c164 Qin Yun's Astonishing Discovery! Gardevoir Who Beat Up Children
Qin Yun's eyes were solemn.
Pikachu's current condition was far from ideal, raising serious doubts about its ability to defeat Misty's Starmie.
But Qin Yun was waiting.
Given his extensive battle experience, Pikachu shouldn't have expended so much stamina in its previous fights. However, this time was different.
Qin Yun had deliberately pushed Pikachu's limits not just to test its endurance, but to determine if it could execute a second Chidori within a single battle.
"Pikachu, find a chance to use Chidori."
Pikachu, with its Sharingan-like ability to read movements, excelled in combat even without Qin Yun's constant commands. Only when complex tactical coordination was required did Pikachu's relative inexperience show.
Qin Yun's strategy notes likely contained useful battle advice, but in the heat of the moment, he overlooked them.
"Pika!"
Understanding Qin Yun's intent, Pikachu nodded with determination.
"Battle, begin!"
"Starmie, use Water Gun!"
This time, Qin Yun didn't even need to give an order. Pikachu, as if predicting the attack through its heightened perception, evaded the Water Gun with ease.
"Pika!"
Pikachu's eyes were sharp, dodging Starmie's relentless attacks while preparing to unleash Chidori.
Misty, now familiar with Qin Yun's strategies, realized Pikachu's movement patterns were unpredictable, almost sinister in nature. Adapting, she called out a counter-strategy.
"Starmie, use Rapid Spin!"
Rapid Spin was a versatile move both offensive and defensive. It could not only nullify hazards like Leech Seed and entry traps but also serve as a potent counter against direct assaults.
Misty had specifically chosen Starmie for this battle, having anticipated the need for such adaptability.
Pikachu's Chidori propelled it at high speed, but in that moment, its trajectory became difficult to control.
Despite its Sharingan-like perception, Pikachu barely managed to strike Starmie at a vulnerable spot.
A crackling surge of electricity collided with Starmie mid-spin, enveloping it in a web of lightning.
"Starmie, hold on!"
The sheer force of the collision distorted Pikachu's expression. Its tiny paws pressed against Starmie's spinning form, sending electric currents surging through its opponent while enduring the force of Rapid Spin.
"Pika…!"
Qin Yun clenched his fists, concern flashing in his eyes.
At this moment, he had no choice but to trust Pikachu's resilience.
"Come on…!"
Both Pokémon clashed in a maelstrom of electricity and centrifugal force, the battlefield illuminated by arcs of lightning. Misty instinctively took a step back, wary of the overwhelming energy crackling through the air.
The electricity was powerful enough to cause actual harm if touched.
Then—
Boom!
A sudden explosion rocked the arena as both Pikachu and Starmie collapsed, unable to continue fighting.
[Defeated Starmie (Level 12). Gained 3,000 EXP.]
Qin Yun's tense expression softened as he saw the experience notification, a triumphant smile forming on his lips.
"Return, Pikachu!"
Retrieving Pikachu into its Poké Ball, Qin Yun immediately released it again.
"Pika!!"
Just as he had suspected, Pikachu emerged fully rejuvenated, its energy completely restored.
It was as if the previous battle had never happened.
"Just as I thought."
A spark of excitement flickered in Qin Yun's eyes. This confirmed his theory.
In this world, once a Pokémon was withdrawn into its Poké Ball, its stamina and condition fully recovered, no matter how exhausted it had been before.
This discovery opened up an entirely new realm of possibilities.
"Gaining experience through walking and running doesn't seem to be a viable method here," Qin Yun mused. "But battle experience directly translates into usable EXP."
"Then, what if I apply this mechanic to an intense, non-stop training regimen?"
Back in his own world, overtraining could lead to exhaustion, injury, or even reduced performance, requiring carefully monitored regimens. But here?
The limitations of reality no longer applied.
"The third match, come out, Kingdra!"
[Pokémon: Kingdra]
[Type: Water/Dragon]
[Ability: Swift Swim]
[Level: 11]
[Potential: Superior]
[Moveset: Water Gun, Bubble Beam, Hydro Pump, Dragon Pulse, Agility, Hurricane…]
"A Water/Dragon-type Kingdra?"
Qin Yun initially considered using Lurantis, but seeing Kingdra's Dragon typing, he changed his mind.
None of his current Pokémon had a natural advantage over Kingdra aside from type-effective moves.
Given Pikachu's exhaustion from the previous fights, Qin Yun decided that Gardevoir was the best choice.
"Sana!"
Gardevoir had been waiting behind Qin Yun. The moment it received his command, it Teleported directly onto the battlefield, its speed astonishing.
The audience gasped.
Gardevoir was already known as one of the most elegant Pokémon, but this one
It was a Shiny Gardevoir, even more breathtaking than usual.
Even Qin Yun, despite being used to its beauty, felt a moment of awe.
How could the audience not be captivated?
'Milotic is considered the most beautiful Pokémon?'
Qin Yun scoffed at the notion.
Compared to his Gardevoir, Milotic was hardly worth mentioning.
A proud smile appeared on his face as he invested some of his accumulated experience points into Gardevoir.
Gardevoir's level increased immediately, reaching Level 9.
Level 9 was optimal Level 10 required significantly more EXP, which Qin Yun wasn't willing to spend just yet.
"What a beautiful Gardevoir…!"
Misty, drawn to aesthetics, couldn't take her eyes off it.
"I know, right?" Qin Yun grinned. "My Gardevoir is the most beautiful in the world."
The spectators nodded in agreement. Some even murmured that they had never seen a Pokémon so stunning.
Even Kingdra seemed momentarily distracted, gazing at Gardevoir with a flicker of admiration in its eyes.
That was likely because Kingdra was female otherwise, Qin Yun was convinced it might have been outright smitten by Gardevoir.
"The battle begins!"
From the very start, Gardevoir dominated the match.
With its vast combat experience, it toyed with Kingdra effortlessly.
Teleport Shadow Spiral Energy Ball.
Shinra Tensei Banshō Ten'in.
The battlefield felt less like a competition and more like Gardevoir's personal performance stage.
It wasn't even close.
Gardevoir had effortlessly secured three victories, pushing the match into the final tiebreaker.
Were it not for the minor damage from Stealth Rock at the start, Gardevoir wouldn't have taken any hits at all.
Right now, watching Gardevoir in action almost felt unfair.
Against opponents in the Level 11 range, Gardevoir saw no difference between fighting trained Pokémon and slapping unruly children.
