Porygon 2 knows that its basic strength cannot keep up with the first echelon.
Therefore, before growing up, he decided to let himself, who has many changing moves, play the role of his perfect assistant.
But can a helper who is too busy to take care of himself be considered a good helper!?
Although it was entangled by the tentacles under the instruction from its trainer not to dodge, Porygon 2 still took it as its own responsibility to fail to break free in time.
In particular, it was discovered that the sun coral became endangered in a very short period of time.
"Crack!!"
Back up!
Back up!
The stick-shaped Porygon 2 rushed towards Sun Coral at high speed.
Kashiwagi also clenched his fists and shouted nervously, "Sun Coral, use it quickly——"
However.
"The stinging jellyfish brings Lotte Kappa back!"
Facing Sun Coral, which was in extremely poor physical condition and was likely to lose its fighting ability even if it had a light wall after being attacked, Mikri's choice was to retreat.
The stinging jellyfish located at the edge of the field suddenly pulled the Lotte Kappa on the floating board to its side.
"Eh? Why?"
Lucia was quite puzzled.
Adam said: "This is not to give the Sun Coral a chance to take the initiative. If Mikri chooses to attack, then the one waiting for Lotte Kappa is [Tongming]. Even if the attack is not Sun Coral, it will take the initiative to greet it.
of."
The voice fell.
Seeing Mikri's smiling face in the distance, Kashiwagi frowned and changed his words, "Sleep! Porygon 2 transforms and carries it on its back!"
If we drag it on any longer, the sun coral will be killed by parasitic seeds and poisoning.
"voice……"
Sun Coral glanced at Mikri with resentment. It could have gotten off work with its glorious record of taking down one and a half of the opponent. Why are you so smart?
Coral is so angry!
Its candle-like eyes disappeared as it fell into sleep, and the bright green light on its body continued to ripple.
The [Sleep] state brought about by [Sleep] replaced the [Poisoned] state, and successfully restored its physical strength to the limit it could recover.
Although you can't get rid of the parasitic seeds, you don't have to worry about them falling down in the short term.
In a normal battle, this move would be called a "reversal".
"Tsk."
Kashiwagi clicked his tongue lightly.
As expected, a trainer who can become a champion is not as aggressive as ordinary people and will not be easily fooled.
Seeing that Mikri and his two Pokémon didn't take the bait, Porygon 2's abnormal expression immediately disappeared. It was indeed unwilling, but it didn't show it so obviously.
It's just a way to lure Mikri into being fooled.
Sometimes, acting is also a very important part of the battle. Once the opponent is eager to win, loses the ability to judge calmly, and shows a little anxiety and urgency, it will cause great misdirection to the opponent.
pity……
"Crack!"
Polygon 2 jumped into the water and splashed a lot of water.
puff!
Wait for the water to fall.
Porygon 2 has already lifted the sleeping sun coral on its back, overlooking the poisonous stinging jellyfish and Lotte Kappa in the pool.
The former is cursed and is losing physical strength every moment. There is no way to quickly restore physical strength such as self-regeneration...
Nothing to worry about.
What must be taken down as soon as possible is the Lotte Kappa. The physical strength this guy loses will be replenished by the parasitic seeds. It will not be nice to drag him to the end of the magic space.
Seize the opportunity while Porygon 2 is faster than them both.
"substitute!"
Kashiwagi decisively revealed the trump card that Porygon 2 has been practicing hard recently but has never shown in an official battle.
【Clone】!
"Crack!"
A light green light band like a data flow flew out from Porygon 2's body and gradually transformed into a round individual of equal proportions.
"Um?"
Mikri looked at the new Porygon 2, and the intuition of a powerful trainer told him that something was not quite right——
"Teleport!"
call!
New Polygon 2 suddenly disappeared in mid-air.
Mikri was stunned for a moment, and then he waved his hands and shouted, "Ring of water! Frozen wind!"
"Puff-"
The stinging jellyfish spits bubbles, stirring the water and shaking up the bright blue water ring.
Lotte Kappa opened its flat beak and was about to release the freezing wind when a bright green light beam composed of multiple apertures suddenly dropped from the sky.
Bang!
"Throo!"
Water mist exploded, mixed with the screams of Lotte Kappa.
The bright blue water ring around the stinging jellyfish suddenly pushed out in all directions, like a surging tide, but failed to hit any target.
The next moment.
"Discharge."
Boom!!
The frantic Razor jumped up from the bottom of the pool in a twisting and dancing manner, surrounding the Stinging Jellyfish and Lotte Kappa like a cage. The high-heat current evaporated a large amount of water mist, and also caused enough damage to the two Pokémon.
.
Their bodies twitched and twisted underwater.
Lucia's eyes widened in the audience, "Eh? How could that happen?"
"Can I use a substitute for moves..."
Adam looked a little solemn.
As the owner of the gym, he knows very well that once a substitute can use moves, even if the substitute has only a quarter of the body's physical strength, it will play a decisive role in the battle.
More importantly, Kashiwagi gradually mastered the rhythm of the battle.
Within the venue.
The surprise on Mi Keli's face turned into admiration, and he said: "It was a blow that caught me off guard, but it's a pity that my offensive ability is not enough...
"Sludge wave! Use absorbing punch on Porygon 2 in the sky!"
As he said, the Porygon 2 clone did not inherit the ability changes of the main body, and after the damage of the discharge spread, it failed to achieve a double kill result.
This is also related to the low level of Porygon 2.
The stinging jellyfish that recovered from the electric shock quickly sprayed out large amounts of venom, instantly turning half of the pool into the deep purple color of the venom.
Next to him, the Lotte Kappa jumped up, stepped on his companion's head and used it as a springboard to jump into the sky. His fists glowed a deep brown-red color as if they had been burned by flames.
"Texture 2!"
Kashiwagi's command was a little slower, but the speed of the two Porygonmon 2 was not slow.
Porygon 2 at the bottom of the pool turned into a steel-like appearance, while Porygon 2 in the sky with the sun coral on its back was shrouded in a layer of black mist, like a ghost.
Two moves with blind spots naturally failed.
Especially Lotte Kappa, it passed directly through Porygon 2 and Sun Coral, and didn't even hit the "stone" like before.
no doubt.
Last time Lotte Kappa was able to hit the main body of Sun Coral, it was also because the latter hit it deliberately to prevent it from hurting Porygon 2 below.
The bright green light spots absorbed from them also prove that Porygon 2 and Sun Coral in the sky are not phantoms.
"A move to change attributes?"
Mikri reacted quickly. After all, the stinging jellyfish's [mirror attribute] also had a similar effect. What surprised him was that Porygon 2's main body and clones could activate moves at the same time and produce different changes.
as well as……
Accurate judgment of how much damage Kashiwagi can cause to a curse within a certain period of time.
"puff……"
The stinging jellyfish quietly surfaced on the water, its tentacles that were originally like steel whips hung down weakly, and its eyes turned into black circles, as if it had fainted.
"The stinging jellyfish has lost its ability to fight!"
The old housekeeper's voice sounded.
Chance!
Kashiwagi and the two Porygon 2's eyes flashed. When the opponent or oneself exchanges during the double battle, part of the attention will inevitably be transferred to the newly appeared Pokémon.
It won’t take long, but as long as you grab it——
You can defeat your opponent in one fell swoop!
"Double attack! Signal beam!"
He shouted, and Porygon 2 underwater and in mid-air responded simultaneously, attacking the tired Lotte Kappa who was lying on the floating board from two directions.
The bright green beam pierced the water bottom and the air, screaming sharply.
The previous signal beams and discharges were not in vain. Even if Lotte Kappa had parasitic seeds to restore his physical strength, he would not be able to recover that much in a short period of time.
This guy is already very tired. It's not that easy to dodge without the magic space disappearing.
Will it be allowed to use photosynthesis?
Kashiwagi looked at Mikri opposite, only to find that he had already thrown the elf ball, and the flickering white light formed a huge spinning light and shadow in front of Lotte Kappa.
Bang bang!
Amidst the terrifying roar, the signal beam accurately hit the target, and thick white smoke spread out, but it was unable to shake the huge figure of Gyarados.
This guy covered the Lotte Kappa on the floating board like a high wall, and its fierce appearance made the two Porygon 2 who stared at it tremble unconsciously.
【Intimidation】Characteristic!
"Roar--!!"
Gyarados looked up to the sky and let out a roar. The roar and intimidation echoed in the field made Kashiwagi's eardrums hurt. When he subconsciously raised his hand, his heart trembled inexplicably.
not good.
Something is going to happen!
His eyes widened, and then he saw Gyarados suddenly waving its huge tail!
Long!
There was a dull roar in the air.
The bright blue water flow wrapped around the tail of Gyarados, like an upside-down waterfall under the rainy sky, and swung towards Porygon 2 in the air with a shocking momentum!
"Water Tail!"
"Roar--"
Porygon 2 was frightened by the roar that triggered the [Intimidation] characteristic, and was unable to dodge or counterattack for a while.
Kashiwagi gritted his teeth.
Self-regeneration?
No, it’s too late, I can only give it a try——
"Discharge!!"
Zila——
Countless silver snakes flew out from Porygon 2's body. Its eyes squinted across its body sharply, but the next moment, it was violently smashed away by Gyarados' waterfall-like giant tail.
Boom!
With a loud bang, Porygon 2 whirled like a stray arrow and hit the wall of the auditorium. The huge force exploded the wall, forming a spider web-like cracked structure.
And the Porygon 2 embedded in it...has lost its fighting ability.
Another Porygon 2 underwater turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared.
"Porygon 2 can't fight!"
The old housekeeper's voice brought the somewhat stunned Lucia back to her senses.
"Okay, what a quick reversal! Why did Porygon 2 move so slowly just now? The magic space obviously didn't end!"
"Because it was suppressed by the momentum of Gyarados."
Adam's tone was calm, "Weak Pokémon sometimes become unable to move in front of powerful Pokémon, and the [Intimidation] trait makes this situation even more clear.
"This Porygon 2 from Kashiwagi...is it called Porygon 2? It shouldn't have been cultivated by him for too long. It hasn't experienced enough battles. Its flexible calculation ability is very good, but its ability to withstand stress is not excellent."
Powerful Pokémon often have an aura that ordinary Pokémon don't have, and for powerful trainers, applying this aura to battle is also an important step.
The problem with Porygon 2 is not big, I just need to develop more stress resistance in the future... I guess it's because I fought too many smooth battles.
In Pokémon training, sometimes getting beaten is also a very important part.
"Ah - it's such a pity. The first battle could have ended."
Lucia felt sorry for Kashiwagi below, and said: "Now I might lose to my uncle in the first round."
"No."
Adam shook his head, "The first battle is over. Where is the Sun Coral?"
After hearing this, Lucia subconsciously went to look for the Sun Coral where Porygon 2 was, but found nothing until the old butler Sebastian's voice sounded again.
"Lotte Kappa has lost its ability to fight! The gym leader's side has lost! Now let's move on to the second round! Please exchange trainer seats!"
"Eh?"
Lucia looked at the floating board where Lotte Kappa was in surprise, and then found that the floating board was surrounded and guarded by Gyarados. Lotte Kappa fell forward, and at some point there was a gray-white round stone wrapped with vines above his head.
.
Gyarados, on the other hand, stared at the stone particularly angrily.
"Uncle! What happened just now?" Lucia quickly looked at Adam.
Adam replied: "When Gyarados attacked Porygon 2, it quietly dropped the sun coral on its back. At the same time, the lightning it finally released also paralyzed Gyarados to a certain extent, making it unable to take care of Lotte at the same time.
Kappa.
"The Sun Coral side probably woke up when the stinging jellyfish lost its fighting ability. After being thrown by Porygon 2, it immediately used Night Shadow on Lotte Kappa, but Lotte Kappa didn't block it."
Lucia was dumbfounded when she heard this. She looked at the round stone and couldn't help but said, "Are these the tactics Kashiwagi thought of from the beginning?"
"It should be so...but whether it was a coincidence or a well-planned strategy, the fact that Mikri was at a disadvantage is still irrefutable."
Adam must admit that Kashiwagi's talent in the gorgeous competition is very outstanding.
but……
His talent in combat is equally impressive!
Even if the Pokémon used by Mikri were not in the winning lineup, the gym Pokémon bred as former champions are infinitely stronger than the Pokémon in other gyms.
Kashiwa's ability to suppress Mikri proves a lot.
"Seventeen years old...what a pity."
Adam sighed deeply.
If he could travel through time, he swore that he would definitely go to Kashiwagi before he started cultivating Pokémon and take the latter with him to cultivate Pokémon carefully.
In this way, we might be able to gain a disciple who is not inferior to Mikoli, or even surpass Mikoli in the future.
The sad feeling of missing out on the out-of-print rare human rights card pool once again made Adam sad.
And off the field.
Kashiwagi and Mikri each took back their Pokémon and changed their positions, and the battle venue also changed from a large pool to a special venue that combines land and pools.
"Thank you for your hard work. You will definitely gain something from fighting against a powerful trainer. You will be more perfect in the future."
He comforts Porygon 2.
Just as Adam thought, Porygon 2 really didn't play many headwind games. Even in the battle with its "old enemy" Rotom, the latter's sense of oppression was not much higher.
There are indeed one or two Pokémon in the team that are quite fierce, but Porygon 2 knows their natures well and cannot be afraid of them.
The small loss suffered from Gyarados this time will definitely become the cornerstone for further progress in the future.
"You should also take a good rest. I will try my best not to let you work overtime again."
Kashiwagi patted another Poke Ball.
Be reasonable.
In this first round, all the people who got killed were Sun Coral. The output of Porygon 2 was obviously not low, but due to various reasons, it was forced to take advantage of it.
