Chapter 90: The Snowy Day Hide and Seek?
Chapter 90: The Snowy Day Hide and Seek?
The battle has begun!
Little Chun, just like Aldo, swings the wind with a snap of the whip in his hand, sternly declaring:
"Haxorus, Dragon Breath!"
"Whoo—!!"
With a long and slender figure,, Haxorus emits a ghostly roar. A faint light shines on the blue gem atop its head, and its mouth opens wide, spewing a vivid blue-purple flame-like breath that sweeps over the icy Six Tail.
Meanwhile, the figure of Haxorus also appears in Jing He’s field of vision.
Indeed, as he had anticipated, this Haxorus’s ability is “Shed Skin.”
"Run, Ice Chill Wind."
Jing He’s calm voice steadies Six tail, making it seem very composed. It immediately starts running swiftly through the fine snow, despite its short legs.
Don’t let the shortness of its legs deceive its speed, but with the “Snow Day” weather brought on by its “Hail” ability, the power of its “Ice Chill Wind” seems even stronger than before.
Bang!
The hot breath collides with the ice, instantly rising into a thick mist of water vapor.
Little Chun seems to have anticipated jing he’s command and six tail’s running position.
On the sidelines, Aldo murmured.
Haxorus doesn’t know why, his face slightly red from embarrassment, muttering:
"‘Hail’ ability has to take effect to have an advantage."
Aldo’s head is down, and he sees Ghiscon with a “I don’t care, I don’t know” expression.
And Hirosna is puffing her cheeks.
What is this?
However, her attention is soon drawn to the field.
The snowy wind is getting stronger, visibility gradually decreasing, while the figure of six tail continues running in the snow.
But what surprises Aldo and Hiros na is that there are not just one, but multiple figures of six tail in the snow!
"Is this... Snow Hide?"
But how can there be “Snow Hide” ability when it already has the “Hail” ability?
A Pokemon can’t have two abilities.
[Ability: Snow Hide: A Pokemon with this ability has a higher evasion rate in “Snow Day” environments.]
Hiros na squints her eyes, slowly saying:
"Seems like... Substitute?"
Substitute?
Aldo is stunned.
Watching the increasing figures of six tail.
How can it use Substitute so many times?
He reacts immediately.
"Snow?"
Is it using snow to create the shadow?
Aldo and Hiros na can’t help but to look.
What tactic is this?
Snow Day Hide and seek?
Sizz—
The golden “Thunder Wave” hits the target, emitting numerous arcs of light.
But it’s very clear.
This “target” isn’t little Chun and Haxorus.
Jing he smiles faintly.
"Six Tail, trick."
Six Tail stops blowing, eyes gleaming black.
Stacking snow is something it does regularly.
It treats it as a way to pass the time, thinking it would be scold by jing he, but jing he has always been encouraging it to play, even gradually integrating it into daily training and tactics.
"Haxorus, Dragon Whirlwind!"
"Whoo—"
The ball on Haxorus’s tail glows, and as it spins its tail, a large whirlwind quickly envelops a lot of snow, reducing visibility in the field and gradually revealing six tail’s figure.
While it seems Haxorus uses “Dragon whirlwind” to mitigate the effects of “Snow Day” to some extent.
However, the rhythm of this battle has shifted from little Chun and Haxorus to jing he and six tail.
The advantage of the weather team is the initiative, but although six tail has the “Hail” ability, it only affects itself, so the advantage isn’t significant.
Thus, the initiative of this battle is in the hands of the more powerful little Chun and Haxorus.
But as Hakuryu tried to use "Dragonwhirl" to control the weather, allowing the young Vulpix to successfully execute the "Trick" move.
---
Both sides adjusted their strategies.
"Vulpix, we'll give you a hand, Extreme Beam!"
"Ooowww—"
Vulpix's mouth slightly opened, spitting out a silver beam of light.
Ka-ka-ka-ka-ka-ka—"
The "Extreme Beam," influenced by the "Trick," suddenly condensed, making Hakuryu feel a bone-chilling cold, stiffening his body.
[Extreme beam: reduces the opponent's physical attack with a small probability]
This is the "trick" enhanced by "Extreme Beam"!
Hakuryu's body faintly showed signs of frost.
Little Chun frowned, calling out, "Hakuryu, use 'Dragon Dance' and fly up!"
"Roar!"
Hakuryu raised its head, roaring out a powerful aura from within, his body warming up while he danced through the sky.
Jing He squinted his eyes.
Fly up?
I'm scared of what you're going to do!
"Vulpix, be cute."
"Ooh—"
The sight of Vulpix's trembling, its eyes blinking pitiful, touched Hakuryu's heart.
"Hakuryu!"
But Little Chun's call made Hakuryu hesitate.
"Dragon Rush!"
A bright blue aura appeared on Hakuryu's body, then quickly covered him entirely. As the aura expanded, a fierce dragon's form faintly emerged.
From top to bottom, at this moment, Hakuryu was a fierce dragon, tearing the sky with snow and charging at the frosty Vulpix.
The momentum surged like a tide!
Jing He tightly watched the falling Hakuryu, amazed by his display of power while also feeling a bit startled.
No wonder, even if the moves are guessed, they must continue, especially if they are the "Power Break" technique passed down from Ash.
But pitiful, this Hakuryu's chemistry with Little Chun is even better than with Vulpix.
Moreover, affected by the "Extreme Beam" and "cute," Hakuryu's physical attack was significantly reduced.
So while Jing He was amazed, he wasn't panicked.
Under his indication, Ice Vulpix didn't move, lifting its head, its large crystal-like light blue eyes reflecting the approaching dragon aura.
Suddenly.
Jing He's eyes narrowed.
It’s now!
"Jump!"
"Ooow!"
The chemistry made it unnecessary for Jing He to even name the move.
Ice Vulpix's body faintly glowed with a weak silver light, then quickly leaped back, leaving a trail almost identical to itself.
Substitute!
Boom!
Like a meteor falling.
A huge boom accompanied by splashing snow, Ice Vulpix's "Substitute" disappeared in an instant.
"Oooww!"
Even the high-leaping Vulpix's body was impacted by the residual shock.
So strong!
Ice Vulpix's expression was unusually serious.
"Extreme Beam."
Jing He's voice came.
"Ooow!"
A silver, icy beam was spat from Ice Vulpix's mouth.
Ka-ka-ka—
A thick layer of ice crystals condensed on Hakuryu's body.
"Roar"
The pained Hakuryu, who immediately stopped after a small sound, due to another "Extreme Beam" falling.
It froze him solidly.
Then.
"Oooow—"
Ice Vulpix seriously spat out two more times.
Until Hakuryu was finally turned into a massive ice sculpture, he finally exhaled and his eyes flashed with fear.
So dangerous
"Vulpix, enough."
Jing He said, pulling the corner of his mouth.
The ice layer was already about two to three meters thick. If it continues, Hakuryu might not come out.
On the side of the field.
Ash and Cynthia observed with one glance.
Won?
When did the situation get firmly under Jing He's control?
Both recalled almost simultaneously and came to the same answer.
When Ice Vulpix was playing in the snow and confusing hakuryu, essentially using the "Snow Warning" and "Snow cloak" abilities, how could they lose?
