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

Page 305

Without a word, Shigeru recalled Salamence; he wasn't a master of type reversal.

After recalling Salamence, Gary sent out another Pokémon.

Swampert, come back in!

Gary once again sent out Swampert, who had the home advantage.

"This guy...!" Yui was a little angry. She thought that Shigeru rarely switched Pokémon in previous battles, so she thought he was a very arrogant person. How come he switched Pokémon so frequently when it was her turn?

Although Yui also wanted to replace her Pokémon, none of her remaining Pokémon could fight Swampert on the Water Field.

"Puddington, sing!" Yui commanded.

"Pop~ Pop pop pop~ Pop pop li...!" Jigglypuff sang a beautiful song, and Jigglypuff's singing had a much stronger hypnotic effect than Jigglypuff.

"Dive underwater," Shigeru commanded.

Swampert plunged into the water, where sound doesn't travel well, so singing naturally wouldn't work.

Swampert quickly swam to the surface beneath Wigglytuff, ready to attack at any moment.

"Iron Tail!"

As soon as the command was given, Swampert leaped out of the water, curled its body into a ball, covered its tail with steel-type energy, and then spun down at high speed.

"Use the round shape to block." Yui could only let Jigglypuff block because Jigglypuff couldn't swim. Although its body was all fat and it could float on the water, it didn't know how to swim.

Yui has decided that after the Ayayu Tournament, she will go back and teach Fat Cat to swim.

Bang!

Wigglytuff used its round body to block Swampert's Iron Tail. After the collision, Wigglytuff was slapped away like a ball and suffered considerable damage.

Pfft! !

"Bokori!"

Wigglytuff landed on the water's surface, looking pained. Although it was a struggle, it managed to block Swampert's Iron Tail. However, now that Wigglytuff was in the water and its body was floating on the surface, it couldn't move around easily.

"Swampraken, keep using Iron Tail," Gary commanded.

However, after the command was given, Swampert stood motionless on the floating platform.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Mao asked, puzzled.

Yui, who was in the command area on the other side, understood what was going on. She saw Swampert staring at Jigglypuff with a perverted look on its face.

"Oh! Swampert is mesmerized!" the host exclaimed.

Xiaomao: (⊙o⊙)…!

Xiao Mao slapped his forehead.

Oh no! I forgot that Jigglypuff has a charming body.

"Puddington, great opportunity, use the loud voice!" Yui quickly launched her attack.

"Pop!!"

Although it cannot move on water, Roar is an area-of-effect attack, and since the distance between Jigglypuff and Swampert is not far, Roar can hit them completely.

Shigeru didn't rush to recall Swampert, watching as the sound wave knocked Swampert into the water.

The Swamp Monster, still looking like a madman, hadn't yet snapped out of its trance.

"Swamp Monster, come back." Gary immediately recalled Swamp Monster.

Although it didn't defeat Jigglypuff, Swampert has done enough; the equation to defeat Jigglypuff is complete.

"Salamander, you're in charge of ending the first half." Gary threw out a Poké Ball.

Baton!

"Roar!!"

Salamence reappears, activating EX Intimidate.

Wigglypuff is affected by EX Intimidate, reducing its Attack and Defense by 1 level.

"Puddington, use your seductive voice!"

"Salamander, use Hurricane!"

Both sides issued commands simultaneously, and the enchanting voices soared into the sky, but were blown away by the storm. Countless wind blades fell on the water's surface, and Jigglypuff was subjected to the storm's baptism and was directly knocked into the water. When the storm subsided, Jigglypuff resurfaced, its eyes darting around.

"Jiggling is unable to battle, Salamence wins."

The referee announced, "Yui's three Pokémon are unable to battle, and the intermission is now in session."

At the end of the first half, Shigeru shut out Yui, and the two left the field to rest in the rest area, quietly waiting for the second half.

Although there are restrictions in this year's Rainbow Tournament, Gary still doesn't feel any pressure. The only competitor who can put pressure on Gary is Ash.

10 minutes later...!

After halftime, Shigeru and Yui returned to the field.

"Go, Xiao Mao! Win another complete victory!"

"Brother Mao, please, just lose one Pokémon, give Yui some face."

"Sigh, even Uniqlo isn't good enough, the difference is too big."

"Gao and Latios are useless, how are we going to win?"

Although there is still a second half to go, most of the spectators already know that the outcome is decided. They are now focused on the result of the match: will Ash win decisively, or will he lose to one or two Pokémon?

Those who come to watch the competition live, even if they are not rich, must have some spare money and hope to make a small fortune through this annual competition.

Even if the odds aren't high, betting on a favorite like Xiao Mao is practically a guaranteed win.

"The second half of the game has begun. Let's see what kind of field it is," the commentator said.

On the large screen, the roulette wheel and cursor kept flashing, finally stopping on the leaf icon, the Grass Field.

The venue has been selected.

The referee announced, "The second half of the match between Shigeru and Yui will now begin. The match will end when one side loses all of their Pokémon. Both sides may freely switch Pokémon. Now, both players, please release your Pokémon simultaneously."

The words fell.

Shigeru and Yui threw out their Pokémon.

Baton!

【LV49 Houndoom♂/Gym】

Baton!

【LV60 Gardevoir♀/Elite Four】

"Yui's Pokémon is Houndoom, and Gary's Pokémon is Gardevoir. This Gardevoir has been very impressive in previous matches," the commentator said.

"The match is over. This Gardevoir is far stronger than Houndoom can handle."

"Haha, I bet on a complete victory in the second half, made a small profit, awesome!"

"Hahahaha... I bet on a clean sheet, 3x odds, I'm rich! I'm rich!"

"Brother Mao, if you do this, the other Pokémon won't have a chance to play. Is that really a good idea?"

453: Uniqlo admits defeat

Gary sent out Gardevoir, and some were happy while others were worried. Those who were happy were those who bet on Gary to win the second half and shut out the entire match; those who were worried were the opposite, and most of them bet on Gary to lose one or two Pokémon.

The battle begins.

"Houndoom, use Flamethrower!"

"Gardevoir, Moon Power!"

The two issued the commands almost simultaneously.

Gardevoir gathered pink fairy energy all over its body, forming a pink ball of light in front of it, waiting for Houndoom's flames to attack before throwing the energy ball out.

The energy ball formed from fairy energy touched the flames, immediately suppressing them and striking Houndoom.

boom! !

The power of the moon exploded, causing considerable damage to Houndoom.

"Take down Houndoom, Aura Missile!" The gap between the two sides is huge, and Shigeru will not show any mercy.

"What?!"

Gardevoir quickly conjured a blue Aura Sphere, which locked onto Houndoom and flew out.

"Use flamethrower!" Yui continued to put up a stubborn resistance.

Houndoom spewed out flames, but the flames were no match for either suppressing or detonating the Aura Sphere. The Aura Sphere pierced through the flames and struck Houndoom's body.

Boom! !

Houndoom was blasted away and lay on its side on the ground, its eyes darting around.

"Houndoom is unable to battle, Gardevoir wins!" the referee declared.

Yui gritted her teeth, recalled Houndoom, and then sent out the next Pokémon.

Baton!

【LV46 Iron-Faced Ninja♂/Dojo】

Yui sent out Ninjamas, which is type-advantageous against Gardevoir. Combined with Ninjamas's extremely high speed, it is an extremely difficult Pokémon to deal with.

Unfortunately, Gary's Gardevoir is very good at dealing with Ninjazuka, or more accurately, very good at dealing with Pokémon that move by flying alone.

"Gravity!" Shigeru commanded.

Gardevoir's eyes glowed blue, and a heavy pressure descended upon the entire arena. The Iron-Faced Ninja, who was accelerating, was directly suppressed to the ground and unable to move.

The Iron-Faced Ninja is very fast, but he moves entirely by flying. A single gravity attack can suppress the Iron-Faced Ninja.

"return!"

Yui didn't waste any words and immediately sent the Iron-Faced Ninja back. Continuing to fight would only result in his death, and she wouldn't do something so foolish.
