A duel between two Water-type Starter Pokémon?
After hearing this, May also became interested, so before the two started fighting, she took out Pokédex and swept it towards the Piplup.
Pokédex also gave feedback quickly.
"Dip, Piplup, penguin Pokémon, Water-type, always falls down when walking, but its strong self-esteem allows it to hold its chest high in any situation, loves the cold, and is good at swimming. Although it looks as cute as a child, it is arrogant and unwilling to accept charity from humans. Because it does not listen to Pokémon Trainer's instructions, it is very difficult to have a good relationship with it."
What, it sounds like a Pokémon that has a lot of personality and is very difficult to control!
But no matter what, it is still very rare for two people with the same attribute Starter Pokémon from different regions to meet!
This also made May take a step back with interest, and planned to take a good look at how both sides would perform in this game.
Seeing that the two Pokémon were ready, the little boy suddenly pointed at himself.
"Before the war begins, it is a courtesy to announce your name. Listen up, I am Barry, but I want to be the strongest Pokémon Trainer!"
Just like his character, you can hear a strong sense of confidence in his words.
Xia You nodded and introduced himself, "I am Xia You."
With such a simple sentence, he seemed unwilling to mention anything else about himself. Fortunately, the little boy also had no reaction to this name. It seemed that before this, he didn't pay much attention to the news in other regions.
This is just right.
It also makes Xia You worry-free and doesn't have to worry about being misunderstood and bullied.
After all, if word spreads, it would not be a glorious thing for Champion, who was from three regional conferences, to beat up newcomer Pokémon Trainer at Starting Town.
In the field, no one needed to say start. The moment the two Pokémon looked at each other, the battle started directly.
In terms of attributes, although the two Pokémon are both Water-type, their fighting methods are also different because of their different abilities.
Just like Froakie, its speed is undoubtedly its advantage compared to Bounce. Except for Piplup's slightly slower speed, its other abilities are very average. This also made the two Pokémon adopt different strategies at the beginning of the battle.
Piplup stood where he was and turned to Froakie Spit Up Water Gun.
I have to say that this kind of attack method is also very consistent with the playing style of most newcomers Pokémon Trainer.
After all, they were not very experienced at this time and did not have a deep understanding of combat. They only knew how to attack randomly, treating Pokémon more as a turret that did not move very much.
Compared with it, under the command of Xia You, Froakie is much more flexible.
In other words, under the command of Xia You, it knows how to move and fight at the same time.
I saw it first running quickly to one side, and then when Piplup's Water Gun moved with it, it suddenly turned back to the other side, pulling out a certain safe space, and then quickly ran towards Piplup. When Piplup's water ball failed to recover, it slapped Piplup hard like a frog paw wearing a white glove.
Piplup was slapped twice, staggered, took a few steps back, and then fell to the ground on his back.
Seeing this, May shook his head helplessly.
First of all, it is not difficult to see from the command just now that this person named Barry is indeed a newcomer.
Otherwise, he would not have used water balls of the same attribute to attack Froakie as soon as he came up. It can be said that he made a mistake that every novice would make.
Compared with him, Xia You is...
There was almost no need to think about it. With his rich experience and just a casual order, he easily gained the upper hand.
In fact, she can also see that in terms of strength, these two Pokémon are similar. They are both newly conquered Pokémon. The only difference is that one was received from the research institute, while the other was captured by Wilderness.
But all in all, they are not very strong.
Therefore, what really determines their victory or defeat is undoubtedly their respective Pokémon Trainer's commanding abilities, and in this regard, the two of them are worlds apart.
This also made Froakie win this battle easily even though it took a little trouble.
"Damn it!"
And seeing his Piplup fall, Barry just felt like he couldn't use any strength. He was beaten the whole time, and the loss was very humiliating!
In fact, after getting Piplup from Sandgem Town's Professor Rowan, he also traveled for several days, during which time he naturally also interacted with Wilderness Pokémon has fought before, and even against two newcomers Pokémon Trainer, but no matter which battle, he won, and he has never fought so embarrassingly!
There are obviously many opportunities that look good, but they are always easily resolved by the Pokémon named 'Froakie' on the opposite side. This makes him extremely depressed because of his impatient personality.
Especially when he saw the scene of the man high-fiving Froakie after winning the victory, it stimulated him even more!
And just when he was unwilling to give up and wanted to propose another fight with Xia You, before he could speak, he saw another person walking from the side.
Not only Barry, but Xia You and May also heard this person's footsteps.
When Xia You looked back, he saw a man with purple-grey half-long hair, who looked about 16 or 7 years old, wearing dark outdoor clothing, walking closer with a Elekid.
Although Xia You met him for the first time, he still recognized his identity at a glance.
No way, it's so impressive!
It is none other than Sinnoh Region, another strong enemy of Ash, who also believes in Pokémon's supremacism—Paul!
Xia You doesn't want to comment on Shinji as a person and his character. After all, everyone has different opinions. Some people dislike him, while others naturally like him.
Xia You It's just a little strange, why did you meet this person here?
You know, Paul is not a newbie.
I still remember that in the anime, he once revealed to Ash that he had traveled to several places such as Kanto Region, Johto Region, Hoenn Region, and such a person should not appear near Starting Town like Sandgem Town.
But then I thought about it, even I was wandering around Sandgem Town, so it was not so strange that Paul also appeared here.
After walking to a few people, Paul first glanced at Barry, then turned his attention to Xia You and sneered.
"I didn't expect that the winner of the grand competition would come to a place like this to bully the newcomer Pokémon Trainer. The battle between such weak Pokémon is really low-interest. It seems that Pokémon Tournament, anyone can win the championship."
Xia You also didn't expect that Paul actually knew him, and would be so rude when they met!
However, it also indirectly explained that when he was fighting Barry just now, he must have been hiding not far away and peeking for a while!
This also made Xia You frown.
Just as he was about to say something, May on the side immediately became angry when he heard that this man dared to mock Xia You!
"What did you say!?" She glared at Paul and said sternly, "Who are you? How dare you comment on others like this!?"
"Didn't I make it clear enough?" Paul didn't look at May at all. He just stared at Xia You and snorted coldly, "You have already gained such a reputation, but you don't pursue higher achievements. Instead, you use this weak Pokémon to fight back and forth with a newcomer. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
At this time, Barry was already confused.
What!?
The person I just fought against turned out to be a conference Champion!?
What is going on!?
Are you kidding!!
But seeing the reactions of these three people except himself, he knew that this should be true.
No wonder he is so powerful, he can hit me so hard that he has no power to fight back...
After thinking about this, Barry had the same idea as Paul.
That is to say, since you are already so powerful, why do you still want to fight with yourself!?
It's like cheating, is it because you think you're easy to bully?
At this moment, he suddenly felt grateful to this man who also appeared suddenly later. After all, it was because of him that he helped him uncover the 'truth' of the matter!
Xia You turned around and faced Paul.
"According to what you said, what kind of person should I fight?"
Paul said of course, "Of course they are the strong ones."
Xia You suddenly laughed, "Are you?"
Feeling that his tone had changed, Paul raised his eyebrows. "What?"
Xia You repeated, "I'm asking, are you a strong person?"
"Of course." Paul's tone was filled with a touch of confidence, "Although I'm still traveling around and haven't become a member of any conference Champion, that's a matter of time, and my future achievements will definitely surpass yours!"
So confident!
But when I think about this person being Paul, and his pursuit of the powerful Pokémon, it's not so strange.
But this is not the reason why Xia You lets him go.
If you dare to say such words in front of yourself, you must be aware of it!
"If that's the case, let's have a fight." He said calmly, "Dare to say such things, it proves that you must have some ability, then let me see it."
"That's exactly what I meant."
Maybe I just heard the name Xia You and knew some of his deeds, but I didn't really watch the game, or maybe I just saw two newbies Water-type The battle between Pokémon made Paul think that Champion's level was nothing more than this. Therefore, after hearing Xia You's request for a battle, he had no fear at all and instead stood directly in front of Xia You.
Seeing that these two people wanted to fight, Barry hesitated for a moment, and out of his affection for Paul, he couldn't help but give a reminder.
"Be careful, he is very powerful!"
Paul glanced at him and didn't say anything, but he also had a deeper impression of him.
Seeing these two people's appearance, Xia You couldn't help but look at them deeply.
In fact, in the anime, Barry admires Paul very much and often praises Paul's training methods. He also wants to become Pokémon Trainer like Paul. It can be said that he regards Paul as his idol.
But the real meeting between the two was already in the second half of Sinnoh's journey in the anime. Unexpectedly, due to some strange combination of circumstances, his appearance today caused the two to meet in advance, and just like in the anime, Barry showed signs of looking up to Paul as his idol!
I can only say that things like fate are really unpredictable sometimes.
But the surprise is surprise, it has nothing to do with Xia You.
What he has to do now is to hammer Paul into the ground just like he did when he fought against Barry, so that he can understand what the sky and the earth are!
And Paul obviously has the same idea.
For this person who in the near future would even dare to directly challenge Cynthia, and was beaten four times by Cynthia with a Garchomp, rubbed against the ground, and finally gave up without fighting. Now, because he has not realized how powerful a person of this level is, and has never experienced such a painful experience, he will naturally not be afraid of Xia You's challenge.
It can be said that only after being truly educated will he truly realize the power of people like Xia You!
Because neither of them wanted to talk too much nonsense with the other party, they did not agree on how many Pokémon each would send.
I saw Paul pointing forward, and Elekid, who had been following him, immediately took a few steps forward and stood in front of Xia You.
This guy...
Seeing his choice, Xia You couldn't help but feel doubtful.
Use Elekid?
He doesn't think he will send Froakie, does he?
Or does he think that just one Elekid can defeat me?
He was really underestimated.
With a groan in his heart, Xia You stopped the eager Froakie and took out another Poké Ball from his pocket.
As Blue Light flashed by, the next second, his Charizard appeared in the center of the field.
However, unlike in the past, after appearing this time, Charizard did not roar to promote his power. He just lowered his head and looked at Elekid in front of him.
It's not that it underestimates its opponent, it's that the enemy in front of it is too weak, so weak that it can't feel any threat!
He looked back at his Pokémon Trainer suspiciously and saw Xia You nodding. Although Charizard was confused, he still focused on Elekid.
At the same time, Elekid suddenly felt a great pressure, and under the influence of this momentum, it subconsciously took several steps back!
This also made Paul frown immediately.
He really didn't expect that one day his Pokémon would look like this just by looking at his opponent!
Useless stuff!
Unlike Paul who was completely unaware of the situation, May was also shocked when he saw Xia You sending out this Charizard.
She naturally knows the strength of this Pokémon.
But before that, she thought that Xia You would send Pokémon like Dragonite and Metagross to play. She really didn't expect that Xia You would be so cruel and chose Charizard!
It can also be seen from this that Xia You really wants to teach this person a lesson!
