Chapter 92 Xiao Mao's Defeat
Ash's third match in the League was on an ice-covered field.
This time, the opponent is a boy named A-Zheng.
"Oh dear viewers, Xiao Zhi and A Zheng have already engaged in a fierce battle."
"Ah Zheng's first Pokémon has already been defeated, so he's sent out his Cloyster again. Can he defeat Ash's Beedrill this time? Let's wait and see!"
He's still the same commentator with boundless energy.
The audience was intently watching the match. Xiaoxia, in a good seat, nervously watched Xiaozhi's match while rubbing her aching back from the previous night.
The opponents in the tournament become stronger as you progress.
The opponent released a very well-trained Clamshell.
Spiny oysters have double shell protection, with a protruding horn on the main body and some protruding horns on the outermost shell.
Its shell is so hard and thick that it seems that once the two halves of the shell are closed, nothing can hurt it anymore.
Furthermore, because it can be used on icy terrain, Cloyster's water and ice attributes are enhanced by the terrain's attributes.
"The spiny oyster retracts into its shell!"
"Deadly needle prick!"
This time, Beedrill was too slow and didn't attack Cloyster's main body before it could retract its shell; it only knocked it away.
The giant clam glided across the ice, undefeated by the bee's deadly sting.
"This is the first time Ash's Deadly Sting has failed to defeat his opponent. Could it be that a Pokémon capable of defeating Beedrill has finally appeared?"
"Of course not." Ash muttered a comment before fixing his gaze on his opponent.
"Is this clam so afraid of pain that it puts all its points into defense?"
"The Spiny Clam uses Iron Wall!"
It seems the opponent intends to play the tortoise game and survive.
"Defense alone won't win! Beedrill, aim at the gap in your opponent's shell and use Hyper Beam to pry it open!"
The powerful beam of light struck the spiked shell of the spiky oyster, creating a massive explosion.
However, after the smoke dissipated, the Spiny Shell remained standing on the battlefield, its gaps tightly closed.
But at that moment, the opposing player, A-Zheng, seemed to see an opportunity.
"After using Hyper Beam, there will be a period of vulnerability, so use Water Gun now that Cloyster has hatched!"
Ash tricked his opponent; he deliberately created an opening to lure him into attacking.
"Beedrill, deadly sting!"
The stiffness that Ah Zheng had imagined did not occur, and Beedrill's movements did not slow down in the slightest.
"What? The spiny clam, quickly retract your shell!"
"It's too late." How could Satoshi do something he wasn't sure of?
Even during the pre-competition training phase, Ash had already reduced the duration of Beedrill's stun phase after using Hyper Beam to half that of other players.
That's how you catch your opponent off guard. Beedrill's wings vibrated rapidly, and its gray-black figure flashed across the field once again.
The moment the spiky oyster opens its shell, its deadly stinger strikes its body.
It was another unscientific explosion. After the smoke cleared, the referee went forward to examine it closely.
"Clamys has lost its ability to fight!"
"Xiao Zhi has won another game!" The audience cheered enthusiastically.
"Damn it, is this the end?!" A-Zheng clenched his fists. His opponent's strength was driving him to despair. He hadn't managed to hit Beedrill even once.
"No, I've finally finished challenging the gym, I won't give up until the very end!"
"Go, my last Pokémon."
The third Pokémon he sent out was Arcanine.
"A-Zheng sent out the legendary Pokémon Arcanine, which is said to be able to run at unimaginable speeds."
"Can player A-Zheng turn the tide and win?"
"Growlithe uses a fire vortex to envelop itself."
The Deadly Needle attack is terrifying after two upgrades.
The purpose of having the flame vortex wrap around Arcanine's body was to prevent Ash's Beedrill from getting close.
They would then occasionally unleash large bursts of energy from the flame vortex to harass the enemy.
Ash wasn't in a hurry to attack; he just kept ordering Beedrill to dodge.
"Have you forgotten that this is an ice field?" Ash smiled as he watched his opponent's actions.
"Oh no, Arcanine, stop right there!"
Reminded by Xiaozhi, Azheng, who had been gloating over his tactical advantage, suddenly realized what was going on.
But it was too late; Arcanine's fire attack quickly melted the entire field into water.
"Beedrill can fly, so how can a Fire-type Arcanine defeat it in the pool?"
It seems that the opponent came up with this tactic in a moment of desperation. Arcanine, with water all around and only ice under its feet, had no room to dodge.
Ash gave the order again: Fatal Sting.
Perfect hit!
"Arcanine is unable to battle, Ash wins."
[Ding! Congratulations on completing the main quest: Defeat your opponent in the third round to advance to the fourth round of the tournament]
[Rewards: Alliance Coins +2000; Stamina +1; Free Attribute Points +2]
"Ash won the third round again; Beedrill is too strong! Will any Pokémon be able to defeat it? We'll have to wait and see in the later matches!"
The morning after Ash's match was Gary's fourth round.
As a close friend of Gary, Ash also took Misty to the Rock Field early in the morning to watch the match.
The current match has reached a fever pitch, with both sides having only one Pokémon left. Gary's Nidoking and his opponent's Golem are locked in a tense standoff.
"Nidoking, use Horn Tackle!" In the end, Gary couldn't hold on any longer and launched the first attack.
"Shigeru is in danger this time," Ash declared to Shigeru after observing the battle.
"Why? The opponent's Golem had already battled one of Gary's Pokémon. Shouldn't Gary's Nidoking, which just entered the battle, have the advantage in terms of stamina?"
Seeing that Xiaoxia didn't understand, Xiaozhi pointed to the two Pokémon on the field and said to her, "After the same move, '100,000 horsepower,' Nidoking was panting heavily, while Golem didn't seem to have suffered any damage."
"Furthermore, Golem is stronger than Gary's Nidoking in terms of speed and attack."
Sure enough, as soon as Ash finished speaking, Gary's Nidoking's Horn Tackle attack was dodged by the opponent's Graveler with a jump, which also grabbed Nidoking's big ears on its head.
"Golem Earth Throw!"
The opponent's Golem grabbed Nidoking by the ear and pulled it into the air; it was an exaggeration that such a heavy body could jump that high.
It snatched a beautiful circle and slammed Nidoking to the ground.
"Stomp again!"
The round, heavy body of the Golem fell from the sky and landed heavily on the fallen Nidoking.
Even those sitting on the edge of the stands could feel the tremor from the blow, and many audience members closed their eyes, unable to bear watching.
"Nidoking is unable to fight, Yoshiki wins!"
The referee raised the opponent's flag, and Xiao Mao lost in the fourth round of the preliminaries.
