As a trainer, he has the rain trait

competition is over.

The cheers from the stands and the silence from the players' seats formed a sharp contrast.

The improvement brought by Mega Evolution was so obvious that the teams watching the game didn't know how to respond.

Zhilin looked at the messy field and suddenly turned to ask his two teammates in a low voice, "Can you withstand the attack of three people?"

As he also mastered Mega Evolution, he naturally would not worry about not being able to deal with Mega Garchomp. However, he couldn't help but worry when he saw how Wu Zhao and the others dealt with it. As he also had a preliminary grasp of Mega Evolution, he also needed time to prepare before completing Mega Evolution. Without the help of Pokémon, it would be difficult for Dragonite to evolve in a multiplayer melee.

However, Xu Wu and Zhu Yu's Pokémon are both fragile and unlikely to block the opponent's blockade like Armored Bird and Metagross, so they asked.

Zhu Yu shook his head, "Mumu can only prevent one Pokémon from affecting you!"

Xu Wu was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Geng Gui might be able to hold two of them back for a few seconds, long enough for you to evolve?"

Zhilin thought for a moment and said, "Five seconds will be enough!"

"Five seconds... I'll try!"

After receiving Xu Wu's reply, Zhilin sighed softly. It seemed that the training for Mega Evolution would have to continue, and the time it took to mobilize the resonance of the emotional bond would have to be shortened...

The next day, January 17th, was the 49th day of winter, the coldest period of the year.

Zhilin followed the local customs and wore a military coat on stage, but in fact it was to cover up the key stone embedded in his belt.

None of the teams competing for the quarterfinals had it easy, and he was ready to use this trump card.

Their opponent is the 'Who Else Team' that advanced step by step from the qualifiers and is called one of the two dark horses of this year's Phoenix Cup by netizens.

Captain Luo Lin, Pokémon: Shrimp, Clam.

Team member Jingge, Pokémon: Crystal Lamp Spirit.

Team member Bi Xuesong, Pokémon: Roserade.

Competition preparation.

Xu Wu stood at one side of the venue, his posture as straight as a pine tree.

Jing Ge also exuded an imposing presence, his blue down jacket highlighting his composure and confidence. Beside him, a crystal lamplight spirit emanated a faint blue light, its mysterious flames swaying gracefully.

Xu Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, waved his right hand lightly, and a flash of purple light passed by, and Gengar quietly appeared on the field. Gengar's purple figure exuded a strange aura under the light, which made people shudder.

The referee gave the order, and the battle began instantly. Jingge launched the first attack, his eyes fixed as he shouted, "Crystal Lantern, Spray Flame!" Crystal Lantern immediately responded to the trainer's command, its flames blazing fiercely, transforming into a blazing torrent that swept towards Gengar.

Xu Wu, however, remained unfazed. He calmly watched the incoming flames, his lips curling slightly. "Geng'gui, Shadow Clone!" Following his command, Gengar instantly transformed into countless purple figures, darting across the field. The flames' impact missed, striking one phantom after another.

Jingge frowned, but remained undaunted. He commanded again, "Crystal Lantern Spirit, Wave of Evil!" The flames on the Crystal Lantern Spirit instantly transformed into a faint blue light, and a wave of light swept across the entire field. While expanding the attack range significantly reduced the attack power, it was enough to expose Gengar's true form.

Xu Wu's heart trembled. He hadn't expected the opponent to have such a high level of mastery over the "Evil Wave" technique, so he abandoned his passive defense. "Geng Gui, Shadow Ball!" Gengar immediately condensed a massive Shadow Ball and hurled it towards the Crystal Lantern. The Shadow Ball whistled through the air, carrying with it a powerful dark force.

The Crystal Lamp Spirit showed no fear. It opened its mouth and spit out a stream of blazing flames, which collided with the Shadow Ball. With a loud bang, the impact of the energy shook the entire venue.

As the smoke gradually cleared, Crystal Lantern and Gengar stood there unharmed. Jing Ge and Xu Wu's eyes were filled with vigilance, knowing that the battle had just begun.

Jingge decided to change his tactics. He whispered to the Crystal Lamp Spirit, "Use hypnosis." A mysterious light flashed in the Crystal Lamp Spirit's eyes, and an invisible wave spread towards Gengar.

Xu Wu immediately sensed the danger and shouted, "Geng'er, you're making noise!" Gengar's eyes flickered with a sly glint, a faint smile playing on his lips as he leaped up and gave the Crystal Lamp Spirit a massive slap. The hypnotic wave struck Gengar, but it had no effect on him.

Crystal Lampfire stood there in a daze. Gengar gave it a big slap. Can you imagine how much psychological damage a slap would cause to a little one who had only been born for a little over a year? Crystal Lampfire's yellow eyes were filled with tears like lamp oil.

Xu Wu seized the opportunity and ordered again, "Geng Gui, swap characteristics!" A strange black aura emanated from Gengar's body, which quickly enveloped the Crystal Lamp Spirit. The Crystal Lamp Spirit's movements suddenly became sluggish, and the flames on its body dimmed significantly.

Xu Wu sighed with regret at this. "Body of Fire!" It's a pity that he didn't use fire-inducing techniques. That way, he wouldn't be afraid of the opponent's fire-attribute moves.

Jing Ge was shocked. He hadn't expected Gengar's "Noise" to be used in this way. He hurriedly shouted, "Crystal Lamp Spirit, don't be wronged, fight back!"

However, after Xu Wu finished his regret, he decisively ordered: "Geng Gui, the final blow, Shadow Ball!" Gengar once again condensed a huge Shadow Ball and threw it at the Crystal Lamp Spirit with all his strength. The Shadow Ball hit the Crystal Lamp Spirit with unstoppable force.

The crystal lamp fire spirit wailed in pain and fell to the ground. Jing Ge watched this scene in shock. He couldn't believe that his crystal lamp fire spirit was defeated so easily.

Xu Wu smiled wickedly, gently stroked Gengar's head and said, "Well done, Gengar." Gengar shook his body proudly.

Zhilin, who was sitting in the audience, felt a chill run down his spine and complained, "He used a perfectly good move in such an insulting way!"

Zhu Yu, who was standing by, held his forehead with his hand and said, "As expected of him!"

After Zhilin finished complaining, he went on stage and saw Jingge, who was leaving the stage, saying a few words angrily to the captain Luo Lin. He must have wanted Luo Lin to get back at him. Luo Lin nodded and went on stage.

This made him feel helpless. Why should he pay for the sins committed by Xu Wu?

After going on stage, Luo Lin appeared very calm and composed, without revealing anything. He released his Pokémon: Tarpon. Tarpon stood majestically in place, its huge claws gleaming with metallic luster, its body reflecting a cold light in the sun. It shook its body slightly, waiting for the trainer's order.

The referee gave the order and the fight officially began.

Luo Lin snapped his fingers, and a mysterious power emerged from his body.

Zhilin's expression froze. This was the power of waveguide!

Luo Lin actually has the talent to cultivate the power of waveguides. The power of waveguides can work perfectly with the cannon arm shrimp to bring out the maximum power of its characteristic super launcher.

Therefore, Zhilin chose to wait and see.

Seeing Zhilin choose a defensive stance, Luo Lin chuckled and used the power of waveguide to communicate with the Cannonball. The Cannonball immediately understood the trainer's intention, opened its huge claws, and a powerful stream of water shot out, shooting towards the Thunder Dragon like a cannonball.

Although the Electric type restrains the Water type, it is normal damage for the Water type to hit the Electric type. Luo Lin chose to let the Cannon Arm Shrimp use the "Water Cannon" move that has the bonus of this type to test the waters.

Seeing this, Zhilin hurriedly shouted, "Electric Dragon, get out of the way!" The Electric Dragon dodged sideways, barely avoiding the Cannon Shrimp's attack. However, Luo Lin didn't give the Electric Dragon a chance to breathe. He once again unleashed his wave power, commanding the Cannon Shrimp to fire a continuous stream of "water cannons." In the arena, the sound of the water cannons roared like a waterfall, splashing the ground in a cascade of water. The surrounding air seemed to become moistened by the powerful torrent.

The Electric Dragon continued to dodge the attacks of the Cannon Shrimp, appearing somewhat powerless. Zhilin knew that this could not continue, he had to fight back.

"Electric Dragon, use one hundred thousand volts!"

The lightning dragon stopped dodging and immediately unleashed a powerful burst of electricity. A blinding bolt of lightning struck the cannon shrimp. Lightning crackled across the sky, and the air was filled with a strong sense of electricity. The cannon shrimp had no time to dodge and was struck by the 100,000 volts. Its body trembled slightly, and the electricity ran through it, making a sizzling sound.

Damn! What a great opportunity.

Zhilin took the opportunity to let the electric dragon set up an electric field while charging and preparing for the next attack.

Luo Lin, however, remained calm and used the power of the waveguide once again. The Cannon Shrimp instantly recovered, and its aura became even more powerful.

"Cannon Shrimp, use Wave Missile!"

A massive blue energy ball condensed on the Cannon Shrimp's claws, its powerful energy wave causing the surrounding air to tremble. The waveguide merged with the wave power emanating from Luo Lin's body and launched fiercely at such speed that the Electric Dragon had no time to dodge and was hit hard. The Electric Dragon let out a painful roar and shook several times.

Seeing that Dianlong was seriously injured, Zhilin felt nervous and quickly encouraged Dianlong, "Dianlong, stay calm, we can win!" When Dianlong heard his master's encouragement, his fighting spirit remained undiminished, and the electricity in his body surged again, responding to Zhilin.

Seeing that the lightning dragon had not been defeated, Luo Lin couldn't help but look at Zhilin and the lightning dragon with new eyes. He decided to use all his strength to end this battle as soon as possible. So, he once again used the power of wave guide, perfectly combining it with the super launcher feature of the steel cannon arm shrimp, and launched a series of powerful wave-type moves.

Within the arena, Wave Missile, Water Wave, Dragon Wave, and other attacks continuously assaulted the Electric Dragon, placing it in a state of great peril. The light from these wave-type attacks illuminated the entire arena, and the powerful energy shockwaves caused the ground to tremble slightly. At this moment, the surrounding grass, affected by this powerful energy, was swept up.

Zhilin frowned, decided to take a gamble, and shouted, "Lightning Dragon, use Thunder!"

Upon hearing this, the electric dragon roared towards the sky, raised its forelimbs, and the electricity in its body began to surge wildly. Electric arcs kept jumping and flashing around its body, making crackling sounds. Its tail was also raised high, and the gem on the tip was shining, like a magic wand, mobilizing the electrical elements in the air.

As the power of the electric dragon gathered, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and a huge bolt of lightning fell from the sky, like an angry dragon, roaring towards the Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp.

“Sizzle~Snap!”

At the moment the lightning struck, a strong electric current accompanied by a dazzling light, and the air was instantly ionized, making a crackling sound. The lightning's accompanying electric current also blasted large craters into the ground, sending dirt and rocks flying everywhere. The powerful force was terrifying.

The Cannon Shrimp felt this terrifying force and tried to dodge, but the lightning was too fast. At this critical moment, Luo Lin hurriedly used the power of waveguide to try to block some of the attack for the Cannon Shrimp.

However, the power of the electric dragon's thunder move was too great. Although the steel cannon arm shrimp reduced some damage with the help of Luo Lin, it was still hit by the lightning, flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.

At this moment, the battlefield was silent, and everyone was shocked by the powerful moves of the Electric Dragon.

The bet was successful!

Zhilin took the opportunity to shout: "Electric Dragon, now is the time for us to fight back! Use 100,000 volts!" The Electric Dragon immediately released a powerful lightning, with unparalleled power, sweeping towards the Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp.

The paralyzed Cannon Shrimp still had no time to dodge and was struck by the 100,000-volt attack, sinking its body into the ground and unable to rise again. Luo Lin quickly admitted defeat and ran over to check on the Cannon Shrimp's injuries.

Zhilin breathed a sigh of relief. The wave move of the Steelgrass, which was doubly enhanced by the power of wave and the characteristic super launcher, brought great defensive pressure to him and the Dragonite. Fortunately, the first 100,000 volts successfully paralyzed the Steelgrass, reducing its evasion ability. Fortunately, the thunder successfully hit and dealt a heavy blow to the Steelgrass, otherwise he would have to expose his Mega evolution in advance to win this game.

After this battle, Zhilin and the others already knew the weakness of the Cannon Arm Shrimp: its attack was extremely strong and it was impossible to defend against it.

Having mastered this, the rest of the game was relatively easy for them. Only the continuous attack feature of the thorny shell caused them some trouble after using the "shell breaking" move.

The Thorny Shell's ice cone was like a machine gun, pure fire suppression, but it was still killed by Gengar.

I can only say that the opponents are quite biased, and all the attribute points are added to attack. What does this mean? The best defense is attack?

The sharp-tongued Xu Wu even commented, "They'll be hard to beat from now on! Ultimate attacks? Just clowns!"

Indeed, no one noticed their poor defense before because they were constantly attacked by them and had little ability to resist. Now they have fallen into the loser group, and other teams will definitely choose to fight back. It’s true that your attack is stronger than mine, but you can’t withstand it like me!

At the end of the game, 'Chengfeng Team' beat 'Who Else Team' 6:0. It is quite rare to shut out the opponent in a game.

This made Xu Wu, who was still worried about the game yesterday, become a little arrogant. "The quarterfinals! My opponents are getting worse and worse now. I can kill them all!"

Zhilin rolled his eyes and poured a basin of cold water on me, "We're only in the quarterfinals for now. Don't let your arrogance get the better of you. If you lose the next game, or lose again in the loser's bracket, you'll be eliminated from the quarterfinals!"

Xu Wu put his arm around Zhilin's shoulder and said with a smile, "And you guys! We're so strong, it's hard for us to lose!"

Zhilin was helpless and planned to go back and let Su Muzhe talk to him. Now only the siblings could suppress his arrogance.

Although he also felt that he would not lose.
