Chapter 309: It's Just a Frost Bird Chick
Chapter 309: It's Just a Frost Bird Chick
"You've worked hard, Snorunt. You can take a rest now."
After Snorunt had picked up enough Berries to replenish its energy, Jing He decisively replaced it with a Lucky Egg.
The live stream was filled with various comments like "Tearjerker," "You've done well," and "Well done."
Later, Jing He found another opportunity to defeat his opponent and switched Musharna for Revealing Mushroom.
The atmosphere in the live stream gradually changed.
A Lucky Egg and a Revealing Mushroom?
What kind of team composition is this?
And when Jing He spent a lot of effort and, in the last two stages, let another veteran Voltorb take a break and replaced it with a Wind Sprite, the live stream's atmosphere changed even more.
In the end, Jing He's team became:
"Damn! A Wind Sprite, a Revealing Mushroom, and a Lucky Egg? Please be a human!"
"Is this a speedrun? This is clearly disgusting to the opponent... no, even to the viewers!"
"These three Pokemon separately don't seem so bad, but combined, how..."
"No way, where's the trash can? I need to puke."
".
The Wind Sprite, Revealing Mushroom, and Lucky Egg—these three Pokemon, unless there's a huge power disparity, would peel off a layer of skin from anyone they faced.
Not powerful, but purely disgusting.
In the end, with the help of these three friendly Pokemon, Jing He spent six hours and finally passed all the preliminary tests in the Battle Factory.
Jing He rubbed his chin, grateful for the assistance these Pokemon had provided.
We've cleared the Battle Factory, proving that even weak Pokemon can become stronger... Why isn't anyone cheering for us, and instead, everyone is cursing us?
But, to be fair, the viewers who watched this live stream silently took note of these three Pokemon in their hearts.
Aside from the Lucky Egg being a bit harder to obtain, the Wind Sprite and Revealing Mushroom weren't that difficult to acquire.
Unknowingly, Jing He had driven the market for Wind Sprites and Revealing Mushrooms in the Pokemon world.
These people were shouting "Disgusting" and "Be a human," but their hearts were honest, and they chose to accept it all.
Furthermore, they wanted to use this team composition to deal with some "good friends."
The bitterness they experienced should be shared with others.
In the end, when Jing He reached the deepest room in the Battle Factory,
"Ugh—"
He saw the Battle Factory's leader, Dala, hugging a trash can and retching.
When Jing He and his team entered, Dala hadn't finished vomiting yet.
For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Dala was a robustly built Trainer with a rather rough personality but an incredibly strong sense of curiosity.
To better understand his opponent, Jing He, he watched Jing He's battles in their entirety, and the result was...
It seemed to cause a little discomfort.
Mainly, his strong curiosity made him subconsciously put himself in Jing He's opponent's shoes.
The viewers, though they were cursing, were putting themselves in Jing He's role, so their reactions were intense, but they were secretly enjoying it.
Dala was different. As the leader of the Battle Factory, he had to put himself in Jing He's opponent's shoes.
And this was the result.
"Come on, Teacher Jing He!"
Dala wiped the corner of his mouth, stood up, and strode to one side of the battlefield.
"Do you want to rest first?" Jing He asked tentatively.
However, Dala was very firm, waving his hand and saying in a powerful voice, "No need, we can start now!"
According to the rules, when challenging the leader, the challenger can choose three Pokemon from those they've used to clear the stages and their own Pokemon for the final battle.
Because of Dala's impatient nature, the two didn't have much interaction, and the battle began directly.
"I like leaders like this who are so decisive. Come on, Mr. Dala, please beat up Teacher Jing He!"
"I think Mr. Dala will also be disgusted."
"I wonder which Pokemon Mr. Dala will use?"
".
Amidst the viewers' anticipation, the two prepared their Pokemon at the referee's signal.
Dala had many Pokemon, which matched the Battle Factory well.
Originally, when facing challengers, Dala would choose randomly or even let the opponent choose the Pokemon to battle, but facing Jing He...
Dala felt that doing so was no different from asking for trouble.
"Go, Fire Camel!"
Bang—
With a camel-like appearance, its body covered in reddish-brown fur, and its humps resembling two volcanoes, the Fire Camel landed heavily in the arena.
The Rotom Pokedex went with Gramps and the others, and without a commentator, today's Pokemon introduction was absent.
Jing He's starting Pokemon was...
Wind Sprite!
Ability: Prankster!
The battle was about to begin.
The Wind Sprite blinked playfully, its fluffy cotton-like body swayed, and a current of air swirled behind it, greatly increasing its speed.
Tailwind!
With speed under control, the initiative was in his hands.
Dala clenched his fist and shouted, "Fire Camel, Fire Blast!!"
The next moment,
The Fire Camel roared, and the volcanoes on its back erupted, spewing terrifying flames mixed with scorching lava towards the Wind Sprite.
Boom!!
"Eee~!"
The Wind Sprite took a direct hit from the Fire Camel's Fire Blast, a fire-type move with a terrifying power of 150 points, and its HP was almost depleted, but it didn't lose its fighting ability.
White Herb!
"Damn! Mr. Dala is really impatient, starting with a Fire Blast (He's impatient.jpg)"
"But Teacher Jing He is more cunning; the Wind Sprite is holding a White Herb."
"But this is almost like sacrificing a Pokemon."
".
Upon seeing this, the live stream was filled with "He's impatient" comments.
"Wind Sprite, Fake Tears," Jing He commanded.
[Fake Tears: Lowers the opponent's Special Defense by two stages!]
"Eee~~()"
The adorable Wind Sprite started crying immediately, and its pitiful appearance made many viewers who had called it a "Disgusting Cotton" feel a twinge of sympathy.
"How can there be such a cute Pokemon like Wind Sprite?!"
"Protecting the best Wind Sprite in the world!"
The Fire Camel on the other side, upon seeing the Wind Sprite's appearance, immediately showed a look of reluctance in its eyes.
There was a brief moment of hesitation.
Without hesitation, Jinghe took out a Poke Ball and recalled the Wind Sprite, then threw out a second Poke Ball.
"Hachubo, Water Cannon!"
Whoosh—
The moment Hachubo appeared, it immediately spewed out a terrifying column of water, directly flipping over the heavy Fire Camel.
The Fire/Ground-type Fire Camel was four times weak to water, and with its Special Defense lowered by two stages, there was no doubt that Hachubo's Water Cannon directly rendered it unable to battle!
The plan was to one-shot the Wind Sprite, but the Wind Sprite and Hachubo combined forces, and a near-death counterattack ensued.
Dala took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
Thankfully, it wasn't a Revealing Mushroom or a Lucky Egg this time.
However, after defeating the Fire Camel, Jinghe also recalled Hachubo.
He prepared to play his cards right, waiting to see what Dala's second summoned Pokemon would be before deciding who to send out.
Today was a day for quality decks.
"I can't believe it, I'm crying. Today, Teacher Jinghe isn't even talking about his team, he's being so rational."
Rational?
It should be.
After all, he was only a fake Legendary Pokemon trainer, while the opponent was the real deal.
If a Frost Bird were to be sent out, it would still be a huge problem for his side.
"Go, Venusaur!"
And Dala's second Pokemon was the final evolution of the Kanto Grass-type starter Bulbasaur, Venusaur!
Dala made this move to counter Jinghe's Revealing Mushroom.
The signature move of the Revealing Mushroom, Mushroom Spore, was ineffective against Grass-type Pokemon.
Seeing Venusaur, Jinghe hesitated for a moment before throwing out his third Poke Ball.
"Roar~~"
In an instant, the wind howled and snow flew, with sparkling snowflakes dancing in the air.
The Ice Nine-Tails made its appearance.
Its snowy white fur swayed gently in the tailwind, its nine tails slowly unfurled, and the blizzard became more intense.
In the game, Tailwind and Snow did not affect each other.
But in reality, the airflow from the Tailwind unconsciously made the snowy day even colder and piercing.
With this, Jinghe's three Pokemon, Wind Sprite, Hachubo, and Ice Nine-Tails, had all made their appearances.
"Nine-Tails, Trick!"
With the Tailwind boost, Jinghe had the initiative all along, and it would be a waste not to strengthen his hand.
"Roar~~"
A cunning glint flashed in the Ice Nine-Tails' deep azure eyes, and as the Dark Mist brushed past, its aura continued to rise.
The scale of the snowstorm also grew.
"Venusaur, Sleep Powder!" Dala waved his hand.
"Dala!"
A dull, heavy roar came from Venusaur's mouth. The huge flower on its back swayed slightly, and it sprayed out a cluster of sparkling pollen, scattering it all over the battlefield.
"Haha, I won't use Revealing Mushroom, but now I'm going to put you to sleep."
"Wuu, my cute Ice Nine-Tails, please don't get hurt."
"I didn't expect Mr. Dala to be so reasonable."
The scattered pollen had a strong sleep-inducing effect, and to increase the success rate, Venusaur almost covered the entire battlefield with pollen.
As the Ice Nine-Tails' Trick ended, its Special Attack increased significantly, but inhaling the scattered Sleep Powder gradually made its condition listless.
Jinghe's Pokemon had good resistance to sleep, but Sleep Powder was not the same as Sleep Talk, and it still had a significant effect on the Ice Nine-Tails.
"Misty Field!"
Buzz—
As Jinghe's voice fell, a light pink aura instantly spread out from the Ice Nine-Tails, and a strange energy began to permeate.
In contrast.
The effect of the Sleep Powder had not fully taken hold and it lost its effectiveness.
"Good, good, Misty Field, no one can sleep, and no one can fall into an abnormal state!"
"I don't need it, so you can't use it!"
"This is too much, Teacher Jinghe."
Seeing this, Dala frowned.
"Venusaur, Mud Bomb!"
"Dala!"
Venusaur stomped the ground and spat out clumps of deep purple mud laced with poison towards the Ice Nine-Tails.
"Blizzard!"
With Snow, Trick, and Tailwind, not using Blizzard would be a waste.
The Ice Nine-Tails raised its front half and exhaled lightly, its tails swaying, and a terrifying blizzard immediately surged.
In an instant, the white, blinding blizzard filled the field of vision, and the howling cold air swirled.
Seeing this, Ashida breathed a long sigh of relief.
Thankfully, the Battle Factory's dome had been opened in advance; otherwise, this towering blizzard would have added another roof repair bill.
As the fierce blizzard gradually dissipated.
The huge Venusaur was buried under the ice and snow, only its back with a flower frozen into an icy crystal was visible.
Venusaur was unable to battle!
Only one Pokemon was left.
Dala pursed his lips.
After a brief hesitation, he grabbed the third Poke Ball at his waist.
However.
Just then.
Cree—!!
A loud cry came from afar, approaching the Battle Factory.
Hearing the sound, Dala and the Ice Nine-Tails looked towards the source of the sound.
Jinghe's expression, however, changed slightly.
Uh-oh.
Someone wanted to cheat!
Dala's face broke into a smile, and he said, "I didn't expect you to come at this time. Were you attracted by the blizzard?"
Not far away, a Frost Bird flew towards the Battle Factory.
"Roar?" The Ice Nine-Tails blinked.
What's going on?
Are we fighting the Frost Bird?
Jinghe glared at Dala and then gave the Ice Nine-Tails a reassuring look.
"It's fine, it's just a Frost Bird Chick."
