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

Page 297

Aggron, its entire body enveloped in steel energy, charged toward Crocodile, each step accompanied by a thunderous stomp, leaving footprints several centimeters deep in its wake.

The powerful Crocodile, a seasoned veteran, realized that Aggron's body was extremely heavy, and that a head-on collision would most likely result in it being crushed.

"Giant Crocodile, use Water Cannon!" Yoji followed his heart and immediately changed to a special attack move.

puff! !

The crocodile opened its mouth and spewed out a water cannon, which hit Aggron. However, the water cannon was blocked by the steel energy on Aggron's body and could not stop Aggron's advance.

"What kind of power is this..."

This was the first time Yang Er had ever seen such a reckless Aggron, and he immediately ordered, "Heracross, attack with Pin Missiles!"

"Hera!!"

Hercules' horn flashed white light, and beams of bright white missiles shot out, heading towards Aggron.

"...Flame-breathing!"

A flame streaked through the air, incinerating the missile pins to ashes. The scorching flames landed on the field, quickly moving towards Heracross and instantly engulfing him.

"Heracross, hurry up and break out of the flames!" Yang Er shouted.

Heracross burst out of the flames.

boom! !

"crocodile!"

The crocodile was knocked more than ten meters away by the Bosscodora and crashed heavily to the ground.

The power of a heavy impact is calculated based on body weight; the heavier the body, the greater the power. In the game, the maximum power is 150, but it's definitely not the same in reality.

Even without seeing a meteorite, an alpaca could be nearly killed by a falling object. Therefore, the power of a heavy impact attack can be increased without limit as the alpaca's weight increases.

"Hercules, attack Boscodor, use 100,000 horsepower!" Yang Er quickly ordered Hercules to rescue the crocodile.

Heracross, his entire body covered in golden earth element, unleashed his full power as he rammed into Aggron.

"Sharp stone attack!"

Aggron twisted its body and lashed its tail at the ground, sending stone blades piercing up from the ground and extending toward Heracross.

Boom! Boom! Boom...!

Several rocks were broken by Heracross, but were eventually knocked away, failing to break the attack of the sharp stones.

Heracross of the second generation is very powerful, but unfortunately its physical attack was reduced by 1 level, so it naturally cannot break through the Stone Edge attack.

"Big Character Explosion!" Xiao Mao seized the opportunity to command.

Salamence spewed a ball of fire at Heracross, the flames forming a large "X" shape as they flew, like a giant net, trying to trap Heracross.

"Water cannons!"

The powerful crocodile had already stood up and sprayed water cannons to block the large flames. The flames collided with the water, producing a large amount of water vapor.

"Salamander, use Hurricane!"

442: The third round of doubles, Xiaomao VS Yuta

"Roar!!"

Salamence flapped its blood-red wings, a sharp whistling sound emanating from it, dispersing the water vapor on the field and revealing Heracross's figure.

"Mighty Crocodile, use the water cannon to attack the Salamence!" Yang Er hurriedly ordered.

"Sharp Stone Attack Scattering!" Shigeru immediately retaliated.

The powerful crocodile unleashed a water cannon, which was blocked by the timely attack of the sharp stone released by Aggron. The wind blades in the storm condensed and quickly landed on Heracross.

"Hera!!"

Heracross let out a wail as his body was blown off the field, crashing into the wall and losing consciousness.

"Heracross is incapacitated," the referee announced immediately.

"Under Xiao Shi's fierce attack, Yang Er's Heracross fell first. Now, Mighty Crocodile faces a one-against-two situation. How can he turn the tide?"

The audience members in the stands also breathed a sigh of relief.

"That Shigeru, why can't he just use the old Pokémon? Why does he have to use a new one?"

"Grandpa Mao, I know you want to train new Pokémon, but please don't play with fire, or I'll disown you as my grandpa."

"Exactly! Can't you just finish them off quickly and decisively? That's the protagonist's character! Where's all that arrogance from the Quartz Conference?!"

"Yeah, where did that spirit from the Silver Tournament go? What's the point of this evenly matched duel?"

"You have to be a real man for 5 seconds, and you have to kill your opponent in three moves at most."

The audience made all sorts of outrageous noises.

"Bosscodora, heavy ram!" Shigeru commanded.

"More!"

Aggron mobilized the steel element within its body, covering its entire form, and charged towards the Mighty Crocodile.

"Mighty Crocodile, use brute force!" Yang Er commanded. He did not hold back just because there was only one Mighty Crocodile left, but chose to confront it head-on.

"crocodile!"

Crocodile unleashed its full power and charged toward Aggron. As it approached, Crocodile struck out with its palms, slapping the steel element energy on Aggron's shell. The terrifying brute force shattered the steel element energy, and its palms struck the steel armor.

With a clang!

The crocodile used its brute force to shatter the steel element energy, but it failed to shake Aggron's body.

"crocodile...!"

The crocodile tried to lift Bosscodora, but it couldn't lift it at all; Bosscodora didn't even budge—it was too heavy.

"Metal claws!" Shigeru commanded.

"More!"

Bosscopter's two hands slapped at Crocodile's head from the left and right, but Crocodile's hands were still gripping Bosscopter's body, making it impossible for Crocodile to defend itself.

Snapped! !

After being hit twice by Iron 13, the crocodile's eyes rolled back, its head buzzed, and its body involuntarily fell towards Bosscodora, landing on top of it.

"Doraemon."

Bosscodora took a few steps back in disgust, letting Crocodile lie on the ground.

The referee glanced at Feraligatr and immediately announced, "Feraligatr is unable to battle. Both of Yang Er's Pokémon are unable to battle. The winner of this match is Xiao Shi.

"Congratulations to Xiao Mao for winning the second round of the preliminary tournament," the host congratulated him.

"come back."

Shigeru recalled Salamence and Aggron, and then glanced at Yoji.

Yoji turned away unwillingly. After all, he was full of confidence at the beginning of the battle and was going to defeat Shigeru. In the end, he couldn't even defeat a single Pokémon of Shigeru. Not to mention defeating a Pokémon, he didn't even cause any effective damage.

Although Aggron was attacked several times, it didn't seem to hurt at all, and it could even continue to fight in the afternoon.

After the match ended, Shigeru didn't watch the rest of the matches. Instead, he went to the Pokémon Center in the player village and handed Aggron and Salamence over to Nurse Joy for treatment.

We'll be using Salamence in the afternoon's match. Don't ask why, its EX Intimidate is invincible.

"Ash is still the same as always." Back in his room, Gary watched the match on Field C.

Ash, just like in the original story, used Pokémon from the Hoenn region to participate in the competition. He narrowly won the second round of the battle, almost losing.

Because there weren't many venues for today's matches, all 16 matches were scheduled to finish before 11 a.m., and some matches were even finished by 10 a.m.

There are only 8 matches in the afternoon, starting at 2 pm and expected to finish in less than an hour. After that, the players will be given a day to rest before the final championship begins.

...!

As afternoon approached, the contestants gathered at their respective competition venues.

At 2 p.m. sharp, the third round of doubles matches officially began.

"Please welcome Otome and Taro to the match."

The first match of the afternoon began.

The match was very intense, with both players giving their all. In the end, the female player won and advanced to the final tournament.

After two matches...!

"Now, please welcome Shigeru and Yuta to the stage."

The third match was Xiao Mao's turn.

Shigeru and Yuta stood up from the players' area and entered the arena through the passageway.

"The next two contestants are Gary and Shigeru, who comes from the far-off Kanto region. He performed exceptionally well in the first two matches, without losing a single Pokémon."

"Yuta is from Slateport City. He lost one Pokémon in his last match. I wonder how he'll fare in his third match?"

The host briefly introduced the two contestants.

Shigeru and Yuta stood in the command area, facing each other without saying a word.

"Are you both ready?" the referee asked.

"All right."

"Ah."

Both of them nodded, holding two Poké Balls that had already been prepared in their hands.

Seeing that both players were ready, the referee announced, "The doubles match between Shigeru and Yuuta will now begin. Please release your Pokémon."

"Whether we win or not depends on you guys!" Yuta threw out a Poké Ball.

Great!!
