Pokémon, start your journey from the East Glory Alliance

Zhang Long grinned.

"Have you seen the bond between me and Owl? Next, I'll show you the bond between me and Rotom. The rest is up to you. Go and clean Rotom!"

"Loto!"

Rotom, who was living in the washing machine, appeared on the battlefield.

On rainy days, clean Rotom, strong bodyguard.

"Rotom! You put Rotom in the rainy team!"

"Hey, hey, hey, Cleansing Rotom is also a water-type Pokémon. Go ahead, Rotom, use Thunder!"

"Loto!"

A violent thunder energy burst out, and a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and accurately hit the toucan.

“Quack—!”

The toucan gull wailed and fell down exhausted.

"Oh, damn it! You're cheating!"

Zhang Long spread his hands indifferently.

"Who stipulated that the Rainy Day Team must have pure Water Pokémon? Only by properly matching attributes can the potential of the Rainy Day Team be maximized. Hahaha, I learned it!"

Chapter 422: Rainy Day vs. Sandstorm

The moment Zhang Long came on to clean up Loto, the game was over.

Yunda Yang Rong's Rainy Day Team is actually a team composed entirely of Water-type Pokémon. No one can resist Rotom that thunders in the rain.

Thunder struck, and one child was struck by lightning.

At the end of the game, Lingnan University had gained a two-point advantage and took the match point first.

In the fourth round, taking advantage of the victory, Zhao Xuanzhen directly sent out Chen Siyuan.

Chen Siyuan also ended the battle while trying his best to retain his strength.

Among the sixteen teams, Lingnan University was the second to qualify from the group stage, and the first team to qualify was naturally Capital University.

"Capital University is still as high-profile as ever."

Zhang Long, who was sitting in the rest area, sighed.

Su Yuan rolled his eyes at Zhang Long.

"What? You're not being high-profile anymore? I saw you were shouting quite happily on the field just now."

"Tsk, what are you talking about? I have always had such a good personality."

"Yes, this is the style of Capital University."

Hearing this, Zhang Long spread his hands to indicate that he didn't want to talk to you.

"Hey Gengar, pack some melon seeds for me."

"Geng Ga?"

Geng Gui, who was sitting nearby eating snacks, glanced at Zhang Long, then reached into his stomach, took out a bag of melon seeds and threw it to him.

A group of people ate melon seeds while watching the game, and soon the first round of group matches were all over.

At the same time, this also means that eight of the sixteen teams have returned home, but being able to get to this point has already proved how strong they are. It's just that the remaining teams are better than them.

"Okay, everyone. The next match is the most crucial one. This is the last match of our group stage. As long as we win, we can enter the semi-finals and even compete with others for the championship. Everyone must show their greatest potential. It's time to check the results of everyone's training. Are you ready?"

"Ready!"

Encouraged by Zhao Xuanzhen, everyone was excited.

In the second round of the group stage, Lingnan University, which is in Group C, faced Beihe University, which is also in Group C and is from the north.

Without Su Yuan, Zhang Long and Chen Siyuan, the strength of both sides is similar.

After two rounds of confrontation, each team got one point.

In the third round, Zhao Xuanzhen stopped testing and sent out Zhang Long again.

The opponent seemed to have guessed that the Ling Conference would send Zhang Long, and they also made a choice.

On the field, Zhang Long bowed again.

"Hello, I'm Zhang Long from Lingda, please give me some advice."

The other party bowed in return.

"Beihe University, Shiyang."

"Game start!"

Following the referee's order, both sides sent out their Pokémon at the same time.

The toucan came on the scene and started its own special rainfall.

Dark clouds rose above the battlefield and heavy rain fell instantly.

However, the heavy rain had not lasted long when a cloud of dust suddenly rose up and directly covered the rainy sky.

"Wait a minute, how could this happen!?"

Zhang Long was stunned for a moment and looked at the opponent's Pokémon, a Pokémon made of piles of blue rocks, Rock Monster.

The speed of Pang Yanguai is slower than that of the Toucan. Its characteristic of raising sand is activated later. The sandstorm created by raising sand directly covers the rainy day effect created by the rainfall activated earlier.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I never expected to see two weathermen fighting for the weather in a college league."

Su Yuan, who was off the court, couldn't help but sigh. It had been a long time since he saw different hands grabbing the weather.

After all, the weather team was not so popular in the generations of games updated before the world line changed, especially the eighth and ninth generations. In the eighth generation of Dynamax, some Pokémon with specific attributes can modify the weather after using moves, which makes the existence of the weather hand not so important.

In the ninth generation, the existence of ancient Pokémon allowed Team Clear Sky to be active for a period of time, but the Team Clear Sky that existed to activate the characteristics of the ancient Pokémon was not the traditional Team Clear Sky.

After the world line changed, because of the construction of my own team, with the presence of Blimwen and Agito, I am more inclined to the space system, and the tailwind system of Snarfing with Gyarados and Gengar.

Of course, if you want to play a weather team, it's not impossible. Boskodora can barely be associated with sandstorms, but only a little. And if you want to play a sandstorm team, you still have to wait to train another sandstorm weather player, Hippomon or Bangilas.

The training time and cost are there, and his own team system is basically mature, so these are not within Su Yuan's consideration.

While he was thinking, the battle on the field had already broken out.

Although he has lost the advantage of weather, Zhang Long is still the Zhang Long with full combat awareness.

"Gull, water cannon!"

"Cuck!"

The toucan flapped its wings, opened its mouth wide, and a terrifying stream of water spurted out instantly.

"Pang Yanguai, use hold!"

"rock!"

A large blue light curtain fell, covering the entire Pangyan monster.

"Boom~!"

The water cannon hit the light curtain and exploded instantly.

Full marks for visual effects, zero marks for actual effects.

Su Yuan looked at the opponent's operations and immediately analyzed the situation on the field.

"After the weather started, he didn't switch away right away, but chose to defend and take the damage from the sandstorm. He probably wanted to observe Zhang Long's thoughts after he lost the weather advantage. At the same time, the Pokémon in his back row might not be that susceptible to the sandstorm..."

Thinking of this, Su Yuan understood that the other party had done quite sufficient research on Zhang Long.

This Shi Yang's Pokémon configuration may be aimed at Zhang Long.

They defended and resisted the attacks of the toucan, while at the same time, the sandstorm flying above the battlefield was constantly consuming the toucan.

"You managed to hold it the first time, but I don't believe you can hold it alone! Toucan, water cannon!"

Zhang Long's idea was very simple. This huge rock monster must be dealt with. If he couldn't deal with it, he would use double swap to get the weather back, and the opponent could also use double swap to get the weather back.

So even if you kill the Greater Gull, you still have to replace the opponent's Giant Rock Monster, so that the Swamp King in your back row can come up and manually open the weather.

"Oh, I got you."

After the first round of confirmation, Shi Yang's lips curled up into a smile when he saw Zhang Long continue to command the large-billed gulls to attack.

"Come back, Pang Yan monster, it's your turn, Sea Rabbit Monster!"

With an extreme substitution, before the water cannon fell, the Giant Rock Monster on the field was taken back and replaced by the Sea Slug!

"Yeah~!"

A blue-green sea slug appeared, and the water cannon came crashing down.

However, there was no effect at all. Sea Slug's characteristic was activated, attracting water, making it immune to water-attribute attacks, and its special attack increased due to the nourishment of water.

"Nice substitution!"

Seeing this wave of substitutions, Su Yuan couldn't help but praise.

It seems that the Beihe University team has done sufficient research on Zhang Long and knows that he will let the black-billed gulls fight to the end.

By simply replacing the player, he saved the Giant Rock Monster while also benefiting from the special attack boost of the Sea Slug's water-draining characteristic.

"Zhang Long, Zhang Long, what are you going to do next?"

Chen Siyuan, who was sitting not far away, looked over and asked with some confusion.

"Isn't Zhang Long your good buddy? Why are you cheering for the other guy? It seems like you really want to see him lose?"

"What are you talking about? I am evaluating the game objectively. Shi Yang's substitution was indeed a brilliant one."

Chapter 423: I Predicted Your Prediction

Then Su Yuan said again.

"Besides, I believe in Zhang Long. With his combat awareness, this little difficulty won't be a problem for him."

"is it?"

"Just wait and see. He will prove it to you with his actual actions next."

As soon as he finished speaking, the situation on the field changed.

"Big-billed Gull, turn back quickly!"

"Qua~!"

The Toucan rushed directly towards the Sea Slug, crashed into its body, and then turned into a green light and returned to the Poké Ball on Zhang Long's waist.

At the same time, Zhang Long took out another Poké Ball.

"It's decided that it's you, go ahead, Lotte Kappa."

"Gah~!"

The beam of light fell, and a furry Lotte Kappa wearing a lotus leaf hat appeared.

"No matter who you replace, you have to take my attack first, ha ha!"

Sea Slug uses the move Yawn.

He opened his mouth and yawned. A special force acted on Lotte Kappa, and he suddenly felt tired.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Long and Shi Yang gave orders at the same time.

"Lotte Kappa!"

"Analysia!"

"come back!"

Sea Rabbitmon's Yawn has hit the target, and the opponent has replaced him with Rakuten Kappa, who must be trying to use grass-type moves to instantly kill Sea Rabbitmon, which is a great threat to the Rainy Day Team.

Unfortunately, everything had already been predicted by him and was within Shi Yang's calculations.

"I'm counting on you, Iwadono Ikan!"
