Chapter 61 Winning the Championship
The girl with glasses grinned foolishly. If she could enter the Veiled Gym to collect comprehensive data on Primeape, then she could also collect data on Gallade and Kommo-o.
Moreover, sharing a room with a handsome guy like Li Shuwen is never a bad deal.
Looking at the girl with glasses' smile, Li Meining felt something was off.
"Sister, are you alright?"
The girl with glasses quickly waved her hand, "It's nothing, I'm just a little too happy because I think the Primeape is very valuable for research."
The older man, a man with experience, joked, "Is it the Pokémon that's more valuable, or the person?"
The girl with glasses instantly composed herself, reverting to her original quiet and aloof demeanor. "I don't understand what you're talking about, uncle."
In the semi-finals, Li Shuwen's opponent was a girl with a scholarly air.
As usual, the girl with glasses introduced, "Millie, the librarian of the Canal City Library, is skilled at using Normal-type Pokémon, such as Jigglypuff and Caterpillar."
"But don't let their appearance fool you and make you underestimate their formidable fighting power."
Millie smiled gently, "Piglet, here comes the show."
Sending Hot Monkey to the game seems a bit cruel to a girl.
Bad frogs are also unsuitable.
"Scaled Dragon, please!"
"Pigletie, fly!"
Puffy took a deep breath and immediately flew into the sky.
"Dragon Breath, take her down."
With a breath of dragon's breath, the chubby little creature unexpectedly expelled the air from its body.
Like a balloon suddenly deflated, it cleverly avoids the dragon's breath.
Then it suddenly soared into the sky.
"snowstorm!"
Li Shuwen smiled, "Break the tile!"
Puffy blew away the wind and snow, expelling all the air from his belly, and his body was blown high into the sky.
Millie thought to herself, "There's a blizzard ahead, and Fat Koopy is flying so high."
The Scaled Dragon definitely can't hit Jigglypuff.
Unexpectedly, in the midst of the blizzard, the Armored Dragon bent its knees and leaped, appearing like a cannonball in front of Wigglypuff and slashing it down with a single claw.
Millie was utterly shocked. "What?!"
That's over ten meters high! How could a scaled dragon have such an excellent jumping ability?!
Of course, it's because of the tail end of the attack!
In addition to its tail, the Scaled Dragon will also carry extra weight during training.
The effect of suppressing energy circulation with the tail of the attack is very good.
But it's not heavy enough!
The dragon bloodline of the scaled dragon was continuously developed, and its power increased greatly.
Even with an additional 100 kilograms of weight, the Scaled Dragon moved with ease.
The incredible power allowed the Armored Dragon to leap more than ten meters, knocking the Wiggly Dragon from the sky to the ground.
The referee waved his flag, announcing, "Jiggling is unable to battle; the winner is Kommo-O-Tank!"
Millie's scholarly air seemed to have been somewhat diminished by this failure.
She was somewhat disoriented; how could a scaled dragon jump so high!
Do you know how much hard training she and Puffy Cotton went through to combine inflation and blizzards in order to fly that high?
"Mongoose Slash, here it comes!"
Sharp claws, sharp eyes—this is an exceptionally skilled mongoose slasher.
"Tear Claw!"
Zangoose Slash charged forward, but Kommo-o raised its arm and caught Zangoose Slash's claw.
Clang!
The claws seemed to strike an alloy.
The scaled dragon grinned, fully confident in the defensive power of its dragon scales.
Every day, I use the Iron Wall skill to temper my dragon scales. How could a mere Mongoose Slash possibly tear them apart?
But for Zangoose Cleaver, his claws, which he sharpened every day, couldn't even break through the scales of the Scaleless Dragon!
This is an utter disgrace!
"Dragon Claw!"
"Tear Claw!"
The two claws clashed, and the Zangoose Slash's hand was directly opened, its claws going numb.
That's bad. Not only is their attack power lacking, but their strength is also lacking.
Struck in the abdomen by a claw from the Scaled Dragon, Zangoose Slash was in so much pain that he couldn't make a sound.
He was hit in a vital spot.
Sharp claws are not to be taken lightly.
The Scaled Dragon turned around and lashed its tail at the chin of the Mongoose Slash.
The Mongoose Slash sent him flying, and he was knocked unconscious upon landing.
The referee waved his flag, announcing, "Zangoose Slash is incapacitated; the victor is Kommo-o!"
I'm not reconciled, I'm deeply unwilling to accept it.
But Millie suddenly smiled gently; she accepted her defeat.
She went back and kept working hard. She didn't believe she would lose so easily next time she challenged the Veiled Gym.
In the stands, the middle-aged man stroked his chin, "Why do I feel like the Scaled Dragon has gotten quite a bit stronger than yesterday?"
The girl with glasses nodded. "Although I didn't use any instruments to test the scaled dragon yesterday, based on basic analysis, its strength is insufficient to support it jumping to such a high position."
Li Meining disagreed, saying, "The scaled dragon trains every day, so it will naturally become stronger."
Hedgehog Head agreed with Li Meining's statement, "Pokémon can become stronger through training or battles. Kommo-o might just have just broken through to the next level."
The girl with glasses took a deep breath and gave up trying to analyze for the two of them just how much progress the scaled dragon had made, and how incredible it was.
But they're both semi-literate, so even if I explained it to them, they probably wouldn't understand.
Because of Li Shuwen's improved talent, the Scaled Dragon underwent a dramatic change overnight.
The potential accumulated by the Scaled Dragon over the past eight years was released rapidly, like water flowing out of a dam, and it became unstoppable.
Back in the lounge, Li Shuwen handed the Poké Ball to Nurse Joy.
A young man with a cold and aloof expression also arrived here.
"In our match later, I hope you can give it your all. I know I'm no match for you, but I want to know just how big the gap is between us."
Li Shuwen nodded seriously, "I understand."
"My name is Leng Feng. I used to be the captain of the Sinnoh Police Force. My goal is to return to my hometown and establish a Fighting-type gym."
Li Shuwen extended his hand to him, "Then congratulations in advance on your success."
Leng Feng was somewhat surprised. "Aren't you afraid I'll steal the subsidies the league gives you?"
Li Shuwen laughed, "Maybe it's another fighting gym that got shut down?"
Of the 25 gyms in Sinnoh, besides the Veiled Gym, there is also a Fighting Gym.
However, its business performance is even worse than that of the Curtain Dojo, consistently ranking at the bottom.
There are too many fighting gyms. If Leng Feng's application is successful, one of the fighting gyms will inevitably be shut down by the Sinnoh League.
But Li Shuwen was confident that the closed fighting dojo would not be the Veil Dojo!
Leng Feng smiled knowingly, "Thank you for your kind words!"
The championship battle is highly anticipated.
"Hot Monkey, please!"
"Go, Fast Fist Man!"
The referee waved his flag, "The match begins!"
Li Shuwen shouted, "Explosive Fist!"
Leng Feng shouted in return, "We'll use Explosive Fist too!"
Both Fiery Monkey and Quick Fist were punched at the same time. Fiery Monkey took three steps back, while Quick Fist took five.
"One more time!"
"Let's do it again!"
It's not that Leng Feng is a clever copycat, but rather that when fighting against the fiery monkey, he can only engage in direct combat.
A defensive counter-attack strategy is a dead end!
In their next clash, Incineroar continued his straightforward approach, while Punchman tried to use fighting techniques.
But... it didn't work!
Intense Monkey has a strong intuition, while Quick-Punch exposed his weakness and was knocked back.
Intense Monkey lunges forward, unleashing a million-ton punch!
Quick-Punch Man clutched his stomach and knelt on the ground, unable to get up.
The referee waved his flag and announced, "Fast Punch is unable to fight. The winner is Intense Monkey."
"Go, Flying Kick Man, unleash a million-ton kick!"
"Next, a million-ton punch!"
Having taken a kick from Kicker, Incineroar's anger surged, his power seemingly exceeding ten times its normal strength.
He leaped forward and threw a punch, the violent force like a dragon crashing down.
Flying Kick Man crashed directly into the wall, embedding himself in it.
Leng Feng's eyes widened; seeing is believing.
Infernape's power is... terrifyingly powerful!
The referee waved his flag and announced, "Hitmonlee is unable to battle, the winner is Primeape, therefore the champion of this competition is Li Shuwen from Veilstone City!"
