Pokémon: Blessed by Fate, starting with the destruction of Tyranitar.

"Fine, I lose." Xinming reluctantly recalled Gyarados.

"Although you defeated Gyarados, that Gyarados belonged to that fisherman Hisao. It's my turn to send in my Pokémon now."

With that, Xinming threw out another Poké Ball.

Xinming's current opponent is a level 84 shellless sea hare, a water-type Pokémon.

When Swampert saw the Shell Gastrodon enter the arena, it immediately rushed in front of the Shell Gastrodon and used a Hammer Slam to smash the Shell Gastrodon hard.

However, this Fighting-type move is not effective against the Water-type Sea Gastrodon.

The shell-less sea hare successfully withstood Swampert's attack and then used Water Pulse on Swampert in return.

The shell-less sea hare spewed out a series of bubbles, one of which, a larger one, enveloped the Swampert before bursting open again.

The results were minimal!

Li Huowang's giant swamp monster's health only dropped slightly, so much so that it was barely noticeable unless you looked closely.

Xinming was immediately speechless with surprise.

His shell-less sea hare has a powerful attack; even if it can't kill the Swampert in one turn, it can at least take away a third of the Swampert's health.

However, Li Huowang's champion-level Swampert's defense was terrifyingly strong.

Of course, what Xinming didn't know was that Li Huowang's Swampert was also under the influence of the amplification effect of the Destiny Harmony Star God that its companion Gengar possessed, which is why it presented this result.

"Swamp Monster, use your arm hammer again."

162. The opponent's confidence crumbles and he completely collapses, challenging the Nose Gym Leader.

Swampert slammed its arm hammer at Xinming's shell-less sea hare.

Although the shell-less sea hare had made preparations in advance, Xinming felt somewhat helpless because the sea hare's own movement speed was simply too slow.

Before the shell-less sea hare could leave the Swampert's attack range, the Swampert arrived in front of the shell-less sea hare, and then the familiar Swampert swung its arm and slammed it down again.

The shell-less sea hare lost one-third of its remaining health.

"Your shell-less sea hare's health bar disappearing spell is pretty good, it's gone in the blink of an eye," Li Huowang chuckled.

"Don't be too happy, I still have elves."

As he spoke, Xinming switched to another Pokémon that Li Huowang was familiar with, the Longwing Gull.

"Another long-winged gull." Li Huowang was speechless for a moment.

Since he started challenging this Wildlands Gym, Swampert has defeated so many gulls that they could form a circle.

When Li Huowang saw that Xinming had sent out a shell-less sea hare, he felt that at least some new Pokémon had arrived.

However, to Li Huowang's surprise, before he could even feel happy for a while, Xinming took out another long-winged gull.

In that case, the Nose City Nose Gym might as well just be renamed the Longwing Gym.

Anyway, all the Pokémon trainers at this gym seem to love using Lillard.

Unsurprisingly, Li Huowang's giant swamp monster defeated the long-winged gull once again.

When Xinming saw that his long-winged gull was still defeated by the giant swamp monster, he also felt a strong sense of frustration.

"Okay, I admit that you are indeed stronger than me. Your Champion-level Swampert is no match for the Pokémon I have."

"You've given up so quickly?"

Li Huowang was somewhat surprised by Xinming's clean and decisive surrender.

He pointed to Xinming's remaining Poké Ball and said, "You still have one Pokémon that hasn't been used yet."

Xinming waved his hand, "Whether I play or not is meaningless."

"My remaining one is also a shellless sea hare, and its stats are the same as the first shellless sea hare I sent out. Even if I send it out, it won't be able to beat your Swampert."

"In that case, I might as well admit defeat now and end this battle."

Seeing that Xinming had lost all will to fight, Li Huowang stopped pressuring him.

In any case, by playing one less round of matches, you'll ultimately benefit yourself.

"Alright, you've chosen to concede, so I won't force you to continue. Get out of my way."

Xinming glanced at Li Huowang with a puzzled look, then realized what was happening and made way for Li Huowang.

After pressing the blue button behind Xinming, Li Huowang continued walking to the next room.

Just when Li Huowang thought he was about to have another battle with the Pokémon trainer dressed in fishing clothes in the room, the Pokémon trainer waved to him.

"I'm not fighting you anymore. Even Kosuke and Hisao can't beat you. Fighting you would only be humiliating for me."

"Oh?"

Li Huowang looked at the guy with great interest and said quietly, "Looks like you're quite self-aware."

"I watched your fight with Nobuaki from outside the door. I wouldn't say I'm self-aware, but our Nose Dojo's leader, Yoshinori, is very strong. He's the one you'll be challenging next. Get ready."

"understood."

Li Huowang nodded, then opened his backpack, took out a bottle of healing medicine, and handed it to the Swampert.

Although Swampert currently has a high HP, Li Huowang thought that it would be best to defeat Yoshinobu, the Gym Leader of Nose City, with Swampert and then restore Swampert's HP to full.

In any case, having more health points gives you a greater advantage.

Upon arriving at the room where Yoshinobu Nose Dojo was located, Li Huowang took several deep breaths to calm himself down before pushing open the door and entering.

Yoshinobu, the gym leader of Nose Dojo, is a trainer who wears a mask, making it impossible for Li Huowang to see the face behind the mask.

"You must be Yoshinobu, the headmaster of Nose Dojo? I'm Li Huowang, and I've come here specifically to challenge your Nose Dojo."

"After waiting for so long, is it finally time for another Pokémon Trainer to come to me?"

Ji Xian greeted Li Huowang with a smile, "I am someone who has been tested by water, and with my spirits, they can withstand all your attacks and achieve victory!"

"Anyone can talk big. If you know what's good for you, I think you should just admit defeat to me like those other Pokémon trainers and hand over the Swamp Badge of the Nose City Gym."

"This will save me some trouble, I'm in a hurry to go out to sea to catch Gyarados."

"No."

Ji Xian shook his head. "If you want to obtain the Swamp Badge, you must defeat me. I don't care if others admit defeat to you, but my principle is that you can only obtain the Swamp Badge by defeating me."

163. The Nose City Gym Leader plays it safe, bringing in Gyarados and using Protect.

When Li Huowang saw how stubborn Yoshino, the head of the Nose Dojo, was, he knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be useless.

Since Yoshinobu wanted to fight him, he had no problem with it.

Before entering Ji Xian's room, Li Huowang had already fully restored the stats of his giant swamp monster.

In addition, there are Gengar and a number of other Pokémon at full strength.

In the worst-case scenario, Li Huowang felt that his Tyranitar would definitely be able to defeat Ji Xian.

With that thought in mind, Li Huowang nodded.

"Haha, come on then."

Ji Xian narrowed his eyes slightly, ready to throw out a Poké Ball at any moment.

Yoshinobu sent out a Gyarados with a level of lv~.87 this time.

"Gyarados again?" Li Huowang looked at Ji Xian with some surprise.

"Gyarados is a relatively powerful Water-type Pokémon. As the Nose Gym Leader, who mainly uses Water-type Pokémon, it seems quite reasonable for me to own a Gyarados."

"How about we make a bet?" Li Huowang said with a wicked grin.

"What bet?"

"Okay, I'll fight you, but if you lose, you'll not only have to give me the Swamp Badge, but you'll also have to give me a Gyarados."

Just as Li Huowang had expected, Ji Xian shook his head immediately after hearing Li Huowang's explanation of the bet.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, your appetite is far too great."

As Ji Xian spoke, he took a few steps back and carefully put away the Poké Ball he used to store his Gyarados.

Seeing Ji Xian's reluctant expression, Li Huowang shook his head in disappointment.

It seems that Ji Xian is still a bit timid.

So Li Huowang teased, "You said you were a Pokémon trainer who had been tested by water, and that no matter how strong my Pokémon attacked yours, you could easily withstand it. It seems you were just talking the talk."

"I'm sorry, but I, Ji Xian, never agree to any bets made by others."

"Ok."

Li Huowang shook his head helplessly.

He knew, of course, that Ji Xian was just being stubborn and concerned about saving face.

Since Ji Xian was unwilling, he would not force him.

Anyway, he had already defeated Sailor Nobuaki, and Nobuaki had promised him that after he challenged Yoshinobu, the leader of the Nose Dojo, Nobuaki would take him out to sea.

Upon careful consideration, Li Huowang felt that Xinming would not break his promise.

"Swamp Monster, go!"

As Li Huowang spoke, he sent his giant swamp monster into battle.

When Ji Xiangang saw Li Huowang's Swampert emerge from its Poké Ball, he was instantly stunned.

Ji Xian was clearly surprised by Li Huowang's level 90 Swampert.

After all, there aren't many Pokémon trainers who can train their Pokémon to the Champion level.

He Jixian only needed a level 87 Gyarados to sweep away many Gyarados.

Afterwards, Ji Xian regained his composure.

Because his Gyarados's Flying-type is super effective against Swampert's Ground-type.

Although Swampert and Gyarados are three levels apart, Yoshinobu's Gyarados learned a Normal-type move, Protect, through a TM.

If Gyarados can withstand Swampert's first attack, its chances of winning will be much higher.

···Requesting flowers·········

This is precisely where Ji Xian's arrogance lies.

Once the two sides officially entered the battle, Yoshino shouted at his Gyarados, "Gyarados, use Protect!"

As soon as Ji Xian finished speaking, the Gyarados that was hovering in mid-air stopped, placed its hands in front of it, and a glass-like phantom appeared.

After the phantom disappeared, Li Huowang's Swampert attacked Gyarados.

However, Li Huowang was more patient this time.

Now that Gyarados has successfully used Protect, its subsequent regular attacks will be useless against it.

.............

Therefore, Li Huowang had his Swampert use an Earthquake skill in the first round.

Ground-type Earthquake moves obviously won't do any damage to Flying-type Pokémon.

Li Huowang was well aware of this; his purpose in doing so was to mock Yoshinobu, the head of the Nose Dojo.

"How dare you mock me?"

Ji Xian was also somewhat angry at Li Huowang's provocation.

"Why not?"

Li Huowang spread his hands, "Your Gyarados used Protect first, so I can't just randomly use any move, right? Besides, no matter how you look at it, Earthquake is the most cost-effective move."

Upon hearing Li Huowang's words, Ji Xian was speechless.

He always felt that the boy named Li Huowang standing opposite him was a bit of a scoundrel.

Ji Xian vaguely sensed that something was amiss, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.

"Gyarados, use Hurricane right now!"

Upon hearing this, Gyarados opened its mouth and unleashed a violent whirlwind.

164. Against a Champion-level Floating Weasel King of the same rank, the Frozen Fang attack is exceptionally effective.
