Chapter 513: The Signal for Counterattack Sounds!
Chapter 513: The Signal for Counterattack Sounds!
The black hole has been sealed off.
This sudden change was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing a huge uproar throughout the arena!
A gasp of disbelief erupted from the audience, and even the usually composed commentator couldn't help but raise his voice: "What a brilliant provocation! Koping's Jynx has successfully blocked Darkrai's Black Hole!"
The problem that had plagued countless trainers was "easily" solved by Kohei.
Dakdo's face finally lost its previous composure.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, re-examining Kaoping, who still had a faint smile on his lips.
Using the light wall as cover, they successfully reversed speed using a magic space technique. At the same time, Hippo King made his exit with a lame joke and sent Jynx to provoke and seal off the most threatening black hole...
This series of arrangements seems simple, but in fact they are all interconnected. Every step is a tightrope walk, and the slightest carelessness could lead to Darkrai taking him down, causing the entire match to collapse completely.
That's a really good plan.
However, Dakdo's surprise and admiration lasted only a moment.
What good is sealing off a black hole?
His Darkrai will use more than just black holes and dream eaters.
“Since that’s the case…” Darkrai’s voice returned to its calm tone, but contained a hint of barely perceptible coldness, “Then I’ll just crush you with pure power! Darkrai, Dark Pulse!”
But just as he opened his mouth, Kaoping's voice rang out again like a ghost, carrying a chilling, sinister tone:
"The Spell of Death, Sister of the Bewitching Lips".
"Ru——!!!"
With her hands clasped together and her head tilted slightly back, a song like an aria flowed slowly from her mouth.
The singing wasn't loud; it even had an eerie, ethereal quality. But the aura of death it contained was like an invisible curse, instantly enveloping the entire venue!
It's a song of destruction?!
Only at this moment was the calm on Dakdo's face completely shattered! His expression changed abruptly, and his pupils contracted sharply!
He finally understood Kaoping's true intentions!
Magic space, provocation...
All of this was merely paving the way for this final, deadly move.
Once the Song of Destruction is played, all Pokémon on the field will simultaneously lose their ability to battle after three rounds.
Koping's goal from the beginning was not to defeat Darkrai by simply stacking buffs, but to drag Darkrai down with him in this almost suicidal way.
That's a crazy decision.
Beads of sweat trickled down Dakdo's forehead.
Although the plan was crazy, it had to be admitted that the Song of Destruction did give him a sense of urgency.
Darkrai's Dark Pulse also hit Jynx at the same time.
Despite the elemental advantage, this Dark Pulse did not directly defeat it.
The moment the Dark Pulse struck Jynx, the golden light wall reappeared, blocking Jynx and Darkrai and preventing them from receiving the fatal blow.
Was the light wall that the Hippo King created a foreshadowing for this moment?
"Don't even think about succeeding!" Darkrai shouted, waving his hand sharply. "If once isn't enough, try again! Darkrai! Finish it off as quickly as possible! Keep using Dark Pulse!"
Darkrai received the command, and a surge of dark purple energy once again gathered on his jet-black body.
This time, Darkrai's energy condenses faster than before, and its power is even more terrifying.
In the blink of an eye, a wave of evil energy was fully formed, tearing through the falling snow and crashing towards Sister Mist with an aura of annihilation!
"Hold the line!" Kaoping's command was frighteningly calm.
A verdant energy barrier instantly appeared in front of the Mistress of Lips, firmly blocking the evil fluctuations.
The energy surged against the barrier, producing a deafening roar, yet it could not penetrate even an inch.
“One more time!” Dakdo said without hesitation.
If you can block it once, can you really block it a second time?
The wave of evil energy gathered again, and it looked like it was about to be unleashed once more.
"A double!" Kaoping changed his strategy.
A flash of pink light appeared on the Mistress of Lips, and an identical clone appeared in its original spot, while the real Mistress quietly took a half step back.
"boom--!"
The evil wave struck the Stand precisely, blasting it to pieces.
The alternating use of Protect and Substitute... combined with Trick Room's speed restriction on Darkrai, and Taunt's ability to block the black hole...
Darkrai finally realized that the few instructions Coping had given so far had completely blocked any possibility of Darkrai eliminating Jynx before the Song of Destruction took effect.
"Om-!!"
The second countdown of the doomsday song sounded on the field, like a death knell, making Darko's heart tighten.
……
"I never expected that Kaoping would actually teach Jynx how to use the Song of Destruction in just two days."
In the rest room of the preparation area, Ah Xun watched the thrilling match on the screen and couldn't help but slap his thigh excitedly, his tone full of admiration.
Sitting next to him, Xiao Zhi's eyes were also fixed on the screen. Although his face didn't have the same exaggerated expression as A Xun's, his eyes were also filled with certainty.
Trick Room, Provocation, Doomsday Song, Guardian and Stand...
This seemingly perfect "god-slaying" plan was the best solution that Ash, Shinji, Kouhei, and Ash had come up with over the past two days.
It's said to be the best solution, but only Kaoping has been able to successfully implement it.
Ash's friends' Pokémon and the skills they possess do not support adopting this approach.
It can be said that Kaoping's meeting with Dakdo at this time was purely a matter of fate.
The most difficult part of this plan is successfully opening Trick Room in the face of Darkrai's terrifying speed.
During the battle with Ash's Darkrai, Koping was never able to successfully activate Trick Room. This is because experienced battlers would be wary of any Trick Room user, especially since Koping and his friends were using Trick Room openly when battling Ash, forcing Ash to stop them.
Once the Hippo King appears, Dakdo will definitely suspect that Koping's goal is to open the magic space, and thus take precautions.
But Kaoping succeeded in doing so with a simple idea.
As for the choice of provocation, Shinji actually raised different opinions at the time.
He believed that using a mysterious guardian to prevent his side from being hit by a black hole would be a safer option.
But Kaoping insisted on using provocation.
In his view, Hippowdon would be seriously injured after taking a hit from Darkrai and would have to immediately use "Cold Joke" to leave the field, and then switch to a Pokémon that would execute Perish Song. There were simply no extra turns for Hippowdon to use Safeguard.
Provocation can not only block the black hole, but also block other potentially threatening alteration abilities that Darkrai might possess, such as Nasty Plot.
In several battles against Ash's Darkrai, they were often defeated by Darkrai's trickery, which resulted in them being swept away.
Therefore, provoking the enemy was a safer option, and Shinji later accepted this plan.
And as it turns out, Kaoping's choice was correct.
......
P.S.: My three-day proctoring trip is finally over, I'm almost exhausted.
