Aspiring to become a Pokémon trainer

The Yeti, also known as the Snow King, is a creature that combines the attributes of ice and grass.

Four times the restraint should have been enough to frustrate this behemoth, but in the field of vision, the pure white Yeti merely trembled slightly, shaking off all the sparks.

"Blizzard King, Aurora Curtain."

It is a defensive method implemented after the fact.

Aurora Veil, as the name suggests, can reduce the special and physical damage taken by your Pokémon for several turns in snowy weather.

In a similar fashion, Nanyin chose to calm down, observe the situation, and stick to one style.

Raising her joints and channeling her energy, Maya swiftly erected a membrane-like barrier. The icy light, though sharp, lost its potential energy against this iron wall, and any further approach was merely a painless caress.

But this was only the initial clash. With almost no time to catch its breath, the rock monster carrying the iceberg lowered its head, folded its icicle-like limbs, and crashed down on Sylveon like a gliding piece of steel.

The freezing beam's modification of the terrain is enough to allow the originally cumbersome former to accelerate and crash into things by sliding, or even evade attacks.

"Ice Rock Monster, Iron Head."

Knowing very little about the puppets of the authorities, Defu also intends to temporarily set aside this aspect and break through the weaker side.

With its eyes glowing red, the Ice Rock Monster stirred up mist on the ice like a bulldozer, recklessly charging towards Sylveon, its metallic luster becoming increasingly refined as it moved.

The powerful impact, combined with the opponent's broad body, gave one a sense of impending doom, like a mountain about to collapse.

However, a blade of grass snagged his ankle halfway through, causing him to lose his balance.

Tying a knot in grass is effective in binding and tripping over an opponent. The heavier the opponent, the greater the effect.

Unable to maintain its footing, the Ice Rock Monster lost its ability to control its direction. When it lowered its gaze, the pinkish-white beast revealed its canine teeth and spewed out scorching flames.

Knowing something was wrong, but with Blizzard King's slow speed, it would be difficult to get close. Thus, the old man could only sigh and make the only choice.

"Blizzard King, power of the earth."

"Ice Rock Monster, take this!"

It swung its giant arm, slammed its fist into the ground, and stomped down, causing frequent tremors. The raging fire lost its momentum due to the shaking of its body. However, the ice rock monster, which intended to resist, did not expect that the power of this magical flame would far exceed its expectations.

Even with the aurora barrier in place, the firelight still pierced through its defenses with unstoppable force.

The girl precisely exploited his vulnerability in the special defense area, and used her weight to create an opening, achieving victory in one fell swoop.

It couldn't even last half a moment. With the added advantage of its intelligence and ferocity, the blazing flames instantly melted the iceberg and scorched its flesh. The two Pokémon, with their vastly different sizes, were actually not even in the same league when it came to attack.

The hailstones scraped and chafed the skin, and the biting cold of the snowy day had not yet dissipated, but the first to be absent was a general from the Defu army.

"The level of understanding and utilization of information has reached an astonishing degree."

Applause was given, and even someone as experienced as myself had to admire the opponent's keen insight in this area. A slight misjudgment had cost us the advantage we had been maintaining.

However, the duel was far from over, and his stakes were not limited to the Ice Rock Monster as the vanguard.

"Blizzard King, Mega Evolution!"

Raise the keystone pendant high, and a dazzling rainbow light rises in the arena. Then look again, and the Blizzard King, whose appearance has changed drastically, stands majestically on the ice, raising his thick feathers and roaring.

The airflow spewed out by the giant beast spread throughout the area, forming a hazy white mist. Ice crystals continued to condense, and the faint howl of a blizzard could be heard.

The snowfall intensified, marking the second stage of the progression.

P.S.: I don't know why, but the last chapter had far fewer readers. I really, really hope you won't leave; it would be very disappointing.

Chapter 84 Further Evolution and the Armored Dragon

Mega Blizzard King, with its solid double-layered armor, is also a weather deity that triggers snowfall.

Unmoved by the overwhelming aura, and knowing the opponent's lineup, Nan Yin simply furrowed her brows and focused intently.

The dim light barrier remained hidden in the airflow, indicating that no matter what kind of attack was launched, it would be difficult to break through the defenses and defeat the Yeti in a short time.

As my thoughts drifted, a figure holding a cane and wearing a tall hat emerged from the thick fog, bowed, and began to dance across the ice, like a lead actor in an opera.

The Ice Rock Monster's platform has been replaced by the Icewalker, a unique creature from the Galarian region.

Unable to discern the characteristics of the former, but based on the changes in weather and the continued existence of the light curtain, Nanyin music rejected the possibility of removing the obstacle.

After making this judgment, she realized that the current situation no longer allowed for further delay. Even though the hail was weak, it would still accumulate and gradually wear down the small animals' physical strength.

A decision must be made to create a certain advantage before layoffs occur.

Without uttering a word, the exchange of glances and thoughts conveyed Ibrahimovic's command.

With ribbons piercing the ice, it stood firmly in place, the pink and white sprite puffed out its chest, raised its head, and let out the loudest roar.

Loud sound.

It shattered the ice crystals, broke through the air currents, and with a surging momentum, it destroyed cities and fortresses, determined to wipe out all enemies.

This time, however, the once invincible creature could only sigh in vain and return empty-handed.

Raising his arms, the Snow King stood firmly in front of the Icewalker, using his massive size to block the sound waves and become a shield.

"Blizzard King, hold the line!"

He roared, and although the latter could not avoid the ear-piercing sound, the disturbance was now negligible and could no longer stop the subsequent action.

"Ice-walking puppets, magic space."

Pressing down on the tip of the staff shattered the ice. As the voice faded, the hazy spiritual power subtly disturbed their thoughts, causing a shift in their priorities.

The enormous Yeti was no longer bulky and clumsy; it moved with effortless ease as it strode and crushed. Both Sylveon and Magearna were momentarily stunned, unable to break through the confusing space despite their desire to resist its sluggishness.

The alternation of speed and short bursts between the two sides allows them to capitalize on each other's strengths and avoid their weaknesses, thus changing the tide of battle. This is why Trick Space is a major system.

If that were all, then Nan Yin would indeed be at a disadvantage in this round of combat, but how could she not have thought of De Fu's tactics?

— Take the initiative, launch a decisive attack and defense, gradually reduce the situation with the help of snowfall, and then break through your own defensive formation.

Therefore, before the mental fluctuations stabilized, sharp cries arose again early on.

"Metallic sound."

With hands joined together, she struck the stone with a heavy, resounding clang, like metal striking stone, a powerful and resounding echo—this was Mayiyana's resolute counterattack.

"Gurgle..."

His face showed pain. Although the restless rubbing sound was not lethal, it greatly affected Blizzard King's state, causing him to be uneasy and mentally confused.

The so-called special defense was hit hard twice, and then the damage was reduced.

"Well done!"

I admire the girl's on-the-spot judgment; few people can match her at such a young age, or even slightly outmatch her.

It was precisely because of this that his interest was piqued and his fighting spirit grew stronger.

"Blizzard King, Blizzard!"

It was a rising, stern shout.

It crouches low, opens and closes its jaws, and a strong north wind blows, causing hail to fly.

As far as the eye could see, fierce winds and snow were howling in from behind the giant beast, cutting through the center of the battle like blades.

The existence of the magic space created a generational difference in speed; the cold wave, carrying rage, pierced through the frail bodies of the two small beasts in an instant.

At the same moment, the dark blue puppet lightly landed on its toes, swaying its figure on the ice, galloping freely and dancing gracefully.

"Shaking dance".

Already swaying precariously in the cold wind, the ever-present dance steps would leave anyone who watched feeling dizzy and disoriented after a few moments.

This was originally a power struggle between Qingtai and Tai, but fortunately, Nanyin had anticipated it.

Dig a tunnel and hold the line.

With a flick of its ribbon, Sylveon slicing through the soil beneath it, unconcerned that its fur would be stained with mud. In response to the girl, Sylveon also burrowed underground, avoiding the cold wind blowing in its face.

One side crouches down to avoid the snow, while the other erects a strong barrier to defend against the wind and snow.

However, the straightforward attacks yielded no results, while the surrounding environment relentlessly damaged the body and wore down both body and mind.

Undeterred by the defeat of his move, the old man looked at Nan Yin, whose expression remained unchanged, and his appreciation for her deepened.

"Digging a hole may avoid the attack of wind and snow, but it eliminates the possibility of further evasion. Blizzard King, earthquake!"

Raise both arms high, and intense energy surges into them, radiating a somber light, while a tremendous force swings down with the center of gravity.

boom--

As if the earth's crust had shifted and the mountains had cracked, the entire site was shaking violently.

The shockwave, centered on the Yeti, swept outwards in all directions.

The ground had sunk into a huge crater, and the rampant cracks were so deep that the bottom was visible.

Duels between lords are different from ordinary battles; the lack of rules makes them fair and accessible to everyone.

"To share the pain."

With her hands outstretched, Magiana offered her thoughts, creating a bridge with Eevee beneath her, sharing life and preventing casualties caused by the earthquake.

As the soil sheds its hull, the pinkish-white beast breaks free from the shackles of gravity. Despite being covered in wounds, its ferocity remains undiminished, and it charges straight at the ice-walking puppet with a destructive momentum.

The magic space changes sequentially, but the caster's speed is therefore inferior to Eevee's.

However, no one expected that the blue-black elf would neither dodge nor avoid, but instead imitated its companion's actions, raising its arm high and letting it fall heavily.

"Ice-walking doll, surprise attack!"

Unable to change the direction of its force in an instant, Ibrahimovic, which was being targeted continuously, took several steps back, as if trying to stabilize its center of gravity by swaying. However, it could not withstand the fatigue of its body and the confusion of its mind.

The ribbons drooped, the eyelids drooped, unwilling to leave the stage. The little beast bit its lower lip, determined to awaken its fighting spirit with pain. But before it could put its resolve into action, a pair of hands embraced it, stroking it with fingertips and comforting it with words.

Glancing at the girl's concerned face, Sylveon did not accept it as calmly as usual. It placed its forehead in the girl's arms, and tears slid down from the corners of its eyes, wetting its thin clothes.

It can no longer match the princess's delicacy in daily life, and it cannot even win a victory for Nanyin in battle. What place can it still hold in each other's hearts?

It cannot be tolerated, it cannot be accepted, yet that soft, whispered voice always manages to emerge at just the right moment.

"All of it, exceptional, that's my answer to you. Don't belittle yourself; the snowfall is weakening, and the aurora curtain is dissipating—all thanks to you."

The soul is activated, and the mind is remembered.

She gently straightened the little boy's cheek, and without using many fancy words, Nan Yin simply expressed her feelings in the most straightforward way.

"Besides, we'll have a next time, and the time after that, and a lifetime."

It's an unconventional way of confessing one's feelings.

"Buyi."

With a soft, gentle response, the matter was settled, and both sides found peace of mind, allowing the fierce duel to continue.

"Dianci."

Calling out the princess's name, the petite figure stood firmly to Magiana's side, her eyelashes curling, determined to take over her companion's achievement.

"Mega, evolve."

Without hesitation, she murmured each word, her pristine wedding dress adorning her figure, and the domed crown transforming into a heart shape. Diancie spread her hands, drawing energy away from the earth's veins.

Click, click, click—

Cracks appeared everywhere, and a sudden arc of light transformed into a rocky peak that rose from the ground, forcefully cleaving through the wind and snow, cutting it off.

Power Gem.

"Amazing expressiveness."

In truth, he was quite surprised. He had rarely heard of either mechanical dolls or the Pink Diamond Princess, and he did not know their attributes, let alone the moves they could learn.

Fortunately, the magic space was still ongoing, and in those remaining seconds, he had enough time to gather information step by step and probe for weaknesses.

Judging from appearance alone, the petite elf seems to possess both fairy and fairy attributes. If that's the case, then let's strike with steel.

"Blizzard King, suppress it head-on!"

Like a heavy tank, Blizzard King thundered down, charging straight ahead.

They felt a deafening roar in their ears, and the giant beast that had transformed into a sharp blade was now within arm's reach of them.

With a swing of his strong arm, the gleam of metal enveloped his surface as he exerted his strength, poised to strike.

"Mageyana".
