Chapter 501 Zi Yu: Teacher Yu's teaching is so useful!
Nemo: ? ? ?
When Nemo heard Ziyu's command, she was completely taken aback.
Because this move has a really strong sense of déjà vu—
Isn't this the "squad formation" tactic that Teacher Yu taught a long time ago?
You cunning Ziyu! It's been so long since we last met. I thought we'd be all lovey-dovey, but you've come up with something underhanded right off the bat!
However, I was taught by Teacher Yu for half a year, so this kind of trick is no problem for me!
"Giant Bone-Patterned Crocodile, come back!"
Nemo made a quick decision, recalling the newly summoned Krookodile and then throwing out another Poké Ball.
This time, Babu Groundhog is making its appearance. Because its attributes are Electric and Fighting, it is naturally immune to electromagnetic interference.
At the same time, it also temporarily resolved another awkward situation on the field.
Both Cyclops and Krookodile rely on Special Attack as their primary means of attack, making it difficult for them to deal effective damage when facing Chansey, and they can almost only watch helplessly as the opponent uses Minimize.
A simple rotation effectively salvaged the awkward situation of being caught off guard by information disadvantage at the start of the game.
Moreover, there might even be unexpected surprises.
Qingyu nodded gently.
It seems that Nemo's intensive training has been effective; she has already turned thinking into instinctive reactions during battles.
Of course, Nemo's command was not over yet.
"Sai Fuhao, using trickery to strengthen himself!"
Black question marks immediately appeared above the head of the man whose body was made of gold coins, while he secretly gathered power, seemingly ready to unleash it as a move at any moment.
It may not have a good way to deal with Chansey, but when facing the Fairy-type Bluegogo, its suppression power is directly maximized.
Once the gold rush following the scheme takes effect, it will most likely be able to eliminate the opponent directly.
Chansey on the Purple Flute's side also seized the opportunity, using the Shrink move to quickly shrink its size by more than half, and then ran away to hide behind Blue Emperor.
"Hmph, running away won't help~"
Seeing this, Nemo smiled and immediately pointed forward forcefully.
"Sai Fuhao, use the gold rush!"
"Babutop, 100,000 Volts!"
"Let's finish them off in one go!"
Although she doesn't usually have many opportunities to experience doubles matches, it doesn't mean she's completely unfamiliar with them.
On the contrary, Teacher Qingyu often broadcasts some outrageous tactics that are incomprehensible at first glance, but amazing once you understand them.
I read and understood everything carefully!
Underestimating me will come at a price, Ziyu~
After Nemo gave the order, Babu Tubo took the lead, quickly moving to Cyfus's side, seemingly intending to unleash a special move with his teammates.
Soon, Sai Fuhao finished charging up and unleashed a beam of energy composed of coins and covered in electricity, shooting straight towards his opponent.
Try our exhilarating combo attacks!
Faced with such a terrifying attack, Zi Yu did not panic at all, but instead revealed a mysterious smile.
"King Blue, hold the line!"
"Chicken Egg, keep getting smaller!"
Upon hearing Ziyu's next command, Qingyu suddenly raised an eyebrow.
At first, I thought she just had a sudden whim and wanted to give Nemo a live show.
But judging from this move, it seems like they really came prepared?
That makes sense, since Blueberry Academy's main competitive mode is doubles.
Doubles is inherently a bit like a wild battle, where two Pokémon can work together to unleash a total strength that exceeds the sum of their individual abilities.
As for all sorts of strange and unusual tactics, you'll eventually figure them out by reviewing them more often.
For example, Ziyu's move is to directly use her doubles teammate to get a Protect, so that Chansey can use Minimize again more safely.
It has a clever little touch.
In reality, it is indeed possible to do so.
Blue King deployed its defensive barrier, using all its strength to protect Chansey behind it, and successfully blocked Cypher's attack.
"Come back now, Your Majesty!"
Seeing that Emperor Bru was already showing signs of fatigue, Zi Yu decisively made a substitution, recalling his main force.
Soon, another red light flashed.
A pointed-headed gopher landed on the field, wearing a dark red vest.
It looks like it has been used for a long time.
An assault vest, huh?
Qingyu nodded, then suddenly recalled some information about Ziyu.
Her father is Kiku, a very famous gym owner in the Unova region. It is said that this Blueberry Academy also has an underwater energy factory, all of which were built by Kiku's professional engineering team.
She's also a very secretive young lady.
So this dragon-headed mole, whose team style doesn't match hers, is actually similar to a bodyguard left by her father.
Qingyu suddenly became a little curious.
However, now is not the time to ask about such gossip; the battle is not over yet.
After shrinking twice, Chansey is now so small that it's only the size of a palm, and it's hard to spot it hiding behind Excadrill if you don't look closely.
If it shrinks just one more time, its defense will be virtually flawless.
If even the opponent can't spot Chansey, how can they hit it?
That is indeed the case in theory.
However, Nemo didn't feel any pressure at all. Instead, she confidently pointed at Ziyu and loudly declared, "Ziyu, you've already lost!"
"Teacher Yu's tactics are effective, but—"
"Do you know how thoroughly the students at Orange Academy have analyzed and analyzed the tactics that Teacher Yu has devised?"
"The reason you'll lose is simple: you're not innovative enough!"
After saying several seemingly nonsensical things, under Zi Yu's gaze that seemed to say, "What is this guy talking about?", Nemo suddenly spoke again.
"Babu Groundhog, use Lightning Strike, target the shrunken Chansey!!!"
Upon hearing Nemo's command, Peony, who was standing not far behind Qingyu, suddenly smiled and subtly adjusted her glasses.
There's a reason why Nemo is so confident.
No one knows these things better than her, the "BOSS" of the Tianxing team.
When they were challenging the Sunshine Dojo, the strategy team had to put in a lot of effort to figure out the various conventional solutions to deal with the ever-changing and ever-evolving tactical challenges that Teacher Yu updated every week.
For example, when facing a shrinking tactic, the simplest way is to use "pressure-type moves".
Because the opponent's size has decreased, it is not necessary to judge its exact location when launching an attack, making it impossible for the opponent to dodge, and even the power will suddenly increase.
As for what moves qualify as pressure-type moves?
To be honest, they used a rather clumsy method at the beginning; they really tried them one by one.
However, as long as the result is good, that's enough!
Babu Tubo's "Lightning Strike" is one of the special moves used to counter shrinking tactics.
As for the Dragon Head Mole, Sai Fuhao happens to have the True Energy Bomb that can fill in the gaps.
Although the moves might lack accuracy and not necessarily hit the opponent, the decision of whether or not to gamble on whether the Dragon Head Mole could dodge has been handed over to Zi Yu.
Zi Yu, who had been full of confidence, suddenly sighed.
This battle seems to have faded into the past.
The Gold Rush that Sai Fuhao used earlier was not intended to hit; it was just a deliberate delay to allow Chansey to strengthen.
Wait until you're at your most confident, then devour Chansey in one go.
"This was someone's carefully prepared trump card, yet it was countered so easily!"
"I give up, Nemo, you win!"
Even if you stall for time, it won't make a difference. As long as the shrinking effect is still active, Babutop can inflict terrifying damage on Chansey.
The shrinking tactic lacks finishing ability, and if it's meant to be sustained, it will definitely put you at a disadvantage.
No wonder Nemo seemed so confident earlier; she had already planned how to defeat herself from the very beginning.
That's practically killing someone by destroying their spirit!
but----
It's only been half a year, but Nemo's personality seems to have become much more cunning, and she's not as pretty as before.
Zi Yu glanced curiously at Nemo, then turned to look at Qing Yu, who was smiling to the side.
Could it also be related to Teacher Yu?
Hehe~
Nemo didn't think much of it. After Ziyu conceded defeat, she immediately grinned and told the two Pokémon in front of her to cancel their moves.
"After all, I'm the champion of the Padiya region now, so it's normal for a king to lose to a champion, right?"
She quickly jogged over to Ziyu and gave a thumbs-up.
"Besides, we Orange Academy students are all too familiar with Teacher Yu's tactics. Just seeing Chansey is enough for us to guess what you're going to do~"
Zi Yu: ————?
Why is there such a close-up taunt?!
However, Nemo's words do make sense.
Perhaps because they are far from Coach Yu's guidance, Blueberry Academy, despite its focus on doubles, is still relatively behind in understanding Coach Yu's tactics.
But it's okay, Teacher Yu herself has already made it here!
If I can learn some new knowledge from Teacher Yu, I'm sure I can become as strong as Nemo.
It would be even better if we could keep Ms. Yu at Blueberry Academy!
Feeling the intense gaze from Ziyu, Qingyu blinked, not quite understanding what the other was thinking.
However, since the match has already ended, let's do a quick recap first.
"Well done, Nemo."
Qingyu stepped forward and first praised Nemo for her victory.
Nemo's choice was actually quite conventional, but her reaction was indeed very quick; she had almost foreseen what would happen next when Chansey appeared.
It's fair to say that she was already orchestrating the game before the match even began.
This style truly seems to be a direct inheritance from him.
However, if it were me, I would never be as "reckless" as Nemo, deliberately tricking her into using the Purple Flute and then unleashing a critical hit at the right moment.
This well is terrible! Who taught it to do this?
This is the one thing Qingyu absolutely refuses to admit is that she learned bad habits from him!
Of course, the focus of this review is definitely not Nemo.
After exchanging only a few words with Nemo, he quickly turned his gaze to Ziyu.
"The application of the shrinking tactic in doubles is indeed yet to be explored. It's great that you came up with a design around shrinking, Ziyu."
"When you run into Nemo who happens to understand this strategy and has a knack for countering it, there's really nothing you can do if you lose to her, but there's still room for improvement."
"For example, the selection of Pokémon was a bit rough, and we didn't consider what to do if they shrunk and got beaten by a well."
"Just like with Blue King's Guard just now, in doubles matches, it's very important to have your teammate help defend the well, right?"
Qingyu didn't mention any hardcore tactics, but only offered some suggestions based on his observations.
Then, after thinking for a moment, he continued, "Speaking of which, there is actually a more scientific tactic for shrinking. I'll demonstrate it for you when I have time."
"Later, you and Nemo or someone else can try it out. If you try to protect Chansey with a coordinated defense strategy, the results might be better."
"Mmm, as expected of Teacher Yu!"
Zi Yu nodded repeatedly.
She didn't actually fully understand what Qingyu was saying.
But that's okay. Just the fact that they can teach normally already puts them far ahead of the other teachers at Blueberry Academy!
Moreover, Teacher Yu can immediately offer suggestions, and even optimized tactics, based on the tactics one uses.
The well is so reliable!
Nemo's ability to become so strong in just six months is undoubtedly due to Teacher Yu's guidance.
I wish Teacher Yu could become a teacher at our United Academy!
In fact, not only Zigan, but Principal Xilan, who had arrived at some point, was thinking the same thing.
Blueberry Academy has always had an incredibly free school spirit, so most of the time students are encouraged to explore freely and grow through competition.
But if there were a teacher like Qingyu, students could obviously avoid many detours.
For the next half hour, Ziyu had a brief sparring session with the other three members of the "Blueberry Four Heavenly Kings".
Sure enough, when she changed her partner Pokémon to Chansey and borrowed Principal Cylan's Gothic Lady, the situation immediately improved.
With the help of Goblin's Shadow Tag ability and Tense Terrain moves, hitting Chansey becomes several levels more difficult.
With just a few simple instructions, Zi and others gained a new level of understanding of the shrinking tactic.
However, after some hesitation, Zi Yu ultimately abandoned this approach.
After all, she originally just wanted to give Nemo a surprise, but as she kept optimizing, all the cute Pokémon in her team were going to be optimized away!
That's not good, your Pokémon will cry!
Qingyu expressed her understanding of this.
After all, his ideas are mostly based on tactics, and if students think they are suitable, they can use them to optimize the lineup themselves.
If it's not suitable, there's nothing we can do; let's wait for the next tactic.
In fact, even he himself doesn't use most of the tactics he's been taught.
In actual battles, Qingyu still focuses on his main Pokémon and tries his best to design tactics that revolve around them.
My first day at Blueberry Academy passed quickly with classes.
By the time Qingyu came to her senses, the sun was almost setting.
The sun is about to disappear below the horizon, and I always find this kind of scenery beautiful.
However, just as Qingyu was feeling sentimental—
A bizarre humanoid figure, entirely dark green and seemingly floating on clouds, suddenly appeared in the distance and then quickly disappeared.
Where it passed, a sudden gust of wind swept through, and several dark clouds instantly appeared on the once clear coastline, followed by a downpour.
"Is that... a tornado?"
Qingyu blinked.
He was certain he couldn't be wrong.
With such obvious characteristics, there shouldn't be any other possibility besides it "transforming" into one of the Pokémon, Tornado.
I never expected to see a legendary Pokémon so soon after arriving in Unova!
