Chapter 381 [Fire]

Steel-type Pokémon are very difficult to deal with.

This had always been the case for Diancie, a fact she'd already known back at the Jinling Gym. However, it wasn't until she'd met Cang Xiang and experienced his strength firsthand in the frontier that she truly developed a sense of crisis.

If ordinary Pokémon are just crushed by Sora Aoi, then Diancie against Sora Aoi is basically like fish on a chopping board, the kind that will break apart with a slight scratch.

Diancie also thought about how she could change the current situation. After all, not every Pokémon has a weakness that causes four times the damage, and every weakness that causes four times the damage would be a big concern for them.

Finally, all this took a turn for the better after the appearance of Reshiram. Although Reshiram was the representative of "reality", her control of "fire" had surpassed most legendary Pokémon. From Reshiram, Diancie actually learned a fire-type skill.

However, she had only mastered this skill for a short time, and shouldn't have thrown herself into battle so quickly. However, the current situation didn't allow her to hesitate any longer.

"Magic flame!"

Surrounded by a ring of flames, scarlet magic fire spurted out of Diancie's mouth, catching the Metagross off guard at a very close distance. Even old man Nian Hai probably didn't expect that Diancie would use such a move.

“*!@*&@#*(@!”

Metagross made a strange sound that sounded a bit painful, and even its body movements slowed down a bit. Its special defense was not very high, and it took such a skill in front of Mega Diancie whose dual attack was increased to the extreme. The damage caused was definitely not to be underestimated.

Taking advantage of this time, Diancie quietly distanced herself and used her ability to fill the cracks in the diamond shield to prevent the Metagross from suddenly attacking again.

"..."

Old man Nian Hai took a deep breath. The sudden change was somewhat unexpected for him, but since everything had happened, he would continue to fight.

A single magical flame was not enough to bring down the Metagross. When the slightly spreading smoke gradually dissipated, the Metagross's slightly charred body appeared in front of everyone.

"Who do you think will win this game?"

In the audience, Lillie looked nervously at the two "senior trainers" sitting next to her. The battle had reached this point, and she was a little afraid to continue watching.

"Metalloquin."

Nancy voted for Metagross without hesitation, and added in her mind that she was not seeking revenge, she just wanted the old man to win the game as a fellow psychic gym leader.

Moreover, judging from the strength on paper, the Metagross is indeed stronger, but... Nancy didn't know if it was her illusion, she seemed to be able to feel that the Diancie seemed to have become stronger compared to when it fought with her before.

Has there been any breakthrough in strength in these few days?

Or……

"Since you voted for Metagross, I'll vote for Diancie."

On the other side, Mei chose Qiao Ran's Diancie. After all, from her point of view, she also hoped that Diancie would win.

Besides, Diancie is not weak either.

"Hmm..." Hearing the two people say different results, Lillie became even more confused. However, she already had the answer to this question in her heart.

Diancie, Qiao Ran.

You must win!

————————————————————————————————————————————

The battle on the field continued. After being hit by a magical fire, Metagross began to feel a little tired. As for Diancie, in the previous few confrontations, although she used the diamond shield to block several times, she was eventually knocked away several times.

Moreover, even if blocking is performed, it does not mean that Diancie is 100% isolated from the damage caused by the opponent. To a certain extent, the opponent's skill damage will still be transmitted at a certain ratio.

"..."

Perhaps because of the magic flame, Old Man Nianhai did not let Metagross continue to approach Diancie in the same reckless way as before. Metagross's physical attack power is stronger than its special attack, but this does not mean that it has no means of launching special attacks.

"Metrogross, cannon!"

Following the voice of old man Nian Hai, the two front

The claws began to rise, and a grayish-white light began to spread all over its body. Then, the light gathered into a point - and condensed into a silver-gray ray.

Steel-attribute special attack skill, Cannon Beam!

"Want to use a ranged attack?"

The corners of Qiao Ran's mouth curled up slightly. If Diancie still needed to be wary of Metagross's physical attacks, she didn't need to worry too much about its special attacks.

Mega Diancie, with a dual attack of 150, is a dual-wielder with no weaknesses. She can switch seamlessly between physical and special attacks.

"Magic flame!"

A ring of fire once again condensed in front of Diancie, and raging flames spewed out from the ring. Although Diancie was not using skills of her own type and her proficiency was not satisfactory, she relied on her much higher racial value and the restraint of her skill attributes. The two energies actually began to wrestle with each other in mid-air.

In the end, these two destined to be incompatible energies caused a series of explosions in the center, and even the air was filled with the smell of burning and heat waves.

"boom!!!!!"

The violent explosions made the already horrific scene even worse. After today's game is over, it will probably take an unknown amount of time just to renovate the venue.

The referee standing at the edge of the ring covered his ears, trying to hold back the dizzying roar. He had originally thought this fight would be better than before, but it turned out that his guess was a little too naive.

"Sure enough, it's not that simple."

The attack failed, and old man Nian Hai sighed, but a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"Old man... I haven't fought here for a long time. I haven't fought for this long."

Enjoying battles is the best summary of a trainer’s life.

When he was young, Nian Hai once thought that it might be a romantic thing if he could spend the last second of his life on the field.

However, when the moment really came, such thoughts no longer existed in his mind.

Now, he actually hopes that he can live a long life. Only in this way can he experience more battles and feel the excitement that he has never experienced as a gym leader.

"Metrogross!"

“…&!@…#&!!”

Hearing the response from his old friend, Nian Hai widened his eyes, as if he had crossed the long arena and was looking directly at Qiao Ran on the other side.

"Now, it's time to end it, young man!"

Chapter 382 [Shock]

This battle may not take very long, but a battle of such intensity is also a huge burden for Qiao Ran.

“…Come on.”

Qiao Ran hooked his finger, and Diancie on the field made the same move as him. No one could predict the outcome of the battle, and they would not fall easily here.

"well!"

Nian Hai on the other side was also at the end of his strength. Although he was still standing on the battlefield, only he knew his physical condition. As an old man, his energy and physical strength were no longer enough to support long-term high-intensity command.

"Metallic! Comet Punch! Cannon Beam!"

The two fists in front of the Metagross gathered unparalleled brute force, while the two fists at the back suddenly bent over and shot silver-white rays at Diancie.

"Dianci, block it!"

Facing the incoming rays, Diancie didn't use her skills to block them directly, but instead raised her diamond shield. The rays struck the shield without causing much of a ripple, and some of them were even reflected in all directions by the diamonds.

"...And then, the magic flame!"

"...!"

After blocking Metagross's ranged attack, Diancie released her own skills. Her target was undoubtedly the Metagross that was rushing towards her!

That's too late!

A drop of sweat ran down old man Nianhai's forehead.

What exactly is that diamond and why is it so difficult to deal with?

After a moment of thought, a hint of determination flashed in old man Nian Hai's eyes.

"continue

Attack! Metagross! "

“&…!@&*!”

Facing the circular flames that were rushing towards it, the Metagross let out a roar like metallic friction. The silver-white light on its body still did not fade, and its huge body passed through the flames like a shot star, leaving a scarlet tail.

"Increase the firepower! Diancie!"

Qiao Ran also felt the opponent's determination. At this distance, it was impossible to dodge. What he could do was to continue to strengthen the connection with Diancie, allowing Diancie to launch an unprecedentedly powerful attack and completely suppress the opponent with firepower.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"

Energy surged out of Qiao Ran's body and began to flow into Diancie. Wrapped in the ring of flames, the white ribbons on Diancie's body fluttered violently, and the pink gems shone with the luster of energy. Not only that, the size of the flames exploded again, dyeing half of the sky above the arena red.

"...!!"

However, even facing such flames, a meteor still fell from the sky, hitting Diancie's body with unmatched momentum, and then - the meteor and Diancie were smashed into the ground together.

"boom!!!!"

In an instant, the ground shook, debris flew, and the entire arena seemed to be collapsing and shook violently.

Various alarms continued to sound, and even the audience sitting in the auditorium showed panic expressions.

"Fa...what happened?"

"Isn't it...going to collapse?"

There was a commotion among the crowd, but fortunately the commotion did not last long and everything gradually calmed down.

"Everyone, please return to your seats in an orderly manner. This is a normal part of the competition. Please don't panic... Our Magic City Gym has comprehensive safety measures..."

The sound of the radio spread, calming the agitated crowd.

It was not until this time that the people who had returned to their original seats looked back at the arena. What on earth was happening there?

What was the outcome of the battle?

Also, who are Nianhai Pavilion Master and that young man...

Are they... okay?

The smoke and dust dissipated slightly, revealing the appearance of the venue. The originally flat and clean venue had been destroyed into a rubble field, like a ruin ravaged by a monster. Even the place where the players stood was broken into pieces. There was no place intact on the entire venue.

On one side of the venue, old man Nian Hai's body was floating slightly in the air, his face was slightly pale, and there was still a lingering fear on his face.

"..."

He looked at the other side of the field. He was a little worried about the young man's situation, but... now it seems that he was thinking too much.
