Chapter 123
Staring at the eye-catching "Failure" characters in front of the screen, Lance's expression was full of astonishment, which finally turned into a relieved smile.
"Sure enough, I lost."
Honestly, from the time the battle was halfway through, he had this feeling—he might lose to these Bug-type Pokémon that looked incredibly weak.
The tactical level and pre-reading ability shown by the opponent far exceeded his expectations. In a single team, every Pokémon was equipped with a set of innovative combinations.
From the Weakness Policy he gave Kricketune at the start, it can be seen that it directly allowed Kricketune, as weak as it is, to have the ability to disrupt the opponent's rhythm as a starter.
If the opponent's luck was a little better, the situation might be even more unfavorable for him.
There is also the small combination of Protect and Speed Boost for injury-free strengthening, which also has a very high fit with Baton Pass tactics.
Even the Balloon Drapion that tricked him, and the life-and-death Flame Orb Heracross, left a deep impression on Lance.
What's even more terrifying is—
Lance could even feel that there was not much coordination between these teams.
If it weren't for the opponent's apparent paranoia and the need to use Bug-type Pokémon to form a team, the strength would likely have gone up several levels.
And it was such a team that was still some distance from perfection that suppressed him several times in the hands of the trainer on the opposite side, until the gorgeous reversal was completed at the last moment...
He was suddenly a little curious about what level the opponent was.
Judging from the command skills and creativity shown by this trainer, he must be a backbone figure of the League, right?
Could it be a smurf account of some champion?
But except for the one in Unova, there shouldn't be any champion who would study Bug-type Pokémon...
But if it is said that the champion who is publicly looking for a successor would be in the mood to play games, it is even more impossible.
Therefore, like the opponents Qingyu matched before, Lance, whose curiosity was aroused, clicked into his homepage.
And then he was stunned as expected.
Before the battle, he was busy looking at the opponent's lineup and didn't notice that the trainer on the opposite side was so young.
Looking at it, he is definitely not over twenty years old.
Undoubtedly, this is a genius youth who is impeccable in command, but he comes from Paldea, which he does not understand.
If it were nearby Sinnoh or Hoenn, he might really be unable to help but go to know this trainer named "Qingyu of the Azure Feather".
By the way, ask him how he thought of letting Kricketune use Perish Song...
Perish Song, or the final song, is a very special move, and the tactical system built around it is generally very complex.
And in the Kanto region, whether it is Agatha or his rival Lorelei, they are all good at using the Perish Song system.
Maybe he can trick him... recommend him to the Indigo League for key cultivation.
"There are more and more genius youths in other regions recently."
Just from what he knows, many regions have welcomed new champions recently, and nearby Sinnoh has almost replaced its entire League foundation with young people.
While Lance was sighing, he was suddenly stunned in his seat.
Since that legend retired, the champion of the Indigo League has been broken for many years, and the four of them have fought for more than ten years without being able to produce a winner.
Should we take advantage of the last Indigo Conference before the Master Rules are implemented to give young people a stage to perform?
And the work of the League Search Department, if they only follow behind him to finish, it is difficult for these newcomers to get training and growth.
Perhaps, we should try to let go and let them get familiar with the action patterns and activity ranges of Team Rocket and poaching organizations?
Sinnoh League.
"Am I seeing things???"
After witnessing an incredibly wonderful battle, Flint was stunned, and turned his head mechanically to look at his two friends on the other side.
In the broadcast room screen, the dazzling victory symbol was incredibly eye-catching.
"That's right, Mr. Lance, the head of the Kanto Elite Four, actually lost to this streamer..."
The recognized strongest dragon, paired with one of the best dragon riders in the world as a commander, lost to a team composed of the weakest Bug-type Pokémon.
Lucian, whose expression had always been calm, also showed obvious shock at this time.
An incredibly wonderful game, if it were an official event, it would definitely have the hope of entering the ranks of the best of the year!
Being able to win depends not only on the powerful command ability of this strange trainer that is not inferior to Lance at all.
More importantly...
He seems to have really managed to exert the power of every Bug-type Pokémon to the extreme!
