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

Page 337

Snapped! !

boom! !

Tyranitar unleashed a punch, creating a cracking sound in the air.

A powerful, explosive punch landed on Arcanine's head, sending it flying several meters away, leaving four long scratches on the ground.

"The...the champion's aura...!"

Seeing Tyranitar knock Arcanine back with a single punch, Ashida was certain that Gary's Tyranitar had reached Champion level and could compete with the Champion's main Pokémon.

This shows that Gary didn't lie to him; this Tyranitar's strength is about the same as Gary's Blastoise.

[Blastoise: (?he?╬)! What do you mean, almost? I helped Blue catch Tyranitar.]

"Awoo...!"

The Arcanine, having been knocked back, immediately stood up and barked wildly at Tyranitar, seemingly about to attack. However, it was clear that Arcanine was also afraid, as it sensed Tyranitar's terrifying and overwhelming strength.

"Arcanine, come back and rest." Gary was waiting for Umberto to continue its attack, but Umberto simply took out a Poké Ball and captured Arcanine.

Xiao Mao was disdainful.

Is it necessary to take it back?

Even if you send out other Pokémon, they still won't be a match for Tyranitar. You might as well have a good fight, finish it quickly, and go home to wash up and go to bed.

"Brown, you're quite the unexpected challenger. Your Tyranitar is really strong," Tulip commented.

“Yes, Tyranitar is one of the strongest Pokémon I have,” Gary nodded in acknowledgment.

"class!!"

Tyranitar raised its head, adopting an arrogant and domineering posture. It is indeed one of Gary's strongest Pokémon, but it would be better if it could be removed from the list, because it is currently no match for Blastoise.

Seeing that Shigeru readily admitted it, Yu Jin smiled, took out a Poké Ball, and said, "It seems that I have to get serious too. My third Pokémon... Let's go!"

Tulip threw the Poké Ball in his hand into the sea.

Baton!

Pfft! !

A blue-bodied sprite fell into the sea. After entering the water, the sprite immediately surfaced, revealing its true form.

【LV66 Laplace♂/Champion】

Tulip's third Pokémon is a Lapras, and it has Champion potential.

"Wow, no wonder they chose this venue."

Upon seeing Laplace, Shigeru understood why Tulip had chosen the beach and ocean as the battleground; the ocean was specifically prepared for Laplace.

Shigeru didn't bring any Electric-type Pokémon, but he did prepare a Grass-type Pokémon, which was unfortunately not suitable for battling Lapras in this environment.

"Laplace, use Water Cannon!" Tulip launched a fierce attack, immediately unleashing a powerful water-type move.

"Tyranitar, use Dark Pulse!" Gary retorted.

The water sphere that Laplace condensed in front of his mouth transformed into a rapid jet of water that shot toward Tyranitar on the beach.

Tyranitar emitted a black glow from its mouth and unleashed a jet-black beam of light. The two skills converged, and Dark Pulse with overwhelming force brought the Hydro Cannon's attack to a halt, gradually forcing it back at a visible speed.

Tyranitar is a physical attacker, but its special attack stat is also quite high, reaching 95, which is higher than Lapras. Lapras's main strength is its high HP, while its other stats are quite average, mainly showing its high HP and durability.

Boom! !

A cloud of smoke rose from the sea. Although the evil wave suppressed the water cannon, it did not completely repel it. In the end, an explosion occurred due to the energy conflict.

However, because Laplace was in the sea, the impact of the explosion could not harm it, and Tyranitar was also unable to do anything to it.

“Laplace, use absolute zero,” Tulip suddenly commanded.

The next moment, Laplace poked its head out of the water and spewed a blast of icy air at Tyranitar.

Without Gary's command, Tyranitar waved his hand, manipulating the sandstorm in front of him to form a sand shield that blocked all the cold air. The sand shield was instantly frozen, becoming an ice shield.

Absolute Zero, a one-hit kill skill, isn't like in games where it's ineffective if your level is higher than the opponent's. Although you won't be instantly killed, you'll still take the damage, and it's real damage, so you can't just take it carelessly.

Only Pokémon with the Sturdy trait can be completely immune to one-hit kills.

"...Using sandstorms for defense... Impressive!" Ashida was also impressed by Tyranitar's move, never having imagined that sandstorms could be used in this way.

"Tyranitar, attack with Stone Point!" Gary commanded.

"class!"

Tyranitar conjured numerous rock blades around its body and rapidly shot them toward Lapras.

"La!"

Laplace was completely unafraid and dived directly underwater. The rock blades fell into the water, splashing up waves, but they couldn't hurt Laplace. Even if they happened to hit Laplace, they would most likely just hit its shell and cause no damage.

Tyranitar has the ability to change mountains and rivers, but it can't change the ocean. This Umbertophis is determined to use a sneaky tactic, and Gary and Tyranitar are at a loss for what to do.

"Bangjira, stop the sandstorm," Gary said.

Tulip: "Huh??"

Upon hearing what Shigeru said, Tulip looked completely bewildered. Sandstorm weather can raise the Special Defense of Rock-type Pokémon, which is beneficial to Tyranitar. There is absolutely no need to stop the sandstorm.

But... why did Xiaomao suddenly do this?

"class!"

Bangira waved his hand, and the sandstorm on the field quickly subsided.

Yu Jin also saw that Shigeru was holding a Poké Ball and pointing it at Tyranitar.

"Come back." Shigeru pressed the switch and recalled Tyranitar.

Seeing Gary recall Tyranitar, Tulip's expression also became tense. Having witnessed such a powerful Tyranitar, Gary might have other Pokémon as strong as Tyranitar.

Since Gary definitely won't send out Scizor again, that leaves the third Pokémon he's prepared... who could it be?

"Old friend, I didn't want to trouble you, but I have no choice now, so please help me!" Gary threw out a Poké Ball.

Baton!

"Kami!!"

497: Destroy the Battle Palace

【LV72 Blastoise♂/Legendary】

"Blastoise!!"

Yashida was immediately startled.

Ashida saw Blastoise again, more than two months after she first saw it.

"So this is the Blastoise that Ashida mentioned defeated Lady Agatha's Gengar. It looks really strong," Tulip thought to himself.

Early this morning, Ashida came to inform Umberto that the challenger this time was very strong, and even revealed which Pokémon Gary had used, and knew that Gary had a very strong Blastoise.

However, Ashida said that Gary doesn't usually use Blastoise, and he didn't use it in the previous four Frontier Battles either, but he didn't expect him to use it against him this time.

Tulip glanced at Lapras in the sea and immediately realized that the only Pokémon that Gary had that could go underwater was Blastoise, and that he had just happened to force Blastoise out of the water.

"Laplace, be careful, this Blastoise is very strong," Tulip warned.

"Rah!"

Laplace nodded, indicating that he would be careful. An opponent that required his trainer to warn him to be cautious must be quite strong.

"Blastoise, use High Speed ​​Water Blade!" Gary commanded.

"Kami!"

Blastoise leaped into the sea, but instead of entering, it floated in the air by spinning at high speed. At the same time, it was surrounded by water elementals, forming Water Blade 223, and rushed towards Laplace.

Seeing Blastoise attacking from the front, Tulip was completely overwhelmed and immediately countered, "Laplace, use Ice Beam!"

Laplace emitted a cold light from its mouth and spat out a beam of icy light. The freezing beam hit Blastoise and instantly froze Blastoise and the surrounding water blades.

However... it only froze the Blastoise and did not stop it from moving forward. Moreover, due to the freezing effect of the Ice Beam, the High Speed ​​Water Blade evolved into the High Speed ​​Ice Blade.

boom! !

"La!!"

Laplace let out a wail as it was struck by the high-speed ice blade, which shattered, and Blastoise's head and limbs immediately emerged from its shell.

"Great opportunity, Burst Fist!" Shigeru commanded.

"Kami!!"

Blastoise was only a little over a meter away from Laplace when it unleashed a furious punch covered in a berserk aura.

boom! !

The fist landed on Laplace's neck, sending him flying backward, the punch sending him more than ten meters away.

"La la sizzle!!"

Laplace, struck by the Explosive Punch, immediately fell into a state of confusion.

Shigeru, of course, wouldn't let this opportunity to strike back at his opponent slip by, and immediately commanded, "Aura Missile!!"

Blastoise lowered its cannon barrel and, without any aiming, fired two blue energy balls.

"Laplace, hold the line!" Tulip shouted.

But instead of using Guard, Laplace unleashed a beam of freezing light into the sky.

With the help of the Blastoise launcher, the two wave missiles moved at an extremely fast speed, and with automatic aiming, they arrived in front of Laplace in the blink of an eye.

Boom! !

With a loud bang, Laplace was blasted away again.

boom! !

Laplace fell onto the beach, his eyes spinning in circles.

"Laplace is incapacitated; Blastoise wins," the machine referee announced.
