My electronic Pokémon came true?

His thoughts were wandering in his heart. Nan Xian took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Mudan, then spoke.

"It looks like it likes you very much."

"Eh……"

Peony looked disgusted.

"I don't want to like you this much, and it's so inexplicable..."

She hadn't figured out why Millerton was so close to her, but she was suddenly licked, so she was naturally not in a good mood.

Having said that, Mudan did not show any dislike for Millerton, and her mind was mostly confused.

"Anyway, let's go back to the hotel first."

After all, it was his own Pokémon, so Nan Xian comforted Mudan again.

"Then I'll help you get some dolls. Go back and wash up, and then we'll go have dinner."

"Really?! Thank you so much."

Mudan turned her attention back to reality. When she heard that Nan Xian was willing to help her carry the doll, her mood suddenly turned from gloomy to bright and she became happy.

"of course."

The white-haired girl smiled and nodded.

After this incident, although it was an accident, the relationship between them was brought closer.

Nan Xian held the Ibrahimovic family doll and returned to the hotel with Mudan. Then they found the nearest restaurant to have dinner and walked back.

……

"This Pokémon has some pretty amazing moves."

As soon as he stepped into the battle practice field, Nan Xian heard a chaotic conversation not far away.

Qinglu, who had just spoken, slapped the huge stone axe of the axe-splitting mantis beside him with his hand, and his tone was joyful.

"——Use this pair of rock axes to attack. While causing damage, you can also use rock energy to generate sharp rock fragments and lay invisible rocks!"

Qinglu had already thought of a name for this never-before-seen move in his mind, and called it Rock Axe!

In addition to attacking, you can also lay out invisible rocks, which is simply a powerful weapon in battle. As long as it is used properly, most opponents will be extremely troubled.

After hearing the analysis, the person Qingluo was talking to, Daigo and Takeran, nodded together.

"It's really awesome."

The small battle practice field now gathered three champions including the former champion Qinglu.

Trapped in the middle, the Axe Mantis looked honest and did whatever the people around it told it to do.

"Also, many of the moves I mastered in my previous Scyther form were inherited."

Green's interest was growing. Meeting a brand new Pokémon with great potential was something worth investing his energy in. For the past two days, he had been testing the abilities of Axemanthe.

Now, Qinglu has fully understood the current strength of the Axe Mantis. Seeing that the two champions who came to visit him also showed interest, he turned around.

"understand!"

Longgong observed the situation and took the initiative to issue orders without Qinglu's instructions.

"Axe Mantis, use Acrobatics!"

"Bah!"

Upon hearing the instructions, the Axe-Splitting Mantis also entered combat mode. It quickly raised its two stone axes, moved its body, and swung one stone axe upwards and the other downwards with a light posture.

shhhhh!

After two sounds of cutting through the air flow, the Axe-Splitting Mantis put down its stone axe.

"Hmm...it doesn't look like it's particularly powerful."

Daigo first focused on another direction.

"Because it lost its flying attribute after evolution, its power will indeed decrease without the bonus of this attribute. Judging from its appearance, its speed must have decreased a lot as well."

"It's very similar to the giant mantis."

Zhulan also started to analyze.

Everyone present were experienced trainers. Although Green was the only one who also served as a researcher specializing in Pokémon, everyone had some experience in Pokémon breeding and were not reluctant to share their views.

"It loses its high speed, but its attack is more ferocious. There is a trade-off, but there is a gain. With the convenience brought by the Stone Axe move, there is more room for maneuver than before!"

"Indeed, I think so too."

Qinglu concluded.

"Based on the current situation, the core of the Axe Mantis's ability lies in the new moves it gained after evolution. As long as this move is practiced to perfection, it will be able to perform well in most battles."

In just a few words, what he said was actually the experience summarized by Qinglu after several days of research. Ryugu was listening on the side, and his expression had returned to the confidence he had when he first came to Galar.

——How can you not be confident?

From the panic when Scyther suddenly evolved into Axe Mantis, to Green and Professor Oak rushing to Galar together, and after being instructed by Green, two more champions heard the news about Axe Mantis and came to visit today.

Qinglu's conclusion alone was enough to calm Ryugu's uneasy mood, and the praise and recognition given by Daigo and Takeran made Ryugu even more inflated.

"I will definitely not let Master Qinglu down!"

Within two days, even the master of Longgong started to call on him and established a relationship with him.

For some reason, Nan Xian had a sense of déjà vu. He had been silent since arriving at the battle practice field, but now he attracted the attention of Longgong again.

"Nan Xian, you're here just in time!"

A smile of success appeared on Longgong's face.

"My strength has greatly improved. Now is a good time to test it. You must also want to see the current strength of the Axe Mantis, right?"

"——Come and fight me, and let's see who wins!"

No, I don't want to watch it.

The girl complained silently in her heart.

This was not the first time that Nan Xian had seen a Pokémon like Axe Mantis. Compared to the Forest King he had encountered before, the Axe Mantis of Ryugu was still far inferior.

But after Ryugu opened his mouth and made the invitation, the other three trainers on the field showed expressions of interest on their faces.

Compared to Ryugu's Axe Mantis, the Pokémon that Nan Xian brought was no less mysterious. Moreover, after not seeing her for many days, they had no idea how much she had grown, and several people had quite a few doubts in their minds.

But unlike Qinglu and Zhulan, Daigo, who doesn't know Nanxian's other secrets yet, is more curious about how powerful Nanxian is.

Daigo's understanding of Nanxian is limited to the fact that she is a master Poké Ball craftsman, and that the Pokémon Eruption and Jirachi were only recently included in the Pokédex. As for the strength of these two Pokémon, he knows nothing about it.

It is precisely because we don’t know that we are curious.

Nan Xian was stared at by everyone, but he remained calm and nodded after a while.

"alright."

She suddenly remembered something else.

Although the strength of Ryugu's Axe Mantis is not very strong, it is indeed close to the Ucchusaurus in level, making it just the right opponent.

In addition, Erguiyan has just received a new training task recently. If we want Erguiyan to master the power of the well as soon as possible, more battles will be of great benefit.

Just like that, together with Professor Oak who rushed over after hearing the news, Nanxian and Ryugu stood at the two ends of the battlefield respectively.

"Axe Mantis!"

The Axe Mantis stood in front of Ryugu again.

From the provocative hostility when they first met, to the helplessness after being captured by poachers, the Axe Mantis has experienced countless battles since following Ryugu. But when facing Nanxian, it couldn't help but recall how it was knocked away by Erguilang not long ago.

"Bah!"

——This time, I won’t lose so easily!

The Axe-Splitting Mantis raised its rock axe, ready for battle.

Seeing this, Nan Xian just smiled slightly and took out the Youyou Ball.

"Bonnie!"

Accompanied by the light, Eruption fell onto the field and directly snatched away the attention that originally belonged to Axe Mantis.

The petite and cute looking Eccentric is actually a legendary evil spirit from Kitakami Township!

Among the four people watching the fight, except Daigo, the others knew part of the truth to a greater or lesser extent.

"Well mask."

"Boni, Boni!"

Following Nan Xian's instructions, Erguiluo put on the well mask on his face in an instant. The light flashed again, and after the light faded, Erguiluo's outer clothes had turned into water blue.

This is the ability of the Mask Pokémon.

Looking at Erguiyan, Zhulan couldn't help but narrow her eyes and her expression became more focused.

But Longgong, who was standing opposite Nanxian, suddenly felt worse.

"Damn it... Is it water attribute this time?!"

How could there be such a foul Pokémon!

No matter what kind of Pokémon is sent out, the opponent can make targeted attribute changes. Thinking of this, Ryugu felt indignant.

Fortunately, I am not completely powerless to resist.

Ever since losing to Nanxian last time, Ryugu has updated the Pokémon encyclopedia and learned some of the secrets of Uruk-chan.

By wearing different types of masks, Eruption can gain different powers and its attributes will change accordingly.

But no matter what attributes it obtains, the Eruption will have the grass attribute. Therefore, it will definitely be restrained by the insect attribute in any form other than the Fire Stove Mask.

As his mind raced, Long Gong had already thought of a plan and immediately waved his hand to give instructions.

"Crossing Axe Mantis, Cross Shears!"

No longer using Sword Dance.

Because he knew that Erguilang also mastered the sword dance technique, and in terms of attack power, the opponent's thorn vine stick was far superior to his own.

If you want to win against a strong opponent, you must learn how to maneuver.

——Look at me defeating you with my trainer’s superb skills!

Ryugu concentrated his mind, intending to capture all the changes in the battle.

At the same time, on the battlefield, the Axe Mantis had already raised his stone axe, took a step forward, and rushed towards the Evil Spirit with the sharp weapon.

"Attack?"

Judging from the speed alone, the Axe Mantis should be inferior to the Eruption, but Nan Xian was not in a hurry to give instructions. Instead, he looked at the Axe Mantis with his eyes that emitted a faint glow.

No one noticed the change in the girl's eyes, but it was obvious that Nan Xian did not give any orders. Just when Long Gong began to get confused, the Axe-Splitting Mantis had already approached the Erguilang and was about to chop down the Rock Axe.

"Two consecutive kicks!"

In a split second, Erguiyan finally took action.

First, take a small jump and then kick upwards!

Although Eruption does not have a fighting attribute, it has a talent for fighting skills that far exceeds that of ordinary Fighting-type Pokémon. Its movements are always extremely agile, and it can easily capture the opponent's flaws.

At this moment, the weakness of the Axe-Splitting Mantis was the center connection between the two stone axes when they were combined to form a cross shears.

Eruption's kick hit this spot precisely, causing the Axe Mantis to pause in its movement, but Eruption's attack was not over yet.

The double kick is a continuous attack move. Next, there should be another attack...

Several people watching the game began to think at the same time.

"The thorn stick!"

At this moment, Nan Xian's instructions came one after another.

——Why is it so frequent?
