Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

[Brother with superhuman strength, act normal!]

[Tell me, did contestant Xiao Zhong instruct you to come here?!]

[Brother Super Strength must have learned bad habits from Teacher Mimikyu, right?]

Upon seeing who sent the SC, Lin Xuan couldn't help but sneer.

"You still have the nerve to come to my live stream? Your streamer... is already dead! And died a very painful death!"

Lin Xuan is quite vengeful. As she spoke, she immediately muted and blocked Song Chen, thinking it best to put him in a dark room to calm down... which meant letting Lin Xuan calm down.

[Brother Guailiang is so confused!]

Congratulations to the boss for spending money and getting scolded!

"Come on, place your bets! If you like Blaziken, bet on the left; if you like Bricaron, bet on the right. I won't say a word this time, okay?"

Seeing that Blaziken and Bricaron were locked in a stalemate, and not wanting to skip over it, Lin Xuan once again activated the coin toss feature, a staple of her live stream.

I'm going all in! I'm betting on Blaziken!

I learned a lesson before: never participate in betting in Mimikyu-sensei's live stream. I used to be a guy who could win four-digit bets with coins...

[Is Teacher Mimikyu silent now? That feels like something to try.]

Wait, I watched the live stream, and the result of this match seemed to be...

Coins are a special item on Bilibili, given out daily upon login. They cannot be recharged and can only be given to favorite content creators (UPs). In a sense, they have no real value; they're just for fun. Moreover, Lin Xuan specifically set a limit of ten coins this time.

As for the person who seemed to have lost four figures in coins in Lin Xuan's live stream, Lin Xuan can only say... this is what happens to freeloaders!

Lin Xuan crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair. This time he didn't say a word. He couldn't blame himself for betting wrong, could he?

Bai Yao's Blaziken was about as strong as Bricaron's, and even had a type advantage, so it should have had the upper hand. But the final result was... mutual destruction.

Blaziken expended some energy taking down one of Willow Spring's Pokémon, and secondly, there was the issue of its fighting style; Bricaron's defense was quite solid, making it difficult for even Blaziken to break through in a short time.

Ultimately, it was by activating the Blaze ability and taking advantage of the gap in Bricaron's spike defense that it used Flare Blitz. Although it eventually defeated Bricaron, it lost its ability to battle due to the recoil, and both Pokémon fell down.

Looking at the two Pokémon lying on the field, Lin Xuan remained silent, then quietly entered the result of the prediction. This time, it was a big victory for the bookmaker.

【? ? ? 】

[This works?!]

Did Teacher Mimikyu watch the video beforehand and then try to trick us?!

Give me back my coins! Do you know how difficult it is to accumulate coins by playing for free every day?

[I've reported it! I've reported it! That's a heartless streamer!]

"Cough cough, nobody could have predicted this outcome! I swear, I definitely hadn't seen this video before! Otherwise, I would have made sure every cup of cola Xiaodian drank was flat!"

Small dot: ? ? ?

You're so high and mighty! You swear on my future! Do you even know how a mouse would survive without cola for the rest of its life?

Little Dot, who had just heard Lin Xuan's words, was about to rush over when Eevee pulled her back.

"Boy!"

[Finish the raid before you leave!]

Little Dot: ...

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about these trivial things. It's just ten coins, right? I'll allow you to watch my next ten videos for free, is that alright?"

Lin Xuan shrugged and said, "As for where the new video is... who knows? Lin Xuan's desktop folders are already number 3, and every single one is empty."

【? ? ? 】

How dare you even mention videos?

Where's your new video? It's not one of those three newly created folders on your desktop, is it?

"Alright, alright, let's get back to the game, the game is important!"

Lin Xuan saw that there really was a prophet in the comments, so she quickly changed the subject and clicked the start button for the video.

The next battle is the main event. The Pokémon that Bai Yao sent out was the last one that Lin Xuan had not yet seen among her three main Pokémon... Heracross!

As for why Bai Yao didn't use his strongest Pokémon, Farfetch'd, it wasn't because he was overconfident. Rather, in this 6v6 battle, Bai Yao still had two Pokémon left, while Liu Quan only had his last Iron Fist Warrior. In fact, the match could have been considered over at that point.

But as a fighting trainer, and one who is aiming to become a fighting master, how could Liu Quan possibly surrender? Even if he knew he would lose, he had to keep fighting!

"In the battle between Heracross and Iron Fist Warrior, Heracross clearly has a slight advantage in terms of attributes."

Lin Xuan nodded and said that type advantages and disadvantages are not too complicated, but there are always some things that are easily forgotten, such as... Bug type is resistant to Fighting and Ground type.

That's understandable, since Bug-type is so inconspicuous and is the type that's most easily forgotten.

This means that Iron Fist Warrior's most proficient fighting skills are of little effect on Heracross, but Heracross can use his full power.

As for traits... Heracross's Perseverance and Overconfidence are not very useful at least for now, and Overconfident Pokémon are best deployed at the very beginning to see if they can stack a passive ability.

"However, it's hard to say whether this Heracross's ability is overconfidence. Although it entered the battle later, my senior sister's ability might also be overconfidence!"

Lin Xuan stroked his chin and said, completely forgetting that he had just been warned by Bai Yao about this.

【Hahahahaha! 】

That makes sense.

[So, Master Mimikyu has only been at Jinhui Dojo for a few days and already knows so much about it?]

[Wait, didn't Bai Yao participate in the Poseidon Cup not long ago and only recently returned to Jinhui Dojo?]

[As expected of Mimikyu-sensei... But thinking about it carefully, it's useless. Even if Mimikyu-sensei knows girls well, she can't possibly find someone cute.]

【+1】

【Seconded! 】

As the battle began, Heracross immediately used his Shadow Clone Technique and charged towards Iron Fist Warrior. Iron Fist Warrior, however, showed no sign of panic.

"Both Pokémon are Fighting-type champions, specializing in strength. This battle should end quickly... and violently!"

Lin Xuan said this immediately, and the result was as expected. Hercules' shadow clones were completely shattered by Iron Palm Warrior's powerful push, which was somewhat similar to when Iron Palm Warrior fought Little Point not long ago.

"This Iron Palm Warrior seems to have an exceptional understanding of the 'Push' skill!"

Lin Xuan said, "After all, the only ones we need to observe in this match are Bai Yao's Heracross and Liu Quan's Iron Palm Warrior, who will be a formidable enemy for Gallade soon!"

After all, Lin Xuan couldn't expect Liu Quan and Bai Yao to face each other in the semifinals so he could get an easy win, could he? He couldn't leave his fate to luck; he had to rely on his own strength!

While scattering all the shadow clones, Heracross arrived in front of Iron Fist Warrior, then raised his head... Super Horn Strike!

Chapter 300 Whose Mega Stone?

"Faced with Heracross's Super Corner Strike, Iron Fist Warrior simply raised his fist and unleashed a Flame Fist... blocked it! It seems that Iron Fist Warrior's strength is indeed greater."

It's quite obvious from the duel that Liu Quan's Iron Palm Warrior is definitely superior in terms of strength, especially since his Iron Palm Warrior is also the agile type.

This is good news for Lin Xuan, since he had tested the Iron Palm Warrior's strength before, and it was indeed incredibly powerful.

This Heracross was slightly weaker than Iron Fist Warrior, so Lin Xuan could roughly estimate its strength to make a better judgment.

Lin Xuan made a fortune by watching one match and studying two opponents!

However, this also means that Heracross's strength is likely inferior to Iron Fist Warrior. Among all of Bai Yao's Pokémon, the only one that can be said to be able to defeat Iron Fist Warrior is probably the ace Pokémon, Shallot.

Moreover, when Iron Fist Warrior used Flame Fist to block Heracross, the flames on his fist even began to surge towards Heracross, forcing Heracross to temporarily lower his head.

Heracross has chosen to bow his head and temporarily retreat... This is a true bow!

Lin Xuan looked at Heracross in the video, bent down and pulled her head back, then immediately backed away.

"However, Iron Fist Warrior doesn't seem to be letting Heracross off the hook. He continues to attack with Fire Punch. Fortunately, Fire Punch didn't cause any burns. After all, Heracross's ability is not always reliable. If it were Guts, burns would actually increase its strength."

Lin Xuan stroked her chin as she spoke.

[That's because you didn't speak, Ms. Mimikyu; you got burned the moment you spoke!]

[Mimikyu-sensei is the ultimate weapon, directly altering the outcome across time and space!]

[MimiKyu is being modest; we all believe in your abilities.]

Please have more confidence in your mouth.

But Lin Xuan quickly understood, frowned slightly, and said in the live stream:

"No, this Heracross shouldn't have the Guts trait."

【? ? ? 】

"You found out again?"

【why? 】

"Because Senior Brother Liu Quan and Senior Sister Bai Yao are quite familiar with each other, they must have fought more than once. Any viewer in the live stream would know that Flame Fist could burn Heracross, so he must know it too. Given his personality, if Heracross really had the Guts ability, he wouldn't gamble on such a probabilistic event. So there's only one truth!"

Lin Xuan said with great certainty.

[I suspect you're subtly criticizing us?]

[Looking down on your own fans, huh? Reported!]
