hit rate of the following skills."

"The second skill is mushroom spores, but instead of attacking Charizard directly, it uses mushroom spores to cover Breloom's tail."

"Third, they used Iron Tail to throw the fruit containing mushroom spores at Charizard."

"The purpose of doing this is to make these fruits containing mushroom spores explode around the Charizard."

"If the Charizard comes into contact with mushroom spores, it will enter a sleep state."

"Once it enters a sleep state, Charizard will naturally fall to the ground."

"Then the spirochete will have a chance to launch an attack."

After Ah Si's explanation, Vivian had some understanding.

"I see. If we use wing attacks or air slashes..."

"Even if you knock off those fruits, the mushroom spores covering the fruit will still scatter in the air."

"Charizard will also be affected."

"That's why Haoyan had Charizard use Flare Charge, which engulfs its entire body in flames, to counteract the effects of the mushroom spores."

"At the same time, it can also damage the lichen."

Ah Si nodded and said seriously, "That's right!"

"Wow...that's amazing. You were able to see through the opponent's plan in such a short time."

"And, in an instant, I figured out a countermeasure."

"Haoyan, how did he do that?" Vivian exclaimed.

Ah Si said gravely, "Perhaps Hao Yan has a high-speed computer installed in his brain..."

... ...

Chapter 166 Avoid close combat if possible

Of course, Haoyan's head doesn't contain a computer.

The reason he was able to guess the straw mushroom's actions so quickly was...

That's because Breloom is such a unique Pokémon.

Its physical attack capabilities are very strong.

Among Grass-type Pokémon, it ranks fourth in physical attack.

The gap between them and the second and third place is negligible.

The speed isn't slow, and the other attributes are also acceptable.

However, what can improve Breloom is not its various attributes.

It's the skill that produces mushroom spores.

Basically, all trainers who use Breloom will focus their attacks on the Spore move.

Mushroom spores, that's a really powerful skill!

It can force you into a sleep state as soon as you come into contact with it.

It's much more effective than hypnosis, which is based on superpowers.

However, it is ineffective against Grass-type Pokémon and Pokémon with the Dustproof ability.

However, this does not diminish the strength of this skill.

Only four Pokémon can learn this skill.

It's impossible for Teng Shu not to use this skill.

Therefore, even without language, Haoyan could roughly guess Tengshu's thoughts.

... ...

Looking at the outside of the battlefield, Teng Shu seemed somewhat dejected.

Hao Yan, acting as his mentor, encouraged him, saying, "Teng Shu, you did a very good job just now."

"The transitions between the three skills are smooth and creative, and they catch people off guard."

Upon receiving affirmation from Shanai's "master," Teng Shu's disappointment vanished, and he quickly bowed his head in gratitude: "Thank you, master."

Haoyan waved his hand and said to him, "Let's adjust our condition first before starting the second round."

“Yes!” Teng Shu answered, standing up straight.

Then adjust your breathing and slowly bring your energy and spirit back.

Haoyan didn't urge him and let him adjust as he pleased.

After a while, Teng Shu adjusted his mindset and nodded to the referee.

The referee understood and waved his flag, announcing, "Haoyan challenges the martial arts dojo, second round, the battle begins!"

"Come out, my Poison Skull Frog!"

Tengshu unleashed his second Pokémon.

Automatically, the data appeared in Haoyan's mind.

Pokémon: Toxtricity

[Attribute]: Fighting, Poison

[Level]: 43

[Ability]: Poison Hand (Pokémon with this ability have a chance to poison their opponent when using a contact move.)

[Note: The Poison Hand trait does not conflict with the additional effects of moves.]

[Description]: The deadly poison secreted from the spikes of the fist is so potent that even a mere scratch can be fatal.

... ...

"Poison Skull Frog..." Hao Yan frowned slightly.

Toxicroak is an evolved form of Frogd, a combination of Poison and Fighting types, making it unique in the entire Pokémon world.

Although the Poison Skull Frog has a unique combination of attributes, it is not widely used.

Because the appearance of the poisonous skull frog is not appealing.

It is a blue, standing frog with a red venom sac on its lower jaw that is larger than its head.

This red venom sac is filled with a lot of venom, which is released in bursts with the breathing of the poisonous skeletal frog.

In addition to venom sacs, the limbs also have venom glands, which can poison opponents when they are hit.

The body was still sticky, as if covered with a layer of mucus.

Because of Toxicroak's characteristics, most trainers will avoid close combat when battling it.

First, the body is slippery and covered in mucus; second, contact with it can easily lead to poisoning.

"Xiao Long just used Flame Charge, and he has several wounds on his body."

"The poison of the Poison Skull Frog can seep through these tiny wounds, making it unsuitable to continue the battle."

"Although Xiao Ou is a Steel-type and not afraid of poison, the sticky slime on Toxicroak's body is quite disgusting."

"Once it gets stained, it'll be quite a hassle to clean it off."

"Avoid close combat if possible."

Haoyan quickly eliminated three Pokémon.

Among them are Charizard and Lucario.

And Gardevoir.

Gardevoir's Psychic-type is perfectly suited for battling Fighting and Poison-type monsters like Toxicroak.

Poison Skull Frog has four times the power of a weak psychic.

However, Hao Yan never even considered sending Gardevoir into the field.

Because in his subconscious, how could Gardevoir's beautiful, clean, and tidy body be tainted by such disgusting toxins!

"Little Si, this round is up to you." Hao Yan took out a gravity ball from his waist and threw it into the battlefield.

After a flash of red light, a massive figure appeared on the battlefield.

"Proud! Proud!"

The colossal beast, Tyranitar, stands twelve meters tall.

As soon as it left the Poké Ball, it let out a huge roar.

Its fierce and powerful aura intimidated everyone.
