Pokemon: Daily Intelligence Updates

The ground trembled softly, and countless earth-yellow giant rocks emerged from the ground, directly blocking the path of the Vine Army.

Bang, smoke filled the air.

The steel-like green vines pierced through the rocks, instantly cracking them, and a large number of stones scattered on the ground.

Many rocks even landed on Cradily's shimmering silver armor, making a clanging sound.

The rocks blocked and reduced the force of the vines' impact, also buying Cradily some time.

A large pit appeared where Cradily had been standing, and a small mound of earth appeared not far from the Giant Vine; it crawled out from there.

Its eyes flashed with a sharp light, ready to obey Xia Mu's commands at any moment.

At this moment, the Giant Vine also discovered Cradily's location, and the vines on its body forcibly made a turn, once again slamming towards Cradily.

The sea of vines surged in, covering the sky and earth, and it looked as if it was about to surround Cradily. Most of the audience present were sweating in their palms.

They were wondering what skills Cradily would use to resist the attack of the Vine Sea.

If another trainer were commanding this battle, they would probably be helpless, but Lu Hang's opponent was Xia Mu, so that might not be the case.

Looking back at Xia Mu's several battles, they were all comebacks against type disadvantages.

Many people felt that this time, Xia Mu would be no exception.

"As expected, it's the Vine Sea tactic."

"Using the overwhelming sea of vines to tightly bind Cradily."

"It can both restrict Cradily's movements and inflict heavy damage on Cradily."

"At this time, using moves like Mega Drain in coordination would have an exceptionally good effect."

Oddish had used this move a long time ago, so Cradily wasn't lacking ways to break it, only the best timing.

Cradily can learn a pretty wide range of moves, Ice Beam, Flamethrower, Thunderbolt, and even Surf.

Faced with the endless sea of vines, using Fire-type moves to clear a path was perfect.

In addition, you can also test how resistant the Giant Vine is to Fire-type moves.

Ordinary trainers will train their Pokémon to counter types, but everyone trains differently, and the effects achieved are also different.

So Xia Mu decisively said, "Flamethrower."

Cradily opened its mouth, and streams of fire emerged from its dark mouth, instantly forming a orange-red pillar of fire.

Cradily isn't a Fire-type Pokémon, so the power of Flamethrower is much smaller than Houndoom's.

But it was enough to deal with the aggressive Giant Vine.

The flames spread out like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, instantly turning into an orange-red sea of fire.

The Giant Vine's pupils contracted slightly, showing a hint of surprise, but there was no fear in its eyes.

As a Grass-type Pokémon, it is naturally countered by Fire-type moves, which is a difficult flaw to overcome.

Therefore, targeting the Giant Vine's fear of fire, Lu Hang also took advantage of the Giant Vine's body being covered in vines, and uniquely designed a set of methods specifically for the Giant Vine to extinguish fire.

The overwhelming sea of vines poured into the sea of fire, and the vines were instantly ignited by the raging fire.

Each vine was like a burning torch, and the surrounding air was also scorched by the flames, showing varying degrees of distortion.

However, the Giant Vine did not show a panicked expression. Instead, it intertwined the ignited vines together, and the flames on the vines gradually diminished and eventually extinguished.

A section of the vines was burned black, emitting wisps of white smoke, and a burnt smell filled the air.

As bursts of light points merged into the Giant Vine's body, the outer skin scorched by the raging fire peeled off layer by layer, scattering in the air.

Clap clap clap.

Xia Mu took the lead in applauding: "Amazing, by reducing the air needed for the fire to burn in this way, the burned vines are also quickly and rapidly regenerated through the Morning Sun move. This is really much more impressive than I imagined."

"The Giant Vine has given me a lot of inspiration, and Oddish can use these tricks as well."

The similarity between the Giant Vine and Oddish is that they both have a large number of renewable vines.

At this time, the corners of Lu Hang's mouth turned up slightly: "I'm honored to bring you inspiration."

"Next, let's see how your Cradily deals with the Giant Vine's Wood Hammer attack."

"Based on my observations just now, judging from the heavy footprints on the ground, your Cradily is much heavier than ordinary Cradily, and its movement speed must not be fast."

"Let's end it, Giant Vine, give Cradily a heavy blow."

The audience on the side watched with relish, as expected of a battle at the level of the provincial champion.

"Oh my god, the Vine Whip skill can be used like this? In that case, my Victreebel should also be able to put out the flames on its body like this," a confident audience member said, stroking his chin.

"Victreebel? Are you kidding me? How many vines does the Giant Vine have? How many vines does Victreebel have? A single Flamethrower can easily take down your Victreebel," the audience member sitting next to him rolled his eyes and retorted on the spot.

"As expected of the previous Yandong Provincial Champion, he really has some skills!" An excited audience member commented in public.

The audience members expressed their opinions, instantly bringing the atmosphere of the scene to a climax.

"Master Xia, go! ! !"

"Lu Hang, go! ! !"

Both sides' fans were shouting frantically and holding up LED sign boards high.

"Cradily, continue to use Flamethrower to block the Giant Vine's vine offensive."

Xia Mu put his hands in his pockets, and there was no sign of tension on his face.

Cradily once again spewed Flamethrower from its mouth, completely surrounding the Giant Vine.

The orange-red firelight was reflected in the Giant Vine's dark pupils, appearing particularly calm.

Lu Hang crossed his arms, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Everything was under his control, and he was controlling the overall situation like a cat catching a mouse.

Xia Mu would definitely lose this round. When Cradily ran out of tricks, it would be his hunting moment.

Even so, Lu Hang couldn't help but ridicule: "Still using Flamethrower?"

"My Giant Vine has undergone special training, this kind of trick is not difficult for the Giant Vine."

"What's more, Cradily itself is not a Fire-type Pokémon, so the power of Flamethrower won't be that great."

"Go, Giant Vine, use Wood Hammer!"

The Giant Vine intertwined the vines on its body together to form a huge Wood Hammer.

The huge vines swept directly across the ground, completely extinguishing the sea of fire, and whipped fiercely at Cradily like a whip.

"Cradily, use Light Screen to jump up, and then use Flamethrower towards the ground."

Light Screen can reduce Cradily's weight, and Flamethrower can push Cradily upwards, thereby avoiding the Wood Hammer's attack.

After all, Wood Hammer is considered a big move for Grass-type Pokémon, and this hammer could directly knock Cradily down to only a sliver of health.

Lairon leaped into the air, taking a deep breath as a sea of fire descended from the sky.

Its purpose in using Flamethrower wasn't to severely injure Grotle, but to evade Grotle's attack.

The flames poured out of Lairon's mouth like a river bursting its banks, allowing Lairon to continue ascending.

At that moment, the wooden mallet swept across, narrowly missing Lairon.

The sea of fire was once again swept away by Grotle.

The ground steamed with heat as Grotle looked at Lairon in the air with provocation.

Dodge? Where else can you dodge?

Careful, or I'll whip you!

It brandished its vines, creating rustling sounds.

The ground struck by the vine whip cracked with a 'snap' sound, leaving behind fissures.

Lairon landed firmly on the ground with a thud.

Aside from being gluttonous, it had a very steady personality. Faced with provocation, it didn't show any displeasure, but instead quietly began to build up its power.

Using Flamethrower three times had consumed some of its stamina.

"Why do I feel like Xia Mu's Lairon is just passively taking hits?" One of the fans frowned.

"Tactics, it must be tactics, I won't guess wrong, it must be tactics," another fan said hesitantly, firmly believing that Xia Mu would win.

"It seems like the type disadvantage is making it very difficult for Lairon," another fan added.

Most of the fans didn't express much confidence, clearly not optimistic about Xia Mu.

There was no other reason, Grotle's type advantage against Lairon was too significant.

"Grotle, Frenzy Plant!"

Frenzy Plant was a skill that could be used for both offense and defense.

When used for defense, it could naturally protect it perfectly, making it difficult for ordinary Pokémon to approach.

If used for offense, it would unleash a storm-like attack, leaving the opponent passively taking hits and unable to resist.

The blue vines on Grotle's body spread out, wriggling like pythons.

They scattered, wanting to completely surround Lairon.

This time, Grotle wouldn't give Lairon a chance to use Dig to escape its attacks.

"Go, Lairon, Stomping Tantrum!"

Lairon suddenly raised its forelimbs and stomped heavily on the ground.

Like a drumstick striking a drumhead heavily, a 'thud' sound echoed.

An invisible shockwave then spread out, and the endless vine whips retreated after being attacked by the shockwave.

The sea of vines that had originally surrounded Lairon tightly immediately had gaps.

The Stomping Tantrum skill also interrupted Grotle's Frenzy Plant, causing it to pause slightly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Mu quickly issued the command: "Lairon, use continuous Metal Claw!"

Lairon's claws kept extending, emitting a silvery-white light.

It suddenly slashed forward several times in succession, the silvery-white arc of light flashing like a crescent moon, and countless severed vines fell like raindrops.

Grotle was immediately in pain, and it couldn't help but take a few steps back.

The ground was covered with wriggling vines, and the severed sections were as smooth as mirrors.

Then it endured the severe pain, and a emerald-green light emitted from its body.

Emerald-green grass sprouted from the ground.

The severed ends of the vines began to wriggle, growing new vines.

Having suffered a loss, Grotle now condensed the vines into a ball again, turning it into a giant wooden mallet.

A hint of madness flashed in its eyes, this time it had to defeat Lairon here no matter what, otherwise it would lose face.

On the other side, the Qilin Society.

Under the black Arceus statue, the high-ranking members of the Qilin Society gathered again.

During this period, they had collected information on many excellent breeders and were now reporting to Li Yuan, the leader of the Qilin Society's Yangcheng branch.

"This time, we have screened several candidates."

Louise, a blonde beauty wearing a Qilin robe, handed a thick stack of documents to Li Yuan, who was resting his chin on his hand.

Li Yuan casually flipped through the stack of documents in front of him, raised his eyebrows, and signaled Louise to continue.

Louise nodded understandingly, and she projected many resumes onto the display screen.

"Leader, these are the breeders we have found who meet the requirements."

"The person at the very top best meets our requirements."

Louise picked up a laser pointer and pointed to Xia Mu's portrait, saying.

Next to the portrait was a resume about Xia Mu.

"He is a student at Shenshan High School and has also received many honors."

"In terms of research, he has researched the new forms of Eevee, and the evolution theories of Slowpoke and Slowking."

"In terms of breeding, he is the breeding consultant of the Yangcheng Long Family, and Long Xiao's old fellow's Dragonite was cured by him."

"Most importantly, he has received an invitation to the World Research Conference."

Xia Mu's resume was very bright and beautiful, and Louise secretly glanced at Li Yuan.

Sure enough, his brows were furrowed, with a slight hint of impatience.

So Louise quickly said the following: "I sent someone to investigate, and he doesn't have bodyguards protecting him in the dark."

"Compared to others, he is the best choice, and he often participates in this and that conference."

"Even if he goes missing, at least two or three days will pass before anyone notices."

"By the time others find out he's missing, this person will have already been transferred to our Devil's Island. No one will know that we did it."

After listening to Louise's words, Li Yuan's tightly furrowed brows began to relax a little.

He carefully looked at Xia Mu's resume, gently closed it, and began to close his eyes to rest.

This person is a bit of a hot potato, but the conditions are indeed very good, meeting the development needs of the Qilin Society.

If we have this person's help, it is estimated that the Qilin Society will be able to develop rapidly, at least it will not be bad in the area of Pokémon breeding.

Especially the development of Devil's Island, which is the top priority of the Qilin Society.

That place must not allow any mistakes.

Once the Qilin Society is defeated by the Heavenly Kings of the Yanhuang region, Devil's Island will be the Qilin Society's last retreat.

However, what Louise said also makes sense, that is, ordinary people will not find out about Xia Mu's disappearance, which leaves room for the Qilin Society to operate.

"Approved," Li Yuan suddenly said.

"Leave this matter to you to handle."

"I have only one requirement, do not alarm the people of the Yanhuang region. When necessary, you can shift the blame to the Dark Society."

Li Yuan's meaning was very clear, that is, to create a false impression and shift the blame to the Dark Society.

First shift the conflict to the Dark Society, so that the Heavenly Kings of the Yanhuang region and the leader of the Dark Society fight like dogs, this is Li Yuan's strategy.
