Pokémon development strategy

The Flower Crown was already in a tight race with the Wind Horse, and the 'Electromagnetic Levitation' flew through two corners, and the Mengge Cactus was unable to stop it at all.

Flower crown, up to 3rd place!

Listening to the commentary on the public channel, Shen Qi let out a long sigh.

I had wanted to surpass the Mengge Cactus since before the Tsukimi Tunnel, but it had been blocked until now. After finally surpassing it, I felt really relaxed both physically and mentally.

"Ok?"

There was cheering again in the headphones.

"Pianyi! Pianyi chases the top 5!"

Glancing at the rearview mirror, Shen Qi discovered that the vehicle behind him had turned into a racing car with broken feather patterns.

The wing piloted by Pidgeot.

"Miss Skirt..."

Shen Qi described the situation at the next bend to Miss Qun'er, while leaving a message in the rearview mirror and observing Pidgeot's running method through the [Global Eye].

They used "flying" at the beginning of the serpentine curve, and it is true that they had an advantage for a while, but what about the follow-up?

How did you surpass it later?

When the Corolla turned, the distance was shortened by the Flying Wing, given the prior knowledge of the track conditions.

Little drift!

Shen Qi clearly saw that the body of the Pianyi car slid sideways. In fact, it cannot be called drifting, but "slipping".

Drifting is not the best cornering strategy in most cases, as giving up grip will result in a significant loss of speed and huge tire wear, known as "burnout".

Appropriate sliding in curves is a win-win solution that takes into account both tire durability and cornering strategy.

but…

The wing can slide precisely in every suitable curve, which is amazing.

Very confident, very precise, and like he knew how the track would go.

How come so many people can pre-read the track?

Soon, Shen Qi calmed down. Pidgeot certainly didn't have any tricks like "Global Eye" or "Clairvoyance". They could only catch up at the serpentine bend, which meant that they couldn't read the track in advance.

It’s “flying”!

Before determining that it was encountering a long serpentine bend, Pidgeot was brave enough to "fly". Perhaps he was a Pidgeot racer with the "sharp eyesight" characteristic, and he used the advantage of flying height to overlook the difficulties.

Chapter 915 The Last Qualification

whoosh-

The Corolla failed to stop the car and was overtaken by the Pianyi at the exit of the serpentine bend. Mengge Cactus activated its specialty of "spike defense" and overtook it by rubbing against the rocks on the side of the track.

Miss Qun'er and Shen Qi suddenly dropped to fifth place...

Continuous "slipping" while cornering should cause great damage to the tires.

If the tires are worn out by the second lap, it will not be worth it.

However, Shen Qi noticed another outrageous situation.

After the rules were updated last season, skills that would cause the car to move irrationally, such as "flying", "surfing", and "electromagnetic levitation", will now be prompted to avoid hidden dangers caused by the car in front suddenly flying up, or other changes that the car behind cannot reasonably judge.

Therefore, Shen Qi saw the skill prompt that lit up from time to time on the wing: Flying

Pidgeot has been using "Fly"!

The car didn't fly, but the skills were used in many corners. Shen Qi quickly figured out the reason.

The sliding of the Pidgeot does not rely on braking or other operations to make the tires lose grip, but... slightly turning on the "flying" function to make one of the tires leave the ground, creating a slightly slipping effect.

It did not wear out the tires and achieved the effect of cornering with a small slip. In addition, he had previously flown up to read the track, so Bi Diao was extremely confident.

The issue is…

“Isn’t this too precise?!”

Just let one tire slightly off the ground and stay there for as long as you want without breaking the rules. However, being able to do this on different bends is incredibly difficult.

Three words flashed through Shen Qi's mind. The special driver that Archer once mentioned: Brother with unique skills

I didn't expect wow...

Generally speaking, only trainers have special skills, because trainers have comprehensive control over attribute energy, many Pokémon, and many tactics that can be deployed.

I rarely hear about Pokémon masters.

I really learned a lot today.

Starting point…Huaguan crossed the finish line in 5th place and entered the 2nd lap.

Behind him, the B-class car Caiyu of Monarch Snake was chasing very closely...

By the second round, the advantage of [Global Eye] was not obvious, and Miss Skirt had to fight a defensive battle.

"Wow... they are too powerful."

"Yeah... huh!?"

Shen Qi was stunned when he was suddenly addressed by Miss Qun'er.

Stimulated by the fragrance of the Lan Mantis sisters, Miss Qun'er entered a state of ecstasy and frenzy. From the positioning match to the last lap, she did not actively communicate or respond.

just now…

Check Miss Skirt's mental concentration: 99%

For the drivers, this level of mental concentration is fine, but it is far lower than the 130% concentration when the "Miss in Black Skirt" mode was activated before.

"Miss Skirt, it's okay, hold on to the 5th place."

Shen Qi understood Miss Qun'er's pressure.

Despite the huge visual advantage in the first circle, he was tightly guarded by the Mengge Cactus in the tunnel, which made him feel very uncomfortable. His blockade was just like the "spike defense" he was good at, sharp and impenetrable.

When they reached the serpentine bend, they were overtaken by Pidgeot's outrageous skills.

Clearly having reached the best condition ever, he was back to struggling on the brink of life and death.

At this moment, Miss Qun'er's concentration was over 100%, not only because she was hit, but also because she was mentally exhausted.

Shen Qi had also experienced a similar feeling. When his strength and racing car were not very good, using the [Prayer Necklace] was equivalent to raising his mental concentration, and the mental power consumption and overdraft could be imagined.

Miss Skirt’s situation is not that serious, but she does not have the [Love Piggy Bank] to back her up.

"Ms. Qun'er, we have never fallen out of the top 5."

He started at the fifth position and is still fifth, which is not considered behind.

In fact, it was a failure that we failed to move forward in the first lap despite the huge advantage of Global Eye and our ranking remained stagnant.

However, at least there is still hope for advancement!

Entering the tunnel section, it is very convenient to defend against the vehicles behind. At the serpentine bend, Shen Qi has the "electromagnetic floating" tactic.

If you can maintain this position until the end, you will advance to the finals.

In the Tsukimi Tunnel, the T4 driver who had fallen from the No. 2 starting position launched a fierce attack, and Miss Skirt continued to defend.

After exiting the tunnel, Miss Skirt continued to block the vehicle, but after two consecutive times, she could no longer block the vehicle and let the car behind her pass.

Corolla…dropped to 6th place.

The intensity of the T2 competition is completely not on the same level as the T3 competition.

Miss Quner only had one round of experience last year, and the gap between her and the experienced drivers was obvious.

'what to do…'

"It's okay, just take off directly after entering the serpentine turn."

'what? '

In the previous round of tracks, we have tried out the most suitable spots for floating. If we use floating here and fail to exceed the ground cooling time specified by the rules, we will not be able to maximize the floating tactics in the most appropriate place.

"Then float twice."

Shen Qi was inspired by Pidgeot’s running style before.

They "flew" directly over the serpentine bend, mainly to get a bird's-eye view of the difficulty.

At the end of the serpentine turn, the wing just flew once more.

This means that from the time you use skills to leave the ground at the entrance to the time you exit the level, the limit will almost be refreshed.

The optimized "electromagnetic floating" in corners may save 2 seconds, but by floating twice at the head and tail, the time saved may be 1.3+1.3=2.6 seconds, which is a greater benefit.

Entering the serpentine bend, the Corolla turned on "electromagnetic floating" to jump over the bend and overtook the car in front, but was overtaken by the car "flying" back in the optimized bend.

When exiting the serpentine area, the Corolla has another chance to "electromagnetically float".

Take off!

The car below was aware of Corolla's tactics and tried to block the landing point, preventing Miss Skirt from landing normally.

bang——

With the sound of air flow exploding, the corolla in mid-air was suddenly pushed forward by the attribute energy, and it flew forward a long way. Not only did it not get stuck at the landing point, it also overtook and returned to the 5th place!

Game props, [Jet Energy]

Before the race started, Shen Qi hid a piece of his little finger at the rear of the Corolla. The reason why he didn't use it during the race was because the straight-line style technique could not use airflow to affect the car behind, and Miss Skirt didn't know how to overtake with a blade.

Instead of advancing in the sky, it is better to land normally and early.

The car is so heavy that the propulsion speed of [jet energy] cannot be as fast as that of the engine.

After lying in ambush for such a long time, [Jet Energy] finally came in handy. It accelerated a little in the air, causing the corolla to land far beyond the opponent's expectations.

The car that was blocking the position did not dare to stay directly under the Corolla. In case Miss Skirt made a mistake in operation, he would also be hit and retired from the race, so he just pushed the front of the car forward a little.

With only this little bit of space between them, the corolla was hit by the [Jet Energy] and was perfectly offset.

After turning the last corner, what comes into view is the long straight road before the finish line, and the cheers of the audience can be clearly heard through the car.

"Miss Skirt, step on the gas! Hold it tight!"

There is no absolute difference in the performance of the car, and it is unlikely to be overtaken on the straights, especially since the Corolla has been improved and its engine performance is better than the original one.

The car behind also stepped on the accelerator, and the speeds of both cars were almost the same, so the distance could not be shortened.

"The fifth person to cross the finish line is Hua Guan!"

"The flower crown of the sweet and cold queen!"

"Congratulations to her and trainer Shen Qi for getting the last qualification to advance to the finals!"

Chapter 916 You Are More Than This

'Shen...Shen Qi'

Inside the car, Miss Skirt took a long time to come to her senses, "We... have advanced to the finals?"

"Yes."

This scene reminded Shen Qi of the first T-level competition he accompanied Miss Qun'er to participate in, the autumn competition two years ago.

She barely advanced in the second round, and Miss Skirt also sat blankly at the steering wheel.

The difference is that Shen Qi at that time also sat there for a long time, but Shen Qi today... feels that Miss Qun'er is not limited to being at the bottom of the finals.

The original goal was to get into the finals. As long as we got in, it would be fine. It didn’t matter if we just relaxed and finished last.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, I met a lot of strong opponents in this game.

Firstly, there are 75 drivers in four groups in the second round, including three groups of 19 and one group of 18.

I didn’t get drawn into a group with fewer drivers, so my luck was a little bad. But I got drawn into the same group with the Mengyao + Songye combination, so my luck was extremely bad.

After the positioning competition, Shen Qi checked the results of the positioning competitions of other groups. The other three groups' extreme positioning competitions took an average of about 7 minutes and 50 seconds, and the Huanwu driven by Meng Yao took 7 minutes and 43 seconds.

The tracks are different, and it is impossible to be completely identical after dynamic balance. The situations across groups cannot be compared, and a difference of three to five seconds can tell who is stronger and who is weaker.
