Chapter 8

In his past life, Qingyu was a streamer in the Pokémon battle section, so he was relatively familiar with most of the routines.

Looking at the history of Pokémon battles, there are actually very few routines that can form a system based on a single skill.

And among these powerful routines with far-reaching influence, there happens to be such a simple and crude move that left a very deep impression on Qingyu.

It is precisely the Endeavor that Aron just used.

If used properly, even a level 1 Pokémon has the possibility of sweeping the opponent's entire team.

【What just happened? I didn't see it wrong, right? A level 1 Aron took out Charizard in seconds?】

【I dare not speak. jpg】

The comments quickly recovered from the shock and started reviewing Qingyu's operation.

【I went to check the move Endeavor; the effect is to make the opponent's HP equal to the user's HP, which is why it took out Charizard directly...】

【Sturdy paired with Endeavor, no wonder he used a level 1 Pokémon; it's interesting!】

【It's not just that simple; the Hippowdon that came out to set up the sandstorm also has a lot of thought behind it; without the sandstorm, Charizard wouldn't have died.】

【I understand the logic, but I'm more curious about how Aron returned to full health?】

"It's the Shell Bell; I gave Aron a Shell Bell."

Qingyu nodded and took the initiative to announce the answer.

Although the audience's understanding might not keep up with him, they certainly aren't stupid; with a little thought, they basically dismantled his routine.

A weak level 1 Pokémon uses Sturdy to lock its HP, Endeavor to deal damage similar to "Destiny Bond," and then uses the sandstorm weather to finish off the opponent, achieving the effect of making the opponent die instantly.

The principle itself is actually not complicated.

But to simultaneously meet the conditions of having Endeavor, having the Sturdy ability, and not being backlashed by the teammate's sandstorm...

You can only find Aron and Donphan in the entire Pokedex.

This is also the reason why Qingyu decided to use this routine immediately after seeing the lineup.

Of course, if he only used Endeavor to take out a Charizard, this tactic obviously wouldn't make the audience feel so shocked.

Being able to use it cyclically is the essence of the Endeavor tactic.

"The effect of the Shell Bell is to recover a small amount of HP after each attack, and the effect is related to the damage dealt."

Qingyu continued to explain.

Seeing that the opponent seemed to have been "crashed" by his move and hadn't sent out the next Pokémon for a long time, he simply stretched.

"For a level 1 Aron, this bit of recovery is completely enough for it to return to health."

"At this moment, it has returned to full health and will reactivate the Sturdy ability, allowing it to continue to resist damage and perform smooth little combos."

As if to verify Qingyu's explanation, Aron, with full HP, raised its head high on the screen, its eyes full of fighting spirit.

【666, this tactic is interesting; how did the streamer think of it?】

【After watching the streamer's operation, I just want to write a haiku: Sturdy Shell Bell, Aron is a level 1 god, Endeavor sweeps the field】

【True level 1 god, I'm going to start a ranked match and slaughter everyone!】

In the stream that hadn't been open for long, the density of comments rose rapidly.

Estimating from the number of viewers, nearly a hundred people had just seen Qingyu's unscientific tactic.

Theoretically, as long as Aron keeps repeating Endeavor, it can easily wipe out the team.

Of course, this is just theory.

Pokémon battles obviously don't have perfect tactics, and soon someone discovered the limitations of the Endeavor tactic.

【Streamer, streamer, your tactic is indeed very powerful, but if the opponent sends out Aerodactyl, wouldn't you be finished?】

At the same time this comment appeared, the opponent also considered this point.

After a long period of thought, Aerodactyl was quickly switched out.

Although it is not a noble Dragon, as a Rock and Flying-type Pokémon, the sandstorm cannot cause it any damage, and instead, it can improve its durability.

However...

"Aron, Endeavor!"

As soon as it appeared, before Aerodactyl could react, it saw a little iron-skinned monster charging at it.

Although Aron is still at full health, the Endeavor effect of a level 1 Pokémon is still outstanding, and Aerodactyl almost instantly performed a "vanishing HP bar" act.

Taking advantage of Aerodactyl being stunned, Qingyu immediately commanded his Trainer avatar on the screen.

Aron, which was performing a backflip in the air due to inertia, was recalled, and the "wife-mon" Gardevoir appeared brilliantly, completing an elegant finishing blow with Psychic before Aerodactyl's attack arrived.

Watching the score reach 2:1, Qingyu couldn't help but show a satisfied smile.

"Sandstorm might not be able to finish off some Pokémon, but Aron still has teammates, right?"

Sandstorm taking the final blow is just a clever trick; as long as you can beat the opponent to a pulp, there are naturally ten thousand ways to solve it.
