Chapter 908: Former Champion
"Yo! Who is battling whom?"
The sudden female voice made the Dojo crowd turn their heads.
Only to see a brown-haired young woman wearing a emerald green off-shoulder knit sweater, with enchanting and pretty makeup, walking over with a smile.
"Master's wife!"
"Good morning, Master's wife!"
"An outside Trainer who wants to drink Max Soup is having a trial battle!"
Everyone bowed respectfully and explained in a jumble, making way for a path.
Honey smiled and hooked her arm around Master Mustard's shoulder, "Honey~"
"Hmm, just in time! Comfort little Klara and little Avery, the old man is going to fight!"
Mustard laughed, and in the surprised eyes of all the Dojo disciples, he said with high fighting spirit: "You guys can't handle this person, let me come!"
Saying that, he strode into the field.
Although All Baimu didn't apply for a break, in order to repair the uneven field and wait for the many status changes that occurred in the previous battle to expire.
Everyone tacitly paused for ten minutes.
Honey was blank, looking at Avery, who was lost, and Klara, who was on the verge of tears in the crowd.
"What exactly happened?"
Too many people spoke just now, and she didn't hear clearly, "Let your senior brother say it!"
The dark-skinned young man who communicated with All Baimu last night respectfully explained the ins and outs, including the misunderstanding related to Avery.
Honey nodded knowingly, "So that's it~"
Instead, she smiled and went to comfort Avery and Klara.
As the Master's wife who usually takes care of everyone, she not only concurrently handles business such as cleaning, cooking, management, and publicity, but also cares for the mental health of the disciples.
The disciples of the Dojo all respect and love her very much.
Inside the field.
Gengar chewed the berries that restored stamina and gave a thumbs up to the Trainer.
"Gen~gar"
Delicious! Tasty!
"Don't get carried away, you still need to be responsible for two more —"
All Baimu didn't finish his sentence, looked suspiciously at Mustard standing opposite, and said loudly: "Master Mustard?"
"He-he-he, the old man saw a hunter and felt happy, and also wanted to join in, you won't mind, right?"
Mustard, who acted first and reported later, laughed: "Win against me, and I'll pass your trial battle directly, no need to waste time, how about it?"
That would definitely be desired.
All Baimu looked at Gengar and nodded slightly.
"Good!"
Mustard threw his round hat and sports jacket excitedly, leaped into the air and turned, and landed with a bang after making people dizzy!
Two drooping eyebrows raised high like dragon whiskers!
No doubt.
This was exactly the most classic signature move of the former Galar Champion who had served for eighteen consecutive terms.
Gengar's mouth opened into an O-shape.
It was the first time it had seen an opponent who could play more than it.
Amazing!
Mustard laughed loudly: "Facing a strong enemy, my blood is boiling for the first time in a long time! Young man! Take out your full strength!"
The black Ultra Ball flew out.
Bang!
White light landed.
A humanoid white weasel with slender eyes slowly opened its eyes.
"Mienshao~"
Mienshao called out softly, alert and silent, looking at Gengar, and slowly raised its right foot together with Mustard.
【One-legged stance】.
The near-synchronous movements were quite pleasing to the eye.
More importantly, a kind of 【Momentum】 that was invisible to the naked eye but constantly stimulated All Baimu's senses condensed on them.
For some reason.
He actually had the illusion that he couldn't find a "flaw" in Mienshao, even though the attributes and even other elements were in his favor.
Let's observe for now.
"Master, come on!"
"Honey, come on!"
The Dojo crowd cheered, and Avery and Klara also shouted in unison.
The one-sided sound made Gengar's smile collapse.
Old man!
You are very good at fighting, right!
It looked unhappily at Mustard and Mienshao, turned its head and shouted:
"Gen~gar!"
"Alright."
All Baimu responded.
Ignoring his strange feeling, having the retired old Champion serve as the first foreign enemy undoubtedly opened a good start for Gengar's future Mega Evolution battles.
Although the biased audience made this show-off very dissatisfied.
Where is the applause?
It won so beautifully, where is the applause?
The Trainers in this region are really too impolite!
"Gen——gar!"
hen——xin!
Gengar shouted loudly, with a serious face, and performed a series of classic transformation moves.
All Baimu behind it took out the Key Stone, which shone with the Mega Stone on its left ear.
In an instant.
Colorful light enveloped its bulky body, really like a Kamen Rider!
The Dojo crowd looked at this scene in shock, only Mustard and Honey, who were well-informed, understood what specifically happened.
This former Champion said: "Agility!"
"Mienshao!"
Mienshao leaned slightly, tapped its toes on the ground, and suddenly turned into a white shadow and rushed out!
In an instant.
It had arrived behind Mega Gengar like lightning, facing the air current blowing its whiskers, flames ignited on the tips of its claws.
"Blaze Kick!"
"Mienshao!"
Mienshao roared and used the kick!
Burn!
The flames quickly brushed past the air, the sound muffled like a drum!
The old master is indeed the old master.
Not to mention the explosive speed and skilled movement techniques, the ability to grasp the timing alone far exceeded that of young people, actually being able to fluently use two moves in such a short time.
And there was no pause in the middle!
As if All Baimu, who was still bullying the weak in the Diamond rank a few minutes ago, was forcibly pulled to the King rank —
Even if it was an old King from S1S2.
But this fast and fierce Blaze Kick failed to hit Mega Gengar.
It, which turned from gray-black to white, melted into the shadow the moment the opponent appeared, crossing paths with the kick.
As Mienshao landed, turned around, and stomped its feet, Mega Gengar had completely lost its trace.
"Mienshao......"
It observed the surroundings alertly.
Mustard was also a bit surprised, then laughed: "Heh! This is interesting! Close your eyes! Don't use your eyes to observe, go feel its Qi!"
"Mienshao!"
Mienshao closed its eyes, its small ears in charge of east and west, two whiskers shaking slightly.
Qi?
Did I come to the world of Dragon Ball?
All Baimu frowned.
The biggest difference between Pokémon animation battles and game battles is that sometimes some unexpected things appear.
It is neither a move, nor an ability, nor can it be called a prop.
Similar to Ash's 【Counter Shield】, it is absurd, but it can exert excellent effects.
Recalling the 【Momentum】 that Mustard and Mienshao condensed before the battle, All Baimu believed that the opponent would definitely use some "off-field tricks."
"Sludge Wave."
To be safe, test it with a long-range attack, and let the poison liquid spread on the ground to reduce Mienshao's range of motion!
High altitude.
Mega Gengar laughed strangely and poked out its pink ghost claws.
Mustard suddenly shouted:
"It's out! Knock Off!"
"Mienshao!"
A flash of light flashed in Mienshao's eyes, its figure flew up like a drifting breeze, and shot out like an arrow from a bow!
Fast! High!
Fast and high!
All Baimu only felt that he had blinked, and Mienshao had approached Mega Gengar in the high sky.
It swung its sleeve-like fur.
Pop!
Like a firecracker exploding.
Mienshao's expression was very solemn.
——Missed!
It thought this move aimed at Mega Gengar's head would definitely hit, and it might be able to knock it to the ground.
Who knew that the opponent didn't show its head, and even retracted the claws it had just extended.
Bait?
Mienshao knew it was bad.
But it couldn't stay in the air after its old strength was exhausted, so it could only let itself fall.
At the same time.
Mega Gengar showed its head again; it was no longer the novice who was caught repeatedly.
It knew very well how to resist these opponents with predictive abilities.
"Gen~gar!"
Two light pink ghost claws rubbed circles, a deep purple sticky liquid grew from small to large, and then burst with a bang, forming a sky full of poison waves and spilling down!
Mustard said calmly: "Wide Guard!"
Hum!
Countless earthy yellow hexagonal light shields spread out, forming a wide glorious dome.
Poison waves fell rapidly.
Thud!
The light shield trembled violently!
Mienshao landed quickly, but its gaze was fixed on the glorious dome that blocked the poison waves outside.
After finding cracks on the surface, it ran wildly toward the place where the poison liquid hadn't leaked. It just took two steps, and the poison liquid smashed the Wide Guard's light shield, falling down like a waterfall!
Rumble!
The monstrous poison wave quickly swallowed the ground, constantly squeezing Mienshao's range of motion.
The Dojo crowd exclaimed.
Wide Guard was actually broken!
How fierce must the attack be to break the Wide Guard's light shield!?
Mustard's long eyebrows jumped, very surprised that Mega Gengar possessed such terrifying Special Attack output.
And the opponent had also lost its trace again.
"..."
All Baimu didn't give an order, although he only found one chance to attack since the battle started, he wasn't impatient.
Using many moves and being able to win are two different things.
Dealing with Champion-level opponents, he was used to peeking at the opponent's flaws before attacking, avoiding the opponent having countermeasures that would cause his side to capsize in the gutter.
His hand was full of trump cards, he could win by playing slowly!
"Headache~"
Mustard shook his head, seeing Mienshao pushed to the edge, took out a ball and said: "Baton Pass!"
"Mienshao!"
Mienshao hid, dim white light shone on its fur, and it entered the Poké Ball.
【Baton Pass】.
Normal-type move, has the effect of ignoring the 【Shadow Tag】 ability and inheriting its own status changes to the next companion who enters the field.
Bang.
Another Poké Ball opened.
The majestic Corviknight entered the field.
"Caw——!!"
The harsh crow cry echoed over the field.
Although he had just learned about the means of wild Corviknight not long ago, it was clear that this one cultivated by Mustard was much stronger in terms of body size, momentum, or volume.
The most critical thing is —
It is not afraid of poison, and possesses flight mobility.
Corviknight circled over the field, observing every corner keenly.
All Baimu saw it, but didn't feel as nervous as before.
"..."
Perhaps there was no Fighting attribute, or perhaps it wasn't a human body, there was no such round, dripping-proof 【Momentum】 between Mustard and Corviknight.
Good opportunity!
He passed the command in his heart.
"Hee-hee-hee!"
On the ground covered with poison, Mega Gengar laughed strangely and drilled out.
Corviknight, circling in the sky, didn't hesitate to fold its wings and dive down!
Mustard: "Taunt!"
"Caw——Caw?"
Corviknight's crowing stopped abruptly, and it suddenly spread its wings and flapped to fly back to the sky at a folding angle, only because a layer of blue light appeared on its body at some point.
And the red cross that appeared in front of Mega Gengar.
【Imprison】?
Mustard was very surprised that the command was predicted, and quickly said: "Drill Peck!"
Change moves don't work, then fight!
"Caw!"
Corviknight folded its wings again.
"Haze."
"Gen~gar!"
Mega Gengar looked straight at Corviknight rushing down with silver light, opened its mouth wide, and black mist rolled!
In the blink of an eye, both sides were submerged.
But the next second.
Corviknight rushed out of the smoke with silver light, and flew to a high place, but its speed was far from as fast as before.
Mustard's expression became solemn.
"Empty again?"
Mega Gengar's hiding ability was simply unbelievable, and several moves that he thought could play a decisive role failed because of this ability.
Even if he could judge when the opponent appeared through Qi.
He couldn't stop it from disappearing.
And he sent Corviknight originally to save Mienshao's field, who knew it had been so long, and it had suffered consecutive defeats and fell into a disadvantage.
Looking at All Baimu.
Previously, he still maintained caution, but after Corviknight appeared, he changed his thinking and moved forward aggressively.
Knowing his own affairs, Corviknight's advantage over Mienshao was based on the opponent being Mega Gengar, and the actual strength of the two Pokémon could be seen from the attributes.
He was once a Champion specializing in Fighting attributes.
After coming to the Isle of Armor, he also opened a Dojo.
Mustard put on a martial arts stance, gradually appeased the delusions in his heart, and decided to use amplification moves other than the Imprison effect to force Mega Gengar to show up.
"Bulk——"
Before the words were finished.
Mega Gengar showed its head in the higher sky first, its pitch-black eyes glowing with blood, and made a piercing mocking sound.
"Hee-hee-hee~"
At that time, Corviknight had just entered the field. Based on Mustard's daily cultivation of it, Mega Gengar's Taunt was probably difficult to take effect, so using Imprison to block Taunt was the optimal solution.
And now the two sides had fought several times.
Corviknight had repeatedly fallen into a disadvantage. Unless it had no interest in winning against Mega Gengar, its state of mind would definitely have flaws.
Just as All Baimu thought.
Taunt hit, and Corviknight, rushing toward Mega Gengar, was forcibly interrupted while using Bulk Up.
The opponent had become a turtle in a jar!
All Baimu said: "Double Team!"
"Gen~gar!"
Mega Gengar no longer hid, seeing Corviknight rushing toward it, it transformed into ten thousand pale ghost shadows at a very fast speed.
The situation took a turn for the worse.
Mustard tried to take out the ball to exchange, and was surprised to find that the recall beam didn't work.
Looking closely, he found that when Corviknight was shrouded in red light, a familiar ghost face appeared in the shadow on the ground.
He was stunned: "Shadow Tag?"
All Baimu was also stunned: "He doesn't know Mega Gengar's ability is Shadow Tag?"
"Hee-hee-hee!!"
Countless Mega Gengars were overjoyed, raised their jagged pink claws high, and instantly condensed giant black-purple energy balls in their palms!
The next instant.
The sky full of Shadow Balls smashed toward Corviknight like a storm, instantly submerging it!
Boom——!!
"Caw!"
The smoke of the explosion just rose, and Corviknight inside screamed loudly, flapping its wings to disperse it!
It stared sharply at the sky full of Mega Gengars, although it was difficult to catch this guy who hid its head and showed its tail, the excellent defense meant it wouldn't be killed in one hit just like that!
Mustard shouted: "Hurricane!"
The milky white storm that pierced the sky spread across the field as Corviknight flapped its wings frantically, sweeping all the fake Mega Gengars in one go.
The field lost the opponent's figure again, as if it had hidden in another dimension to look for an opportunity —
No.
It slowly poked its head out on Corviknight's back, laughing particularly sinisterly.
"Gen~gar~"
Mustard shouted anxiously: "Use your back to slam into the ground!"
Hiss—
Boiling lightning began to flicker on Mega Gengar, and then pierced through Corviknight's pitch-black body!
【Thunderbolt】! ===== CHAPTER 909 =====
