Props: none
Skills: Impact, Round, Rock Grinding, Sandstorm, Roll, Harden, Rockfall, Shoot Down, Stomp, Self-Destruct, Invisible Rock
Genetic Skill: Million Ton Punch
Rumblestone's level is also very high. It has many rock-related skills and also possesses the clan's inherited skill [Million Ton Punch].
Fortunately, they did not have any suitable props to carry and had not yet learned large-scale ground skills such as [Earthquake], which relieved some of the pressure on Cang Xiangnan and the Platypus.
Rhydon is not as high as the Charmeleon in terms of level, but its attribute advantage makes it not afraid of the Charmeleon at all.
The first to strike goes to attack. Cang Xiangnan waved his hand and started the first competition of his life.
It was this waving action that made Chi Baixia, who was waiting in the waiting room, feel very familiar. Isn't this my opening action...
The Platypus launched the attack first, and as it quickly approached Rhydon, it spewed out clouds of black smoke from its mouth. It was its [Muddy Mist] skill!
This is a skill that blows dirty smoke at the opponent to attack, sometimes causing the opponent to become poisoned.
Another function of the [Mist] skill is to block the opponent's line of sight.
"Avoid it!"
Rumblestone didn't have the skills to blow away the dirty black smoke, so it could only run to the smokeless area at the edge of the battlefield. After all, fighting the duck-billed fire beast in the black smoke was too dangerous.
However, Rhydon was not idle either. He used his skill [Invisible Rock]. Sharp rocks covered the area around the duck-billed fire beast and it gradually became hidden.
"Isn't this a singles match?"
Cang Xiangnan was a little confused about his opponent's actions, but he gave the order again without hesitation.
After receiving the order, the Platypus spit out a breath of blazing flames from its mouth, engulfing itself, bent its body to form a wheel, and headed towards the Rumblestone that was forced into a corner of the opposite platform.
Not willing to be outdone, Rhydon followed its trainer's command and used [Circle] and [Roll] at the same time to move towards the rapidly approaching Infernape.
boom!
The collision between the two sides caused a loud noise.
"what?"
The trainer of Rhydon looked at his Pokémon in disbelief, as red light kept flashing on Rhydon's body.
This is the burning state!
"How is this going?"
In the stands, some viewers who didn't understand asked questions.
"This is the burning state. The kid's duck-billed fire beast should have the [Flame Body] attribute. This attribute can sometimes cause the opponent who comes into contact with it to become burned."
"What is the burn status?"
"When a Pokémon is in the burned state, the damage of non-fixed damage physical moves will be halved, and it will continue to lose physical strength."
"Brother, you are amazing. You know everything."
"No, no, it's mainly because the teacher taught well."
Hua Jianming couldn't help but laugh when he saw Longlongshi falling into a burning state. Now he was completely stable.
"The opponent's luck is really bad. He is ready to admit defeat before even two rounds."
Although everyone said this, the trainer of Rhydon did not give up, but let Rhydon continue to attack.
"Rumblestone, use [Rockfall]!"
Following the Round and Rolling Tactic, Rumblestone used the [Rockfall] skill. Rocks as big as footballs kept appearing out of thin air and hit the duck-billed fire beast.
In response to these rocks, the duck-billed fire beast chose to retreat and dodge. With such a huge advantage, Cang Xiangnan did not want to confront them head-on.
Only after forcing the Platypus to a far enough distance did Rumblestone stop attacking.
At this time, a faint white light appeared on the body of Rumble Stone, and there seemed to be an inexplicable light flashing by. This was Rumble Stone using the [Rock Grinding] skill to increase its speed.
Since physical attacks have been weakened, increase speed to make yourself more flexible.
In fact, the purpose of the opponent and the Rumble Stone is also Cang Xiangnan's purpose. The duck-billed fire beast has long-range skills such as [Muddy Mist] and [Flame Jet], and it can easily win as long as it fights a war of attrition and defensive counterattacks.
"Rumblestone, use [Sandstorm]!"
After successfully increasing its speed, Rumblestone began to raise a sandstorm on the spot, and the huge sandstorm just happened to cover the entire battlefield.
"So what does the Rumble Stone trainer want to do?"
Little Han Xin looked at Hua Jianming who was sitting next to him in confusion. This operation was indeed difficult to understand.
"It's very chaotic and disorganized. He doesn't know what he wants to do, and he himself has no idea. The difference between him and Xiangnan is the so-called gap in the command ability of a trainer."
Cang Xiangnan, who was invited by Chi Baixia and others to fight whenever he was free, had a good foundation and his command ability was better than other novice trainers.
Chapter 210 Youth Cup Battle (2)
It turns out that the choice of the Rhydon trainer is still somewhat effective. The speed increased by [Rock Grinding] allows Rhydon to dodge the attack of Infernape's [Flameblast] nine out of ten times.
Although the sandstorm can cause continuous damage to the Platypus, the [Jet Flame] blessed by the Platypus' charcoal can cause tons of damage to the Rumblestone with just one hit. Even the Rumblestone, which is resistant to fire skills, cannot be underestimated.
Coupled with the continuous consumption of the burning state, Rhydon eventually couldn't escape the fate of falling to the ground.
"Longlongshi cannot fight. The winner is Cang Xiangnan and his duck-billed fire beast."
The referee announced the result of the fight, and Cang Xiangnan proudly left the court amid applause from the audience.
As Cang Xiangnan won the game, Cang Xiangbei also won his own game. The electric-type Electabuzz won the battle against the water-type Golduck cleanly.
If Cang Xiangnan won the game beautifully, then Cang Xiangbei won the game neatly.
Next was Chi Baixia's turn to fight. Chi Baixia, who was on the command platform, casually threw out a silver Poké Ball, and a huge blue monster appeared on the battlefield.
Elf: Swampert
Level: 39
Sex: male
Qualification: Green
Attributes: Water, Ground
Features: Torrent (When physical strength decreases, the power of water-attribute moves will increase.)
Props: Mysterious water droplets
Skills: Crash, Scream, Water Gun, Rock Crushing, Rockfall, Hold, Ultrasonic, Water Wave, Rock Slide, Slam, Instant Amnesia, Mud Shooting, Earthquake, Hammer, Surfing, Waterfall Climbing, Charming
Genetic Skills: Bite, Stomp
Swampert's strength is growing rapidly, and it is only a little short of entering the gym level at the peak of the elite level. This is the result of Chi Baixia and Swampert deliberately suppressing their strength in order to win the Youth Cup Championship.
After all, among the three spokespersons of the Breeding House, I am the only one who got the spokesperson status the earliest and has not completed the spokesperson mission.
Although Chi Baixia didn't say it, he was indeed anxious.
The Youth Cup competition is aimed at people from all walks of life.
Unlike the students of Rongcheng Pokémon Academy who are already familiar with Chi Baixia and his Swampert, most of these participating spectators are from society, and they are quite surprised and curious about this starter Pokémon that can only be seen in the Unova on the other side of the ocean.
Even the commentator of the game couldn't help but introduce it a few more words.
Chi Baixia's opponent also threw the Poké Ball in his hand, and a Pokémon that looked very much like a pitcher plant, with the main part being yellow with dark yellow spots on the flowers, appeared in front of Chi Baixia and Swampert.
This is a dual-attribute Pokémon, Venusaur.
Chi Baixia frowned slightly. It was really hard to fight. Although Venusflower didn't seem to have the powerful momentum of Swampert, it had the Grass-type skills that Swampert feared the most.
Swampert, a Water and Ground-type monster, cannot withstand being hit by a Grass-type skill.
Elf: Big Food Flower
Level: 32
Sex: male
Qualification: cyan
Attributes: grass type, poison type
Features: Chlorophyll (Speed will increase on sunny days.)
Skills: Whip, Growth, Tightening, Dissolving Liquid, Hypnotic Powder, Poison Powder, Paralysis Powder, Leaf Blade, Poison Attack, Slam, Grass Blender, Charge, Swallow, Spray, Sweet Scent, Leaf Storm, Leaf Blade, Solar Beam, Venom Shock, Toxic, Energy Ball, Sleep, Sludge Bomb
Genetic skills: blood sucking, clear smoke, absorb power
The Pokémon panel of this Venusaur aroused Hua Jianming's curiosity. The cyan qualification meant that it was almost certain that this Venusaur would enter the King level, plus it had various skills that could almost be called a sea of skills.
Venusaur has many skills, including various melee and ranged skills, as well as disgusting skills like three powders and blood-recovering skills like sleeping and bloodsucking.
Such an elf can basically be said to be omnipotent.
It seems that anyone can have his or her own luck. The trainer of this Venusaur is a lucky man, and his future achievements will not be low.
The audience in the stands who knew Swampert's attributes felt sorry for him. Is the competition journey of the Big Three of the Unova Alliance going to end before it even began?
"Xiao Yu'er, [Earthquake]!"
Swampert has no attribute advantages, but its strength is definitely top-notch among elite Pokémon, so Chi Baixia did not choose a conservative style of play, but instead went for a direct attack.
Instantly, the entire battlefield began to shake violently. Even behind the giant swamp monster, Chi Baixia on the command platform seemed to be a little unstable.
Swampert is just one step away from breaking through the elite level and reaching the gym level. Its damage is not something that just any Pokémon can withstand.
Unfortunately, the opponent is a Venusaur that can really absorb the damage from Earthquake.
Although the Venus flytrap looks a little shaky, it is not a big problem. After all, with its physical strength, it is easy for the Venus flytrap to withstand a few earthquakes.
However, Swampert's powerful aura did attract the attention of Trainer Venomancer. Although his own Pokémon is extremely superior to the opponent in terms of attributes, his good combat skills make him cautious even when facing such an opponent.
"Vapula, use [Growth]."
The skill [Growth] can increase both the physical attack and special attack of Venusaur, and is a skill that has good compatibility with Venusaur.
After the strengthening was completed, the Venusaur trainer gave orders again.
"Big Food Flower, [Hypnotic Powder]!"
Venusflower sprayed a ball of bright powder from its huge mouth on its head and blew it towards Swampert. At Chi Baixia's command, Swampert roared and also made a huge roar from his mouth. The sound waves stopped the hypnotic powder from moving forward and even had a tendency to blow the hypnotic powder back.
