Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

"Flying Leaf Storm!"

Following Cen Zhi's roar, the monarch snake quickly stretched out its slender neck like a ignited rocket.

In an instant, countless green leaves seemed to be driven by an invisible force, spinning wildly and forming a huge tornado.

The tornado swept towards Lin Yi at an astonishing speed, as if it was going to swallow him up.

Faced with this sudden attack, Lin Yi did not hesitate at all. He immediately shouted, "Protect!"

Before he finished his words, Gyarados's huge body suddenly blocked Lin Yi's way like an indestructible wall.

It opened a transparent protective shield and protected Lin Yi tightly behind it.

However, those countless green leaves smashed into Gyarados's protective shield like a rainstorm. Although they were blocked, they were also blown to both sides by the powerful impact force.

These green leaves were like layers of green gauze, completely blocking Lin Yi's vision.

At this moment, Yun Shang and Xiao Yichen issued orders almost at the same time:

"Water Pledge!" "Grass Pledge!"

The Sniper Tree Owl and the Sea Lion immediately responded to their master's orders. They flapped their wings and tails respectively, releasing powerful grass-type energy fluctuations and water-type energy fluctuations.

The two energies intertwined and blended strangely under Lin Yi's feet. The ground instantly cracked into spider-web-like ripples, and a giant energy vortex with a diameter of ten meters formed as the mud surged.

Seeing this, the Fossil Pterosaur and the Fiery Roaring Tiger pounced on Lin Yi without hesitation, wanting to protect him.

The Fiery Roaring Tiger even used its body to hold Lin Yi firmly under it, and used its fur to protect him from possible harm.

However, the energies of the Grass Oath and the Water Oath merged together the moment they came into contact with the Fossil Pterosaur and the Blazing Roaring Tiger.

This fused energy was like a raging torrent, instantly submerging Lin Yi and his Pokémon.

Under the impact of this powerful energy, the ground immediately turned into a wet wetland. Lin Yi and his Pokémon's legs were deeply stuck in it, unable to extricate themselves.

Lu Xinghui saw this perfect opportunity and gave Hu Di an order without hesitation: "Strengthen your mind!"

Hu Di immediately raised the hot spring in his hand, and a huge wave of superpowers, like an invisible giant hand tearing the leaf barrier, swept towards Lin Yi like a raging tsunami.

However, just as Hu Di's powerful mental power was about to hit, Lin Yi curled up the corner of his mouth in a sneer.

"Exchange venues!"

The supernatural light at Gardevoir's fingertips suddenly flashed, and the lavender halo swept across the entire venue at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The next second, the figures of Lin Yi, Gyarados and others disappeared from the spot, and were replaced by Cen Zhi and his four companions who were trapped in the mud. The wetland under their feet was still bubbling, but their faces were full of fear.

The tactics used against Lin Yi just now now left them in a cage with nowhere to escape.

"Bah!"

The monarch snake's eyes suddenly widened and became bloodshot, while the sniper tree owl and western lion sea serpent nearby also hurriedly shouted loudly.

Seeing this, Alakazam instinctively wanted to use the "Exchange of Venues" move to avoid the upcoming attack.

However, Gardevoir had already charged its power for a long time in advance, and its level was higher than Alakazam. Alakazam was unable to successfully use the "Exchange Venue" before its own psychic power hit its trainer.

Cen Zhi and others had never expected that Lin Yi would have such a sophisticated tactical arrangement. Their feet were stuck tightly in the wet ground and they could not break free for a while. They had no way of escaping this sudden attack.

At this critical moment, Serpentine used "Draft", Owloo launched "Raid", Hiren performed "Water Jet", and Alakazam used "Teleport".

The four Pokémon rushed to their respective trainers as fast as lightning in their own unique way, and used their bodies to block the deadly mental power without hesitation.

"Flame jets, water cannons, rock collapses, magic flashes!"

Lin Yi stretched out his hand expressionlessly and snapped his fingers crisply.

Following this crisp sound, four powerful skills of different attributes rushed in from all directions like surging waves, and pounced straight towards Cen Zhi and the other three.

"boom--!"

The mud was lifted into the air by the air wave, and the earthquake-proof floor of the training room cracked into spider-web-like patterns.

The monarch snake curled up in Cen Zhi's arms, its vine shield scorched black by the high temperature, and the sniper tree owl's wings drooped limply, with debris from the rockslide still on its feathers.

Several scales of the Western Lion Sea Lion fell off, emitting a pale light in the mud and water. Alakazam's soup spoon broke into two pieces, and the fluctuations of super powers had completely dissipated.

When the smoke cleared, the four Pokémon were lying in the mud, their eyes turned into mosquito coils.

Cen Zhi wiped the mud off his face, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Captain, this move of yours... is too sinister, isn't it?"

"Just tactics."

Lin Yi shook off the mud that splashed on his sleeves, and Gardevoir handed him a clean handkerchief at the right time, "In actual combat, anticipating the opponent's prediction is the key."

"Four against one, and we haven't won yet..."

Xiao Yichen stared at the Pokémon lying in the mud, debris from the rockfall still falling off his face.

When Lin Yi proposed the "one-on-four" training, he secretly laughed at this kid for being ignorant of the immensity of the world, and even thought about letting the monarch snake retain some strength.

The current situation made him realize that Lin Yi had the capital to be arrogant. As one of the only two candidates for the top spot in the team, Xiao Yichen was speechless.

"so amazing……"

Lu Xinghui's eyes lit up, "Captain, how did you find out that I was going to attack you by surprise?"

"You've been hiding behind the tactical table since the start of the game."

Lin Yi wiped the mud off his cuffs with a wet towel. "The three of them charged forward desperately, but your Hu Di didn't make a move. You kept measuring the distance. It was too obvious that you wanted to wait for the right moment to launch a sneak attack."

Cen Zhi rubbed the bruises on his lower back and sighed half-jokingly: "At this rate, you will be able to challenge for the Four Heavenly Kings seat next year, right?"

"Not even close."

Lin Yi shook his head and shrugged, "I can't beat my dad at all now."

"You're only nineteen!"

Yun Chang protested with her hands on her hips, mud still dripping from the ends of her hair, "King Lin is a monster, how can we ordinary people compare to him?"

Lin Yi smiled and didn't say anything. He patted the thick chest muscles of the Blazing Tiger with his palm. After a flash of red light, he took the four fighting Pokémon back into the Poké Ball.

He walked to the healing device in the corner of the training room and placed the Poké Balls into the slots one by one.

"Thank you for your hard work. You two can fight each other."

He pulled off his mud-soaked tactical belt and casually draped it over the back of a chair. "I'll take a break."

Upon hearing this, Cen Zhi and others nodded, and each recalled the Pokémon that had lost their combat ability and placed them on adjacent treatment devices.

Lu Xinghui's Alakazam was still holding the broken soup spoon listlessly. She touched its head distressedly and took out another Poké Ball: "Come on, let's practice mind interference with Miss Goth."

Lin Yi slumped in the observation seat, his eyes sweeping over the staff who were debugging the venue in the center of the training ground.
