Chapter 703: Perseverance Heracross, Curse the Hairy Pig
"Pre-emptive strike, Heracross, use missile needle!!"
At the beginning of the game, Heracross pressed down the big horn of his head, the end lit up with white light, and five energy spikes shot out in a roar.
Uncle Liu remained calm and instructed in a low voice:
"Long-haired pig, freeze drying to block it."
The hill-shaped long-haired pig did not move, lying there quietly.
When the missile needle approached, he raised his head slightly, and a cloud of ice mist suddenly sprayed out from his oval pig-shaped nostrils.
Crunchy...!
The seemingly violent missile needle solidified into a thick ice cone in mid-air.
Bang! Bang!
An ice cone made purely of energy fell from mid-air, making a heavy sound before exploding into ice shards.
"In that case, use rock critical strike!!"
Xiaozhi attacked again.
Similarly, Uncle Liu on the other side also attacked this time.
"Hairy pig, use an ice pick."
Whoosh whoosh!!
Heracross continuously condensed ball-shaped stones in his hands and threw them towards the target.
The long-haired pig raised its head slightly, condensed a series of sharp ice picks, and shot them with a roar.
Both of these moves are continuous attack tricks, with continuous rock blasts and ice picks colliding in the center of the ice arena.
Bang!! Bang! Bang!!
The sound of collisions came one after another.
Suddenly, the special moves on both sides exploded at the same time.
Amidst the roaring sounds, countless rock fragments and ice fragments exploded on the ground, bursts of dust and smoke erupted at the collision point, and the movement was not low.
Evenly matched.
Whoosh!!
Just as the smoke dissipated, a bright and sharp white light suddenly broke through countless fogs and rushed towards the long-haired pig.
A towering horn, unstoppable, penetrating everything!
Millions of dollars!
Under the cover of smoke, Xiaozhi launched a surprise attack!
When the million-dollar horn was less than 2 meters away from the long-haired pig, Liu Bo finally calmed down and shouted:
"Now, use freeze drying!"
In an instant, the extremely cold mist spurted out again, hitting Heracross who was rushing towards him before he had time to dodge.
Crunchy crunchy!!
Ice spreads quickly like a web on Heracross' dark blue carapace.
In less than a few breaths.
Clang.
Heracross, whose wings were frozen, fell helplessly from mid-air.
The whole body was frozen into a big lump of ice.
Only a standing horn shining with white light was exposed outside the ice, still standing unyieldingly.
Freeze drying is a unique technique that causes sudden temperature changes to cause damage through instant freezing.
Even against water-type Pokémon, it is a powerful trick that has an outstanding effect.
"Did Uncle Liu deliberately wait for Xiaozhi to take the bait...?"
Xiaoxia, who was watching nearby, said with a bit of shock.
Precisely due to the nature of quick freezing, freeze drying can only be used at very short distances. If the distance is far, it will have no effect.
"..."
Xiaogang didn't reply, he just looked at Heracross who was frozen into big ice pimples, thoughtfully.
...
On the playing field, after receiving such a blow, the corners of Xiaozhi's mouth slyly raised.
Did you deliberately wait for me to get close before using freeze-drying?
I also deliberately asked you to freeze me into big ice pimples!
"Heracross, show him your power!"
Following Xiaozhi's low drink, Heracross' eyes narrowed in the ice patch.
It did not lose consciousness.
Even on the surface of the faint blue carapace, visible to the naked eye, there is a layer of fiery red energy.
"Hera!!"
Frame bang!!
The next moment, the thick layer of ice covering his body completely burst, and Heracross stood on the field again.
Not only that, the muscles all over its body swelled and were bathed in surging red light, making it look extremely powerful and domineering.
Such a posture is just like...
"Is it the trait of perseverance?!"
Next to her, Xiaoxia blurted out.
Thinking of this, she suddenly slapped her face.
Yes, the triggering conditions for the perseverance trait are not just the burn state, but all abnormal states!
She had been misled by the flame beads before.
"So Heracross was deliberately put into a frozen state to enter the perseverance trait..."
Next to him, Xiaogang touched his beard and nodded secretly.
The perseverance characteristic triggered by the burning state of the flame beads was also a great test for one's own physical strength, and even oneself was burned to death in minutes.
But the frozen state is different.
After being released from the frozen state, the characteristic is triggered with zero damage.
Trivia.
If it is a trick like Flame Wheel that actively releases the frozen state, it actually cannot trigger the perseverance trait. There is a sequence.
But Heracross was frozen first, entered the perseverance trait, and then broke out of the ice with his own brute force... Rounding it off, it was like Ash had a bug.
...
"It's not bad, the little clever guy's operation..."
Uncle Liu nodded, his eyes narrowed and smiling.
"In that case, now it's our turn to attack, Heracross, use the missile needle!!"
Soon, Xiaozhi attacked again.
Entering the perseverance trait, he is full of confidence.
"Hera!!"
I saw Perseverance Heracross lowered his head, his horn glowed, and he shot out several red light missile needles again.
The momentum is much stronger than before!
This time, even the freeze-drying of the long-haired pigs merely froze them into ice picks, but the power was not eliminated.
Boom! Bang!!!
The missile needle turned into several red light ice picks, which hit the long-haired pig hard, and finally exploded violently.
"Wu..."
Even with the thick body of the long-haired pig, it couldn't help but fall backwards on the ice, leaving a scratch on the ice.
Wait until the long-haired pig comes to his senses and looks at the target.
Boom whoosh!!
What caught his eye was an independent giant horn bathed in turbulent red, quickly approaching him.
Heracross used the Million Horn again!!
Can't escape.
Seeing this, Uncle Liu quickly gave instructions:
"Long-haired pig, use curse."
As soon as he finished speaking, a gloomy black ghostly aura covered the brown fur of the long-haired pig.
Several rays of light with attributes increasing and decreasing appeared on its body at the same time.
Bang Bang!!
The next moment, Heracross's big horn slammed into this unmoving mountain of flesh.
The powerful giant horn directly pushed the long-haired pig several meters away on the ice, almost to the edge of the arena.
It's just that the long-haired pig has not lost its fighting ability and is still lying on the ice.
The long mane covers his face, and his expression is completely invisible.
...
"Hera..."
Heracross fell down and took a breather on the ice.
"Damn it, can even Perseverance·Million Horns be able to stop it? It's so meaty...!"
Xiaozhi frowned and clenched his fists.
In his hand, he took out the illustrated book and wanted to know where this "curse" trick came from.
"Didi. The curse's special move will change its effect according to the Pokémon's attributes."
"When the Pokémon is a ghost Pokémon, it will continue to cause damage to the enemy at the cost of sacrificing half of its own physical strength."
"When the Pokémon is a non-ghost Pokémon, it will sacrifice its speed and increase its attack power and defense."
