As expected, Adam asked Kashiwagi to use Menas to fight with him.
"Please use all your strength to defeat my Menas."
He stood on the high platform dedicated to the owner of the gym. His voice was not loud but it was enough to spread throughout the entire venue. "An excellent trainer must possess the characteristics of water. No matter what kind of 'container' he encounters, he can change its shape and create
Correct response.
"Whether it's a gorgeous artistic performance or a sophisticated tactical strategy, let me see your limits."
"Milu!!"
Adam's Menas swung its long tail and gently slapped the water, and its whole body sparkled like sequins flying, making the Menas look stunned for a moment.
"Those are the fragments of light produced by water splashes reflecting light. Don't be fooled. The special effects of your scales are more gorgeous than that!"
Kashiwagi snapped his fingers several times before waking up the idiot next to him.
What's going on with the majestic heterochromatic Menas, a beautiful snake with golden scales and blue fins, being obsessed with the beauty of another Menas?
Don't your golden scales look better than those little water splashes in the sun?
Please! Calm down!
After he reminded Menus, he looked at Adam across from him. The latter smiled and spread his hands towards him, as if he wanted to give the order first.
The calm posture made Kashiwagi nervous for the first time in a long time.
He subconsciously licked his lips.
I am used to battles in which the two are evenly matched, and even higher levels crush lower levels. Returning to the original situation of low levels fighting high levels is a bit unaccustomed.
And the heterochromatic Menas, who was ranked fifty-level, had to face Menas, who was Adam's trump card. There was at least a twenty-level gap between the two.
Not to mention the value of various efforts accumulated over time.
By the way, perhaps it was his misunderstanding, Adam seemed to pay special attention to Menas, and he vaguely believed that the latter was the manifestation of his core Pokémon.
It’s very difficult to do...
But is there no chance of winning? Not necessarily.
Kashiwagi decided to leave precious opportunities to strengthen his moves.
"Panqian!"
"Milo~"
The heterochromatic Menas let out a low cry, and when it rushed into the pool, its body naturally curled up into a spiral, and an upwelling of orange-red energy flashed past.
Seeing the order coming from the other side, Adam stopped waiting.
"Pray for rain."
"Mi-lu~"
His Menas raised its beautiful gooseneck and roared loudly, and dark clouds appeared out of thin air over the venue at a speed visible to the naked eye.
All of a sudden.
The patter of raindrops fell, causing ripples.
Manually turn on rain?
Kashiwagi was shocked and felt something was wrong, "Freezing beam! Seal its movement space!"
No matter what Adam is going to do, he must first restrict Menas' movement.
"Milo~"
The heterochromatic Menas howled, ice-blue energy quickly gathered in its mouth, and immediately several ice-blue lightnings flew out!
"Tidal wave."
Adam looked calm, as if he didn't see the attack.
And the moment the icy blue lightning fell in front of his Menas, the originally calm water suddenly plummeted, and a strong vortex almost caused and twisted the entire pool of water, forming a huge cone-shaped hollow!
Zhi——
Lightning suddenly struck the inner wall of the whirlpool, and a dazzling light was released at the intersection, causing part of the flowing water to freeze, but was quickly broken into crystal-like ice ballast by the subsequent tide.
After all, the Freezing Beam was a move with non-native attributes, and the level gap between the two sides was too large, which resulted in the envisioned ice-freezing tactic not being carried out smoothly.
The key tidal vortex is getting bigger and bigger, and the spiral water twists and turns continuously generates suction. In just a few breaths, it spreads to the heterochromatic Menas side.
Kashiwagi frowned, and he had a new understanding of Adam Menus' strength.
Even if the rainy weather enhances the power of the tidal whirlpool, it would be a fool's errand for Menas to want his move to affect the entire pool without any real strength.
If he guessed correctly, Adam's attack should have combos!
But he also understood that he didn't have much time to make a judgment, so he simply ordered: "Rush in in the direction where the water flow twists!"
"Milo!"
Hearing this, the heterochromatic Menas, who was retreating away, jumped out of the water without hesitation and headed towards the whirlpool like a dart, and swam in the direction of the whirlpool to blend into it.
The strong trust between the two made Adam smile.
"The execution is good, but it may not be a good decision to mix in the tidal wave - tornado!"
"Milu!"
A bright light flashed in his Menas eyes, and the tail hidden in the water that rotated like a fan to control the tidal wave suddenly accelerated, and a blue energy surged out of thin air, attached to the surface of the tidal wave and made a huge rumbling sound.
The next moment.
A seaspout that reached all over the sky suddenly broke through the water, with a deafening sound that penetrated the dark clouds and reached the dome of the venue!
"Milo——"
The heterochromatic Menas was forced to fly out of the water. Although it had been swimming in the direction of the current rotation, it was still inevitably rushed to the ceiling! Clover
Bang!
The heavy impact was clearly audible.
"Since I have seen your performance at the Autumn Leaves Festival, I naturally know that Menas can escape from the waterspout by climbing the waterfall."
Adam exudes the temperament of a master, "But unfortunately, the power of a waterspout combined with a tidal cyclone and a tornado is different."
After the invincible waterspout was defeated by Ash's Pikachu a few years ago, he started researching the moves again, and finally the combination of tidal wave and tornado came into being.
It was a pity that the position of the gym leader was handed over to Mikri not long after, resulting in very few people who had seen this trick.
So faced with this situation, what choice would you make?
Adam looked expectantly at the cypress tree that raised its head in the distance, but Menas' exclamation suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Milu!"
He raised his head suddenly and saw that the waterspout that had fully released its power gradually stopped. The blue energy generated by the tornado on the outside seemed to be pulled by some force and kept flying into the broken ceiling at the top.
An astonishing light appeared from it as if brewing to the extreme, as dazzling as sunlight penetrating dark clouds!
"That's—"
Adam's eyes trembled. With his understanding of Menas, how could he not be clear about what happened? He immediately shouted: "Water cannon!"
"Specular reflection!"
Kashiwagi gave the order at the same time.
However, even if he didn't say anything, the heterochromatic Menas had already returned the energy impact of the waterspout doubled!
Boom——!!
A waterspout with the same or even larger appearance crashed down, twisting the air like a hurricane hammer falling from the sky and hitting Adam's Menas!
Although the latter raised its head and sprayed out a bright blue water column that was quite powerful and even caused huge splashes of water, it was instantly destroyed by the waterspout and was extremely weakly pushed into the bottom of the pool.
The raging waves hit the edge of the pool, rolled up high and then fell heavily, even the surrounding auditoriums were soaked.
The closest trees, Cypress and Adam, were not immune. Both were covered with water from head to tail. Clover
but.
Compared to the former who was soaked all over, Adam, whose clothes were already waterproof, only had a slightly moist face, and his hair did not change at all due to the waterproof hair wax applied on it.
The man who carried out his dignity to the extreme smiled and said: "I see, have you been prepared to take this blow head-on? It seems that you are very confident in Menas' durability."
Release the mirror-reflected waterspout.
The heterochromatic Menas fell weakly from the broken ceiling and fell into the pool with a loud bang. The splashing waves once again wet the cypress skirt.
His expression did not change at all, "I believe in more than just Menas's durability, Teacher Adam."
While the two were talking, the two Menas floated up separately, with different injuries on their bodies. They lowered their heads slightly and breathed heavily, as if they would fall down at any time.
to be honest.
Although he knew that Adam's Menas could not fall down so easily, he was quite surprised by the power of the mirror reflection.
Is there as much as twice the difference in stamina between the two Meenas?
But if you think carefully about the water cannon used by Adam Menas at the most critical moment, most of it was reflected in the mirror during the confrontation, and it consumed a lot of power, which allowed it to survive.
Adam Menas's reaction is so quick, it is worthy of being an ace Pokémon at the top gym leader level.
As for what’s next…
"Water Ring!"
"Self-regeneration!"
Kashiwagi and Adam ordered again.
Both Pokémon, who were in critical condition, quickly used their self-healing skills. Golden luster and multiple turquoise water rings appeared on their bodies, and the exposed scars healed quickly.
Unfortunately, a continuous recovery move like the water ring, even if it is not restricted by an absolute percentage in the animation background, is far inferior to self-regeneration.
When Adam Menas finished regenerating itself, it was difficult to find scars on its surface.
On the other hand, on the side of the heterochromatic Menas, even though the flowing water surrounding him continued to release green light and submerged it into his body, there were still many scars left.
This resulted in Kashiwagi being unable to take the offensive initiative, and it was difficult to implement tactics aimed at winning.
"Um……"
Adam narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this, "Can't it regenerate itself? This is not possible. Since you want to maintain good results in the gorgeous competition, you must keep Menas in the best possible state of brilliance."
"Been taught a lesson."
Kashiwagi nodded.
Of course he knew the importance of self-regeneration, otherwise he would not have learned from Adam. Self-understanding is not feasible, so isn’t it the only way to learn from others?
"good."
Adam was quite satisfied with his humble and studious attitude when fighting.
Many young people may be polite at ordinary times, but once they get into a hard fight, they will become anxious and angry. When criticized, they will immediately throw away their etiquette as if they have lost their minds.
Adam raised his hand and said: "Since your Menas can block the damage caused by super power, what about this move?
"Meenas, charming."
Kashiwagi, who was just trying to buy time by chatting, asked the heterochromatic Menas to reply as much as possible. His expression changed, "We are the same! Use charming!"
Two menas of different colors and genders each made a low cry.
On the one hand, he raised his head proudly, with an arrogant and arrogant look, but also faintly exuded a heart-stirring charm; on the other hand, his eyes flickered, and combined with the scars on his body, he looked pitiful and pitiful, making people unconsciously feel pity for him.
Pink hearts are made of energy, each flying towards the other.Clover
Kashiwagi originally thought that they would collide with each other and cancel each other out, but who would have thought that the two of them actually rubbed past each other steadily and fell into each other's body as if they were deliberately tracing a line.
The venue suddenly became quiet for a moment.
There was only the sound of the dripping rain and the swaying waves of the pond.
immediately.
In Kashiwagi's sight, there was an inexplicable love pattern in Adam's red eyes, and his head shook slightly as if he was drunk.
——[Enchanted] state.
In the game, there is a 50% probability that he will not make a move, which is equivalent to 100% for the African chief.
And in the animation...
The actual performance is not much different from 100%.
The powerful effect also means that the obsessed state does not have to be eliminated in order to be cleared, and there is also a probability of waking up after being beaten - provided that the person does not faint directly and lose combat status during the period of being beaten.
Or you can just let the Pokémon sit still for a long time. At most, the duration is longer than normal status changes.
After all, there is no such thing as a Poke Ball in nature to allow wild Pokémon to refresh their status.
But no matter what was said.
Being out of control for a long time in a real-time battle is quite scary. As long as your opponent is not a fool, you can easily seize such a chance to win.
Kashiwagi really wanted to kill Adam's Menas with a combo of moves.
Helplessly, the heterochromatic Menas was obviously also caught in the attack. His big head swayed and he leaned towards the opponent involuntarily.
The same is true for Adam's Menas, two beautiful snakes running in both directions.
What the hell.
The situation is not good. There won’t be an extra egg after beating it, right? Or maybe one day you wake up and suddenly find an egg next to the heterochromatic Menus? With the two of them in this state, it is very likely that it will continue!
He felt something was wrong, but Adam himself stood there with a smile on his face, seemingly not worried at all.
Could it be...Clover
Kashiwagi looked at Adam's Menas carefully, and sure enough, he could see some struggling expression on the guy's face, and he was crying in his heart.
After Alice's Double Ax Battle Dragon kowtows to eliminate the chaotic state, Adam's Menas will also use his will to eliminate the obsessed state?
Sure enough, in the context of animation, anything can happen.
But since the other party can use his will to release the obsessed state, why can't he do it on his own?
He began to think of countermeasures.
suddenly.
From the corner of Kashiwagi's eyes, he saw Boscodora who was far away from the venue, silently watching the battle with a look of worry on his face, and a bold idea came to him.
He shouted: "Wake up! Menas! The big monster is watching you!"
"Um?"
The smile on Adam's face faded slightly, and a look of confusion flashed across his face. He didn't quite understand what his new student was shouting.
"Meinas!! Do you remember Longmen Waterfall! Do you remember the Autumn Leaves Conference!"
Kashiwagi continued to speak, because he found that the frequency of the head shaking of the heterochromatic Menus became higher, and the expression of Adam Menas also began to struggle.
The distance between the two is already less than one meter.
He only felt horrified, and his shouts became louder and louder: "Climb to the limit! Never admit defeat - Clover
“Our opportunity is at hand!!”
"roar--!!"
Boscodora, who was watching the battle, suddenly roared in response.
Obviously, the side of the heterochromatic Menas can only be considered shaken, but it can no longer suppress the excitement in its heart as it can watch the battle. It puts down its gentle and steady image and uses all its strength to give to the one who always stays by its side and watches the sea quietly together.
Come on, partner.
And this also achieved Kashiwagi’s ultimate goal——
Without relying on language guidance or eye contact, it naturally resonated with Boscodora.
One is my favorite trainer, and the other is the senior I admire the most, admire the most, and... also like so much that I can't like him anymore.
The sounds of the two constantly vibrated the heterochromatic Menas' hearing and shook its consciousness at the spiritual level.
There was a bit of surprise on Adam's face, because he found that the pink love in the eyes of the heterochromatic Menas was showing signs of collapse, and he relied on the trainer's call to awaken himself!?
The next moment.
"Mi--!"
The golden tail broke out of the water, and the fan-like tail fin hit the head hard.
Bang!
During the heavy muffled sound, the eyes of the heterochromatic Menas shook violently, and he turned to look with incomparable clarity at the shocked Adam in front of him, and his opponent Menas Clover who was still immersed in a state of fascination.
will?
Having broken through its limits and regained a new life from a desperate situation, what it is not afraid of most is its willpower!
Adam may know that Menus is good at climbing waterfalls, but he probably doesn't know how much Menas has gone through just for that moment of rushing out.
It is no longer the weak ugly fish it once was!
"Milo~"
The heterochromatic Menas raised her upper body high and raised her hair-like fins slightly, looking down at her opponent like a goddess about to judge sinners.
Heaven’s orders come one after another—Cloth
"Awakening the Power."
All of a sudden.
The shining thunder was accompanied by many light balls, lighting up the entire venue!
