Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game

Gengar, having dodged the freezing beam, stuck out its scarlet tongue and rolled its eyes at Milotic, seemingly mocking its inaccurate shooting skills.

"Damn it! Aim properly, Milotic!"

In an instant, Xia Chen seemed to have caught Ibu's influence, and his dramatic persona kicked in. He clenched his fists and roared in dissatisfaction.

"Ugh..."

A look of confusion crossed Minas's eyes, as if he didn't understand why Xia Chen was behaving so strangely today.

He knew Xia Chen's personality; he would never say such irrational things, whether in life or in battle.

There's only one possibility... He's trying to mislead the other side!

Milos gradually realized what Xia Chen wanted him to do.

…………

Xia Chen's angry accusations were loud enough to be clearly heard by Yin Li, who was only about twenty meters away.

Milotic understands Xia Chen, but he doesn't. Yin Li naturally believes that his opponent has already broken through Gengar's defenses with Gengar's agile and ghostly movements.

What should you do when facing an opponent who is already "anxious"?

Naturally, we continued to keep him on our toes, completely breaking his mentality.

Yin Li smiled slightly and waved to Gengar, who had turned around to wait for his instructions.

No rush, let's play along!

He's encountered many opponents like this; the worse they are, the more they enjoy playing against them. The more they miss, the more anxious they become, and the less they can hit.

In this vicious cycle, the opponent's Pokémon's energy will be consumed very quickly, while all you have to give up is a little bit of time and patience.

"Gengar!"

Gengar nodded with a grin, faithfully carrying out its trainer's will.

Turning his head, he began to wander aimlessly around Milotic again.

The way it came close and then disappeared was as if it were saying, "I'm back again, I'm going back again, hit me, you idiot!"

Gengar's actions were not very harmful, but extremely insulting. Milotic's droopy eyebrows shot up in anger, and Xia Chen behind him clenched his fists silently, feeling the same way.

He silently watched Gengar's figure, then suddenly said, "Milotic, now!"

But none of this escaped Yin Li's focused eyes. Almost as soon as Xia Chen opened his mouth, Yin Li quickly commanded, "Gengar, retreat and take cover!"

"Gengar!" came Gengar's reply from the battlefield.

Watching the purple figure floating in the air skillfully retreat, Yin Li smiled slightly.

I missed the first time with the same trick, do you think I'll hit it again the second time?

But Milotic's next move on the battlefield instantly froze his smile.

Chapter 115 "Milotic, use Whirlwind Dance!"

After the two Pokémon finished exchanging moves, the rhythm of the battle on the field became somewhat strange.

Among the guests on the sidelines, the coaches, who were professional trainers, were the first to notice this.

At that moment, they were whispering and discussing the situation on the field.

"What's wrong with Xia Chen today? Why is he so agitated? It's so different from his composed commanding style the other day..."

"While this Gengar is indeed significantly stronger than MetalGreymon and Incineroar, is there really any need to be in such a hurry?"

"See, I told you, Milotic really can't beat this Gengar. It's perfectly normal for it to get anxious when it can't beat it."

"Xia Chen still has the common problem of rookie trainers; he gets deformed under pressure. Yin Li's command is really good. Now we just need to wear down the opponent's patience."

Unlike the bustling teachers in the back row, Yu Chaohua, sitting in the center of the front row, had a thoughtful expression on his face.

Although the teachers' explanations were reasonable and could fully explain Xia Chen's emotional journey.

But for some reason, he always felt that Xia Chen was now like a...drama queen whose desire to perform had been aroused.

But if it's acting, what is Xia Chen's purpose?

Is he trying to use this to cover up Milotic's upcoming attack?

For example...hypnosis?

Yu Chaohua had a slight realization. Recalling the final psychological battle with Chen Mo that day, this should be the choice that best suited Xia Chen, that little fox.

Thinking of this, Yu Chaohua unconsciously smiled a smug smile, as if saying, "I am the only one who is sober while everyone else is drunk."

Although he was once the trainer closest to the top, that did not stop Yu Chaohua from being interested in these amateur Pokémon battles, which he considered to be like children playing house.

At least, the fact that the two little guys were actually fighting so well on the field piqued his curiosity.

Xia Chen, in particular, employed advanced psychological warfare techniques in amateur-level matches, which truly impressed everyone.

However, you can fool your opponents and ordinary teachers, but you still can't fool me.

Yu Chaohua looked towards the field with a hint of smugness, ready to verify his conjecture.

But the sight of the battlefield stunned him.

…………

On the battlefield, as the purple figure gradually disappeared into the distance, Milotic did not exhale any icy blue breath.

Instead, to the astonishment of the entire audience, it began to spin!

This move is... Dragon Dance?!

Surprise, doubt, shock... everyone felt a mix of emotions at that moment.

What surprised them was that they only now realized that Xia Chen's outburst of anger and defensiveness was all an act, a mere trick to mislead his opponents.

Even the most vocal and argumentative commentators had to admit that Xia Chen had indeed fooled them, but he had laid out numerous traps and foreshadowed so much...

Just for this Dragon Dance?

They really couldn't understand what the point of using Dragon Dance was, besides annoying the Garchomp family.

Just to improve speed, which is still inferior to Gengar's, plus an attack power boost that is almost useless?

If you have the skill to perform a dragon dance, wouldn't it be better to ask for rain?

Could it be that Milotic misunderstood Xia Chen's intentions and misjudged the situation by using Dragon Dance?

No one could understand Xia Chen and Milos's moves, including his opponent Yin Li.

To be honest, when he realized that everything that had just happened was a trap carefully prepared by Xia Chen, he admitted that he panicked.

Once the rainy season, which greatly benefits Milotic, is activated, Gengar's advantage will disappear.

But when he saw that Milotic's move was not Rain Dance, but Dragon Dance, his mood returned from the abyss to the high mountain.

Although he didn't know what Xia Chen and Milos meant, Yin Li calmed down again.

If it's Dragon Dance, it won't have any impact on the situation at all; it will just make Milotic a little faster.

Even if it's fast, can it be faster than my Gengar?

Looking at Milotic, which was still spinning, Yin Li calmly commanded, "Gengar, fly over and use Thunderbolt!"

"Gengar!"

Gengar, equally annoyed at being outmaneuvered by its opponent, leaped forward with incredible speed as its purple, gaseous body darted away.

At the same time, the energy within his body condensed slightly, and wisps of bright yellow electric arcs appeared on the surface of his body.

This time, having learned his lesson, Yin Li didn't want to play mind games anymore. Since I'm stronger than you, I'll defeat you fair and square on the battlefield!

…………

Even while flying at high speed, Gengar kept an eye on Milotic's condition.

Although Dragon Dance is not a defensive move, many Pokémon release a considerable amount of energy when they use it.

For example, right now, the energy surrounding Milotic like the wind will reduce the damage from external attacks.

Although the damage wasn't significant, Gengar, being a stickler for detail, didn't overlook any aspect that might affect the situation.

Seeing Milotic's body gradually stop spinning, and the energy emanating from its body and spreading into the surrounding environment gradually dissipating into the wind, Gengar's blood-red eyes narrowed, and it made a fierce move.

The pent-up electrical energy burst forth from Gengar's body, instantly condensing into a bright yellow lightning bolt almost as thick as Gengar's arm.

Razer roared and surged toward Milotic, who had just stopped its dance.

Because it was released almost face-to-face, Milotic had no room to dodge.

The moment Milotic's spinning body came to a stop, the long-charged, incredibly powerful 100,000 volts struck Milotic's body directly.

The crackling sound of electricity flowed continuously through Milotic's cream-colored body, and the powerful electric shock caused wisps of electricity to appear all over Milotic's body.

Yin Li nodded in satisfaction. Gengar's Thunderbolt attack this time was perfectly timed and executed with great force.

Milotic must be completely paralyzed by the electric shocks by now, right?

As the electric light gradually subsided, Yin Li confidently looked at the opponent opposite Gengar, having taken a hit from Milotic's 100,000 volts.

However, Milotic's condition alarmed him somewhat...

In his mind, Milotic, who should have been electrocuted into a Muggle, was now only slightly charred, with long, silky curled eyebrows.

Apart from that... there are no other marks!

How can it be? !

Yin Li was filled with shock.

He had studied the recordings of Milotic's previous two matches, although in the first match against MetalGreymon, Milotic had shown unusual resistance to Electric-type moves.

However, MetalGreymon's Thunder Punch skill is not very advanced, far inferior to Gengar's Thunderbolt.

Secondly, although that lightning punch wasn't as violent as a normal water-type Pokémon with double the super-effectiveness, it still dealt more damage than a regular move.

But my 100,000 volts makes absolutely no sense!

How much power does my Gengar have? How much power does that MetalGrey have?

The effect it produced was actually not as good as that lightning fist?
