Chapter 531 Is this how you use Mega Kangaskhan?
After their match ended, Qingyu and Zhulan quickly returned to the rest room.
Due to the tight schedule, they don't have much time to analyze their next opponent, so they absolutely cannot miss the upcoming matches.
However, what Qingyu didn't expect was—
Cattleya, who was just standing opposite them and looked like she was about to cry from her own actions, actually came over for a "visit".
"What are you looking at? Do you think I can't accept this kind of failure?!"
After being given a strange look by Qingyu, Gadriya, who had just sat down next to Zhulan, immediately glared back.
No, it's nothing.
""
Qingyu shook her head.
"I just didn't expect you guys to come."
"Since we're here, let's watch the game together. Maybe we can get some insights that we might have overlooked."
He didn't have any objections to Cattleya and Wanlong.
After all, I've known them for so long. Although I might not admit it, we are indeed old friends.
The reason I used to "strike hard" was mainly because of Cattleya's provocation.
She won again today, so she should now understand who the real champion is, right?
Looking at Gadria, who was completely unaware and had familiarly reached out to hug Zhulan's arm, Qingyu's eyes showed a hint of helplessness.
Okay, it seems I was overthinking it.
Qingyu sighed and shook her head helplessly.
Why think so much about unnecessary things? Just watch the game!
The final match in the upper half of the draw was equally heavyweight, with the Adu/Shiba pair competing against Galar's Chibana and Kawu.
Logically, Cibaner should have brought Dante along to play in the doubles match.
Dan Di himself would naturally not refuse.
However, considering Guild Master Loz's business acumen and his vision of prioritizing Galar's development—
It's quite possible that participating in this doubles tournament would be a losing proposition; winning wouldn't generate much publicity, while losing would damage Dan's reputation. That's why they strongly advised him to give up the tournament.
Qingyu felt that the possibility was very high.
As for the other champions who didn't come to "have some fun" —
Karuni doesn't participate in many competitions; she spends most of her time filming.
Professor Kukui from Alola is probably already incredibly busy, so it's unrealistic for him to take more than a week out to compete.
Also, their Padiya President Ye Ci and the other four Heavenly Kings did not participate in the competition, probably because they were tied up with the follow-up work of Zone Zero and could not get away.
This can be clearly seen from the frequency of messages in the work group that Qingyu has already disabled.
Thankfully they didn't come, otherwise the water temperature would have risen again.
"Both sides are masters of dragon taming, Teacher Yu, which side do you think has a better chance of winning?"
When the two players stepped onto the field, Wanlong, who had been silent all along, suddenly raised her head and looked at Qingyu curiously, asking a question.
If I remember correctly, both of them have a good personal relationship with Teacher Yu, and they have both mentioned in public that they have received guidance from Teacher Yu.
So, is there a possibility that—
In fact, Teacher Yu is also a Dragon Tamer who keeps his abilities hidden.
After all, he is a genius who can train Salamence and Milton, and he also has an extraordinary attraction to legendary Pokémon.
Legend has it that there are quite a few dragons in Pokémon!
Just imagining this, Wanlong felt that she could add another element to the "heroic epic" she had previously conceived!
"Hmm—it's probably A-Du and the others."
Qingyu rested her chin on her hand, pondered for a moment, and then gave her answer.
Cibana is indeed a well-known name, but it depends on who you compare it to.
Although the dodo bird has been talked about by netizens for a lifetime for some reasons, its battle record is undeniable.
If it weren't for Aunt Kona constantly sniping at me, I would have become the champion long ago.
Even if their abilities are on the same level, their vision is clearly much worse.
Moreover, the teammates were also of a different level; Uncle Kawu was at best comparable to an average star player, and it was a hastily assembled doubles team.
Facing monsters like Adu and Shiba, the chances of winning are really slim.
"But in doubles, strange things always happen. What if something unexpected really happens?"
Qingyu's words weren't too definitive, and Wanlong nodded in agreement.
The battle began quickly.
A-Du and Shiba respectively sent out Steelix and Aerodactyl, while their opponents were Torkoal and BlastTurtle.
"What looks like a pterosaur isn't a dragon; that fire turtle actually possesses dragon-like attributes—"
"Pokémon is truly amazing."
Qingyu made no comment on the matchups on the field, but was more concerned about the choices made by the two "Dragon Masters".
It seems that the key to this battle is seizing the weather.
Kawu and Chibana are both excellent players on the Sunny Team, and the lighting on the field immediately became much brighter after Coal Turtle entered the game.
However, Adu and his group also have the ability to activate a sandstorm as a backup.
Furthermore, it seems that the pre-match intelligence gathering work of the team, including the team, was not thorough enough. They clearly did not consider that Shiba was not only a Fighting Elite, but could also pull out some other Pokémon with super strength.
Qingyu had a strong suspicion that he might be using Pokémon like Steelix and Golem as exercise equipment, which was why he tried to catch them.
But this Steelix, which rarely gets a chance to appear, happens to be extremely effective at countering its opponents' ideas.
When fire teams encounter ground-based creatures, they cannot escape the earthquake threat unless they can fly.
So, what exactly should we do?
The four people on the battlefield quickly gave their own answers.
The other three Pokémon on the field were surprisingly slow in reaction and speed, giving Aerodactyl unlimited room to perform.
It was the first to gather energy and project it into the air, causing a sandstorm to rise up and almost completely erase the effects of the sunlight.
Meanwhile, Steelix slammed its tail against the ground, causing a strong seismic shockwave.
The combination of flying teammates and earthquakes is one of the most common AoE (area of effect) strategies in doubles.
Kawu and Qibana, of course, weren't going to be foolish enough to take the earthquake, so they chose to recall their respective Pokémon.
Qibana is more like a weather master than a dragon rider, so even in sandstorm weather he can easily deal with it by taking out his Desert Dragonfly.
Not only did it avoid earthquake damage, it also allowed them to benefit from the sandstorm on the other side.
As for Kawu —
As a pure fire-attribute Jinchūriki, he could only send out the Flame Centipede to withstand the impact of the earthquake.
Ouch—it doesn't hurt!
Although they managed to withstand the first wave of attacks, this substitution made Qingyu shake his head repeatedly.
"They've gone far away!"
Flame Centipede is four times weak to Rock, Desert Dragonfly is four times weak to Ice.
On the other side, there happens to be an incredibly fast Aerodactyl, and Steelix can also learn Ice Fang.
But not replacing them is not an option, especially since Kawu's other Fire-type Pokémon would be seriously injured by this Earthquake.
Since the disadvantage is too great no matter what we do, there's basically no chance of winning.
It can only be said that the battle was already over the moment Shiba pulled out this unexpected Steelix.
"If we had Dynamax, it would be fine; we could just tank the damage and go all out."
Qingyu pursed her lips and announced the verdict ahead of time.
"But Dynamaxing requires a specially built arena, and this tournament was completely unprepared for that —"
"So, Cibana and the others have arrived."
As Qingyu had predicted, the situation turned out to be just as she had imagined.
The following events unfolded just as he had previously used Cattleya as a spinning top, with the situation completely turning in his favor.
Especially the Steelix's sudden use of Ice Fang caught Kibana completely off guard, as his attention was entirely focused on Aerodactyl. He had no choice but to swallow this bitter pill.
Their four Pokémon, which they had already revealed, were not very good against Steelix. In the end, they could only defeat Steelix with all their might and barely managed to get 1 point.
4:1, they weren't completely shut out, but it was still a fairly large score difference.
After all, it's an away game, there's nothing we can do about it.
Even if Leon really comes to compete, he would probably have a hard time getting past the two Kanto Elite Four members without Dynamaxing.
After watching this match, Qingyu only had one thought left: the next opponent doesn't seem easy to deal with either.
The two veteran stars from Kanto exert far more pressure than Gadriya and Wanlong.
Thinking of this, Qingyu subconsciously glanced at Gadriya again.
You're easier to hit.jpg
Cattleya keenly sensed the other person's gaze and immediately revealed a rather subtle expression.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Are you feeling the pressure of the next match?"
"Now that you've beaten me, you'd better keep winning until the very end! Don't embarrass Zhu Lan, do you hear me?!"
Cattleya spoke loudly, even leaning forward and pressing her hand on the table to barely make her small, loli-like figure cross the distance, and patted Qingyu's shoulder with her other hand.
Although the tone was still infuriating, it seemed to be encouraging him?
Seeing Zhu Lan's "kind" smile and her patting Jia Deliya's head, Qing Yu nodded and smiled back.
"Of course, since we're all here, we're definitely aiming for the championship."
"Then you'll just have to watch as Zhu Lan and I reach the pinnacle."
"...
""
Cattleya was speechless for a moment.
She did offer Qingyu some encouragement, but seeing his confidence still made her inexplicably uncomfortable.
You shameless bastard!
"Hmph, let's deal with those two legends first!"
"Wanlong, let's go!"
With Adu and Shiba advancing, the morning's matches were all over, and they really had no reason to stay in the locker room any longer.
It's good that I don't have to argue with Qingyu anymore, so I don't get angry at him again!
The afternoon matches were still extremely violent.
The show opens with a performance by Professor Oak and Grandma Kiku.
Even against opponents like Genji, the late-blooming Elite Four member of Hoenn, and Kagetsu, the Dark-type Elite Four member who looks like a delinquent middle-aged man, it still achieved a crushing victory.
because----
This time, Professor Oak finally unleashed his ultimate move.
Mega Kangaskhan and Dragonite!
These two Pokémon were the core members who followed Professor Oak out of Kanto and made a name for themselves internationally, which shows his respect for his two rivals.
Even after so many years, not only are Pokémon still at their peak, but Professor Oak's mind is still sharp.
So much so that Qingyu exclaimed that she had seen a ghost.
"No, what do you mean Mega Kangaskhan can be controlled separately?"
"What's the difference between that and a 3v2 game on the field?!"
Professor Oak's move of starting with a Mega Evolution and then using a high-five to control two opponents had already shocked Professor Oak from the very beginning.
Is this how you use Mega Kangaskhan?
The small Kangaskhan's offensive capabilities are indeed not very strong, but the effects it produces are just as good as the main body's.
Besides their high-five surprise attack, the mother and son, whose enhanced fist technique was confiscated in later generations, also fought with great ferocity, each punch stronger than the last.
Grandma Kikuko was equally unwilling to back down.
Even without revealing the Evolution Key Stone, a Gengar in its normal state can still pull off a lot of weird things.
For example, Gengar can use its Confusing Beam to confuse opponents, its Spirit Swoosh to reveal the items opponents are holding, and its skillful use of Repeat. Even as a Leaflet, Gengar shines in this role.
As the fight progressed, Qingyu, who was watching from the sidelines, gradually developed a ferocious expression.
How am I supposed to fight this?!
In terms of output, it can't beat Mega Kangaskhan. Once it's on the field and boosted up with Swords Dance, it can have infinite HP with a single Drain Punch, taking down enemies one by one.
Playing dirty tricks is too slow for Gengar, so you're completely led by the nose by Gengar, making you feel disgusted by the attacks.
Just thinking about facing these two seniors in the finals makes Qingyu people feel a little numb.
Of course, this is all predicated on them actually making it to the finals.
After gathering more information about Professor Oak and his team through the competition, Aoba continued watching the entire process until the last pair of contestants, Steven and Wallace, took the stage.
Their opponents are Kazuki and Rinka, who have not yet become the Four Heavenly Kings.
The two, still developing, were no match for the two champions. Even with their best efforts, they failed to complete the exchange and were easily defeated by Metagross and Milotic.
However, even after winning the match and securing the last ticket to the quarterfinals, their expressions remained tense.
It could even be said that the pressure was visibly off the charts.
As for the reason, everyone knows it very well.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that among the players who made it to the quarterfinals, apart from the two facing off against legends, no one should be unnerved.
Even if we don't meet them in the quarterfinals, we'll have to face them in the semifinals sooner or later.
Each half of the bracket has an almost insurmountable mountain, and to win the championship, one would need to defeat both of them in succession.
It's difficult to do, but now we have no choice but to grit our teeth and push through.
Comparatively speaking, Qingyu did feel a considerable amount of pressure, but he did not show it on the surface.
On one hand, he didn't want to pass on these feelings to Zhu Lan; on the other hand, he knew very well in his heart—
Both legendary players were probably after him.
Since Professor Oak and Master Horse both believe they have the ability to compete with them, what do they have to be afraid of?
Thinking about this, he suddenly understood why Cattleya wasn't too upset about losing this time.
Since it's a case of "the underdog overthrowing the superior," whether you win or lose, you'll make a killing and not lose anything. Just consider it a valuable practical experience.
Of course, if he actually succeeded, he didn't even want to imagine the level of media attention that would generate.
Qingyu could already foresee how lively the live stream would be, and maybe he would really become the "number one player below the Legendary level"?
However, it seems a bit too early to think about these things now.
Let's get past A-Du and Shiba first.
Judging from today's match, there's actually a high chance they'll change their tactics.
Qingyu fell into deep thought.
Fighting and Dragon types are actually quite afraid of Fairy-types, but the Dodo bird's name isn't just for show.
If he really becomes a fairy, it's quite possible that he won't play Dragon Pokémon with me anymore, just like today.
Is it possible to give up even the title of Dragon Master in order to achieve victory?
Hakito, you bastard!
However, it's not actually that troublesome to deal with.
Ancient Sword Leopard and Lucario might not be suitable to participate in this battle, given the considerable pressure that Shiba can exert.
so----
How about we try the Evil Spirit?
Many of my main Pokémon are legendary Pokémon!
Considering the main force of Zhulan, Qingyu quickly formed a rough tactical plan in his mind.
