Chapter 555

The sixth level was a man with a horse face, around thirty years old.

"Your traits are truly obvious, so you are Wu Ma?"

"That's right! You've already cleared six levels in a row. I don't want to take advantage of you; you can choose to rest!"

"No need. I came here to break the record!"

"What ambition!"

Bai Jing asked, "By the way, since this tower was built, has anyone ever successfully cleared it?"

Wu Ma smiled faintly, "No!"

This indeed surprised Bai Jing!

"What about the highest record?"

Wu Ma recalled, "One reached the eleventh level and lost narrowly! Another reached the tenth level, also losing narrowly! The rest, most of the 967, stopped at the ninth level."

"Of course, if there were sufficient time to rest, perhaps someone could create a miracle!"

Bai Jing nodded, understanding his meaning!

Continuous battles, with opponents growing stronger and stronger, this is huge pressure on the Pokémon, and also a burden on the Trainer's spirit.

Of course, if you have several powerful Pokémon taking turns to appear, it can indeed greatly reduce the pressure.

Wu Ma asked again, "Are you sure you don't want to rest?"

"No need. I once fought ten consecutive battles and won them all; my spiritual power is unlike ordinary people!"

"Alright, battle begin!"

Wu Ma released a Zebstrika.

Zebstrika

Gender: Male

Type: Electric

Ability: Motor Drive

Stats: HP (B), Attack (A), Defense (C), Sp. Atk (B), Sp. Def (C), Speed (A)

Potential: Elite Four

Strength: Elite Four (Mid-stage)

This time, Bai Jing chose Dragonite.

Dragonite

Gender: None

Type: Flying, Dragon

Ability: Infiltrator

Stats: HP (S), Attack (B), Defense (A), Sp. Atk (S), Sp. Def (A), Speed (SS)

Potential: Champion

Strength: Elite Four (Early-stage)

Laws: Flying (1%)

The Flying type is countered by Electric, but the Dragon type has Electric resistance which can halve the damage; they cancel each other out, so there is no counter.

Question: Why not send out Tyranitar or Gible, since Ground is immune to the Electric type?

Because Zebstrika, besides the Electric type, can also use Normal-type moves; if the strength difference is too great, both of them couldn't withstand a few hits from it.

"Zebstrika, use Volt Wave!"

A wave of electricity surged toward the Dragonite in mid-air; this is a move that never misses!

"Air Slash!"

A slash cutting through the air dispersed the electric wave, its momentum unbroken as it struck toward Zebstrika.

"Dodge!"

"Discharge!"

Zebstrika dodged nimbly, then unleashed a massive discharge from its entire body, huge currents surging toward the sky.

"Dragon Pulse!"

The shockwave and the current collided, producing an explosion; thick smoke rolled up!

As the smoke cleared, the two Pokémon faced each other, one above and one below.

"Dragonite, Air Slash!"

Dragonite flapped its wings, and a series of tiny slash waves flew down!

"Zebstrika, run!"

Zebstrika ran quickly across the field, lightning flashing and thunder roaring from its body, dodging the attack of the slash wave rain.

"In the face of lightning, staying in the air is very dangerous!"

"Use Thunder!"

Zebstrika, while running, let out a cry; dark clouds gathered in the sky, with lightning coursing within them!

Boom—With a huge roar, a bolt of thunder raged down, aiming straight for Dragonite!

"Just don't get hit!"

"Dragonite, Double Team!"

In a flash, Dragonite created over a dozen clones, not only confusing the opponent but also confusing the thunder!
