Chapter 299: Abiding by the Basics of Battle?
Chapter 299: Abiding by the Basics of Battle?
"Two, twenty-four consecutive wins for Gramps!"
"That's incredible! With just one Gramps, he defeated twenty-four Pokemon of four Trainers?"
"Crazy! Either I'm crazy, or this world has gone mad!"
In the live streaming room, viewers were going wild, furiously typing comments.
As the number of consecutive wins increased, more and more viewers joined in.
Consecutive wins in the Battle Tower weren't uncommon, as many had achieved such streaks, which was why they could encounter the Battle Tower Overlord.
But to achieve a perfect 24-win streak with just one Pokemon was unheard of.
This made Ah Chao, who was also watching the live stream and monitoring the viewer count, grin from ear to ear.
What a bargain!
An incredible bargain!
Ah Chao admired his decision and Ah Jinghe's ability to create such a spectacle.
He had expected Ah Jinghe's reputation to bring attention to the Battle Frontier, but he hadn't anticipated that Ah Jinghe would exceed his expectations with just one Gramps.
"Gramps, do you want to take a break?"
On the stairs leading to the fifth floor of the Battle Tower, Ah Jinghe asked.
"Giggle?"
Gramps, who was walking ahead with his distinctive gait, turned around and shook his head decisively.
I'm in the zone right now!
He reached the fifth floor and faced the already exhausted fifth-floor guardian Trainer, "boasting":
"Giggle! (▼▼;)"
Today, I'm going for a hundred!
Ah Jinghe's expression was peculiar.
With Gramps' energy, if he didn't expend some during the day, how could he possibly be well-behaved at night?
He was brimming with excess energy.
However.
Speaking of which, the Battle Tower did have high requirements for consecutive wins and endurance, but the strength of the Trainers and Pokemon on each floor was indeed somewhat average.
They were a notch below the average Trainers who had collected eight Badges and participated in the Quartz Conference.
For Gramps, who possessed endurance, the pressure wasn't too overwhelming.
It was only because Pokemon in the Pokemon world didn't have a 'PP' limit; otherwise, Gramps' move points would have been nearly depleted after so many battles.
"Is this Ah Jinghe and Gramps' 'Perfect Form'?"
Yasha, who had followed them all the way up, muttered.
The three of them had witnessed Ah Jinghe's Ghost Stone's 'tower climb' at the Academy Festival, where it had defeated ten opponents in a row.
At that time, Ghost Stone still had the strength for one more battle, but Ah Jinghe, who had already won the grand prize, chose to concede.
And now.
Ghost Stone had evolved into Gramps, and it had mastered the endurance ability that Ghost Stone hadn't been able to grasp, making it truly unleashed.
Additionally, Ah Jinghe and Gramps' tactics... Most opponents couldn't even touch Gramps before they were defeated.
"It doesn't feel like it's enough yet," Du Juan said.
In Ah Jinghe's own words, Gramps hadn't mastered Illusion Space and Mirror Attribute, which were two moves that could serve as tactical cores.
So, Gramps' tactical repertoire could only be considered half-formed.
Most of the time, they relied on 'Substitute Toxic', 'Forced Hypnosis', or stacking negative buffs.
There were some more sophisticated and strategic moves that Gramps couldn't use yet.
During this Battle Tower challenge, Ah Jinghe and Gramps primarily used control and trickery tactics.
They restricted the opponent's first Pokemon, then Gramps stacked buffs and debuffs, making it an easy pushover for the rest of the team.
Gramps had now mastered moves from various types, and in terms of coverage, it was already well-rounded.
[Gramps, amazing! Gramps, amazing!]
Kira Kyi hovered by Ah Jinghe's side, looking very happy.
It hadn't encountered many battles, but it felt like Gramps was having a great time, and everyone was praising Gramps' strength.
This made Kira Kyi wonder if it could also be as strong as Gramps and receive everyone's praise.
"Gramps, Energy Ball!"
A verdant Energy Ball exploded, hitting Mountain King and harvesting the last of its Grass-type energy, leaving Mountain King with no more strength.
"Damn! A perfect 42-win streak?"
"The guardian Trainer from before looked familiar. Wasn't he in the top 16 of some tournament?"
"Ah Jinghe is amazing!"
"After watching this, I feel inspired! I want to challenge the Battle Frontier too!"
"."
The strength of the Trainers in the Battle Tower did vary from floor to floor.
Theoretically, after winning seven consecutive battles, Ah Jinghe had already cleared the Battle Tower and could obtain the Silver Emblem.
However, this didn't count as conquering the Battle Tower; only by defeating the Battle Tower Overlord could one be considered the conqueror of the Battle Tower and receive the Golden Emblem.
Of course, the points obtained from the Silver and Golden Emblems were also different.
"Gramps, how are you holding up?"
"Giggle! d(○)"
Gramps gave a thumbs up.
It was evident that after so many consecutive battles, even Gramps had expended a significant amount of energy.
Ah Jinghe was very satisfied.
If this were a game...
[Gramps' experience has increased significantly!]
At least three or four levels' worth of experience.
[Gramps, amazing!]
Kira Kyi watched with delight, cheering Gramps on like the ultimate cheerleader.
With Kira Kyi's 'blessing', Gramps waved his hand and headed for the top floor.
"Giggle!"
Next one!
"The top floor is the Battle Tower Overlord, right?"
"My Ghosty is so brave!"
"But the Battle Tower Overlord is no pushover."
"I heard that the Battle Tower Overlord, Miss Lilla, can command her Pokemon without saying a word?"
The leader of the Battle Frontier could be compared to a Gym Leader.
Of course, there were some differences.
For example, the Pharaoh Shinden of the Battle Pyramid was much stronger than most ordinary Trainers.
Even Ah Jinghe's fans didn't expect him to have an easy time after so many battles when challenging the Battle Tower Overlord.
Clang, clang, clang—
The lights on the top floor of the Battle Tower lit up one by one. A female Trainer with purple hair, wearing a black fitted suit, and donning a pair of black gloves stood on one side of the battlefield.
The Battle Tower Overlord, none other than Lilla!
Jinghe inwardly muttered, surprised to find her here.
"Professor Jinghe, I've been waiting for quite some time," Lilla greeted him with a smile.
Jinghe was quite familiar with Lilla, and for a good reason.
Theoretically, Lilla was also a "transcender," having emerged from the Ultimate Cave in the Alola region, where she was discovered by Morden and Handsome, then members of the International Police.
Lilla had lost all her memories, and upon Handsome's invitation, she joined the International Police, working directly under him.
Her exceptional abilities and hard work led to rapid promotions, and she eventually became Handsome's superior within the organization. By the time the UB Incident erupted in the Ultimate Cave of the Alola region, she had already risen to the position of Director of the International Police's UB Countermeasures Headquarters.
In other words, within a few short years, Lilla had not only become the Battle Tower Overlord but also a high-ranking member of the International Police's leadership. Her capabilities were undoubtedly exceptional.
Jinghe wasn't aware of her current position within the International Police, but Lilla was undoubtedly a formidable Trainer.
"Overlord Lilla," Jinghe acknowledged with a smile and a nod.
"I must thank you for your contributions, Professor Jinghe," Lilla said.
The Ocean Team members that Shinden had brought back last night were handed over to Lilla, who was responsible for the subsequent investigation.
Jinghe understood her implication and immediately responded, "This is what we ordinary League Trainers should do."
Lilla smiled faintly.
Ordinary? An ordinary Trainer had used a single Gramps to climb all the way to the top of the Battle Tower with forty-two consecutive victories?
"However, contributions aside, I will not go easy on you!" Lilla declared, gripping a Poke Ball.
"Of course," Jinghe replied.
The rules for challenging the Battle Tower Overlord had changed from a 6v6 full rotation battle to a 3v3 rotation battle.
After all, most challengers had already fought numerous battles, exhausting their Pokemon.
Facing the stronger Battle Tower Overlord in another 6v6 battle would be pointless for an ordinary Trainer.
Even with the 3v3 format, the challenge would undoubtedly be more difficult than before.
Lilla immediately threw her Poke Ball, and a Hudie holding two spoons appeared in the arena.
Jinghe, of course, sent out Gramps.
The purple-skinned chubby Pokemon's fighting spirit remained high.
Jinghe's expression turned slightly grave.
Gramps vs. Hudie—a battle between fragile speedsters, where the faster one could theoretically defeat the other in an instant.
In such a battle, the first move was almost as good as winning.
"Gramps vs. Hudie? What a classic matchup! Whoever moves first will blow up the opponent's base!"
"Lilla doesn't even need to give voice commands to her Pokemon?"
"Huh? Is Professor Jinghe finally going to lose?"
The live stream suddenly attracted a flood of viewers.
Aida was left stunned by the barrage of comments and data.
Are you all fake fans? You just want to watch Professor Jinghe lose?
The battle began as the referee lowered the flag.
Lilla's expression turned serious, and Hudie moved at the first opportunity.
No matter how fast the commands were, they couldn't match telepathy.
A faint blue psychic light flashed in Hudie's eyes, and its two spoons crossed as an intense psychic force gathered.
Mind Shock!
But just then, a pitch-black Shadow Ball appeared with lightning speed, right in front of Hudie.
Lilla and Hudie's pupils constricted in unison, revealing a hint of disbelief.
They hadn't heard Jinghe's command, and the Shadow Ball's release speed was astonishing!
"Block it!" Lilla's voice echoed in Hudie's mind.
The psychic power that had emerged struggled to release just before the Shadow Ball arrived.
Boom!!
The black and blue lights intertwined, erupting with a thunderous roar.
At the same time, Lilla and Hudie sensed a change in Hudie's shadow, and the opposing Gramps began to dissipate like mist.
Hudie's spoons bent slightly, and its body vanished from its original position.
When it reappeared, it was already on the other side of the arena.
Teleport!
Jinghe smiled slightly upon seeing this.
Lilla and Hudie's hearts skipped a beat.
Damn, we fell for it!
The earlier disturbance in Hudie's shadow was Night Shadow, and to dodge, Hudie had teleported right in front of Gramps! The dissipating black mist quickly condensed, and Gramps grinned menacingly, throwing a dark sphere—
Boom!!
Shadow Ball, direct hit!
Hudie was unable to battle!
In just a few moments, the first battle had already decided the victor! The speed of the battle left viewers who had turned away to get snacks, intending to watch Jinghe lose, frantically typing question marks in the live chat.
The screen was filled with question marks as a sign of respect.
"???"
"??? What just happened???"
"Wait! Didn't Professor Jinghe give any commands either?"
"Is this the highest level of training—not giving commands?!"
"Pfft! I'd rather believe Professor Jinghe is also a psychic!"
"So... fast."
Buzz—
However, just as Hudie seemed to be at a disadvantage, a light gray transparent barrier expanded from where it had fallen, covering the entire battlefield.
Illusion Space!
Hudie had managed to activate Illusion Space just before fainting.
No, Illusion Space has a priority of -7. How could it be activated so easily?
Jinghe couldn't help but think to himself.
I hate you cheaters who use hacks in battles. None of you follow the basic rules of battling.
"Gramps, smash this space!"
