Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

The long-awaited battle between Mimikyu-sensei and Mighty-kun is finally here!

[All of his family's wealth is tied to the mystery of Teacher Qiu!]

Anyone want to go all in on Super Strength Brother?

That's all. You're the only one left. Rest in peace.

However, despite having more votes than Song Chen, Lin Xuan's votes weren't overwhelmingly superior. Considering Lin Xuan's large fan base, most people actually felt that Lin Xuan's abilities were roughly equal to Song Chen's. Only Song Chen himself knew how much stronger his abilities had become in such a short period of time.

In their circle, no one dares to say they can beat Lin Xuan with certainty. Even Bai Yao can only say it's a 50/50 chance. Cheng Si has a better chance of winning, but as for themselves... they don't have much of a chance.

However, Song Chen still wanted to give it a try and see just how strong Lin Xuan's abilities had become in such a short time.

Lin Xuan and Song Chen stood on opposite sides of the battlefield, glancing at each other as if they could see into each other's thoughts. After all, they had known each other for so long and were quite familiar with one another.

I can already feel the sparks of battle!

Let's get started!

[I wonder if we'll get to see Mimikyu's analysis of the Mysterious Player's match tonight?]

[If they win, there's a post-game analysis; if they lose... I think Mimikyu-sensei might just find an excuse to concede defeat?]

Holy crap! That's definitely possible!

[Perfectly matches the temperament of Mimikyu-sensei]

"The battle begins!"

With the referee's signal, Lin Xuan and Song Chen each sent out their first Pokémon.

Lin Xuan sent out Xiaoxi Xiaomi, while Song Chen sent out Gastrodon. Neither side sent out their strongest Pokémon immediately.

"Seed Machine Gun!"

At the very beginning of the match, Lin Xuan spoke directly to Xiao Xi and Xiaomi, prompting Song Chen, who was not far away, to curse Lin Xuan for lacking martial ethics and directly using a skill that was countered by him.

Numerous seeds were spat out of Xiaoxi Xiaomi's mouth and flew towards the location of the Sea Gastrodon, which could only use hot water to defend itself.

However, Xiao Xi and Xiaomi were more flexible in their positioning. Xiao Xi remained in the same spot, but Xiaomi quickly moved to another corner of the battlefield, and many people did not see his movements clearly.

Even Song Chen was taken aback, and at the same time, he was thinking to himself:

Is this really Xiaomi? The two little guys have mastered the art of creating clones to such an extent that even his sea hare beast can't tell them apart.

Of course, given some time, it is possible to do so, and even as the game progresses, the audience might be able to discover some clues.

But this was a battle, and there was no time for Song Chen to consider these things. He had to make a decision and convey it to the sea hare beast immediately, so he chose a decision that was at least unlikely to be wrong.

"turbid current!"

The sea hare swerved to the side, temporarily dodging the Seed Machine Gun's attack. At the same time, it used Turbid Current, sending a large amount of muddy water rushing towards Xiaoxi and Xiaomi. Xiaomi's face instantly showed a look of disgust before she jumped back to Xiaoxi's side.

"Are both of these real?"

Song Chen said with some doubt, "The expressions on the faces of these two mice are too realistic. It's impossible to tell whether they are real or fake. But if they are fake, where are the real ones?"

Lin Xuan's actions quickly conveyed to Song Chen that he didn't need to guess anymore and that she would give him the correct answer directly.

However, upon hearing the answer key, Song Chen felt an urge to curse.

A large number of clones instantly appeared from Xiao Xi Xiaomi's body, about ten in total, and they all spread out in all directions at the same time, all doing the same thing—seed machine guns!

Most Pokémon-used Seed Machine Guns are substandard due to their slow rate of fire, but the one Xiaoxi Xiaomi used this time was much better.

Seeing the seed machine guns flying in from all directions, both the sea hare and Song Chen were stunned.

It's important to understand that these aren't fake clones like shadow clones; every attack here is real and powerful. They might be slightly weaker, but they're still enough to overwhelm the Sea Gastrodon.

"Get out of the muddy current!"

Song Chen instinctively wanted the Sea Gastrodon to dodge, but quickly realized that under such a complete area-of-effect attack, where could the Sea Gastrodon hide? It would be a sitting duck with no room to dodge, so in the end, he could only use Turbid Current to fight it.

Even so, more than half of the seeds were still hit by the machine gun, and Lin Xuan smiled.

All the fear stems from insufficient firepower!

Does Mimikyu-sensei have a fear of insufficient firepower?

[Is that... a Gatling gun?]

Comprehensive bombing

[It would be perfect if it were missing a seed bomb.]

Just as this comment appeared, Xiao Xi actually conjured a seed bomb and threw it, which exploded with a "pong!" next to the Gastrodon.

Although the turbid current also washed away several clones, Xiaoxi was also hit.

However, due to the special bond between the two mice, their injuries were shared, and some of the damage was absorbed by Xiaomi, so there was no problem for them. But Song Chen was in a terrible situation.

"This... could it have been reserved specifically for me?"

Song Chen's lips twitched as he watched the sea hare beast fall under the barrage of fire. Xiao Xi and Xiao Mi had never displayed this kind of skill in previous battles.

Even if you use clones, at most a few will come out to restrain the opponent, and the main body's output is still the main body. This is the first time that all the clones have come out together to perform a righteous gang fight.

"My main concern is that if I don't use it now, I won't have the chance later."

Lin Xuan shrugged. Actually, there was a very important problem: the fourfold weakness of the Sea Gastrodon was too fatal.

Xiaoxi Xiaomi's firepower coverage looks very strong, but it still has a fatal flaw. Similar to Gyarados's berserk state after Mega Evolution, it cannot be sustained.

Imagine, even if the power is slightly weaker, it's still almost like using ten seed machine guns simultaneously, which would be terrifying in terms of physical exertion.

If the Gastrodon can survive the first wave of attacks and then recover using its self-regeneration ability, Xiaoxi Xiaomi will still be in some discomfort.

"Thank you!"

Lin Xuan nodded in response to Song Chen's heartfelt blessing.

"You're welcome, I should do it."

【Hahahahaha! 】

[The mimicry of Teacher Qiu is too despicable]

Is this the legendary off-field psychological attack?

Even the referee on the sidelines couldn't stand it anymore. After coughing twice, he said:

"Both contestants, please be quiet. Song Chen, please send out your next Pokémon."

Upon hearing this, Song Chen could only silently recall the Sea Hare and then send out... the Earth Platform Turtle!

Because I've spent a lot of time with Lin Xuan and have some understanding of Xiao Xi and Xiaomi, I know that using this level of firepower coverage can't be done without a price, so I simply chose a Pokémon that can only withstand attacks and drag things out with you.

Since Xiaoxi and Xiaomi don't have any recovery skills, as long as they can keep going like this, they will have a huge advantage.

"Trying to stall me?"

The moment Lin Xuan saw Torterra, she saw through Song Chen's intention. After all, there was only one possibility for Xiao Xi and Xiaomi to choose such a Pokémon.

Actually, Song Chen was reluctant to send out Torterra at this time, since with Xiao Xi Xiaomi on the field, one of Torterra's most important moves was rendered useless—Stealth Rock. After all, Xiao Xi Xiaomi's Cleanup move can not only boost itself, but also directly remove moves like Stealth Rock.

It's not just invisible rocks; even light walls and reflective walls can be swept away by Xiaoxi and Xiaomi. That's the power of the Great Cleaning skill—it not only enhances defenses but also acts as a defogging tool.

“Take root!”

After entering the arena, the earth turtle did not make any rash moves. Instead, it first took root and absorbed nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium from the ground, trying to survive for the time being.

But Lin Xuan's choice regarding the opposing Earth Platform Turtle's defensive strategy was... "If you like to play defensively, then so be it."

Once the Earth Tortoise has taken root, it cannot move, essentially making it a sitting duck—although given its speed, it's practically a sitting duck to Xiaoxi Xiaomi anyway.

"Cleaning!"

Lin Xuan strengthened the Earth Platform Turtle once it took root. He wanted to see if the Earth Platform Turtle's durability could last until Xiao Xi Xiaomi ran out of stamina.

Song Chen wasn't surprised by Lin Xuan's choice; in fact, he had been preparing for it for a while. He wasn't entirely against the idea of ​​strengthening Xiaomi. As long as Xiaomi could take root smoothly, it would be like having a continuous flow of energy, which would help him buy more time.

However, this was the only chance for Xiaoxi Xiaomi to strengthen herself. After using Root, Song Chen had Torterra use Razor Leaf to fly towards Xiaoxi Xiaomi. At the same time, Razor Leaf split into two parts in the middle, as if it wanted to distribute the benefits evenly.

This turret-based, stationary upgrade strategy is considered the most widely accepted mainstream tactic. After all, Torterra's speed is undeniable. Besides... Ash's cannon fodder Torterra proved that it was originally a tank. You can't force it to be an assassin; it doesn't have the ability, you know?

Seeing the flying leaf blade coming towards her, Xiao Xi Xiaomi was not impatient at all. She split her body and dodged to both sides, and at the same time—she unleashed her ultimate move!

Just like before, a large number of clones appeared from Xiao Xi Xiaomi and rushed towards the location of the Earth Platform Turtle.

Although this approach was somewhat risky, Lin Xuan didn't care about that at the moment. He just wanted to see how far Xiao Xi Xiaomi's strongest offense could go.

Seeing this, Song Chen's expression changed. He hadn't expected Lin Xuan to be so straightforward. He had originally thought that this guy would stall for time before launching a full-scale attack.

Just as Song Chen knows Lin Xuan's Pokémon very well, Lin Xuan also knows a lot about Song Chen's Pokémon, including this Torterra.

As a turret Pokémon, Song Chen had a very clear understanding of Torterra's role and training, which was geared towards that goal. And as a turret, the first thing to ensure was not the power of the moves, but rather—accuracy!

A skill's power is only real if it hits its target; if it misses, its power is useless.

So even after the two Pokémon flew away, the Razor Leaf Blades followed closely. However, with so many clones appearing, they didn't know which one to follow, and in the end, it seemed that they were all equally affected.

However, this reduces the power considerably. Even if it hits, Lin Xuan isn't particularly worried because it won't have much effect.

"earthquake!"

Song Chen's command was quite timely. The earth turtle simply stood still, but the ground began to shake violently. The referee on the side was quite helpless when he saw this.

I hate earthquake skills the most. Every time I use one, the site has to be repaired, and I have to retreat to the side.
