Chapter 313: Battle against opposite attributes
The practical assessment has begun.
As the last round of the intermediate assessment, the practical assessment is the trainer's favorite and most important part.
To evaluate the excellence of a trainer, one simply looks at the potential of the Pokémon he trains, and when it comes to reflecting the potential of a Pokémon, its combat effectiveness naturally cannot be ignored.
Therefore, actual combat has become the main way to test the strength of Pokémon. Judging the strength of Pokémon through combat is also a disguised reflection of the strength of the trainer.
No matter how great a trainer's theoretical knowledge is, if his Pokémon are not strong enough, no one will recognize him because he will not be able to cultivate powerful Pokémon.
No one knew the specific content of this practical assessment, but when everyone followed Mandia to the assessment site, Mandia explained it.
The content of the actual combat assessment is that the trainer has to send out three Pokémon to fight against three powerful Pokémon respectively, and win two out of three games. After winning twice, the trainer is considered to have passed the level.
For this assessment, the alliance prepared Pokémon of eighteen attributes, all of which were Pokémon from intermediate trainers.
At the same time, the elves being tested must have opposite attributes when fighting against these single-attribute elves.
Fire-type elves need to fight against water-type or rock-type elves. This is an option, as the attributes must be reversed anyway.
According to Mandia, a true trainer cannot just know how to restrain relationships. Sometimes the battles between Pokémon will not go as you wish.
Many times, the opponent's Pokémon may restrain your Pokémon. This is the time when the trainer's ability is truly demonstrated, and it is also a test of the Pokémon's true strength.
It is impossible for a trainer to always have attribute advantages . Sometimes there will inevitably be times when he has to fight but is at an attribute disadvantage.
This actual combat assessment tests whether the elves can rely on their own strength to eliminate the disadvantages of the attributes and win when facing elves with restraining attributes.
The two most difficult points in this practical assessment are: one is the reverse attribute, and the other is that it will not change in previous years. During the battle, the trainer cannot intervene and the Pokémon must complete the battle alone.
Trainers cannot intervene, this has always been the case. After all, actual combat tests the strength of the Pokémon, not the trainer's command ability.
This is actually also a preparation for becoming an advanced trainer, because many of the Pokémon of advanced trainers have autonomy, and Pokémon with autonomy are the Pokémon that truly have potential.
To be honest, as the strength of the Pokémon increases, the role of the trainer in the actual battle will become smaller and smaller. Of course, it is just a battle, because the trainer often cannot keep up with the battle rhythm of the Pokémon.
Pokémon possess superhuman strength and speed. Once a certain level is reached, the trainer's command role in battle will decrease in percentage. Although it will not return to zero, it will be infinitely weakened.
Of course, if they are superstar or champion-level trainers, that is another matter, as they have already surpassed the scope of ordinary people.
space.
The Poké Balls containing Pokémons of eighteen different attributes were placed on the ground, and ten trainers stood in front with serious faces.
Every intermediate trainer has at least three main Pokémon, which is one of the minimum standards to become an intermediate trainer, so it is two out of three.
Soon, as Mandia spoke, the first trainer began the assessment and chose the first Pokémon with opposite attributes based on his own Pokémon's attributes.
The elves preparing for the assessment naturally could not be weak, but when seeing the elves appearing, even Kalia felt a little dignified.
Although the elves in the test all have a single attribute, they are all recognized as powerful final evolutionary forms. In this case, it is still very difficult to win a battle against their attributes.
Many trainers turned pale. They had finally come here, and it would be a shame if they failed because of this.
The first trainer to start the assessment was a little nervous and sent out his own Pokémon first. Because it was a best-of-three contest, he also sent out his strongest Pokémon.
A grass-type Tortoise, the final evolution of the standard Alliance's initial Pokémon, with both ground and grass attributes.
Squirtle has multiple weaknesses, so this trainer naturally cannot choose an attribute that has four times the resistance. That would be tantamount to giving up directly. After all, it would be absolutely hellish to win when facing four times the resistance.
“I choose fire.”
In the end, the trainer chose to fight against Fire-type Pokémon, which was obviously a wise choice, because even though he had to face Fire-type Pokémon , he had double the restraint.
However, the Tutai Turtle itself has the ground element and can restrain the fire element, and this does not violate the assessment.
In the first battle, the trainer won easily. The opponent he faced was a Fire-type Pokémon. Stoat blocked the attack once with its good defensive ability, and then defeated the opponent with ground-type moves.
However, in the second battle, the trainer got into a big dilemma, simply because he sent out an Electric-type Pokémon, and there was only one Pokémon that could restrain the Electric-type, and that was the Ground-type.
It is well known that Electric-type moves are ineffective against Ground-type Pokémon, unless that Ground-type Pokémon leaves the ground.
In the second battle, the trainer was defeated and only had one chance left. He could only pass if he won. If he lost, he would have to wait for the next intermediate assessment.
"Charizard's biggest weakness is Rock-type, so that's definitely not an option. So, wear Water-type or Electric-type, and you should be able to win."
As Kalia watched, she began to think about how to choose the elf to fight against.
She is not very worried about Charizard. As long as she doesn't choose a rock-type Pokémon, there shouldn't be any problem.
What I am most worried about are the Lizard King and Nine-Tailed Fox. The Lizard King has multiple weaknesses such as flying, fire, and ice, and it has a single attribute and limited moves.
No matter which attribute it is, it seems difficult to deal with and there are certain risks.
"For Charizard, choose Water. For Lizard King, choose Ice. For Nine-Tailed Fox, choose Water." Kaliya made a decision. The reason she did so was naturally because it was the best choice.
Nine-Tailed Fox has the sunshine attribute, so when facing water-type elves, the attribute gap will be eliminated. Lizard King has fighting moves, which have a restraining effect against ice-type elves, making it easier to deal with.
Facing the flying or fire system is not as good as facing the ice system. Of course, even if she made the decision, Kalia was still a little worried.
After all, the Pokémon prepared for the assessment are not weak. Kalia herself knows that, except for Charizard, the other Pokémon are actually still within the normal range. If they accidentally fail, they will be doomed.
However, compared to the others, at least she can guarantee that Charizard will win, so as long as Lizard King and Nine-Tail win once, it will be fine.
