Pokemon: Pick up Eevee at the start

Chapter 218 The bonus of staying at Sirona's house for two months? (8k)

The few days before the school team replacement game at the end of each month is always the busiest time in the arena of Shangjing University.

Especially this month is also mixed with the upcoming selection of Donghuang Youth Trainer Conference.

That's why almost everyone in the top 100 is trying their best to score points in order to break into the school team in the last few days, stand out from the trials, and become one of the ten people who can participate in the youth competition.

After all, even if the false name of being "the best young trainers in Donghuang" is put aside, the rewards of the conference are really high.

In addition to the high bonuses and resources provided by the major sponsors, the trainers who have entered the top four can also be selected into the [Alliance Key Talent Training Program] launched by the Donghuang Alliance in recent years.

Because the plan has only been launched recently, the content of the training plan is very mysterious and unknown to outsiders.

But according to the known information, the strength of the more than a dozen trainers who joined this plan has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years.

Therefore, the competition in the youth competition in the past two years has naturally become more intense.

Naturally, this intensity was also transmitted to Shangjing University.

The data showed that the number of ladder battles this month had increased by a terrifying 60% compared to last month.

On the afternoon of November 28th, in a battle field in the arena.

As a vigorous and powerful water cannon spewed out, the Super Armored Rhinoceros in the center of the field, who tried to use rock blasts to block the opponent, was submerged by the rushing water.

Immediately, it fell down with a bang, setting off waves of dust on the battlefield.

The referee spun Rotom and flew over to check it. After confirming that it was incapacitated, the score was immediately rewritten to 3:0 on the big screen above the battlefield.

What was then rewritten was the ranking of the two sides in the battle.

Xia Chen rose to 19th place, Tang Chengxu dropped to 32nd place.

The dust of the game had settled, but there was a lively discussion from the onlookers on the sidelines.

…………

"It's three to zero again, Xia Chen is too fierce, isn't he?"

"It's not this. What's more fierce is that he came back on the 25th. In four days, he went from the eighty to the nineteenth, and lost two or three games in the middle! And his last main force, Qi Lu Lian has not been on it, and it is the quasi-god cub Doron Mesia."

"Brother, how do you know so clearly, you don't have a crush on him, do you?"

"What are you talking about? I will definitely collect all the information about my rival!"

"One thing to say, I definitely don't believe that Xia Chen is so fierce without Sirona's help."

"When I think of him living with Sirona for two months, my back molars are about to be crushed, too born!"

"Jokes are ridicules, but Xia Chen has made great progress in the past two months. His Xianbu and Menus must be at the stable elite level, and that Kirulian has a high probability of evolving into Xanadu. Otherwise it won't be hidden."

"Maybe he can really enter the Donghuang Youth Competition? If so, it would be too scary, he is not yet eighteen years old."

And just as everyone was discussing fiercely, Xia Chen, who was at the center of the topic, had withdrawn Menus and left the battlefield.

"It's really not easy. I finally got my ranking back. Thanks for your hard work, Xianbu."

While walking towards the elf center, Xia Chen praised his general.

"Buyi~"

Xianbu at Xia Chen's feet said calmly that this was nothing at all.

"Messi!"

Duolong Meijia, who was lying on Xia Chen's head, reminded his trainer that he missed the dragon when he praised him.

Xia Chen took him down from the top of his head, and encouraged him with a smile: "Got it, and you, Doron Messiah, your performance is also very good."

This is not a joke, Xiao Duolong played six games in the past few days and defeated three elves in total.

It looks ugly, but it's not easy for a quasi-god cub who hasn't even grown a hair to achieve such a result in a game of this intensity.

Wait, Duolong Baruto seems to be hairless?

Hmm. Fantasizing about furry again?

…………

Withdrawing his messy thoughts, Xia Chen calculated the course of the battle in the past few days after returning.

Since he left school for two months, Xia Chen, who was unable to rank, dropped from No. 39 to No. 80 in a straight line.

Although this doesn't affect him who is still on the school team to participate in the tryouts at the end of the month, he still wants to get higher in the rankings.

One is for practice, and the second reason is because of the trials.

Although I don't know the competition system, but I think the rules of this bubbling match should be beneficial to those with higher rankings.

To be on the safe side, Xia Chen still chose to rush for a high ranking.

Three and a half days, twenty-eight games, twenty-five wins and three losses.

Thus, there was Xia Chen who is now ranked nineteenth.

Speaking of those three losses, he played against top five guys.

In one of the games, Xia Chen felt that replacing Xiaoduolong with Xanadu would basically win.

In another game, there is a high probability that it will be no problem to replace Xanadu.

But the last match. Facing the senior named Populus Hu Yang who has been ranked first this year.

Even if Xanadu was replaced, Xia Chen knew that the hope of winning was very slim.

But he was not discouraged, after all, Hu Yang is now the leader of Shangjing University, and he is the top four favorite player in this year's Donghuang Youth Competition.

If the top four favorites can be defeated at will, this match will not be much of a challenge for him.

Except for Hu Yang, Xia Chen has the confidence to win the battle against the other members of the school team.

In addition to his confidence in strength, Xanadu, who has never shown his face in front of outsiders, is also one of his trump cards.

Xia Chen knew that Shanaido's existence had probably been guessed by most people, and his opponents would certainly be more or less on guard against him.

But it is one thing to know that it has evolved, but no one knows the strength of Xanadu after evolution.

Xia Chen is confident that at that time, Xanadu will definitely give everyone a big surprise.

…………

the next day.

Before nine o'clock in the morning, the stadium of Shangjing University was already crowded with people.

Because the last day was reserved for the selection competition, the monthly school team replacement competition started today ahead of schedule.

This is also Xia Chen's second transposition match, but in September, he was the challenger.

This time, he was sitting in the guarding seat on the school team's side.

Thousands of people have different faces, and the thirty people in the school team have different attitudes towards the transposition match.

There are those who feel a little nervous at the end of the crane, and there are also big guys who know that no one dares to challenge them and just come here for a formality.

Xia Chen is neither up nor down.

It's definitely not enough to go through the motions, the position of nineteenth place is mostly people who dare to challenge it.

But if you look closely at his recent record, you can find that his real strength is far beyond that of the nineteenth place, and the difficulty of the real challenge is comparable to that of the top ten.

But you can't say it dead, twenty out of thirty people will be selected, maybe there will be a steel-type trainer who will pick this weak and pitiful fairy-type trainer to challenge him?

Because the identity is the one being challenged, Xia Chen can't guess whether there is a reckless man who will challenge him, and he can't control it. All he can do is wait for himself to be flopped.

One morning passed, and those challengers who were able to choose their opponents first did not choose Xia Chen.

After all, there are twenty to thirty soft persimmons to pinch, and there is no one who is not open-eyed to challenge Xia Chen.

But in the afternoon, as the weak persimmons ranked below Xia Chen were picked away one by one, the challengers had fewer and fewer candidates to choose from.

Whether to choose Xia Chen, a freshman with low ranking but high strength, or the top ten guys with high ranking and strength, does not seem to be a difficult decision.

Finally, at the end of the Transposition Challenge, the person who challenged Xia Chen appeared.

The forty-seventh place, Bai Zhengqiu, a third-year student in the Department of Elf Studies, a professional trainer of the Steel Department.

…………

Generally speaking, those who have a higher chance of successful transposition are among the few people in the morning.

Not to mention their higher ranking and stronger strength, they can also give priority to choosing the opponent they want, so the winning rate is naturally higher.

and in the afternoon

Ranked in the forties and ranked in the teens, even if it is attribute restraint, it is destined to be a difficult match.

So this battle, before it even started, the onlookers almost had a certain idea in their minds.

However, this does not mean that they lack interest in this game.

After all, it was that man who was challenged!

Although he left the school for two months, Xia Chen's popularity and discussion in the school have not declined, on the contrary, they are still showing an upward trend.

Because at the beginning, everyone only discussed his past achievements and talent in battle. Of course, many Yangou paid attention to Xia Chen's handsome appearance.

it's different now

In the past two months, Xia Chen has re-emphasized the identity of "Sirona's cohabitant and rumored boyfriend", which can be called a male enemy.

Want to know who Sirona is?

This beautiful, strong and sassy new champion of Sinnoh and the new champion of the eight masters has captured the hearts of countless trainers all over the world since he gained fame in the past two years.

Both men and women.

And now there is such a scandal.

The most important thing is that Sirona has never refuted the rumors!

This broke the hearts of all the goats into countless pieces, and the goddess was not even willing to come forward to refute rumors and deceive herself.

But how could the boiling sheep scold the beautiful sheep?

The jealousy naturally vented to Pleasant Goat.

All of a sudden, the post "Xiagou everyone gets it and punishes it" was flying all over the school forum.

In short, as the most well-known "villain" on the campus of Shanghai University, Xia Chen's game attracted quite a few people.

In addition to looking at the strength of their rivals, some people secretly expect Xia Chen to overturn and lose face in the Transposition Challenge.

Although the probability is very small, but what if?

In the eyes of everyone, Xia Chen and his challenger Bai Zhengqiu stood on the battlefield.

The schedule is tight, no nonsense.

With the whistle of the referee, the players on both sides threw their poke balls.

"It's up to you, Magneto!"

"Meinas, prepare to fight!"

The battle officially begins!

…………

Looking at the elf that looked like a UFO floating in the low sky, Xia Chen finally understood why this guy chose himself as his opponent.

A self-exploding magnetite, a dual-attribute elf of electric steel.

As we all know, elves with steel attributes are in the upper middle of the food chain of attribute restraint, and electric steel is no exception.

Twelve resisted and three were restrained. This terrifying attribute restraint relationship really made the rock elves look silent, and the ice elves shed tears when they saw it.

The elves that Xia Chen is good at happen to be not among the three restrained attributes, and Dian Gang can restrain the water-type Menas, and the other restrains the fairy-type Xianbu and Xanadu.

Maybe this is why he challenged himself.

Even so, Xia Chen didn't panic at all. Although the self-destructing Magneto restrained Menus, it had to be established on the basis of equal levels between the two parties.

And in this battle, elite level vs. senior level, the advantage lies with me!

However, seeing that the opponent has no intention of attacking first, there is a move that needs to be guarded against.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Xia Chen commanded: "Meinas, spray water!"

As soon as Xia Chen's loud voice came out, it immediately caused a commotion in the battlefield.

Spray! See you again!

Although it is no secret that Xia Chen's Menus can spray water, the audience is still a little excited when recalling the scene when Menus sprayed water last time, which was like a natural disaster.

Who would not want to see a Menus that can spray water?

...

Compared to the restless audience, facing Xia Chen, Bai Zhengqiu calmly held up his glasses with his index finger, and a determined smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Whether it is Xia Chen using Menus as the starting elf, or using the most powerful water spray to preempt the attack, it is within his expectation.

Now that he has figured out what his opponent is thinking, he naturally has a way to deal with it.

Before the challenge, Bai Zhengqiu carefully watched all the battle videos of Menus that have been circulated on the Internet so far, and based on this, he analyzed his various statistics in detail.

He accurately came to a conclusion that with Menus' special attack strength, his self-explosive Magnetomon could steadily receive a spray of water without dying.

Then, what the opponent's Menus needs to face is the mirror reflection of the [Analysis] characteristic blessing.

With the current strength of the self-explosive Magnetomon, the analysis of its characteristics can make it use moves later, and the power of the moves will increase by about 20%.

And the mirror reflection can even return the last special move suffered in the form of double damage!

In other words, the higher the water spray damage of Menus, the greater the backlash damage he will receive.

No one who watched Xia Chen's promotion to the school team had any doubts about the power of the Menus water cannon.

As for the water cannon that returns double the damage, you Meinas take the lead?

Bai Zhengqiu smiled slightly, his glasses shone with the light of wisdom.

The battle between elves is nothing more than an analysis based on data.

In normal ranking, the opponents are random, and there is nowhere to display what you are best at.

That's why it wasn't until today that he made it into the top 50 on the ladder and qualified for the transposition match.

And this kind of opponent is a game of your choice.

As long as I have all the information, even if it is a god, I will kill you!

…………

Rolling waves gushed out of Menus' mouth continuously, and in an instant, a huge wave was set off on the battlefield.

As all the audience and Bai Zhengqiu wished, a flood of heavenly power descended into the world in an instant, as if it wanted to annihilate everything covered by its power.

The raging water rushing forward like thousands of horses and horses, even the self-explosive magnet monster, which is close to the size of a small aircraft, looks so small and fragile.

Although it is not like the flame chicken, the last water spray victim, it will suffer double restraint damage.

But no one doubts how devastating the Magneto-Explosive will be when the waves roll in.

Bai Zhengqiu did not doubt this at all.

But this is what he wants.

Looking at the timing when the wave is about to arrive, Bai Zhengqiu shouted in a cold voice: "Magnetic self-exploding, it is now, mirror reflection!"

"Bru—"

The self-explosive magneto immediately responded to the trainer's command with a mechanical electronic sound.

Because Bai Zhengqiu had already arranged tactics with his own elves before the battle, all the self-destructing Magneto had to do at this moment was to execute it mechanically.

As a result, just as Bai Zhengqiu finished speaking, a strange pale pink light suddenly lit up on the silver-gray body of the self-explosive magnetite.

Covered by the light built by the energy of the super energy system, Magnemite's steel body, which was originally smooth and shiny, looked even more bright like a mirror.

Just like the name of this move, mirror reflection!

No matter how powerful the special attack is, as long as the attack is on this mirror, it will be doubled!

…………

Bai Zhengqiu made the self-explosive Magneto use the mirror reflection time very cleverly.

If it had been earlier, Menus could have used small powerful moves to break the reflection of the mirror, or prayed for rain first, and then waited for an opportunity to spray water.

If it was later, Xia Chen could also command Menus to quickly hit a tornado, a small but fast move to cover the damage of the water spray.

You know, although the specular reflection is strong, it also has a fatal flaw.

That is, when the elf is hit by multiple attack moves, only the last damage received is reflected.

That is to say, as long as the trainer or elf releases the move fast enough, it is completely possible to add a small powerful move after a powerful move, so that the mirror reflection can only counter the latter's damage.

Bai Zhengqiu obviously took into account the characteristics of Menus's quick moves, and deliberately pinpointed the time when the wave was about to hit, and then let the self-explosive magneto release the mirror reflection.

In order to avoid the defects of this trick itself.

Seeing that the water flow was about to impact on the mirror reflection formed by the self-exploding Magneto, his perfect plan finally completed the closed loop, the corners of Bai Zhengqiu's mouth rose slightly.

Data analysis, counting as exhaustive strategy, is my way to win!

But including Bai Zhengqiu, what everyone present did not notice was that

At the end of the turbulent and surging waves, there is actually a purple dragon's breath that is so small that it is almost invisible.

In the auditorium at this time, the melon-eating crowd cheered and celebrated that the big villain Xia Chen was about to encounter an unknown event.

"Damn it, isn't this guy playing yin? But I like it! To deal with a guy like Xia Chen, I want to give him some yin!"

"Mirror reflection is considered a regular move, not too cloudy, but Xia Chen is too confident, and sprays water directly as soon as he comes up, and he will reap the consequences."

"Double return water spray? Tsk tsk, even Menus who has high special defense and durability shouldn't be able to withstand it? Maybe Xia Chen is really going to capsize?"

"Open the champagne!"

"With Xia Chen's current strength, it's unlikely that the ship will capsize, but his hole card, Xanadu, will probably be forced out. Tomorrow's trials may see him capsize."

…………

In Bai Zhengqiu's confident smile, and the expressions of the melon-eaters gloating at the show, the raging wave will finally be submerged by the self-destructing magnetite covered by the super energy mask.

"Bru—"

The painful electronic sound of the self-exploding Magneto floats on the battlefield, fully demonstrating the great power of Menus' water spray.

But Bai Zhengqiu's expression was not sad but happy, because he knew that since the self-exploding Magneto could still make a sound, it meant that it hadn't fallen into the spray water.

Sure enough, there was no mistake in my calculations!

Then the next step is to let the opponent experience the double pain he has endured!

"Magnetic self-exploding, now!"

"Bru—"

Accompanied by the sound of the self-exploding Magneto enduring the pain, in the undissipated water waves, a beam of light pink mixed with purple-red broke through the water curtain and shot directly at Menus, who was a little exhausted after spraying the water.

This light beam is exactly the mirror reflection brewed by absorbing the damage from Perfect Nas' moves!

But why is this color a bit strange?

Bai Zhengqiu frowned slightly.

Normally, the color of the light beam reflected by the mirror should be light pink representing the super energy system, mixed with the color of the reflected move.

The beam of light just now is theoretically light pink mixed with beautiful water blue, but how could it be purple?

But everything I calculated was fine.

He didn't find the answer for a while, but he had already started to feel a little uneasy in his heart.

There should be no surprises, right?

Bai Zhengqiu looked up, and the light beam reflected by the mirror just hit Menus.

But the next scene made his pupils shrink suddenly.

…………

But completely different from the scene he imagined, Menus did not fall down amidst endless wailing and pain.

On the contrary, after taking this double "water spray" damage, Menus seemed to be fine? !

No, there's still something wrong.

On the milky white block that Menus was hit by the reflected light beam, there was a faint scorched black spot.

If nothing else, this is the energy damage caused by the reflected beam of the self-explosive magnetite.

And Menus' long eyebrows frowned slightly, it seemed that the wound made him feel pain.

So, the damage did hit, but

That's it?

What about the double refund of the agreed water spray?

Don't talk about seconds, looking at Menus' lively appearance, is he worthy of his meticulous design and calculation?

So, is the damage of this water spray itself not high enough?

Bai Zhengqiu looked at Magneto, who was powerlessly floating in mid-air after the tide receded, and fell to the ground with a clang, already dying, to rule out this certainty.

It can't be that Menus' durability is so high that it only breaks a little skin under the double water spray damage?

This is even more unrealistic.

Several possibilities kept flashing in Bai Zhengqiu's mind, but it was too late for him to think more about the current situation on the court.

Withdrawing his thoughts, he said in a deep voice: "Magnetic self-exploding, replace with Volt!"

Bai Zhengqiu still remained calm in his heart. He knew that Magneton was the best elf in his team to beat opponents. Even if he was seriously injured, he couldn't fall down here.

But as soon as the order was issued, the self-explosive Magneto was about to cheer up and use volts to replace and escape from the battlefield.

In the next second, a water cannon came crashing down, engulfing the self-explosive Magnetomon and its last hope of survival.

The score on the battlefield has been rewritten to 1:0.

…………

Bai Zhengqiu put down the elf ball he had raised in his hand somewhat dejectedly, and the confident smile on the corner of his mouth had long since dissipated.

Sure enough, Menus' moves were still so fast.

If it wasn't replaced by Volt just now, but directly recovered with the Poké Ball, there might be a chance, but I'm still greedy.

But the regret is only for a moment. At this moment, one more thing in his mind is...

Why is the damage of mirror reflection so low?

Could it be.

Recalling the strange purple-red color in the reflected beam, he seemed to have an answer in his mind.

Not only Bai Zhengqiu himself, but also the audience off the court were discussing this issue enthusiastically.

"It's a bad thing, it really turned into champagne at halftime."

"What's the situation, isn't the mirror reflection shot out? Why is this little damage?"

"Is Menus open?"

"Cold knowledge, the color of the specular reflection beam is pink mixed with the color of the reflection move attribute."

"If I'm not mistaken just now, it seems to be purple-red? In other words, the self-explosive Magneto reflects dragon moves?!"

"It doesn't make sense. From the beginning to the present, isn't Xia Chen only in charge of spraying water? When did Menus use dragon moves again?"

"I don't know, but this is the most reasonable and only possible explanation. As for how Xia Chen did it, only he knows."

"Tsk, the Tao is one foot tall, and the devil is one foot tall!"

"Damn it, let him pretend again!"

…………

Looking at the fallen magnetite, the corners of Xia Chen's mouth curled up slightly.

I knew that this kid had a problem, he was in a weak position, but he didn't think about taking the lead at the beginning, and he looked like he wanted to defend and counterattack.

Except for the move of mirror reflection, which doubles the return on the special attack end, there is no other move that is worth the sacrifice of being sprayed with water.

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows behind.

You won't be the only one who can pre-read, right?

Xia Chen thought quite complacently.

As for why he was able to let Menus add a dragon's breath after spraying water without passing the command, this is closely related to the "power of dragon control" bestowed on him by the Venerable Dragon Island.

The power of the elf world is so wonderful.

Maybe it has affected Xia Chen's brain waves or something. Although the power of Yulong can't make him telepathize with Menus and Xiaoduolong, the two sides can understand some simple thoughts in each other's mind.

This trick is especially useful in battles. Sometimes, it may be such a little information difference between the enemy and us that the situation can be completely changed.

Just like the dragon's breath just now.

Back on the battlefield, the game is still going on.

After all, it was the crucial school team transposition challenge. Although the start was frustrated, Bai Zhengqiu did not give up.

To take back the self-destructing Magneto that was incapable of fighting, he sent out his second elf.

A white light flashed, and an elf that looked exactly like a steel durian appeared.

Three small grass-green iron balls connected to the body by vines hit the ground heavily, making it stand up like three legs.

Bai Zhengqiu's second elf is an excellent shield elf with no weaknesses other than quadruple weak fire, known as Caogang's nut dumbbell.

…………

The excellent double defense, durability, and excellent resistance of the nut dumbbell make it always a headache for opponents on the battlefield.

Is Menus easy to beat it?

Naturally, it is not easy to fight. As long as he is planted with a parasitic seed, Menus, who has no moves to fight grass steel, basically has nothing to do with the opponent's nut dumbbell.

And Caogang's strong whipping strength is not low, if it goes on like this, it is really possible to give the opponent a chance.

Xia Chen has never had an iron head. After seeing this annoying big iron ball, he immediately replaced Menus with the fairy cloth that can use magic flames.

And when Xia Chen was changing elves, Bai Zhengqiu would naturally not be idle. Before Xianbu changed into the field, he directed the nut dumbbells to rush forward.

"Nut Dumbbells, Spinning Balls!"

"Fu--"

The nut dumbbell responded with a dull sound, and the three iron balls supporting its body immediately lifted off the ground, and the inertia brought by the movement of the iron balls turned its heavy body over.

Immediately, the three rattan whips connecting the body of the nut dumbbell and the iron ball swung vigorously and spun.

Even the body with the nut dumbbells began to spin rapidly like a spinning top.

It's the steel move, the spinning ball.

This is obviously a move with a high degree of proficiency in nut dumbbells. Before Xianbu hit the ground, this series of moves has been done smoothly.

Not only that, the three swinging and rotating iron balls provide inertia to the body underneath, making it spin faster and faster, and the drive of energy in the body also drives the three iron balls to swing more wantonly.

Such a virtuous cycle, within a few seconds, a silver-gray top with a meteor hammer on its head, a hot wheel on its feet, and a body full of iron thorns roared towards Xianbu who had just landed on all fours!

…………

"Xianbu, ignore it, use the magic flame!"

Xia Chen's command immediately stopped Xianbu who subconsciously wanted to stretch out the silk to distance himself from the dangerous spinning top that was getting closer.

Xianbu was stunned for a moment, and the second reaction was that she realized that the strength of this nut dumbbell was far from her own. A magical flame, the opponent would definitely not be able to catch it, so why bother to open the distance?

Xianbu was very depressed about the reaction that she still couldn't get rid of her instinctive dependence, and then she turned this depression into anger, and vented it on the nut dumbbell that was approaching her desperately in front of her.

The fire energy mixed with the aura of the goblin surged to the chest, and the next moment, a fire dragon with a little pink light particles roared out, and bumped into the spinning top ball head-on.

The hot flames were roasted for about three or four seconds, and the green body of the nut dumbbell was mixed with silver and gray, and there was no place that was not charred black after being roasted.

The three crispy roasted vines drooped weakly, and the spinning top slowly stopped spinning, and then fell to the ground with a crash.

A magical flame ended, and this elf, whom Bai Zhengqiu placed high hopes on to make a comeback, had already lost the ability to fight.

One hit, instant kill!

audience:"."

This nut dumbbell that made countless trainers sick, just fell down like this?

Although the grass steel is indeed four times weaker, the durability of the nut dumbbell is not low, why is it like a little crispy skin.

I haven't seen you for two months. Has this fairy cloth, this Xia Chen's strength, been exaggerated to such a degree?

If the dragon's breath in Menus just showed Xia Chen's pre-reading command level, then Xianbu's magic flame reflected the hard power of Xia Chen's lineup.

Think back to two months ago, although Xia Chen also used tricks frequently, but in terms of hard power, he still needed to rely on hidden tricks to be promoted to the school team.

Living in Sirona's house for two months, is the effect so good?
