As a trainer, he has the rain trait

Before the whistle blew, Zhilin stood at one end of the field, his heartbeat accelerating involuntarily, a mixture of nervousness and excitement. He knew the importance of this battle, not just for honor, but also to live up to his and the Electric Dragon's efforts.

At the other end of the field, Hua Longting appeared calm and composed. Beside him stood a majestic, awe-inspiring scaly-armored dragon. Its powerful frame exuded a powerful aura, its scales gleaming metallically in the sunlight.

Zhilin took a deep breath and broke the silence first. "Hualongting, I considered you my imaginary enemy during the round of 16, but I didn't expect to encounter you so late. Today we can finally see whether your Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon is more powerful, or my Electric Dragon."

Hua Longting smiled slightly and responded: "Okay, I am also looking forward to this battle. Let's see who is the real strong one."

The chief referee waited for the two men to finish talking before blowing the whistle. With a "wooo" sound, the fight was about to begin.

Zhilin decisively ordered: "Dragonite, use 100,000 Volts!" The current on Dragonite's body suddenly surged, and a powerful electric current shot towards the Scaled Dragon, flashing a dazzling light in the air. As an electric move, 100,000 Volts has a great inhibitory effect on Water and Flying Pokémon, but against Dragon and Fighting Pokémon like Scaled Dragonite, the effect will be weakened. However, the bonus of Dragonite's original attribute makes up for this.

Hua Longting calmly commanded, "Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, use Dragon Claw." The dragon roared, raised its powerful claws, and with a flash of golden light, the claws and the 100,000-volt electricity collided in mid-air. The current and the claws canceled each other out, leaving neither side gaining an advantage.

Seeing this, Zhilin immediately changed his tactics: "Lightning Dragon, use Dragon Wave." Lightning Dragon took a deep breath, condensed a powerful Dragon Wave from his mouth, and then violently expelled it. The Dragon Wave roared towards the Staff Tail Scaled Dragon, and wherever it passed, the air seemed to be distorted.

Zhilin had the Lightning Dragon use Dragon-type moves, hoping to use their stats to counter the Armored Dragon. However, Dragon-type moves seemed to have little effect on the Dragon-type, only causing minor injuries.

Zhilin was puzzled, but he didn't give up and let the electric dragon release the dragon wave again.

Hua Longting chuckled and ordered again, "Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, use Scale Noise." The scales on the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon began to vibrate, emitting a piercing noise. The Scale Noise and Dragon Wave met in mid-air, triggering another powerful impact.

But it is obvious that the scale noise, which is the exclusive move of the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, is more powerful. It directly disperses the dragon's wave, but still retains considerable power to attack the electric dragon.

Zhilin's eyes glared, "Electric Dragon, Substitute!"

The poor electric dragon doll appeared and blocked the dangerous sound wave.

Long Aotian's expression changed in the audience, and he exclaimed in shock: "Oh no! This Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon has been blessed by the Imperial Dragon!"

"What blessing?" Zuo Tingyun asked with a frown.

"Dragon Blessing, the method used by the Dragon Clan to protect their descendants from entering dragon nests and capturing Pokémon, can weaken the restraining effect of Dragon-type moves on Dragon-type Pokémon."

"Have you resorted to this method? How long can it last?"

"For one hour, blessings can only be bestowed in the Yulong Clan's territory."

"It took half an hour to get here, half an hour to get the match started, and another hour to finish the match. They're really well prepared!"

Su Muzhe asked in confusion: "Isn't this considered a foul?"

"Not really!" Xu Qingyan said, "According to the alliance regulations, blessings are also allowed."

"King Xu?" Xu Qingyan's sudden arrival surprised everyone.

"You guys are close, I'll come over and take a look!" Everyone suddenly realized.

"Actually, there's no need to worry too much. Once you use the blessing, you're not allowed to bring items. Besides, the blessing can be consumed. You see, Zhilin has also discovered this."

After hearing Xu Qingyan's words, everyone turned their attention back to the field.

On the battlefield, the two sides exchanged blows, the battle entering a fierce stage. As expected, the Electric Dragon continued to use Dragon Wave and other Dragon-type moves, while the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, no longer indifferent to Dragon-type moves as it had at the beginning, chose to respond one by one with moves like Dragon Claw and Scale Noise. The waves and noises intertwined, and the dust on the grass flew up.

Zhilin observed the situation, secretly pondering a countermeasure. Although he didn't understand the opponent's method, the effectiveness of this method had weakened. He couldn't continue in this stalemate. He had to find a way to suppress the opponent.

"Dragonite, use electromagnetic waves to disrupt Scyther's movements," Zhilin shouted. Dragonite immediately unleashed electromagnetic waves, an invisible force striking Scyther's direction. While electromagnetic waves aren't a direct attack, they can disrupt an opponent's movements, making them an effective tactic against a Pokémon like Scyther that relies on speed and strength.

The electromagnetic wave struck the Armored Dragon, causing it to tremble slightly and become somewhat sluggish. Hua Longting's heart tightened, but he remained unfazed. "Armored Dragon, cheer up! Motivate yourself!" the dragon roared, its body enveloped in a shimmering light.

Zhilin continued barking orders, not giving the dragon a chance to rest. "Electric Dragon, 100,000 volts." A powerful electric current instantly rushed towards the dragon.

"Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, let's use Dragon Wave too!"

The lightning collided with the dragon's waves, and the lightning lasted for a few seconds before dissipating. The moves used by the strengthened Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon were still superior.

The electric dragon dodged quickly, but the dragon wave was so fast that it still grazed its body. The electric dragon let out a cry of pain and its body trembled slightly, but its eyes were still full of determination.

Zhilin did not back down either. "Dianlong, don't give up. Use the electromagnetic cannon."

Upon hearing the command, the electric current in the dragon's body surged again, gathering at its fingertips. It took a deep breath, concentrating all its strength into this strike, and fired a stream of electricity even more powerful than before at the staff-tailed scaly dragon.

Hua Longting also felt the powerful force of this attack, his expression tightened and he said: "Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, use all your strength to make scale noise." The scales on the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon vibrated wildly, making an unprecedented powerful noise.

The electromagnetic cannon and the scaly noise collided again, and the entire venue was shaken by the powerful force. The lightning and the noise intertwined, making it almost impossible to open your eyes.

As the smoke and dust from the flashes and noise gradually dissipated, a shocking scene unfolded. The electric dragon rested on its hands, its body flickering faintly with electricity. The staff-tailed scaly dragon, while still standing, appeared exhausted, its scales somewhat damaged.

The choices of both sides are surprisingly similar. Not only do they use their moves to collide with each other, but they also direct the aftermath to attack the opposing Pokémon. It all comes down to who can withstand it!

Zhilin was anxious, the situation was not optimistic!

The electric dragon gasped for a few breaths, gritted its teeth and stood up. Although it was seriously injured, it had not lost its combat ability and could still fight.

Zhilin felt distressed, but looking at the electric dragon's resolute back, he also understood its thoughts.

"Okay, let's fight again! Electric Dragon, 100,000 volts." Zhilin ordered loudly, using the volume to cover up his emotions.

The electric current in the electric dragon surged again, gathering into a bolt of lightning and rushing towards the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon.

Hua Longting's eyes narrowed, and he quickly ordered: "Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, use dragon breath." The Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon opened its mouth and spit out a powerful dragon breath.

The Volt attack and dragon breath collided in the air, causing another strong impact.

Immediately, the Armored Dragon flew closer. Zhilin frowned and quickly asked the Electric Dragon to use electromagnetic levitation to float in the air to avoid the close attack of the Armored Dragon. The Electric Dragon could not be hurt again.

"Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, use Dragon Dance." Seeing he couldn't get close, Hua Longting immediately changed his mind and ordered the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon to strengthen. The Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon leaped up, dancing in the air, increasing its attack and speed.

The lightning dragon circled in the air, searching for an opportunity. "Lightning dragon, use thunder," Zhilin ordered. The sky instantly became overcast with dark clouds, and a thick bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking the staff-tailed scaly-armored dragon.

Luck was on its side. Although the dragon quickly dodged, the lightning still struck it. The dragon roared, its scales gleaming even brighter, clearly enraged.

"Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, use Dragon Star Cluster." Hua Longting shouted the order. The Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon raised its head and roared. Countless meteors instantly appeared in the sky and smashed towards the Lightning Dragon.

The electric dragon was not very fast to begin with, and it was in the air, making it even more difficult to dodge. It was hit by several meteors and fell to the ground, but it quickly pushed away the meteorite pieces on its body and stood up again.

A trace of pity flashed across Hua Longting's eyes, but he still commanded: "Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, close combat!"

"Lightning Dragon, hold on," Zhilin ordered. A light shield formed in front of the Lightning Dragon, blocking the Staff-Tailed Scaled Dragon's advance. The Lightning Dragon took this opportunity to distance itself.

Without their last means of defense, Zhilin and Dianlong only had one last choice. Zhilin exchanged glances with Dianlong, who turned back, and nodded, shouting, "Then let's have the final blow. Thunder!"

The sky was covered with dark clouds again, and a huge bolt of lightning struck the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon.

"Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, hold on." Hua Longting didn't dare to gamble that the opponent wouldn't be able to hit him, so he chose to defend. A layer of light appeared on the body of the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon, resisting the lightning attack.

However, the power of thunder and lightning was too strong, and the Thunder Dragon used desperately not only successfully hit the target, but also broke through the defense and hit the Staff-tailed Scaled Dragon.

The blinding light faded, and the lightning dragon collapsed to the ground, exhausted, unable to stand up again. While the staff-tailed scaly dragon was still standing, it was already covered in wounds and shaky.

Zhilin and Hua Longting were silent for a moment, then walked towards their Pokémon at the same time.

"You and the electric dragon are both very tenacious and are worthy opponents." Hua Longting took back the staff-tailed scaly dragon and said to Zhilin.

Zhilin looked at the commemorative ball with heartache and replied: "In the next game, the electric dragon and I will get back at it." Then he hurried off the stage to treat the electric dragon.

Hua Longting watched him hurriedly leave the stage, remained silent for a moment, and murmured: "Did Mega Evolution give you confidence? But my Z move is also very powerful!"

......

Floating sea bases.

The TV hanging on the wall was playing a replay of the battle between Zhilin and Hua Longting.

Qinglong tapped the table with his fingertips and said, "The plan faces a problem. With the appearance of the Phoenix Emperor, these two teams will definitely attract official attention. I'm worried that with the protection of the Heavenly King, even Old Man Mei from Jingchu University will come. Now we have two choices: one is to give up, and the other is to increase manpower and strike with thunder!"

Xuanwu sneered, "So what if he's the Heavenly King? It's not like we can't defeat him!"

Jiao Mu Jiao said worriedly, "If they all come out, the base will be exposed! The benefits won't outweigh the risks!"

Xuanwu frowned when he heard this. This base not only held a lot of rare Pokémon, but was also a supply station. It was really not worth it for a few Pokémon.

Qinglong glanced at the TV and said, "If they can win the championship and get the Rainbow Feather, it will be worth it."

Xuanwu looked at him in surprise. "The Yinglong plan has encountered many obstacles, and you are still targeting Fenghuang?"

"The effect is the same anyway, so we can do it simultaneously and have multiple options!"

"also!"

......

The following game was also very fierce. Gengar and Dragon Ball were both ghost-type. After fighting for half an hour, Gengar won the victory with the slight advantage brought by the poison.

Although Zhu Yu and the Wind Fairy were suppressed by the Double Axe War Dragon at the beginning, they were still able to fight with it.

However, when Long Yue used the Heart of the Dragon to assist the evolution of the Double Axe War Dragon bond, the situation on the battle took a sharp turn for the worse.

"Double Axe War Dragon, bond evolution!" Long Yue shouted loudly.

The Twin Axe War Dragon's body glowed brightly, and it began to transform. Its already tall frame grew even larger, and its twin axes transformed into giant axes, becoming even sharper. Its scales shimmered with a mysterious light.

The evolved double-axe war dragon was imposing and stepped forward. The wind fairy felt a huge pressure and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Zhu Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Wind Fairy, hold on!" A layer of transparent shield appeared on the wind fairy's body, trying to resist the attack of the double-axe war dragon.

Long Yue didn't give the Wind Fairy any chance. "Double Axe War Dragon, use Dragon Tail Sweep!" The Double Axe War Dragon swung its tail violently, and a powerful force swept towards the Wind Fairy. The dragon's tail was so fast that the Wind Fairy had no time to dodge.

The shield was instantly broken, and the wind fairy was hit by the dragon's tail and fell heavily to the ground. It struggled to stand up, but was unable to do anything.

Zhu Yu looked at the Wind Fairy with distress, but he still refused to give up. "Wind Fairy, cheer up! Use Energy Ball!" The Wind Fairy endured the pain, condensed a green energy ball, and threw it at the Double Axe War Dragon.

Long Yue's eyes glared. "Double Axe Dragon, use Rock Slide!" With a roar, the ground around him instantly crumbled, sending huge boulders flying towards the Wind Fairy. The energy ball and the boulders collided mid-air, triggering another powerful explosion.

The Wind Fairy was teetering on the brink of collapse in the aftermath of the explosion. Zhu Yu anxiously shouted, "Wind Fairy, use the Parasitic Seeds!" The Wind Fairy shot out several seeds, which flew towards the Double Axe War Dragon. The seeds landed on the Double Axe War Dragon, quickly took root and sprouted, and began to absorb its energy.

Long Yue frowned slightly. "Double Axe Dragon, earthquake!" Double Axe Dragon stomped his feet, causing the ground to shake violently. The parasitic seeds were knocked off by the earthquake, and the wind goblin was also shaken to the ground.

"Wind Fairy, cotton defense!" Zhu Yu hurriedly ordered. The Wind Fairy grew a thick layer of cotton on its body, trying to resist the attack of the Double Axe War Dragon.

"Double Axe Dragon, Dragon Breath!" Long Yue shouted. The Double Axe Dragon opened its mouth and released a powerful breath. The breath struck the cotton-like defense, weakening it somewhat but still breaking through and striking the Wind Fairy.

The Wind Fairy fell to the ground again, her breath weak. Zhu Yu's eyes welled up slightly, but she knew she couldn't give up now. "Wind Fairy, one last fight! Use Storm!" The Wind Fairy summoned a powerful storm, sweeping across the entire area and charging towards the Double Axe War Dragon.

Long Yue's eyes were determined, "Double Axe War Dragon, use the ultimate impact!" The Double Axe War Dragon shone brightly, and it rushed towards the storm like a cannonball, directly dispersing the storm and slamming into the wind fairy.

The wind fairy was thrown to the ground and couldn't move, while the double-axe war dragon just stood up and shook off the dust on its body, looking fine.

Unfortunately, the Wind Fairy lost this battle.
