"That's the Pokémon that defeated Miss Nancy!"

"It's the one who defeated Miss Nazi!"

The audience cheered, apparently not noticing that a woman sitting in the front row had a row of black lines running down her face.

"What is this Pokémon called?"

"Looking at the video... it seems like she's calling Diancie?"

"Dianci! Diancie! Diancie!!"

"Diancie!"

Being beautiful, cute, powerful, good-looking and powerful is bound to be sought after. Diancie, who is currently at the top of the popularity list, received cheers from the audience as soon as she appeared on the stage.

Compared to her appearance in the video, Diancie looked much more beautiful in this spacious open-air arena today. The warm sunlight shone on her body like a gem.

"What a fantastic Pokémon..."

In the gym in Longjiang City, a girl was browsing the first-hand photos sent by her friends and couldn't help but sigh.

The few little diamonds around her quickly gathered around her, with envious expressions on their faces.

This... is a princess!

At the Magic City Gym, on the other side of the arena, old man Nian Hai also spoke with a smile.

"This Pokémon seems to be more popular than me, an old man."

"It just happens that the popularity has been high recently."

Qiao Ran did not feel proud of this. Nancy had also warned him about what might happen after Diancie appeared. As a veteran star actor, she had seen too many examples of people who were popular for a while. How to maintain this popularity was what they should do.

“It’s hard to say…”

Elder Nian Hai shook his head and said, "If they can beat me, I guess the popularity this time will be higher than before, right?"

"Who knows?" Qiao Ran blinked, neither denying nor admitting.

After all, the difficulty of this match was obvious, and he had even prepared for Diancie's defeat. If Diancie couldn't win, then he could only send out Cang Xiang and Yveltal, who were still in a damaged state.

"Both players are ready—"

The referee looked at the situation on both sides and was satisfied.

He nodded. Although the size difference in this match was huge, it was not as outrageous as in the previous match. He should not experience so many dangers, right?

"The game officially begins!!"

Following the referee's command, Qiao Ran immediately took out the stone hanging around his neck.

The opponent this time is different from the previous ones. The level 57 Metagross is not far from level 60. Moreover, considering its age, its original strength may have been level 60.

"Dianxi, mega evolution!"

The surging power overflowed from Qiao Ran's body and was injected into Diancie's body through the form of a connection. His heart and Diancie's heart were also connected to each other. In the light, Diancie's appearance also began to change.

"Comet Punch!"

Diancie started to mega, and Metagross naturally would not be idle either. Its body floated in the air, with its arms raised high, and with unstoppable power, it fell towards Diancie's position like a comet falling from the sky.

"boom!!!"

The weight of Metagross and its ridiculously high attack power make this punch terrifyingly powerful. If it were an ordinary Pokémon, few would be able to stand up after being hit by this punch.

However, amidst the slightly dispersing smoke and dust, Diancie, who had changed into her princess outfit again, did not fall. Not only did she not fall, but she also tightly grasped a diamond shield in her hands, temporarily blocking the opponent's attack.

After the mega evolution, Diancie's dual attack is not inferior to that of Metagross, and is even higher. However... facing the terrifying brute force and some restrained skills, she still finds it difficult to fight directly.

"Increase the intensity!"

Old Man Nian Hai's sudden words made the body of the Metagross glow. It actually started to spin slightly on the spot. A layer of telekinesis was added to its fist. The increased force made Diancie unable to support it anymore. Her body flew backwards and hit the ground.

It stirred up a cloud of rubble.

Chapter 380 [Steel]

There is no doubt that Diancie is very strong after mega evolution.

However, in a head-on confrontation, it is still difficult to match the Metagross with four arms and the ability to use telekinesis, not to mention the difference in size and weight between the two sides, which will only become greater.

In fact, if Diancie's attack power was not high enough, she would have been knocked away the moment she started to resist, instead of waiting until now.

"……Well."

The collision between steel and diamond has ended. From that moment on, Qiao Ran already understood that the road of head-on confrontation has been completely blocked.

Qiao Ran covered his arm and felt the pain on Diancie's body. After three battles, he was also exhausted. Connecting with Pokémon has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that his commands can be transmitted to Pokémon before he speaks them, just like the old man and Nancy opposite. Although they sometimes shout out the names of their moves, that is just a means for the gym leader to liven up the atmosphere or increase momentum. In fact, when using skills, they will still handle it like Qiao Ran - before they shout, the Pokémon has already started to act.

The disadvantage of being connected to the Pokémon's consciousness... or another consequence of the high degree of mental unity is the transmission of pain. Especially when the battle continues to drag on, Qiao Ran cannot recover from the pain in his body through his own power of Evergreen.

Moreover, in the mega state, the pain would only become more pronounced, not lessened. Fortunately, Qiao Ran had experienced many more brutal battles before, and had already forged a strong body. He could still endure this little pain, and it did not interfere with his command.

"But... Diancie is still at a huge disadvantage against Steel-type Pokémon..."

Looking at Diancie who emerged again from the crack in the ground, Qiao Ran still had an extremely serious expression.

Although in the brief confrontation just now, Diancie used her ability to generate diamonds to block the comet punch of the giant monster, avoiding the first wave of direct damage, as long as she is not directly killed by the skill

If it is hit, then the four times terrifying damage will not directly attack Diancie.

However, this is not a method that can be used in the long run. Even if you block it, it is only a matter of time before you are knocked away. If you are directly knocked to the ground, the impact damage you suffer is not small.

So, the attribute that counters Metagross is...

"Dianci, the power of the earth!"

Qiao Ran decided to launch the attack himself this time. Ground-based attacks can cause double damage to Metagross, and... Diancie's speed far exceeds Metagross's after Mega, which is also a point that must be utilized.

"Di!!!"

Diancie floated in the air holding the diamond shield. With her free hand, she gently pointed, and the ground beneath the Metagross began to tremble violently. A powerful energy wave emerged from the broken earth and rushed straight towards the Metagross above.

"Get away!"

Faced with the ground-based moves, Old Man Nian Hai did not let Metagross take it head-on. After all, it was double damage anyway, and compared to Metagross's physical defense, its special defense was not high enough to ignore the damage.

“@#*@&#!”

Metagross made a series of metallic friction-like sounds, and the dark blue telekinesis quickly covered its body, interacting with the magnetic force that drove its body, narrowly avoiding Diancie's skills.

Although its speed is not as fast as Diancie, the preparation time of Earth Force does give Metagross room to prepare, and it is still too difficult to hit it directly with this skill.

"..."

Qiao Ran's several attempts did not produce good results, and Old Man Nian Hai also saw the opportunity and let the giant golden monster attack again.

“…Comet Fist!”

He was also an experienced trainer, so he naturally guessed what Qiao Ran might be thinking. At the same time, from the video of the previous battle with Nancy, he also roughly guessed Diancie's attributes. Whether it was fairy or rock - both were restrained by steel.

Moreover, from the previous confrontation, we can conclude that the opponent has no advantage in close combat.

Metagross is different from ordinary Pokémon. Its entire body is made of metal and it does not have the flesh and blood structure of ordinary Pokémon. It cannot feel pain and is almost invincible in close combat.

Once again, Metagross swung its huge fist and charged towards Diancie. Qiao Ran knew that he could not resist, so he could only let Diancie use a move to dodge the magic skill first.

"Dianci, get out of the way!"

With Diancie's speed, it wouldn't be difficult for her to dodge the opponent's attack while it was still in its initial stages, as long as nothing unexpected happened in the middle.

Yes, as long as nothing unexpected happens along the way.

——However, the old man Nian Hai on the opposite side obviously would not let Qiao Ran have his way.

"Metrogross, speed up!"

Suddenly, the two arms behind the Titanfall emitted bright light, and it swung its fists backwards and released energy at the same time. Along with this strange scene, the speed of the Titanfall was actually increased.

"Tsk!"

Faced with this unreasonable ability, Diancie, who was unable to dodge, could only raise her shield to block it again. It was impossible for her to take a comet punch head-on. This move would cause too much damage to Diancie. Even Qiao Ran would not take such a risk.

The steel fist and the diamond shield collided, making a sharp sound. The attack of the Titanfall did not directly shatter the shield. The hardness of the Eternal Diamond was even stronger than imagined. However, with the experience from last time, Old Man Nian Hai would not give up here.

"it's useless!"

As he spoke, Metagross suddenly spun its body, and at the same time, its other fists began to glow.

"My Metagross has all its arms able to use skills at the same time, and they can use different skills."

"How long can you resist?"

Metagross's second punch was already swung, ready to hit Diancie's shield. This time, Old Man Nianhai didn't want to knock Diancie away, but to use repeated attacks to directly shatter the shield.

"..."

Qiao Ran pursed his lips.

Once you are dragged into the quagmire of close combat by the opponent, it is not so easy to escape.

However, this does not mean that he has lost his last chance.

"Diancie!"

"...Magic flames!"

"what?"

Qiao Ran's sudden voice startled the old man Nian Hai opposite him.

...magic...fire?

This is……

——In the arena, Diancie, who was originally unable to resist the attack, suddenly focused her eyes and slightly opened her mouth. A ring of fire larger than her body gradually spread around her.

Immediately afterwards, a series of bright red flames began to erupt from between the fire rings, rushing straight towards the giant golden monster in front.

In fact, Diancie only learned this skill recently. That's right, it was after the white dragon joined the team.
