Chapter 568

The winner has been decided.

Watching the eye-catching red "Failure" sign in front of him, Wallace was a little trance for a while, sitting on the sofa in a daze.

In terms of command, he seems to have been completely exploded by Xiang Qingyu...

Facing that absurd command and pre-reading ability, even he, who is on par with the Hoenn Champion, doesn't seem to be able to keep up with Xiang Qingyu's rhythm.

So, his loss this time is actually not unjust.

Compared to the powerlessness when facing Garganacl last time, he was obviously more serious this time and tried several times to save the decline.

It's a pity that even his most proficient Rain system is still not Xiang Qingyu's opponent.

Wallace sighed secretly.

"I actually think you performed very well just now."

Steven on the other side saw this and decisively reached out to pat Wallace on the shoulder, which also attracted his attention.

"In my opinion, your understanding of the Rain Team is actually quite consistent. For example, in the Mega version, you both tacitly chose Swampert as the core main force, and matched it with shields and pivots to improve the team's defensive synergy. These are all excellent ideas."

Should it be said that Wallace's learning in Xiang Qingyu's live broadcast room has yielded small results, or that his comprehension ability is relatively strong, and he quickly grasped the key points of the Rain Team...

In short, in Steven's view, the strength Wallace showed today is definitely more than a little bit stronger than before.

But even so, it is still a bit difficult to win against Xiang Qingyu head-on.

The composition of the Pokémon on both sides may be somewhat similar, both are all-around in offense and defense, with no obvious shortcomings.

And Xiang Qingyu's biggest advantage lies in his unique understanding of various attributes and his ability to create various absurd tactics.

For example, the Rain civil war phantom god Ferrothorn just now is obviously the answer Xiang Qingyu gave after thinking about "what if I encounter an opponent with the same tactics, how should I break the situation."

The Grass + Steel type Ferrothorn is no longer extremely afraid of Fire-type attacks in the rain, which relatively improves its tankiness. At the same time, it is immune to powder, not afraid of Grass-type and Poison-type moves, which makes it almost immune to any consumption means.

Unless broken through head-on, it is the most beautiful boy in the Rain civil war.

But even if you open up the pattern and expand the choice to other Pokémon outside the Rain system, there don't seem to be many existences that can effectively hit it.

Wallace was restricted everywhere in the battle, and more than half of the reason was due to this wall of sighs.

And such a perfect fit for the Rain Team, before this, no one had ever thought of it, until today it was picked up by Xiang Qingyu and shined...

Thinking of this, Steven couldn't help but sigh:

"Xiang Qingyu's understanding of Pokémon is really too terrifying."

Including Scizor, it is relatively much more popular, but very few Trainers specializing in Rain Teams will choose it.

The reason is also very simple. Rain almost only has a strong boost effect on Water-types. Pokémon with Electric and Flying types might consider it.

But other choices...

Indeed, people usually don't think of it, but the idea of using Rain to avoid Fire-type weaknesses is absolutely correct.

It directly expands the depth of Rain Team members significantly, making the tactics around the Rain Team more flexible and changeable.

From this point of view, Xiang Qingyu's ideas are even ahead of Wallace by a lot.

"Just talking about tactics, maybe Teacher Yu's level is even above the Champion?"

Steven spoke subconsciously, saying an answer he wasn't too sure about himself.

Regarding the evaluation of Xiang Qingyu, Steven always feels that it is a bit difficult to grasp the measure.

If you say he is strong, Xiang Qingyu is at most a newcomer who has been a Trainer for less than half a year.

At that time, his Pokémon did leave a good impression on him, especially the Ogerpon, which looked weak but was actually enough to serve as the main force of the Champion.

However, if you look at his lineup depth and overall strength, let alone the Champion, there is still a gap from the Elite Four, right?

Being able to cultivate a full team of 6 main forces at a decent level, maybe Xiang Qingyu is qualified to serve as an Elite Four in Paldea, just maybe a little bit short now.

But if you say he is weak, it is definitely not objective.

You mean...

A "super newcomer" who killed through Paldea students in three months of debut, trained them into shape according to his own template, and taught lessons to Trainers all over the world, is actually a weakling?

Are you kidding!

Just being able to quickly sit firmly in the position of Gym Leader is enough to prove his extraordinary talent.

What's more, his true strength has never been his surface strength, but the growth brought by his imaginative tactics and extremely profound knowledge reserves.

In other words, because the Trainer's level is ridiculously high, Xiang Qingyu will almost never have a "bottleneck" on the road to growth.

As long as the Pokémon's strength can keep up, he will continue to grow and improve.

From newcomer to Gym Leader, it only took him two months;

Then how long will it take for the next Elite Four, Champion, or even "Battle Legend"?

This is too terrifying...

If he can keep it up, Xiang Qingyu is likely to become the youngest "Battle Legend" title holder, right?

Thinking of this, Steven couldn't help but smile.

He is thinking too far, let's base it on the present first, don't milk Xiang Qingyu to death.

"Hmm, that doesn't seem wrong."

Wallace raised his head in relief, showing a helpless smile.

"However, it's just losing to Xiang Qingyu twice in the game. If I have a chance to meet him in high-level competitions, I must find a chance to avenge this 'two-arrow revenge'!"

Losing is losing, Wallace did not argue about the previous failure.

It is precisely because of these two failures that Wallace has been curious about a Trainer for a long time.

Following Steven, he has one more opponent he must defeat.

"It seems I have to get serious!"

"Then, I wish you to meet Teacher Yu soon."

Noticing his close friend who had been provoked to fight, Steven smiled slightly.

Of course, he wouldn't say the second half of the sentence.

If it's too late, I'm afraid the Teacher Yu you meet will be terrifyingly strong...

"By the way, if you want to specialize in battling, what about the Pokémon Contest?"

Steven suddenly thought of his close friend's dream, so he teased.

After Wallace was silent for a moment, he showed a confident smile again.

"Don't worry, whether it's the Pokémon Contest or Trainer competition, I will bring the most elegant victory."

"These two things don't conflict, right?"

【My goodness, Teacher Yu is too fierce, using a Rain Team to blast Wallace, who specializes in Rain Teams?】

【Originally I thought Wallace's Toxapex would be very dirty, but I didn't expect to be sanctioned when encountering Teacher Yu's Ferrothorn!】

【How can there be such a high-quality... powerful Pokémon like Ferrothorn? How can the opponent break through if you put one in the rain? It feels hard as a rock...】

【To the person above, guess why Wallace used Toxapex? It's because Teacher Yu taught him a lesson before~】

【To be honest, indeed, how can you win by playing this kind of dirty stuff in front of Teacher Yu? This is small dirty meeting big dirty, you can't win at all!】

A wonderful battle not only made both sides fight heartily, but the audience also called it addictive.

Although they were a bit confused halfway through, this did not affect their intuitive experience of the strength of Xiang Qingyu's Rain Team.

After the battle, Xiang Qingyu showed a satisfied smile.

It's really great to use the battle just now as material.

Rain civil war itself tests command and pre-reading ability more, and at the same time can maximize the advantages of his lineup.

And Wallace's strength is also very online, but his lineup and understanding of Pokémon are slightly inferior, which eventually led to this rout.

Looking at the score, it seems to be a crushing game, but in fact, he didn't win so easily.

Of course, it's actually not that difficult.

"Are there any students who want to talk about why Wallace lost this battle?"
