Afternoon.
Rock and Water Battlefield.
The ten-sided Battle Arena was divided by a river, with only one path leading to the other side.
The battle between Nanjiang University High School Affiliated and Peaceful City First High School attracted many spectators, and the popularity was bursting.
One is a national key school, and the other is an undefeated Dark Horse. Who will win when they meet?
Moreover, the first and second place on the new talent strength list are in these two schools respectively. There is a lot to see.
"South University Affiliated High School, victory is certain!"
"Pingcheng, Cheering, Eevee is invincible!"
Before the match even started, the students from both sides were shouting wildly, with constant Cheering.
"The opponent's lineup has been confirmed. There's a Haunter, and also a Houndoom... a Flareon... a Ralts... a Zubat."
After the starting players from both schools were announced, Peaceful City First High School's side looked grim, feeling a stomachache just listening to it.
"Let's take care of that Ralts first. According to the information we've gathered, although that Ralts has Grasp of Psychic Power, its defense is very weak, and it can't fight for long. But you need to be careful of its Teleport."
"Also, that Zubat is also a breakthrough point. Don't let its Supersonic interfere with you during the battle."
"Understood."
After Director Wu finished speaking, the five players from Peaceful City First High School who needed to play, Fang Yuan, Lin Jing, Liu Le, Yue Chenfei, and Zhang Huanyu, nodded.
...
Match time arrived.
The players from both sides began to enter the field, waiting for the Referee's instructions.
Fang Yuan stared at the opponent's five Pokémon, feeling heavy.
Because Fang Yuan had already realized that even if Eevee tried its best, the hope of winning this battle was slim.
In a gauntlet match, Eevee could even defeat four Pokémon in a row, but when the battle was conducted in the form of a Team Battle, the situation was quite bad.
"Do your best."
Fang Yuan glanced at Eevee and took a deep breath.
As the captains on both sides signaled, the Referee directly announced the start of the match.
"Cloyster, Water Pulse!!" The Cloyster, protected by double shells, began to reveal its mouth, spewing out a torrent of Water.
"Growlithe, Odor Sleuth." The Growlithe with orange and black mane suddenly moved its nose.
The Houndoom and Flareon of South University Affiliated High School initially sprayed Flamethrower at each other, the Fire waves rolling, wanting to strengthen themselves through each other's power.
As for Haunter, it concealed its figure.
The Houndoom and Flareon were standing very close, but Peaceful City First High School's positioning was also very targeted, letting Zhang Huanyu, who had a Water-type Pokémon, be responsible for stopping them, but the Water Pulse was instantly evaporated by the Fire, the power difference was too great!! "Eevee..." Eevee had a headache. If it were the previous match, it would have rushed out bravely, but this time, the opponent had a Ralts with Teleport, which could cross the battlefield at any time to sneak attack Pokémon other than itself. How should it lead? What's more, there was also a Haunter who was completely unpredictable and good at illusions lurking on the side, Eevee's actions were even more restricted.
"Awoo!!"
"Bui?!"
The next moment, Growlithe noticed something was wrong. Its nose, acting as a psychic medium, received a notification, and Eevee was stunned.
As a Police Dog... Lin Jing's Growlithe had a very sensitive nose. Even if the Battle Arena was large, it could clearly distinguish the enemy's position.
The one launching the sneak attack was Ralts. After a flash of white light,
South University Affiliated High School's Ralts appeared on the other side of the battlefield, which was the Peaceful City First High School side, next to Cloyster.
Teleport!
Fang Yuan and the others' worries came true.
"Quickly interrupt it!!" The audience sitting above could see more clearly. Looking down from a high place, they had a complete view of the overall situation.
Upon discovering that Ralts, who looked like a green maiden, had suddenly Teleported next to Cloyster, and was gathering Energy with both hands, planning to release Magical Leaf, they all shouted anxiously.
Whoosh!!
Eevee had anticipated this and immediately condensed a Shadow Ball. The dark purple Energy quickly took shape and was flung out rapidly.
But at the same time, Ralts disappeared again, not choosing to attack. The Shadow Ball grazed past its afterimage.
"What does it mean?" Fang Yuan frowned.
Ralts didn't seem to really want to attack, it just wanted to scare them...
...
Fang Yuan had experienced Teleport before.
This was a very tricky move, especially in such a chaotic Team Battle, making it really hard to defend against.
This was also one of the reasons why he felt South University Affiliated High School was difficult to deal with.
Before the Peaceful City First High School team could react, Nanjiang University High School Affiliated launched a new round of attacks. Zubat released Supersonic from a distance to cover the two Fire-type Pokémon, while to prevent the opponent from strengthening through Flash Fire, Murkrow and Snorlax also quickly went to support Cloyster.
But at this moment, Haunter arrived unnoticed. The speed at which it crossed the battlefield was only slightly slower than Ralts' Teleport.
Having been attracted by Ralts just now, Growlithe and Eevee didn't notice its movements immediately.
However, it wasn't too late now, but unfortunately, Snorlax and Murkrow, these two dullards, could only slack off. Their movements couldn't keep up with their reactions, and their reactions couldn't keep up with the battle. They didn't help either side when they passed by.
Eevee still reacted quickly.
As it turned around, it saw Haunter less than a meter away from itself in its peripheral vision.
The next second, Eevee's Shadow Ball smashed towards Haunter. How could Haunter dodge at such a short distance? "Iheeheeheeheehee~"
Haunter didn't intend to dodge.
"Crap!!"
In the Guest Seats for Professional Trainers, Zhuang Xin suddenly stood up. The originally calm her revealed a solemn expression as she looked at Ralts, who had suddenly moved away.
After moving away just now, Ralts began to gather special Energy, letting its teammates attract attention in its place.
The Psychic Power formed by its Psychic Power and the Curse Power formed by Ghost-type Energy intertwined, slowly forming a New Move.
From the start, this was the tactic South University Affiliated High School had arranged.
In that instant when Eevee launched the Shadow Ball, Haunter disappeared, and Ralts took its place.
Haunter used the Wonder Room move, which was very similar to Teleport, allowing it to swap positions with a teammate.
T-1 Tactics.
Giving Ralts ample time to accumulate the Energy needed for the Destiny Bond move.
Haunter attracted Eevee, prompting it to attack, but it was actually luring Eevee to make a move.
The moment Ralts completed Destiny Bond, Haunter would use Wonder Room to make Ralts its shield!
Eevee became bewildered.
The next moment, a green flash appeared before its eyes, and the Shadow Ball accurately hit Ralts.
The massive Energy exploded, and Ralts sacrificed all of its power, turning it into Curse Power. The curse, like a shadow, instantly wrapped around Eevee's entire body.
And this was the first time Eevee had encountered such a move.
The Curse Power came too fast, and it was too close. Eevee didn't have time to dodge at all.
In that instant, Eevee felt as if night had fallen, and pale moonlight covered the earth, giving rise to countless eerie shadows. From afar, it was filled with the aura of death, turning into palms reaching out towards it.
"Attack!"
Jiang Ran from South University Affiliated High School immediately gave the order after seeing the tactic succeed.
"That Eevee has strong Psychic Power, Destiny Bond might not necessarily make it lose its ability to fight."
Destiny Bond, like Explosion and other moves, has a very strong effect, but it doesn't mean that it's like in the games, where as long as you use it, you can trade one for one.
Otherwise, a team of Pokémon that know Destiny Bond could challenge legendary creatures.
But this does not affect the power of the Curse Power. Ralts sacrificed itself, preparing the Destiny Bond move for a long time, posing a great threat to Eevee.
On the battlefield, Eevee painfully resisted.
But the Curse Power was too strong. If Eevee's Psychic Power wasn't strong, it would definitely be instantly eroded by the Curse Power and lose its ability to fight like Ralts.
