I, Xiao Mao, want to become a Pokémon Master!

Page 336

A majestic, large canine spirit appeared.

【LV63 Arcanine♂/Elite Four】

Shigeru looked at Tulip's Arcanine, which was about the same size as his own, except that Shigeru's Arcanine was a bit lower in level than the one in front of him.

Tulip patted Arcanine's back, then leaped onto its back and said to the two of them, "Come on up, let Arcanine take us to the beach."

Xiao Mao looked at Yu Jin with some surprise. That set of movements was not something an elderly person could do. He was really afraid that Yu Jin would strain her back.

Especially after seeing so many disrespectful old men in his previous life, who would try to extort money from passersby after falling down, Xiao Mao became somewhat afraid of elderly people causing trouble.

2.9 “Xiao Mao, let’s go up.”

Ashida jumped onto Arcanine's back, and Gary followed suit.

"Growlithe, let's go to the beach," Tulip commanded.

"Ouch~~!"

With a light leap, the Growlithe jumped down the hillside and ran wildly, the sound of the wind faintly audible in its ears. In just about two minutes, it arrived at the beach.

“We’ve arrived. Let’s choose this place as the battlefield,” Tulip said.

Upon hearing this, Gary and Ashida jumped off Arcanine's back, and Tulip also jumped off, taking the opportunity to return Arcanine to its Poké Ball.

Then, Xiao Mao and Yun Jin separated by twenty meters, and a Poké Ball-shaped drone flew over without them noticing.

This drone is the referee, the latest machine referee developed by the Trainers Association, as preparation for future World Championships for all.

495: Tulip, the Palace Guardian

In the current World Championships, excluding the Elite Four and the champion, only those who win the Champion League Tournament and the Gym Leader are eligible to participate, and the total number of participants does not exceed 100.

The organizers also felt there were too few participants, but wanted to increase the number and prepare a ranking system. However, the key was how to accurately rank the participants, so they came up with the idea of ​​using machine referees to supervise the competition. These machine referees have been initially developed and are currently being tested and deployed.

However, as people discovered that Rotom could be integrated into electronic products, the machine referee was directly replaced by the empty Rotom.

"Now... we will begin the pioneering battle between challenger Gary and palace guardian Tulip. Each player may use three Pokémon in this match. The match will end when one player's three Pokémon are all defeated," the referee robot announced.

[Ding! Mission issued: Obtain Spirit Symbol / Rewards: 6 Advanced Magic Candies, 1 Trait Enhancement Stone, 1 Silver Crown, 1 Permanent Skill Learner of Your Choice!]

The system also issued a task.

Xiao Mao noticed that the system has become increasingly intelligent lately, only issuing tasks after the competition rules are finalized.

"So the first Pokémon I'll use is... Come out, Venusaur." Tulip threw out Poké Ball 11.

Baton!

A giant, green bullfrog that walks on four legs makes its appearance.

【LV65 Venusaur (♂)/Elite Four】

Tulip immediately sent out Venusaur, which was of a high level and could be identified as one of Tulip's main Pokémon. In the battle against Ash, Ash used a bugged Tern to defeat it.

"Venusaur... I'll leave it to you then. Go, Scizor!" Gary threw out the Poké Ball.

Baton!

A giant mantis covered in crimson armor makes its appearance.

【LV65 Scizor (male) / Near Legendary】

"Little Gary even has a Scizor, which gives him a significant advantage in terms of attributes," Ashida pondered.

Scizor is a Steel-type Poison-type and has extremely high resistance to Grass-types, making it very suitable for dealing with Venusaur.

Upon detecting that both sides had deployed their Pokémon, the machine referee announced, "Eeady...Go!"

"Venusaur uses Razor Leaf!"

"Scizor, pounce!"

Both sides continued to issue instructions simultaneously.

Tulip played very conservatively, using Razor Leaf, clearly trying to test Scizor's strength.

"Okay!"

Venusaur swayed its body, sending out streaks of leaves from its sides as it rushed forward.

The Scizor pounced forward, transforming into a red phantom as it sped across the beach, ignoring the attacks of the Razor Leafs, which couldn't harm the Scizor in the slightest.

Bah! !

"Bana..."

The Scizor rammed head-on into Venusaur's forehead. The enormous impact forced Venusaur to stagger backward, being forcibly pushed back by brute force.

"what!"

Tulip was horrified, never expecting Scizor to be so powerful, easily defeating Venusaur.

Ashida also looked shocked.

"Bullet Fist!" Xiao Mao shouted in pursuit.

Whoosh! !

Scizor used its speed boost to dash in front of Venusaur, its pincers covered in silver energy, and swung back and forth, unleashing countless bullet-like punches that rained down on Venusaur's head.

Venusaur was so badly hit that it couldn't even open its eyes. The Scizor's fist was so heavy that it felt like it had been crushed by an 80-pound sledgehammer. It tried to move, but found that its body seemed to have lost all feeling.

"Venusaur, use paralysis powder," Tulip hurriedly ordered.

Venusaur's corolla immediately sprayed out a cloud of yellowish-brown powder, which drifted around, but Scizor did not dodge and continued to swing its Bullet Punch.

Seeing the paralyzing powder fall, Shigeru immediately changed his command: "Swallow Return!"

Scizor stopped its Bullet Punch, its body enveloped in wind power, and rammed into Venusaur.

"Bana!"

Venusaur was sent flying several meters away, crashing to the ground with its eyes spinning in circles.

"Venusaur is unable to battle, Scizor wins!" the robot referee announced.

Tulip and Ashida were deeply moved as they watched the defeated Venusaur.

Scizor was too powerful. Its continuous barrage of attacks left Venusaur defenseless. If it weren't for the paralysis powder, Venusaur would have contributed nothing in this battle and would have been a complete waste.

Scizor is also paralyzed at this moment, but it's not a loss to be paralyzed if it can defeat Venusaur.

"What a surprise battle! It seems we can't afford to be careless in dealing with this little Mao," Yu Jin thought to herself.

Tulip retrieved the defeated Venusaur and then sent out a second Pokémon.

"Come out, Arcanine."

Baton!

Tulip sent out the Arcanine that he had just used for transportation. Although he had just used Arcanine for transportation, the little bit of stamina consumption was nothing to Arcanine.

"Ouch~!"

Arcanine enters the scene, immediately exuding its intimidating aura, staring menacingly at Scizor.

The Scizor was also startled. It knew that it was countered by Arcanine and was currently paralyzed, so it was no match for Arcanine.

"return."

Without any hesitation, Gary pulled out a Poké Ball the moment he saw Arcanine and recalled Scizor.

"As expected..." Ashida saw Shigeru recall his Scizor and felt a little regretful, but not surprised.

Ashida wanted to see if Gary could defeat Arcanine with a paralyzed Giant 207 Scizor, even if he couldn't win, a spectacular fight would be fine.

Xiao Mao had no idea that Ashida was thinking this way. If he had known, he would have given her a penny. Is that something a human being would say?

"It's been a while since I've used you, so do your job... Come out, Tyranitar!" Gary said coldly as he casually tossed out a Poké Ball.

Baton!

A Tyrant Tyranitar, covered in green armor, makes its appearance.

【LV71 Tyranitar♂/Near Legendary】

"class!"

Tyranitar looked at Arcanine and murmured softly. The surrounding environment instantly changed, with sand grains soaring into the air. Soon, the entire area was covered by a sandstorm.

This was only because Tyranitar didn't fully activate its ability; otherwise, even the coastline would have been covered in a sandstorm.

"Awoo...!"

Arcanine's mane was blown to one side; if it weren't for its thick fur protecting it, the sand particles in the wind could have caused it some damage.

"What a powerful sandstorm!!"

Yu Jin was also surprised. Although she had never lived in a desert area, she could tell that the sandstorm was quite powerful.

"This is Shigeru's Tyranitar, truly extraordinary," Ashida exclaimed, as it was the first time he had ever seen such a powerful sandstorm.

Even the machine referee was a bit confused, because the sandstorm completely blocked his camera.

496: Shigeru vs. Ukon

"Arcanine, use Playful Attack!"

Tulip had no intention of taking back Arcanine; he even wanted Arcanine to test Tyranitar's strength.

"Awoo!"

Arcanine immediately ran towards Tyranitar, but the closer it got to Tyranitar, the stronger the wind resistance became. But Arcanine is called Arcanine, how could it be stopped by a mere sandstorm?

The fiery energy within his body erupted, breaking through the sandstorm's obstruction, and he rushed towards Tyranitar.

"Explosive Fist".

Tyranitar looked at the charging Arcanine, whose body was already covered in pink energy.

"class!!"

Take this punch!
