Pokémon: I have a game menu

It was already midnight when Naoki returned to the Pokémon Center in Oceanwing City on Charizard. After being scolded by Miss Joy who was on night watch, Naoki had a relatively good sleep. After having a late breakfast the next morning, Naoki brought his Pokémon to the Oceanwing City Gym.

There is another challenger ahead of Naoki, so Naoki needs to wait outside for a while.

"Long-tailed Fire Fox, use Phantom Ray!"

"Mount goat, get out of the way! Use Stomp!"

"The Long-Tailed Fire Fox has lost its ability to fight, and the winner is the gym trainer Fu Ye!"

As soon as Naoki walked in, the battle inside seemed to be over.

The challenger who failed the challenge came out. She was a girl whom Naoki didn't know. She was wearing a white dress and looked like she was about to cry. She was so pitiful. She glanced at Naoki and hurried out.

Naoki curled his lips, thinking that the gym trainer, Old Man Fu Ye, was really bad. A grass-attribute gym actually used ground-attribute skills to fight fire-attribute skills. It was simply unsportsmanlike and bullying a little girl.

"Are you here to challenge the gym too?" The gym trainer Master Fu followed closely behind.

Although he had only seen it from a distance before, Naoki immediately recognized the unique-looking old man. He was wearing a green top and denim overalls, a black and green hat on his head, and the same beard as his goat.

"Yes, thank you." Naoki nodded.

"Then come in." Uncle Fu said weakly, looking overworked.

Naoki thought back to yesterday's situation and roughly understood the reason for Fu Ye's behavior. High-intensity Pokémon battles are also tiring for trainers. Fu Ye, an old man over 50 years old, is really not suitable for such activities. Grandpa Kokobu, who is the same age as him, has already started training a successor.

"You already have three badges? How about we keep it simple? Let's have a 2v2 doubles match." After understanding Naoki's situation, Mr. Fu suggested.

Naoki didn't think much about it and nodded in agreement.

"Then let's get started. I've decided on these two: Lotte Kappa and Wind Fairy!"

"Charizard, Lucario!"

Both sides threw out the Poké Balls at the same time. When Naoki saw the Pokémon sent by Mr. Fu, he cursed the old man inwardly, saying that he was very bad. A duck god with fire restraint and a black-hearted cotton with the characteristic of mischief, they were simply quality players.

"Wind fairy, favorable wind! Lotte Kappa, pray for rain!"

"Charizard, use Wing Attack on Windy. Lucario, use Lightning Flash!"

Because it was only a 2v2, Naoki decided to reduce the number of people quickly first, and take advantage of the gap when the opponent's Rakuten Kappa was praying for rain to kill the uncontrollable and fragile Wind Fairy in seconds.

Wind Fairy used Tail Wind, and then Lucario came in front of Wind Fairy, and with a flash of lightning, he hit it steadily and sent it flying into the air. Charizard's wing attack followed closely and hit Wind Fairy.

The wind fairy was taken away by a combo just after she had created a tailwind, and fell to the ground, becoming a mosquito-repellent eye.

"The wind fairy has lost the ability to fight!"

Master Fu took back the wind fairy and nodded slightly.

"Lotte Kappa, use Water Cannon on Charizard!"

In the downwind and rainy weather, Rakuten Kappa was the fastest to fire the water cannon, and there was no possibility of the skill missing. The water cannon hit the Charizard in the air steadily, killing it in one shot. Naoki could accept this result. Although there was no flying skill that could cause direct damage to the grass attribute, the remaining Lucario and Rakuten Kappa were fighting alone, and Lucario still had the advantage in attributes and levels.

"Lucario, charge forward and poison attack!"

Naoki let Lucario learn the skill of Poison Attack from Korne's Hao Li, because the next gym was a grass attribute gym, Naoki naturally thought of ways to deal with the grass attribute. Not only Poison Attack, Naoki also let Lucario learn Fire Punch, Ice Punch and Swallow Return. Facing the Lotte Kappa with grass and water attributes, fire and ice have no advantage, and Poison Attack and Swallow Return both double the damage.

"Oh? Close combat? Lotte Kappa, use the tile-splitting method!"

The sight of Rakuten turning its fat body and stretching out its short arms to use the tile-splitting skill was really a bit shocking. Naoki didn't even notice that Rakuten actually brought a Pokémon with a fighting skill that hits steel. After all, high-level Pokémon have many skills, and Naoki can't see them all in an instant. Most of the time, he only looks at the level and characteristics.

However, considering Kappa's physical attack racial value of 70, the damage caused by this tile-splitting move to Lucario is very limited, and Lucario's poison attack actually hits Kappa more than half. If it hits him again, Kappa will most likely fall down.

"Lotte Kappa, use the absorbing punch!" Master Fu immediately issued the order.

"Lucario, see through it!" Naoki reacted immediately.

The characteristic of Lotte Kappa is that it can swim freely. Its speed doubles when it rains, and there is a tailwind. The opponent's attack speed is much faster than Lucario. In real Pokémon battles, it is normal to attack for multiple rounds in a row under speed suppression. If this was in the game, Naoki only needed to add one more poison attack and Lotte Kappa would have no chance to use the absorbing punch.

"We need to drag the rain and the favorable wind over."

There are about two rounds left, so it is time to use the strategy of protecting or not protecting and delaying time.

"Lucario, use high-speed movement to create distance, and harass with wave missiles!"

"Lotte Kappa, use water cannon to attack!"

Master Fu did not choose to let Lotte Kappa continue to use melee attacks, but instead chose the more powerful and stable water cannon long-range attack.

The wave missile and the water bubble collided, and the power of the former was obviously unable to offset the latter. The aftermath of the water cannon still hit Lucario, and Lucario's physical strength had reached red blood.

However, after this period of pulling, the rain and tailwind are over. Without acceleration, Rakuten Kappa's speed race value is only 70, while Lucario's is 90. In addition, Naoki's Lucario has a maximum speed effort value, and he also used high-speed movement to increase the speed during the pulling. In any case, Lucario takes the initiative.

If everyone has a fatal move, then whoever sleeps faster will win.

"Lucario, use Swallow Return to finish it off!"

"Lotte Kappa loses his ability to fight, the winner is the challenger Naoki from Miare City!"

Naoki got the plant badge of the Kaiyi City Gym as he wished, said goodbye to Mr. Fu who looked overworked and didn't want to talk, and came to the tram station. Naoki prepared to buy a ticket to Miare City in the afternoon and return to Miare City.
