Chapter 1221 Battle with Karuni
"I will be providing commentary for this match, and I hope everyone here, both at the stadium and in the live stream, will enjoy it."
Pachira spoke in a methodical and clear manner, and his articulate tone didn't sound like a commentator.
But Carlos's home crowd didn't care.
Everyone was already very happy to hear Pachira's voice again!
Karuni gazed in the direction of the broadcasting room, a captivating smile slowly spreading across her face.
Welcome back, Pachira.
Kashiwagi raised an eyebrow. "You're no longer one of the Four Heavenly Kings, but do you still want to be the host?"
If you're so dedicated to your career, why did you do this in the first place?
Oh.
I forgot you had a crush on Lion's Head.
In the Pokémon world, nine out of ten female executives of villainous organizations harbor some kind of special affection for their boss.
Did the lovers finally get married?
No.
As a world viewpoint for children's works, the villainous organizations here mostly don't end well.
Even if there are positive outcomes—like Team Rainbow Rocket in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon—they only exist in the background story, and the main world is still completely destroyed.
Poor woman.
Kashiwagi shook his head, refocusing his attention on the game.
Just then, referee Deng Peishu finished explaining the rules of the competition and raised his hands to signal both sides to release their Pokémon.
"Both sides, please send out your starting Pokémon!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two Poké Balls were thrown out.
Boom!
The white light flashed and split to both sides.
"Ah, ma~"
A giant ice dragon, its body a blend of light blue and azure, entered the arena. Its long, fan-like fins on either side of its neck swayed in the wind, emitting a faint glow, creating a dreamlike scene.
The corresponding Pokémon is Blissey.
Unlike in the past, there was a slight sense of tension when she appeared.
Having realized just how amazing she is now, the happy egg is undergoing a complete transformation into a true powerhouse.
"Happy!"
The pink egg looked at its opponent with eager anticipation.
Two Pokémon images appeared on the big screen, and Pachira said in a sweet voice, "The competition is about to begin. Our champion, Miss Karune, as usual, sends out the Ice Dragon to test the opponent."
"Champion Kashiwagi chose Blissey, a Pokémon with exceptionally high Special Defense..."
Her commentary was unhurried and easy for the audience to understand. As a former Elite Four member, her perspective allowed her to view the Pokémon on the field from the viewpoint of a strong player during the pre-match introductions.
Unlike ordinary commentators who simply read from a script or are purely theoretical, he is not a typical commentator.
To make the match between champions clear to the audience, it's crucial to have someone who truly understands the game. Of course, understanding alone isn't enough; eloquence is also essential.
Otherwise, only he himself could understand what he was describing.
Pachira is both eloquent and knowledgeable about the battles, making him one of the most suitable commentators.
Referee Deng Pei confirmed the information and announced loudly, "The match begins!"
"Wall of light."
"meditation."
Kashiwagi and Karuni, who had been waiting for this moment, opened their mouths at the same time, and the commands rang out simultaneously.
Immediately, the Pokémon all attacked at the same time.
However, the speed at which the moves are executed varies.
The Happy Egg was noticeably faster; with its eyes closed and open, its spiritual energy gathered into a droplet, which fell into its heart and ended the amplification.
It was completed in one go, with perfect fluidity.
Wow!
The orange-red glow steadily increases its special attack and special defense.
Before the ice and snow dragon, multiple layers of light walls appeared, shining with dazzling light. They were slightly spaced apart from each other, seemingly thin yet inexplicably giving people a sense of solidity.
Pachira: "Starting with a power-up! Both sides are being cautious, not launching an attack immediately, which shows their fighting style—look! The Pokémon is attacking!"
The two Pokémon, gazing at each other from afar, raced forward at high speed.
Neither side wanted to give the other too much time to prepare, especially Karuni's side.
She summarized the reasons for the previous defeat, saying that in addition to the information gap, the main reason was the excessive probing attacks, which repeatedly gave Kashiwagi opportunities, allowing him to fully implement his tactics and playing style.
There is only one way to deal with Kashiwagi—
Fast break!
It's not that the Pokémon are fast, but that they need to be quick in transitions and unleash their full power when necessary, without giving Kashiwagi's Pokémon any breathing room.
Karuni's beautiful face was full of seriousness.
Neither of the Pokémon was particularly fast, so they began to build up their power to attack their opponent along the way.
The Lucky Egg was created first, and a huge, azure sphere of light instantly took shape.
"Ha-ppy!!"
It let out a low cry and suddenly hurled the spinning ball of light towards the ice and snow dragon!
call!
The azure orb of light hurtled through the air and met the incoming cluster of cone-shaped ice pillars head-on.
Bang bang bang bang!
Ice shards flew everywhere, and white mist surged. The ice spikes released by the ice dragon were as fragile as flying sand, and they did not stop the path of the true energy bullets at all!
Karuni's pupils constricted sharply, "Falling rocks!"
hum!
The energy blast touched the light wall in front of the ice and snow dragon, and was momentarily frozen by its obstruction.
The extremely short time allowed it to catch its breath.
Numerous rocks crashed down, colliding with the azure energy sphere, giving the ice dragon the opportunity to dodge to the side.
call--
The enormous ball of light narrowly missed it, landing at the edge of the field and exploding into thick fog.
Pachira shouted, "The Qi blast shot straight in! Ice spikes and light walls couldn't stop it! The ice dragon narrowly dodged the falling rocks!"
The audience gasped in unison.
Kashiwagi's Lucky Egg has such high output?
Unbelievable!
The performances in the previous and this tournaments, across two open competitions, have made everyone realize one thing—
Happy Egg has become stronger!
Moreover, it represents a significant and transformative enhancement!
What kind of magic does Kashiwa possess that allows it to make already ridiculously strong Pokémon even stronger?
Inside the venue, the Happy Eggs continued their journey.
As the Qi Ball surged forward, it continued to run and approach the Ice and Snow Dragon, and the two were now less than ten meters apart.
Since the latter had just used up its rockfall attack, it had no room to make another move and could only watch helplessly as the azure electric current gathered in Lucky Egg's hand.
Kashiwagi deliberately didn't fire the True Qi Bullets in quick succession, but some of his variations were faster, leaving the Ice and Snow Dragon unable to react in time and dodge!
"Electromagnetic waves."
"Roll away to get out of the way!"
The commands were given one after the other, and the responses were also given one after the other.
As the ice dragon rolled sideways, lightning bolts shot out from Lucky Egg's hand, crackling and popping as they entered its body.
"Woo!"
The ice dragon groaned and immediately fell into a state of paralysis.
This not only slowed down its movement and reaction speed, but also caused a slight stagnation in its energy flow.
Don't underestimate the small amount; in the current situation, it can be quite fatal.
Its attack speed was already slower than that of the Happy Egg, and now that everything else has slowed down, it's like it's become food on the Happy Egg's cutting board, ready to be sliced open at any time.
However, Karuni is not the kind of person who will give up easily.
The moment she saw the ice dragon fall victim to the attack, she resolutely shouted, "Ultimate Impact!"
"The Ice Dragon is paralyzed! Karuni is launching a counterattack instead of retreating!" Pakira's voice rose.
next moment.
"Oh my god!!"
The ice dragon endured the paralysis, its fleshy fins swaying as ice and snow shimmered around its body, unleashing a terrifying cold wave that froze the ground!
ka ka ka-
A series of freezing sounds suddenly rang out.
In the blink of an eye, the towering blue dragon transformed into a terrifying white blast of cold air, hurtling towards the nearby lucky egg!
With a sudden burst of energy, even if the flow of energy is slightly sluggish, it still manages to cover a large enough area to leave the opponent nowhere to escape!
"Oh my god!!"
The sound of the ice dragon, carried by the swirling cold wind, resembled the howl of a blizzard, causing the temperature across the entire area to drop!
Feature: [Frozen Skin]!
When a move of normal type is used, it will be converted to ice type!
With the addition of the [Ultimate Impact], if it were to actually hit the target, even if the Lucky Egg is level 90, its stamina would suddenly drop to an extremely dangerous level!
call!
The wind is biting cold!
A chilling cold swept over her, and the little egg instinctively raised its hand, conjuring a radiant, shimmering blue barrier.
Hold on!
Sizzle—Bang!
After a teeth-grinding squeak, the barrier in front of the Lucky Egg suddenly shattered!
They held on, but couldn't hold out!
It's worth noting that very few Pokémon have ever managed to break Blissey's Protect, let alone do so so easily, which shows just how powerful and swift the Ice Dragon's ultimate attack truly is.
"Happy!"
The Lucky Egg suddenly flew backward, its round body tumbling on the ground before returning to its starting point in the blink of an eye.
A large area of frost covered its front, and the place where the ice dragon had just struck had turned into a sky-blue color of ice crystals.
This demonstrates the deterrent power of this move.
"Ultimate Impact hits! Lucky Egg's defense has been broken! Karune's fast attack is showing initial success!" Pachira's voice drew cheers from the audience.
She continued, "It was truly a breathtaking scene! Faced with an environment completely unfavorable to herself, Karuni showed no panic whatsoever, and launched a fierce attack to secure the victory!"
Given the situation just now, anyone would be terrified, since the Lucky Egg possesses extremely powerful True Energy Bullets, which could very well defeat the paralyzed Ice and Snow Dragon.
Instead of panicking, Kaluni made a decisive move and successfully widened the distance between them.
So, how are the Happy Eggs doing?
the answer is--
very good!
It quickly got up, shook off the frost and snow from its fur, and seemed to be in relatively good spirits.
It's okay to be hit by a physical attack?
No, it was protecting it and helping it withstand enough of its power.
After all, it's a skill honed through countless trials. No matter how swift the ultimate impact of freezing skin may be, it can still be neutralized.
"Happy!"
The Lucky Egg approached again, kneading its hands to create azure light waves that coalesced into a light sphere about half the size of its body.
Let's try it again, just like the gourd!
Its idea was very clear, but compared to last time, the Ice Dragon was no longer as fast as before, and could use two small skills in a short time to block the path of the True Qi Ball.
So that I have a chance to dodge?
"Hold on!"
Karuni had no choice but to try and block them.
The light wall flashed, initially dissipating some of the energy blast's power, with the remaining force striking the ice and snow dragon's defenses.
Ouch!
The light barrier shattered as well, and the remaining fighting energy poured onto the surface of the ice dragon!
Paqira: "That was close! The Ice Dragon successfully activated and held its ground!"
Even champions cannot completely eliminate the aftershock of the Ultimate Impact, but long-term training allows them to reduce its duration as much as possible.
It has a greater chance of surviving, especially when the opponent uses ranged attacks.
pity.
The effect is not good.
"Oh my!"
It knelt down in pain.
Four times the effect of fighting attribute energy, how can it be so easy to withstand?
Moreover, Blissey has already used Meditation once, and thanks to the Psychic-type Pokémon's mental amplification techniques, its meditation effect can even surpass that of Psychic-type Pokémon.
This also caused the ice dragon to suffer severe damage.
Karuni's heart trembled.
The Happy Egg's attack power was so great that even her Ice Dragon couldn't withstand it. Just what level is it?
In the broadcasting room, Pakira continued, "The energy blast has hit! Even with double protection, it's still not enough! The critical moment is coming!"
This was because after attacking, the Lucky Egg once again closed in on the Ice Dragon.
The distance between the two Pokémon has once again narrowed to less than ten meters.
Can the Ice Dragon launch another ultimate attack?
Karuni clearly had this idea, but unfortunately Kashiwagi didn't give her the chance.
"True Energy Bullet".
Double Ki Blast!
This time, the Ice Dragon was completely unable to react. Karini held its Poké Ball in her hand, but she couldn't switch it out before Blissey could make its move.
hum!
The enormous, deep blue light wave roared forward.
The ten-meter distance was barely a blink of an eye. The ice dragon habitually lay down, but its slender neck couldn't keep up with the speed.
Bang——! !
A deafening explosion!
The energy blast hit its mark perfectly! The entire attack landed squarely!
The billowing smoke obscured the situation on the ground.
Pachira shouted, "The Qi Blast has hit again! Can the Ice Dragon hold on this time?"
The referee enters the arena to check the Pokémon's condition.
The wind blew away the smoke of battle, revealing the scene inside.
Amidst the impact-marked ground, the ice dragon lay on its side, seemingly unconscious.
"The Ice Dragon is unable to fight, and Lucky Egg wins!"
Wow!
Applause and cheers erupted!
The audience, watching the scene below, couldn't help but marvel at Kashiwagi's strength.
Karuni on the other side is the champion!
He actually managed to take it down despite having the advantage!
Unbelievable!
Pachira also said, "Champion Kashiwagi truly deserves to be the most popular trainer right now; his strength is extraordinary. Even against Karune, he can maintain a relative advantage."
"So, how will Miss Karuni deal with such a formidable opponent?"
boom!
The sound of the Poké Ball being activated.
It turned out that after Karini recalled the Ice Dragon, she quickly switched to the next Pokémon—
"Roar!!"
Tyrant! Monster Jaw Dragon makes its debut!
Karuni shouted, "Close combat!"
There was no time to regret the defeat of the Ice Dragon; the next to step onto the battlefield was the King of Melee, the Monster Jaw Dragon!
The enormous Tyrannosaurus Rex roared and suddenly charged at the Blissey, giving it no chance to use its egg to recover.
"Happy!"
I didn't have time to use the Egg of the Blissey, and I was afraid that the Egg of the Blissey wouldn't be able to heal the damage inflicted by Tyranitar, so I chose to use Protect.
Ouch!
A dull, teeth-grinding sound.
But this time, they held on and persevered!
