Chapter 28: The Mysterious Poker Man
The man in front of him in a poker pattern suit pulls a random Pokéball from his pocket. The Pokéball has a small ace of hearts depicted on it.
"Come on, my ace of hearts, let's try the strength of our opponents." Which Pokéball came out of it was a red Pokémon. The whole body has a metallic sheen, and the two huge pincers make it impossible for Xiao Lu to tell whether it is a lobster or a praying mantis.
"That's the giant pincer mantis, the evolution of the flying mantis, very rare. So far, no one has made public how it evolved. Be careful. Looking at the giant pincer mantis in front of him, Xiao Wu cautiously reminded Xiao Li.
"Ah, it looks like I still need to read more books. Except for the super Pokémon, the others are still a little indistinguishable. Listening to Xiao Wu's size, Xiao Ritsu scratched his head with a wry smile.
But soon Xiao Lu calmed down. Seeing that the Pokémon that the guy in front of him took out was very strong, Xiao Ritsu still cheered up and released his strongest Pokémon so far, Yuungira.
"Yongjira? Super attacks don't work against it, and the giant pincer mantis uses high-speed movement to get close and then bullet punches! The man in front of Yongjira, who saw Xiao Ritsu's release, chuckled and commanded the giant pincer mantis to attack.
The solid shell of the giant pincer mantis's body itself turned into a steel-like material when it evolved. But at this time, the giant pincer mantis did not have the slightest effect. At this time, the giant pincer mantis moved on the battlefield like a red light and shadow. In an instant, he was in front of Yunjira and threw a punch that was as fast as a bullet.
Without any sound, the giant pincer mantis was empty. Even though he has evolved into Yunjira, the instinct of using teleportation in times of crisis is still imprinted in the depths of Yunjira's consciousness.
"Hahaha~ Interesting, really interesting, it's rare to be able to react in time under the attack of my giant pincer mantis and successfully avoid it. Then one more bullet punch. ”
It seemed that he saw a scene that made him happy, and the man in front of him in a poker suit said with a very happy smile.
On the battlefield of this battle, the figure of the giant pincer mantis like a red light reappeared. It circled Yongjira in mid-air, and suddenly his smooth red figure suddenly jumped up and attacked Yongjira.
"Teleport, then use telekinesis to fight back!" Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Li's face did not change, and he used his mental power to give a command to Yongjira.
"Little brother, it's useless to communicate with Pokémon with mental power."
"What!"
The battle on the battlefield was fleeting, one second Yongjira used teleportation to get behind the Giant Pincer Mantis, and the next second it was knocked to the ground by the Giant Pincer Mantis that suddenly turned in midair.
"What's going on! Here's how it works! Looking at this scene on the battlefield, Xiao Wu next to him was also stunned. He didn't understand how the giant pincer mantis managed to adjust its direction in mid-air.
"Is it true that the wings behind the giant pincer mantis are ornaments? Although his body is too heavy to fly, turning in the air is just a simple action after rigorous training. ”
Looking at the shocked looks on the faces of the two, the man seemed to be a little puzzled, and he couldn't understand why the two couldn't even see this.
"Yongjira bends the spoon and uses telekinesis to attack." Once again, the order is given through mental power. Yunjira quickly unleashed the powerful alpha wave in its body.
"That's right, such a powerful spiritual power. Worthy of the guy I chose to fight. This Yunjira has a lot of superpowers. Finally nodded and affirmed the Yongjira of Xiaolu. At the same time, the man in the poker costume seemed to see Xiao Yu's purpose, and once again issued a command to his Pokémon.
"The giant pincer mantis uses an iron wall."
The alpha wave, which is very powerful due to the use of a bending spoon, did not have the same effect as it did against Team Rocket. In Xiaolu's opinion, it may be because the will of this giant pincer mantis is very firm.
However, this powerful force can still have a certain effect on the giant pincer mantis. The powerful spiritual power release took control of the body of the giant pincer mantis, and slammed it headfirst to the ground.
If it were placed in a normal situation, the giant pincer mantis might have lost its combat ability, after all, the impact of the head can easily cause the Pokémon to fall into a coma. But the giant pincer mantis, which had used the iron wall in advance, easily took over this attack. And with his strong willpower, he got rid of Yongjira's mental control.
Sweat was dripping from Yongjira's forehead, and he had just forcibly used his mental power to manipulate the enemy's body to attack, which was very physically exhausting. But the result was somewhat unexpected.
"Take out some real skills, don't let me down, little brother." Looking at Yongjira on the other side, who seemed a little tired, the man in the poker suit smiled and continued to encourage.
"Yongjira uses spiritual power!"
Looking at the giant pincer mantis in front of him, Xiao Lu made a decision. You can't use phantom rays, and they don't do much in the face of the strong-willed giant pincer mantis illusion rays. It seems that against the opponent in front of him, he can only suppress it with all his strength and the strongest mental power.
Suddenly, the terrifying spiritual power erupted from Yongjira's body. Watch as this power slowly compresses into a point in Yongjira's hands. The man in the poker suit looked a little disdainful.
"It's powerful enough, but who's going to let you slowly accumulate this power in battle?"
Before the words fell, the giant pincer mantis of the man in the poker suit had rushed in front of Yongjira. The speed of the unreasonable punch was so fast that it was impossible to see with the naked eye. The huge force directly knocked Yunjira out and crashed into the rock formation, and the terrifying attack caused the rock formation behind Yunjira to crack. And Yunjira, who was hit by a powerful force, also fainted.
"Come back, Yunjira." Putting away Yongjira, looking at the giant pincer mantis in front of him, Xiao Lu thought about whether to use the newly adopted Hippopotamus or the young and weak Lalu Lasi next.
"So be it." Seeing that Xiao Lu wanted to take out another Pokéball ball, the man in front of him stopped it with a loud voice.
"What's wrong? I still have Pokémon to be able to continue fighting. Looking at the guy in front of him who made a noise to stop, Xiao Lu shouted loudly.
"Sorry, I didn't notice before the fight. You're still a newcomer, right? Looking at Xiao Lu in front of him, he recalled the unskilled skills of Yongjira in the battle just now and the skill combination that was basically Hu Lai, plus the shock that was revealed from time to time at that time. The man in the poker suit guessed.
"Yes, that's right. What's wrong? Looking at the words of the man in front of him, Xiao Lu's face was a little heavy, and he felt that the other party seemed to be despising him.
"You're already strong as a newcomer. Your Yongjira's mental power is not lost to any elite trainer. However, if you want to defeat me, this mental power is not enough, and the next time we meet, we will continue this battle. Hopefully, you'll be able to grow to the point where you can fight me. ”
After complimenting Yuri's Yongjira, the man left the rock formation with a joke.
"By the way, I have a Super Pokémon Trainer friend who is also traveling in the Kanto region this year, and his name is Kazuki. If you have the opportunity to meet him, you can learn more from him. ”
"A tree? I really hope to meet the same type of trainer. Listening to the words left by the man before leaving, Xiao Lu clenched his fists and felt very expectant.
