Nosepass plowed a trench nearly one meter deep and seven meters long on the ring, and slowly stopped after smashing several huge rocks. After stopping, most of its body was buried in the gravel.
The exposed back part of Nosepass's head was covered with cracks like Spider Web. It looked very terrifying, as if its entire head was going to break.
After Combusken knocked Nosepass away, he also fell to the ground due to loss of strength. His chest was violently heaving and his left leg was shaking violently.
For a moment, the entire Gym fell into deathly silence, leaving only Nosepass's painful low moans and Combusken's heavy breathing.
Changfeng Morisaki looked in surprise at Nosepass, whose head was covered with cracks and had lost the ability to fight, and then looked at Combusken who was panting heavily on the ground.
He never thought that Nosepass, whose strength was close to Advanced, would be defeated by Combusken, which had only evolved in recent days.
Especially the last two consecutive kicks of Combusken. If he read correctly, the opponent merged the two skills Rock Smash and Double Kick into a combined skill.
Moreover, this combined skill clearly incorporates some techniques similar to Aikido Jujutsu, which makes this combined skill so powerful.
Changfeng Morisaki recovered from the huge shock. He took a deep breath, suppressed his worries about Nosepass's injury, and declared clearly, "Nosepass has lost the ability to fight! Therefore, the winner of this Gym Battle game is Xinhai Bai Mu trainer!"
On the other side, Roxanne's face turned pale, and her fingers were tightly clenching the skirt of her school uniform, her knuckles turning white from the exertion.
She looked at the shocking cracks on Nosepass's head, as if those cracks also appeared in her own heart, and quickly took out Poké Ball and put Nosepass in.
Roxanne clutched Poké Ball in his hand, glanced at Combusken who came to Combusken's side, checked the status of Xinhai, then turned around and ran towards the exit of the venue.
Changfeng Morisaki watched Roxanne disappear at the entrance of the passage, then walked up to Xinhai and Combusken and said, "Congratulations, trainer Bai Mu! This battle was exciting, and you won very beautifully!"
Xinhai, who noticed that Roxanne was no longer there, guessed that she should have gone to treat Nosepass. After all, Nosepass's injury was quite serious.
As for whether he will die, it can only be said that it is impossible. After all, the medical skills in the Pokémon world are very advanced. As long as Pokémon does not die on the spot, he can be saved.
Moreover, Nosepass's injury is not as terrifying as it looks. The reason why it looks like the entire back of the head is broken is mainly due to the defense-breaking effect of Rock Smash's skill.
With the physical strength of Nosepass, even if Combusken evolves again, it is absolutely impossible to break it. Roxanne is mainly concerned about chaos, otherwise it is absolutely conceivable.
Xinhai supported Combusken and smiled at Changfeng Morisaki, "Thank you for the compliment. This is all the credit of Eevee and Combusken. I just played a supporting role."
"According to the rules, this is proof of the victory you deserve." Changfeng Morisaki looked at Xinhai and Combusken and smiled, taking out a Badge from the pocket of his Gym uniform.
"Xinhai Bai Mu Trainer, the bond you have with your partners, as well as the strength and strategy shown in the battle, all prove that you are an excellent trainer. This Rock Badge belongs to you."
Xinhai looked at the Badge in front of him, which symbolized Rustboro Gym's approval, and released Eevee and Ralts, letting them witness this moment together.
"Thank you, Mr. Morisaki." Xinhai's voice was sincere. Then he stretched out his hand and solemnly took the Rock Badge from Changfeng Morisaki's palm.
The style of Rock Badge is two staggered triangular ores, while Badge is slightly cool to the touch and feels hard and heavy.
"Look, we won this together!" Xinhai's face was filled with a proud smile, and his voice was filled with the joy of victory.
"Don't be scared!" Combusken straightened his chest. Although his left leg was still shaking slightly, his eyes were as sharp as ever.
"Boo!" Eevee barked happily, its fluffy tail raised high.
"Lalu~" Ralts stretched out his small hand, as if he wanted to touch the Badge, his eyes filled with sparkling brilliance.
Looking at this heartwarming scene, Changfeng Morisaki's face was also filled with a gentle smile.
He immediately took out his Pokédex, operated it a few times, brought up the communication interface, and said, "Add a friend, I may have something to ask you in the next two days!"
Xinhai, who was a little confused, immediately took out his Pokédex and quickly scanned the other party's communication code. There was a soft "ding" sound, indicating that the friend was added successfully.
"What do you want from me? Mr. Morisaki?" Xinhai scratched his head and looked at Changfeng Morisaki with some confusion.
Changfeng Morisaki thought about it and felt that there was nothing he could not say, so he said, "Didn't you get support from Joy family a few days ago? We Rustboro Gym also have the same idea!"
Xinhai was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "You also want to invest in me?"
"Yes." Changfeng Morisaki nodded, his eyes honest, "The strength you showed during the challenge is not enough for us to invest in you. The reason why Gym Battle Pokémon's strength this time exceeds the normal challenge level is that we want to see if your current strength is worth our investment."
"Now it seems that your strength and potential are completely worth our investment." After saying that, Changfeng Morisaki looked at Xinhai and Combusken and smiled.
Xinhai nodded, and finally understood why Gym Battle's strength exceeded the standard by so much this time. This was an emotional test, and if you passed it, you could get Rustboro Gym's investment.
Changfeng Morisaki looked at the passage where Roxanne left and said, "Originally, we could sign the contract immediately after you win, but now it seems we have to wait a day or two!"
Hearing this, Xinhai scratched his head in embarrassment, but the situation at that time really did not allow them to hold back.
Although the contract cannot be signed immediately, the investment is still there, and overall it is good.
"Okay, you can leave. I will recommend Miss Roxanne's friend to you at the party. Remember to add it. Miss will talk to you about the specific investment matters then." Changfeng Morisaki waved his hand and walked towards the passage.
Xinhai looked at his back and carefully put Rock Badge into the Badge box. The slightly cool and hard Badge lay on the down of Limber's Flaaffy, shining with a steady luster.
He looked at the tired Combusken beside him and said, "Then let's go. First, go to Pokémon Center to treat you and Eevee."
After the three little ones nodded, they put them all into Poké Ball. Xinhai quickly walked out of Gym and walked in the direction of Pokémon Center.
Changfeng Morisaki walked into Rustboro Gym's treatment room and felt relieved when he saw Roxanne returning to his normal appearance and the actions of the medical staff.
He walked up to Roxanne and asked, "Miss, how is Nosepass?"
"Sister Rika said there is no life-threatening danger, and the core structure is stable. The main reason is that the surface rock shell defense layer was penetrated and destroyed by the Fighting type energy of Rock Smash's skill, causing structural damage." Roxanne's voice returned to calmness, but tears could still be seen on her face.
"The treatment device is currently repairing the structural damage of Nosepass. Sister Rika said that after treatment, you can rest for two days and avoid strenuous fighting to fully recover."
"That's good." Changfeng Morisaki nodded, "Miss, I have already told Xinhai about Gym's investment in him. I asked him to add you as a friend today. You can talk to him about the investment!"
Roxanne After being silent for a moment, he nodded and said, "I understand, I will talk to him in the next two days."
Xinhai quickly returned to Pokémon Center and waited in line for two minutes. When he came to the front desk, he handed Poké Ball and Pokédex to Joy Ya and said, "Nurse Joy, please help me treat my Pokémon!"
"Okay, please wait!" Joy Ya at the front desk smiled and took Poké Ball and Pokédex from Xinhai, and quickly started operating on the computer.
Watching the tray carrying Poké Ball being pushed away by Chansey, Xinhai came to the rest area and sat down. After releasing Ralts, he waited.
Ralts sat quietly on Xinhai's lap. He looked at this cute little guy and couldn't help but want to tease it.
