The three judges on the side couldn't help but mourn for this kid from the Sato family. After all, this Director Nakamura has a terrifying reputation that is known to everyone in the entire Rustboro City. Everyone in Rustboro City is unaware of his existence. If he is targeted by him, he will lose his skin even if he is not dead.

Kazu Sato on the ring didn't know that he had already been on Director Nakamura's death list. At this time, the veins on his forehead were beating, and his heart was filled with regret for the instruction just given.

He stared at Sneasel who was half kneeling, and noticed that although Sneasel still maintained an alert posture, he staggered obviously when he stood up. Obviously, the injury to his right leg had affected his movement.

Yingnan naturally noticed Sneasel's injuries and seized the opportunity to order, "Mudkip! Take advantage of Pursuit! Water Gun fire continuously!"

Mudkip opened his mouth wide, and five Water Gun shot out like arrows, approaching Sneasel with a sound that broke through the air.

Kazu Sato's pupils shrank and he shouted loudly, "Use Icy Wind!"

Sneasel forced his half-kneeling body, Spit Up biting cold air in his mouth, the blue and white Icy Wind collided with the five Water Gun.

The water flow condensed into ice in mid-air. Before it touched Sneasel, it fell to the ground and broke into ice crystals.

Yingnan saw that Sneasel did not move, but just stood in place and used Icy Wind. He showed a look of joy and ordered Mudkip: "Mudkip, use Rock Slide!"

Mudkip condensed dozens of sharp rocks around it, smashing towards Sneasel like a rain of stones with the sound of breaking through the air, and at the same time, it also rushed towards Sneasel.

Kazu Sato's complexion suddenly changed. He looked at Sneasel whose movement speed was greatly reduced and quickly ordered, "Use Ice Beam!"

Sneasel forced himself to straighten his body, and azure blue Ice Beam burst out from his mouth again.

The moment Ice Beam collided with Yanyu, ice crystals and gravel shot out like shotguns, once again covering the arena with a layer of mist.

Kazu Sato knew it was not over yet and shouted to Sneasel, "Sneasel, Icy Wind be on guard!"

Mudkip took advantage of the cover of Rock Slide and rushed towards Sneasel quickly. Ice crystals and gravel fell on it, but could not stop its pace.

Mudkip, who was about to break out of the mist, condensed a rock block about the same size as himself and threw it towards Sneasel.

When Sneasel, who had been on guard all the time, saw something rushing out of the mist, he quickly Spit Up directed a blast of biting cold air towards the object Spit Up.

Icy Wind quickly blew onto the object that rushed out, freezing it into ice. Only then did it see that the object that rushed out was actually a rock. At this time, Mudkip also rushed out of the mist on its left side.

Sneasel's pupils shrank suddenly, and before it could adjust its defensive posture, Mudkip opened its mouth wide and spit out a Hydro Pump.

Hydro Pump carried the force of thunder, like a giant blue cannonball that directly hit Sneasel.

Kazu Sato was shocked and shouted hoarsely, "Use Ice Beam quickly!"

Sneasel quickly spit out a Ice Beam. The moment the ice blue beam collided with Hydro Pump, the center of the arena was swallowed up by dazzling white light.

But Mudkip did not stop. It felt the flow of air and continued to rush in the direction of Sneasel.

As soon as Sneasel opened his eyes, he saw Mudkip who was already in front of him, holding a condensed water ball in his hand and throwing it towards him.

Sneasel's pupils shrank suddenly, and it almost instinctively put its claws in front of itself, trying to resist the water ball that was constantly flowing inside.

The moment the water ball touched both claws, it exploded, directly blowing Sneasel away.

"Fuck!" Sneasel let out a painful cry. Fine wounds were cut on the black fur, and blood splashed with water.

The impact of the explosion swept through Sneasel's body like a hurricane. Sneasel was blown away and fell heavily to the edge of the ring, making a heart-stopping muffled sound.

Kazu Sato shouted anxiously when he saw this, "Stand up quickly! Sneasel!"

Sneasel, who was lying on the ground, was covered in injuries. He tried to stand up, but was hit by Water Gun from Mudkip, completely unconscious.

When the countdown was over, the referee raised the flag high, and the stadium was boiling with the voice of Infiltrator: "Sneasel has lost the ability to fight! Mudkip wins! I announce that trainer Sugimoto has advanced!"

The cheers in the stadium were like a surging wave. Yingnan picked up the dirty Mudkip and celebrated the victory with his partners.

Kazu Sato took back the unconscious Sneasel with a pale face and walked down the ring in despair.

After Xinhai took notes, he looked at the people on the ring and Pokémon and smiled. To be honest, he was not very optimistic about Yingnan and Mudkip in this match.

After all, for Mudkip, Pokémon like Sneasel is still relatively difficult to deal with. However, no one expected that the other party would actually give him a chance.

This victory was so easy. Xinhai did not expect it. I am afraid even Yingnan himself did not expect it. However, it is actually normal if you think about it carefully.

Just like marching and fighting, every mistake is fatal. All you have to do is to ensure that you don't make mistakes, wait for your opponent's mistakes, seize the opportunity, and kill him with one blow.

This is the underlying logic of the Art of War, and it is also the underlying logic of the Pokémon battle.

The cheers in the stadium have not yet completely subsided, and the referee's voice appeared on the radio. "The next battle, Eguchi Trainer vs. Rock Trainer! Invite two players to come on!"

The audience was silent for a brief period, and then erupted into a more lively discussion than before.

The four judges on the judges' bench also showed serious expressions, especially Trainer Morisaki, who looked at Panshijian on the stage with an expression of anticipation.

Xinhai looked at a name on the screen and thought: 'In the last round, Panshijian's opponent was restrained by his Pokémon and was solved in a few strokes. I hope this game can force out some of his trump cards!'

Following the referee's announcement, two young trainers appeared in the contestant aisles on both sides of the ring.

Panshijian walked onto the ring with a steady pace. He was wearing a rock-colored trainer's outfit with two Luxury Ball on his waist; Eguchi Enichi was wearing a black windbreaker, staring closely at his opponent, Panshijian.

It can be seen that although he comes from a family that specializes in Water type, Panshijian still puts a lot of pressure on him.

When the referee saw that both sides were on the court, he said, "Both sides sent Pokémon!"

Panshijian was the first to throw Poké Ball, and Larvitar landed with a crash, causing cracks on the surface of the ring to form Spider Web-like patterns.

Eguchi Enichi took a deep breath and threw out his Poké Ball. With a "click", a Mudkip that was a head taller than Yingnan's Mudkip jumped into the field.

Xinhai Looking at Panshijian's Larvitar, I couldn't help feeling that this true young master is really rich.

At this time, a player in the front row opened Pokédex and heard Pokédex introduce, "Larvitar, rock plus Ground type double Type Pokémon, it has rock-like gray-green skin, and a long obtuse horn grows on the top of its head. Its eyes are red, its arms are short, and there is one toe on each foot. Its abdomen is covered with a diamond-shaped red scale, and there are four diamond-shaped black holes on its waist. The center of its tail is cone-shaped, surrounded by a plate-like structure."

"Larvitar was born deep underground and grew up relying on nutrients in the soil. It will eat soil while moving towards the ground where its relatives are. If it does not eat all the soil on the ground, it will not be able to see its parents. Because the light on the ground is dazzling, it cannot adapt well. After eating about as much soil as a mountain, it will turn into a pupa on the ground and begin to sleep in order to grow."

From this young Pokémon, you can see the horror of its final evolutionary form - Tyranitar.

I saw Larvitar quietly looking at Eguchi Enichi's Mudkip. It was obviously not a Ability like Intimidate. The power it brought with it made this Mudkip, which was much stronger than similar ones, take a step back.

Xinhai sighed in his heart: 'It seems that there is a big gap between Pseudo-Legendary. That Asakawa trainer's Bagon can't compare with this Larvitar at all. The gap is too big!'

"Both sides are ready, the battle... begins!"

As soon as the referee's flag was waved, Panshijian took the lead. "Larvitar, use Rock Slide!"

Eguchi Enichi also quickly ordered, "Mudkip, use Rock Tomb to resist!"

"Yoji!"

Larvitar raised its head and let out a short roar, stomping its right foot heavily on the ground, and the cracked ground under its feet was torn apart instantly.

The rock at the crack was controlled by Larvitar around it, and dozens of sharp rocks hit Mudkip like a rain of meteorites.

Eguchi Enichi's Mudkip slapped the ground with both palms, and blue-gray rock pillars rose from the ground, forming a semi-arc defensive barrier.

"Boom--" The loud noise of the collision between the rocks and the barrier made the venue buzz, and Rock Tomb's defense was directly broken by Larvitar.

Fortunately, Mudkip also installed two rock pillars in the inner circle, so he was not injured.

Eguchi Enichi looked at Larvitar who was rushing towards Mudkip with a solemn expression, and ordered, "Attack!"

Before Larvitar could get closer, Mudkip grabbed the largest rocks around and kept throwing them at Larvitar.

Panshijian became more serious and ordered, "Stone Edge attack!"

While Larvitar ran towards the opponent, hundreds of sharp stones gathered around him, and they were thrown at Rock Tomb which was thrown towards Mudkip.

"Larvitar, charge forward!" "Mudkip, charge forward!"

Rocks and sharp rocks collided with each other in the air, causing rubble to fly everywhere. Larvitar completely ignored the falling rubble, and Mudkip also raised a rock to cover his head and rushed towards the opponent.

Mudkip's fin claws firmly grasped the half-human-high rock above its head, and when the distance from Larvitar shortened to three meters, it threw it towards the opponent.

The boulder smashed towards Larvitar's face with a roar that ripped through the air.

Panshijian looked at the flying boulder and ordered loudly, "Use Rock Smash!"

Larvitar rushed forward, raising its right hand wrapped in red Fighting type energy, and smashed the boulder hitting it with one blow.
