Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

Charizard received the order and let out a roar. The flames around its body suddenly rose several feet. It flapped its wings violently and swooped towards Lucario like a flaming cannonball.

The fist as big as a casserole was wrapped in flames during the flight and instantly turned into a burning giant hammer.

"Lucario, don't let it get close, continuous wave missiles!"

Seeing that the two Pokémon had made up their minds and completely ignored his instructions, Wang Qingping had no choice but to compromise.

At this moment, the surrounding vortex of fire was still raging wildly, and the billowing smoke was like a huge black wave, roaring and engulfing them.

Wang Qingping could only cover his mouth and nose tightly with one hand and hold his breath to prevent the pungent and choking smoke from invading his lungs. With his other hand, he waved vigorously in the air and gave orders loudly.

Hearing the sound, Lucario did not dare to slack off at all. He planted his legs firmly on the ground, waved his arms rapidly, and blue light flashed in his palms.

One after another, the wave missiles were like meteors chasing the moon, with the sound of whistling wind, continuously hitting the approaching Charizard.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

The wave missiles were incredibly powerful, and every impact was like a heavy artillery shell exploding, making the air buzz.

Under this wave of attack, the fire-breathing dragon's body shook violently, like a lonely boat in a storm, drifting unsteadily. It flapped its broad wings desperately, trying its best to maintain its balance, but even so, it almost fell several times.

On the orange-red body, there was faint blue smoke coming out of the wounds caused by the wave missile.

But Charizard is not someone who will give up easily!

It turned its head with difficulty, and through the thick smoke and dust, it caught a glimpse of Li Ye behind it, who had an anxious look on his face and clenched fists.

In an instant, a trace of determination flashed in its eyes, and it gritted its teeth, and a resolute power surged in its heart.

Ignoring the incoming missiles, it suddenly lowered its body and smashed Lucario's abdomen with its fist, blazing with flames.

"road!"

Lucamio couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the punch that was filled with all of Charizard's strength. His abdomen felt like it was hit by a sledgehammer. The severe pain instantly spread throughout his body and he couldn't help but cry out in pain.

Its body flew backwards uncontrollably, drawing an arc in the air, and finally fell "heavily" to the ground, splashing up a cloud of dust.

The moment it landed, there was a flash of light, and the mega evolution canceled itself. It lay on the ground with its limbs limp, gasping for breath, its eyes closed, and it had obviously lost its ability to fight.

You know, when Charizard is in a raging fire state, this flaming fist has poured all its strength into it, and has already transcended the scope of ordinary attacks.

How could Lucario, who had been hit by multiple waves of missiles and was seriously injured, have the strength to withstand this extremely effective and fatal blow?

"Lucario..."

Wang Qingping looked at his partner who had fallen to the ground, his eyes slightly red, his voice choked with sobs, full of heartache and reluctance.

"Great!"

Li Ye was completely different, his excitement was beyond words.

He raised his fist high, swung it hard, and a victorious smile appeared on his face.

Finally, after many hardships, we took a crucial step towards the top eight!

As long as I defeat the Swamp King next time, I will be in the top eight. In this case...

Li Ye had just breathed a sigh of relief and had not had time to plan how to deal with the Swamp King when something unexpected happened.

"boom!"

In the distant sky, a dragon wave of mysterious deep purple color, carrying strong pressure, suddenly shot out like a precision-guided artillery shell and accurately hit the scarred and already shaky Charizard.

"Roar--"

The Charizard suffered this sudden heavy blow and raised its head and let out a sad roar.

The sound made the air buzz, revealing endless unwillingness and pain.

It was already dying from the previous fierce battle and as fragile as a candle in the wind. Now it could no longer withstand this heavy blow.

After its huge body trembled violently for a few times, its legs went limp and it finally fell down powerlessly, raising a cloud of dust that caused the ground to tremble slightly.

"Both of Li Ye's Pokémon have lost their ability to fight. According to the competition rules, Li Ye is eliminated!"

The referee's verdict was transmitted throughout the venue through the loudspeaker, and every word was like a knife piercing Li Ye's heart.

"what happened?"

Wang Qingping was also stunned. He opened his eyes wide and looked around blankly. His mind was a mess and he was completely confused.

Because the Charizard lost its ability to fight, the vortex of fire that had been burning and raging for a long time gradually lost its energy supply, and the light and fire slowly dissipated.

And right at the center of this vortex, the ground collapsed without warning, forming a deep, dark hole.

"Nido!"

A roar broke the brief silence, and a Nidorino covered with sharp thorns and with taut muscles rushed out of the cave like an arrow.

It had a clear target, and the cold and hard horn on its head charged straight towards the Swamp King, as fast as a flash of purple lightning.

"boom!"

There was a loud, dull bang, like a thunderclap.

The powerful and deadly horn attack hit the unsuspecting Swamp King hard.

The Swamp King didn't even have time to let out a wail before his huge body fell limply to the ground. His eyes were wide open, filled with astonishment and helplessness, and he lost his ability to fight on the spot.

"Both of Wang Qingping's Pokémon have lost their ability to fight. According to the competition rules, Wang Qingping is eliminated!" The referee's decision sounded again.

Wang Qingping: “???”

He stood there in a daze, his face instantly filled with numerous question marks, suspicion and resentment.

"Am I being picked up?"

He never imagined that after he and Li Ye tried their best and fought for a long time, they both ended up being defeated and became "stepping stones" for others.

Li Ye seemed to be under a spell of immobilization. He stared blankly at the Charizard that was lying on the ground, covered with wounds. His eyes were empty and full of sadness. He was immersed in a huge loss and could not come back to his senses for a long time.

The scene of the fierce battle just now kept flashing back in my mind. Those dangerous moments and the Charizard's tenacious resistance have now become heartbreaking memories.

"Huhaha! I picked up two more heads!"

A burst of extremely arrogant and recognizable laughter suddenly rang out, breaking the solemn silence at the scene.

Zhuge An came trotting over with his majestic fire dinosaur, a smug look on his face, his mouth grinning from ear to ear, and his unbridled laughter echoed throughout the venue.

He was obviously immersed in the joy of successfully picking up a bargain, calculating how much glory and rewards he could gain from this wave.

However, as the saying goes, "too much joy leads to sorrow". Halfway through the run, the shrill laughter stopped abruptly as if someone had turned it off.

The moment Zhuge An's gaze swept across Li Ye, his eyes almost popped out and he blurted out "Fuck". The smugness on his face froze instantly and was replaced by astonishment and panic.

"What the hell! Li Ye?! Why is it you!"

His voice unconsciously rose several degrees, full of disbelief.

It turned out that Zhuge An had just happened to pick up an opportunity and eliminated Yu Sheng and Xing Zhu. He tasted the sweetness of reaping the fruits of victory without any effort for the first time, and felt relaxed and elated all over. The feeling of reaping the benefits made him addicted.

As soon as he saw that there was another fierce battle here, he could no longer suppress his restless heart and rushed over in a hurry, thinking about making another fortune.

"Zhuge An? It's you..."

Li Ye slowly turned around and his eyes fell on Zhuge An. His eyes were like a cold pond, and the coldness was mixed with unspeakable complex emotions.

Zhuge An seemed to be burned by that gaze. He waved his hands in the air in panic and spoke as fast as a string of cannonballs:

"No, no, no, I didn't mean to. I didn't realize it was you just now."

This was true. The battle was fierce with smoke and dust billowing. Zhuge An saw the Charizard from afar, but he never expected that Li Ye's Charmeleon had completed its evolution in the middle of the game. He failed to recognize it for a while, which led to the current situation by accident.
