Pokémon: The Climb

Qianli wasn't really angry, he just wanted Yang Yan not to be too careless.

And Yang Yan also knew that Qianli meant well, so he didn't argue too much. In addition, the second game was about to start, and everyone's focus shifted to that, so the topic was stopped soon.

Having said that, Yang Yan himself did not expect that in the first round, especially the first game, he would encounter a trainer specializing in the super type, otherwise he would not have used a rock + ground + steel team. After all, this lineup has quite a few weaknesses.

But Yang Yan is not really that reckless. In fact, he has a lizard king with him as a backup.

When the situation got really bad, of course he didn't care about hiding his strength.

Fortunately, it did not evolve into that situation in the end.

……

In the next few days, Yang Yan, like everyone else, stayed in the player area watching the game all day.

It's not just a battle between these people.

In the competition between the quasi-king group and the elite group, he would also take time every day to quickly review the battle the day before yesterday.

The main purpose, of course, is to become familiar with Galar’s ​​various special Pokémon and unseen skills as quickly as possible through the battle videos.

By the way, among the three groups, only Yangyan got off to a good start.

The other two groups who were the first to fight were defeated.

The reason for the failure was naturally due to too many unexpected circumstances.

Of course, everyone who plays in the first round will basically enjoy similar treatment. The earlier you go to battle, the more so.

Fortunately, they were not the only ones who suffered from lack of information. The trainers in Galar also faced Pokémon they were unfamiliar with.

After all, according to scale, the Pokémon League has many more unique Pokémon in each region than in Galar.

So as more and more people realize this and readjust the team configuration, it is the Galar trainers' turn to learn more and more.

During this period, Yang Yan saw the appearance of the Super Max again and again. Basically, all the trainers who participated in Galar would use it, so it was easy to collect a control group. After comparison, he roughly clarified part of the situation.

For example, it seems that only some Pokémon can use the so-called Megamax. When other Pokémon become larger, they only increase in size without changing their appearance.

In addition, whether it is Gigantamax or ordinary Gigantamax, the Pokémon seems to only have the power of 3 moves, and will return to its original state after 3 attacks.

Finally, after becoming Gigantamax, except for some Pokémon that can reach Gigantamax, the skills of other Pokémon should be unified into a certain move based on their attributes.

These moves have a large strike range and have additional effects.

Although I still don't understand how to use Dynamax, after analyzing the above three points, at least I can be more calm on the field.

Of course, how could the trainers of the Pokémon League be willing to be beaten in vain? Many of them, like Yang Yan, responded with Mega Evolution. The Alola trainers in the other two groups were not to be outdone and used Z-moves.

So overall, the situation on the Galar side is actually not good.

Five days have passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, more than half a day has passed since the second round of competition.

It is said to be the first round, but it is only calculated based on the Pokémon League. After all, the number of people on their side was less than half of Galar's.

Everyone in the Pokémon League has finished playing a game, and most of the people in Galar are still sitting on the bench.

Suddenly, Yang Yan's profile picture appeared on the large scrolling screen.

"From the second round to now, the average strength of the trainers participating in Galar is average. There should be no strong enough manpower to use, but it is best not to be careless."

Before going on stage, Qianli instructed.

"Don't worry, teacher, I will give Galar a big surprise this time!" Yang Yan said with a meaningful smile.

On his second appearance, Yang Yan adapted a lot.

This time his opponent was a trainer named Hisoka.

He was still wearing the same trainer's clothes, and he looked ordinary and almost featureless.

Judging from his energy level, he doesn't seem to be too high, giving people the feeling of a little lack of confidence.

Mr. Hisoka had never played in the first round, so Yangyan didn't know what type of Pokémon he was using.

Therefore, when choosing the first one, he had no reference target, so the Pokémon he chose to send out was...

"Come out, Nidoking!"

"Lotte Kappa, prepare to fight!"

At the same time, Hisoka also released his Pokémon.

Yang Yan raised the corner of his mouth, "Is it water-based? It's really... as expected!"

Most of the Pokémon in the team I used in the last game were weak to water.

Over the past few days, there have been too many situations where trainers in the Pokémon League have been at a disadvantage in terms of attributes, and it was already expected that they would be targeted.

In other words, this is what he expected.

Although the games are played one by one, the pros and cons of each game are planned, prepared, and even decided earlier...

"Nidoking, rush over!"

The battle began, and Yang Yan gave the order to attack without hesitation.

"Lotte Kappa, please rain!"

It's a familiar tactic again, and it's a familiar opening.

Yang Yan didn't let Nidoking stop him, or in other words, he didn't have the chance to stop him. Because Lotte Kappa performs Rainmaking very quickly and performs it while moving, it is difficult to stop it.

The raindrops fell, more and more, faster and faster.

In the blink of an eye, it was already raining heavily.

The corners of his eyes were wet and his vision began to blur, but Yang Yan was not moved at all. Because Nidoking himself knows how to fight.

Lotte Kappa is not a rare Pokémon. He has had countless duels before, and Nidoking also knows how to deal with Lotte Kappa, which swims freely.

Apart from letting Nido King rush forward to prepare for battle, Yang Yan did not give any instructions to Nido King, nor was he prepared to interfere with any of Nido King's actions.

"It's a pity that Nidoking's poison attribute cannot be used, otherwise..." Yang Yan suddenly sighed slightly.

Because of the forced nature, skills that add poisoning effects lose the ability to poison the opponent. Nidoking, on the other hand, was originally a king-level person who broke through through the poison attribute, but he was unable to display much of his poison ability. I have to say, this is a great irony.

Maybe this is called giving and receiving.

Because of this, Nidoking is strong, but his strength is limited. At least that's the case when it comes to one-on-one combat.

In the blink of an eye, rainwater accumulated all over the ground, and because of Nidoking's actions, the entire field turned into a swamp just like the first scene.

But Lotte Kappa has no superpowers, so he can only watch as the space suitable for movement becomes smaller and smaller, and is eventually forced to face off against Nidoking.

In a head-to-head fight, Lotte Kappa was no match for Nidoking. He quickly fell under the impact of the insect-type ultimate move - Super Horn Strike.

In the second round, Yang Yan successfully won the first game.
