The telekinetic clay doll and Shakiras jumped up at the same time and landed on the ground at the same time. Violent seismic waves collided in the venue, and the gym, which was already almost destroyed, shook violently.
"Crack!" Right in the center of the venue, a crack suddenly appeared where the earthquake waves intersected, and it continued to expand as the earthquake move continued.
However, everyone's attention did not stay on the ground, but was attracted by the Natural Bird and the Sharptooth Land Shark in the air. The Sharptooth Land Shark suddenly jumped up from the ground and interrupted the Natural Bird's meditation with a move of dragon claws.
Not only did the Sharptooth Land Shark interrupt the Natural Bird's moves, the dragon claw on his other hand also chopped down at the Natural Bird's body. However, the Natural Bird, who had recovered from his shock, used his superpowers to restrain him. No matter how hard he struggled, he was unable to break free and fell into a stalemate.
"Shakiras, Ironhead!"
At this moment, Gongsun Yan suddenly gave an order, which made everyone present a little confused. Now, if Shakiras stopped using the earthquake, he would be attacked. At such a long distance, Tietou could not attack the opponent.
However, would the facts really be the same as they thought? Of course not. After Shakiras stopped using the earthquake, he stayed where he was for a while. At the moment when the earthquake wave approached him, Shakiras suddenly ejected a large amount of compressed gas, launching his body into the air.
As a result, Shakiras shot up into the sky in front of everyone's shocked gazes, and flew towards the direction of the natural bird, even producing a sonic boom along the way.
"Telekinetic clay doll, raise a wall of light in the direction of the natural bird!" Xiao Feng quickly gave orders to the telekinetic clay doll after seeing it.
As expected of Xiao Feng's initial Pokémon, Psychic Clay Doll instantly stopped using Earthquake and condensed a wall of light under the body of the Natural Bird. However, before the wall of light was completed, Shakiras had already approached the Natural Bird.
Just when everyone thought that the natural bird was about to be hit, the natural bird suddenly cried out and released the sharp-toothed land shark that he had restrained. The next moment, the light wall that was originally only half drawn was instantly completed, blocking Shakiras' body.
Although the wall of light was destroyed by Shakiras in the next second, this short interval was enough for the Natural Bird to shift its body and narrowly avoid Shakiras' attack.
Although Shakiras can fly with the help of compressed gas at a very fast speed, its disadvantage is also obvious, that is, it is not sensitive enough and can only fly in a straight line. It is almost impossible to change direction.
The natural bird that dodged Shakiras did not stay in its original position. After all, there was a Sharp-toothed Land Shark waiting for it nearby. Although he was also about to fall, it would not be difficult to take advantage of the opportunity to use a Dragon Claw on him. The natural bird could only dodge.
The telekinetic clay doll also suffered backlash for forcibly stopping the earthquake and forcefully using its mental power, and for a while it was unable to attack the Sharptooth Land Shark and Shakiras.
Shakiras and Land Shark were also unable to launch attacks due to other reasons, and both sides actually returned to the state before the war.
Chapter 258: Green Ridge Gym (Part 2)
"What a bold tactic. If it wasn't for the timely response, the Natural Bird would probably have lost its combat capability under the joint attack of the Sharptooth Land Shark and Shakiras. The dragon claws on the Sharptooth Land Shark's hands have not dissipated yet." Xiaonan said with emotion.
"I'm the one who's sighing. Why is it so outrageous? Before, Moonstone and Sunrock always held each other back, and now it's me. How can the super powers of the telekinetic clay doll and the natural bird be combined?" Gongsun Yan said helplessly.
That's right, the reason why the previous wall of light could be constructed in an instant was because the superpowers of the telekinetic clay doll and the natural bird suddenly merged together, producing an effect of one plus one greater than two. Otherwise, Shakiras' sudden attack would not be so easy to block.
"Haha, the Telekinetic Clay Doll and the Natural Bird are the trump cards of our gym. We passed the test relying on them." Xiaonan said proudly.
"But whether in terms of potential or personal strength, Moonstone and Sunrock are more outstanding, so we will focus on training them." Xiao Feng explained on the side.
After hearing this, Gongsun Yan suddenly realized something. He said that the strength of Moonstone and Sunrock did not seem like that of aces. It turned out that they were rookies. This made more sense.
With the powerful Moonstone and Sunrock in front and the well-coordinated Natural Bird and Telekinetic Clay Doll in the back, these two lineups are enough to deal with challengers. After all, most of the challengers are weaklings, and strong personal strength is enough to deal with them, and it can also serve as a training exercise.
After all, tacit understanding can be cultivated. In Gongsun Yan's previous life, he had four great friends: studying together, visiting prostitutes together, sharing the spoils together, and carrying guns together. This law also holds true in the Pokémon world, but the first three are not mentioned for now. Fighting side by side for a long time is equivalent to carrying guns together.
This was not the most touching thing for Gongsun Yan. What really made Gongsun Yan feel rare and precious was that Xiao Feng did not avoid mentioning the natural bird and the telekinetic clay doll when he said this, but the two of them did not show any dissatisfaction. Even Gongsun Yan was very envious of such a harmonious team environment.
Even Xiaozhi, who has the maximum Pokémon Charm, cannot guarantee that the Pokémon in the team will always get along harmoniously. No matter what, there will be some preferences. Gongsun Yan is no exception. Monarch will never let any Pokémon shake her position as the leader, although her motives may not be so pure.
"Your team is really harmonious..." Gongsun Yan said sadly.
"Yes, but they are our eternal partners, no matter how time passes!" Xiaonan and Xiaofeng said firmly, their faces full of seriousness.
"So that's how it is, the bond between trainers and Pokémon? It's really dazzling and desirable... Hahaha, Sparasi, it's really Sparasi!" Gongsun Yan showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, which finally turned into a laugh with his head raised.
"Well, let me show you the bond between me and Pokémon. The connection between me and Pokémon transcends space and time! Shakiras, Sharktooth, evolve!"
As if responding to their trainer, Sharktooth and Shakiras also raised their heads and roared, and two dazzling rays of light burst out from their bodies, covering their bodies.
This scene on the field attracted everyone's attention. The two rays of evolutionary light were like a symbol of the bond between Gongsun Yan and Shakiras, so dazzling and full of vitality.
"Roar!!!" x2
The light of evolution continued to twist, and the originally relatively short figures began to grow taller. The one that changed the most was Shakiras. His body, which was only meters long, began to stretch continuously, and finally reached a height of meters, completely exceeding the previous record.
Garchomp is not to be outdone. Although his changes are not as significant as Shakiras', his height of makes him stand out among the Garchomp population. The only one that can be compared with him is the Garchomp of Sirona that suppressed the entire Sinnoh.
However, body size cannot determine strength, otherwise the group of giant Bobos in the Seven Islands area would not be protected by the Alliance. Isn't it because they are so weak that they are about to become extinct?
However, giant Pokémon also have many advantages in battle, including but not limited to strong physical strength, strong resistance to blows, and powerful attacks. Except that the speed may be affected, there is almost no disadvantage.
Although Gongsun Yan has agility-type Pokémon like Serpentis and Zoroark, his favorite is still power-type Pokémon like Bankiras. A real man should punch hard, and only such a battle can be considered satisfying.
When the body shapes of Shakiras and others were fixed, the evolution was about to be completed, and the light of evolution gradually dissipated, revealing the evolved Garchomp and Bankiras.
A Pokémon shaped like Shark Pepper and a Pokémon shaped like Godzilla appeared in front of everyone. Their huge bodies stood in front of Gongsun Yan like two small mountains. Compared with them, the telekinetic clay dolls and natural birds on the opposite side were like children.
With the appearance of Bangilas, a huge sandstorm swept across the entire battlefield. Compared with the sandstorm used by Sun Rock before, this sandstorm was nothing. Both its scale and power were extremely amazing.
"Oh no, Tianran Bird, use the sunny day!" Xiaonan shouted anxiously.
"Telekinetic clay doll, create another earthquake!" Xiao Feng also hurriedly stopped Bangilas from activating his characteristics.
"Boxers! Boxers! Bankiras, let's use Earthquake as well, let the Psychic Doll see how strong you are after your evolution! Land Shark, use Sandstorm, make the sandstorm even more violent!" Gongsun Yan gave the order with great excitement, giving people a feeling close to madness.
After hearing the trainer's order, Chronobird immediately condensed a scorching fireball and spewed it into the air, attempting to cover the current sandstorm, but how could Garchomp let him do as he wished?
After Tyrannosaurus roared, a sandstorm of the same scale was set off from his position, which was no less severe than the one caused by Banguilas. The two sandstorms merged together perfectly, and the fireball fired by Natural Bird was mostly consumed by the sandstorm before it even flew into the air.
The fireball that finally broke out of the sandstorm was also shaky, and exploded with the last bit of energy.
Chapter 259: Green Ridge Gym (Part 3)
As the fireball exploded, a dazzling ray of sunlight shone through the hole in the ceiling, and the air became hot.
"I didn't expect that Tianran Bird has such a high level of proficiency in the Sunny Day move. It can even draw the sunlight over even after being weakened by the sandstorm." Gongsun Yan couldn't help but admire Tianran Bird.
"But the situation is still not saved. The double sandstorms have really weakened Sunny Day too much." Hearing Gongsun Yan's praise, Xiaonan just shook his head with an ugly expression. Now they are being beaten badly, what is there to be proud of?
"Indeed, it's wishful thinking to think that the natural bird can take away the weather. If Pikachu hadn't enlarged the hole a lot when he lured the lightning before, this little bit of sunlight would not have been attracted here." Gongsun Yan shook his head when he heard this.
"But it's better this way. You guys shouldn't have any more scenes to perform now. Just stay in the air quietly, Tyranitar. Bangilas, Garchomp, send the Psychic Doll away!" Gongsun Yan's expression changed instantly, and he gave orders to his Pokémon with a cold face.
"Oh no, telekinetic clay doll, use the light wall!" Xiao Feng shouted anxiously.
"Natural Bird, use your superpowers to help the Psychic Doll!" Xiaonan also ordered Natural Bird to protect the Psychic Doll.
Because the rising sandstorm completely blocked their vision, the sunlight that appeared from the cave made the temperature on the field a little hotter, but it was not able to penetrate the sandstorm at all. At this time, Xiaonan and Xiaofeng had lost the information about the positions of the Pokémon on the field, and could only hope for the adaptability of Tenchi.
Compared to Xiaonan and Xiaofeng's anxiety, Gongsun Yan had no worries at all. How could he lose when the dragon was riding on his face? Gongsun Yan couldn't think of how he could lose. He had the upper hand in terms of level and race value. If the cost of training was taken into account, he could continue to increase the weight of the weight.
The situation did not surprise Gongsun Yan. In less than a minute, the telekinetic clay doll was knocked out and fell heavily to the ground, losing its ability to fight.
What was going on? It turned out that before Gongsun Yan gave the order, Bangilas had already started to prepare the evil wave move. The moment Gongsun Yan gave the order, he spewed out the evil wave and hit the telekinetic clay doll on the ground fiercely.
The telekinetic clay doll was no pushover either. He had long felt that there was an energy gathering on the opposite side that he hated very much. He silently began to activate his superpowers, and a wall of light silently condensed in front of him.
At the moment when the evil wave was emitted, the telekinetic clay doll suddenly felt creepy and no longer concealed its own superpower fluctuations. It quickly connected the superpowers of the natural bird and condensed a second wall of light in front of its body.
Before the telekinetic clay doll could recover and release the third wall of light, the dark evil wave hit the first wall of light fiercely. The light wall of the telekinetic clay doll was not as abnormal as the one used by Moonstone, and there was no way it could have effects like rebound. It directly destroyed the first wall of light.
However, the first wave was strong, the second was weak, and the third was exhausted. Compared with the physical attack, Bangilas' special attack was simply disastrous. He couldn't even wait for the third wave and was directly blocked by the second wall of light.
Although the second wall of light was shaky, it finally blocked the evil wave. The telekinetic clay doll breathed a sigh of relief, and the superpowers that had been mobilized also became somewhat stagnant.
However, Bangilas is not fighting alone. This is a two-on-two battle after all. The strength of his teammates cannot be ignored. Besides, Tyrannosaurus is strong enough to fight two at the same time.
As early as when Banguiras used the Wave of Evil, Garchomp used the wave of the move to hide his body and disappeared in the sandstorm.
Although Garchomp's special ability is not to hide in the sand, how to use sandstorms to hide his body and get close to his prey is engraved in his genes. As a top predator in the desert, he doesn't even need to learn it, and can perfectly blend into the sandstorm with the help of his subconscious control.
When the Psychic Clay Doll thought that everything was fine and dissipated the superpowers covering its body, Tyrannosaurus jumped out from the ground in front of the Psychic Clay Doll and slammed into the Psychic Clay Doll hard, knocking the Psychic Clay Doll into the air.
Afterwards, Land Shark didn't give the Natural Bird and the Psychic Clay Doll any chance to react. A dragon god swooped down and crashed into the Psychic Clay Doll in mid-air, knocking it flying directly. After leaving the coverage of the sandstorm, the doll fell heavily to the ground, losing its ability to fight.
As Xiao Feng took the Psychic Clay Doll back into the Poké Ball, the situation on the field became clear. The main feature of the Natural Bird and the Psychic Clay Doll was their tacit cooperation, and their individual strength was lacking. After eliminating one side first, they were almost powerless to turn the situation around.
Thinking of this, Tianran Bird gave up hiding and began to burst out with all his strength. Now Tianran Bird thought that changing one would make up for his loss, and changing two would make a fortune. Continuing to delay would be like cutting meat with a blunt knife, and there would be no hope of winning. It would be better to cut the Gordian knot.
However, is Gongsun Yan the clichéd boss who beats the protagonists to the ground, then wants to have a knight duel, and is eventually defeated by the protagonist? Obviously not.
After eliminating the telekinetic clay doll, Bangilas and Garchomp fought even more cowardly. They would never attack unless they were 99% sure. They would not open their mouths even if meat was right in front of their mouths, highlighting their steadiness.
Tianranniao was so angry that he almost cursed. He tried all kinds of offensive methods. His commonly used sunny day move couldn't even break through a double sandstorm. Once the sandstorm showed signs of weakening, the two bastards on the opposite side would immediately add another one.
It is impossible to fly away from the range of the sandstorm. No matter where he flies, the sandstorm will always follow him. The sandstorm can even predict his movement and wait for him at the target location in advance.
Xiaosheng, who was standing by, looked at the sandstorm that kept moving on the field, and asked Xiaogang beside him with great confusion. As for why he didn't ask Xiaozhi, it was naturally because compared to the hot-blooded and stupid Xiaozhi, Xiaogang was more knowledgeable.
"Hey, Xiaogang, I remember that the sandstorm move should not be controlled at will? Why does the sandstorm on the field keep changing with the position of the natural bird?"
"This question is very simple, that is..."
Chapter 260: Green Ridge Gym (End)
"This question is very simple. It's because Bangilas' title is the Desert Tyrant!"
When Xiaogang mentioned the title of Bangilas, there was a gleam in his eyes, which were usually invisible, as if this name was very important in his heart.
In fact, this is not surprising. Brock is the former gym leader of a Rock-type Pokémon. When Ash went to school in the Alola region, he became the gym leader of the Nibe Gym again. This shows Brock's love for Rock-type Pokémon.
And Bankiras, a Pokémon that is almost the ceiling level in the rock type, is absolutely like a sacred weapon or a dream lover to Xiaogang. However, due to the pressure of life, Xiaogang has never thought about cultivating a Bankiras, even if he can accumulate merits for a few years and exchange it for a baby Bankiras from the League.
As mentioned before, all quasi-god Pokémon are indeed very powerful, but the corresponding training costs are also ridiculously high. The time required for training is naturally nothing for Xiaogang, but the resources required are beyond his ability to bear.
Therefore, Xiaogang never thought about raising a young Kiras. In fact, if Gongsun Yan had not given Xiaogang an ancient feathered insect, Xiaogang would have become the only rock-type gym owner in all regions without a fossil Pokémon.
Other rock-type gym leaders like Dujuan and Hyouta all captured fossil Pokémon. Hyouta is not to be mentioned, as he originally mined fossils. However, although she, a teacher at the Pokémon school, looks inconspicuous, she also has fossil Pokémon.
As for why, it is definitely not a reward from the school. According to a Mr. Gongsun Yan who wishes to remain anonymous, the relationship between the famous former Hoenn region champion Daigo and Dujuan is not ordinary. In addition, the city of Kanaz where Dujuan is based is the headquarters of Devon Company. You think about it carefully.
"That's right. Before, when we were at the Fines Plateau, Xiaoyan told me that Mr. Transition's Banguirus controlled the sandstorm on Team Magma during the battle and did not affect his teammates at all." Xiaozhi on the side also added.
"Well, the reason why the Bangilas are called the Desert Tyrant is not only because of their sand-raising properties, but also because they can perfectly control the sandstorms they release, which is a very scary thing in the desert area." Xiaogang also nodded and said.
The weather was bad and the Natural Bird couldn't run away, so he just gave up and mobilized his super powers to attack Tyrannosaurus. Because Bangilas had evil attributes, the Natural Bird's current super powers could not shake it, so he chose to give up.
But Garchomp was no fool. When he found out that the Natural Bird was going to attack him, he hid beside Bankiras. Bankiras was also very smart and kept spitting out evil waves on the field, which directly filled the environment around him with evil energy.
Faced with this shameless style of play, the natural bird didn't even bother to fight back. Even with its superpowers, it couldn't get even one meter close to Bankiras. It was ready to declare GG. This nm had tried every countermeasure, but none of them worked. Continuing to fight would only be bullying the bird.
As for using superpowers to control rocks and attack Bangilas and the others, that was not realistic. After these fierce battles, there were no rocks on the field, not even any larger stones. Only a pile of fine mud and sand remained.
Even if these things were compressed by super powers and thrown at Bangilas and the others, they probably wouldn't even bother to dodge because they were tired. Having good physical strength and high defense means you can do whatever you want. Why would you need to dodge attacks that can't even be broken by defense? It's very troublesome.
In fact, using super powers to control the opponent's attacks to counter the opponent is the strength of the Natural Bird. But Bankiras and Garchomp have no moves at all. Except for Bankiras who occasionally shoots a wave of evil to the side to replenish the evil energy, Garchomp doesn't move at all, showing a leisurely and comfortable look.
In this way, Natural Bird was dragged into the killing line by the rogue style of play. Tyrannosaurus took off with a jet and rushed to the side of Natural Bird. In order to prevent Natural Bird from counterattacking "before death", Bankillas escorted it with the evil wave throughout the whole process. Finally, Tyrannosaurus killed Natural Bird with a dragon claw and won the battle.
After putting the Natural Bird back into the Poké Ball, Xiaonan and Xiaofeng came over to shake hands with Gongsun Yan cordially, saying that they had learned a lot from today's battle.
Don't think too much. I'm not being sarcastic here. Because of the impact of the double sandstorm, in the second half of the battle, the three trainers on the field lost control of the Pokémon on the field. After trying to command Birdwing to no avail, Konan gave up and waited for the final result.
So they didn't know what exactly happened on the field. They probably still thought that it was Tianran Bird who managed to hold on for so long under such a disadvantageous situation. They might even be praising Tianran Bird's bravery in their hearts.
"Ahem, no, no, let's learn from each other, learn from each other."
Gongsun Yan now didn't dare to look directly into Xiaonan and Xiaofeng's eyes. He was afraid that he would not be able to help laughing, and he was even more afraid that he would feel guilty after seeing their innocent and kind eyes.
Although he didn't know what happened in the end on the field, he had some understanding of the strength of Bangilas and Garchomp. Not to mention that they used a trick to send the Psychic Clay Doll off the field, even if the Psychic Clay Doll and the Natural Bird were ready to wait for them to come over, their defenses would probably be broken down at the first sight.
Thinking back to how much trouble these two little bastards had caused at the Odamaki Research Institute, Gongsun Yan knew something was definitely wrong even with just a little bit of ruthlessness. Who knows how badly Tianraniao must have been tortured.
Now the opponent's trainer came over and shook hands with Gongsun Yan in a friendly manner. How could Gongsun Yan not feel guilty? If the opponent knew the truth, who knows how he would settle the score with Gongsun Yan.
However, Gongsun Yan did not expect that Tianran Bird did not suffer as much physical torture as he imagined, but the mental torture was much more serious than the physical torture. It was estimated that Tianran Bird would not be able to come out of the shadow for a week without recuperation.
Living things naturally have the instinct to seek good and avoid danger. Although Gongsun Yan did not know the whole truth, he also knew that there would be no good results if he stayed in Green Ridge City for too long.
After getting the Psychic Badge with Xiaozhi, Gongsun Yan couldn't wait to suggest setting off directly after breakfast the next morning on the way back to the Pokémon Center.
Although Xiaogang and the others were very confused, they did not refuse. After all, time was quite tight and leaving earlier would increase the margin for error.
Chapter 261: King Genji appears
On the morning of the second day after Gongsun Yan obtained the Soul Badge, Xiaonan and Xiaofeng were heading to the Pokémon Center in Green Ridge City together, intending to take back the Pokémon stored in the Pokémon Center and to say hello to Gongsun Yan and his friends by the way, after all, Gongsun Yan and his friends were about to embark on a journey.
Just ten minutes after Xiaonan and Xiaofeng walked into the Pokémon Center, an angry voice was heard from the Pokémon Center. The voice was so sad that it made people cry.
"Gong! Sun! Yan! You bastard! Don't let me catch you!"
Moving the camera to the Pokémon Center, we saw Xiaonan, with her hair standing on end with anger, standing at the door of the room where Gongsun Yan lived last night and roaring. Xiaofeng was carefully trying to dissuade her sister, but she didn't dare to say anything extreme.
"Sister, there's no need to be so angry. Gongsun Yan deserves it. There's no need to punish yourself by being angry. Besides, didn't he also leave an apology letter?" Xiao Feng said cautiously.
"Oh? Really? Then come and see what he wrote!" Xiaonan laughed out of anger and handed the note in his hand to Xiaofeng.
