Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Lin Xuan stroked his chin and said, "This Alakazam is probably one of the stronger ones among the three-star level."

"There shouldn't be any problem. Song Chen can easily deal with an opponent of this strength."

Bai Yao, who was watching from the side, also said that she had seen Song Chen's Pokémon on that deserted island before, and had even battled with them.

Although he was utterly defeated by himself, Song Chen's strength was still recognized by Bai Yao.

"The match begins, and Alakazam immediately starts boosting its power on the spot, using Nasty Plot! It's incredibly greedy! But it seems to be the only way, otherwise, no matter how high Alakazam's Special Attack is, it still has no chance against Machamp, which is much stronger than itself."

Lin Xuan nodded. If it were a normal competition and he encountered this situation of being enhanced on the spot, Lin Xuan might give a negative evaluation, but now it was a time when he could only fight with all his might.

"However, Brother Strength didn't give Alakazam that chance at all. He used Bullet Punch to rush to Alakazam's opposite side and then hit it with a Bullet Punch!"

The powerful Bullet Punch struck Alakazam directly in the front, sending him flying. Naturally, Alakazam had no chance to use his Trick.

"Machamp goes straight in with Bullet Punch, one punch, two punches, three circles. That's the advantage of having more arms. I suggest you also give your Pokémon more arms. It's quite advantageous in battles."

【? ? ? 】

Is this something I can do just because I want to?

What can Gardevoir do with an extra pair of hands?

[Forget it, I'm too exhausted to push any further!]

So, does this mean that this is Mimikyu-sensei's XP?

For some reason, what was originally a very normal topic quickly became abnormal in Lin Xuan's live stream.

Especially after that last line of comments was posted, even Bai Yao's gaze towards Lin Xuan became a little strange.

"Although I already knew your XP was strange, I didn't expect it to be this strange."

Lin Xuan: ? ? ?

You never expected this!

[Could it be that Mimikyu-sensei really has some unknown fetish?]

[Detailed Explanation]

I've already prepared potato chips and cola.

It's shameful to eat alone!

"Don't spread rumors about me!"

Lin Xuan reminded Bai Yao that it was one thing for others to say it, but Lin Xuan didn't want Bai Yao to say such things.

This guy gave her all sorts of resources before, even though her own preferences weren't much better, right?

Lin Xuan didn't dwell on the topic for long before quickly turning his attention back to the match. In fact, there was really no suspense, except that Machamp's Special Defense was lowered twice in a row when Alakazam used Psychic, which made Lin Xuan's eyebrows twitch.

If this situation were to occur during a battle between two equally matched Pokémon, it could very well change the course of the game.

Fortunately, Song Chen is indeed very talented.

[Special Defense lowered twice in a row]

[This shows that Teacher Mimikyu's curse was effective after all]

Congratulations to Brother Super Strength for successfully withstanding the curse from Teacher Mimikyu through his own strength!

Because it was a preliminary round and time was tight, each trainer only needed to send out one Pokémon, meaning it was a single-elimination match, so the competition ended quite quickly.

"It's boring, that's why I said before that there's no suspense."

Lin Xuan shook her head, looking as if she had expected everything.

[If it weren't for Brother Guailiang's strength, the outcome would have been decided by your brilliance.]

Alright, alright, let's hurry up and go support the Dragon Star players in the next match!

Compared to Song Chen, everyone would rather see Lin Xuan give Long Xing a boost, since Long Xing's strength is still a bit weaker than Song Chen's. If he really gets boosted... he might still lose, after all, there are quite a few strong opponents in the National Championship.

"Thanks to the future Dragon Master's Super Score—[Please, please bless me so I can pull some strong characters!]"

Although the competition schedule has been released, the contestants themselves don't actually know who their opponents are. Just like Song Chen, he only found out after he stepped onto the field.

Seeing that Song Chen had drawn a very favorable lot, especially considering the battle scene where the Poké Ball was oozing milk, Song Chen felt a little flustered.

"That won't do! Trust me, with my blessing, the opponent you face in the first round will definitely not be strong, and you'll pass easily!"

Lin Xuan said bluntly, while Long Xing, who was watching Lin Xuan's live broadcast in the players' lounge, slapped his forehead and thought, "Oh no, am I going to lose in the first round?"

[Congratulations, boss, you traded SC for a toxic healer!]

Seeking blessings from Teacher Mimiqiu suggests that one is somewhat depressed.

"Let's go watch the other games first, and see. I trust my gut feeling."

Lin Xuan felt that she would definitely not make a mistake this time. Since Song Chen's match ended early, they went to watch other matches. It wasn't until half an hour later that Long Xing's match officially started.

The moment Lin Xuan saw Long Xing's opponent, he gasped in shock.

"Is my mouth... really that accurate?"

Chapter 396 Can't you be a little smarter?

Long Xing's opponent in this match is also an old acquaintance of Lin Xuan, and not just any ordinary one.

"Senior Cheng Yin?"

"Cheng Yin?"

Lin Xuan and Bai Yao spoke almost simultaneously, because Cheng Yin had already graduated from Huada University, so she had always been with the Jinhui Dojo team.

However, he did come back for a month before, which Lin Xuan knew, but he was quite busy during that time, so they met very few times.

I can't take it anymore, I'm dying of laughter!

I'm really curious about what Mimikyu-sensei is thinking right now.

Stop imitating Teacher Qiu, let's hurry up and check on the psychological trauma of player Ryusei.

"Hmm... This should be a very exciting match. Let's thank Longxing players in advance for their hard work and for giving us such a wonderful battle."

Lin Xuan spoke seriously, while the comments section was filled with question marks.

【? ? ? 】

[You're planning to bury him before he's even dead, huh?]

It seems that Teacher Mimikyu was well-prepared, even having prepared a eulogy.

Although Longxing may seem inconspicuous next to Lin Xuan and the others, in reality, among his peers, apart from Lin Xuan, no one can rival him. It's just that the people around him became trainers earlier than him.

The only one who was actually the same age as Lin Xuan was a pervert, which made him somewhat inconspicuous.

Therefore, Long Xing's strength is naturally quite strong, but compared to Cheng Yin... he is probably still a bit weaker, even considering Lin Xuan's understanding of Long Xing's dragon-controlling power.

Even if Long Xing's Dragon Control power could achieve the same effect as his own Waveguide, it would still be a bit far from Cheng Yin's level. Moreover, Lin Xuan felt that Long Xing would most likely not expose his Dragon Control power here.

Although it was unlucky to encounter Cheng Yin in the first round, according to the preliminary round format, it is almost impossible for a strong player to be eliminated. This is why the league would rather go through the trouble of prolonging the competition.

However, when Long Xing saw Cheng Yin, he started cursing inwardly.

He felt that Lin Xuan's curse must be taking effect, otherwise how could he be so unlucky! This was only the first round!

"Ahem, although Longxing's opponents are very strong, it's not like he has no chance at all. After all, a certain mysterious player once fought Cheng Yin to a standstill. I think Xiaolong still has a chance."

Lin Xuan offered a word of encouragement.

Stop gloating, they're already in such a terrible situation, why are you still trying to cheer them up?

[A mysterious player has reappeared?]

"Thanks to SC for the Venusaur deck being nothing—[Host, host, I'm really curious, if the mysterious player and Cheng Yin were to face off again now, who would win?], cough cough!"

Faced with this question, Lin Xuan first coughed twice to clear her throat.

"I think that although Senior Cheng Yin is very strong, the mysterious contestant is not weak either, so the mysterious contestant may have a slight advantage! Just a little bit."

Lin Xuan said very modestly that he was not bragging! After all, his current strength is indeed much stronger than Cheng Yin's.

"Although Senior Cheng Yin's Gallade is already at the four-star level, I still have a lot of confidence in the mysterious contestant's strength... Wait, Senior Cheng Yin's Gallade is four-star!"

"do not you know?"

Bai Yao glanced at Lin Xuan with a somewhat puzzled look. She remembered that Cheng Yin should have mentioned this to him.

Lin Xuan recalled that Cheng Yin had indeed mentioned this matter to her not long ago, but she hadn't paid attention to it and had forgotten about it just now.

"It's alright. Although Senior Cheng Yin's Pokémon has an overwhelming advantage in strength, our Dragon Star player also has... uh, also a tenacious spirit to fight back. Let's wait and see!"

[Hilarious! Even Teacher Qiu himself couldn't keep up the joke.]

[It can be sent away ahead of schedule]

[Farewell, Xiaolong]

While Lin Xuan and the others were chatting, Long Xing took a deep breath and then took out the Poké Ball that had been with him the longest.

"Go, Garchomp!"

Dragon Star's Garchomp has already evolved and is now his strongest main Pokémon.
