Pokémon: I have a game menu

"Naoki, I've been waiting for you for a long time! Let me see the results of your special training!"

"This is my first Pokémon! Come on, Electric Spider!"

Shockwave is a relatively common Pokémon in singles. Its Electric and Bug types make it only have two weaknesses: Rock and Fire. In addition, its Speed ​​race stat of 108 is quite good, so it can use Sticky Web safely, and use electromagnetic waves to paralyze the opponent's starting Pokémon.

"Fangtooth Land Shark, the decision is yours!"

Naoki's first weapon is the Sharptooth Land Shark, which has the strongest effect on restraining electricity. He has no way to stop the Electric Spider from spreading its sticky web, so he can only make sure to get rid of it as quickly as possible.

"Electric Spider, use sticky web!"

As expected, Hitron let Electric Spider use Sticky Web first. The effect of this skill is to reduce the speed level of the opponent's substituted Pokémon by one level, which is similar to skills such as Scattering and Invisible Rock.

The electric spider spit out large spider webs, covering the entire battle arena.

"Sharptooth Land Shark, use Rock Blockade!"

The Sharptooth Land Shark threw a giant rock at the Electric Spider, successfully dealing more than half of the damage, but it was still a long way from being an instant kill.

"Sharptooth Land Shark, continue using the rock block attack!"

"Electric Spider, use Bugsong!"

The electric spider used the insect buzz to reduce some of the fanged land shark's physical strength, and was hit by the rock block and lost its ability to fight. As a starting Pokémon, it has done everything it needs to do.

"Then this is my second Pokémon. Come on, Rotom!"

Citron's second Pokémon is Rotom in refrigerator form, Frozen Rotom, with the attributes of Electric and Ice. It has undoubtedly learned Blizzard, which can quadruple restrain Garchomp. Its characteristic is floating, so its weaknesses are only fire, fighting and rock. Since Pokémon cannot be exchanged when the opponent replaces a new Pokémon, Naoki cannot let Charizard or Lucario directly replace him. If he replaces him later, he will have to take a hit for nothing. Neither Charizard nor Lucario are suitable for rotation, so Garchomp can only continue to stand on the field.

"Rotom, use Blizzard!"

Rotom's speed was much faster than that of Land Shark, and Blizzard did not miss a target. Land Shark's strength was almost drained in an instant, and it lost its ability to fight.

Naoki thought for a moment and sent Lucario out. There was a sticky net on the field, and if he sent Charizard in, if the opponent attacked first, Naoki was sure that Charizard would not be able to kill the opponent in one hit, and the opponent's Rotom would definitely be able to kill Charizard with two 100,000 Volts, so it would not work.

"Rotom, use 100,000 volts!"

"Lucario, use close combat!"

Lucario took the opponent's 100,000 volts head-on and used close combat to beat the opponent badly.

The defense racial stats of Frozen Rotom are quite outstanding, and Citron's should be the type with some durability added to the effort value. Lucario's close combat failed to kill the opponent instantly, but it was almost there. After a subsequent preemptive sonic punch, Rotom still lost his combat ability.

"Come back, Rotom. You've done a great job."

"Next, Photoelectric Fly Lizard, I'm counting on you!"

Hitler replaced it with the Photonic Flying Lizard, which has ground-attribute moves. However, the Photonic Flying Lizard's attributes are electric and normal, and it is also doubly restrained by Lucario's Fighting-attribute. Even if the Photonic Flying Lizard is faster than Lucario, Lucario's physical defense has dropped by one level. The Photonic Flying Lizard cannot use its pitifully low physical attack to kill Lucario, who still has half of his health, with just one stomp.

The Photonic Flycatcher's paper-thin physical defense and stamina make it absolutely impossible for it to withstand Lucario's close combat.

"No, for the special attack of the Lightning Flying Lizard, it only needs to use 100,000 volts." Naoki suddenly realized that after using close combat, Lucario's special defense also dropped by one level, and now it is absolutely unable to withstand another 100,000 volts. Naoki found that he always thought too much about attribute restraint and almost forgot the most important value, almost making a big mistake.

"Lucario, use Sonic Punch!"

In this situation, we can only use the sonic punch to knock down some of the photoelectric lizard's physical strength. It is absolutely impossible to kill it.

"Photoelectric Fly Lizard, use 100,000 volts to solve it!"

"Sure enough." Naoki breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he reacted quickly.

"Come back, Lucario. It's up to you from now on. Come on, Gardevoir!"

"Photoelectric Flycatcher, use parabola to charge!"

"Gardevoir, meditate!"

Parabolic Charge is a 65-power electric-attribute special attack skill that attacks surrounding targets and causes damage, while restoring the player's own HP by "the total damage caused to all targets x 50%".

In doubles matches, this skill is still somewhat useful, but in singles, the effect of this skill is somewhat useless.

But this is not something Naoki needs to worry about. Now is a good time to strengthen meditation!

"It's useless Naoki, I have a special countermeasure!"

"Photoelectric Fly Lizard, use strange electric waves!"

"Gardevoir, use mental strength!"

Naoki sighed. The effect of the strange electric wave was to reduce the opponent's special attack by two levels. His wish to strengthen Gardevoir's meditation was thwarted. He could only get rid of it before the opponent used it again.

"Come back, photoelectric toad lizard."

"Huh - you almost succeeded. If I hadn't been prepared, I, as a gym leader, would have had to admit defeat in the gym challenge." Hitlon shook his head helplessly.

"Brother, there's a new challenger coming!" Yulijia ran out of the elevator, looking a little anxious.

"There are four of them!"

"Huh?!" Hitlon screamed.

"How about this, Naoki, let's treat this battle between us as a three-on-three battle!" With a righteous look on his face, Hitlon took out the certificate of victory in the Gym Challenge - the Voltage Badge and stuffed it into Naoki's hand.

"Ah? Isn't that a bit too hasty?"

"Oh, it's okay. We usually play three-on-three anyway. Six-on-six was just a whim of mine. Your strength is definitely enough to get this badge. If you need it next time, we can have another fight to make up for it." Hitron shook his head.

"The gym leader really has a hard time!" Naoki sighed.

"Yes, I have to work every day and I don't have any time at all. The progress of my new invention has been delayed for many days. My family is always urging me to get married, but I simply don't have any time at all."

The topic has become heavy without us noticing...

"When you reach my age, you may understand. Oh! I won't say anymore. The challenger is coming."

I don’t know why, even though he got the voltage badge, Naoki couldn’t be happy at all, and his mood became inexplicably heavy.
