Pokémon development strategy

This is no longer a question of grip in the conventional sense; it can only be achieved when the wheels have barbs hooked into the ground.

Chapter 117: Fighting the Weather

"gravity!"

When the car passed the top of the mound, Shen Qi saw the prompt from the sensing film.

All cars in regular competitions are uniformly affixed with a "sensing film". Once a skill is used that interferes with other cars, there will be a corresponding prompt.

The skill Pipi used was: Gravity

Use super powers to create a gravity field, which will press the flying and floating individuals back to the ground;

When using skills such as flying, jumping, and bouncing, you will be pulled back in the process of leaving the ground.

By using "gravity" in a small range, Pippi pressed the racing car that was just about to leave the ground back to the ground.

Under the effect of the "Gravity" skill, quickly rush down the slope, reduce the skill status to climb the slope, and continue to pass through the gravity field at high speed at the next take-off point to avoid jumping.

By changing the gravity, the gap between Pipi and the second place was nearly half a terrain area, a gap of nearly a hundred meters.

"So strong."

Shen Qi grabbed the tables and chairs to resist the up and down bumps. The ups and downs also affected Miss Qun'er's driving. Then he saw Pippi's racing car disappear from his sight.

Just after I finished praising Pippi, something even more terrifying happened.

The roar of a beast-like engine sounded, and you knew it was rose champagne without even looking.

A black shadow passed through the air, and Rose Champagne flew up a slope, jumping over two mounds, and activated three barrier-like skills in succession before landing.

Light Wall: Reduces physical damage

Reflection Wall: Reduces special attack damage and responds to indirect effects such as vibration and wear on the car.

And then...Hold on!

The hard barrier blocked the collision between the car body and the mound. The rose champagne fell violently to the ground and flew up with the next roar.

Good guy, leaping charge, huh?

"Rose Champagne!!"

The commentator's roar was deafening in the headphones.

“Rose Champagne quickly breaks through the gravel section!”

“The gap with the car in front is getting smaller and smaller!”

By the time the Corolla had driven out of the undulating section of road, the two cars in front had disappeared.

Shen Qi fell to third place and was on the verge of falling out of the expected range.

What is even more frightening is that the continuous hilly areas have slowed down the leading advantage, and a large number of cars behind have caught up. The more open terrain has also given some weird drivers more room to overtake.

The rewards for the regular season in Vermilion City are high, and Shen Qi’s potential opponents are not limited to Sandbell Cactus and Sun Eevee. After Pipi, there are stronger drivers who have surpassed him.

After completely leaving the terrain area, Shen Qi fell to 4th place, and the Sand Bell Cactus was also affected and fell to 6th place.

The sensor film of the car in front lit up as a warning, dark clouds gathered on the roof, and a drizzle began to fall.

Water Skills: Pray for Rain

Changes nearby weather to "Raining".

This is disgusting.

Because the weather was fine and the venue was not too humid, Miss Quner did not choose tires with good drainage.

Shen Qi thought that he might encounter skill interference, but the surface of most roads was dry, and rain tires did not grip as well as tires with shallow textures under normal conditions. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided not to make this choice.

As luck would have it, a rainy day racing car was right next to us. The rain created by our skills weakened the Corolla's grip, making it more difficult to slow down with the brakes. Accelerating too quickly would also cause the wheels to slip, wasting power.

Temporarily stop consuming [race energy], Shen Qi cursed.

"This bastard, what should he do on a rainy day?"

There is not much benefit in pure rainy days, and it is impossible to spend energy to maintain continuous range skills just for the tires with better drainage performance.

But...the guy in charge of the weather didn't speed up.

wow——

The water flow was cleared, and a racing car rushed up from the back row. The sound of the air intake channel was smooth and thick, and it was obvious that the speed value increased significantly.

Features: Easy to swim (light and brisk)

The speed in rainy weather is greatly increased.

The driver who was driving in the rain rolled down the window and saw it was a Lada!

No matter how outrageous it is, Rada can really learn to pray for rain.

clatter--

Radha called out.

'Come on, brother!'

“Thanks, brother!”

The racing car with rainy day buff is chasing after you, and the yo-yo in the cab triggers the free-wheeling feature, greatly increasing the speed, and the feature skill slot also adds an air intake effect to the car.

Shen Qi, who fell behind again, then realized that the opponent was playing a cooperative game.

"Is this how the Rainy Day Team is used?!"

Miss Skirt looked depressed, but she had to admit that this was not a foul.

After being overtaken by cars using rain tires one after another, the Sha Ling Cactus caught up.

A small sun gathered from the fire energy rises up and disperses the water rain clouds.

Sand Bell Cactus's ability: Sunny Day

Change the nearby weather to simulate a sunny day

Weather skills collided, and the water and fire skill lines took shape. There was no scene of alternating sunny and rainy days, but only energy fluctuations.

"Chicken Egg! Get ready to help!"

Affected by the skill collision, the rain effect is interrupted, and the car will quickly rush out of the wet ground while traveling at high speed.

A bunch of racing cars are squeezed into a corner in a close distance. There is no strict line control. The competition is all about who can be the first to get out of the corner.

'Not only do you have brothers, I also have sisters!'

Miss Skirt glanced in the rearview mirror and met the kind eyes of the Sand Bell Cactus.

boom--

The "help" effect was triggered, and the Corolla overtook the rain-weather car in front sideways and rushed out of the car group.

"Don't run too fast, we're about to enter Ziyuan Town."

Part of the regular race route passes through Ziyuan Town, and then returns to the starting point to count as the first lap.

The roads in the town are not difficult, the only problem is that the route is narrow, and Ziyuan Town is always filled with light fog, so the speed cannot be increased too fast;

A narrow road also has its advantages, as the cars behind don't have many opportunities to overtake.

You can hear the commentator's analysis in the headphones.

Pipi was in the lead, and the two B-class cars plus the C-class car that had taken advantage of the rain to overtake the front followed closely to form the first echelon.

"Hmm? Where's the Sun Eevee?"

The second group is Shen Qi. Both groups...didn't hear any news about rose champagne.

Logically speaking, she should have many wonderful performances...

Miss Skirt was also confused, "Even if I ran to the wrong place and ran to another place in Ziyuan Town, the commentator should have given me a hint."

"Could it be the paranormal events in Lavender Town...Pokemon Cemetery?"

On the outskirts of Ziyuan Town, you can see Kanto Radio from afar.

'Don't scare me.'

"You watch that TV station."

Through the thin mist that permeates the air all year round, you can see the main building of Kanto Radio, which looks like a tower.

'What happened to the radio station?'

Kanto Radio can be seen in the front left of the track, and Miss Skirt couldn't help but look up a few times.

"The tower at Kanto Radio was originally an urn tower."

'ah--'

The flower crown swayed slightly, and Miss Skirt freed her hand and patted Shen Qi on the shoulder.

"Why are you scaring me all of a sudden?"

"real…"

Calling it a columbarium is a bit inaccurate at best, but it means roughly the same thing.

In the earliest Red, Green and Blue versions, the tower that stored the Pokémon spirits in Lavender Town became Kanto Radio in the Gold/Silver versions.

Please note that it was a reconstruction, and the "Pokémon Tower" was actually changed into Kanto Radio.

As for the things inside, whether they are ashes or tablets, they have been moved to another underground place called the House of Souls/House of Memories. There are no Pokémon or trainers in it, and players can only meet Old Man Fuji.

"Don't distract me by saying weird things!"

Not only was the lady in the skirt distracted, but the car behind was also disturbed.

Because of the fright, the direction of Miss Skirt's racing car suddenly became unstable and the car body swayed, which scared the car behind, causing it to suddenly slow down and sway slightly.

Later, the sand bell cactus also became alert...

A strange feeling and weird shaking spread through the traffic.

Chapter 118: Vision of Ziyuan Town

Seeing the strangeness of the car behind in the rearview mirror, Shen Qi smiled faintly, his tension eased a little, and he quickly focused his attention.

The first group of cars are almost out of the Ziyuan Town section, and once they are out of the foggy town roads, they will speed up.

Pipi and the other three cars constitute the first echelon. Logically speaking, Shen Qi and Miss Qun'er should be ranked fifth.

But... there is still a mysterious missing rose champagne.

what happened?

There was clearly a drone following the scene in the sky, so why haven't we heard any news about rose champagne for so long?

It's not just the news about rose champagne, the public channel of the communication headset has not had any commentary audio for a long time.

"It's... a special phenomenon in Ziyuan Town!"

Shen Qi recalled one of the tips the organizers gave to the players before the regular season began.

The situation in Ziyuan Town is strange, and sometimes the signal is suddenly lost.

Drones fly high, so the impact is slightly smaller. Racing cars may lose contact briefly, but you just need to follow the track markings on the side of the road.

'ah--'

Miss Qun'er exclaimed again, startling Shen Qi who was coordinating energy.

The speed of the Corolla slowed down significantly. Shen Qi didn't need to ask any questions. A dark red racing car appeared about 40 meters ahead after turning the corner.

Rose champagne!

The driving track is shaky and the speed will never exceed 20 kilometers per hour, and it may not be able to outrun an electric bicycle.

It's scary enough. If Rose Champagne breaks down, it can just stop on the side of the road. There's no need to continue the race at this speed.

The strange signs and the environment of Ziyuan Town made Shen Qi feel a chill down his spine.

The speed of the Corolla dropped to 40 kilometers per hour unknowingly. The car behind it felt something was wrong, but did not want to miss the opportunity to overtake. From the rearview mirror, it could see the car body leaning to the right, so it wanted to speed up.
