Chapter 408

However.

From the determined expression now on the girl's face, it was clear.

She had great confidence in this battle!

It seemed she had also gained some experience from that earlier defeat!

But even with accumulated experience,

it would be utterly useless before Su Lin's absolute power!

In fact, it would only crush her own confidence further!

That is precisely the point!

Therefore, excessive confidence in any matter is never a good thing.

Only caution ensures long-term success!

"The second battle! Begin!"

At Gym Leader Tang Lin's command, this battle commenced.

However, Su Lin did not intend to switch his Pokémon.

He would have Swampert continue fighting.

Although not switching Pokémon might allow the opposing Trainer to exploit its weaknesses,

Su Lin had no fear of that at all.

He would even welcome it!

Because Su Lin's Pokémon was Swampert!

But do not forget!

This Swampert possesses the Grass Pelt ability!

It is immune to Grass-type moves! Na.

347: If you cannot counter, force the opponent to weaken themselves through attacks.

"Su Lin! Are you still going to use Swampert?!"

The girl standing opposite Su Lin, seeing that he had not recalled Swampert,

immediately shouted at him.

Wasn't this situation, right before her eyes, simply handing her an opportunity!?

However, she was not foolish!

The fact that Su Lin's Swampert could be immune to Grass-type moves

had already spread among everyone!

Su Lin's "393" Swampert could be immune to damage from Grass-type moves.

Who did not know that!

Of course, this did not exclude those who were overly eager.

People caught up in Pokémon battles would not think so deeply.

They would simply rely on their general knowledge of Pokémon to battle the opponent's.

If someone else used Swampert, there would be no mistake.

In fact, the battle would proceed very smoothly!

But!

When the opponent using Swampert in this battle was Su Lin,

and they chose to use a Grass-type Pokémon to fight Su Lin's Swampert,

it would be no different from seeking death!

After all, they could not deal super-effective damage; instead, their attacks would be completely nullified.

Then what point was there in fighting at all!

Immunity to Grass-type moves!

This was even more terrifying than merely resisting part of the damage from Grass-type moves!

After all, it meant no damage could be dealt.

This was the most fatal factor!

"Yes, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Su Lin stepped aside, looking at the girl, whose appearance was indeed quite pretty, and said.

His tone was very relaxed; there was no sign of any concern on Su Lin's part regarding his Pokémon.

Perhaps this was simply the result of standing before absolute power.

There was no need to worry about anything!

If it were anyone else, they would likely already be anxious and worried!

"Good! Su Lin! If that is the case, then I will use..."

"Go! Breloom! 【!!"

After receiving Su Lin's response, the girl hesitated not at all and immediately sent Breloom into battle!

Although at this moment, Grass-type moves could not deal damage to Su Lin's Swampert,

Su Lin's Swampert likewise could not deal significant damage to Breloom!

Because Breloom possessed a fifty percent resistance to Ground-type and Water-type moves!

That meant!

Normally, either of those two moves could deal 100 points of damage to the opponent.

But against a Shroomish, it could only inflict 50 points of damage!

It directly negated half!

One could even say it was nearly immune to the opponent's attacks!

That was no exaggeration!

After all, many people would not undertake such thankless tasks!

Inflicting little damage on the opponent while their own Pokémon would be left panting from releasing these moves.

Who would do such a thing!

Take Su Lin at this very moment!

He would absolutely not use these two moves against the opponent recklessly.

But at a critical moment, even if it cost some effort, he would still use them!

Because once these two moves were used, victory was assured!

For instance, using Mud Bomb to restrict the opponent's movement...

This series of maneuvers.

That would still be acceptable.

If it could not inflict damage on the opponent, restricting their movement was still possible!

Su Lin's Swampert and the opponent's Shroomish.

Had both already entered the Pokémon battle arena.

This battle had officially begun!

Although Gym Leader Tang Lin had called for the start, did not the Pokémon need to be on the field first?

Otherwise, what kind of Pokémon battle would this be!

348: No type advantage, extremely confident

"Shroomish! Use Mach Punch! Take down Swampert!"

The girl hesitated not a bit, directly choosing to launch an attack on Su Lin's Swampert.

Presumably, after the battle just now.

Su Lin's Swampert must have nearly exhausted its stamina.

Even if not completely depleted, it must have lost at least sixty or seventy percent.

Otherwise, this situation would be impossible!

After all, in that previous battle, Su Lin's Swampert had released quite a few moves!

After releasing so many moves, could it possibly remain like a Pokémon that had done nothing?
