Elves: Angler's Rainy Day Team

On the field, the atmosphere was extremely tense as the two legendary elves faced off...

"Player Dakdo will attack first, and the game continues!" The referee looked at the two legendary elves emitting a terrifying aura in the field and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

This was a battle between divine beasts, and it was the first time he had officiated such a match. He might even be the first referee to officiate such a battle in the history of the competition.

Thinking of this, he tried to calm himself down and announced in his brightest voice that the game would continue.

Darko's face was gloomy and he gritted his teeth secretly. He originally thought that by releasing Articuno, he could regain the initiative in the game, but he never expected that the opponent would also take out a legendary Pokémon.

This sudden change made him feel as if he had eaten shit. Where on earth did an orphan get such a legendary elf? A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

But he didn't have time to think about it. When he heard the game was going to continue, he immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Articuno, use the freezing ray!"

"Zapdos, use thunder," Yu Hai looked up at the majestic Zapdos in the sky, his eyes full of confidence and expectation.

At this moment, Zapdos finally made his official debut and appeared in front of everyone, which also meant that he no longer had to hide and could enjoy his future life to the fullest.

"Chi, chi!" The lightning bird made a crisp cry and swooped down like a golden lightning.

In front of it, Articuno sprayed out a blue freezing ray that could freeze the surrounding air. Facing this fierce attack, it was not afraid at all. It spread its wings, and its body flashed with electric light, directly splitting the freezing ray with 100,000 volts.

Boom boom boom——

The freezing ray and 100,000 volts collided violently in the air, causing a deafening roar. The shock wave generated by the huge impact force slammed into the energy barrier around the stadium.

The energy barrier flickered violently, making a "sizzling" sound of electricity, and the light flickered, showing signs of going out at any time.

Seeing this, the staff at the main venue hurriedly increased the energy output and strengthened the strength of the energy barrier.

"Snake!" The lightning bird broke through the dense smoke and dust, as fast as a ghost, and rushed towards Articuno at an astonishing speed.

Faced with the sudden and swift pounce, Articuno was really surprised. It never expected that Zapdos would be so fast.

If it weren't for the sixth-level acceleration of the Nimblebug, the original speed of the Lightning Bird would not be so amazing. Now that it has the speed advantage, it naturally doesn't need to fight against the opponent anymore, and can directly switch to close-range combat and attack to give full play to the characteristics of the Lightning Bird.

"What a fast speed, it's a baton pass!" Dakdo finally remembered and thought to himself that something was wrong.

Articuno was obviously much slower under the violent attack of Zapdos, and could only try to resist and dodge.

From time to time, lightning strikes in the sky. Those lightning strikes are attracted by Zapdos and strike Zapdos accurately, replenishing its energy. They can also affect Articuno who is fighting in close combat. Every time lightning strikes, Articuno suffers unbearable pain and lets out bursts of wails.

Although Articuno's ice-type moves can counter Zapdos, Zapdos' electric-type moves can also counter Articuno.

But now, Zapdos has both the speed advantage and the weather advantage. With the level difference almost the same, Articuno is gradually falling into a disadvantage, and the situation is getting worse.

Boom, boom, boom——

With such a huge advantage, the lightning flashing all over the Lightning Bird became more and more violent and fierce, like an enraged beast.

As the thunderclouds continued to strike down fierce lightning, the entire battlefield was filled with dazzling golden lightning.

The air was filled with a pungent smell of burning electricity, and traces of electric current were "sizzling" in the air. Even the air was ignited by the powerful lightning.

In this unique electrical field, Pokémon will not fall asleep, and the power of electric moves will be increased by 30%, which will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire for the Zapdos that has the advantage.

"Tsk, tsk!" Articuno let out a painful cry, his voice full of pain and unwillingness.

Electric arcs flashed all over its body, and it fell straight from the sky uncontrollably. It turned out that when it was fighting fiercely with the Lightning Bird just now, it was affected by the static electricity characteristics of the Lightning Bird and fell into a paralyzed state. At this time, it even temporarily lost the ability to fly.

The right time, right place, and right people were all on Yu Hai's side. How could he not be excited? His eyes lit up and he shouted excitedly, "Now, Zapdos, use thunder..."

"Tsk, tsk!" Zapdos squinted his eyes and looked at the embarrassed Articuno below with a sharp gaze.

Then it spread its wings and nimbly broke into the black thundercloud. Then a dazzling bolt of lightning as thick as a water tank came down like a giant axe, bombarding the sky with the momentum of destroying the world.

With a loud "bang", it hit the Articuno on the ground accurately. Dust flew up on the ground and mud and water splashed everywhere.

Boom, boom, boom——

The power was still there, and Zapdos remembered the fighting skills that Ukai taught it. In order to finish off the enemy, it fired another thunderbolt without hesitation. This time, the lightning was even more violent than the last time, and it rushed towards Articuno with a roar.

"Tsk!" Articuno fell into the mud and struggled desperately. Its originally beautiful azure feathers were now covered in mud, and it looked in a miserable state.

Under the continuous thunder and bombardment, its body gradually lost strength, slowly fell down, and fell heavily into the muddy puddle, splashing a large amount of mud and water, and never stood up again.

"Whoa, whoa whoa, Zapdos, Zapdos, Zapdos..."

Seeing the Zapdos win in a crushing manner, the audience seats instantly boiled over with excitement. The audience's faces turned red with excitement. They shouted at the top of their lungs, and the shouts were like a surging tide, actually drowning out the deafening thunder.

The audience was so enthusiastic and excited that they waved flags and banners in their hands. Some of them even jumped up with excitement. The entire audience was cheering for Zapdos.

"Articuno has lost its ability to fight. Please ask player Darko to take back Articuno and send out the next combat Pokémon." The referee waved the small flag in his hand vigorously, and his voice was clearly transmitted throughout the entire stadium through the loudspeaker, officially announcing the result of the game.

"Zapdos won. Will the next Pokémon sent out by Darko be a Legendary Pokémon?" The host stared at Darko with curiosity and anticipation in his eyes.

This was not because he deliberately stirred up the atmosphere to liven up the atmosphere, but deep down in his heart he really wanted to know whether Darko would send out another legendary Pokémon next time.

"Come back, Articuno." Darko's face was solemn. He held the Poké Ball tightly, his eyes staring straight at Articuno who was unconscious in the mud.

At this moment, his heart was churning, and he finally realized that this time he was not just encountering an opponent, but a real master. The other party not only had the same elves as him, but was even stronger.

Whether it was the sophistication of his tactical command or his calculations to continuously expand his advantage in battle, his opponent had carefully planned every step in advance, one link after another, making it impossible for him to defend himself.

From the beginning, the opponent was careless and used the Agility Bug to suppress Darkrai. And in the battle just now, I didn't expect that the baton-taking technique could be used so cleverly.

Relying solely on its speed and weather advantages, Zapdos firmly took the initiative in the battle. Finally, through close combat, it paralyzed Articuno and finally defeated Articuno with a thunderbolt.

This series of tactical arrangements really made him feel pressured. He was a little careless and had not yet adjusted his mentality of pushing forward all the way. He suffered a great loss when he was not careful.

"Huh..." Darko took a deep breath, trying to calm his panic, then slowly took out the Poké Ball containing Darkrai and threw it out with force.

Although Zapdos is accelerated, it does not have the amazing speed of Nitroworm. Perhaps Darkrai can be used to kill Zapdos and reverse the current unfavorable situation.

"It's Darkrai. Player Darko sends out Darkrai again. Can Zapdos deal with Darkrai's Dark Hole?" The host's voice was full of anticipation and spread throughout the entire stadium through the radio, instantly arousing the audience's tension.

"Darkrai?" When Yu Hai saw Darkrai appearing on the field, he immediately felt that the opponent had run out of tricks.

The outstanding performances of Nitro and Zapdos, one proved that ordinary Pokémon, even if not Legendary Pokémon, possessed extraordinary strength, comparable to Legendary Pokémon, while the other demonstrated his firm determination to no longer hide his identity and step into the spotlight.

The next battle was not that complicated for him. What he had to do was simple and direct. He wanted to "kill the gods" in this game and prove his strength to everyone. The strength of an ordinary elf could also be comparable to that of a legendary elf.

"Dakdo will attack first, and the game continues!" The referee raised the whistle high and blew it hard. The sharp whistle cut through the tense atmosphere in the stadium.

Then he quickly waved the small flag in his hand, officially announcing that the game would continue.

"Zapdos, take the baton..." Yu Hai shouted to Zapdos, continuing to pass on the acceleration. This is the meaning of every Pokémon taking the baton.

"Tsk..." When the Lightning Bird heard the command, it tilted its head and made two reluctant calls with a hint of grievance.

When it saw Yu Hai's eyes full of trust and encouragement, it could only curl its lips helplessly, barked twice, and turned into a ray of light and returned to its Poké Ball. Then another Poké Ball flashed red, and Frogger appeared on the field.

"It's the Fast Stroke Frog. Contestant Yu Hai switched to the Fast Stroke Frog? Can the Fast Stroke Frog deal with Darkrai's Dark Hole?" The host asked the question again. This question also lingered in the minds of the audience, making the atmosphere of the entire stadium more and more tense.

"Swimper? His ace Pokémon?" Darkto frowned slightly, his eyes filled with confusion. He couldn't fathom the deeper meaning behind Yu Hai's actions, but it was undeniable that the information he had previously gathered from various sources showed that Swimper was Yu Hai's most prized Pokémon.

Is it possible that Frog is even more powerful than the powerful Zapdos?

Otherwise, why would Yu Hai bother to substitute him?

What exactly is the other party planning?

Dakodo's mind was filled with a series of questions, and an inexplicable uneasiness surged in his heart.

"Darkrai, Dark Hole!" Darko finally got the first chance to attack, and now he had no time to think and immediately gave the attack order to Darkrai.

In his opinion, no matter what the opponent's intentions are, hypnotizing the opponent's spirit first is undoubtedly the key to controlling the battle situation.

A glimmer of light flashed in Darkrai's deep eyes, and then he slowly raised his hand. A ball of dark energy condensed in his palm, gradually forming a deep dark hole.

It waved its hand suddenly, and the Dark Hole rushed towards the Fast Swimming Frog like a black meteor. Darkrai thought to himself: The agile little bug just now was too fast, and the Dark Hole couldn't hit it at all. This time, this clumsy-looking "tadpole" should not be able to run fast.

"Fast swimming frog, true energy fist, solve it with one blow..." Yu Hai shouted loudly, and after shouting, he looked calm and didn't even bother to watch the game anymore.

After all, it was raining in the arena now, and the speed of the fast swimming frog would double in this kind of weather. He really couldn't understand what his opponent was thinking. Why would he throw the dark hole in this situation? Didn't he even understand the characteristics of the fast swimming frog?

boom--

A loud bang once again thwarted Dakdo's wishful thinking. A circle of water splashed under the feet of the fast-swimming frog, and it disappeared from the spot in an instant like a dragon emerging from the water. The speed was so fast that people didn't even have time to blink.

The fast swimming frog is not slow in the rain, and with the sixth-level speed bonus obtained from the previous baton and the powerful boost brought by the burst of waterfall climbing skills, its speed is extremely fast.

In the blink of an eye, it was like a flash of blue lightning, dodging the attacks of several dark holes in succession.

At the same time, the power in its fist was constantly accumulating, and the accumulation was completed in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, the fast swimming frog came to Darkrai's side, raised his sandbag-sized fist high, and smashed it down on Darkrai's head with an indomitable momentum.

boom--

The huge impact force knocked Darkrai directly onto the energy barrier. The energy barrier was hit hard and shook violently, making a buzzing sound, as if it would break at any time.

Darkrai's body seemed to be embedded in the energy barrier. After a moment, it slowly slid down the energy barrier to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

This time, Darkrai never stood up again. After all, he had been struck head-on by the Chi Fist, which was twice as effective against Fighting-types. The powerful force had knocked him unconscious, leaving him lying motionless on the ground.

"What? Just one hit? Darkrai lost his ability to fight? Frog is so powerful!" The host couldn't help but open his mouth wide when he saw such a shocking scene, and subconsciously blurted out the exclamation in his heart.

"This... is his strongest trump card? His strongest Pokémon is not Bug, nor Zapdos, but this Frog?" Darko stood there in a daze, staring at the unconscious Darkrai with empty eyes, muttering to himself.

At this moment, he felt mixed emotions, full of unwillingness and disbelief. Darkrai, who had originally had high hopes, was so vulnerable in front of this fast-swimming frog that he didn't even have a chance to be hit by the dark hole.

What's worse is that there is not even a chance to be put back into the Poké Ball.

"How amazing! Has Frog become this powerful?" Xiaozhi's eyes flashed with excitement, his eyes full of admiration and yearning for Frog's powerful strength.

He clenched his fists tightly with deep emotion. After all, Darkrai, who had defeated many opponents along the way, was knocked out by the Frog with just one blow. Such strength was really shocking.

"It's really amazing." Xiao Gang nodded slightly, his eyes also showing admiration. He couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder he was able to subdue the three sacred beasts. So that's how it is."

At this moment, he finally understood why those proud three sacred beasts were willing to obey Yu Hai's command. Yu Hai must have subdued them one by one with his powerful strength.

"President, this... this is just the reserve Four Heavenly Kings?" Shirona's face was full of shock, looking at the fast swimming frog in the arena, with disbelief in her eyes.

The scene where Frog easily defeated Darkrai with one punch just now set off a storm in her heart. Facing Frog's attack, her Garchomp had to think twice.

In her opinion, the strength of that fast swimming frog has definitely reached the quasi-champion level, and it is even the top one among the quasi-champion level. What's more, Yu Hai also has an equally powerful quasi-champion level lightning bird.

Shirona thought to herself that the president telling her that Ukai was just a reserve of the Four Heavenly Kings was simply a joke.

You know, in other regions, a trainer with such strength is enough to be the regional champion, but in the Orange Islands, a strong man like Ukai is actually only a reserve of the Four Heavenly Kings, and it is said that he is preparing to open a gym.

Thinking of this, Shirona was full of doubts and wanted to ask President Damalanqi in person what standards the alliance used to select talents.

I really don’t know what those old guys in the league were thinking. They don’t want a trainer like this, but instead chose a Rockets undercover to be one of the Four Heavenly Kings. The Orange Islands are really full of talents.

"Ahem..." President Damalanqi's old face turned red when he saw Shirona's straight gaze. He lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at Shirona.

He knew very well that the league had indeed missed a rare talent, but now that things had come to this, what was the point in saying this?

He sighed helplessly, his heart filled with bitterness. What else could he do...
