Chapter 1437
Su Hao's reason for wanting to battle the Elite Four was simple.
He just wanted to see how much of a gap still existed between him and the Elite Four, and by the way, check the results of the special training of Incineroar, Hisuian Braviary, and Lucario during this period.
Just as he said before, it didn't matter whether he won or lost. If possible, he still wanted to have a battle with the ace of the Elite Four.
Only then could he more intuitively decide at what stage to challenge the Elite Four of the Shenzhou Alliance.
On the side, Alston, who knew François relatively well and had battled him several times, said in a deep voice: "Although it's not his ace, his Greninja can be considered in the top four of his main team. That unpredictable 'Protean' ability is simply a nightmare for opponents."
"Coupled with that extremely agile skill, even when facing a late Elite-level opponent, that Greninja can entangle with it for a long time, and even find an opportunity to defeat the opponent with a super-high-power super-effective move. It is an extremely difficult enemy."
Sofia nodded in agreement: "Su Hao's ace Diancie is a Rock and Fairy-type Pokémon, which is mutually restrictive with Greninja. When the levels are similar, the outcome depends on who has a stronger foundation."
The short discussion ended, and the battle between Diancie and Greninja also began.
"Greninja, Double Team!"
François narrowed his eyes, intending to disturb Diancie's vision first, and then fight with continuous strikes. This was Greninja's common fighting style.
"Koga!"
Greninja responded, its body shook slightly, and countless shadow clones emerged, occupying almost all the surrounding space.
Just this move alone showed how strong a foundation Greninja had under François's training.
Su Hao remained unmoved on his side: "Geomancy!"
François's expression became serious. A move name he hadn't heard before, with the word "Earth" in it. Could it be some kind of Ground-type move?
It seems Su Hao wants to clear the shadow clones with a wide-range Ground-type move.
François shouted to remind: "Greninja, watch out for the shockwave!"
Greninja also set up its stance, watching Diancie vigilantly, but the next instant, until Diancie was surrounded by colorful mist, they realized that the so-called Geomancy was actually a strengthening move!
François, who secretly thought he had been tricked, hurriedly said: "Interrupt its strengthening, Hydro Pump!"
Countless Greninja condensed rushing water. Looking at that posture and momentum, no one could guess which Greninja was the real one, and from which direction the attack would come.
If it were an ordinary Pokémon, it would definitely be unable to hold back and interrupt the strengthening, dealing with Greninja's attack in a panic.
But Diancie's strengthening was just a formality. After all, it had long practiced the technique of maintaining the strengthening state in a normal state and turned it into an instinct!
Just by probing with Aura, Su Hao knew which one was Greninja's main body.
But there was no need for that.
"Diamond Storm!"
In the eyes of the four watching, as Su Hao's indifferent voice fell, a terrifying power erupted with Diancie as the center. In an instant, countless diamonds danced in the entire space, just like the deadliest weapons exuding the most beautiful light, releasing their power to their heart's content.
Those shadow clones didn't last even a second in front of Diamond Storm, and they all dissipated. Greninja's main body, which was hiding among them, even if it used all its strength to defend, and Hydro Pump was fired like it didn't cost money, it seemed so powerless in front of the raging Diamond Storm.
