Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

After much thought, there was only one possibility: the other three had also successfully advanced to the finals, and Jiang Chengcheng and Kong Lingwei, who were in the same group, were about to compete for the win.

Holding a celebration banquet tomorrow is ultimately inappropriate.

His opponent tomorrow is someone he knows well, Lin Xingyan, who was mentored by Su Hao's father. After this match, he will have a rest period of nearly a month.

Just then, Miao Yin sent me a message.

The message contains the following content:

[Miao Yin]: The High School Cup will officially end tomorrow, and there will be a break of about a month. It's a good time to go see the Pokémon that you were supposed to play.

[Miao Yin]: This time I need to go abroad, so I will travel with you.

[Pokémon Master]: Going abroad? Where?

[Miao Yin]: The town of Eulerand in the southwest of Bavaria, Germany!

[Miao Yin]: I will take you to handle the procedures for going abroad later.

Riolu, Lucario.

Chapter 227 Group A Final

June 6.5th is the final day of the regional competitions across the country. Today, the four spots for each region to participate in the official knockout stage of the University Cup will be determined.

As always, Su Hao's match was scheduled as the first one of the day.

After a full day of buzz, more and more people learned that the Sichuan region had also produced professional-level Pokémon comparable to those in the Beijing region, and they all turned their attention to it.

Before the competition began, Su Hao approached the person in charge of the Sichuan region to ask about something. After receiving a positive reply, he stood on the battlefield with satisfaction.

Today, his opponent is Lin Xingyan, an old acquaintance he has known for several years and with whom he has a good relationship.

"I was really shocked backstage yesterday. I never expected your Blazing Roaring Tiger to break through to the professional level without a word." Lin Xingyan's smile was as bright as ever as he extended his right hand to shake hands with Su Hao.

Su Hao humbly extended his hand and said, "I barely managed to break through before I came back, so please be lenient with me today, Brother Xingyan."

"No matter what, I'm really looking forward to seeing who you'll send out this round. Even if it's the Blazing Roaring Tiger, it will only make our flames burn even brighter!"

Lin Xingyan had been looking forward to his duel with Su Hao ever since he won yesterday.

He truly is a descendant of the idol he admires, surpassing his predecessors.

The more he studied the path of fire, the more he understood its profoundness. Even if Su Hao sent out the Blazing Roaring Tiger, he would do everything in his power to resist.

Su Hao was taken aback, then replied awkwardly, "The Blazing Roaring Tiger won't be making an appearance today. Yesterday, it only managed to unleash a speed it wasn't good at because it was injured. Now, the Blazing Roaring Tiger needs to rest."

This statement was also broadcast live, which relieved some people who had been paying attention.

It turns out that Incineroar's performance yesterday was so comprehensive. It easily defeated a Pokémon that would take ordinary professional-level Pokémon a long battle. Its speed was even comparable to Kingdra in the rain, which makes sense, because all of this comes at the cost of injury.

This is a lie!

Su Hao and Lin Xingyan have a good relationship. With his extremely high emotional intelligence, he would never do something as outrageous as trying to kill three people at once.

The Blazing Roaring Tiger did suffer internal injuries from unleashing a speed beyond its capabilities, but with Su Da's help, it was quickly healed.

Lin Xingyan was taken aback, and said regretfully, "Is that so...?"

It didn't matter whether he lost or not; he was really eager to see the strength of the Blazing Roaring Tiger, but alas.

Without saying anything more, the two slowly walked to the command position and took out their Poké Balls.

At the referee's signal, the two people who were rubbing their Poké Balls at the command posts simultaneously released their Pokémon!

boom!boom!

Two soft popping sounds as the Poké Balls opened.

After a flash of light, the two Pokémon landed on the battlefield.

On Lin Xingyan's side, there was the dull thud of a large canine Pokémon landing, while on Su Hao's side, there was Dragapult floating silently in the air.

Pokémon: Arcanine

Attribute: [Fire]

Gender: [♀]

Trait: [Heart of Justice]

Rank: [Early Elite]

"Growlithe..."

"Doraki..."

Both were taken aback. Su Hao was very familiar with Arcanine, a Pokémon that was basically monopolized by the police department, while Lin Xingyan was very wary of the Dragapult that Su Hao had sent out.

Lin Xingyan's speedhound has shiny, smooth fur, clearly indicating that it has been carefully groomed.

The referee blew his whistle, the sound echoing across the wide arena: "Battle begins!"

"Rapidly approach Draco, Flame Fang!"

"A flash of lightning!"

Both sides gave the orders at almost the same time.

Su Hao and Lin Xingyan both chose to use speed-boosting techniques.

In reality, the base speed stat reflects the overall speed, which includes attack speed, move recall speed, reaction speed, running speed, and flying speed. Although Dragonite's speed is the same as Magikarp's at 80, the two cannot be compared.

Arcanine is a Pokémon known for its running speed. While its base stats may seem slower than Dragapult before it fully evolves, real-world data can only be used as a reference and is not absolute.

The two sides gathered their moves at almost the same speed, but their movement speeds were worlds apart.

"Ouch——!"

Arcanine let out a long, threatening howl and began to run with incredible agility.

Dorronki glanced at Arcanine, white light gathering around him, signaling Dorronmesia above him to hold on tight, he was about to start driving!

Also at the early stage of Elite level, Arcanine in high-speed movement mode appears to be carried by a gentle breeze as it runs, its fur fluttering in the wind.

However, Draco, who used the preemptive move Quick Attack, is currently showing a slower speed.

Within seconds, the two sides clashed in close combat on the side of the field closest to Su Hao!

Arcanine stared intently at Draco, let out a low growl, and leaped up at Draco, which was flying straight down at low altitude and was enveloped in white light. Flames instantly wrapped around its sharp canine teeth, waiting in Draco's flight path for it to crash into it!

In this situation, trainers cannot give commands without using special abilities; it all depends on the Pokémon's own judgment, honed through regular training.

"Ow—"

Dragapult, its body transformed into white light, flew straight along its trajectory like a fighter jet. Its narrow eyes narrowed, and stereotypes suggested that Pokémon like Dragapult and Dragapult looked rather cunning.

Yes, it's true.

With his quick thinking, Draco reacted instantly, twisting his body sharply to dodge Arcanine's Flame Fang, which was being fiercely bitten down by its jaw muscles.

Su Hao seized the opportunity and ordered, "Dragon Pulse!"

After dodging the Flame Fang, Doraki flew in an arc, turned around, and opened its mouth to unleash a long, thin Dragon Pulse.

Lin Xingyan and Arcanine were both stunned in surprise, then quickly reacted: "Flamethrower!"

Arcanine's fire-type energy surged, with large clusters of sparks swirling around its majestic body. Its limbs gripped the ground, its muscles taut and bulging, and it opened its mouth to spew out intensely hot flame rays!

Historically, the left side of the ball always loses, except for that pig ____.

Arcanine is impeccable in both physical attributes and energy moves. Lin Xingyan trained it to the point that it can even fight against Pokémon that are a level above it.

The blazing flames and the dragon's energy were locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand for a time.

But he encountered the extraordinary Draco. Although Draco, who had just been promoted to Elite, could not overpower Arcanine for the time being, he was not fighting alone!

The Dragapult, Strider, and Ratna family are all Pokémon that are recognized as a single entity despite their large group size.

We are of one mind!

The younger brother, Doromexia, above Doronchi's head, is telepathically connected to his older brother; they understand each other's meanings without needing to be conveyed.

Doronmesia raised its small head, opened its mouth, and unleashed a dragon pulse even larger than itself, joining the battle!

The two dragon waves were released almost as one, their techniques merging without any repulsion, instantly becoming one.

In just one exchange, Arcanine's powerful jet attack was overwhelmed, and then a double Dragon Pulse shattered the jet attack with overwhelming force, crashing into Arcanine!

Boom—Bang!

The sound of the attack hitting flesh was deafening, and Arcanine was blasted backward by the force of the explosion, letting out a mournful howl.

As the smoke from the explosion dissipated, the battered and bruised Arcanine, though disheveled, still retained its imposing presence and struggled to its feet.

Meanwhile, Doronchi, who was opposite him, had already disappeared without a trace.

Lin Xingyan was taken aback, immediately realizing the threat, and hurriedly ordered, "Could it be... Arcanine, get out of the way!"

Because he didn't hear Su Hao give the order, he forgot that Duolongqi had a move called the unpredictable Spirit Strike!

Arcanine's reaction was incredibly fast; trusting its trainer implicitly, it reacted in a mere two seconds, and just as it was about to unleash its power to dodge to the right—

Draur, having already used Shadow Strike, coldly stared at Arcanine with its narrow eyes from another dimension, and was not going to give Arcanine a chance.
