Chapter 352: Jinghe in the Stratosphere?
Chapter 352: Jinghe in the Stratosphere?
"Teacher Jinghe, please give me some guidance!" Xiao Song stood on the battlefield, and his aura immediately changed.
Whether it was the Snowpeak Gym or Xiao Song, they both emphasized "aura."
In Pokemon battles, in teaching, and even in love and fashion, Xiao Song always sought to match or surpass others in terms of aura.
"Wow! That's a great aura; I like it!" Da Ye, sitting in the audience, exclaimed with a bloated expression.
He, too, was someone who valued aura.
Xiao Song glanced at him, pursed her lips, and then threw out a Poke Ball.
"Go, Snow Tyrant!"
The massive Snow Tyrant had a humanoid form and was the prototype of the "Snowman" in ancient legends. With its Grass and Ice attributes, it was actually at a significant disadvantage.
However, Snow Tyrant had a very useful ability—Snow.
"Stir up the snowstorm, Snow Tyrant!" Xiao Song shouted with a powerful aura.
Whoosh—
In the vast battlefield, snow began to fall, and the ground was quickly covered in a layer of snow.
At the same time, Jinghe also summoned his Pokemon.
"Ku!"
Amidst the red light, Bear Pupil leaped into the arena, tightening his headgear and waving his fists. His stern expression matched his aura, which was no less intimidating than Snow Tyrant's.
When it came to aura, Bear Pupil, who considered himself extraordinary and proclaimed himself as the "Heavenly Chosen Bear," should be one of Jinghe's Pokemon capable of ranking among the best.
"Ku?"
Who are you? I don't slay nameless foes!
Bear Pupil pointed at Snow Tyrant and shouted.
"Kaa?"
Snow Tyrant, who was about to start the battle, clearly hesitated for a moment, and its rising aura instantly diminished by half.
Instead, Da Ye beside him showed a look of sudden realization and grabbed Ao Liu, asking:
"When I battled with Teacher Jinghe, did he interrupt my aura like this?"
Ao Liu realized it belatedly.
"Really?"
"Yes!"
Da Ye's eyes lit up as if he had found the key to success.
He understood! Snow Tyrant scratched its head, and for a moment, it didn't know how to respond, so it asked back:
"Kaa?"
Who are you?
Bear Pupil raised his head, snorted through his nose, and roared with "swagger":
"Ku~ Ku~!"
I'll tell you my name, and it will scare you. I am General Bear Instructor!
Jinghe's face instantly showed a hint of strain.
If only he hadn't boasted about the Three Kingdoms' "number one" mighty general so much.
"Bear Pupil, let's battle."
"Ku!"
Bear Pupil stretched out his arms, and his aura became even more surging.
Xiao Song witnessed the entire process and also showed a thoughtful expression.
So, it could be done like this.
At the referee's signal, the battle officially began!
"Snow Tyrant, Frost Breath!"
"Kaa—"
Snow Tyrant shuddered violently, and the freezing breath mixed with snow rushed towards Bear Pupil.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
You could see that on Bear Pupil's body, tiny frost began to appear, quickly spreading and thickening, even causing signs of freezing.
[Frost Breath: An Ice-type move with 60 power, but it always hits the opponent's weak spot!]
"Haha!" Da Ye laughed, "Even Teacher Jinghe has moments of being frozen!"
However, facing this situation, Jinghe remained calm.
"Bear Pupil."
"Ku!"
In an instant, the ice crystals covering Bear Pupil's body shattered.
Xiao Song's eyes widened slightly.
"How is that possible?"
Bear Pupil smiled, brushing off the ice chips from his fur.
Actually, he wanted to say something.
Compared to Snow Tyrant's freezing ability, our beautiful Ice Nine-Tails is far superior! Ice Nine-Tails not only enhanced Jinghe's resistance to cold weather but also improved the cold tolerance of the little ones.
"Close Combat!"
Boom!!
Bear Pupil's eyes narrowed, and he stomped his foot on the ground, kicking up snow and creating a dent. His body shot forward.
"Snow Tyrant, Aurora Veil!" Xiao Song hurriedly commanded.
Hum—
Snow Tyrant dared not show any negligence, swinging its arms downward to create layers of Aurora Veil.
"Ku!"
Bear Pupil smirked.
Too little! Boom! Boom! Boom!
With each punch, Bear Pupil shattered the Aurora Veil of Snow Tyrant like layers of a mirror.
In just a few punches, Snow Tyrant's Aurora Veil was completely shattered.
However, this slightly hindered Bear Pupil's offense.
Boom!!
The final punch landed on Snow Tyrant's body, causing it to grunt and plow two deep furrows in the ice with its feet.
Xiao Song didn't give up and instead seized the opportunity.
"Now, Snow Tyrant, Frost Punch!"
Close Combat was powerful, but it also left the user vulnerable due to the complete abandonment of defense, making it the perfect opportunity for a counterattack.
And at such close range...
"Payback!"
But before she could command Snow Tyrant to counterattack, Jinghe had already issued a new command.
Moreover, he was one step ahead.
Crack!!
The frost-covered fist struck Bear Pupil but didn't knock him back. Instead, the dark red Fighting-type energy swirling around him became even more surging.
"Ku!"
You're done? Now it's my turn!
A straight punch was unleashed.
Boom!!
The massive Snow Tyrant was sent flying, drawing an arc in the air before landing heavily.
Bear Pupil retracted his fist, stood still, and patted the ice chips on his shoulder, nodding slightly.
Not bad strength.
Jinghe smiled and said, "A strong aura is good, but you must also discern whether you've truly seized your opponent's weakness or if they intentionally exposed a weakness."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Song was momentarily stunned.
At this moment, Ao Liu's thinking became agile, and he suddenly realized:
"Using Close Combat intentionally exposes the weakness of lowered defense, and by controlling the distance between both sides, it induces the opponent to focus on physical attacks. It's even more convenient that Snow Tyrant is a Pokemon with balanced offensive and defensive stats."
Based on the opponent's characteristics, set traps, lure out their moves, and then win with a seemingly ordinary but well-timed move.
The first layer of battle is to command your Pokemon well.
The second layer is to construct your own tactics.
The nth layer is to induce your opponent to battle according to your strategy, which is equivalent to controlling them!
A glint of brilliance flashed in Ao Liu's seemingly simple-minded eyes.
Jinghe's tactical prowess has evolved from constructing strategies for his own Pokemon to "directing" his opponent's Pokemon in combat. While Xiao Song is still hovering around the lower levels, Jinghe is already operating in the stratosphere.
Ao Liu couldn't help but glance at Daye beside him.
Although Daye was impulsive, he could still understand the intricacies of the situation. Noticing Ao Liu's slightly strange gaze, he glared and said,
"Tactics be damned, I'll just smash them with my fists!"
Ao Liu pursed his lips.
Indeed, that was very Daye-like.
"Understood," Xiao Song said, nodding after a brief review.
However, he took out a second Poke Ball and regained his composure.
"But we won't give up easily! Snow Maiden, go!"
The snowy weather brought by Snow Tyrant remained, and Snow Maiden immediately disappeared into the blizzard upon entering the field.
Snow Cloak!
Jinghe also called back his Bear Pupil.
As a Ghost-type, Snow Maiden had a significant advantage over the Fighting-type Bear Pupil.
It was evident that Xiao Song had prepared for the Snow Team's combined defense.
However, Ice-type Pokemon had too many weaknesses, which were too obvious. Even when paired with other attributes, many disadvantages couldn't be compensated for.
Therefore, Jinghe sent out Charcoal Little Servant!
Charcoal Little Servant solemnly placed the Pokemon Egg in Bear Pupil's hands and then slowly walked towards the arena.
Bear!!
Despite the blizzard, its flames seemed to grow more intense.
The temperature was low, but the fire, fueled by the wind, only made it burn hotter!
Bear Pupil nodded solemnly, holding the Pokemon Egg.
Go with confidence!
A brother's entrusted item must be delivered with utmost care!
This is Gramps's "group rule"!
"Oh, it's Charcoal Little Servant, the ace Pokemon of Teacher Jinghe," Daye said, recalling Charcoal Little Servant's impression.
Ao Liu nodded.
Indeed, Teacher Jinghe had six ace Pokemon.
"Blizzard!!" Xiao Song shouted, launching an aggressive attack without hesitation.
Although Ice-type moves were halved in effectiveness against Fire-type Pokemon, the high power of Blizzard and the type advantage of Ice-type moves couldn't be ignored.
Moreover, Blizzard had an intimidatingly high accuracy rate in snowy weather.
Snow Maiden waved her icy sleeves, resembling a dancer gracefully moving in the snow, both elegant and magnificent.
But with each wave of her icy sleeves, a swirling cyclone formed, eventually transforming into a blizzard that howled with a chilling sound.
"Sunny Day!" Jinghe smiled and said.
"Guka!"
Charcoal Little Servant rubbed a strand of flame from its head and blew a breath towards the sky, instantly turning the flame into a beam of light shooting upwards.
Suddenly, the raging blizzard seemed to tear open, allowing warm sunlight to shine through, melting most of the snow.
"That's a smart move," Daye commented.
By taking control of the weather, not only did Snow Maiden's Snow Cloak ability become useless, but Blizzard's accuracy also...
Whoosh—
The blizzard whipped up by Snow Maiden still enveloped Charcoal Little Servant.
"What luck," Ao Liu shook his head.
Even without the support of snowy weather, Blizzard still managed to hit.
But Daye expressed that he was familiar with this.
This was why he disliked flashy moves.
Jinghe's eyes twitched slightly.
"Xiao Song's luck is incredible," he thought to himself.
"Charge Flame, go!"
Amid the howling blizzard, a flash of fire appeared, and Charcoal Little Servant, enveloped in flames, charged forward.
Xiao Song's eyebrows furrowed, and she said in a deep voice, "Snow Maiden, Water Pulse!"
Without the weather advantage, the Weather Team was like a toothless tiger.
Snow Maiden raised her arms and released a circle of water from her body, which rippled outwards.
Hiss—
The water rippled, and when it touched Charcoal Little Servant, it emitted a hissing sound.
"Guka!!"
Charcoal Little Servant's eyes widened, and the areas where the water had extinguished the flames turned red again, with its head and the flames behind it resembling a crown and cloak, like a suit of armor.
"Flame Jet!"
Within the orange flames, a golden light flickered, and Charcoal Little Servant clapped his hands, unleashing a surging pillar of fire.
"That's Flame Jet..."
Xiao Song's pupils contracted, overwhelmed by the fierce flames and the rising heat.
But she quickly sensed the danger and commanded, "Snow Maiden, protect yourself!"
The emerald green barrier slowly melted under the impact of the scorching flames.
Even the protective barrier shattered, but Charcoal Little Servant's flames didn't stop.
Not to mention the power of these flames, the duration also seemed a bit unreasonable.
"It's over," Daye said, hugging his arms confidently.
He was the one who knew best about the stamina of Jinghe's Charcoal Little Servant.
He believed that his Fire-type Pokemon were already unreasonable in many situations, but Jinghe's Charcoal Little Servant, with the protection of "Firelord's Vigil," was even more unreasonable.
The Firelord, instead of protecting the weak, only guarded the strong. Pfft!
Even the ice on the arena began to melt, and Charcoal Little Servant's flames continued!
As Charcoal Little Servant let out a low growl, the flames surged even higher!
Finally, when the fire dissipated, a large amount of steam rose around them, and Snow Maiden had already lost her ability to fight, lying in the hot water.
The battle ended.
Charcoal Little Servant took a deep breath and took out a brand-new piece of charcoal, taking a bite.
"Guka~~(`)”
"What is it eating?" Daye asked Ao Liu, narrowing his eyes.
"Wood... charcoal, I think," Ao Liu murmured.
A question mark appeared above Daye's head.
Charcoal, something to eat?
Could it be...
Daye's expression turned thoughtful.
He had another realization.
"I lost," Xiao Song exhaled and said calmly.
However, during the battle with Jinghe, she discovered many shortcomings of the Snow Team.
Setting aside some unreasonable moves, Jinghe chose to counter Xiao Song's team with type advantages, indicating that a pure Snow Team with only Ice-type Pokemon was far from sufficient.
Jinghe also generously shared his understanding of the Snow Team.
A Snow Team only needed one Pokemon with Snow to be effective.
