Pokémon: Grand Contest: Showdown

Early in the morning, Heimer, who was lying on the floor of Shinji's room, woke up dazed.

And I have to say, waking up from a drunken stupor is incredibly uncomfortable...

"Ah... That's bad... As expected, I can't drink that colorful wine..."

Just as Heimer was thinking this, a drink made with leftover fruit juice was suddenly handed to him.

Seeing this scene, Heimer looked up in confusion.

In an instant, a cold face came into Heimer's sight.

"Shinji?!"

Although he was using his original appearance now, Shinji still had no choice but to remind him after hearing Heimer calling his real name.

"It's Shinji. Drink this, it'll help with the hangover."

As Shinji finished speaking, Heimer looked down at the fruit drink he handed to him.

"Did you take me back last night?"

In response to Heimer's question, Shinji glared at Heimer coldly and then responded in the same tone.

"If you die on the side of the road, then I'll be in trouble."

At this moment, hearing Shinji's answer, Heimer lowered his head and smiled a little awkwardly. Then, Heimer spoke apologetically.

"I'm sorry to bother you like this."

Afterwards, Heimer drank the drink while observing Shinji's room.

Although it is a temporary living room, it seems that Shinji does not like those colorful rainbow elements, so those colorful sheets and beds were replaced by black ones.

At this time, looking at Heimer who had been observing his room, Shinji spoke helplessly.

"Have you finished reading?"

"Ah... Sorry, um, I have to go now."

As soon as Heimer finished speaking, he put down the cup in his hand and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Shinji stood up in front of Heimer and stared at him seriously.

Seeing this, Heimer lowered his head a little scared and spoke in a low voice.

"Ah... well, next time, I'll have a Pokémon battle with you..."

As Heimer finished speaking, Shinji said nothing, but handed the ointment in his hand to Heimer.

Seeing this scene, Heimer asked in confusion.

"What's this?"

In response to Heimer's question, Shinji looked into Heimer's eyes and spoke calmly.

"Medicine that has a healing effect on scars."

Hearing this answer, Heimer looked at Shinji with a little horror.

At this moment, seeing the reaction on Heimer's face, Shinji stuffed the ointment into Heimer's hand and spoke to him.

"If you don't want others to know, then heal the scar as soon as possible."

As soon as Shinji finished speaking, Heimer nodded to Shinji in gratitude, then turned and left Shinji's room.

Not long after, when it was two o'clock in the afternoon, everyone came to Winter's room to start a combat meeting.

"There are only three days left until the Xianyu Conference begins. Not only do you guys not make good use of the time to practice, but you're also going out on the streets and acting crazy."

Facing Winter's rebuke, Heimer not only did not feel any shame, but instead looked at Winter in front of him with a very cold look.

After hearing Lin Dong's lecture, Ling Fei and Qian Sen lowered their heads in embarrassment.

Apart from that, Shi Yan responded with a silly smile.

"Hey, there are still three days left. No matter what Pokémon the opponent sends out, I am confident that I can cut them into pieces."

At this moment, looking at Shi Yan who was very confident in front of him, Lin Dong shook his head helplessly and stared at Shi Yan and said.

"If you approach the Grand Tournament with the same mindset as you would a Pokémon Battle, you'll be instantly crushed to dust by your opponent."

Hearing what Lin Dong said, Shi Yan spoke indifferently.

"It's not that complicated. The rules are similar to those of a Pokémon duel. You win if you kill your opponent."

Facing Shiyan's words, Lindong understood that he could not convince Shiyan with words alone.

Then, Lin Dong chuckled and stared at Shi Yan and spoke.

"It seems you look down on Coordinator Trainers. In that case, how about we fight a Coordinator Trainer like me, using the rules of Pokémon battles?"

At this moment, facing Lindong's invitation, Shiyan had not yet responded, but Lingfei beside him suddenly asked.

"Boss, you! Are you a coordination trainer?!!"

Hearing Ling Fei's question, Lin Dong tilted his head in confusion and then answered.

"You only know it now. I thought you had guessed everything long ago, with your inquisitive nature."

Having said that, Lin Dong raised his head slightly and looked at Heimer, then continued to ask,

“Isn’t it?”

For some reason, Heimer always felt that Lindong's words, "Isn't it?", seemed to be asking Lingfei, but in fact, they were asking him.

Perhaps, Winter had already guessed that Hammer already knew that Winter was a top coordination trainer, so he asked him tentatively here.

At this time, after learning the news that Lin Dong was a coordinating trainer, Shi Yan immediately smiled and spoke.

"I can accept your challenge, Winter."

As soon as Shi Yan finished speaking, Lin Dong smiled softly, turned around, opened the door, and prepared to set off to the public battle venue in Xianyu Town.

Seeing this, everyone in the room stood up and followed.

Not long after, when everyone arrived at the public battle field outside, Shi Yan and Lin Dong slowly walked to the two sides of the battle field.

Immediately afterwards, Ling Fei, the referee, also came to the referee's position.

"The rule is one-on-one, so next, Brother Shiyan, Boss, send out your Pokémon."

At this moment, with Lingfei's order, Shiyan and Lindong took out their Poké Balls at the same time.

Then, Winter threw out the Pokéball with snowflake stickers on it and shouted with a smile.

"Freeze everything, Glaceon!"

In an instant, when the Poké Ball fell to the ground, pure white snow flakes scattered lightly from the Poké Ball along the trajectory of the wind.

After a while, accompanied by the crisp sound of snowflakes falling to the ground, a Glaceon with a body as white as ice walked out from the snow.

Looking at the Glaceon in front of him, Shi Yan confidently threw the Poké Ball in his hand.

At this time, as the white light of the Poké Ball dissipated after it was opened, a strong and powerful Infernape appeared on the battlefield.

"Now then, the duel begins!!"

As soon as Ling Fei finished speaking, Shi Yan immediately started shouting.

"Preemptive strike, Infernape, Flame Fist!"

Hearing Shiyan's instructions, Infernape rushed towards Glaceon and waved his arms on the spot. In the blink of an eye, scorching flames quickly enveloped Infernape's fists.

Seeing this, Winter shouted with ease.

"Condense the ice into a shield!"

As soon as Winter finished speaking, a ray of freezing light that was quickly condensed by Glaceon instantly bloomed into a thick ice shield in front of Glaceon.

Immediately afterwards, there was a bang, and when Infernape's fists hit the ice shield, the flames on his fists were extinguished instantly.

At the same time, the ice shield created by Glaceon using Freeze Beam did not show any cracks due to Infernape's attack.

"In that case, use Flaming Fist continuously!!"

After receiving Shiyan's instructions, Infernape immediately increased the firepower of his fists, and then punched the ice shield again and again.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard Infernape hit, the ice shield still stood intact between Glaceon and Infernape.

Seeing this scene, Shinji, who was watching the game on the side, spoke helplessly.

"You really don't know how to adapt. Can't you just bypass the ice shield and attack Glaceon from above? Your thinking is confused and your actions are reckless. You are really useless."

In response to Shinji's comments, Shiyan angrily shouted at Shinji on the spot.

"What do you know?! I have my own ideas!"

Although, Shiyan was very tough when he returned to Shinji.

However, when Shi Yan turned around and looked at the field, seeing that the ice shield still had no cracks under the continuous blows of the Infernape's Flame Fist, beads of sweat appeared on Shi Yan's face.

At this moment, Heimer also keenly observed that Shiyan's Infernape did not seem to be very good at fire-attribute moves.

Because when Infernape uses his Fire Fist, the flame between his fists keeps getting bigger and smaller, without any control at all.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Heimer remembered what Chang'an had said.

The trick to most fire-attribute moves is to control the heat and burning range of your flames according to the situation on the field, so as to adjust the strength in time.

The key to controlling it is to learn to accumulate some of the power so that that small flame can burst out with astonishing heat at a critical moment.

In addition, if the power of the fire-attribute moves you use is very limited, you need to control the output power of the fire-attribute moves even more.

At this moment, as the flames in Flame Monkey's fists became smaller and smaller, beads of sweat on Flame Monkey's forehead kept dripping to the ground.

Seeing this, Shi Yan immediately shouted.

"In that case, Infernape! We're using the Power-Up Punch!!!"

After hearing Shiyan's instructions, Flame Monkey gathered his strength and hit the thick ice shield with a bang.

In an instant, the ice shield shattered into pieces of ice that fell to the ground.

Fighting-attribute moves are different from Fire-attribute moves. The power of Fire-attribute moves is generally affected by the heat of the flames emitted by the moves.

Fighting-attribute moves are generally affected by the Pokémon's own muscle strength.

At this moment, accompanied by the crisp sound of broken ice falling to the ground, Shi Yan quickly smiled and shouted.

"Now! Use the Power-Up Punch again!!"

As soon as Shiyan finished speaking, Flame Monkey raised his fists and jumped high.

Seeing this scene, Lin Dong smiled slightly, and then she shouted with a smile.

"Now, Glaceon, Snow Bewilderment!"

After receiving Winter's instructions, the cold ice and snow dispersed from Glaceon's mouth as he shouted.

In an instant, the broken ice on the ground was all swept up by the flying blizzard in the sky, and Infernape was caught off guard and trapped in the white ice and snow tornado.

After that, the broken ice swirling in the snowflakes violently hit the Infernape continuously as the blizzard flowed.

At this moment, looking at Infernape whose enhanced punch was interrupted, Shi Yan immediately shouted unwillingly.

"I can't give up!! Infernape!!! Flame Fist!!!"

In response to Shiyan's instructions, Infernape, who was in the center of the blizzard tornado, quickly raised his fists. However, because the temperature around Infernape was too cold, the temperature between Infernape's fists could not be raised to a very high level.

At this moment, when the broken ice in the blizzard hit Infernape's chest continuously, Infernape squatted on the ground, covering its chest with its hands in pain.

Seeing this, Winter seized the opportunity and shouted quickly.

"Glaceon!! Soul Chaser Ice Rain!"

As soon as Winter finished speaking, an extremely cold breath of ice poured out from Glaceon's mouth.

Then, when the icy air attached to the broken ice swirls above the snowstorm, the broken ice seemed to have souls, condensing into ice arrows and attacking the vital points of the Flame Monkey at a high speed.

In a moment, as the ice arrow hit the vital part of Infernape, the tornado formed by the blizzard also dissipated.

At this time, as the snowflakes fell from the sky, Flame Monkey fell to the ground and lost his ability to fight.

In the blink of an eye, looking at the Infernape covered in frost, Shi Yan cried out sadly on the spot.

"Flame Monkey!!!"

After a while, when Shiyan ran to the side of Flame Monkey, Lindong stepped forward and spoke seriously.

"Do you understand? Whether as a Coordinator Trainer or as a Pokémon Trainer, you have very important things to learn. So, treat this Grand Tournament well."

After she finished speaking, Winter took back the Glaceon, and then she spoke to everyone.

"Let's go, let's continue the meeting."
