Although the brief interruption of Lorelei and Lance appearing in his livestream one after another had caused a stir, it hadn't slowed Qingyu's climb up the rankings.
Over the course of his hour-long stream, Qingyu easily won several matches with this simple, brutally effective sun strategy.
Whether he switched out his weather setter, Torkoal, at the start and brought in another Pokémon to cover the matchup, or caught his opponent off guard by ordering Torkoal to fire off an Eruption immediately, both approaches worked extremely well.
Against Water-types, Qingyu had Gastrodon to comfortably soak up their attacks, while other teammates could switch in against Ground- and Rock-types.
It was called a Sunny Day Team, but in practice, every weakness its Fire-types faced could easily be handled with a simple switch.
After watching several battles, the viewers suddenly felt as though everything had clicked-
[I really get it this time! If the opening matchup is good, just blast them. If it's bad, switch. How am I this smart?!]
[Usually, people who start bragging before they've even tried it get humbled after a few ranked matches...]
[We really can learn Teacher Yu's strategies, but getting good results still seems to depend heavily on the fundamentals. What rookie Trainer knows all this stuff?]
[Stop calling me out, stop calling me out! I'm already memorizing the Pokédex. The day I emerge from training is the day I crush the Sunshine Gym. Prepare to die, Teacher Yu!]
[Hope they're okay.jpg]
Amid the viewers' laughter and chatter, the time soon reached seven thirty.
After ending his stream right on schedule as usual, Qingyu looked at the long string of victory icons on the screen and nodded in satisfaction.
"Just as I thought. A cohesive strategy is still far too overpowered for ordinary Trainers right now."
