My Name of the Spirit Lucario

Chapter 723 The Strongest Battle, 1

The Dragonite on the opposite side was grimacing in pain, while his own Charizard was lying on the ground with its arms and legs spread out, snoring loudly, and even snoring loudly because of excessive fatigue. For a moment, Asuka didn't know how to evaluate it.

Although it seems that Charizard's final attack did not leave Dragonite with serious injuries, there is at least one good news, that is, the initial tension of the companions has disappeared.

It seems that Rio's strategy of starting the game to stabilize the morale of the team has achieved very good results.

After Asuka Teru retrieved Charizard, the countdown sound sounded again.

"If it's Dragonite..."

This time Asuka made a decision quickly.

That is to send out Gardevoir which has fairy attributes.

……

The fairy attribute is the latest attribute to be discovered among all the attributes that can be discovered in the world. Once upon a time, elves such as Gardevoir were once thought to have only a single attribute, that is, the psychic attribute.

This is mainly because the energy radiance of fairy attributes is highly similar to the energy radiance of super power attributes.

However, with the development of science and technology, the machines used to study Pokémon have also undergone several major innovations, and the observation and research of attribute energy has been further improved. As a result, it was discovered that when Pokémon such as Gardevoir use moves with different "psychic" attributes, the energy light emitted actually has slight differences.

Not only that, some elves classified as general attributes, such as Picosi and Blue, do not have the ability to display psychic power, but they have also been found to be able to use this "super" move. In addition, many new elves such as Hua Beibei and Fat Tianni have been discovered one after another. These elves with common characteristics cannot be simply classified with general attributes. Therefore, the academic community has come up with a new name for this special attribute.

Considering that most elves with this new attribute are cute and lovely, just like the fairies in various fairy tales, some scholars hit on the idea and named this new attribute "fairy". As soon as the name came out, it was immediately welcomed and recognized by the public because of its apt description, and thus the 18th attribute "fairy" was born.

As for those Pokémon that were once normal-type Pokémon, they were also re-classified. For example, Gardevoir was changed from a single psychic-type attribute to a dual attribute of psychic-type and fairy-type.

However, compared to the fact that the Ice attribute can restrain the Dragon attribute, what has not yet been discovered is that the Fairy attribute can also be the nemesis of the Dragon attribute, which was once considered the attribute overlord.

Many people find it difficult to imagine that a petite and cute fairy-type Pokémon could beat a domineering dragon-type Pokémon into a panic.

Leo has an interesting reasoning for this: according to the Chinese theory he came across in his previous life, "dragons are naturally lustful", so it is reasonable that they cannot resist the charm of "fairies". And why the steel type can restrain the fairy type is probably because the unromantic steel "spirit" can ignore the existence of "fairies".

Of course, this kind of reasoning is just for fun and should not be taken seriously.

……

Therefore, Asuka's decision to send Gardevoir to fight Dragonite was correct no matter how you look at it.

Unless Red chooses to replace Dragonite.

What was beyond Asuka's expectations was that Chihong actually did so.

"Kailong, come back."

At this moment, two inconsistent countdown sounds appeared on the field.

This move forced Asuka Teru, who already had Gardevoir's Poké Ball in his hand, to stop.

"It is not a wise move to let a Pokémon in poor condition face an opponent in perfect condition."

Red didn't let Charizard go just now, that was because the latter was too proud to leave the stage, so Red followed Charizard's willfulness. However, his other Pokémon didn't have so many ideas, and they all obeyed the trainer's instructions honestly.

At this stage, the Charizards of both sides have withdrawn, and at the same time, one of their Pokémon has been injured to varying degrees. The battle situation seems to have returned to the starting point.

"What spirit will he use next?"

Asuka was guessing, but she didn't have much time to think.

"Never mind, let's just stay the same in the face of change."

Just when Asuka Teru was about to send out Gardevoir as planned, suddenly, the Poké Ball in his hand shook.

Lulu conveyed a message to Asuka.

"(Telepathic communication) You said the Pokémon on the other side is a Psychic-type? ... I understand."

As the saying goes, like attracts like, elves with the same attributes will have a sense of each other.

According to Lulu's information, the one that Red can send out should be Alakazam.

"In that case..."

Asuka Teru replaced the Poké Ball with extremely fast hand speed, and summoned the Pokémon just as the last "one" sounded.

"Soso, attack!"

"Hu Di."

Zoroark and Alakazam appeared at almost the same time.

……

If we were to ask who would suffer the most in this battle where all special abilities except for his original abilities were sealed and the battle was purely about fighting, then it would undoubtedly be Zoroark.

Without the unique talent of "changing form", Zoroark can only rely on his most original ability, which is the "modern phantom form" with evil attributes. For Zoroark, who has always relied on switching different forms to flexibly fight against the enemy, not only most of the moves he has learned cannot be used because he does not have the corresponding attribute energy, but he is also unable to use the tactics he usually practices with the trainer. The combination of several disadvantages is no less than reducing his strength by nearly half.

Although the talent of "changing form" comes from an evil and cruel elf experiment, fortune and misfortune are interdependent. Zoroark, who survived the disaster, also gained this outstanding ability. Moreover, because of this talent, he was originally ordinary and was able to stand on the same level with those outstanding partners around him.

After all, the Zoroark elf race is just an ordinary one among many elves. Although it has good racial values, the limitation of a single attribute will still limit the upper limit of the strength of this kind of elf.

It’s a pity that the talent he had always relied on is no longer available in this battle.

Among the six partners, Zoroark's strength should have declined the most. I thought Asuka Teru would also take this factor into consideration and might not send him out. However, what Zoroark didn't expect was that after the strongest Lucario and Charizard, it would be his turn to step onto the stage to fight against the strongest opponent.

"Come on, Soso."

Asuhi Teru encouraged Zoroark.

Even though Zoroark has lost the ability to change his form, Asuka still believes in his spirit.

Moreover, when facing Psychic-type Pokémon, the chances of Dark-type Pokémon winning will be much higher due to the attribute restraint.

……

Zoroark shook the sideburns behind his head and aimed his dark red claws at the Alakazam in front of him.

The terrifying super-power surrounding the other person did not frighten him, but instead made him feel a little excited.

“…I really want to…I really want to destroy it…”

Twisted malice gradually emerged from Zoroark, and a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Just when Zoroark was ready for battle and was about to start unleashing his malice, something unexpected happened.

"Dark-type Pokémon? Alakazam, you are indeed difficult to deal with."

Red pressed the button of the Poké Ball again without hesitation, intending to take Alakazam back.

At this time, not only Zoroark, but even Asuka was a little confused.

"No... We've already prepared everything, why did you suddenly change the elves?"

"It is not a wise move to fight against the reverse attribute, especially when the Psychic attribute is against the Dark attribute that completely restrains it."

Although a character based on Akane often acts as a master of reverse attribute battles, Akane herself is a firm believer in attribute restraint, the most basic combat theory. Therefore, even if it would leave Asuka and Zoroark with a chance to attack, she chose to decisively recall Alakazam, who was at a disadvantage in the restraint relationship.

As mentioned before, there is a short delay in recycling the wizard.

In this case, Asuka Zhao will not miss this opportunity.

"Soso, [secret attack on vital points]."

Zoroark turned into a black mist and lurked around the field.

Even though Alakazam was a very calm Pokémon, he couldn't help but be slightly distracted by the black mist swaying back and forth in front of him.

Suddenly, a strong sense of malice appeared behind Alakazam on the right.

Before Hu Di could react, he saw a dark red claw with a strange arc of light silently grabbing towards the former's waist.

The waist, as the central support of human creatures, has always been a relatively vulnerable part.

The evil move [Sneak Attack] attacks the opponent's weak point.

Several bloody scratches were left on Hu Di's body.

Alakazam was also very tough. Facing the pain in his body and the malicious corrosion, he didn't say a word. He just glared at Zoroark, knocked the spoons in his hands against each other, and then was taken back into the Poké Ball by the recall ray.
