Dawn of Pokémon

The hustle and bustle gradually receded, and the clear sky in midsummer cast increasingly blazing sunlight onto the earth.

When his eyes met his familiar opponent, the orange Yanlong felt joy from the bottom of his heart.The swollen flame at the tip of its tail flashed with green light that only appeared under extremely high temperatures, while its sky-colored eyes were as bright as a lighthouse in the night sky.Following the trainer's instructions, it breathed out scorching flames.

"Spray flames."

The fire tore apart the last trace of silence before the war.Before the flames arrived, the blazing air waves had already distorted the air, and Yan, who was also a fire attribute, was not afraid of the red fire light and spread its wings to fly into the sky on the heat waves.

"Smokescreen."

As the unfamiliar instructions came out, Yan breathed out billowing black smoke.The reddish wind stirred with its flapping dragon wings, and the next moment it carried the smoke screen forward.

This is a combination of hot air and smoke screen.The blazing wind made up for the lack of spread speed of the smoke screen. The thick smoke was almost condensed into a sphere, traveling through the wind like a bullet, and landed at the feet of the fire-breathing dragon in the blink of an eye.

Xiaoye realized that the fire-breathing dragon had no time to leave the scope of the spherical smoke screen, and immediately said: "Shadow clone——"

"Rock collapse."

The fire-breathing dragon surrounded by black smoke quickly separated into many real and false shadows, but Yan didn't care about it.A rainstorm of rocks rained down from above the smoke screen, shattering all the real and fake lights and shadows. The roar of the fire-breathing dragon was buried in the loud noise of the impact of the rocks.

The amount of dust contained in a spherical smoke screen is much smaller than that of the most standard smoke screen, and the agitation caused by the collision of rocks and the ground is enough to dissipate it.Yan keenly heard the roar of the fire-breathing dragon when it was injured, and immediately stepped forward to pursue the victory.

And another trainer's voice was stuck exactly at the moment when the noise of the rockfall ended, and it sounded exactly, "Purgatory."

Crimson flames spread with the fire-breathing dragon as the center.It was a high-temperature flame that would also burn fire-type Pokémon, and Yan had to retreat temporarily to protect himself.

At the same time, Xiaoye heard the boy opposite giving a familiar command.

"The Pledge of Fire."

Countless pillars of fire rose from the ground, staining the battlefield filled with gravel and sand red.The Charizard, who was about to charge forward, quickly held on to its momentum, preventing itself from plunging into the fire.

When fighting against Bai Lan's Eluredor, Charizard relied on an unskilled move called Fire Oath to block the opponent's teleportation, and used it as a carrier of a big explosion to win the game.But this time, the appearance of the Fire Oath initiated by Yan was very different - the rising pillars of fire were of uniform height, surrounding the fire-breathing dragon like the bars of a cage, completely surrounding it, leaving only a narrow passage in the front. .

The figure of the fire-breathing dragon suddenly froze in the air.The command of Thunder Fist followed closely, and Yan, who was riding the thunder and lightning, launched a dive towards the prey in the cage.

Xiaoye had seen Yan use the Fire Pledge more than once.She knew that Yan could use overheating to strengthen the Fire Oath at any time. Even the platypus living in magma could not withstand such high temperatures, let alone the fire-breathing dragon whose heat resistance was inferior to that of the platypus.In this case, what should be done is naturally——

"Energized Flame Attack."

The orange flame dragon put on a battle suit of flames and fearlessly rushed towards the only exit of the cage, as if it was afraid of the danger of the fence and had to compete with the sharp claws surrounded by thunder and lightning.

Just before the two sides were about to collide, Charizard made a sharp turn and rose to avoid Yan's lightning fist, and rushed high into the sky against the pillar of fire.

Before the fire dragon had time to breathe a sigh of relief, Xiaotian's additional order had arrived.

"Dragon's Wrath."

The fire pillar closest to the fire-breathing dragon started to stir.Sensing something bad, Xiaoye immediately gave emergency instructions for evasion, but it was still half a step too late when the sound reached Charizard's ears.The fire tornado mixed with dragon flames suddenly expanded with the Oath of Fire as the center, and instantly included the location of the fire-breathing dragon within the burning range.

"Smoke bombs, rockfalls."

When Long Yan touched the fire-breathing dragon, the silver-haired boy immediately gave new instructions, as if he was the one who was good at high-speed combat.As soon as the fire-breathing dragon escaped from the shackles of the dazzling dragon flames, the spherical smoke screen exploded at its center again, and the ensuing rainstorm of rocks severely devastated the venue, causing the earth to rumble and tremble.

This series of attacks was obviously a killing move that Yan had trained for a long time. With the ability of the fire-breathing dragon, there was no way to avoid it. It seemed that he could only hold his head and be beaten under the power of the rockfall.However, when the heavy rain of rocks stopped falling, the orange shadow had long since disappeared from the smoke and dust that gradually dispersed.

Yan's trainer couldn't help but be stunned, but his opponent was already racing against time to insert new commands.

"Energized Flame Attack."

The roaring flame dragon burst out of the ground without warning, hitting Yan's soft abdomen hard, causing it to bow in pain - the fire-breathing dragon had apparently dug a hole into the ground under the cover of smoke.

Digging is a move it learned when it was a Charmander to facilitate movement in the wild, and it does not match the fighting style of the evolved Charizard.However, there is nothing unfamiliar about its movements, as if it has never neglected to practice this useless move.

Xiaotian instinctively noticed that the actions of the fire-breathing dragon seemed to be a bit inconsistent, but his reason told him that such a surprise attack would never be successful a second time. The trajectory of his thoughts only paused for a moment before returning to the sky battlefield belonging to the fire-breathing dragons.

The successful surprise attack allowed Charizard to finally cause real damage to Yan, and its excitement made it almost forget the pain caused by the rocks hitting it.The two sides reorganized their formations in the air and engaged in a new round of fighting.

Yan's style of play is not as unpredictable as the previous Pokkigu or Shakiras, and his fighting style is more inclined to attack and defend with strength.It is older than Charizard, and has a far richer variety of moves than Charizard. No matter what situation it faces, it can find a way to break the situation.Just relying on the advantage of physical strength and the richness of moves, Yan is enough to steadily suppress Charizard, not to mention Xiaotian's command level is obviously higher than that of his opponent.

Xiaoye tried switching different playing styles and rhythms, but still couldn't seize the opponent's initiative as she wished.Unlike Bailan's Aluredo, Yan has the ability to fly like Charizard. When the sky battlefield is no longer the exclusive domain of Charizard, the method of "flying high to forcefully interrupt the fierce fighting" is naturally of no use.

The increasing scars caused Charizard's physical strength to begin to decline.Taking advantage of its flaw, the vortex of flames trapped the fire-breathing dragon in the center, filling the opponent's field of vision with a dazzling wall of fire.

After receiving the order, Charizard immediately flew upwards, trying to bypass the dangerous vortex wall. Before the flame vortex unfolded, Yan was at the same height as Charizard. He rushed out and was likely to directly hit the opponent's blade head-on. .

The next moment, Yan's figure suddenly appeared above the flame vortex.

Charizard was startled and instinctively stopped flying.But Xiaoye immediately noticed something was wrong - the obstruction of the flame vortex prevented her from seeing Yan's specific movements, but she was convinced that Yan was at the same speed as Charizard, and there was no way that Yan could reach the flame vortex first if it started later than Charizard. .

"Energy storage flame attack!"

The trainer's suddenly accelerated speaking speed caused Charizard to put on the red suit faster than usual.It rose rapidly driven by the flames, and was about to cross the blinding wall of fire.

The bright sword light suddenly cut off the flame vortex.The sparks flying all over the sky were dazzling, and the sharp wind blades had pierced the obstacles from bottom to top, carving severe scars on the Charizard's body.

The "fire" above the whirlpool was also affected by the vibrating air, and silently dissipated in the firelight - if you look carefully, you can see that the real fire is still in place, and what appears above is just a phantom used to interfere with the fire-breathing dragon's judgment. That’s all.

The orange flame dragon finally escaped the pursuit of the wind blade, and its body fell to the ground unsteadily.Its left wing was injured by the air slash, and scarlet blood flowed down the dragon's wings.

The pain made Charizard's brain function a little sluggish, and he panted and did not immediately pounce on his opponent.

Air Slash is an "upgrade move" that Charizard can master as it grows naturally.Most of the fire-type attacks that Charizard is currently able to skillfully control are fire-type attacks. His mastery of Air Slash can only be considered as barely able to hit a single target.If you want to change the method of execution - such as making the wind blade fly out of a whirlpool of chopping flames around itself - there is nothing you can do.

The air slash issued by Yan was like a substantial sword light, and every slash was flexible and powerful. It was almost completely different from the air slash in Charizard's memory.

After half a year, Charizard once again felt the frustration he had experienced in the back mountains of Zhenxin Town.

It once felt that it had shed enough sweat, experienced enough setbacks, and defeated enough powerful enemies.It imagined that it had caught up with Yan, could compete with Yan on the same stage, and even defeated the opponent.Now it has been proven that hard work is just the first ticket to this arena. Perhaps the distance between Charizard and its unilaterally recognized opponent has never narrowed one bit.

——And isn’t this its most familiar position?

The moment he clearly realized his weakness again, the flames at the tip of the fire-breathing dragon's tail rose fiercely.

Yan was keenly aware that his opponent's condition had declined to the point where he could no longer maintain [-]% combat power, and immediately rushed forward to launch an offensive.Charizard ignored the severe pain on its left wing and flapped its wings fiercely to fly into the air.It avoided the flashing claws of the flame thunder, folded its wings and dived downwards, hitting the ground hard with a punch containing flame energy.

"——Oath of Fire."

Dazzling pillars of fire rose from the ground one after another - they were not the usual haphazardly dotted flames. The flowing scorching energy broke through the soil and erupted violently from the caves deep underground, instantly reflecting the battlefield. It became a sea of ​​fire.

The flames are shooting out of the cave...?

Xiaotian immediately noticed the suspicion.Charizard did use digging holes once during the battle, but it was only once and it lasted less than five seconds. How could it possibly dig so many holes?

When the trainer paused the command due to thinking, the Charizard's body flashed and was suddenly submerged in the flames.When the Fire Oath was connected to the cave, the fire pillar became the door to the underground. The orange flame dragon disappeared underground instantly. Two seconds later, large-sized flames erupted from completely different directions, hitting those who could not dodge. of inflammation.

By the time Yan followed the direction of the impact and locked onto the attacker's position, the fire-breathing dragon had long disappeared.The pillar of fire reaching the sky became the best protective color. No one could see clearly where the fire-breathing dragon appeared before it spit out a large burst of flames.

This flaming version of the whack-a-mole attack made Yan feel a bit at a loss for a moment, and he was hit one after another by the big-character explosive flames - it was the most explosive and fastest fire-based move, and the attacker could not see the forward movements. At this time, it is impossible to completely avoid it.The penetration of the Oath of Fire has caused the ground to be filled with fire-attribute energy. The air with increased temperature is just right for the fire-breathing dragon. It moves at a faster speed in the cave. The intensive attacks make Yan even unable to find a gap to change his moves. .

The silver-haired boy frowned slightly and put aside the issue of the cave for the time being, "Earthquake."

There is no doubt that this is the most reasonable countermeasure in the face of the situation on the field - the caves dug by the Charizard are basically concentrated in the center of the field. Such dense caves are connected to each other, which will naturally make the ground fragile.Yan suddenly descended against the scorching flames, and a hazy yellow light wrapped around its feet.If it were solid this time, the underground cave would collapse instantly.

Xiaoye seemed to be waiting for the moment when Yan was close to the ground, and when he was unable to stop his momentum, he suddenly ordered, "Rock avalanche!"

Alarm bells suddenly sounded in Xiaotian's heart.Rock avalanches from the rock system were four times more restrained against Charizard, and Yan was falling rapidly at the moment, with no time to change directions and dodge.If this round of attacks actually hits, the situation of the battle will definitely be turned around.

In a flash of thought, Xiaotian decisively gave the instruction to "hold on."Yan gave up the use of earthquake and allowed his body to continue falling, while the green light shield expanded silently.

However, the expected rock storm never came.Charizard rushed out of a cave, and the flames bathing his body became a booster of acceleration.At the moment when the shield of light dissipated in vain, the orange shadow suddenly activated, knocking Yan away.

——Unlike Yan, who has a rich move pool, Charizard does not have any rock collapse at all. It is just a code word for "close attack" that was determined before the game.

Charizard, who succeeded in one attack, used the opportunity to make up for it with an unskilled dragon claw move, and then turned around and ran away, as if he wanted to hide in the hole again and repeat his old tricks.Naturally, Xiaotian would not let it go, and immediately ordered Yan to launch a pursuit.

During the lightning-fast chase, Xiaotian vaguely noticed that the fire-breathing dragon's movements seemed a bit uncoordinated, and the accumulated acceleration of the charged flame attack failed to make it shake off the flames.

Is it because the wings are injured?

Perhaps because the flames of the Fire Oath interfered with his vision, Xiaotian failed to find the scar on the fire-breathing dragon's wings.After a breath, Yan's dragon claws had already tightly clasped the fire-breathing dragon's arm.

Beating lightning emerges from the tip of Yan's claws, and the next second will pierce the sharp current into Charizard's body.Charizard, however, had no intention of breaking free, and suddenly reached out and clasped Yan's claws hard on himself.

The orange flame dragon burst out with the greatest power in this body.Yan only felt a strong pulling force coming from the fire-breathing dragon, and the scenery in front of him faded and fell into a blazing heat.

Xiaotian watched the two fire-breathing dragons sink into the cave together, and slight doubts rose from the bottom of his heart.

He had seen the way Charizard defeated Bai Lan in the quarterfinals, so he had long been wary of Charizard's "big explosion".However, even if the fire-breathing dragon drags Yan into the cave, it will not be able to detonate the oath of fire like this. The fire-breathing dragon, which consumes far more physical strength than Yan, will obviously fall in the explosion first, not to mention the collapse of the soil, sand and gravel will inevitably bring disaster to the people. Pokémon in the cave deal secondary damage.

Unless it found a way to leave Yan underground and fly high to avoid the explosion - how could Yan make such a mistake?

The next moment, the silver-haired boy opened his eyes wide in shock.

The moment two Charizards fell into the hole, a third Charizard soared into the sky from a completely different hole.The shock caused the young man's thoughts to pause slightly, and the scenes he had seen before were connected bit by bit in his mind.

The scars disappeared on the wings, the slightly uncoordinated movements, and the sudden appearance of the third fire-breathing dragon - when the word "substitute" appeared belatedly, the flames were already bright.

The orange flame dragon roared and poured all the energy in his body into the ground.The majestic beam of light pierced the soil, and cracks instantly covered the entire battlefield.A huge sense of crisis hit Yan who had just entered the cave, but it was already too late.

"Fire Vortex - Overheating!"

Amidst the rumbling sound that shook the earth, the interconnected caves were violently penetrated by flames.The energy of the Oath of Fire swirled in a vortex, condensing and condensing along the lateral passages that had already been dug. All the land passed through the cave became a link in the huge "underground flame vortex".The restless flames violently beat and expanded, and then——

Completely detonated by the hot golden red color.
