Chapter 174: If Only One Person Can Laugh, Why Can't It Be Me?
Draco Meteor fell with a bang, and the energy aftermath stirred up countless dust, making the field, which was already low in visibility due to the sandstorm, directly blurry.
Until the dust dissipated, a blood bar that still maintained a healthy green color appeared on Qingyu's half of the field first.
After blocking the terrifying move that was enough to be fatal for the main body, Gliscor's Substitute had disappeared.
As for the Duraludon opposite, it fell into weakness due to the excessive energy consumption caused by using Draco Meteor, and its offensive ability was greatly reduced for the time being.
【Oh my god, so Substitute can even block Draco Meteor?】
【This is the Substitute-Protect-Toxic Mr. Feather said? What a disgusting tactic, I don't want to play if I'm the opponent!】
【Speaking of which, does Paldea have a distribution of Gliscor, how does Mr. Feather know the tactics of this Pokémon?】
"Actually blocked it with Substitute..."
Raihan was a little stunned, but still reacted quickly.
He is playing a game now, not a Pokémon battle in reality, so some things, although counter-intuitive, are also reasonable.
If someone dared to use this quality tactic in Hammerlocke Stadium, his Super Gigantamax Duraludon would definitely let the opponent see what is called breaking ten thousand methods with absolute strength.
No matter Substitute or Protect, in the face of absolute strength, they are just useless little tricks.
It's a pity that there is no Gigantamax in the game, and his proud numerical crushing cannot be reflected in the battle.
"This is difficult to handle..."
Raihan shook his head helplessly, and at the same time as Draco Meteor hit Gliscor's Substitute, it meant that it had completely lost its ability to match.
"Gliscor, Earthquake!"
While Qingyu made instructions to try to harvest, Raihan chose to change people again.
After recycling Duraludon, the one replaced on the field was Flygon, who could avoid attacks by relying on the Levitate characteristic.
It was only then that Raihan discovered the truly tricky place of this Gliscor.
Most of his team are members of the Sunny and Sandstorm teams, and there are almost no means to limit Gliscor.
If the one sent at the beginning was Coalossal, maybe it could interfere with the Venusaur sunny high-speed hypnosis tactic?
No, wrong!
He suddenly realized another layer of meaning of this Poison Heal characteristic of the opponent.
Because it made itself fall into a poisoned state in advance, it has a very strong resistance to other interference such as paralysis and sleep!
Under the attack of "poison" with poison, even hypnosis is afraid that there will be no effect...
Raihan had to admire the imagination of this little Gym Leader.
However, no defense can be without weaknesses, even if it cannot break the situation from the perspective of attribute restraint, there are other methods.
"Flygon, Tailwind!"
As a veteran trainer who has fought many battles and has a keen sense of smell, Raihan quickly discovered the weakness of the opponent's set of routines.
If the speed is not fast enough, every time you use moves like Toxic and Substitute that require preparation time, you will inevitably reveal flaws!
Even if Gliscor has the Poison Heal characteristic to continuously restore physical strength, it is impossible to hold on in the face of his Dragon-type army's wheel battle.
【Actually dare to open Tailwind, use Toxic to disgust him to death!】
【Raihan is also unlucky for eight lifetimes, to be the first to encounter such a quality tactic from the streamer...】
【Didn't you say Mr. Feather couldn't win before, still underestimated the bond between Mr. Feather and dirty routines!】
"Hmm, the opponent's idea is quite good."
Seeing Raihan decisively command Flygon to use Tailwind, and the speed under the sandstorm is about to reach an extremely terrifying level, Qingyu couldn't help but smile faintly.
"However, since you know that my Gliscor is not a pure defensive team, haven't you made any precautions?"
"Still need to practice, Mr. Raihan!"
"Gliscor, Ice Fang!"
Hearing Qingyu's command, Raihan was stunned for a moment.
For this Pokémon Gliscor, Raihan of Galar doesn't know much, but...
You mean, this Gliscor, which is four times weak to Ice, can use the Ice-type move I hate most?
Is this right?
As Qingyu said before, Gliscor is indeed a driver of the Gundam who is very suitable for Substitute-Protect-Toxic tactics.
Because in the previous life, in the case of limiting four skills, it also has a hand of Earthquake to deal with Pokémon that this set of tactics is difficult to deal with.
But in the current game environment, there is no skill limit, so it has another very terrifying advantage, which seems to have not attracted people's attention——
Its skill pool is too comprehensive!
Sinnoh, this place, really has a saying.
Putting aside the heaven-defying skill pool that only the sect pride like the big brother Infernape is worthy of, there are also masters with a wide range of skill learning such as Lopunny and Gliscor.
Besides Substitute-Protect-Toxic, Gliscor also hides control moves such as Spikes, Taunt, and Tailwind in its pocket.
On the offensive end, the moves it can learn are even more varied, adding up to cover fifteen attributes, mainly focusing on comprehensiveness.
Even Ice-type moves that restrain themselves four times can be learned...
Among us (referring to the four-fold weak Ice family) there is a traitor!
A steel tooth with ice slag bit towards Flygon, who was trying to scrape up a gust of wind, and hit the opponent hard in an instant.
"Saying it's Substitute-Protect-Toxic, in fact, it's not all."
While commanding, Qingyu also explained his ideas by the way.
"Pure defense is too easy to be seen through, if you encounter a master like Mr. Raihan, you will definitely think of a counter-method soon."
"But if we suddenly change speed to attack at this time, the opponent's thinking that was originally following our tactical layout will be easily disrupted by us."
"Psychological warfare is also an important part of Pokémon battles, and in the case that we have already led the opponent by the nose——"
"Victory is already in the bag!"
After commanding Gliscor to solve Flygon with Ice Fang in one breath, Qingyu made a victory declaration in advance.
The facts are exactly as he said, the subsequent battle can almost be described as one-sided.
Gliscor's style of sometimes passive defense, sometimes active attack, and unpredictable changes made Raihan very headache.
Finally, after paying the price of the main axis of the entire sandstorm team, the legendary durable king Gliscor finally ran out of physical strength and was recycled by Qingyu into the ball.
However...
Without mourning for Gliscor's fall for even a moment, the one who arrived at the battlefield immediately was——
Substitute-Protect-Toxic No. 2 machine, the cute purple fat man who is very popular.
Gengar!
(Gengar is cute~)
That's right, every Pokémon in Qingyu's team can use the Substitute-Protect-Toxic tactic, and there is another more important point——
They are not limited to defense, and can also produce very considerable output when needed.
For example, the cute purple fat man who exists in almost every region is the leader among them, each with its own advantages and disadvantages compared to Gliscor.
Gengar's firepower output is no weaker than Gliscor, and it occupies all the advantages in speed.
As for the slightly poor durability...
The opponent didn't have a chance to hit it at all, is this still important?
The offensive of Shadow Ball and Sludge Bomb brought huge pressure, and the combination of Toxic and Protect made Raihan only choose to attack strongly.
The same routine is still being staged.
It was clearly just a Substitute-Protect-Toxic tactic that could be seen through at a glance, but it was played out in Qingyu's hands, making people unable to guess what command he would make next.
Under the repeated torture of Gliscor, Gengar, and the late Breloom, Raihan's last Pokémon Goodra soon fell.
The final score was fixed at 6:2.
6 updates! A bit burned out, I will try to keep updating 10,000 words tomorrow...
