My electronic Pokémon came true?

"What a wonderful Pokémon."

Songye sighed.

"Even though he looks very weak, he can actually burst out with such amazing strength, just like you, Nan Xian. It's really hard to figure out."

Zhulan also agreed with this statement.

The more experienced the trainer is, the more he can judge various information from the external performance of Pokémon.

The system determined that Erguiyan was level 18. Although the strength of everyone present was not necessarily calculated based on their level, the overall results were similar.

The simple and straightforward use of moves still lacks the physical fitness that has been trained and polished...

Both Ran and Matsuba can see that Uruk-O still has a lot of room for improvement, and it indeed fits the characteristics of a rookie Pokémon.

Not only Erguiliang, but Nanxian also performed the same way.

Although she grasped the timing very accurately and had good momentum, the girl was already showing signs of fatigue.

To seize the right moment in a battle where the situation is changing rapidly requires a huge mental drain. If the battle line is extended any further, Nan Xian might not be able to hold on.

"Master Songye, I have a suggestion."

Zhulan suddenly spoke.

However, before Zhulan could finish her words, Songye smiled and shook his head.

"I understand what you mean. In fact, I also want to make some adjustments to the rules."

Songye looked towards Nanxian.

"Nanxian, your Pokémon is only Eruption, right?"

Matsuba, who had just heard of the name of Uzumaki, had already recognized this Pokémon and called its name fluently.

Seeing the girl nod silently, Songye spoke again.

"The original three Pokémon rules will be changed. I will only send out one more Pokémon."

Matsuba took out a Poké Ball.

"I recognize you. No matter what the outcome of the battle is, I will give you the Phantom Badge."

"——In this final round of battle, please satisfy my curiosity!"

Even though he's a trainer who's proficient in the ghost system, he still shows passion when it's necessary during a battle.

When Nan Xian saw Songye's eyes, he felt a sigh in his heart.

"no problem!"

It is precisely because Songye gave enough pressure that Nanxian was able to truly experience what a real trainer battle is.

This kind of battle truly fits Nan Xian’s imagination of a trainer.

She realized that it was because she was afraid of such high pressure in the past that she chose to step back and become a Poké Ball craftsman.

At the moment, I am still not mature enough and can only say that I have taken a step forward.

But in the pursuit of victory, Nan Xian is no longer afraid of challenges, and she believes that the same is true for Erguiliang.

“I also want to give it my all.”

There seemed to be fire in the girl's eyes.

Even Zhulan, who was sitting in the referee's seat, was infected by the burning enthusiasm and smiled as well.

"Then please ask Gym Leader Matsuba to send out the last Pokémon."

"For the last Pokémon, I will send out my partner."

Without letting Nan Xian wait long, Songye threw the Poké Ball in his hand.

"Come out, Gengar!"

A dark purple, short and fat ghost Pokémon nearly as tall as a human landed on the field.

Most ghost Pokémon posed a life threat to humans in ancient times, and this fear still influences cultural works today.

Whether it’s movies, TV series or novels, as long as there are horror elements, there are almost always ghost-type Pokémon.

Among the ghost Pokémon, Gengar is the most classic image.

Its blood-red eyes and a mouth with a strange smile occupied most of its body, and there were spikes protruding from its back, making it look extremely dangerous.

"Geng Geng~"

Nan Xian shuddered unconsciously when being stared at by Gengar.

Although we know that Matsuba's Gengar will not threaten human lives, the seemingly weird smile may actually just be a greeting.

But Nan Xian had indeed never seen many ghost-type Pokémon in real life, and the existence of Gengar was too stimulating for people who encountered it for the first time.

"Boni-ao--"

On the other hand, Uruk-York was not affected by Gengar.

The simple-minded little devil became angry when he saw Nan Xian being "threatened" by Gengar, and raised his thorn vine stick on his own to make a real threat.

However, when Gengar saw the threat posed by Eruption, he found it somewhat cute and smiled even more unscrupulously.

"Geng geng geng~"

Before the fight officially started, tension was already building between the two Pokémon.

Zhulan saw the interaction on the field and everyone was ready, so she didn't waste any time.

"The battle begins!"

Songye spoke immediately.

"Infuriating..."

The Snow Fairy’s sacrifice was not in vain.

After getting over the initial shock, Songye had already analyzed why the Snow Fairy suddenly couldn't withstand the attack of the Erguiyan.

After wearing the Foundation Stone Mask, Eruption generates countless pieces of gravel when using the Thorn Vine Staff. From this, Matsuba concluded that Eruption's originally grass-type moves had been transformed into rock-type ones.

He had never seen a similar situation, but in a battle between trainers, one should observe carefully and attack boldly.

If the attributes of that unseen move would change, the transformed Eruption might also become a rock attribute during the transformation.

The Rock Type is restrained by the Fighting Type, and Matsuba doesn't want to wait any longer, so he immediately prepares to let Gengar release the only Fighting Type move that it is good at and also the most powerful.

120-power Qi bomb!

However, while Songye was speaking, Nanxian was also giving orders.

"Evil Ghost, it's too crystallized!"

The moment they heard the girl's words, Songye and Zhulan suddenly widened their eyes and looked at Erguiyan with incredible eyes.

Too crystallized...

They both saw the dazzling gem-like light.

[The memories of making masks with you will become the power of Eruption! ]

Nan Xian also looked at the shining light of Taijing.

But unlike the pine leaf bamboo orchid, there was only tenderness in the girl's eyes.

The crystallization of Uruk-O is different from that of other Pokémon in that it uses memories to activate the mask's ability.

Without the corresponding memories, it cannot use its power.

And when Erguilang actively touched those memories, the mask underwent changes that would impress even Nan Xian, who had seen it once before.

——So beautiful.

[Evil Spirit crystallizes the Foundation Stone Mask! 】

Brilliant gemstone fragments and crystals gushed out, creating a storm that covered the evil sky.

Nan Xian saw the foundation stone mask being wrapped in light and expanding. This time she actually saw with her own eyes the entire process of the Erguiyan Tai crystallization.

The mask worn on Eruption's face emitted a gem-like glow and appeared in front of it. The Tai Crystal glow condensed and changed, showing a strange appearance. Finally, the gorgeous and beautiful Tai Crystal mask floated in the air.

"Gah~!"

[The characteristic of the Evil Spirit changes to the Shining Face (Foundational Stone Mask)! 】

[Glowing Face (Foundation Stone Mask): Reflect the memories in your heart, making the Foundation Stone Mask glow. Each time you appear, your defense increases by 1 level.]

Chapter 4: Bird, Prediction, Win! (K)

After completing the crystallization, Erguiyan appeared on the battlefield in a form that was very different from before.

Apart from the surprise that was surging in his heart, Songye looked at Erguiyan and subconsciously thought about how to deal with it.

What is the effect of Tai Crystallization?

Not everyone is as familiar with the special phenomena in each region as Nan Xian.

Although the Padia Alliance has released relevant information about Taicrystallization, other regions except the Padia region do not have Taicrystallization energy. Even if Pokémon are forced to Taicrystallize, the resources consumed are relatively not worth the cost.

Compared to mega evolutions that can switch forms freely, Alola's Z-Moves, Galar's Gigantamax, and Padia's Tai Crystal Orbs, the latter three are subject to too many restrictions. Trainers from outside the region basically do not consider them, and common sense in battles does not take the corresponding parts into consideration.

So when he suddenly saw Nan Xian making Erguiliang crystallize, Songye felt not only surprised but also had a headache.

This is the situation that trainers fear the most in a battle, where the opponent suddenly displays completely incomprehensible means. Since becoming a gym trainer, Matsuba has not experienced similar emotions for a long time.

At this moment, Matsuba, who was relived the feeling as a rookie trainer, twitched his lips slightly and looked at Takeran unconsciously.

Miss Zhulan, aren’t you a scholar?

Come and explain this situation!

But Zhulan was also confused.

Her research direction is mythology and legends, and crystallization is not within her scope of knowledge at all.

However, although she didn't understand Tai Jinghua, Zhulan actually had a certain degree of analysis about Erguiliang in her heart.

Zhulan, who knew enough about the folk legends of Kitakami Township, noticed when she first met Nanxian that the mask worn on the face of the Pokémon next to the girl was very similar to the evil ghost mask in the Kitakami Township Mask Festival.

The moment when it was completely confirmed that there was a connection between the two was when Eruption took out the Foundation Stone Mask just now.

The foundation stone mask worn by Erguiyan is 99% similar to the foundation stone mask in the Kitakami Center exhibition, not to mention that Nanxian actually called it the "foundation stone mask".

If Zhulan had not noticed that the mask had no signs of being old, she would probably have thought that Nanxian had stolen the foundation stone mask from Beishang Township.

A comprehensive analysis of the various strange features of the Evil Ghost, although it makes Zhulan feel incredible, but from the conclusion, it is very likely the evil ghost in the legend of Kitakami Township.

Why did the evil ghost from Beishang Township appear next to Nanxian?

Is Erguiyan, who is extremely cruel in legends but quite gentle in reality, an evil ghost?

A lot of questions remain to be answered.

But Zhulan changed her mind and thought that she would definitely get the answer from Nan Xian after the battle. Instead of worrying about it, she might as well watch how Songye dealt with Erguiyan.

So in the face of Matsuba's accusing eyes, the Sinnoh Champion simply smiled elegantly, with no intention of stopping the fight.

——There is such a black whistle!

Songye was speechless.

At that moment, he finally remembered that Tai Crystallization was a special ability that only elite trainers in the Padia region could master.

If you can master Tai Crystallization, you can't be called a rookie trainer, right?

My thoughts race through my mind, but in reality it only takes a dozen seconds.

Nan Xian didn't care what Song Ye on the opposite side was thinking, he had already challenged her with half his full strength, so she had no room to worry.

"Evil spirit, thorn vine stick!"

One trick can be eaten all over the world.

The more Nan Xian used the thorn vine stick, the more he could feel the power of this move.
