Chapter 547 The Sinnoh Journey (2)
"Um... I'm not very good at saying this, Miss Rebecca, but I'm a fan of yours!"
Ami still seems to be a rather shy girl.
Perhaps it's just her nature.
"...If I defeat you here, would that count as a gym battle?"
Rebecca stopped pretending and laid her cards on the table.
"Um...you probably don't know this yet, do you?"
Ami whispered something in her ear.
"Actually, since Chairman Sakaki has already defeated Mr. Transition, therefore..."
Good guy.
It seems that Sakaki had already paved the way for her.
This was the last league that Rebecca would officially challenge in the Sinnoh region!
It's said that the Alola League was just established recently.
She is now a nominal 8-time champion!
It can be considered a victory without a fight!
Since we've already come this far...
Rebecca was carefully observing Ami.
The girl's slender figure, coupled with her fair skin, and her shy, demure demeanor, made her appear demure.
Tsk tsk... Why are you blushing like a teapot?
I have to say, she's so cute...
"Um... if you don't mind, please accept this..."
Ok?
Rebecca recognized the badge immediately.
But what are the pastries in this gift box?
"This is a specialty of the town of Kaji in the city of Johto, called Angry Buns. They are very delicious, and if you give them to a Pokémon, they can also cure abnormal statuses."
Rebecca accepted it without hesitation.
She hasn't had lunch yet.
In return, Rebecca sent a signed photobook.
After saying goodbye to Ami, we continued on to the location of the next gym.
……
Curtain City.
The city is somewhat isolated, situated on a plain surrounded by mountains.
It is said that this was a mountainous area thousands of years ago.
Rebecca looked down at the entire Curtain City from high above and discovered some interesting phenomena.
First of all, the Galactic Team's headquarters, the Galactic Curtain Building, is located here.
Secondly, there are department stores and arcades near the Galaxy team building.
That's the funniest part.
The arcade had Team Rocket's signature code, which she recognized immediately.
It seems that Team Rocket's economic penetration of the Sinnoh region has reached a point of provoking Team Galactic!
They've driven right across from their headquarters.
Oh well, she couldn't be bothered with any of that.
It's getting late, let's finish the last gym battle as soon as possible.
Inside the curtained dojo.
It turns out to be a puzzle game where you push boxes.
If you can only view it from a first-person perspective, solving the puzzle is not easy.
Even if you defeat all the trainers who stand in your way.
The boxes still need to be pushed.
However, she is, after all, a superhuman.
It's not difficult to find the right answer if you just peek into the minds of the trainers in the dojo.
"Nice to meet you! Please take care of me!"
“I am the gym owner, A-Li, Rebecca. I’ve heard Ayaka-senpai mention you before.”
"I will give it my all, so please don't hold back!"
"Go, Infernape!"
"Gem starfish!"
……
I kept telling myself not to hold back, but after actually winning 6 games in a row, I felt really frustrated.
A child is a child.
"I have lost. Please accept this badge."
"Whoosh!"
After removing the badge.
Rebecca teleported to high in the sky outside the gym and released Latios.
The Sinnoh League is actually not far from Veilgate City.
You can travel from Binhai City via waterway No. 223.
Alternatively, you can fly directly from Veiled City.
She, of course, skipped those tedious steps.
As the sun sets, it shines in the dim, yellow light.
You can see the high slope where the Sinnoh League is located, with a spectacular waterfall cascading down!
It seems very similar to the Hoenn region.
The road to victory is also built on the high mountain behind the waterfall.
However, she had no interest in appreciating the beautiful scenery.
Becoming an unprecedented "nine-time champion"!!
Just today!
Sinnoh League Building.
In the solemn and dignified challenge room.
Ah Liu, wearing a sleeveless tight-fitting T-shirt, seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
"Rumor has it that you have a very impatient temperament and often take less than three days to challenge other alliances."
"It seems there's more to it than meets the eye."
"I am the Bug-type Elite Four member here, come and fight!"
"Queen Bee!"
"King Nido!"
As soon as the queen bee appeared, she released countless larvae from the nest beneath her...
Nidoking was about to unleash a Flamethrower.
[Start with provocation!]
It had no choice but to obey the instructions.
Turning around, it raised its tail and swung its two giant eggs twice in a provocative manner at the queen bee.
This kind of creature that commands countless tiny bees to attack usually has very strong firepower!
Even if they were burned, the enemy would not be able to escape unscathed.
Often, they end up with a pig's head after being stung by bees.
Therefore, it is necessary to provoke them first, so that they lose the ability to execute "defense commands" and "respond commands".
Otherwise, we'll be facing a tsunami of countless bees!
"You've been found out?... It seems you're quite experienced in combat..."
Ah Liu exclaimed in admiration.
"Then let's crush it with the Power Gem!"
Countless young bees launched an attack together with the queen bee. The young bees were fearless and their offensive was extremely fierce!
[Destroy the beam and wipe them all out in one fell swoop!]
As long as the opponent only knows how to "attack".
In terms of absolute violence, he is definitely no match for Nidoking!
"Boom! B ...
The heat source that disrupts the light travels in all directions through the air.
They formed a tight light prison, trapping the queen bee.
Its diamond rays only clashed with the destructive light for a fleeting moment before disintegrating instantly!
A violent shockwave spread throughout the entire battlefield.
As the smoke cleared, the queen bee lay dying...
King Nido took the opportunity to bring about a clear sky.
"Desert dragonfly!"
Not a buddy.
Are you playing word games, you Bug-type Elite Four member?
What's the point of bringing up an "earth dragon"?
[Use the Freeze Beam!]
A-Liu initially thought the opponent activated Sunny Day to try and push the team away with Flamethrower.
Unexpectedly, Nidoking began spewing out extremely cold white lightning from his mouth!
"You know so many moves..."
……
Nine and a half minutes have passed.
As the last Dragon Scorpion fell.
"Let's go to the next room. I'm curious to see who's stronger, you or Zhu Lan."
Rebecca was taken aback when she entered the second room and saw the Heavenly King guarding the gate.
"Kikuko?"
"Hmm...people often confuse me with that person..."
"Is it because I'm too low-key, not as famous as Kikuko?"
"I am Kikuno, the Ground-type Elite Four member of Sinnoh."
"Let's start the competition, little girl, I need to go to bed early and get up early."
The match started quickly.
"Super Armored Rhinoceros!"
Rebecca, on the other hand, released a starfish.
Good guy.
This old woman immediately dispatched her ace up, a super armored rhinoceros with a level of over 80!
"earthquake!"
Starfish use high-speed rotation to stay airborne.
He then used his shadow clone technique to easily avoid the earthquake.
"Interesting, let's use a rock cannon!"
It's not that Kikuno is weak.
For the gem starfish, this clumsy and stupid enemy is something it can easily defeat.
Although a large number of shadow clones were pierced and disappeared.
There are still many remaining clones.
The gem starfish uses its flashes to visually control its opponent.
Then, water cannons were used to create water jets, continuously cutting through the super armored rhinoceros.
In contrast, not a single attack could hit the Super Armored Rhinoceros.
Even if you manage to hit them, you can be forcibly dodged by teleportation.
The consequences were predictable.
"Come back, you're really amazing."
"Sand hippopotamus!!"
The newly introduced sand hippopotamus used the holes all over its body to spew out a huge amount of sand and gravel.
A sandstorm quickly formed, covering the entire area!
The starfish's clone tactic was immediately broken.
Furthermore, its sand-blowing properties cause it to lose energy.
"Let's see how you hide now, with an earthquake!!"
"hide?"
[Start with Water Pulse, then Surf!]
The gem starfish understood and quickly enveloped itself in the water, continuously performing surfing maneuvers.
The water on the field is increasing, mixing with mud and sand, forming a muddy current!
The power of an earthquake is exerted on the ground.
Once conducted into the water, it can only vibrate the water at best, and is not as powerful as a sonic attack.
Finally, the gem starfish used its freezing beam in the water to freeze the sand hippo into an ice sculpture.
"You've done your best, sand hippo."
"King Catfish!"
……
Older gingers are more spicy.
Rebecca took an unusual 11 minutes to deal with Kikuno.
This clearly demonstrates her strength.
"Great, let's go to the next room, kid."
After giving the elf a preliminary boost, Rebecca continued on her way.
In a room decorated entirely in bright red.
The man with the red hair and afro had been waiting for a long time.
"I am Da Ye, and as you can see, my specialty is fire."
"I heard from Dianci that a formidable opponent is coming to challenge us this time, so we certainly won't feel empty or lonely."
"That's incredible, seven... no, I heard you already have eight league championships?"
"Let's get started."
Rebecca didn't have time to listen to his rambling.
"I couldn't ask for more!!"
"Nine-Tails!"
"King Nido!"
From the moment Nine-Tails appeared, the arena was bathed in blazing sunlight.
Hypnosis!
Nidoking was about to use his special attack move as usual, but Rebecca reminded him.
[I've said it many times: start with provocation!]
Queen Nidoran arrived first, and Nine-Tails' methods were immediately blocked.
"If you've got a trick up your sleeve, then I'll burn you to ashes!"
"Qoooo!!"
The immensely powerful jet of flame, generating temperatures of several thousand degrees, hurtled directly at Nidoking.
[Rock Blast, Shoot It!]
"Bang, bang!!"
One after another, giant rocks were ejected towards Nine-Tails after Nidoking slammed the ground.
Even with its extremely high temperature, large rocks still managed to break through the Nine-Tailed Fox's firepower and come crashing down.
"Turn up the firepower and melt all the rocks! You can do it!"
[Rockfall! ]
This time it was a rock falling from above.
The nine-tailed fox was smashed and darted around frantically, constantly trying to dodge.
King Nido gave a human-like, cold laugh.
It already knew Rebecca's intentions.
Another sharp stone attack!
Even the Nine-Tails didn't expect that rocks would pierce out of the ground this time.
It was still hit, pushed against the ceiling, and was on the verge of death!
A few beads of cold sweat appeared on Da Ye's forehead.
Since becoming a superstar.
This kind of oppressive feeling was as if he was being manipulated at will.
He couldn't help but be curious.
Is Zhu Lan stronger, or is the young girl in front of us stronger?
……
It only took 10 minutes to defeat Daye.
In Rebecca's opinion, Kikuno was probably more troublesome.
"Keep moving forward, the next one is much stronger than me."
She continued to the next room.
In this bright room filled with pink and purple hues.
Wu Song, dressed in a burgundy suit, exuded a scholarly air.
When he saw Rebecca approaching, he reached out and pushed up his glasses with his index finger.
"You've come at just the right time; I've just finished reading a book."
"I am Wusong, and my specialty is superpowers."
"I know you're eager to fight Zhu Lan, but before that, you have to defeat me first."
[Mr. Mime!]
[Heracross!]
Neither of them uttered a word.
Superpowered individuals can completely replace verbal commands with their thoughts.
The Mr. Mime instinctively casts Reflect and Light Wall in an attempt to gradually consolidate its territory and establish an advantage.
However, it misjudged its opponent.
[Break through its defenses with maximum power, use a super angle attack!]
"Hey!!!"
Heracross spread its wings, and a pair of magnificent horns, as powerful as giant cannons, flashed with green light and forcefully shattered the protective barrier of the reflective wall.
They charged straight at the Mr. Mime.
"Bang!!"
It was suddenly thrown away.
It sank completely into the ceiling and then slowly free-falled.
Instant kill! Level 100 vs. Level 79, simple and brutal!!
"...So let's see how you deal with this guy."
"Oh!"
The next opponent to appear in the advanced ball is Alakazam.
Heracross, having completed his midfield sword dance, launched an attack and headed the ball into the corner once again.
"Whoosh!"
This time it missed.
It's teleportation!
Then came a powerful mental attack.
[Use insect sounds!!]
"Zzzzz!!"
"Buzzing!!!"
A piercing sound wave collides violently with superpowers in mid-air!!
Finally, Heracross was severely injured, and Alakazam was on the verge of death.
"You reacted quickly, let's try this one then."
"Ya-dong~"
Slow-moving beast?
The Slowbro opened its mouth and unleashed a high-temperature flame, about to strike!
"Come back!"
"Gem starfish!"
Heracross was substituted, and Gem Starmie used Rain as soon as she entered the game.
[Just stare blankly!]
Song Wu naturally wouldn't let go of the opportunity to strengthen himself.
If a Slowpoke gets meaty, it's quite a beast.
But the next moment, he froze.
Unbeknownst to the Slow-Footed Beast, it had already frozen into an ice sculpture.
The gem starfish followed up with an eight-point light wheel, shattering the ice sculpture.
"I really shouldn't underestimate you. It seems that what you showed earlier wasn't your true level."
"What do you say?"
……
Eleven minutes later, the last Espeon was frozen into an ice sculpture.
It seems the Sinnoh League is of a very high standard.
Rebecca could foresee that the champion, Cynthia's Pokémon, would probably be close to level 90!
It might even surpass that!
Between the black champions.
Zhu Lan waited for about 3 minutes.
She had just received an urgent notice telling her to get to her post immediately.
I thought Rebecca would at least officially challenge the Four Heavenly Kings tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, she was too lazy to wait all night.
"Let's skip the self-introduction process."
"Then let's start the competition quickly."
"as you wish!"
The bamboo orchids today are different from usual.
She was wearing a white trench coat, a stark contrast to her usual black outfit.
It further highlights the elegant and noble temperament of the bamboo orchid!
Rebecca was overwhelmed by the sights.
Not bad, not bad...
"Flower Rock Monster!"
"Gem starfish!"
"A surprise attack!"
Since Starmie releases shadow clones, Rockruff's moves are naturally ineffective.
Of course, this was within Zhu Lan's expectations, and she wasn't flustered at all.
After several exchanges...
The Flower Rock Monster was easily defeated by Starmie's alternating "Flash and Magic Dazzle" attacks.
However, the gem starfish was in poor condition and had lost a lot of energy.
Is it a curse?
"Go, Lucario!"
"return."
Rebecca retrieved the starfish and sent out Mud.
As expected of Bamboo Orchid!
They forced her to switch out her trump card right from the start.
Even with the curse, the gem starfish is not incapable of fighting again.
But it will most likely be on the verge of death as well.
