Chapter 61: Lapras, Sing for Us
Chapter 61: Lapras, Sing for Us
“Professor Jinghe!”
“And the ‘Royal Masked Man’!”
“Wow—These two are giving us a tactics lesson?”
Introduced by Duff, Jinghe and Kukui walked onto the stage, drawing a chorus of exclamations from the students below. Both Jinghe and Kukui were well-known figures, and their appearance caused the first-year Battle Class students, who had merely come for their regular tactics lesson, to erupt into excitement.
Many students pulled out their phones to capture the moment, while others began informing their friends or posting on the school’s message boards. Students from the second, third, and even fourth grades dropped their games, dates, and classes to rush into the lecture hall.
“Professor Jinghe?”
Dai, Fu, and Yasa, who were also in the audience, looked taken aback when they saw Jinghe. However, they quickly regained their composure. You could choose not to learn Professor Jinghe’s tactics, but you couldn’t afford to be ignorant of them.
“Both of you, get ready.”
Duff took on the role of the referee, signaling for them to summon their Pokemon.
“Go.”
Kukui threw a Poke Ball, and a robust, orange Pokemon appeared in a burst of red light.
“Roar~~”
It was none other than the Kanto region’s pseudo-legendary Pokemon, Dragonite!
In reality, Dragonite was even chubbier than expected, especially around the belly, which looked soft and inviting, making people want to pat it.
“It’s Dragonite!”
“The Royal Masked Man is being a bit unfair!”
“But Dragonite is so cute~~”
Seeing Kukui use Dragonite, Jinghe’s expression became slightly odd, but he still tossed out the Poke Ball he had prepared.
“Whoo~~”
Standing before Jinghe was a Pokemon with a hard shell on its back, a sky-blue Lapras!
‘Is this a prelude to Aya and Koga’s battle?’
‘No, this is teaching Koga how to handle Aya?’
Jinghe couldn’t help but think.
“It’s not the Substitute-Poison tactic.”
“Lapras! Ice-type moves are quadruple-effective against Dragonite, so Professor Jinghe has this in the bag!”
“I could do this too!”
With Ice-type moves being quadruple-effective against Dragonite, what tactics were needed? Just charge in!
But Kukui remained confident, and his confidence seemed to infect Dragonite, whose eyes sharpened.
“Roar! ”
“The battle begins!”
“Dragonite, use Mystic Guard!” Kukui made the first move.
Clearly, he was worried about Jinghe’s Substitute-Poison tactic, so he chose Dragonite, which could use Mystic Guard to avoid a lot of trouble. Even though Jinghe was using Lapras, he still opted for a safer approach, knowing that if things went badly, the “Freeze” status could be a headache.
Seeing this, Jinghe smiled and gave his command:
“Lapras, use Ice Beam.”
The students below had a point. With quadruple effectiveness, why bother with any other tactics? Just charge in.
“Whoo—”
A pale blue, freezing beam shot from Lapras’s mouth. But Kukui seemed to have anticipated this, grinning as he waved his hand.
“Dragonite, use Extreme Speed to dodge!”
Suddenly, Dragonite’s body glowed with a bright white light, and it flapped its wings, its speed increasing dramatically.
It managed to dodge the Ice Beam, only getting its tail grazed slightly.
“Extreme Speed” was a high-priority move, giving Dragonite an incredible speed boost. According to legend, Dragonite could circle the Earth in 16 hours, likely thanks to the boost from Extreme Speed.
If Dragonite and Kukui had a high level of synchronization, like Aya’s Dragonite, they could use Extreme Speed to perfectly dodge attacks.
Moreover, with Mystic Guard’s protection, the frost on Dragonite’s tail quickly dissipated.
More importantly, Dragonite somehow produced a partially eaten apple, wiped it on its body, and took a bite.
The item, a Leftovers, restored a small amount of Dragonite’s HP.
Jinghe had always been curious about Leftovers—whose leftovers were they, and how could they be so effective?
“Really dodged?!”
“Dragonite’s speed is much faster than Lapras’s!”
“Where’s the guy who said ‘I could do this too’?”
The students below found the situation increasingly amusing.
“Professor Jinghe, attributes aren’t everything.”
Kukui laughed, his eyes narrowing.
“Now it’s our turn!”
“Dragonite, use Thunder Punch!”
Jinghe sighed inwardly.
‘As expected, this is how it’s done.’
"Rampardos, sing the Song of destruction!"
"Roar~~"
The ethereal voice of Rampardos echoed through the air, like a clear and melodious mountain stream, visibly making the mighty dragonite’s body tremble.
Kurukuyi frowned as he observed the scene.
In the real world, the 'Song of destruction' works through special air vibrations that induce fear in the opponent’s heart. As fear grows, the Pokemon’s will to fight gradually diminishes.
This became a turning point in the match.
"The 'Song of Destruction,' is this a new tactic?"
"Doesn't this mean the end of everything?"
"."
Zila——
A "Thunder punch" struck Rampardos.
"Ugh!!"
Rampardos groaned in pain.
"Dragonite, one more time!"
Kurukuyi's voice came again.
Buzz——
A faint green barrier appeared around rampardos.
Hold on!
But it was quickly shattered by dragonite’s lightning-charged fist, and Kurukuyi's eyes flashed with fear.
Fear now!
"Reverse Scale!"
Dragonite’s eyes were instantly filled with blood, and a dark red aura enveloped its body. It fell into a frenzy, its claws lashing at rampardos.
Gripping, using "hold on" continuously, the success rate would drop, so most would stick to the principle of "hold on, don’t hold on."
Meanwhile, "Reverse Scale" would make dragonite lose control, but it would also crush "hold on" with its speed and power, defeating rampardos before it could use "hold on" again!
However, Jing He calmly commanded:
"Rampardos, sleep."
Sleep!
This rampardos' characteristic is "Hard Shell," so it won’t be hit in vital areas.
And the item Jing He gave it is "Mighty Belt."
At full health, it won’t be one-hit KO’d.
And "Sleep" will also fully restore rampardos' health!
So, even if Kurukuyi grabs the "hold on" gap, it will still be "tired" by rampardos.
Because even with the "Song of Destruction," the faster, more powerful, and more frequent dragonite would lose the will to fight.
Moreover, rampardos has mastered the move "Dream Talk" and successfully used "hold on" again.
For a moment, the classroom fell into an eerie silence.
A few minutes later.
Dragonite, due to "Reverse Scale," had calmed down, but its heart was filled with fear.
It sat on the ground, losing the will to fight!
"Aowu.(ˇˇ)"
"Winner, Jing He teacher!"
Dufu slowly announced the result.
The entire audience erupted in cheers.
The Royal Masked Man was already impressive, commanding dragonite to use "Divine Speed" to dodge "Rapid Light Beam," turning the tide, and successfully catching the "hold on" gap to launch a powerful attack.
How could Kurukuyi stand a chance against Jing He's tactics? "Too dirty, no way, who recorded this, I’ll be in trouble!"
"I’ve got it! Which student wishes to challenge me?"
"Teacher Jing He, if this tactic is used in a non-1v1 battle, what should we do?"
After all, if rampardos is recalled due to "Song of Destruction," the move’s effect would be nullified.
Jing He chuckled and patted rampardos on the head.
"Rampardos can learn 'Whirlpool' or 'Block.'"
"Damn! Another move!"
"I think I’m now strong! Everyone will have to change!"
"I wish to call Jing He a tactical master!"
"."
Jing He walked off the stage.
Ghis and Ice Six Tail rushed up first.
"Ow~~"
The little guy’s eyes were full of admiration.
"Is this about battling Ice-type Pokemon?"
He picked up Ice Six tail, and to Ghis, he said, "Relax, this is just one of your tactical reserves."
"Ku~ Jie~!"
Ghis was about to cheer excitedly when his body suddenly trembled.
He stuck out his tongue.
Rolling, his phone, covered in saliva, fell to the ground.
Jing He’s lips curled as he saw a good friend request.
【Earth King】: Pass.
He casually tapped "Reject."
"Good thing I set up the barrier, 'Earth King' is a nickname someone would dare to take."
Saying, he rubbed his hands on Ice Six tail’s body.
Ice Six tail: "??"
