Chapter 33: The Decisive Battle of Ah Su (Part II)
Ah Su slowly stroked his Pokéball, and at the same time, he was also looking at the other party.
After a few battles, Ah Su has realized that this Pokémon trainer named Xiaoxuan is not simple.
Ah Su took over the job of Gym Trainer from his father a few years ago, and he has already met many trainers, and it is inevitable that he will divide the challengers he encounters into different ranks.
The lowest level is beginners, who usually come to the gym to challenge themselves as soon as they get their first Pokémon. For these challengers, Azov's attitude is one of patience and letting go.
As a gym trainer, Ah Su can't dampen the confidence of these challengers, so he can only give them some setbacks to make their combat level as high as possible, and then encourage them to challenge again, until Ah Su feels that they can leave here for a trip, and then give them the badge.
Ah Su felt like he was an enlightenment teacher.
Those who are better than beginners are those who are proficient. Just like Ash, who just got the badge, is one of the skilled ones.
These trainers usually go through a journey, or have received a good education in the family, and then come to the gym to challenge themselves and improve their strength. For them, Ah Su is more demanding, and Ah Su hopes to see the shining points in them.
Just like the previous battle with Ash, Ash first sent out chrysanthemum leaves, which are unfavorable and not strong, which is a beginner's practice, but his Pikachu and Charizard are obviously of a high level, and they have rich combat experience, which shows that Ash still belongs to the level of a skilled person.
But even so, Ah Su still had no intention of handing over the badge to him, he was still waiting for that shining point, so the eagle injured Charizard's wings, putting Ash at a disadvantage, at this time, he saw Ash's kind of not panicking, not giving up, and his wit when he was in a difficult situation, this is what he wants to see.
Compared to Ash, Xiao Xuan's performance is a little better, when he taunts Sun Seed, Xiao Han seems calm and composed, and she is very calm when giving orders, and her judgment of the situation is also very clear, in Ah Su's opinion, Xiao Xuan is a qualified skilled.
However, what puzzled Ah Su was that some of Xiao Xuan's actions were like beginners challenging the gym for the first time.
Xiao Xuan made two obvious mistakes:
First, when she released the Pokémon, she didn't put the Pokémon in the field.
Theoretically, Pokéball will automatically place the Pokémon in the ball three meters in front of it, so experienced trainers are very sensitive to the distance of three meters, and it is impossible for them to put Pokémon outside the field;
Second, she was looking ahead the whole time and didn't look at the referee.
Normally, the referee will directly announce in a loud voice whether a Pokémon is incapacitated and does not require any other attention, but in reality, in order not to disturb the battle between trainers, the referee will use gestures to indicate some details.
For example, whether the battlefield is normal, whether the match has reached the time limit, whether the game should be suspended, etc., usually experienced trainers will subconsciously look at the referee when they encounter problems, and this is also recorded in the trainer's manual.
Obviously, Xiaoxuan doesn't have this experience, she is more like a beginner.
But on the contrary, her Sun-Facing Seed skills are well matched, and her Geng Ghost strength is not weak, which makes her more like an elite.
The elite is a Pokémon trainer who is very strong and experienced and can compete with Azol.
There are very few trainers like this, and such opponents are hard to come by for Azov. Only by fighting such an opponent can Ah Su show his true skills and have that feeling of real fighting.
Obviously, Ah Su is very interested in Xiao Xuan, and he wants to know if Xiao Xuan is an elite level trainer.
He stroked the Pokéball for a while before looking at Xiao Xuan again and taking out the Pokéball:
"Come out, Armored Bird!"
Armor birds?
Da Duck looked at the big bird with wings covered in steel and suddenly appeared, and his heart moved slightly.
At this time, Ash also took out his illustrated book and aimed it at the armored bird.
"Armor Bird, Steel Attribute Pokémon. The stiff wings seem to be heavy, but because the feathers are hollow inside, they are still able to soar lightly and freely in the sky. ”
Da Duck looked at the armored bird and analyzed the attributes of both sides.
The armor bird is a steel system plus a flight system, and the Geng ghost is a ghost type plus a poison system, judging from the skills of the Geng ghost, the shadow ball can cause normal damage, and 100,000 volts can also hit double damage, and the Geng ghost should be very advantageous.
However, the Pokémon that can keep Ah Su until the end will definitely not be general, and the key after that will depend on how strong the armor bird is.
After Ah Su released the armor bird, the whole person was in a lot of energy, and he said to Xiao Xuan:
"Come on, let me see your true strength."
Xiao Xuan nodded, and then ordered Geng Ghost:
"Geng, use the Shadow Ball!"
Hearing Xiao Xuan's words, Geng Ghost immediately condensed the shadow ball that had given Da Da Duck an incomparable headache, and its trajectory flickered left and right, slowly flying towards the armored bird.
Seeing Geng's shadow ball, Ah Su showed a hint of a smile, and then ordered:
"Armored bird, knock it down with steel wings."
Hearing this, the armor bird was directly dyed with a layer of white light on its right wing, it saw the position of the shadow ball, took a step forward, and directly waved the steel wing to cut the shadow ball into two pieces, and the shadow ball immediately exploded, but the damage to the armor bird was not great.
Asu smiled and said:
"This shadow ball has a lot of ideas, but it's not very powerful."
Xiao Xuan commanded again:
"Geng, use a straight line to shadow the ball."
Xiao Xuan's idea is very good, she hopes to consume the other party through the shadow ball and finally win, however, Ah Su will not give her another chance.
Ah Su's eyes became serious, and he shouted:
"Armored Bird, use a flash of lightning on the Geng, followed by Steel Wings."
"A flash of lightning?"
Xiao Xuan paused for a moment, she knew very well that the flash of electricity in the general system had no effect on Geng Ghost, and she couldn't figure out Ah Su's intentions.
On the battlefield, Geng Ghost quickly released the shadow ball, but it was dodged by the Armor Bird's electric light, and the Armor Bird slowly shrank into the distance between the two by constantly flashing the lightning, and finally hit the Geng Ghost, and drilled through its body.
"It's now!" Asu shouted.
I saw that the armor bird had just passed through Geng Ghost's body, and its wings took on a layer of white light, and its wings became as sharp as sharp knives, and it slashed directly at Geng Ghost, and at this time, Geng Ghost didn't have time to react at all, its body was scratched by steel wings, and it fell to the ground.
Xiao Xuan hurriedly shouted:
"Geng, prepare 100,000 volts."
Geng Ghost understood what Xiao Xuan meant, it condensed 100,000 volts, but did not plan to release it, but was ready to give it a counterattack when the armored bird approached.
However, the speed of the armor bird was beyond the imagination of Xiao Xuan and Geng Ghost.
"Armored Bird, keep using the Steel Wings!"
The armor bird that received the order directly used a flash of lightning in the air, and its speed was so fast that it left only phantoms, so that Geng Ghost could not aim, seeing that the armor bird was about to repeat the old trick, Xiao Xuan calmly ordered:
"Geng, use 100,000 volts behind you."
Sure enough, at the moment when Geng Ghost had just turned around, the steel wings of the armor bird had already attacked, and without any hesitation, Geng Ghost directly released 100,000 volts, and finally both sides were injured at the same time and fell from the sky.
However, before Xiao Xuan could see the situation clearly, Ah Su preemptively ordered:
"Armored Bird, use Steel Wings!"
I saw that the armored bird was scarred, but it was still agile, and it looked at the seriously injured Geng ghost, and without hesitation, it used a flash of electric light, appearing behind the opponent, and then a steel wing.
Xiao Xuan knew that Geng Ghost would definitely not be able to withstand this blow, so she hurriedly shouted:
"Geng Ghost, use the same fate!"
Hearing Xiao Xuan's order, Geng Ghost's body quickly turned gray, and Ah Su heard Xiao Xuan's voice and shouted at the same time:
"Armored Bird, get out of it."
The armor bird reacted very quickly, and the steel wing was simply retracted by it, and then quickly flew high into the air.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered:
"Geng Ghost, always maintain the same fate."
Hearing Xiao Xuan's words, Ah Su glanced at her and showed a mysterious smile.
He knew Xiao Xuan's thoughts very well, this game was three against three, he only had one Pokémon left, but the other party still had two.
In this way, even if the armor bird defeats the opponent, it will be affected by the same fate status and fall into a near-death state, so that no matter what, the opponent wins.
However, he is the owner of the Gym, is there really no way to take such a situation?
"Armored birds, use high-speed movement."
Ah Su calmly ordered, and then observed Xiao Xuan's expression.
I saw that Xiao Xuan didn't know anything about Ah Su's intentions, and reason told her that she had won this battle, and the gym trainer would not deliberately delay the game, but she still didn't understand the other party's intentions, she could only watch the armor bird on the opposite side get faster and faster, and could only wait quietly for the other party to make a move.
Finally, after the armor bird consumed its physical energy and gained an acceleration, Aso commanded:
"Armor Bird, use Blow Fly!"
I saw a gust of wind blowing, and then Geng Ghost, who had been using the same fate state, was sent back to the Pokéball and replaced by a blank Ba Da Butterfly.
Then, without waiting for Xiaoxuan to give an order, Ah Su shouted:
"Armor Bird, show your fastest speed, use the Brave Bird!"
Immediately after, the body of the armored bird burst into blue light, it fell rapidly from the sky, its body parallel to the ground, flying low at a very high speed, it was like a blue lightning, rushing towards the big butterfly.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Xuan hurriedly shouted:
"Ba Da Butterfly, get out of the way......"
However, before she could finish her words, she saw that the armored bird had turned into a phantom and knocked the big butterfly away at an incredible speed, and the big butterfly fainted before she could make any reaction.
There was a sudden silence all around, and everyone was stunned, only the armor bird was hit by the reaction force and flew back stiffly, at this time, the armor bird instigated its wings a few times, counteracting the reaction, and then fell smoothly to the ground, arranging its feathers with its beak.
Even the referee was shocked by this scene, and it took him a second before he reacted and announced the verdict in time:
"Ba Da Butterfly loses the ability to fight."
Xiao Xuan, who heard the voice, was stunned there for a few seconds, and then silently withdrew the big butterfly.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the stands was instantly quiet, Xiao Zhi and Xiao Xia were stunned, they opened their mouths wide, and they didn't know what to say; And Xiao Han suddenly quieted down, she became speechless, just looking at her sister in a daze.
At this time, the only one who was still awake was Xiao Gang, but Xiao Gang at this time was completely different from usual. He was looking at Ah Su with his eyes open, and his eyes were embarrassed!
After a while, he narrowed his eyes again and calmly analyzed:
"This armor bird's skills are very comprehensive, and there is simply no weakness."
"First of all, in the face of Geng Ghost's state of the same fate, the armor bird used to blow away, breaking the deadlock at that time, and at the same time, due to the previous high-speed movement, the speed of the armor bird was already very fast, so that it directly skipped the preparation process of the brave bird, so that the unprepared Ba Da Butterfly had no chance to dodge, and instantly leveled the situation."
"The most wonderful thing is that after the armor bird was reacted to by the brave bird skill, it stretched its wings in time to alleviate the counter-injury it should have suffered, which is very rare."
"After using the Brave Bird, the Pokémon would have been in a state of stiffness, but this armor bird was able to stretch its body and reduce damage, which must have been tried and practiced many times."
Da Duck deeply agrees with this, although the brave bird is indeed very powerful as a great trick of the flying system, but its negative effect is also very serious, it will be affected by the corresponding counter-damage, and the counter-damage is one-third of the damage caused!
The Armored Bird was originally injured in the battle with Geng Ghost, and used the Brave Bird, so it stands to reason that it should be counter-injured by one-third of the physical strength of the Ba Da Butterfly, and directly lose its combat ability. However, due to its damage reduction skills, it takes very little backlash, which is why it can continue to fight.
However, in this way, Xiaoxuan fell into passivity.
According to the rules of the Gym Tournament, the challenger must defeat the three Pokémon of the Gym Owner and survive the Pokémon of his own team to be considered successful in the challenge. However, if both Gengh and Armored Bird lose the ability to fight, it can only be considered a draw in the end, that is, Gengh cannot win by using the same fate.
However, Da Ya thinks that even if Xiao Xuan does not succeed in the challenge, her strength is enough, and Ah Su should give her a badge, but the question is, does Xiao Xuan know the rules?
Seeing that Ba Da Butterfly was directly seconded, Xiao Xuan was indeed shocked.
However, she still persisted, and she still didn't show it, because reason told her that the gym competition was still going on.
However, as Da Duck guessed, Xiao Xuan didn't know the rules of the Gym Tournament that she didn't know what situation she was in, and now she had a lot of choices, and if she made a wrong choice, she would miss the badge, and her heart was suffering.
Finally, she made a decision, she firmly took out the Pokéball and sent out the Geng.
At the moment when Geng Ghost appeared, Ah Su and Xiao Xuan's voices sounded at the same time:
"Brave Bird!"
"Shadow Ball!"
In order to fight for fighters, both sides used the simplest orders, in order to seize the lead.
Then Da Duck saw that the speed of the Armored Bird's Brave Bird was very fast, like a blue lightning, and instantly hit Geng Ghost, and at this time, Geng Ghost's shadow ball had just condensed half, and then it was knocked away by Yong Bird and fainted to the ground.
However, after the attack, the armored bird did not have the strength to stretch its wings anymore, and it was injured by the brave bird and fainted.
"The Armored Bird and the Geng Ghost lost their ability to fight at the same time, so the two sides were tied, and the challenger failed to challenge."
Hearing the referee's words, Xiao Xuan was stunned for more than ten seconds before she showed a wry smile and said to Geng Ghost:
"Did we lose......"
Xiao Xuan took back the Geng ghost, and then made up her mind, she straightened her hair, and said firmly to Ah Su:
"I'll try it again!"
However, Ah Su decisively rejected her, and he smiled and said:
"You can't challenge me anymore, because the Flying Wing Badge already belongs to you."
