Chapter 227 Who Wants to Play a Game of Weather with You? (76k)

Chapter 227 Who is trying to steal the weather with you? (7.6k)

"Wow, Teacher Gu's judgment was so accurate. The first thing Menus did after appearing was to pray for rain. However, could his rain prayer be faster than the extremely skilled Aurora Curtain mastered by Bing Jiuwei? "

In the studio, the female commentator in white stockings looked at Menas who immediately released her prayer for rain as soon as she came on the stage, with a look of amazement on her face.

Gurusha, who appeared in the live broadcast room in the form of a holographic projection, nodded slightly and continued: "It should be no problem. I am very confident in the speed of Menas's moves. Also, can you please don't call me Teacher Gu? , my surname is not Gu"

The female commentator who was corrected stuck out her tongue cutely and said apologetically: "Sorry, sorry, I asked Teacher Guru to be right again. Before the Aurora Curtain of Ice Nine Tails was released, the rain covered the field before it lasted. How long is the ice and snow? Xia Chen used the most direct method to cut off the possibility of Ice Nine Tails releasing the aurora curtain. Then the next step should be a weather battle between the two sides. "

Guru Xia looked helpless and said: "No, Wang Ding may think so, but Xia Chen definitely won't. There is a high probability that Menas will spray water directly while it is still raining, and there is a small probability of using Butterfly Dance. Also, My surname is not Guru, forget it, it’s up to you.”

"It's really a water spray! Although Ice Nine Tails is not weak to water, under the rain, the water spray power used by Menas at full state is still extraordinary. Ice Nine Tails feels uncomfortable now! Teacher Gulu, where are you? It’s a commentary, it’s a prophecy!”

Guru Xia explained: "It's not a prophecy, I just know Xia Chen well enough. His idea is very simple. Under the rainy weather, if Ice Nine Tails wants to open the Aurora Curtain, they need to use two moves in a row. So this is different from directly What's the difference between using a reflective wall and a light wall? Even including the weather-based move [Snow Scene], it will take longer. Moreover, Xia Chen's current three main elves are all special attackers, and the effect of Aurora Screen is different from that of light. Like a wall, why stop her from opening? "

"It seems that Xia Chen has studied Wang Ding very thoroughly, but Wang Ding seems to be a little clueless. Now that the snow is coming, Teacher Gulu, do you think he will let Ice Nine Tails continue to use the Aurora Curtain?"

Guru Xia pondered slightly and said: "There is a high probability that it will happen. Under the sunk cost, normal people's thoughts at this time will be that the snow days are open, and it will be a waste if the aurora curtain is not opened. And Xia Chen, although there are no more rain days, But it’s entirely possible to let Menas continue to spray water. If he, for that matter, asks for rain again, Wang Ding’s mentality will probably collapse.”

"Haha, I understand what you mean. Let's come and see the field. Oh, it's really raining. This Xia Chen is so bad. The director is also very bad. He showed Wang Ding the scene at this moment. His face is very Hong, I don’t know if Gao Yuanhong is angry or not.”

Gurusha shook his head gently, "In the battle between elves, anger is the most useless thing. If he is more rational, it will be okay to fight Menas in the rain. Anyway, the improved physical defense against ice elves in snowy weather will not matter in this battle." It doesn’t have any effect, it’s just a waste of the Tundra Bear’s [Snow Shaking] trait.”

"Teacher Gulu's analysis makes sense, but after all, we are not fighting on the field. Let's see what Wang Ding will choose. Stop it! Wang Ding did not continue to let Bing Jiuwei use Snow Sky, he replaced it with Bodhidharma Baboon!"

Guru Xia pondered: "It's an unwise choice. Wang Ding must have figured it out. The Galar Dharma Baboon with high physical attack is the most suitable to fight Menas, but the water element is resistant to ice and icicle crash." The signature moves are no longer available. Let’s see if there are other moves that the Dharma Baboon can use. Also, the influence of the Dharma Baboon’s characteristics on the playing style is also very important.”

"Ah, the characteristic of this Bodhidharma baboon is [Dharma mode]. For those who don't know this elf, please explain that this feature allows the Bodhidharma baboon to transform into the Bodhidharma mode when its vitality drops to about half. , the attributes change to dual attributes of ice and fire, and the attack power and speed will be greatly improved."

During the explanation introduction, Xia Chen had already taken advantage of the gap between his opponents to exchange elves to launch an attack.

"Dharma Baboon hasn't moved yet. Menas takes action first, spraying water again on a rainy day. Wow, Wang Ding is too difficult to fight. But fortunately, the Dharma mode is not activated, which means that the vitality is still healthy. Now The most important thing is to consume the state of Menas, otherwise who can bear it if it keeps spraying water?"

Looking at the white light on the arm of the Bodhidharma baboon on the field, Gurusha said thoughtfully, "The Bodhidharma baboon has taken action, is it an arm hammer? It seems that Wang Ding is going to make a desperate move."

…………

On the battlefield, Wang Ding, who had been led by Xia Chen, finally started to fight back, and the volume of the female commentator unconsciously increased.

"The Damo baboon rushed over with a powerful and heavy fist. He was very fast and hit with the arm hammer! Judging from Menas's reaction, the damage was still considerable, but the problem is that the arm hammer move, It has the side effect of slowing down your own speed. What do you think, Teacher Gulu?"

Gurusha then said: "This speed is nothing. Bodhidharma baboons will be able to activate Bodhidharma mode immediately, and the lost speed can be made up by then. It is better than using brute force to reduce attack power and losing the start. After that, player Wang Ding played more and more calmly, and Menas' response was hot water. Did Xia Chen want to bet on a burn effect? ​​"

"Hot water hit Daruma Baboon head-on, unfortunately, it didn't cause burns, but instead triggered Daruma Baboon's Daruma Mode. Xia Chen is in trouble now. As Guru said, after Daruma Baboon transformed, his speed did not decrease but increased. With his long arms supporting the ground, he made a big leap every time he moved. After two jumps, Daruma Baboon had already circled behind Milotic. He was going to use brute force! Milotic was not afraid at all, and used Surf to respond before he could turn around! Guru, would it be better if Xia Chen changed his Pokémon in this situation?"

Guru Xia smiled faintly, "No, Xia Chen's choice is the best solution. Milotic is the only one in the team who can enjoy the bonus of rainy days. Most importantly, only he can win the battle of weather. If Xia Chen changed his Pokémon, Wang Ding would definitely replace him with Ice Nine Tails and change the weather to snowy days to re-arrange the layout. At this time, it would be too late for Xia Chen to replace Milotic with rain."

The words were said in one breath. More, Guluxia paused and continued: "Instead of doing this, it is better to take advantage of the rain to defeat the opponent's output core Daruma Baboon directly. And Wang Ding also thought so. If Daruma Baboon can defeat Milotic without falling, the situation can be reversed. But Wang Ding seems to have overlooked an important issue. Daruma Baboon in Daruma mode has both ice and fire attributes that are restrained by the water system."

"So that's it. It's worthy of being Teacher Guru. The analysis is too thorough. Let's return to the field. Daruma Baboon is still fighting for his life, and it's brute force again. Milotic also locked Surf and responded strongly. The two elves have been fighting crazy."

"The endless fight finally ended, and Daruma Baboon still fell. With the help of attribute restraint and rain, Milotic steadily defeated Wang Ding's ace elf Daruma Baboon. Then, will the battle situation develop as Teacher Guru predicted?"

…………

The answer is yes.

Daruma Baboon fell and Milotic still stood on the field, which means that the initiative of the weather is still in Xia Chen's hands.

As expected, Ice Ninetails came back on the field, and the weather changed from rain to snow. This time, Ice Ninetails learned its lesson and did not use the Aurora Curtain, but directly fired a magic flash.

But Ice Ninetails' special attack was of poor strength, and Milotic was of monster durability.

Milotic responded with water cannon without any fear. After a fight, Wang Ding suddenly realized that if he continued to fight like this, Ice Ninetails would probably repeat the mistakes of Daruma Baboon.

So he quickly replaced the Tundra Bear, and with the speed increased by the [Snow Throwing] characteristic, he finally got rid of the extremely troublesome Milotic after several fights.

And Milotic did not forget to rewrite the weather to rainy before falling, which disgusted the opponent again.

In this battle, Milotic made Wang Ding's snow team miserable with its key feature of faster release speed.

Milotic completed his mission successfully, and Gardevoir was responsible for finishing after him.

Because the rain reduces the damage of fire-type moves, Gardevoir is not suitable for using magic flames to restrain the opponent.

But there is no need to restrain, with the talent of [Psychic Enhancement], there is no difference between using Psychic-type moves and restraining.

First, use instant movement to distance yourself from the Tundra Bear that wants to pounce on you, and then Gardevoir sends a strong mental thought.

The Tundra Bear, which has lost the speed enhancement of the snowy day, can only follow Gardevoir in vain and be kited clumsily.

Wang Ding has no choice but to replace the Ice Nine-Tail to re-activate the snowy day.

However, Gardevoir doesn't care whether you open the snowy day or use the Aurora Curtain.

While the opponent changes the Pokémon, meditate directly to strengthen, implementing the idea of ​​"as long as my output is high enough, no matter how hard you are, it's useless."

The intensity of meditation enhanced by emotional energy is terrible, and there is no difference between opening the Aurora Curtain of Ice Nine-Tail and not opening it.

If Gardevoir didn't know how to counter Ice Nine-Tail's steel-type moves four times, this beautiful nine-tailed fox, as crystal clear as ice and snow, would definitely not be able to withstand a single move.

But even so, Ice Nine-Tail couldn't survive Gardevoir's second mental power.

And the last tundra bear was just a prediction of the future.

…

"The last elf tundra bear of player Wang Ding fell, which also means the end of the game. Congratulations to Xia Chen for defeating Wang Ding with a score of 3:1 and advancing to the quarterfinals! Thank you to both players for presenting us with this wonderful game. Thank you to teacher Guluxia for the wonderful commentary. Teacher Gulu, can you say a few more words?"

In the studio, Guluxia's holographic projection pondered for a moment, and then seriously concluded: "It was a very exciting game. Both players had outstanding performances. Even the defeated Wang Ding, when he was at a disadvantage, his judgment of the situation and his spirit of giving it a go were also very outstanding. As for Xia Chen, play normally. I hope he can go further in the next game."

After a pause, Guluxia finally added: "Of course, I still hope he can come to Shuangmo Mountain to play when he is free."

After making the final invitation for personal gain, Guluxia hung up the connection, and the holographic image went out.

On the battlefield, the staff and the elves began to clean up the battlefield.

The next game is about to begin.

…………

Today's round of 16-to-8 has only eight matches. Even if the interval between two matches is extended to half an hour, the entire round of matches will be over before 5 pm.

Then came the official list of the top eight.

The four people in the upper half of the competition area, in addition to Xia Chen's acquaintances Hu Yang and Chi Hong, there are Jiang Pei, whom he defeated in the preliminaries, and another dojo inheritor.

The lower half of the competition where Xia Chen is located is Xia Chen, Lu Weiyu and Bai Mu, two favorites to win the championship, and a student from Nandu University.

Most of the contestants in the competition are representatives of major universities, but only three of the top eight are academic trainers, which is enough to show the low competitiveness of the academic school.

But there is no way. The most basic thing about Pokémon battles is the accumulation of resources when cultivating Pokémon.

In this regard, the "second generation of the gym" with a long history has too much advantage.

Xia Chen's opponent in the quarterfinals is Lu Weiyu, and his luck is not very good.

But in fact, being in the death half, it is a high probability event to meet Lu Weiyu or Bai Mu at this stage. There is nothing to complain about, and Xia Chen has been prepared.

Lu Weiyu from Yunze Gym's main Pokémon are Frog, Swampert, and Lotte.

There is no need to analyze these three Pokémon too much, Frog with rain characteristics, Lotte who swims freely, and Swampert, a powerful hitter.

A very standard rainy day team.

The further he played, the more Xia Chen could feel that the number of such weather tactical teams was increasing.

Like before, he had already fought against the Sandstorm Team and the Snow Team, and this round was the Rain Team. Among the four weather teams, only the Sunny Team remained.

Although it was quite a coincidence, it was actually normal.

Weather tactics are high in intensity, the cultivation cycle is not long, and the command difficulty is moderate, which is very suitable for young trainers to cultivate.

In addition, these "second-generation gyms" all come from long-standing gyms or dojos, and have their own cultivation system, so the situation of weather hegemony has been around for a long time.

However, looking at the world, very few single weather teams can become champions, or even reach the top of the world.

In recent years, the powerful champions that are familiar to everyone, such as Adek, Dandi, and even Sirona, do not have a fixed tactical system, but make adjustments based on the situation of the opponent.

The reason is still the disadvantages brought by the single tactic.

The cultivation and command of elves are simple, but what follows is the research and cracking of the opponent.

Reality is not the rock-paper-scissors in the game.

Change is the most attractive and passionate core of the Pokémon battle.

So even when facing Lu Weiyu, whose overall strength is one level higher than his, Xia Chen did not feel any pressure or nervousness.

Because he has sufficient confidence in Senbu and Milotic.

…………

December 21, the quarterfinals day of the Donghuang Youth Trainer Competition.

At this point in the competition, each of the four games today can be said to be full of highlights and suspense, and no one dares to guarantee which player can advance steadily.

Of course, even so, the audience must have players who are optimistic and players who are not optimistic.

In comparison, the strength gap between the two games in the lower half of the competition area may be slightly larger.

Especially the match between Lu Weiyu from Yunze Gym and Xia Chen from Shangjing University.

The two of them are basically the strongest in the quarterfinals.

Even if Doudou pigeons are loyal, few people really think that Xia Chen can make it to the quarterfinals in this competition before the game.

The most important thing is that Xia Chen's debut time is too short.

In a year and a half, at the age of less than 18, what level can a normal trainer reach?

Even if an excellent trainer can be admitted to the trainer department of Shangjing University, which only recruits two or three hundred people from hundreds of thousands of fresh graduates, at this time, the strength is just at the senior level.

However, Xia Chen broke into the quarterfinals of the Donghuang Youth Competition, which has an elite level threshold!

This growth rate is almost the same as that of Shirona in the same period.

However, in the quarterfinals, he met Lu Weiyu, the favorite to win this competition, and Xia Chen's miracle road should come to an end.

This is the view of most people before the game started.

The most intuitive thing can be seen from the odds of Xia Chen in the entertainment gambling opened by the P station.

1:3.8!

This means that if you bet ten coins on Xia Chen to win, you can get a return of 38 coins. Of course, the more likely scenario is that you will lose all your money.

As for why the audience is so pessimistic about Xia Chen, it is because his opponent, Lu Weiyu, is too strong.

Anyone who has played in Yunze Gym knows that since this summer, half of the gym challenges have been fought by the old gym leader's young daughter.

This behavior is not illegal, but there is a prerequisite, the "acting gym leader" needs to reach the elite level of one star.

This level does not only require one elite one-star Pokémon, but three.

What's more terrifying is that she has been "joining the army for her mother" since August, which means that Lu Weiyu has reached the elite level of one star for more than four months.

After a few months of growth, no one was surprised that her giant Swampert reached the elite level of two stars.

And Xia Chen. Now search for his information on the official website of the Trainer Association, it is still the senior trainer certificate at the beginning of the year.

It is a miracle to enter the elite level now, and there is still a star behind the elite level?

Even if Shirona comes, it is impossible!

So in the eyes of most people, Xia Chen is in danger in this game.

…………

Xia Chen and Lu Weiyu's battle is in the second game.

The first match was between Bai Mu from Fengdu Dojo and Cheng Shuru from Nandu University.

There was no suspense. Bai Mu, another favorite to win the championship, defeated Cheng Shuru with a score of 3:1 and entered the semi-finals first.

After a half-hour break, the second match, Xia Chen and Lu Weiyu, entered the preparation stage.

In the studio.

Today's female commentator is wearing neither black stockings nor white stockings, but bare feet. Her brittle calves are arranged gracefully like two smooth and slender lotus roots, which makes the audience in the live broadcast room unwilling to switch even during the break. channel.

The female commentator picked up the fire-spotted cat in her arms and shook its hand to greet the audience. The cat was forced to show a perfunctory smile.

"Welcome back to the game. I am Lulu, the commentator for this game. Next is the battle between Lu Weiyu and Xia Chen. First of all, let's connect with our guest in this game. Who is this guest? I guarantee that you will never guess it. !”

It's okay if I don't say this. Once I say it, it immediately arouses the curiosity of the audience.

"Child, are you still guessing?"

"Can't guess? It can't be Nana, right?"

"Nana? Which Nana? Sirona? Lurina? Nazi? Dora Sena?"

"On the contrary, I think it may not be these beautiful sisters, but a bad old man, such as Dr. Omu!"

The speculation and noise of the barrage did not last long, and soon, the holographic projection of the guests appeared in the studio.

With exquisite makeup, tall figure, and elegant temperament, the guest of honor is none other than Carlos star Karuni!

There was a burst of cheers at the barrage. None of them had guessed Karuni's arrival.

"Damn it, it's actually Karuni? Weren't we all gym leaders before? Why did you suddenly invite a celebrity?"

"Hot knowledge, during the years when Kaluni debuted, she and Sirona were called twins. In the first two years, they had gym-level strength. Last month, they won the championship in Miare."

"Didn't Karuni stop acting for almost a year? Why did she suddenly become a guest in such a competition?"

“The event organizer is awesome!! (Cheers from Karuni’s loyal fans)”

…………

The intensive barrage confirmed one thing. Even though she has been out of action for nearly a year, her popularity and popularity are still top-notch.

The female commentator began to interact with the guests.

"Teacher Kaluni, I'm glad to see you in the studio. I also congratulate you on winning the championship of Miare Conference. Of course, I also wish you success in next year's Championship Challenge!"

Kaluni smiled reservedly and replied: "Thank you for your blessing. I am also very happy to be a guest of this competition that brings together talents, especially this competition with friends I have not seen for a long time."

The explainer asked, "Oh? Are you talking about player Xia Chen?"

Anyone who paid attention to the incident of Yveltal's awakening at the beginning of the year knows that it was Karuni who was in the Psychedelic Forest with Xia Chen at the time, and the two had a "comradeship" for a period of time.

Karuni didn't shy away, she smiled and nodded, "Yes, when I met him, he was still Gardevoir or Lalulas, but now he is a Gardevoir who can stand on his own. I don't know if it's because time flies too fast or because He grew up too fast."

The commentator said: "Maybe it's both. Most viewers didn't expect that such a young Xia Chen could reach this far in the competition."

The conversation changed and the commentator asked: "But judging from the support rate, it seems that everyone is not optimistic about Xia Chen's game. What do you think?"

Kaluni said without thinking, "Really? I think Xia Chen can win."

The commentator was surprised, "Oh? Does Miss Karuni have so much confidence in player Xia Chen?"

Karuni smiled and said nothing.

While chatting, Xia Chen and Lu Weiyu were already standing on the battlefield, and the war was about to break out.

The commentators also brought the chatter back into the game.

"Okay, the game is about to begin, let's see how both players can perform in this game!"

…………

On the battlefield, Xia Chen and Lu Weiyu looked at each other quietly, waiting for the game to start.

Both of them are from Zhijiang. Although they didn't know each other before this game, Lu Weiyu was still very interested in Xia Chen, a fellow countryman who was quite popular.

Xia Chen also looked at this graceful girl who looked like a Jiangnan water town.

From the appearance, it is completely unimaginable that she will be a demon-like existence in this competition.

However, neither of them had the habit of talking trash before a game, and time passed silently while looking at each other.

With the referee's whistle, two Poké Balls flashed through the air, and the game officially began.

"Come out, mosquito-repellent frog king!"

"The decision is yours, Gardevoir!"

White light flashed, and the starting elves of both sides appeared on the battlefield.

"Oh? Is Xia Chen's starting elf actually Gardevoir instead of Menas?"

The commentator was a little surprised. Before the game, most people predicted that Xia Chen would choose to let Menas take advantage of the opponent's rainy day. Unexpectedly, Xia Chen's starting elf was Gardevoir.

The commentator joked: "Do you have anything to say about Gardevoir starting against Team Rainy Day? Isn't it because player Xia Chen knew that today's guest is Miss Karuni and paid special tribute?"

Karuni's Gardevoir is not only extremely powerful, but also acts with her in many dramas, making her the most famous Gardevoir in the world.

Gardevoir expert Karuni also frowned slightly to express confusion, "I don't know, maybe it's because Gardevoir knows 100,000 volts, and Xia Chen thinks it's easier to fight, right?"

This is a reasonable reason, but Xia Chen has played so many games, and both the commentators and the audience know that he is particularly good at "digging holes" in games. Maybe this is a trap prepared for his opponent.

But now, no one can guess Xia Chen's intentions.

On the field, after the elves from both sides came on the field, light rain began to fall from the sky.

Not long after, the rain became heavier, with large raindrops pouring on the venue, and a [rainy day] had already formed.

It is the change brought about by the characteristics of Mosquito Repellent Frog King [rainfall].

Before the raindrops fell, two crisp command sounds sounded on the battlefield.

"Mosquito-repellent frog king, water cannon!"

"Gardevoir, one hundred thousand volts!"

The opening scene was a gunpowder-filled battle of moves, and the extremely fast pace of the battle instantly cheered up the audience.

The stronger mosquito-repellent frog king sprayed out the water cannon first, and the fierce water flow was driven straight and quickly towards Gardevoir under the pressure of high pressure.

Not to be outdone, Gardevoir responded with a bright yellow thunder snake emerging from the red horn on his chest.

After a brief stalemate, the powerful water column overwhelmed the Razer and moved in the direction of Gardevoir.

Gardevoir was determined to press back, and used his superpower to control his body to move slightly, dodging the fierce water flow that he could not withstand.

…………

"Both sides are testing in the beginning, but after all, the strength gap is there, and Gardevoir seems to be no match for the Mosquito-Repellent Frog King."

Karuni nodded in agreement with the explanation, "This mosquito-repellent frog king is quite well-bred. It not only exists as a weather expert, but if the water cannon is better than a hundred thousand volts, rainy weather factors must also be considered. In fact, Gardevoir's The output is not weak. After knowing the general strength of the two elves, Xia Chen should attack. "

Before Kaluni finished speaking, the situation on the field had already changed.

However, it was not Xia Chen who attacked first, but Lu Weiyu.

"Mosquito-repellent frog king, turbid current!"

Under the rainy weather, the release speed of all water-type moves seemed to be accelerated. Not two seconds after Lu Weiyu's command ended, a group of filth in front of the Mosquito Frog Emperor turned into turbid water and rushed in the direction of Gardevoir. Come.

The release pattern of Turbid Current's moves is very similar to that of surfing, in that it turns water energy into waves to attack the opponent.

However, just like its name, the turbid water is even more filthy.

Therefore, this move has the additional effect of having a 30% chance of reducing the opponent's hit rate.

Although the waves of the turbid current are not traveling very fast, their attack range is very large. With Gardevoir's speed, it is difficult to avoid without teleportation.

"But this turbid current is what Lu Weiyu used to force Gardevoir to teleport for the first time. So, will Xia Chen let Gardevoir surrender teleportation so easily?"

The answer has been revealed in the analysis of the commentary.

The fluctuations of super energy disappeared in a flash, and in the next moment, Gardevoir appeared beside the Mosquito-Incense Frog King, followed closely by a wave of one hundred thousand volts!

The thunder snake composed of bright yellow lightning accurately hit the mosquito-repellent frog king who was very close at hand. Under the heavy rain, small electric currents rushed wildly around the big green frog, which looked quite scary.

Even so, Lu Weiyu was not worried, but instead had a slight smile on her lips.

Because this is the scene she wants to see most.

…………

"Xia Chen's style of play in this game is so fierce. Although this has caused a lot of damage to the Mosquito Frog King, Gardevoir itself is also in danger. Miss Kaluni, what do you think?"

Facing the commentator's question, Karuni nodded solemnly, "The energy consumption of releasing two moves at the same time is already large, let alone a move like teleportation. Gardevoir's behavior is also It’s so un-Xia Chen.”

Such a fighting style leaves no room for Gardevoir to retreat. It relies entirely on recklessness, and is far different from Xia Chen's step-by-step battle command rhythm.

However, there is another possibility.

Kaluni added in her heart, unless Xia Chen's "recklessness" was also part of his plan.

I recommend a friend's book, "We're already in the cyber era, are we still a traditional villain?" 》
