Chapter 253 Battle against Sun Yan
Kalia's entry into the quarterfinals undoubtedly surprised many people. Although Charizard was very strong, it was only at this moment that they realized how strong Charizard was. It was too powerful.
Many trainers' Pokémon are not resistant to Fire-type, and now they are all afraid of encountering Kalia.
Of course, some trainers have water-type Pokémon, and even have rain-making moves, so there is no need to worry, and they may even hope to meet Kalia.
However, that kind of terrifying scorching flame is really hard to resist. It is even more shocking than the jet flame released by Chun Xiaona's crystal lamp fire spirit.
"Too strong! The sea of fire just now spread to half of the venue in an instant. It's so cool! He even mastered the oath-type moves that are difficult to master."
"The combination of Fire Oath and Grass Oath is very suitable for doubles. However, if you encounter a Pokémon with the fire-attracting attribute, Kalia's Charizard will be useless."
"You're overthinking it. Charizard doesn't have to use fire-type moves, it also has flying-type moves. I've seen Charizard use Air Slash before."
Kaliya entered the quarterfinals with a crushing advantage, which caught many viewers by surprise as they thought Kaliya would be eliminated in the round of 16. Various discussions and analyses followed.
"Forest Lizard, Charizard, come back." Kalia took back the elf. There was no expression on her face, but she was actually very happy in her heart. The special training was not in vain. Without the special training, this doubles match would not have been so easy.
However, Kalia was not at all proud. This was only the quarterfinals . There were still the semifinals and semifinals. If she could enter the finals, that would be the real final battle. Whoever won would be the champion of this doubles competition.
Needless to say, the honor of being the champion can add another highlight to Kalia's journey as a trainer, but the most important thing is the reward for the doubles match.
As a competition in Totem City, all the participants are talented trainers, so the reward for the champion cannot be some useless item.
Back in the audience, Kalia found that Yuechuanjiang was a little nervous. She looked at the big screen and found that Yuechuanjiang's opponent was an intermediate trainer, and a very powerful one.
Kaliya didn't say anything either. Yue Chuanjiang's strength enabled him to enter the top 16, which was mostly due to luck. It was normal for him to stop here. It was because Yue Chuanjiang had made a lot of progress during this period, otherwise he might not even have made it to the top 32.
Time passes.
Yue Chuanjiang finally came on the court, and the result is needless to say. If he won, it would be really weird.
However, what surprised Kaliya was that although he lost, Yue Chuanjiang seemed to be relieved and came back with a face full of fighting spirit.
"Kaliya, I understand." Yue Chuanjiang said to her seriously. His face was no longer as solemn as before the game, and his expression returned to normal.
"What do you understand?" Kalia asked when she saw the changes in Yue Chuanjiang, but she vaguely understood something.
Yue Chuanjiang relied on luck to enter the top 16, but in fact his strength was not at this level, so Yue Chuanjiang was very worried that he would suffer a crushing defeat.
However, only when he was truly defeated did Yue Chuanjiang realize that his own strength was far inferior, and he felt relieved.
It's like a person who does not have enough ability but holds an important position. He will be very worried that he will not do things well and afraid of the consequences of messing up.
But when I really failed, I discovered my shortcomings and knew how to improve myself, so I didn’t care anymore.
"I know that my strength is still far from enough, but this competition has allowed me to improve a lot and reach a higher level." Yue Chuanjiang is full of fighting spirit. People will grow.
This competition allowed him to personally experience the battle at the intermediate trainer level in advance, but he did not have the matching strength. In addition to the crushing defeat, Yue Chuanjiang realized the gap between the two and knew how to work hard.
The biggest difference between intermediate trainers and beginner trainers is the control of details and the development of Pokémon abilities and moves.
For example, Kalia's Charizard. Obviously the gap was not that big before, but now Kalia's Charizard has only evolved a month ago, but it can already defeat intermediate trainers.
In addition to the strong strength itself, the control of details in battle is also a big reason. What kind of moves to use in what situation and how to make the moves have the best effect are the details and also where the wisdom of the trainer is reflected.
And all of these come from daily training and learning.
"Kaliya, can you teach me how to train elves?" Yue Chuanjiang suddenly asked. If he could learn Kaliya's skills in training elves, he would definitely become stronger quickly.
"Teach you to train elves?" Kalia was stunned, then hesitated. To be honest, she was not a breeder, she only relied on her own experience to train elves. If she wanted to teach Yue Chuanjiang to train elves, she didn't have the ability to do so.
Shaking her head, Kalia said, "I'm sorry, I don't even know how to better train the elves myself."
Yue Chuanjiang looked disappointed, but then he smiled again: "It's okay, I have to go to Hongyu City next, so I will train on my own, but if there is any news about the New Moon Feather, let me know."
"Well, don't worry, I also want to rescue the little Zapdos. If I have any news about the Crescent Feather, I will definitely tell you." Kalia nodded.
As the two chatted, the battle to advance to the top four began. A total of eight people advanced, and except for Kalia, all of them were intermediate trainers.
The four battles among eight people will basically be over very quickly. After that it will be time for a break. The semi-finals and finals will be held in the afternoon to select the champion.
The game started, and the first match was between Kalia and her opponent was Sun Yan, the trainer whose Infernape got 141 points in the first test.
In addition to Infernape, Sun Yan also has a Slowpoke and a grass-type Meowsong Cactus. Sun Yan's advantage is that his Pokémon have strong recovery abilities. Slowpoke has Laziness and Healing Wave, which can not only heal teammates but also recover itself. At the same time, Meowsong Cactus has the water storage property, and can directly heal itself when hit by water-type moves.
When Mengge Cactus and Infernape appear at the same time, Infernape can directly ignore water-based moves because its water storage properties can directly resist any water-based moves.
Although it is not as good as the Water-drawing characteristic that can directly pull water-type moves, the effect is also quite good. Pokémon that have Water-drawing characteristics are generally water-type, and Grass-type Pokémon have the water storage characteristic, which has a huge restraint on Water-type Pokémon.
Slowpoke makes up for the fact that Grass-type is restrained by Fire-type and can resist Fire-type moves. In short, fighting with Sun Yan will be very uncomfortable. As long as he cannot be defeated in one go, the result will be that he will keep recovering. Infernape always maintains the best condition and relies on its fire-breathing characteristics to release amazing power.
Kalia came to the battlefield with a serious look on her face. Sun Yan was a strong opponent, and she didn't expect to meet him so soon. If she could defeat Sun Yan, it would mean that she had the strength to compete for the championship.
