Chapter 88 Stalemate
Seeing the Gem Starfish use self-regeneration, Lin Chuan was naturally happy. After all, this improved the final battle score, but the prerequisite was that Lin Chuan must win.
With the light wall blocking the way, Lin Chuan's special attack moves were at least half useless, not to mention that the Gem Starfish had been using self-regeneration.
Lin Chuan really wanted to use an attacking move, because he had already used Dragon's Fury twice, and his attack ability value had doubled. If he used an attacking move at this time, it would have a miraculous effect.
But Kalia didn't know this, and she would definitely let him continue to use Dragon's Wrath or Dragon's Breath.
Dragon's Breath is a good choice, but Lin Chuan is not sure about the characteristics of the Gem Starfish. If it is a natural recovery characteristic, after entering the paralyzed state, as long as Zi An replaces it with Gyarados, the Gem Starfish will return to normal after entering the Poké Ball, and the effect will be very small.
However, allowing Zi'an to constantly replace elves is also a good way to consume them.
At this time, the shock wave formed by the Dragon's Wrath once again penetrated the light wall. Although the defensiveness of the light wall was constantly decreasing, it still slowed down the speed of the shock wave, causing the Gem Starfish to avoid the Dragon's Wrath again.
The light wall was indeed a very difficult move. Lin Chuan was having a headache and was thinking about changing the angle of release. However, the Gem Starfish was hiding behind the light wall and would not come out at all. He had no way to bypass the light wall.
Kalia frowned slightly, then changed her order: "Charmeleon, try using dragon breath."
Kalia had a deep impression of dragon's breath. It seemed that since the Extreme Speed Tournament, the chance of Charmeleon's dragon's breath causing paralysis had become very high.
At this moment, Kalia also wanted to try whether the dragon's breath could bring some surprises, but it didn't matter even if it couldn't.
Anyway, while the light wall exists, any special moves will be ineffective, and the Gem Starfish can use self-regeneration to restore its strength at any time.
Zi An saw that the Gem Starfish had successfully recovered from its injuries through self-regeneration, and immediately gave the order to attack: "Gem Starfish, wait for Charmeleon to release his moves first, then use the Bubble Beam."
I learned Bubble Ray by myself when I was Starfish. After evolving into Gemstarfish, I could no longer comprehend it on my own. This is usually the case for Pokémon that need to use Evolution Stones to evolve.
Lin Chuan quickly released the dragon breath. If it could paralyze the gem starfish, it would have some impact on the battle.
Zi An's order just now made Lin Chuan guess that this gem starfish might have a very rare analytical trait, because the effect of the analytical trait is to enhance the power of moves by analyzing the opponent.
Analysis takes time, and often during this process, the opponent has already released his moves, so Zi An just now asked the elf to wait for him to attack first, obviously wanting the analysis feature to work.
Then, this jewel starfish most likely does not have the ability to recover naturally. Once it falls into a paralyzed state, there is no way to recover.
At this time, the fierce breath exhaled by Lin Chuan passed through the air and went straight to the gem starfish behind the light wall. The additional effect of dragon breath has little to do with the power of dragon breath, so the light wall cannot prevent the additional effect of dragon breath.
Although the power has been weakened, when the dragon's breath falls on the gem starfish, it has almost no power, but if it can trigger the paralysis state, it can still be triggered.
After the dragon's breath hit the Gem Starfish, the Gem Starfish also completed the analysis. No one knew how it analyzed it, and then it released a bubble ray.
Bubble Ray is a ray-type move. Colorful rays of light are released from the ruby in the center of the gem starfish. They contain water energy and look like colorful bubbles, shooting towards Lin Chuan.
The analytical characteristic can increase the power of the elf's moves by 30%. The power of the bubble ray itself is not low, and with the increase in power from the analytical characteristic, Lin Chuan did not dare to withstand the bubble ray and could only dodge as much as possible.
Kaliya's dodge training was effective, and it allowed Lin Chuan to gradually develop the habit of trying to dodge moves as soon as possible in battle, rather than using moves to counter moves.
Using one move against another is like wasting an offensive opportunity to defend. It may succeed, but it may also fail.
Lin Chuan still prefers to dodge.
The foam beam came straight at him. This type of beam technique was very fast, but because of its analytical characteristics, the Gem Starfish slowed down the release time, allowing Lin Chuan to jump between stones to dodge after releasing the dragon breath.
Lin Chuan's flexible dodging caused the foam beam to deviate a lot, and it only hit a stone behind Lin Chuan. The foam beam hit the pond, and a lot of water splashed on Lin Chuan.
Having successfully avoided the bubble beam, Lin Chuan felt a little excited. He then stopped to observe the status of the Gem Starfish and found that the additional effect of the Dragon's Breath did not appear.
But this is normal. After all, the chance is not 100%, and it is impossible to succeed every time. At least Lin Chuan dodged the move, so it's not a loss.
Seeing that Charmeleon avoided the bubble beam again, Zi An got a little crazy. Couldn’t it just hit it once?
Just once and this fire dinosaur will be defeated!
At this time, the wall of light became thinner and thinner as time passed, and its defensive effect became worse and worse, and it seemed that it would disappear soon.
Although the dragon's breath failed to cause paralysis, Kalia didn't care. It was originally a matter of probability, and success or failure was possible.
"Charmeleon, dodge the Gem Starfish's moves, then release the dragon's breath."
As the wall of light was getting weaker, Kalia planned to wait for a while until the wall of light disappeared, and then let Charmeleon release Dragon's Fury. Now, let Charmeleon focus on dodging and release Dragon's Breath a few times to try her luck.
Lin Chuan understood what Kalia meant. As the light wall became thinner and thinner, its effect on weakening the power of the moves was also decreasing. By releasing the moves later, he could grasp the moment when the light wall disappeared.
"Gem Starfish, use Bubble Ray."
Zi An still let the Gem Starfish release bubble rays, which was the most proficient move that the Gem Starfish had mastered so far. Although there was also a powerful water cannon, the Gem Starfish was not very proficient in that move, and the water cannon took a long time to charge and prepare, making it easier for the opponent to avoid it.
No matter how powerful a move is, it is useless if it can't hit the target. Anyway, with the light wall and self-regeneration, the Gem Starfish is invincible for the time being.
As the bubble beam shot over again, Lin Chuan continued to dodge. The Gem Starfish had no predictive ability, and Lin Chuan did not need to worry that the Gem Starfish would predict his position in advance. He could avoid it with normal dodging.
Obviously Zi'an has not yet reached this level, and even Kalia has never been trained in this skill. This should be considered a relatively high-end technology. Ordinary elves have limited intelligence, and they can only release their moves based on their proficiency.
Time passes by little by little.
Lin Chuan's luck was a bit bad. The second dragon breath didn't even cause paralysis. This gem starfish was really unlucky.
However, although the dragon's breath did not cause paralysis, the wall of light had already begun to appear and disappear.
"Charmeleon uses Dragon's Fury!"
"Gem Starfish keep using Wall of Light!"
The orders of the two trainers sounded at the same time, both of them seized the moment when the light wall was about to disappear, one prepared to take the opportunity to attack, and the other continued to release the light wall.
However, after all, the Gem Starfish was more familiar with the time when the light wall disappeared. When it released the light wall, it was exactly the moment when the light wall completely disappeared.
There was only a gap of less than one second in between. Zi An was obviously specially trained in this aspect and he connected the light wall perfectly.
This also resulted in that although Lin Chuan's Dragon's Fury move successfully hit the Gem Starfish, it only produced half of its power, and the damage caused could not exceed its self-regeneration ability.
The battle was at a stalemate, and Kalia couldn't find a way to break the deadlock for the time being. The bubble beam of the Gem Starfish also couldn't hit the Charmeleon.
But as time goes on, the bubble ray will hit its target once in a while. The current situation is very unfavorable for Kalia, and neither she nor the Charmeleon can make any mistakes.
