"Grass Trial?" Carter was indeed interested.
Naoki nodded and introduced, "It's a trial I just set up. The content mainly involves battling against Grass Type to help challengers train and increase their Pokemon's battle experience against Grass Type Pokemon."
"If you clear all the trials, you can even get the mysterious reward I've prepared!"
Increased experience against Grass Type Pokemon... mysterious reward... Carter's eyes immediately widened, and he said excitedly, "I want to participate!"
As he spoke, he took out a Poke Ball, and with a flash of white light, a Delibird appeared in front of Naoki.
"Delibird, there's a new battle! Are you ready?" Carter's eyes were filled with enthusiasm.
"Deli!" Delibird flapped its wings, responding with a determined gaze.
"Great, full of spirit," Naoki praised. "But before we start, I need to introduce the rules of the trial to you."
He led Carter to the simple battle area and waved to the Gogoat, and three Gogoat came running over.
Seeing this, Naoki continued, "The trial is divided into three stages. The first stage is a 1v1 battle, where you send out one Pokemon to battle against one Gogoat."
"The second stage is 2v2, where you can send out two Pokemon but need to battle against two Gogoat simultaneously."
"And the third stage..."
"3v3?" Carter chimed in, "I send out three Pokemon to do a team battle against these three Gogoat?"
Naoki nodded, "That's right."
He started speaking nonsense seriously, "Team battles can train a trainer's command ability and cultivate the coordination between different Pokemon, achieving the effect of training."
Hearing this, Carter clenched his fist, "I understand! Can we start now?"
Delibird, being an Ice Type, naturally has an advantage over the Grass Type Gogoat. Plus, over the past few months, he and Delibird have undergone devilish special training, completely different from before, and have already collected three Gym Badges.
For them, isn't the Grass Trial going to be easy?
Naoki nodded slightly, "Of course."
He stepped back and signaled to the Gogoat with his eyes.
The Gogoat leader understood his meaning and eagerly rushed to the battle area.
Naoki stepped forward and whispered, "Take it slow, don't knock out your opponent immediately."
After all, the main purpose of the Grass Trial is to help the Gogoat release excess energy in their bodies. If they defeat the opponent immediately, it won't achieve the desired effect.
"Meh?" Gogoat was momentarily puzzled, but quickly understood Naoki's meaning and nodded in agreement, "Meh!"
Seeing this, Naoki stepped back with satisfaction and instructed Koraidon to fetch a few cups of Berry Milk from the fridge.
These Berry Milks were handmade by him and have very effective stamina recovery effects.
Watching his actions, Carter was a bit puzzled, "Huh? Mr. Naoki, aren't you going to command the Gogoat in the battle?"
Naoki shook his head, "The Gogoat know what to do."
Then he asked, "Are you ready?"
Carter and Delibird nodded at the same time.
Naoki imitated the referee's demeanor from anime and announced, "Battle start!"
"Delibird, use Icy Wind!" Carter chose the first move.
Delibird flapped its wings, and Ice Type energy turned into icy cold air sweeping towards Gogoat.
Gogoat's eyes were filled with excitement. It lightly tapped its hind hooves, and a strong green light erupted around it.
Almost instantly, the entire grassland was enveloped, with countless illusory small grasses swaying gently as they manifested from the light.
Gogoat took the hit directly, but in the next second, a cluster of green healing light gathered from the ground and poured into its body.
"No effect?" Carter was taken aback, and then he saw Gogoat charging towards Delibird across the grass.
The pair of horns on its head kept growing larger and longer, and if they hit, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Carter quickly instructed Delibird to fly high into the air, but immediately, countless thick and long vines extended from Gogoat's body, tightly following Delibird into the sky, engaging in a tense and thrilling chase.
"Dodge! Dodge!" Carter's rhythm was completely disrupted by Gogoat, and he could only command in a fluster.
It's just unfortunate that the evasion divine technique didn't work this time.
In the chase, Gogoat's Vine Whip intertwined, transforming into an even bigger, thicker vine, and it surpassed Delibird's height in one swift move.
Then, like a colossal fallen pillar, it crashed down furiously, slamming Delibird to the ground and stirring up a cloud of dust.
Moments later, the dust settled, and Delibird laid in a big pit it had created, its eyes spinning in circles, clearly having lost its ability to battle.
Carter stared at the scene in astonishment.
What kind of move was that? So terrifying!
"Unfortunately, you failed the challenge," Naoki stepped forward and fed the Berry Milk to Delibird.
Soon, Delibird opened its eyes, and as it drank the last drop of milk, its body restored to optimal condition.
Carter rushed over, initially wanting to ask if the move Gogoat just used was the Vine Whip he knew, but he was immediately drawn to the Berry Milk.
