Chapter 685

"Mimikyu, Play Rough!"

David's eyes instantly became hot, and the expression he showed when looking at Lucario seemed to carry some enjoyment.

Qingyu actually couldn't quite understand, but he didn't need to understand either.

"Lucario, use Meteor Mash again to suppress the opponent!"

He decisively chose to fight head-on with Mimikyu.

This Pokémon Mimikyu was too popular, how could he not know?

Besides the high fault tolerance brought by the Disguise ability, Mimikyu is absolutely very consistent with the "standardized" Ghost-type Pokémon characteristics.

HP is garbage, speed is not slow, and there are no good Fairy-type attack moves.

And even if it is Swords Dance once, Mimikyu's combat power still cannot be said to be too strong.

After all, the Fairy-type move Play Rough hitting Lucario can't be said to be very painful, so it should be no problem to withstand it.

"Lucario!"

"Mimikyu!"

The two Pokémon that approached quickly entangled together.

Relying on the ghostly body, Mimikyu really brought a lot of trouble to Lucario.

However, when it was eager to make a move and attacked Lucario, it finally exposed its position, giving Lucario a chance to counterattack.

"Lucario!"

After stretching out its right arm to withstand the tail slashed by Mimikyu, Lucario took the opportunity to clench its left fist and made a counterattack with its hard-as-iron back of the hand!

With one punch, the small-bodied Mimikyu immediately repeated the appearance of Exeggutor just now, instantly flew backward, bounced several times after falling to the ground, and finally landed at the edge of the field.

And Lucario subconsciously retracted its slightly trembling right hand, its eyes still sharp as a knife.

"Lucario!"

Sure enough, the opponents this time are all very strong!

But I also have reasons that I must win, so...

This degree of minor injury is not enough to make me leave the field.

Under the watchful eyes of Lucario, a "click" suddenly came from the body of Mimikyu, who was originally unable to stand up, and it seemed that something had quietly broken.

Subsequently, a special life force suddenly lingered on Mimikyu's body, forcing its originally gradually dissipating consciousness to return to its body.

"Mimikyu!"

After struggling to support its body, Mimikyu's eyes, which were hot with anger, were particularly eye-catching.

"Focus Sash, huh..."

Qingyu reacted immediately.

This can also be considered a relatively conventional item configuration for Mimikyu. Disguise + Sash is equivalent to providing two fault tolerances, and also gives it one more chance to make a move.

Especially when the opponent is unprepared, the Mimikyu that suddenly crawls up will indeed make people involuntarily think about whether it is really haunted.

But in Qingyu's place, this move is clearly useless.

"Mimikyu, use Absorb..."

"Lucario, Bullet Punch!"

Before David, who was excited, could speak, Qingyu's light sentence directly struck him like a thunderbolt.

Ah?

How come your Lucario can also use this move???

Bullet Punch, a not-so-conventional, but indeed very easy-to-use priority attack move.

By compressing power at one point, it blasts out a punch comparable to the explosive power of a bullet, and the speed is so fast that the opponent cannot react at all.

Compared to the not-so-legal Wicked Blow just now, this Bullet Punch is actually much more reasonable.

Because Lucario can really inherit this move.

However, even without Bullet Punch, when facing non-Ghost-type Pokémon, Qingyu would also use moves like Quick Attack.

In David's somewhat desperate eyes, Lucario's speed was as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it knocked down the "resurrected" Mimikyu to the ground again.

On the big screen, the three Poké Balls under David's avatar had already dimmed two.

"The situation is a bit unfavorable for contestant David!"

Hu Tao, who finally found a chance to speak, interjected, speaking in a tone with a bit of nervousness.

Regarding her judgment, Lance nodded in agreement, but quickly added two sentences:

"However, for contestant David, there is not only bad news. At least currently, the moves of this Lucario of Qingyu have been completely locked..."

"If you want to turn defeat into victory, perhaps this is the last hope for a comeback."

Lance slightly made up for David.

Detect, an attack move that looks like Wicked Blow and can break through Protect, Meteor Mash, Bullet Punch.

In the fierce battles with two Pokémon just now, the moves used by Lucario have already touched the rules, and the use of subsequent moves will be subject to certain restrictions.

According to the Master Rules used in international competitions, both sides' Pokémon can use any moves, but out of various considerations, the total number of moves for each Pokémon in a battle is limited to 4.

That is the commonly known Restricted 4 rule.

Sometimes, especially when the strength of both sides is very close, the restriction of this rule is quite fatal, directly leading to the inability to target blind spots in the next move, and must seek another way.

But actually, Lance also knows very well in his heart—

The situation has developed to such a one-sided degree. I believe every viewer can see the strength gap between them.

So whether it is restricted or not has no big impact.

And as a commentator, he clearly cannot directly sing the decline.

Actually, he has another sentence that he didn't say.

The moves are indeed bright cards, but so far, no one knows what item Qingyu's Lucario is carrying.

Not even being forced to show the item means that Qingyu is even hiding his hand...

The one that can make Qingyu choose to hide his hand first will likely only be its new form, right?

A Mega Evolution posture with more powerful strength and further improved suppression!

Of course, this is just Lance's guess, so he also chose not to say these contents.

As for David, who was standing opposite Qingyu at this time, he was already a bit confused.

"So, so hard to fight!"

David was tearful as he took back the Mimikyu that fell to the ground, and suddenly regretted the "bold words" he said to Qingyu before the battle.

Now that Teacher Yu is really happy, I am unhappy instead. Why bother saying those two extra sentences...

Alas!

But things have come to this, he only has to grit his teeth and fight this battle.

Good news: I still have one Pokémon!

Bad news: Why do I still have one Pokémon!

Moreover, because of the special rule restrictions of the Type Master Tournament, his last Pokémon must have the Psychic type.

Wanting to counter Lucario has become even more difficult, let alone sweeping three.

"Finally... it's decided to be you, Hypno!"

Anyway, it's just going through the motions, so David didn't pretend anymore and sent out his other main force.

At least he brushed a familiar face in front of Qingyu. This wave is not too bad!

"Hypno..."

Seeing this yellow big furry holding a hypnotic ring, the subtlety in Qingyu's expression flashed by.

Although he knew that it was normal for a psychic to hold this Pokémon, but...

Okay, Qingyu admits that he is a little dirty!

"Please, Hypno!"

David showed hope and looked at his last hope.

As a Psychic-type Pokémon, this Hypno of his also has its own unique skills.

Of course, it doesn't refer to hypnosis.

After looking at his trainer, Hypno nodded immediately.

Subsequently, it turned its gaze to Lucario on the opponent's field, and its eyes also became sharp.

"Forewarn ability?"

After noticing its actions, Qingyu reacted immediately.

Hypno with the Forewarn ability can rely on perception power that exceeds ordinary Pokémon to pre-read the opponent's most powerful move in this battle when it appears.

However...

After noticing this, Qingyu was suddenly a bit curious.

Theoretically, if calculated by power, Hypno should have pre-read the Meteor Mash that had already been displayed.

But reality and theory do not necessarily fit perfectly.

Soon, his guess became reality.

I saw Hypno, who was staring straight at Lucario, immediately trembling all over, showing horror.

Through the forewarning ability, it saw the scene where Exeggutor was just knocked down by a punch.

At the same time, because it was in God's perspective, Hypno also immediately realized that this move of Lucario was wrong.

Th-th-this...

What kind of move is this, it's Dark-type and hits the weak point, and using Protect can't block it???

Why do I feel like I can't withstand this punch at all...

This Lucario of yours is really not right!

Due to feeling huge pressure, Forewarn even achieved an effect similar to Anticipation at this time.

If there is game text in the lower left corner, it might show:

【Hypno is trembling!】

"..."

Through Hypno's terrified expression, Qingyu initially verified his judgment.

Since that's the case, then be quick and give it a happy ending!

"Lucario, use Wicked Blow!"

"Lucario!"

In David's desperate sight, Lucario decisively leaned forward and killed Hypno in seconds with a clean punch.

After the three Poké Balls were all extinguished, David's avatar on the big screen quickly disappeared, replaced by Qingyu's confident face and the eye-catching victory icon.

Qingyu, Win!

"Let us congratulate contestant Qingyu for winning his first victory in an international competition!"

Hu Tao immediately took the lead in applauding.

However, Lance beside her didn't know why his face twitched, and he couldn't speak for a while.

If I didn't hear it wrong just now...

The move Qingyu shouted was indeed Wicked Blow, right???

That terrifying move that theoretically only Master Mustard's two Urshifu can learn, and has been killing on the international stage!
