Chapter 47 Rotation
Chapter 47 Rotation
Firestone Gym, Central Battle Arena.
Gui Hai and Bai Xian were positioned at opposite ends of the battle zone.
Zheng Xu and Pan Xingyang stood in the referee area as referees.
Seeing that both sides were almost ready, Pan Xingyang raised the small flag in his hand.
"The trainer Guihai from the Tower of the Otherworld will face the Magma City Gym Leader Bai Xian in a 3-on-3 battle. The winner is the one who defeats all three of the opponent's Pokémon."
"Now, the battle begins."
As he spoke, Pan Xingyang waved the flag down, and Zheng Xu, who was standing next to him, pressed the scoring button.
Upon hearing the command to start the battle, Guihai and Bai Xian simultaneously raised their Poké Balls and threw them into the battle zone.
"Go, Mimikyu!"
"It's you I choose, Iron Palm Warrior."
Two Poké Balls opened in the air, and two Pokémon appeared on the field.
However, the difference in their body sizes is quite significant.
The Iron Palm Warrior stood like a small hill in the battlefield.
Mimikyu, on the other hand, is like a tiny mouse in front of an elephant—frighteningly insignificant.
However, Pokémon battles are not about comparing body size.
"MimikQ, get moving, create shadow clones, and then magic flashes."
Bai Xian frowned slightly. He hadn't expected that Gui Hai would send out the Mimikyu with the help of a fairy, which would double the strength to counter his Iron Palm Warrior.
However, as a veteran of many battles, he has fought against the opponent's attributes before.
"Iron Palm Warrior, take the hit, then use your strike."
On the battlefield.
Upon hearing Ghostsea's command, Mimikyu immediately began to move at high speed.
As they moved, their numbers increased, and soon there were more than a dozen Mimics surrounding the Iron Palm Warrior.
At almost the same time, all the Mimikyu bodies were glowing.
A beam of white light suddenly struck the Iron Palm Warrior, causing its mountain-sized body to sway.
However, Iron Palm Warrior's eyes flashed, and he saw through Mimikyu's shadow clone, striking out with his palm.
The fan-like palm struck Mimikyu's small body with a thud, smashing it into pieces.
But that was just a stand-in.
The real Mimikyu just made eye contact with Oni-kai, and in that instant it knew what to do.
"Riddle".
Iron Palm Warrior looked up and saw Mimikyu's eyes crinkle into crescent moons as if she were flirting.
Iron Palm Warrior felt a moment of dizziness, as if his strength had diminished.
Just then, it suddenly heard the trainer's command.
"Iron Palm Warrior, muscular, then use Bullet Punch to knock the opponent down from the sky."
Upon hearing this, the Iron Palm Warrior's eyes sharpened again, and he performed two bodybuilding moves.
Suddenly, it leaped up, clenched its fists, and fired continuously like bullets, attempting to cleave Mimikyu down from the sky.
"MimiQ, the light wall held, then it played around."
A wall of light appeared in front of Mimikyu as light flowed around it.
At this moment, the Iron Palm Warrior's bullet fists came down like a storm.
However, most of the attack power was absorbed by the Light Screen, with only a small portion landing on Mimikyu.
Mimikyu seized the opportunity.
As if playing around, it stretched out its paw, grabbed Iron Palm Warrior's finger, and shook it. Then it jumped onto Iron Palm Warrior's shoulder and made a face.
However, the tail beneath the Pikachu costume emitted a white light and struck Iron Palm Warrior's face.
The Iron Palm Warrior's head was flung to one side, as if he had been hit by a cannonball, and he almost fell over.
"A good opportunity, Mimikyu, let magic shine once again."
"Riddle".
Before Ironclad Warrior could recover, Mimikyu unleashed another burst of intense light, striking the massive Ironclad Warrior and causing it to howl in agony as if its entire body were being burned by flames.
"Iron Palm Warrior, hold on, grab your opponent and use the tit-for-tat technique."
Iron Palm Warrior gritted his teeth, his eyes resolute, and grabbed the small Mimikyu with his large, fan-like hand, slamming it hard to the ground.
The next second, even without Bai Xian's command, the Iron Palm Warrior knew what to do.
Iron Palm Warrior slammed his fist into the ground.
The terrifying power, combined with the energy boost from the ground system, caused the battlefield to crack instantly.
The rift seemed to have a mind of its own, appearing almost instantly beneath Mimikyu, ready to devour it.
"MimikQ, leap up, psychic charge, and then another Magic Dazzle."
Just a second before Mimikyu was about to be swallowed by the rift, it suddenly leaped up from the ground despite its injuries, and a white dot shot out from in front of it, hitting Iron Fist Warrior right in the middle.
Ignoring the fist coming from the Iron Palm Warrior, he then fully activated the fairy energy in his body, emitting a bright light that shone on the Iron Palm Warrior.
"Boom."
Mimikyu was hit by Iron Fist's fist, spun several times in the air, and was then slammed heavily to the ground.
The Pikachu costume was somewhat damaged.
After unleashing this move, the Iron Palm Warrior knelt on one knee, severely injured.
"Come back, Iron Palm Warrior, Quick Fist Man Bullet Fist."
Bai Xian seized the opportunity.
He quickly recalled Ironhide and, almost at the same time, threw Hitmonlee's Poké Ball next to Mimikyu.
Have the substitute, Quick-Hitmon, use close-quarters combat against the severely injured Mimikyu.
As soon as Quick-Hitmon appeared wearing boxing gloves, he set his sights on Mimikyu, who was still lying on the ground and hadn't gotten up yet, and threw a punch like lightning.
One combo is all it takes to take down Mimikyu.
Bai Xian's timing for this quick rotation was excellent, as if he had practiced it countless times.
And it seems that Mimikyu will also be sent away by Quick-Punch Man.
At this moment, Guihai did not recall Mimikyu but instead issued the next command.
"MimiQ, sharing the pain."
Upon hearing this, Bai Xian's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly said to Quick Fist Man, "Quick Fist Man, hang in there."
Mimikyu took several punches, but also fired a strange ray at Quick-Hitman.
Although Quick-Punch Man stopped in time.
Its aura inevitably declined rapidly, eventually dwindling to only half of its former glory.
Mimikyu, who had just exhausted a lot of energy, stood up again, full of energy.
Before Bai Xian could continue giving instructions, Gui Hai used both hands to retrieve Mimikyu with one hand and throw out a Poké Ball with the other.
"Gengar, Shadow Ball."
Bai Xian's eyes narrowed, and he was about to recall the half-crippled Quick Fist Man and bring in Iron Palm Warrior once again.
However, as soon as Gengar opened its Poké Ball, a dark purple energy ball was launched from it, hitting Hitmonlee squarely.
"Boom."
The battlefield was filled with smoke and dust.
Bai Xian's Poké Ball failed to recall Hitmonchan, and naturally, his next Pokémon was not successfully switched out.
As the smoke cleared, two figures were revealed in the arena.
Bai Xian's already deep wrinkles were now even more pronounced.
He had planned to let Iron Fist Warrior take several hits from Mimikyu in succession, and then find an opportunity to use Swipe to defeat Mimikyu in one fell swoop.
Unexpectedly, the opponent also used a rotation strategy to outmaneuver them in the end.
The opponent truly deserves to be the youngest Elite Four level trainer, and the most enigmatic Ghost-type trainer.
He replaced two of his top generals with just one Pokémon.
This battle will not be easy.
