Elf: My three starters are the three gods of Hoenn

At this moment, the entire audience stood up and cheered for Zhang Feng's victory!

……

"Oh my god! My fighting spirit is boiling! I really want to have a full-team battle with Zhang Feng right now, Pikachu, I'm going to win this time!"

Upon hearing Ash's words, Pikachu clenched its fist, while Masamune, standing nearby, retorted defiantly!

"I'm the one who should defeat Zhang Feng!"

"No, it's me!"

It's me!

"it's me!"

……

On the other side, Ye Yue and Tetsuya also clenched their fists!

They know quite a bit about Zhang Feng. Of the Pokémon that appeared, only Gardevoir is suspected to be Zhang Feng's main Pokémon!

The Pokémon that appeared earlier were the three starter Pokémon that Zhang Feng obtained in Scientist Town. Just by obtaining the initial three starter Pokémon back then, he already had the strength he has now!

How could this not shock everyone? Less than two months have passed!

So, it seems that Zhang Feng's main Pokémon right now might all be at the Elite Four level!

Not to mention, he also has a mythical beast like Rayquaza!

With someone like this at this year's Hoenn League Celestial Tournament, it's really putting a lot of pressure on everyone!

With mixed feelings, the two watched Zhang Feng's departing figure and thought to themselves!

"Although the pressure is immense, our growth in strength will not stagnate under these circumstances. Zhang Feng, this time, we will not give up easily!"

Shinji, however, gave Zhang Feng a deep look before turning and leaving. No one knew what he was thinking at that moment!

After defeating Xiao Ao, Zhang Feng officially entered the top 32!

Another day has passed, and the list of matches for the top 32 to advance to the top 16 has been released!

Next match: Zhang Feng vs. Tiger Scorpionfish. This one was one of the top four in last year's Hoenn Pokémon League, and almost got third place. He is quite strong, and I heard that he is a near-Elite Four level powerhouse!

The ace Pokémon is a giant swamp monster!

According to this match schedule, after the next round ends and the battles for the top 16 to advance to the top 8 begin, if Masamune wins, then Zhang Feng's next opponent will be him!

This is a bit of a surprise. I thought it would be a battle between Ash and Masamune, but this time, Masamune's opponent is himself!

Inside the Pokémon Center, everyone was looking at their battle charts!

If all goes well, Ash and Shinji will face off in the round of 16!

"Zhang Feng, I will definitely defeat my opponent. I will defeat you in the round of 16 against all the other teams. Before that, you can't lose!"

Upon hearing Masamune's challenge, Zhang Feng smiled and replied!

"Alright, see you in the match!"

Seeing that Masamune and Zhang Feng might have a match, Ash became excited!

"Damn it, Masamune, you really did run into them first!"

"Hahaha, Xiao Zhi, I will definitely defeat Zhang Feng!"

"It's alright, Masamune. Before I fight Zhang Feng, I also need to defeat that arrogant Shinji. Just don't lose to Zhang Feng, although I think Zhang Feng has a very good chance of winning!"

"Ash, what did you say? I won't lose!"

A day later, Masamune's match started first. In a three-on-three situation, after losing Kirin and Gliscor, Masamune won the final match with Growlithe and successfully advanced to the round of 16!

After the match, Masamune used the Fire Stone to evolve Growlithe into Arcanine, further boosting its strength, all for the sake of having a good fight with Zhang Feng!

After Masamune's match, it was Zhang Feng's turn!

When Zhang Feng's match started again, and he saw that his opponent was Tiger Scorpion from Green Ridge City, a man of about thirty years old, Zhang Feng also felt a bit more competitive!

"Last year's top four, huh? Interesting. Let me see just how strong you really are!"

Upon hearing Zhang Feng's words, Tiger Fish laughed heartily!

"Young man, although you are very strong, you are still far from being as good as me!"

"Next up is the Hoenn Pokémon League Celestial Tournament, the matches for the top 32 to advance to the top 16!"

"In this match, the two opponents are Zhang Feng from Weibai Town and Hu Lian from Green Ridge City. Although Zhang Feng is very strong, his opponent is one of the top four contestants from the previous Rainbow Ghost Tournament, and he is very powerful!"

"Who will ultimately emerge victorious in today's match? Let's wait and see!"

……

Chapter 128 Thirty-two to sixteen, the top four from the previous season!

"In this battle, Zhang Feng will attack first. The battlefield is the Ice Battle Arena, and he can use three Pokémon. Now, let the match begin!"

After the referee gave the order, Zhang Feng was holding a deluxe ball in his hand!

The next moment, accompanied by a flash of light, an Absol, known as the Calamity Beast, appeared!

The moment Absol appeared, Absol's image lit up on the big screen in Zhang Feng's panel!

"Absol, then you're my partner. Go, Scyther!"

"Ding-dong, Scyther's current attribute values ​​are as follows:"

Pokémon: Scyther

Rating: 52

Ability: Insect Premonition

Attributes: Flying, Insect

Qualification: Purple

Super Evolution: Not yet unlocked

Skills: Sword Dance, Combo Slash, Point Strike, Wing Attack, Cleave, Cross Scissors, Double Strike...

Looking at the Tiger Scorpionfish's flying mantis, Zhang Feng couldn't help but show a hint of admiration!

It has to be said that he truly deserves to be one of the top four contestants in last year's Hoenn Pokémon League Celestial Tournament. With a strength of level 52, he is almost on par with the Gym Leaders!

But against myself, I'm still not good enough!

Even in the second round, the final three-on-three battle, the next match was the all-out battle for the top sixteen, but none of the opponents Zhang Feng encountered were strong enough to make him want to bring out his strongest main Pokémon!

At the same time, when Tiger Scorpion sends out Scyther, Scyther's icon lights up and appears below Tiger Scorpion on the big screen!

"Scyther, use Sword Dance!"

"Absol, let's unleash our sword dance too!"

The next moment, after Zhang Feng and Tiger Scorpion gave the order at the same time, Absol and Scyther began to increase their attack power!

With a strange dance, the sword dance is complete!

"Scyther, dash forward with a flash of lightning, then unleash a flurry of attacks on Absol!"

Bug-type moves are super effective against Dark-type moves, so it's quite the right decision for Scorpionfish to send out this Scyther!

However, if a trainer can only win by using Pokémon that are type-advantageous to the opponent, then there is nothing to praise about it!

"Absol, Whirlwind Blade, stop him!"

As Scyther charged toward Absol at incredible speed, Absol, under Zhang Feng's command, unleashed a massive slash from the scythe on its head!

With a loud bang, it struck the flying mantis!

This move directly prevented Scyther from using its skills smoothly, interrupting both its combo and Quick Attack!

"Well done! Keep attacking! Use Flamethrower!"

"Scyther, get out of the way!"

At the last second, Scyther managed to dodge Absol's Flamethrower thanks to its speed!

Seeing this, Tiger Fish couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Zhang Feng, on the other hand, only realized at this moment that since the start of the round of 16, the strength of his opponents seemed to have indeed increased quite a bit!

Now, it's almost impossible to instantly kill an opponent using a non-main Pokémon!

"Absol, use Foresight!"

Upon receiving Zhang Feng's order, Absol roared, and a terrifying bolt of lightning shot into the sky!

The once clear sky suddenly turned gloomy and oppressive, with lightning flashing wildly in the air. After two rounds, this psychic-type ultimate move will fall and strike the Scyther!

"Damn it, Scyther! I'll risk it all! Charge over there and use the cross-shaped attack!"

Realizing that Scyther had been given a fatal move, Tiger Scorpion had no choice but to send Scyther to charge!

As Scyther's two sword-like arms, covered in dense Bug-type energy, attacked, Absol neither dodged nor evaded!

"One more time, Whirlwind Blade!"

With a thunderous roar, the massive whirlwind blade struck out once more, colliding head-on with the Flying Mantis!

While Scyther was flying backward, Tiger Shark immediately took out a Poké Ball and recalled Scyther!

Since he couldn't defeat Zhang Feng's Absol with Scyther, he could only use Dark-type Pokémon to defend against this Predictive ability!

The next moment, after the Pokémon was changed, a magnificent and imposing Crawdeck made its appearance!

Seeing the lobster waving its large pincers, Zhang Feng naturally checked its attribute panel again!

"Ding-dong, the current attribute values ​​of the Iron Claw Lobster are as follows:"

Elf: Iron Claw Lobster

Rating: 55

Ability: Mighty Claws

Attribute: Water, Dark

Qualification: Purple

Super Evolution: Not yet unlocked

Skills: High Speed ​​Star, Bubble Beam, Swords Dance, Brute Force, Crunch, Blizzard, Dark Pulse...

With the appearance of the Iron Claw Lobster, even the Psychic-type move Prediction has become less effective!

Because Dark-type Pokémon are immune to Psychic-type moves!

Furthermore, this Ironclaw Lobster is far stronger than the previous Scyther, and even if Absol were to enter the fray, it would be difficult for it to gain an advantage!

Thinking of this, Zhang Feng also changed his Pokémon!

After Absol was recalled, the Ice Sprite immediately appeared!

Compared to Absol, which is only level 49, Glaceon is considered Zhang Feng's second-tier main Pokémon, currently at the peak of the Elite Four level!

Facing the Ice Sprite, whose momentum was even stronger, Tiger Fish's expression changed. At this moment, he no longer cared about the pride of being a top four finalist in the previous season!

I have a feeling that my journey to the Hoenn Pokémon League is coming to an end!

"Iron-clawed lobster, unleash your crab fist!"

"Ice Sprite, Freeze Ray!"

The battle arena itself is an ice-based battle arena, which naturally gives Ice-type Pokémon like Glaceon a slight advantage, making them thrive!

With the surge of extreme cold, the freezing ray instantly froze the iron claw lobster that was rushing towards it!

One blow, instant kill!

At this moment, the Iron Claw Lobster maintained its charging momentum with its crab-fist attack, and then it lost its fighting ability directly in the ice!

"Ding-dong! The Ice Sprite has defeated the Iron Claw Lobster, gaining 857 experience points. Level remains unchanged, current level 59!"

"The Iron Claw Lobster is unable to fight, and the Ice Sprite wins!"

After hearing the referee's words, the scorpionfish had no choice but to release the scyther again!

As a result, the Premonition that was in the air immediately fell down in the next second, and endless lightning struck the Scyther!
