Chapter 19
, Part 1: Pressing the Bullets
Xia Mu remained calm in the expectant gaze of Zi Yu.
"One more time! Lots of leaves!"
"Utterly useless! Charged Flame Strike!"
The scene repeated itself once again.
Watching Shin-chan struggle to stand up again after being attacked, Kiku'er's expression toward Natsuki grew increasingly cold.
"So you're just a trainer of this level after all..."
Looking at the trembling new leaf cat, Xiaoju sighed.
"The final blow, charged flame attack!"
"Neigh!"
Its already high speed is further enhanced by the skill boost from multiple charged flame attacks.
The speed of the lightning zebra has reached a terrifying level.
Just then, Ziyu, who had never believed that Xia Mu's tactics would be so simple, suddenly narrowed her eyes.
"That is..."
"Now!"
Amidst Xia Mu's shouts, Xin Ye Miao let out a loud cry.
"Meow!"
There are still a lot of leaves.
But unlike before...
This time, the leaf attack wasn't targeting the lightning zebra, but rather...
"The ground! So that's it! It was a trap!"
Ziyu finally realized Xia Mu's tactical intentions, as did Xiaojuer.
"Jump up!"
Unfortunately, at such a speed, the Thunder Zebra was unable to react in any way.
boom!
With a loud bang, the lightning zebra, which was sprinting at high speed, seemed to have tripped over something, and its entire body rolled out and crashed heavily into the wall outside the arena.
At this moment, the energy-accumulating flame attack, originally intended to enhance combat power, became the main reason why the Thunder Zebra lost its fighting ability.
The excessive speed caused him to suffer more severe injuries when he flew out.
Little Chrysanthemum: "..."
Looking at the lightning zebra stuck in the wall, its eyes already turned into mosquito coils, Xiaoju sighed deeply, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"I really got a good lesson!"
Only now, recalling the conversation before the battle began, did Xiaoju realize...
original.
From that moment on, the man in front of you was already digging a pit.
He not only knew that he habitually used Charged Flame Strike to accelerate when using Thunder Zebra, but he also knew that with New Leaf Cat's level, he would never be a match for Thunder Zebra in a head-on confrontation.
so......
The attack deliberately used a large number of leaves, which looked impressive, but in reality, it was just digging a pit with leaves. The dust and leaf debris generated when the Thunder Zebra used its Charged Flame Strike perfectly covered up these traces.
After being attacked several times, the lightning zebra was guided towards the trap.
"It's not a sophisticated tactic, but..."
With Xia Mu's acting skills, Xiao Ju'er didn't notice anything unusual at all.
"Really... I was careless!"
Little Chrysanthemum shook her head and recalled the Thunder Zebra.
At this time.
The referee finally reacted to the sudden turn of events and abruptly swung his right hand.
"Thunder Zebra is unable to fight, New Leaf Cat wins!"
As the referee shouted, Xia Mu immediately stepped forward and hugged Xin Ye Miao.
"Thanks for your hard work, Shin-chan!"
"Meow~"
Xin Ye Miao licked Xia Mu's palm, her big eyes filled with only three words.
Aren't cats awesome?
"That's amazing!"
After giving Xin Ye Miao's head a good rub, Xia Mu took out a Poké Ball.
"Let's take a break for now!"
"~o(=∩ω∩=)m!"
Ziyu's expression was full of amazement as she watched the two of them recall their Pokémon.
No wonder New Leaf Cat's attacks didn't do much damage before; it turns out it used most of the leaves to dig traps.
It can be seen from Xia Mu's performance.
He has done extensive research on Xiaoju'er's battle style and Pokémon.
Trainers start digging traps before battles, while Newleafy digs traps during battles.
"I really don't know whether to say trainers are like Pokémon, or Pokémon are like trainers..."
......
At this time.
To boost morale, Little Chrysanthemum sent out her second sprite.
"Electric Spider, step into the spotlight!"
Little Chrysanthemum sent out a second elf.
Looking at the large yellow spider in front of him, and then at the Snivy Poké Ball he had prepared in his hand.
Xia Mu looked somewhat speechless.
Why am I getting type disadvantaged when I challenge the Electric-type Gym?!
If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to train the two little ones, Xia Mu would have really wanted to throw the clay giant out right now.
Then, the entire dojo was destroyed by the earthquake.
However, based on the information I found online before...
At this moment, Xiaoju'er should have dispatched the second team of the dojo.
Therefore, the spirit that Little Chrysanthemum is holding at this moment should be...
Thunder Zebra, Electric Spider, Fluffy Sheep, Electric Flying Squirrel, Muscular Eel, X-Raycat.
Considering that her Pokémon are already revealed, the last two Pokémon that Kiyomi sends out should both be Pokémon that can use Grass-type moves.
Therefore, the most likely Pokémon after Electabuzz is Eellipse with the Levitate ability.
Given the current situation, using Clay Golem to fight Electric Spider and Snivy to fight Ragnarok is the best strategy.
and.
As the so-called one-shot, and then decline, three and exhausted.
When Xiaojuer raised her fighting spirit, I should have...
"End this battle with overwhelming force, Clay Golem!"
"Buzz!"
Even though Little Chrysanthemum's electric spider was much larger than a normal electric spider, it still appeared too small in front of the Clay Golem.
This time, Xiaojuer, who had captured everyone's attention, attacked first.
"Energy Ball!"
Upon hearing Xiaoju'er's command, the electric spider began to gather the surrounding natural energy, and an energy ball emitting a green light condensed in front of it.
call out!
The electric spider should be highly proficient with energy balls.
In an extremely short time, the energy ball took shape and was launched.
but.
No matter how powerful a skill is, it's useless if you can't hit the target.
"Sneak Attack by a Hidden Spirit!"
The shadow beneath the clay giant suddenly rippled like the surface of water.
next moment.
The clay giant's body vanished from everyone's sight.
The energy ball that passed through the air achieved nothing.
Xiao Ju'er did not hesitate at all.
"Fly using spider silk!"
The electric spider reacted extremely quickly, shooting out a thick strand of silk that connected to the steel frame on the ceiling.
next moment.
The electric spider's body suddenly flew up.
pity.
"Grab him, Flame Fist!"
Accompanied by a shadow, the clay giant appeared directly in the path of the electric spider, at the same time.
A giant hand engulfed in flames slammed down on the electric spider.
"hiss--"
boom!
It was accompanied by a mournful screech and a loud bang.
The electric spider's body slammed heavily onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
As the dust settled.
The electric spider was rendered unable to fight.
Little Chrysanthemum: "......"
"As expected of a Pokémon hailed as a giant, its strength is indeed formidable!"
After a soft sigh, Xiaoju returned the Electric Spider to its Poké Ball.
"Their eyes are dazzlingly bright!"
After encouraging the Electric Spider, Little Daisy took out her last Poké Ball.
"Well then, this is the last one!"
"Waaaaah~" xN
Upon hearing this, the audience members outside the venue burst into tears.
"Miss Little Chrysanthemum, keep it up!"
"No matter what, we will support you!"
"Go for it! Go for it!"
Amidst cheers and encouragement, Xiaoju regained her confidence.
"Go, Mama Eel!"
