Paul has made sufficient preparations for today's battle with Ash.
Regardless of what other Attributes Ash's Pokémon has, the Pokémon shown previously has a Water Type, and a Flying Attribute.
Naturally, the attribute that can restrain these two attributes is Electric Type.
Electrode is the result of his careful selection and careful brewing.
Paul positioned it as an extremely powerful special attacker turret.
Use lightning to attack from a distance, and use [Electromagnetic Levitation] to evade and enhance mobility.
And it just so happens that Electrode's Species Strength is as high as 150!!
It's even faster than some mythical beasts' Species Strength!!
As for ranged attacks, it can easily dodge Rival's attacks and attack before Rival.
It can even be countered very quickly.
Just like Charizard's Flamethrower next, using [Mirror Coat] to counterattack with double the damage.
Plus this Electrode's Ability, [Detonate].
[Detonate]: When a Pokémon with this Ability is knocked down by a contact move, the attacking Pokémon will lose 1-4 of its maximum health.
Even before the [Detonation] Ability is activated, Electrode can still use his [Explosion] special move~
With the support of many parties, this Electrode will definitely become a headache for many Rivals!
But~~~
Paul's Rival is Ash, and the Pokémon on the field is Charizard.
Facing the double damage of [Mirror Coat], Ash remained calm:
"Use Fire Blast next."
Electrode's Species Strength is only 60, but he can still withstand Ash Charizard's Flamethrower.
This is certainly because Electrode's special defense has been greatly improved.
But it is also because Electrode has reduced the damage of this move Flamethrower a lot.
Then the damage that even Electro could withstand, even if it was doubled, would still be nothing to Charizard.
"Fire Roar~!!"
The next second, Charizard's body began to suffer damage from the strong purple light of [Mirror Emission].
It didn't even blink, and spit out a surging flame "天" (sky) towards Naughty Lei!
"Get out of the way, Electrode!"
Paul ordered immediately.
According to his script, Electrode was after dodging Ash's Charizard's attack.
Immediately use moves such as [Thunderbolt] or [Thunder] to counterattack.
Although the double damage of [Mirror Coat] hit Charizard, it didn't seem to be hurt at all, which surprised Paul a little.
This would make him re-evaluate Charizard's stamina before launching a counterattack...
Whoosh!!
Electrode controlled the [Electromagnetic Levitation] and brushed against the edge of [Large Character Flame Explosion], narrowly avoiding this move.
"Using a hundred thousand volts...what?!"
Paul was about to order Electrode to launch a counterattack, but his expression suddenly changed.
On Soaring in the sky, Electrode dodged the attack before he could turn around.
Right in front of it, a huge Charizard suddenly appeared!!
And the distance is so close!!!
"What a fast speed..."
This was the only thought that came into Paul's mind.
At this moment, his face also showed two very human expressions of surprise, as did Electrode in Soaring in the sky.
That expression is just like in the original story.
In the Silver Conference of the Johto Region Region, Gary faced off against Ash.
His Scizor was fighting against Charizard, and Scizor had just dodged Charizard's move Flamethrower and flew up to Soaring in the sky.
In the blink of an eye, Charizard flew over.
It was exactly the same as the shocked expressions of Gary and Scizor at that time.
At this moment, fate seemed to have played such a magical joke, reproducing the future situation at this moment.
Of course, the ending of Scizor was also reproduced~~~
"Wow!!"
Electrode was so shocked that he had no time to take any effective measures.
Charizard's Fire Blast had already sprayed on its face!!
boom!!
A violent explosion suddenly sounded in Soaring in the sky.
Just now, Electrode had already taken Charizard's Flamethrower head-on and was already unable to withstand it.
Not to mention the more powerful Fire Blast.
Boom!
Amidst the haze produced by the explosion in Soaring in the sky, there was another muffled sound.
Then~
Whoosh!!
A red and white ball fell from the inside in a Sky Drop motion and hit the Ground directly.
Bang!!
A circular hole was smashed into the ground of the stadium below.
And what is exposed at the top is a pair of swirling mosquito-repellent eyes.
"Electrode loses the ability to fight, Charizard wins!!"
This time, the referee was at a distance before he raised the flag in his hand and made the announcement.
Well, he was also afraid that the Electrode would suddenly explode and affect him.
Not only him, but also the audience around him were quite nervous.
While they were at (acbb) marveling at Charizard's speed and strength, they were also keeping an eye on the condition of the fallen Electro.
Fortunately, Paul didn't let them worry too much for too long.
"What a fast speed..."
He silently put away Electrode before he could lose consciousness and explode.
Its ability is [Detonate], and it will explode and damage the opponent only after being knocked down by a contact attack.
Electrode was hit directly by the long-range attack Fire Blast, so this Ability naturally could not be activated.
With Electrode's fall, all of Paul's original plans became empty.
Now that Electrode, who he had high hopes for, had fallen, that powerful turret could no longer be formed.
He also lacked an important and powerful offensive force.
This is a loss, and it also interferes with his subsequent plans...
"But at least I was able to find out the approximate strength of this Charizard...
Paul silently estimated in his mind.
"Strong, strong, and fast...
"Compared to the previous Kingler and Gyarados, it is definitely much stronger."
"So, if nothing unexpected happens, this Charizard should be one of his main Pokémon."
Paul had a preliminary impression in his mind, and then he twisted his hands and took out a Pokémon ball.
"In that case, it's your turn!"
Paul threw the Pokéball in his hand: "Go, silly hippo.
Bang~!
"Ah-dong."
The Slowpoke that Ash and the others had seen before, standing upright with Shellder biting from behind, also had a dazed look on his face.
"Paul's second Pokémon is actually a Hippopotamus!!"
In the speaker, the commentator was able to relax again after Electrode's threat was gone:
"This is also the Pokémon that Paul didn't bring out during the previous battle."
"It seems that it was specially prepared for this battle, specifically for the purpose of facing the contestant!!"
"The Water Type Hippopotamus is indeed a very advantageous choice against the Fire Type Charizard in terms of Attributes."
"The previous Electric Type's Electrode was aimed at Charizard's Flying Type, and this time, the stupid hippopotamus is aimed at its Fire Type. It seems that Paul is well prepared this time."
"But the Electrode just now didn't achieve a good effect. I wonder what kind of tactics Paul has arranged for this stupid hippo?!"
The commentator expressed the doubts in the minds of the audience.
Even many of Ash's die-hard fans have to admit it.
Paul was really prepared for this game.
Whether it is in terms of attributes, or the design and arrangement of Pokémon types, special moves, and tactics.
Even the previously restrained Electrode was tamed and brought into the competition.
So Paul, this silly hippo, must have his own ideas.
"Use [Trick Room]!!"
As soon as the silly hippopotamus landed, Paul gave the order decisively.
"Ah Dong~"
This silly hippopotamus also has none of the silly personality of the normal hippos.
Instead, after hearing Paul's order, he immediately took action.
The smooth and fluid movements were so smooth that some Trainers in the audience were slightly stunned.
Are Hippopotamus's movements and skills so smooth and fluent?!
Then why are the stupid hippos in their hands so dazed and executing their instructions confusedly?
I even just stood there in a daze...
"Sure enough, this Trainer named Paul is also very good at catching and training Pokémon."
Jimu, who came to watch the game in the audience, made such a judgment.
With his keen eyesight, he could naturally see the extraordinaryness of such a stupid hippopotamus.
"Such a stupid hippopotamus, plus the previous thunder Electro Ball, and his tactical design..."
There was a gleam of solemnity and seriousness in Jimu's eyes.
Not to mention Ash, even if Paul came to be his Rival.
Maybe he has to be extremely alert to deal with it.
This is also a very troublesome, tricky, powerful and scary guy!!
Even Jimu had such a reaction, not to mention the other Trainers who could see something.
When they saw the silly hippopotamus use the [Trick Room] very smoothly.
They couldn't help but sit up straight.
[Trick Room]: Speed swap between two Pokémon in the battle area.
In other words, something that was originally slow will become very fast in this space.
If the speed was originally fast, then it will become the opposite and slow down.
The biggest problem of the stupid hippopotamus, besides his stupid personality, is his slow speed.
Unlike Electrode, whose Species Strength is as high as 150.
The Species Strength of the stupid hippopotamus is only thirty points.
It can be said that speed is its biggest weakness.
But after using [Trick Room], things are different.
The speed advantage between it and Charizard was reversed in an instant.
"Use Rain Dance!"
Paul continued to give orders in a cold voice.
"Ah ...
As Slowpoke's little hands waved, the originally scorching heat Soaring in the sky was now covered by a dark cloud.
Then, a wisp of rain began to fall from the sky.
[Rain Dance]: It keeps raining, thus increasing
The power of Water Type moves is increased, while the power of Fire Type moves is reduced.
"Use Hydro Pump!"
The command to attack followed, and the stupid hippopotamus opened his mouth quickly.
Suddenly, a strong stream of water rushed out of its mouth.
"Dragon Pulse~!"
Ash followed suit and gave instructions.
"Fire Roar~!!"
Charizard violently spewed out the dragon's breath filled with golden shock waves.
Boom~!!
Dragon Breath and Hydro Pump collided with each other, and these two powerful attribute skills also burst out with extremely terrifying momentum.
And it is obvious that with the support of many parties, Ash's Charizard is still better.
The dragon's breath was clearly pressing down on the Hydro Pump, pushing it in the direction of the stupid hippopotamus.
"Stay out of the way."
Paul decisively gave up the head-on confrontation.
Through this Water Type ultimate move, he also came to another conclusion.
This Charizard is also proficient in the special moves of other Attributes.
You can use other shock wave moves to defend against Water Type and Electric Type ranged attacks.
"I remember Charizard can also use skills and moves with attributes other than Fire Type, Dragon Type, and Flying Type..."
Paul's mind was constantly recalling information about Charizard.
"Ground Type的Bulldoze,Fighting Type的Seismic Toss,Rock Type的Rock Slide,Dark Type的Crunch,Ghost Type的Shadow Claw..."
"Among them, the only ones that seem to be able to counter Hippopotamus' Psychic Type and Water Type are Shadow Claw and Electric Type's Thunder Punch.
"And these two are both close-range contact moves. Just avoid being approached by Charizard..."
Paul made a silent judgment.
In his opinion, as long as he avoided these two skills, the stupid hippopotamus could rely on his strong defense and physical strength.
Slowly, Charizard can be worn down to death.
The stupid hippo has only one weakness, and that is speed.
Now with the help of [Trick Room], the speed difference has been made up, so it seems very easy.
RTU...
However, Paul overlooked that Charizard also has an Attribute move skill that can restrain Hippopotamus.
And it is Mega's classic ultimate move.
"Is the collection almost complete? Where's Eruption?"
After seeing Dragon Pulse pushing Hydro Pump away and gaining the upper hand again, Ash suddenly smiled.
"Fire Roar~"
Charizard let out a long roar towards the sky, and then.
Its shoulders, or rather its entire back, were shining with a dazzling light that was as bright as the sun.
"What is this…?!!"
Many Trainers in the stands couldn't help but stand up.
They are all Trainers who are good at a certain Attribute and are very familiar with the pattern of this trick!!
Each of them stared at the field with a look of shock on their faces.
"Go, Charizard!!"
Ash followed and shouted: "Use Solar Beam!!"
[Sunshine Flame], one of Grass Type's ultimate moves.
In previous generations, it was the ultimate move in Grass Type, no less than the Destruction Death Ray!!
As for Charizard, the only Grass Type move he can learn is this one move~!!
Whoosh!!
A brilliant white light shock wave came out from Charizard's mouth.
Carrying the extremely strong destructive and annihilating power of Grass Type, it blasted straight towards the stupid hippopotamus below.
"Get out of the way!!"
Paul's face suddenly changed.
He really didn't expect that Ash's Charizard still had this trick up his sleeve!!
He also wanted to make the stupid hippo retreat in time.
However, even in this [Trick Room].
This ultimate Grass Type move, which contains infinite power, has been accumulated for several rounds.
Enough to overcome the limitations of this [Trick Room].
Before the stupid hippo could react.
boom!!
The violent explosion directly engulfed half of the area below.
Charizard's extremely powerful and terrifying destructive power was fully demonstrated at this moment!!
The violent smoke and dust generated directly filled the entire stadium.
It even began to blow towards the surrounding audience seats and the left and right sides of the fighting stage.
Even Paul couldn't help but turn his head away to resist the blowing dust.
"What a powerful sun blaze!!"
In the broadcast, the commentator's exclamation came at the right time:
"As expected of Charizard, the powerful moves he unleashed were so powerful that even this Stadium opponent couldn't withstand it."
"Besides, it's a Fire Type and a Flying Type Pokémon, both of which are restrained against Grass Types, but it actually uses such a Grass Type's ultimate move!"
