Chapter 7

Bai Jing wasn't that foolish; after muttering to the Poké Ball for a moment, he pressed the switch, and the Lazy Otter appeared on the field.

It plopped straight onto the ground, utterly devoid of energy!

Everyone rubbed their eyes, stunned.

"Is that a Lazy Otter? Did I see that right?"

"No way? Someone actually chose this Pokémon?"

"What were they thinking? Is this even a battle-worthy Pokémon?"

Student Zhen Na stomped her foot in anger—how could such a sharp-minded person pick this Pokémon?

At this moment, she wanted to rush down and replace him!

Shen He laughed loudly, roaring with laughter!

"Are you stupid? You're not even a top student? You picked this thing as your starter? Are you here to make a joke?"

Everyone looked disappointed—this match had no suspense; Bai Jing was definitely going to lose!

"Who cares what Pokémon I picked? Even if I chose a Magikarp, I'd still beat your sorry ass!"

Lazy Otter

Gender: Male

Type: Normal (200%)

Ability: Strong Arm

Aptitude: Body (SSS), Physical Attack (SSS), Physical Defense (S), Special Attack (A), Special Defense (A), Speed (S)

Potential: Quasi-Legendary

Strength: Common (Early Stage)

Held Item: Legendary Tablet

Even without considering the skill power boost from the Tablet, just the Strong Arm ability alone would be enough to give the opponent a nightmare.

And with both combined, the effect was so terrifying Bai Jing himself could hardly imagine it!

Laugh all you want—there'll be time for crying later.

"Hmph! Desperate last-ditch effort!"

The referee shook his head and announced: "Match begins!"

Shen He didn't rush to attack; instead, he crossed his arms.

"Against a Pokémon like this, any attack will win!"

"Flame Bunny, use Ember!"

Flame Bunny opened its mouth and spat out a fire-type attack.

Bai Jing was even more direct: "Use Lazy."

Everyone wanted to laugh—did the Lazy Otter even need to use an ability? It was already being lazy.

The Ember struck the Lazy Otter, but it paid no mind—this weak attack couldn't even match its recovery rate.

Lazy restores HP.

The result: the Lazy Otter remained unharmed; Shen He's attack was completely wasted.

"Shen He, you idiot, can you even fight?"

"You can't even handle a Lazy Otter—what kind of Trainer are you?"

"A failure is just a failure—only good at embarrassing himself!"

The teachers on the sidelines shook their heads, unwilling to admit such a stupid student existed—his actions would drag the school's reputation through the mud.

Shen He growled, "I don't believe it!"

"Flame Bunny, keep using Ember!"

Everyone covered their faces—did this guy even have a brain?

"Lazy Otter, keep using Lazy!"

Result: the same as before!

Shen He looked baffled: "That's impossible… could I be doing it wrong?"

Bai Jing laughed wildly, mocking: "You stand there motionless letting me attack, and you still can't hurt me—can you even fight?"

Shen He snarled: "You must be cheating, right?"

Everyone slapped their foreheads—this guy was beyond saving. Just end it already!

"Cheating?"

Bai Jing sneered: "You're just stupid yourself!"

"The Lazy Otter may be lazy, but it's famously tough-skinned and thick-fleshed. Your Flame Bunny excels at physical attacks—yet you chose Ember, a special attack? Isn't that like using your weakness against its strength?"

"With moves like that, who else is stupid if not you? You're not just stupid—you're stupid to the extreme. I feel sorry for your mother for having you!"

Everyone nodded vigorously—that was exactly right!

But why did Bai Jing warn his opponent?
