Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

I've never seen such a memorable scene in my life.

[This level of skill... has surpassed all the famous scenes that Mimikyu-sensei has previously explained!]

I strongly suspect that it's because Mimikyu-sensei's skills have improved.

[Seconded. The fact that it could instantly trigger a ten-pull of "Fear" shows that Mimikyu-sensei's skills have improved significantly recently!]

[Could it be that Master Mimikyu has been practicing martial arts lately?]

"Don't talk nonsense. The commentator isn't responsible for anything that happened during the match!"

Lin Xuan immediately clarified that although what happened during the competition was indeed a bit outrageous, it was obvious that none of it had anything to do with him.

Of course, besides those who were just watching the spectacle, there were quite a few people who were seriously following the game, but compared to those who were just having fun, they seemed to be the ones who were most devastated.

[Mimi-Oki-sensei, please stop nagging! I can't stand it anymore!]

[After briefly putting myself in Jerry's shoes, my resolve has completely crumbled.]

[Mimikyu-sensei, maybe we should stop reviving her and give Cheese Egg a chance to live!]

Lin Xuan certainly saw these comments, but as for whether she took them to heart—obviously, she didn't.

Perhaps because she hasn't done a live stream for so long, Lin Xuan seems to lack a sense of awe towards her own "jinxing" (accidental predictions).

He just wouldn't believe it. With such a huge advantage, how could he possibly ruin it by his own jinxing?

"Those of you who bet on Jerry, don't panic—especially you, Xiao Zhong. You've backed down ten times in a row, it's time to give up. Trust me one last time!"

This time, it wasn't just the viewers in the live stream who were watching; even Ibrahimovic on the side couldn't help but look over.

Still nursing, huh? If you had just said a few less words, that lucky egg might have come back to life, okay?

Ibrahimovic initially wanted to go up and try to persuade him, but he quickly thought, "Wait a minute, what does this have to do with me? I can watch Lin Xuan have some fun here, why not?"

So Ibrahimovic hesitated for a moment before continuing to play the game on the side. However, although his attention was mainly on the game, he was still observing Lin Xuan's side, not wanting to miss any memorable moments.

Of course, in the end, it really was a scene from the underworld.

Lin Xuan stared at the screen as Happiness Egg was finally knocked to the ground by two supernatural powers and lost its ability to fight. She had a thousand words in her heart, but she just sat in her chair and couldn't say a word.

Your silence is deafening.

What can I say? You're really toxic!

If you had just said a few less words about the happy egg, it might have come back to life.

SC: Give me back my coins!!!

That SC was of course Zhong Ming's first shot, but Lin Xuan no longer even had the thought of reciting the SC; she had fallen into deep self-doubt.

Is there something wrong with me?

I do not believe!

"Don't worry, everyone. The second semi-final is about to begin. There was a small mishap during the first match, but it's nothing serious. Let's get right to the second match!"

Lin Xuan took a deep breath, forcing herself to maintain her composure, while Ibu had already run out of the room.

My main concern is that if I stay here, I might get beaten up by Lin Xuan for laughing out loud.

Even considering Lin Xuan's long history of live streaming, today's match was incredibly exciting, let alone the fact that it was a semi-final of a tournament.

The only thing to be thankful for is that this isn't the final?

If the finals turn out like this—Unova will really lose face. But it's the semifinals after all, so anyway…

Well, at least in the eyes of the audience, this match was obviously extremely exciting. It would be hard to find a match in the world that could match the entertainment value of this one.

Upon hearing that Lin Xuan seemed to have the idea of ​​commentating on the next match, the viewers in the live stream quickly tried to dissuade him.

【Alright, alright, Mr. Mimiu】

Indeed, I feel that if things continue like this, the United Alliance will be coming to attack directly.

Give them a way to survive!

[Be careful, it might actually turn into "FBI, OPEN THE DOOR!"]

Don't let one alliance cause so much trouble.

"Believe me, this was really just an accident... well, a minor but serious incident. Maybe I didn't sleep well this morning."

Lin Xuan thought about it and figured it might be because she had been traveling a lot recently and wasn't feeling well.

"I've probably been too tired lately and haven't been feeling well, but it's nothing serious. I feel like I've recovered."

Are you sure that's because you're not in good form? I feel great!

[If it has this effect when I'm not feeling well, I can't even imagine how effective it will be when I'm feeling better.]

"Don't worry, don't worry, I will definitely maintain a neutral commentary throughout this time!"

As Lin Xuan spoke, she waited for the next match to begin.

About an hour had passed. Because of the time difference, it was still daytime in the United States, but Lin Xuan didn't care. After all, he was strong and healthy and could handle it.

The second match finally began amidst the anticipation of Lin Xuan and many fans. During this hour, Lin Xuan repeatedly emphasized to his fans his neutral commentary role in the upcoming match, which ensured the smooth continuation of the commentary.

However, the second semi-final match didn't actually have any highlights in the commentary.

Compared to the evenly matched previous match, this one was quite one-sided. From our perspective, only three of our Pokémon were defeated, while our opponents were left with almost only one Pokémon that could fight.

The reason I say "almost" is because at this moment, there is still a Lucario on the battlefield that is seriously injured but still persisting.

However, because it didn't undergo Mega Evolution, it was still significantly weaker than the Staraptor on the other side.

While the opposing Starhawk had expended a lot of energy, it was not seriously injured overall.

At least in terms of its condition, it's far superior to that Lucario.

Therefore, the situation on the field is quite clear at this point.

"Starhawk unleashed another Brave Bird attack and finally defeated Lucario! Although it suffered some backlash, it was generally harmless, especially since it still had two teammates left! What are you going to do against me? Do you think you can take on all three of them at once?"

Lin Xuan shook her head. This was obviously unrealistic because there was a crucial point that many people might not have noticed.

"This Staraptor will most likely use a desperate attack. When your next Pokémon appears, it will immediately use a desperate attack. What can you do then?"

After using the "Desperate Strike" skill, one will lose the ability to fight, but will also unleash all their potential at that moment, instantly severely injuring the opponent.

In the game, the amount of damage you inflict on your opponent is equal to the amount of health you have remaining. In reality, the damage is roughly the same, making it a move that hurts the enemy by 800 but also damages yourself by 1000.

The best-case scenario would be to trade blows with the opponent, but in this situation where the advantage is so great, going all out is clearly the optimal solution.

"Under these circumstances, it would be quite difficult to turn the tide against three opponents single-handedly."

Lin Xuan analyzed it this way.

"You saying that gives me hope."

Okay, the moment of witnessing a miracle is about to begin!

【Teacher Mimi, how can the opposing team turn the tide?】

"That's a good question. As long as he can pull out a five-star Pokémon, this battle will be a piece of cake. Otherwise, it might be a bit difficult."

"So this match can basically be declared over."

Lin Xuan said almost without hesitation that with such a difference in numbers, even Eevee and Gallade would likely have a very difficult time at the four-star level without their own Aura.

Xiao Dian might be able to do it, but he's an exception. How many guys can reach Xiao Dian's level of abnormality?

Lin Xuan thought it was unlikely that the other party would pull out a five-star Pokémon.

Because this guy's first few Pokémon were rather weak.

It's worth noting that although Zhong Mingyi won the championship last time with the help of Daidaiwang, he was still evenly matched with the runner-up before that, and could even have the upper hand.

Finally, bringing out Slowking was just to be on the safe side.

But this contestant is different. If the last one is a five-star Pokémon, wouldn't the difference in strength between his Pokémon be too great? That's why Lin Xuan doesn't quite believe it.

"Forget it, let's destroy this world."

Lin Xuan watched as the opposing player pulled out a five-star Gengar, but this time he no longer had the same strong emotional fluctuations as before, and even the comments from the audience were fewer.

One reason might be that it's late and many people are asleep, but another reason is that they guessed this outcome when Lin Xuan said those words.

Teacher Mimi's poisonous predictions are truly terrifying.

I... never mind, I don't want to say anything more. That's it.

I'm tired. Let's just destroy it already.

[Congratulations to Mimikyu for securing a double kill!]

[I hereby declare once again that Mimikyu-sensei is the MVP of this Unova Tournament!]

Lin Xuan said she was very tired, really tired, wondering why she always encountered such things, especially on the same day.

Could it be that I transmigrated, causing this world to upgrade? Isn't the chance of a five-star Pokémon appearing in a tournament supposed to be very low? What's going on with you?

With the opponent pulling out a five-star Pokémon, what suspense could there possibly be?

Hey, you know what, there really is!

Lin Xuan frowned slightly as he watched the next two battles, because he felt that there was something slightly off about this Gengar.
