Chapter 745

~12 min read 2,399 words

Originally, he just thought about whether he could try his luck and spar with Teacher Yu, and improve the lineup by the way, but who could have thought it would end in this way of losing?

And it seems it can't be said that there was a problem with my fighting; although I did have some mistakes, the game was originally like this; it was simply that Teacher Yu completely predicted every step of mine, which made me look very dull...

Losing is not unjust, it's just that Blue is a bit puzzled in his heart—

Teacher Yu wouldn't really have some outrageous ability like long-distance mind reading, right? Otherwise, how come I feel like he knew every step of mine in advance?

Looking back now, it seems that from the initial rotation, Teacher Yu had already controlled the rhythm, forcibly relying on rotation to break through my dual weather setters that had almost no flaws.

And he suddenly played the trump card of Stealth Rock, which was truly caught off guard, and it was this seemingly unintentional operation that directly changed the trend of the entire match.

I was still guarding against Teacher Yu's Snow team and Alolan Ninetales, but thinking about it, it turned out that my own lineup collapsed first?

Thinking of this, Blue couldn't help but sigh.

In the final analysis, it can only be said that my learning is not refined.

"I originally wanted to find confidence in the game, but I didn't expect that after fighting Teacher Yu, it exposed problems in my strength."

"Can I count this as my hands being itchy, and on a whim, I wanted to snipe Teacher Yu..."

After shaking his head, Blue decisively decided not to dwell on this.

"Forget it, anyway, losing to Teacher Yu can't be counted as losing; how can learning technology be entangled with victory or defeat!"

"Just don't make mistakes again when challenging Blaine tomorrow for the problems exposed today!"

As a newcomer who has been tortured by various Gym Leaders in Kanto and has even honed his mentality to be impeccable, Blue quickly adjusted, decisively turned off the computer and lay back on the bed, and raised his phone on the bed.

"Before going to sleep, watch Teacher Yu's stream for a while and sprint at the end."

Just after clicking into the stream, Blue heard Teacher Yu's familiar voice.

"Hmm... although it looks like I won quite easily, students, don't misunderstand; the opponent's tactical level is still very online, and the ideas are also very interesting."

In the phone screen, Qingyu revealed a satisfied smile, moved his mouse twice in the lineup list of the opponent in the settlement screen, and highlighted Ninetales, which took the lead.

"We mentioned before that when both sides throw Poké Balls at the same time according to the rules, slow weather Pokémon react slower, so they have an advantage when competing for weather and can cover the opponent's weather first."

"This is also the main reason why I suggested that everyone use Torkoal as the main weather setter when playing Sunny teams before."

"However, Ninetales is obviously not unusable; for example, Blue, whom we encountered in this match, thought of using Charizard's Mega Evolution into Y Charizard to get the Drought ability to make a fuss, to obtain the ability to open weather again."

"In this way, Ninetales can often have the first move in many cases at the start, and even if it doesn't grab the weather, it has a backhand."

Qingyu said a few words simply, and after roughly stating Blue's thoughts, he added another sentence.

"The overall idea is indeed quite good, but the lineup feels like it can be adjusted again, right? Rhyperior feels a bit out of place in this team that needs to grab speed; besides the Water attribute, it is also very difficult to appear when encountering Grass attributes."

"And the problem that this set of tactics fears Stealth Rock is also very obvious; the Fire attribute itself is very afraid of the Rock attribute, let alone the team's big brother Charizard."

"Venusaur can eat Toxic Spikes, but it doesn't have the ability to deal with Stealth Rock; perhaps it should send another transfer hand with the ability to clear hazards?"

"For example... Starmie or Donphan?"

After casually saying two Pokémon that can use Rapid Spin along the train of thought, the topic about this battle also came to an end.

"In short, there is room for optimization."

"Speaking of which, the students in the stream might not know this opponent yet, but he is actually a new Trainer I know~ I am very optimistic about his performance in the future~"

"Blue, you should be in the stream too, right? You can refer to what I just said."

【Worthy of Teacher Yu, you can think of so many things in just a few minutes of battle; if it were me, I would have already been reckless, I don't care about this or that!】

【What are you still stunned for, hurry up and take notes!】

【... Wait a minute? Teacher Yu, what about my Snow team! Is it true that the Snow team is a play style that can win by scattering nails???】

【There is one thing to say, are the last few sentences of Teacher Yu really entering the teacher's identity? hhh, I feel like there is a feeling of roll call in class; if Blue doesn't appear, will it be counted as absenteeism~】

Perhaps because there has been no stream for a while, today Qingyu always feels that the comments in the stream are exceptionally active.

And just when he glanced at the comments a few times, Blue's message quickly appeared.

【GREEN: Learned, Teacher Yu! The adjusted lineup will definitely come in handy in tomorrow's battle with Blaine!】

Blue's appearance didn't make him feel surprised.

After all, as far as the current situation is concerned, the high-score segment is basically all his own fans; many times the matched opponents are actually in his own stream, and because they know he started streaming, they specifically went on the game to snipe him.

However...

Using a Sunny team to fight Blaine?

Qingyu quietly frowned, and mourned for the "iron-headed baby" Blue for a few seconds in his heart.

It is certainly not wrong to challenge the opponent with the tactics you are best at, but sometimes you have to adjust flexibly.

If I remember correctly, Blaine's gym field is right inside the volcano, naturally having an effect far exceeding Sunny weather, and his ace Magmar is a master of playing with fire.

Using Sunny weather to deal with Sunny weather, especially with wild battle rules, no matter how you think about it, it is very dangerous without a teammate who can put out the fire...

But thinking that Blue can also be considered a super true newcomer, Qingyu quickly smiled relievedly and stopped dwelling on this problem.

After winning Blue, Qingyu opened a few more ranking games in a row.

The battle with Blue certainly has many details, but after all, the theme of his stream this time is the Snow team, and he hasn't shown the audience how to use Cetitan and Alolan Sandslash in the team yet.

Therefore, in the next few matches where singles and doubles were mixed, Qingyu quickly showed the unique charm of the Snow team.

"Sure enough, many opponents know to grab weather when they reach Master Ball, but..."

"I'm really sorry, this is also in my expectation!"

"Once Snow and Aurora Veil are opened, the survival pressure has been relieved; since we can carry it, what should we do next?"

"Very simple—Cetitan, use Belly Drum!"

Cetitan's base stat distribution is very characteristic; with extremely high HP, even if it loses half of its stamina after using Belly Drum, it is still safe under the protection of Aurora Veil.

And the exaggerated output blessing provided by Belly Drum, coupled with the Slush Rush ability, makes Cetitan, which was originally clumsy, become a flexible fatty, moving around on the field, and the sense of oppression is instantly full.

The Ice attribute itself is very comprehensive in terms of output, and after Belly Drum, it is one Ice Spinner for one little friend, showing the audience a wave of violent aesthetics.

As for the other Alolan Sandslash in the team...

Coming from Alola, it seems to have lost the invincible offensive combination of Ice+Ground, but in fact, it can still learn Earthquake.

Besides encountering Fighting and Fire-type Pokémon, Sandslash's ability to stand on the field is also quite good, and relying on Swords Dance and excellent offensive coverage, it perfectly assumed all the responsibilities of an attacker together with Cetitan.

As long as other teammates can pull out output space and let the two Pokémon land safely and complete strengthening, there is no suspense about the outcome.

【Not my brother, Cetitan, which is as tall as three or four people, is still so fast, is this right...】

【Fast and high output, plus the dual protection of Snow and Aurora Veil, how can there be such a cool play style, already learned!】

【It turns out that Gym Leader Grusha was really showing mercy at the time? If he played like Teacher Yu, I feel like the bad review rate should be comparable to Teacher Yu, making up a Paldea duo...】

【My go, you can even think of such a terrifying thing???】

In a short hour, Qingyu used this seemingly simple and rough, actually rough and fine play style to give students a new understanding of the Snow team.

Although as the most inconspicuous one among the four major weathers, the benefits brought by Snow itself are indeed relatively weak, but it has a unique charm.

And during the streaming process, there were also some small episodes.

For example, Miss Lorelei, who hadn't appeared in the stream for a long time, seemed to have been blown out by Qingyu's Snow team today.

【Kanto Elite Four Lorelei: Worthy of Teacher Yu, I can always learn very useful knowledge every time!】

【Kanto Elite Four Lorelei: Speaking of which, Teacher Yu also recommended Alolan Ninetales to me last time; it just so happens that the Ice-type Master Tournament this June will be held in the Alola region, and I should arrive early by then to try to capture one.】

【Kanto Elite Four Lorelei: I hope Teacher Yu can talk more about the usage of Alolan Ninetales in this video, please~】

When Lorelei appeared in the stream again, the attention of the audience, including Qingyu, was actually not on her.

【Oh, what Teacher Yu said last time seems to be coming true!】

【I hope Mr. Lance is okay; I dare not imagine how difficult his days will be if Elite Four Lorelei captures Alolan Ninetales...】

【Seems to be true; Ice+Fairy attribute, invincible support while output is also not bad; isn't this clearly targeting a certain unlucky guy? As for who it is specifically, I won't say, but everyone knows, right? (/bad smile)】

【Angry, why is Teacher Yu so bad? The single-pusher of the Dragonite is furious!】

"..."

While the comments were full of joy, the mouth corners of a certain Dragon Tamer who was far away in the Dragon's Den in Johto and had not yet fallen asleep began to twitch wildly.

Not good, Teacher Yu seems to be coming for me again in this video!

If Lorelei really captures an Alolan Ninetales before retiring, maybe she won't retire if she is happy?

The Ice-type Master Tournament in June is a small matter; after all, I won't participate.

But what should I do about the Indigo League Elite Four assessment at the end of the year?

The civil war of their Kanto Elite Four has been going on for more than ten years, and so far he hasn't broken through Lorelei head-on even once.

Every time he barely defeats Bruno and Agatha, he is swept out by Lorelei's best Blizzard.

And if Lorelei's lineup is strengthened again and her strength goes further...

Then when will I be able to get ahead? Wouldn't I be suppressed by this woman for a lifetime!

Namu San, what a nightmare this is...

Thinking of such a dark future, Lance couldn't help but frown.

But after thinking a little, he quickly relaxed again and immediately smiled.

"However, fortunately, I am not without a way to solve it."

"It is said that a batch of brand-new Pokémon Mega Evolutions have been discovered in Kalos, which should also include Dragonite?"

Regarding the mysterious Mega Evolution phenomenon, as human exploration of it deepens, more and more new evolution forms are presented, which are currently being urgently studied by Professor Sycamore in the Kalos region.

Perhaps in time, every Pokémon will be able to discover its own unique Mega Evolution form.

Even Trainers might be able to achieve a qualitative change, and be able to maintain the bond with several Pokémon at the same time, right?

What the result will be, Lance doesn't know.

However, he didn't pin all his hopes on Mega Evolution.

"Even if Mega Evolution can't save it... I still have the trump card I got from Paldea."

During the journey to Paldea with Clair last time, Lance took a Terastal Orb from Geeta before leaving, as well as some Terastal Shards of different attributes.

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

"It's not just you who is making progress, Lorelei."

As a righteous person who knows how to be flexible, he knows that Pokémon battles need flexibility the most.

Since Dragonite with Flying+Dragon attributes has been restrained by her for a lifetime...

Then the answer is already very simple, isn't it?

Isn't it fine not to be a Dragon?

Using Terastallization to temporarily adjust Dragonite to the Steel attribute can not only prevent the output of all Pokémon in Lorelei's team, but even kill Alolan Ninetales directly with Iron Head!

That's right, this is my victory equation!

Using such a move suddenly at a critical moment, even Lorelei couldn't react, right?

Fantasizing about the not-so-distant future, Lance decisively ignored the rumors in Qingyu's stream and fell asleep peacefully with a smile.

Time will prove everything...

The championship throne that has been vacant for more than ten years is also time to welcome a new successor.

I, Lance, am the true king of the Indigo Plateau!
