Bai Ou saw the Pidgey that had lost its ability to battle, took out its Poké Ball, recalled it, then took out Swablu's Poké Ball, and said, "Go, Swablu!"
At the same time, Xia Bing said to her Vulpix, "Vulpix, once Swablu is out, use Icy Wind!"
When Swablu came out, it was hit by Vulpix's Icy Wind. Bai Ou immediately commanded, "Swablu, use Disarming Voice!"
"Mian~"
Swablu adjusted its posture and then let out a charming cry. Disarming Voice hit Vulpix, and because Vulpix didn't have much stamina left from the previous battle, it lost its ability to battle after being hit by Disarming Voice. Since Hail was still falling on the field, Swablu took damage from the Hail.
Mu Qingzhu saw Vulpix lose its ability to battle and announced, "Vulpix has lost its ability to battle. Xia Bing, please send out your next Pokémon."
Xia Bing saw the Vulpix that had lost its ability to battle, took out its Poké Ball, recalled it, then took out Lapras's Poké Ball, and said, "Go, Lapras!"
At the same time, Bai Ou immediately commanded, "Swablu, use Tailwind! Then, use Fury Attack!"
Lapras hadn't even entered the field yet, but Swablu's Tailwind was already used, just waiting for Lapras to appear.
When Lapras entered the field, Swablu immediately followed up with Fury Attack. Swablu had good luck, landing Fury Attack 5 times, which dealt significant damage to Lapras.
Xia Bing saw Lapras take a lot of damage and commanded, "Lapras, use Curse!"
At this moment, the weather on the field returned to normal.
Lapras immediately used Curse, lowering its Speed by 1 stage and raising its Attack and Defense by 1 stage.
Seeing Lapras use Curse in place, Bai Ou commanded, "Swablu, use Disarming Voice!"
Swablu's Disarming Voice hit Lapras. At this point, Lapras began to pant.
Xia Bing saw that Lapras didn't have much stamina left and commanded, "Lapras, use Life Dew!"
Lapras sprayed out mysterious water, restoring its stamina.
Bai Ou saw that Lapras had a recovery move, and then looked at Swablu, which also didn't have much stamina, so she decided to end the battle quickly. She then said, "Swablu, use Tailwind, then use Dragon Rush!"
"Mian~"
Then a fierce whirlwind swept across the field, increasing Swablu's speed. Seeing Bai Ou's Swablu use Tailwind and start to condense the form of a giant dragon, Xia Bing quickly commanded, "Lapras, use Growl, then use Water Gun!"
"Lapras~"
Lapras also quickly used Growl, lowering Swablu's Attack, and then used Water Gun to attack Swablu.
Swablu's Dragon Rush and Lapras's Water Gun collided, creating a large amount of smoke. Both sides fell backward, landing on the ground. Due to the smoke obstructing their vision, neither side was clear about the condition of their Pokémon.
"Swablu, hang in there!" Bai Ou shouted loudly.
"Lapras, don't give up!" Xia Bing also shouted loudly.
...
After the smoke cleared, both Pokémon were standing on the field, holding on, their eyes fixed on each other. Just as Xia Bing and Bai Ou were about to give commands, Swablu was the first to give out, falling down and losing its ability to battle. Seeing Swablu lose its ability to battle, Lapras also couldn't hold on, falling down and losing its ability to battle.
Mu Qingzhu then announced, "Since Swablu was the first to lose its ability to battle, Lapras wins. Therefore, the winner of this battle is Xia Bing!"
As Mu Qingzhu's words fell, warm applause, full of admiration and respect, erupted in the arena. Then, the two of them tacitly recalled their respective Pokémon into their Poké Balls. Bai Ou turned to Xia Bing, a warm smile on her face, and sincerely said, "Congratulations on your victory. I hope you have better luck next time, otherwise, it's hard to say what will happen."
"Then you'd better work hard, otherwise, I'll still be the winner next time," Xia Bing said to Bai Ou.
Just as the two were being modest with each other, Wang Han smiled and interjected, "Both students, quickly go to the self-service medical device next to you to restore your Pokémon, then come over, and I'll tell you about the mistakes you made during your battle just now."
Then Mu Qingzhu led Xia Bing and Bai Ou to the self-service medical device nearby to restore their Pokémon.
Mu Qingzhu looked at this self-service medical device, which was like the recovery device used by Joy in a Pokémon Center in games. The only difference was that in games, it could fully restore a Pokémon's stamina, while in reality, it could only restore 20% of a Pokémon's stamina.
After restoring their Pokémon's stamina, the three returned to the gymnasium to look for Teacher Wang Han. They saw Teacher Wang Han pointing out the mistakes other students had made in their recent battles and offering suggestions, as everyone's battle style is different, just as a thousand people have a thousand Hamlets in their hearts.
Seeing the three return, Wang Han told the other students to digest the details from earlier. Then she turned and walked in front of the three, saying, "I just watched your battle, and it's clear that this isn't your first time battling. Compared to other students, your adaptability in battle is indeed stronger. But you can still do better."
"For example, after Student Bai Ou had Swablu use Mist, although Mist obscured vision, you could have used Disarming Voice to attack, instead of waiting for the opponent to switch Pokémon before switching your own, wasting a chance to switch Pokémon."
"Also, Student Xia Bing, Lapras should have learned Sing, but it wasn't used in the battle. Rationally using moves to inflict abnormal statuses on the opponent during a battle is also part of achieving victory."
...
After hearing Wang Han's words, Xia Bing and Bai Ou realized that there were still many problems in their battles, and Wang Han also offered suggestions.
Mu Qingzhu knew Xia Bing and Bai Ou's shortcomings but chose not to point them out directly, hoping they would reflect on their own. Now that Wang Han had spoken candidly, it was not necessarily a bad thing. She gazed at the deep-in-thought Xia Bing and Bai Ou and softly said to Wang Han, "Teacher Wang, I want to battle you!"
"Oh, why do you want to battle me?" Wang Han raised her eyebrows slightly, asking with a tone of curiosity and challenge.
"Because I have two Pokémon that are at the critical point of evolution, perhaps an intense battle can help them complete their transformation," Mu Qingzhu confessed to Wang Han.
"I see, so you chose me as your opponent because they need to use battle to complete the evolution process," Wang Han sighed slightly, her eyes sparkling with curiosity, and said.
