Perhaps because of the geographical location of Yinyu City, the number of trainers Populus euphratica encountered gradually increased on the way to this city.
They fought by the river, on the grass, in the forest, and traces of their battles could be seen everywhere.
For Hu Yang, these trainers were all valuable experience points. In addition, he was not in a hurry, so he stopped and directed Chirulian and Axiodon to fight with these trainers.
Battle.
Most of the trainers who have made it this far are out of the category of new trainers, and many of them have already collected three or four gym badges.
From the very beginning of the battle, Hu Yang could feel their commanding abilities that were different from those of new trainers, as well as the strength displayed by the Pokémon in their hands.
Although the battle was a bit thrilling, the Pokémon still fell one after another under the steady attack of Axetooth.
After defeating the opponent, Axetooth fell to the ground due to exhaustion.
Three in a row!
Although the Axetooth dragon lost its fighting ability in the end, it did very well.
Populus euphratica ran to it, gave it a thumbs up, and said, "It's awesome!"
"Nata..." The Axetooth Dragon made a weak cry.
"Let's have a good sleep next!"
Populus euphratica touched the head of the Axetooth Dragon, applied wound medicine to it, and poured a bottle of moo milk into it to calm the mind, and then put it back into the elf ball to let it rest.
Populus euphratica looked at the Pokémon ball of Axetooth.
His little dragon's personality has undergone great changes since it evolved.
The little dragon that used to be coquettish and easily deceived has disappeared in the long river of time, and has been replaced by a sub-adult dragon that is honest, serious, and meticulous in handling things.
In the past, he could still hold the Fang, but now he can hardly hold the Axetooth dragon. When it evolves into a dual-axe dragon, their roles may have to be reversed.
"That Axetooth of yours is very powerful." Trainer Yu Shi said with his arms crossed.
Hu Yang withdrew his gaze from the elf ball and said: "Your Lotte Kappa is also very strong."
Perhaps the opponent also had some thoughts on increasing experience for Pokémon through battles, so the two Pokémon sent out at the beginning were not very strong.
Because of this, Axiodon was able to defeat them and face Lotte Kappa in the third round.
You Shi grinned, with excited eyes in his eyes, and said: "You are a good opponent, so next, I will take it seriously!"
As soon as the words fell, the red and white balls were thrown into the sky.
A white light flashed, and an iron palm warrior appeared in front of the young man.
Seeing this, Hu Yang also sent out his second Pokémon, Kirulian.
Kirulian and Iron Palm Rikishi stood at opposite ends of the battlefield, looking at each other from afar.
Ironpaw, a fighting Pokémon, is two and a half meters tall and has a huge body, which is in sharp contrast to the smaller Kirulian.
Perhaps for this reason, Chirulian looked a little worried before the battle began.
It looked back at Populus euphratica and said: "Qilu..."
Hu Yang thought it was afraid of the Iron Palm Warrior, so he comforted him: "Do you still remember the little game we played before?"
He used to play a small game of dodging stones with Kirulian.
He threw stones at Chirulian, and Chirulian dodged. In this way, he trained its magical skill of "quick avoidance".
Hearing this, Chirulian nodded firmly: "Chiru!"
"Treat this battle as a small game we are playing, and treat the opponent's attacks as stones thrown by me. There will be no problem." Hu Yang said.
The fighting type is twice as weak as a super power, which means that every attack made by Kirulian will have a significant effect on it.
"Chiru!" Chirulian turned her head and focused on the battle with the Iron Palm warrior.
Seeing this, Populus euphratica stopped talking.
The battle officially began, and Yu Shi took the lead in launching the attack: "Iron Palm Rikishi, use Rock Crash!"
After the order was given, the Iron Palm warrior thrust his big hands into the ground, and the energy of rock properties wrapped around the soil to form a huge stone.
The Iron Palm warrior exerted force with both hands, raised the rock above his head, and smashed it towards Kirulian.
"Avoid it." Hu Yang looked at this scene and ordered calmly.
The rockslide was essentially the same as the small stone he threw, the only difference was the size.
At this time, you can easily avoid it with just a simple teleportation.
Qilulian had dodged so many stones he threw, but this time, Hu Yang believed that it could still do it.
Sure enough, facing the rock, Chirulian's body disappeared from the place and appeared on the other side.
"Strengthen your thoughts." Hu Yang continued to order.
The moment Chirulian landed, a blue light flashed in her eyes, and her superpower thought waves turned into reality and rushed towards the Iron Palm Warrior.
The Iron Palm Warrior is very powerful, but the price of such great power is heavy speed.
The mental force hit successfully, and the Iron Palm warrior staggered slightly, but quickly regained his balance and rushed towards Kirulian.
Yu Shi's counterattack followed closely: "Use Slap Down!"
Populus euphratica: "Avoid it!"
A rich ghost light appeared on the big palm of the Iron Palm Warrior. As the distance between the two became closer and closer, it raised its right hand high, but at the moment it was about to fall, Chirulian's figure Disappeared again.
"Strengthen your thoughts!" Hu Yang continued to order.
Kirulian, who teleported behind Iron Palm Rikishi, used her mental power attack again.
Blue light flashed, and the air near the iron palm warrior's huge body was distorted by the strong mental force.
Being hit by two restraining moves in a row, even the strong Iron Palm warrior couldn't help showing a pained expression.
Yuju looked at this scene. He didn't panic when facing the Pokémon's defeat, but seemed to become more and more calm.
This is a necessary condition for a qualified trainer. The more you reach this point, the less likely you are to panic. Instead, you must think carefully about countermeasures and launch a counterattack.
Yu Shi squinted his eyes. He knew very well that if he continued to attack like he just did, the Iron Palm Rikishi's attacks would still be avoided by teleportation.
This is the main reason why some trainers don't want to fight super-powered Pokémon.
However, although it is difficult to fight, it is not completely impossible.
An idea flashed in Yu Shi's mind and he directly ordered: "Iron Palm Warrior, blow away!"
Hearing this order from the other party, Hu Yang was stunned for a moment.
Blow away: A general move, its effect in the game is to blow away the opponent, forcing the reserve Pokémon to play. If the opponent is a wild Pokémon, the battle will end directly.
So, what is its effect in reality?
on the field.
The Iron Palm Rikishi is like a sumo wrestler, slamming his right leg on the ground and clasping his palms together with a "snap" sound.
An invisible strong wind surged out from it and swept in all directions.
Facing this move, Kirulian has no way to avoid it like a stone. No matter where it teleports, it will be blown away.
The strong wind quickly swept over Kirulian, who was unable to escape.
This iron palm warrior showed Populus euphratica the effect of flying in reality - the strong wind carried Chirulian and blew it backwards until it hit a big tree before stopping.
Kirulian was injured by the impact and fell from the tree trunk to the ground. At the same time, the iron palm warrior was already running towards it.
Hu Yang secretly thought something bad and quickly ordered: "Stand up and use teleportation to avoid it!"
Hearing his voice, You Shi quickly said: "Don't give it a chance, use Fa Jin!"
The command was given at the same time, and the Iron Palm warrior made a forward push with both hands while running.
A shock wave shot out from its palm, hitting Kirulian the moment she stood up, and hit the tree behind her.
Lost. Seeing this scene, Hu Yang knew that he had no chance.
The Iron Palm warrior had already arrived at Chirulian's side. He raised his right palm high and used an evil attribute move to knock Chirulian down.
Kirulian lost her ability to fight on the spot.
The battle is over.
Hu Yang quickly ran towards Kirulian, picked it up, took out Charizard's elf ball, and asked it to help Kirulian heal.
Soon, Chilulian opened his eyes, and there was a trace of discouragement and depression on its little face: "Chilu..."
"It doesn't matter." Hu Yang touched its head and comforted: "This is just an ordinary battle. It doesn't matter if you lose. Don't worry too much."
Before evolving into Gardevoir, both Kirulian and Laluras were weak in battle.
Like Magikarp, once it evolves to the final stage, its strength will undergo earth-shaking changes.
"Chilu..."
Kirulian didn't seem to be comforted.
Seeing this, Hu Yang opened his mouth. Just when he was about to say something more, Chilulian's body suddenly lit up with a rich white light.
"That's...evolution?"
Yu Shi, the trainer of Iron Palm Rikishi, came over and happened to see this scene and asked.
"Yes." Hu Yang nodded. Although he was prepared for Chilulian's evolution, he was still a little surprised by her evolution so quickly.
After all, he just made a plan yesterday to have Chirulian evolve into a Gardevoir as soon as possible...
Chirulian's figure changed rapidly in the white light, but suddenly, Chirulian, who was in an evolving state, let out a cry of pain.
Immediately afterwards, as if someone pressed the b button to cancel evolution, the evolutionary light surrounding it quickly dissipated, revealing Kirulian inside.
This means that Kirulian's evolution has failed...
Chirulian, whose evolution was interrupted, looked in pain. It opened its eyes and glanced at Populus euphratica, and after letting out a weak cry of "Chiru", it fell into a coma.
