Chapter 75
: Let her see our bond!
"Young Yoshi!"
With ground-type energy gathering beneath his feet, Larvitar unleashed a powerful stomp at the Fried Pig, which was less than five meters away from him, at twice the normal strength.
Rumble~
The battlefield roared, and a peculiar wave of energy surged forward, accompanied by the earth's movement.
"Eat it, then use the charged flame attack to accelerate and avoid the rockfall."
"Stop making noise!"
Bear~
Flames erupted from the nostrils of the fried pig, engulfing its entire body.
The force of the stomp swept over at that moment, and the double super-effectiveness combined with the powerful STAB attack sent Fried Pig flying backward in pain.
But the energy-accumulating flame attack was already complete, and his speed had increased to a level that Young Gilas and Duraludon could only dream of.
At such speeds, the probability of avoiding Larva's "Rock Slide" will be one thousand percent!
"Charge forward, use the Misty Mist, and then roll around Larva!"
"Stir it up!"
A cloud of murky mist billowed from its nostrils, and the Fried Pig then curled up and transformed into a poison mist chariot, circling around Young Gilas.
The incredibly fast fried pig disappeared quickly into the murky fog that obscured visibility, creating a skill effect only a smokescreen could produce.
That's right, poison damage only deals about a quarter of the damage to Larvitar; without STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus), it's about the same as a mosquito bite.
Why not just not use it to deal damage? If you don't want to attack, it won't be resisted!
"Young Yoshi!"
Holding the massive rock aloft, Young Gilas hesitated as he watched the scrambled pig accelerate, leaving afterimages.
At this moment, Xia Ming's voice undoubtedly gave him a boost of confidence:
"Trust your feelings, Neo-Kyrgyra, I believe you can do it!"
"Yukichi~ Yukichi!"
bong!
With his eyes closed, Young Gilas used the vibrations in the ground to predict the movement of the Fried Pig, as a huge rock crashed down with a deafening roar.
Did you win?
"Tsk..."
"Shut up—!"
bingo!
Mingyi felt a pang of sympathy as she watched Chaochao Pig being sent flying by the rocks and even appearing to be in a state of "cowardice".
How could I have won? This shouldn't be happening!
Keep in mind that Fried Pig used Mist to conceal itself after increasing its speed. Rock Slide is not a guaranteed hit skill to begin with, and under such suppression, the hit rate is pitifully low.
But Larva hit! It also triggered Rock Slide's "Coward" effect, rendering the Stir-fried Pig unable to move for a short time.
Mingyi saw through Xia Ming's thoughts, but luck didn't seem to be on her side.
"That's it, charge in and use it—"
"Come back, stir-fry some pork!"
"A piercing sound!"
"I choose you, Green Vine Serpent!"
Stir-fried Pig can withstand the next guaranteed double-strike attack, but Serperior can't deal with Duraludon, so Mingyi has to switch out Stir-fried Pig and let Serperior resist Larvitar's attack.
"Yukichi—Yukichi!"
A piercing scream rang out after Younggilas charged into Mingyi's half of the field.
The Green Vine Snake, who had just been substituted into the field, painfully covered its ears, and then its body flashed with a white light.
Her defenses have been significantly reduced!
"Now it's our turn to fight back! Come back, Larvitar! Charge, Duraludon! Sharpen your claws!"
"The Green Vine Serpent charges forward and uses 'Draft'!"
Unfortunately, what good is being blessed with luck?
Larvitar, which is four times weak to Grass-type, is not only slow but also deals low damage. It doesn't even need to predict the moves. After using a status move that lowers the type, Xia Ming has to switch to Duraludon.
Mingyi read Xiaming's instructions first. If she wanted to defeat Xiaming reliably, Duraludon would need to perform at least three attribute enhancements!
Draft, launch a surprise attack, and increase your speed.
In order to deal with some special situations, Mingyi obtained the "Drafting Learning Device" with the support of the Alliance, which taught the Green Vine Snake this move and made up for her possible lack of speed.
With this speed, Xia Ming will have to think twice before trying to enhance his attributes again.
It's important to know that not only Duraludon, but also Viper has the "Grow" move, which boosts speed. With Duraludon's speed being far from sufficient, the time it takes for Viper to boost once is enough for Viper to boost twice!
Yes, the Dragonsteel type Aluminosi has four times the resistance to Grass-type moves, but only two times the resistance to Normal-type moves.
With its superior strength compared to Aluminum Steel Dragon, Viper might still be capable of defeating Aluminum Steel Dragon. At the very least, it could significantly deplete its stamina before switching to Fried Pig to finish it off.
So what difference is there between the remaining young Kira and a toy in front of the Green Vine Serpent?
"Lulu~"
whoosh~
Sharpening claws gives the Aluminum Steel Dragon's claws a dangerous and deadly sheen, increasing both its attack power and accuracy.
Just after he finished sharpening his claws, the Green Vine Snake, which had the advantage of striking first, quickly attacked.
"It's moldy!"
Its tail lashed out, but the Aluminum Steel Dragon's high durability allowed it to withstand the mosquito-bite-like attack without sustaining any damage.
But the Green Vine Serpent's goal wasn't to attack, but to increase its speed!
"Metal Claw!"
"Back off and then use Parasitic Seed."
"Ru~!"
The aluminum-steel dragon brandished its sharp claws and rushed forward impatiently, its metallic claws striking the green vine snake that couldn't retreat in time.
whoosh~
Metal Claws sometimes triggers an additional effect, giving Aluminum Steel Dragon an extra layer of attack power!
"No way, you cheated!"
"This is the bond between me and my Pokémon; you'd never understand!"
The two consecutive extra effects made Mingyi want to curse. Why?! This is too unfair!
Bonds? You've got a bond with me!
"Add mold!"
The Green Vine Snake, having been knocked away, gritted its teeth and released a handful of parasitic seeds, successfully parasitizing the Aluminum Steel Dragon.
She quickly turned back and successfully maintained a safe distance from the aluminum-steel dragon after landing. Beneath her pained expression was a body ready to obey orders at any moment, as she awaited Mingyi's next instructions.
"Hmph, that's just a lucky break. You're still 20,000 years away from defeating me, Green Vine Serpent. Use Growth Enhancement after your slam and retreat!"
Didn't you reach level 28 in your training? All you can do now is throw and beat?
"Aluminum Steel Dragon, charge forward and fling her off with your tail!"
Oh, so my aluminum steel dragon is like that too. Oh well, never mind.
The Aluminum Steel Dragon, which is only level 26 in terms of breeding, has already mastered the Dragon Tail skill. Although Xia Ming is raising her freely, she is not just eating and sleeping like a female baby Gilas.
She has mastered the Dragon Tail technique through her practice of wide-area destruction!
"Add mold~"
pat~
The vine whip was pulled out from behind, and the green vine snake slammed towards the ground and flew backward. After landing, it used Growth and Rooting to strengthen itself.
On the other side, the Aluminum Steel Dragon gathered its dragon attribute power into its tail, creating a huge dragon tail, and then ran over like a giant dragon!
Boom!Boom!Boom!
The sound of trampling was deafening!
