Pokémon: Start with an Admiral Crab!

A red light flashed.

"fox--!"

A Pokémon with beautiful fur and elegant posture appeared on the field.

"It's Kyuubi... Such a rare Pokémon!"

Xiao Feng and Wang Yao took out the illustrated book at the same time to scan it.

"Ding! Ninetails - the fox Pokémon! It's the evolved form of Vulpix!"

"It has golden fur and nine long tails. It is considered a symbol of longevity and can live for a thousand years!"

"The elder Ninetales possesses powerful mental powers, can emit a strange light from its bright red eyes, and freely manipulate the opponent's mind. It is a Pokémon full of mystery!"

The introduction in the illustrated book is not too detailed, but it basically reflects the characteristics of the Nine-Tailed Fox.

"A thousand-year-old Ninetales, a ten-thousand-year-old Squirtle... I think there's a saying like this in the Kanto region, right?"

Wang Yao said somewhat uncertainly.

"But can it really live for a thousand years? It's not a ghost-type Pokémon..."

Xiao Feng is not a native of Kanto, so she has never heard of this proverb.

"Hey - stop discussing irrelevant topics! Get started!"

Xia Bo shouted to Wang Yao and Xiao Feng across the battle platform.

“…Sorry, sorry!”

Wang Yao took out a Poké Ball.

"Go! Arbok!"

The first Pokémon is often used to assess the combat power of both sides, so Wang Yao naturally would not release the Giant Claw Crab directly.

"Crack!"

Arbok opened his mouth wide and stared at Ninetails.

"Aiya... the illustration says Kyuubi is good at psychic-type moves, so you sent out Arbok, right..."

Xiao Feng felt that Wang Yao was simply out of his mind...

Instead of sending out the Giant Claw Crab and Poison Jellyfish, which have attribute advantages, the poison-type Arbok is sent into battle.

"Don't worry... I only dared to do this after looking at the illustrated guide..."

Wang Yao turned around and gave Xiao Feng a confident smile.

"The cultivation site is great...but we won't show mercy!"

Xia Bo commented on Wang Yao's Arbok.

"Nine-Tails - use Fire Whirlpool!"

"Don't lose to it! Arbok - use Sludge Bomb!"

Wang Yao followed Xia Bo and issued instructions.

"fox--!"

A whirlwind of flames spewed out from the Nine-Tailed Fox's mouth, covering most of the venue.

Because of the scorching hot environment of the crater... the power of fire skills is much greater than normal!

"Crack!"

Arbok spat out a large ball of dark purple sludge and rushed towards the direction where the flames were coming from.

The moment the sludge ball came into contact with the vortex of flames, it exploded into a large piece of highly toxic sludge.

Because of the obstruction of the sludge, a gap was created in the flame vortex, and it soon could not maintain its own high-speed rotation and dissipated from the gap.

"You're quite good at it..."

Xia Bo didn't expect that Arbok could break free from the fire vortex in this way.

"So what about this move - Nine-Tails! Use your magical power."

Xia Bo waved his hand and commanded the Nine-Tailed Fox to use a powerful psychic attack.

"fox!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox gathered its spiritual power... and its pair of ruby-like eyes stared at Arbok, and a faint fluorescence began to emit from its pupils.

"coming……"

Xiao Feng looked at Ninetales's lit eyes and wondered how Wang Yao would let Arbok break the opponent's Psychic-type moves.

"Right now - use the Serpent's Stare!"

What Wang Yao is waiting for is the other party to use superpowers!

"Crack!"

Arbok stood up with its huge body, and the pattern on its expanded chest looked like a scary mask!

A terrible feeling of suffocation arises spontaneously! The Nine-Tailed Fox trembles all over... The psychic energy that had just been condensed also dissipated!

"Oops……"

Xia Bo realized that something was wrong, but Jiuwei had already fallen into the opponent's trap!

"Good opportunity! Go ahead and use the binding trick!"

Wang Yao seized this opportunity and ordered Arbok to take action immediately!

"Kyuubi! Move!"

Xia Bo didn't expect the situation to reverse so quickly...

"fox……"

The Nine-Tailed Fox felt the numbness in its body and cried out weakly.

"Crack!"

Arbok's body pounced forward like a spring and instantly wrapped around Ninetales' body. As its muscles gradually exerted force, Ninetales' strength was gradually drained away from its body.

"Final blow! Use Crunch!"

Arbok opened his mouth, and black evil energy gathered between his sharp teeth...

Awoo—Arbok bit Ninetales’ slender neck and knocked the noble golden fox down to the mortal world.

As its snake body relaxed and it lost its strength, the Nine-Tailed Fox fell to the ground in despair.

"Come back, Kyuubi!"

Xia Bo took out the Poké Ball and took back the defeated Nine-Tailed Fox.

"I didn't expect you could find out the Kyuubi's weakness with just a few words in the illustrated guide."

Xia Bo looked at the young man opposite him with some admiration.

The Nine-Tailed Fox is different from ordinary psychic Pokémon... It does not have psychic attributes. If it wants to use psychic-type moves, it must have an additional support!

What is this reliance?

——It’s [gaze]!

Moreover, when the magical power was activated, the Nine-Tailed Fox was most focused...but at this moment it happened to see the terrifying giant snake's glaring move!

It’s like a person is concentrating on looking at the screen of a mobile phone, and suddenly the image of a mischievous evil ghost pops up on the screen!

At this time, even if one does not lose the will to fight immediately, one will be frightened to the point of being unable to move for a short period of time.

Although he is the trainer of Nine-Tails, Xia Bo has never paid attention to this problem before... After all, he is an expert in fire-type Pokémon, not psychic-type Pokémon.

"I lost the first one... but the second one - how are you going to handle it!?"

Xia Bo took out the second Poké Ball.

"Go - Ironclad Tyrannosaurus!"

As the light beam released by the Poké Ball spread out, a unicorn monster familiar to Wang Yao appeared on the field.

However, compared to Wang Yao's super-large individual, the Iron-Armored Tyrannosaurus in front of him, although equally tall, was still more than half a meter shorter.

"It looks so impressive..."

Xiao Feng took out the illustrated book and scanned the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

"Ding! Tyrannosaurus Rex..."

Since Wang Yao already had one, he did not scan the information of the Tyrannosaurus Rex again.

"You're an expert at fire-type Pokémon, but why did you send out a rock-type Tyrannosaurus?"

Wang Yao complained mercilessly.

"Um... well - because the Tyrannosaurus Rex can adapt well to the volcanic environment, and its skills are also... so I..."

"Hehe...hehe..."

Xia Bo explained somewhat helplessly.

Perhaps he felt that he was in the wrong in this matter...so his tone was a little weaker.

What about adapting to the environment of the crater? That was all nonsense - he tamed the Tyrannosaurus Rex purely because of his personal preference.

Who in Kanto wouldn't want to capture a mighty and handsome Tyrannosaurus Rex? !

However, this seems to be somewhat out of the nature of the Red Lotus Gym... because his Tyrannosaurus Rex didn't even learn the fire-type moves...

...The main reason is that there hasn't been a challenger for a long time, and Xia Bo didn't expect that he would be suddenly pointed out.

"In that case... come back! Arbok!"

Wang Yao took back the overconfident Arbok and took out the second Poké Ball.

"Go! Giant Claw Crab!"

Wang Yao threw out the Poké Ball.

"Gurg!"

The giant crab appeared on the field, waving its claws proudly.

"…Did you choose to win by attributes this time?"

Xia Bo looked at the giant crab sent by Wang Yao and calmed down again.
