Chapter 437: An Opponent Who Came to the Door
After the stinger jellyfish was defeated, the old man shook his head helplessly.
This is his strongest Pokémon, but he didn't expect it to be able to cause too much trouble to Xia You, so it will be difficult to do next......
He also deliberately checked Xia You's lineup before the game, and knew that Xia You had an even more powerful tyrannosaurus, but now even the Blastoise can't be defeated, and it seems that his cup road should end here.
He is really a little unwilling, after all, he is old, and he doesn't know if he can participate in the next Cup, this time he finally broke into the round of 16, which is already his best result in several times.
But the gap in strength really made him feel desperate, and this sense of powerlessness also made him really feel that Xia You is indeed different from other players, he is really strong and strong!
Really, why would a young man with this kind of strength participate in this kind of competition?
Sighing softly, at the urging of the referee, he released the second Pokémon.
When the blue light flashed, a Pokémon like an octopus appeared in front of Xia You.
This is an octopus bucket, a pure water attribute Pokémon, its appearance is no different from the octopus on the earth, the whole body is red, and there are two suction cups on each tentacle, which looks slippery and greasy.
They generally inhabit rocks or caves on the bottom of the sea, have the habit of burrowing, like to stay in caves or jars, and sometimes suddenly spew ink to avoid strong enemies or wait for opportunities to sneak attack.
It doesn't look like it looks soft and creepy, but it is different from its appearance, it has a hard head, and it will wrap its tentacles around its prey so that it cannot escape, but another strong collision will give the final blow after the prey has completely lost its ability to resist.
Faced with the old man's second Pokémon, Xia You neither needed nor had the will to replace the Blastoise, but sent it to continue the fight.
With the size of the Octopus Bucket, its tentacles simply can't wrap around the Blastoise's massive body, so it can't use this advantage at all.
But fortunately, it also has a few ice moves, so that when it faces the Blastoise, it is not completely powerless to fight back.
When the battle began, Octopus Barrel directly used a laser beam in an attempt to restrain the Blastoise from a long distance.
But in the face of such an attack, the blastoise can easily avoid it by jumping directly from the stone pillar into the water, and the power of the octopus barrel is not enough to freeze the huge battle ground, and there is nothing to do with it.
The Aurora Beam only caused a freeze on the surface of the water, only freezing the spray of the blastoise into the water into ice crystals, but it did not hit the target.
Especially when the blastoise approaches from the water, the octopus bucket can't even perform ice moves.
In desperation, the old man could only let the octopus bucket also burrow into the water, trying to keep swimming in the water, widening the distance, and also looking for the flaws of the blastoise by the way.
[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]
Under the influence of the vortex thrust, all the ink was pushed farther away and successfully diluted!
The polluted water surface could not be restored to its original state in a short time, but it was still much clearer, and without the protection of ink, the octopus bucket could no longer hide its shape!
Seeing this, the old man could only make a last stand, and ordered the octopus bucket to wrap the blastoise tightly with its tentacles, but the blastoise was very powerful, and he relied on his heavy body to break free in just a few strokes.
At this time, Xia You also seized the opportunity of the two Pokémon to be close to each other, and ordered the Blastoise to perform several moves in a row, and finally knocked down the octopus bucket with a rocket mallet.
The referee immediately announced the result of the match.
The audience saw that Xia You easily defeated the opponent's two Pokémon with the strength of Blastoise alone, and they all erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
So far, whether it is popularity, strength, or handsome appearance, he has become a well-deserved seed player in the hearts of the audience, and more people will pay attention to him every day, looking forward to him winning the championship!
Waving to the audience, Xia You returned to the lounge.
Seeing him come back, Ash and Xiaoxia got up to congratulate one after another, but compared to Xiaoxia's heartfelt happiness, Ash's expression was a little lonely.
His peers and admired opponents all successfully advanced, only he was eliminated, how could he calm down.
Fortunately, he is the kind of character who is very aggressive, but after being sad for a while, he quickly put his troubles behind him, and even before Xia You finished the game, he had returned to normal.
Xia You left here with the two of them to join up with Lijia and them.
Since he and Xiaoxia successfully advanced to the top 8, today's game is not over, in the afternoon, the remaining eight people need to play two more games to determine the final two finalists.
And the chance of Xia You and Xiaoxia fighting has undoubtedly increased greatly.
In terms of time, the schedule is really tight, but there is really no way to do it, after all, the Vortex Islands Cup is only a local event, and if the time drags on too long and wastes too much time, it is easy to miss out on the trainers who are traveling around and preparing for the Silver Tournament.
And once there are no elite trainers to participate, only some of the old and weak on the island are left, I am afraid that even if the number of participants remains the same, the average strength of the players will be weakened a lot, even if the short man chooses the big one and chooses a brave man of the sea, there will be no prestige at all, and it will even make the reputation of the cup even more unbearable.
Because there were only a dozen players left, the round of 16 matches were all over in just two or three hours.
When a few people had not finished lunch in the restaurant, the grouping of the top 8 had already been freshly released.
But before Xia You and Xiaoxia could see who their opponent was, a young and beautiful woman had already walked towards them.
The woman was about twenty-four or fifteen years old, with a face covered in makeup, long red hair combed into a slanted ponytail, two large bead-like earrings, a red T-shirt and a long pink dress.
She came to the two of them, first looked Xia You up and down curiously for a long time, and then set her eyes on Xiaoxia again.
"You're Xiaoxia, right?"
Xiaoxia looked up at her, dazed, obviously not knowing this woman.
"That's right, it's me, who are you?"
As soon as Xiaoxia's voice fell, and before the woman could answer, Xiao Gang on the side jumped up instantly and walked quickly to the woman as if he had been shot by the god of love.
"I know! I know!" Xiao Gang's eyes seemed to turn into two red hearts, and he said excitedly, "You are the beautiful lady who won all the previous competitions easily!"
Xiao Gang can like every beautiful lady he meets, and keep in mind their characteristics, I have to say, this is a very powerful talent.
The woman looked at Xiao Gang in surprise: "Oh? You know me?"
"Of course!" Xiao Gangyi grabbed the woman's hand and knelt on one knee, like a knight proposing marriage.
I've seen all of your battles except for your buddies' matches! After all, a beautiful lady like you shines so brightly everywhere!"
The woman obviously couldn't stand Xiao Gang's sudden enthusiasm, she broke free of Xiao Gang's hands, took a big step back, and cautiously stared at the small-eyed man in front of her.
Seeing Xiao Gang's appearance, Xiao Xia couldn't help but raise her fist, hit him on the head hard, and dragged him back without saying anything.
"Sorry, please leave this guy alone, his head is not normal!"
On the side, Xia You, Lijia and Xiaozhi glanced at each other, and they all showed a wry smile.
For them, and even for Lijia, who is not very familiar with Xiao Gang, Xiao Gang is normal for this, and even sometimes takes notes! If there is a day when he doesn't pester a beautiful woman like ***, it will be an abnormal performance!
Ignoring the man, the woman looked at Xiaoxia again.
"Introduce yourself, my name is Takami, and I'm your next opponent!"
The next match?
Xiaoxia was stunned, she didn't expect her opponent to come to the door, and the look on her face immediately became serious.
But apparently Gao Mei didn't come with hostility, she smiled at Xiao Xia and said, "I also watched your game before, you and your Pokémon cooperate tacitly, and your intuition during the battle is also perfect, I can see that you are indeed a powerful water type Pokémon trainer, especially your Da Duck, it is really interesting, it left a deep impression on me!"
Hearing that Gao Mei had such an evaluation of her, Xiaoxia's expression immediately softened.
"Thank you for the compliment!"
Gao Mei stretched out her hand and shook it with Xiaoxia with a smile.
"I'm really looking forward to playing against you, so let's all put on our best performances and keep up the good work!"
And after saying this, she turned her gaze to Xia You again, her eyes burning.
