Chapter 25 Shinji's Shock
"It's actually a curse. It seems like it doesn't want to continue fighting with me." Xiaoyun watched Shinji command Dodaika to use the curse skill, which was very similar to Shattering the Shell. This was a move that sacrificed one's own speed in exchange for attack and defense, while Shattering the Shell sacrificed one's own defense in exchange for attack and speed.
Because Squirtle is already very slow, if you use the curse, it will basically be fixed in place like a living target and can't move. Uh... But it doesn't seem to make much of a difference. Squirtle is a standing Pokémon, and the curse is like it was tailor-made for it.
"What is a curse?"
Xiaozhi, a classmate next to him, started to ask questions. He usually didn't memorize the moves and relied on improvisation.
"Curse is a Ghost-type move. If a Ghost-type Pokémon uses it, the user's maximum stamina will be reduced by half, causing the target to enter a cursed state. In the cursed state, the cursed person's stamina will be rapidly reduced.
If the user does not have the ghost attribute, the effect is also different. The user's speed begins to decrease significantly, and the corresponding attack and defense are greatly improved. If nothing unexpected happens, the two will soon be able to decide the winner. "Our Dr. Yamanashi started offline teaching and gave Xiaozhi, a student who did not study hard, some theoretical knowledge.
"I see." Xiaozhi nodded to show that he understood. (Xiaogang: You better really understand!)
"Xiao Yun..." Xiao Guang also heard Dr. Yamanashi's explanation and looked at Xiao Yun on the field with some worry.
"Tutai!"
The Tutai Turtle on the field flashed white light on its body, and then its aura began to increase significantly, and its eyes stared straight at the Lizard King.
"Dodai Turtle, use Hardening Plants!!"
The moment Shinji finished speaking, the turtle used all its strength to stomp hard on the ground with its front paws.
The next moment, the ground in front of him suddenly collapsed, forming countless exaggerated cracks.
Wow wow wow!!
Next came brown thorns that grew wildly from the ground. Each one was extremely thick and several meters tall.
These tall thorny plants seemed to have their own lives, swaying wildly in the air. The scene was terrifying and horrifying, and they all lashed towards the Lizard King.
"It's so scary."
Watching Shinji commanding the Tortoise to use such a terrifying attack on the Lizard King, Xiaoyun said the lines exclusive to a certain navy admiral, and then spoke lightly to the Lizard King.
"Lizard King, use Blade Storm."
"Cha-bai!"
The next moment, the Lizard King's eyes became sharper. He leaped into the air, and with both arms, he used blades to circle in front of him and began to spin at high speed. During the rotation, the light of the blades gradually became stronger, and the whole elf rushed towards the thorns like a tornado.
Click, click, click!
The thick thorns as big as trees seemed so fragile under the attack of the Lizard King, and were easily cut into pieces by the tornado created by the Lizard King's high-speed rotation.
"What! Tutai Turtle, hurry up, use all the thorns to block the attack at one point."
Shinji looked at the tornado transformed by the Lizard King in shock. He didn't know how Xiaoyun did it, but he knew that he had to stop the Lizard King first, so he ordered the Tsuchiya to gather the thorns together to intercept the Lizard King's tornado.
boom!
After resisting the Lizard King's sword dance for a moment, the gathered thorns were still broken apart by the tornado, passing through the hardened plants and directly hitting the turtle's glans.
"Tutai!"
Even though the Tutai Turtle had been cursed to improve its defense, it was still very uncomfortable to be hit directly on the glans by such a powerful attack. The whole elf suddenly became listless and lost its ability to fight after just a few seconds.
"just!"
After the attack, the Lizard King flashed back to Xiaoyun and continued to maintain his fighting stance.
"What exactly was that attack just now?" After seeing that the Dodaika had lost its ability to fight due to such a horrible attack, Shinji could no longer maintain the expression on his face, and asked Xiaoyun in a somewhat inappropriate manner.
"If you want to learn, I'll teach you." Xiaoyun raised his eyebrows, couldn't help but say this classic line, then turned his back with his hands behind his back.
Show your demeanor.
"........"
Shinji was silent for a moment and ignored Xiaoyun's teasing. He just looked at his tortoise quietly.
He knew he had lost. Unlike his previous carelessness, in this match he used his initial Pokémon but was defeated head-on by the opponent. Looking at the Lizard King who was still calm and composed, he could even say that he had lost miserably.
Everyone was shocked by the battle just now. Facing everyone's and Shinji's doubts, Xiaoyun began to explain slowly.
“This move is called Blade Storm, and it was inspired by Abi, the gym trainer of the Chengdu Local Insect Gym.
The general Sword Dance is a transformation skill, and it is easy for the opponent to catch the opponent off guard when using it. However, Gym Leader Abi's Scyther can use the rotating Sword Dance to defend by taking advantage of Scyther's own characteristics, and it can even block the attacks of Fire-type Pokémon.
I upgraded this technique. Although Lizard King doesn't have the sword blade that Scyther has, I can imitate and strengthen it by using the blade.
With the addition of its own rotation and blades, the sword dance will not be interrupted and has the ability to attack. The tornado formed during the rotation will become stronger and stronger, and finally gather at one point, breaking the opponent with one blow. " (For the above, please refer to the battle tornado battle animation of Battle Greymon.)
After being bombarded with a lot of knowledge and seeing that everyone was still confused, Xiaoyun finally felt the joy of pretending to be smart.
In one word, cool!
"You are very strong. You win this game."
After hearing this, Shinji did not blame anyone, but just took back his tortoise shell and looked at Xiaoyun with a slightly fluctuating look in his eyes.
"But after this time, I will carefully review the reasons for my failure and formulate a strategy. I hope we can fight again next time."
Uh...Shinji's words are indeed rational. After losing the battle, he didn't get discouraged or rage. Instead, he calmed down and summarized the reasons for the failure, improved the tactical plan, and thought about how to defeat himself in the next battle.
How should I put it? He is truly the strongest enemy in history!
After a long while, Dr. Hou Yamanashi slowly said, "Xiaoyun, you do have amazing talent as a trainer. I originally thought it was a pity that you didn't follow me to do research, but now it seems that I took it for granted."
"Doctor, you are too kind. This is the result of the joint efforts of the Lizard King and I. The move just now is easy to say, but in fact, it took a lot of hard training from the Lizard King for us to use this move in the battle."
Xiaoyun told Dr. Yamanashi about his training process with the Lizard King.
In fact, it is quite difficult. When I first started practicing, I often couldn't control the direction and ended up crashing everywhere. After being warned by Lina, I had to run to the back mountain and practice again before I succeeded.
