Chapter 398
The battle with Kieran ended soon, but the impact of this battle was not just on Kieran himself.
For the whole afternoon, the Sunny Gym welcomed a few more challengers.
Because it had been "open-sourced," the students finally discovered a way to significantly increase the pass rate of the Sunny Gym:
Let's unite!
Simply put, it seems that these students have turned from fighting alone to concentrating everyone's strength to start studying the test questions released by Qingyu.
It is indeed difficult for one person to answer five questions, but with the power of the Rotom Phone and a group of students, the difficulty of cracking is obviously much lower.
Therefore, Qingyu, who was temporarily unaware, soon discovered one thing—
As time went by, the students who came to challenge seemed to have started to improve one by one, guarding against his set of tactics in advance.
In fact, the second challenger was already prepared, and even brought a Choice Band to "fight poison with poison," wanting to lock Sableye's moves as well.
Even if it doesn't lock moves, it can also severely damage it with brute force.
However...
Young people are still too young!
Besides status moves, Sableye also has many other unique skills, which will naturally be well utilized in Qingyu's hands.
First is Fling!
When seeing the opponent send out Granbull, Qingyu already had a guess in his heart and decisively used Fling to throw out his Choice Scarf.
Since he used this routine, Qingyu naturally thought about how to prevent the opponent from breaking the move.
Once the Choice Scarf was thrown, the opponent was horrified to find—
So the Sableye that doesn't use that blockade tactic is the complete form???
First use Will-O-Wisp to limit Granbull's output, then use Disable to achieve the same blockade tactic as before...
So the second challenger was defeated without accident.
By the time of the third challenger, they evolved one step further again.
The trainer used a Xatu with the Magic Bounce ability, which really made Qingyu's eyes light up.
But...
Is this Xatu of yours restrained by both of Sableye's STAB attributes?
Although Sableye's combat power is indeed average, isn't Xatu's durability also mediocre?
So, under the attack of Sableye's Knock Off + Shadow Claw, the third challenger was also soon defeated.
For some reason, Qingyu suddenly felt like he had become a final boss, being repeatedly brushed by people to familiarize themselves with moves.
However, their efforts were not completely useless.
It wasn't until the fifth challenger that something that made Qingyu's eyes light up was finally brought.
A Mothim with the Tinted Lens ability!
How unpopular is this ability?
Even Qingyu was stunned when he saw this thing, and finally slapped his thigh and recalled it.
The effect of this ability is to halve the hit rate of status moves against it.
As everyone knows, in the Pokémon world, 80 hit rate = 0, and status moves with only 50 hit rate after halving are really easy to dodge.
Sableye, who relies on status moves to eat, ran into this thing and was speechless.
Even this trainer used the safest Toxic to slowly grind down Sableye...
【Awesome, this should be counted as an inner disciple, right?】
【Look at Teacher Yu's eyes, he looks at people and it's almost pulling silk, this is really seeing a good seedling, hahahaha!】
【Facts have proved that a true genius teenager can make Teacher Yu feel amazed!】
And this "little clever ghost" also became
Before he left, Qingyu couldn't help but ask his name.
The answer obtained was:
"Teacher Yu, my name is Atticus."
When hearing this name, Qingyu was stunned for a moment.
It wasn't that he thought of a certain car god, but...
Atticus?
Isn't that the name of the leader of the Team Star's Segin Squad?
(Atticus)
Qingyu found it hard to combine this handsome, gentle little classmate who exuded an ancient atmosphere with that middle-school-illness guy who wore strange costumes and covered half of his face like a cosplay ninja.
But obviously, before joining Team Star, Atticus was just an ordinary student.
And his appearance also reminded Qingyu—
The five captains of Team Star, their appearance at this time might be very different from what he remembers.
After all, under his influence, maybe the absurd thing like "Operation Starfall" wouldn't happen...
If you have time to improve yourself every day and challenge the gym to go further, who would have the leisure to bully other students!
The afternoon passed quickly, and it soon came to the off-duty time of the Sunny Gym.
Although the gym challenge came to an end, the students who were seriously studying how to clear the Sunny Gym did not slack off because of this.
In the school forum, countless discussions about "how to break through Sableye's outrageous number of status moves" had silently emerged with many threads.
Starting with Kieran's challenge, they had iterated many times in one day, and a few of them had been verified in actual combat.
It's a pity that every time they felt they were about to break through, Teacher Yu would always take out some new tricks with a slap.
【What needs to be considered now is not how to deal with the blockade tactics. After this set of tactics was cracked, Teacher Yu didn't even bring a Choice Scarf later!】
【Is there any Pokémon that can be faster than Prankster Sableye? I feel like if you can kill it in one move, it should solve the problem!】
【What are you thinking? Sableye has almost no weaknesses. To restrain it, you can only use the Fairy attribute, but it seems there is no one fast enough...】
【Hiss—, it seems that this strong attack set is not easy to use.】
【Wait? I suddenly remembered! Do you remember, Teacher Yu seemed to have said before... all support hands are afraid of Taunt!】
【I understand the truth, but how can you make the Taunt hand faster than the Prankster Sableye on the opposite side?】
【Seems so...】
【Wait... since Teacher Yu can use Prankster Sableye, can we also use Pokémon with the Prankster ability to counter it?】
