Chapter 503 Gym League (1)
Each battle requires you to prepare the eleven Pokémons and four substitute Pokémons in advance, with diverse attributes to complement each other. Because before the game starts, you don't know what kind of battle environment your opponent will prepare for you. Of course, each gym will have its own attribute Pokémons that it is good at, so you can basically guess the opponent's lineup and prepare countermeasures in advance.
The battles in the gym league are different from all the competitions Wang Qiyi has participated in. It simulates the battles of secret realm exploration and even simulates the mode of Pokémon war. That is, Pokémon can directly attack the trainer. Of course, it is not a real attack, but the trainer's command desk is in the field during the battle, and Pokémon can attack the command desk during the battle.
The command desk is equipped with a simulated Pokémon psychic energy shield, which can withstand three full-strength attacks from a master-level mid-level Pokémon. If the shield energy is destroyed, it means the trainer dies, regardless of whether the Pokémon on the field loses its combat ability, it is considered a failure.
"Why does it look so much like the Elf Glory game that Dandan plays, a tower-pushing game." Wang Qiyi complained after hearing the rules.
"Yes, that's right, it's this game. The Gym League is the real-life version of Pokemon Glory, and the trainer is the crystal. If it breaks, you're directly judged as the loser. Of course, it's different from the game, the Pokemon cannot be resurrected, and they're finished if they lose their fighting ability." Jin Zekai explained.
"Each game is played four times, so how do you decide the winner?"
"Look at the points. A one-on-one win gets one point, a two-on-two win gets two points, a three-on-three win gets three points, and a five-on-five win gets five points. So the last five-on-five match is decisive. Of course, if we win the previous one-on-one, two-on-two, and three-on-three matches, we don't have to play the five-on-five match and can directly win the match with six points."
After listening to the rules, Wang Qiyi nodded to show that he understood. His Pokémon were indeed unfamiliar with this rule, especially when they entered the battle, they would forget to protect the trainer. Wang Qiyi was very relieved when the Pokémon fought because Soft and Pikachu usually protected him closely. However, this competition was different. The Pokémon that appeared in the game had to protect the trainer during the battle, so they had to be trained.
Wang Qiyi's Pokémon are all very strong, so it only takes three days of training for him to become proficient in this new combat mode. Basically, he uses positioning and long-range skills to cover and protect the trainer while also taking into account combat on the field.
A few days later, Deep Blue Gym welcomed the next regular season game. Its opponent was the Thundercloud Gym from Su Province. As the name suggests, it is an electric-specialized gym, and its attributes restrain Deep Blue Gym. Deep Blue Gym had a record of 25 losses in 9 games, one of which was a loss to Thundercloud Gym, and the last time was at Thundercloud Gym's home court.
The Thundercloud Gym hosted them with the Electric Field, which increased the power of all Electric skills. For this reason, they also placed a Grass-type Geranium in the team battle to specifically target the Ground-type of the Deep Blue Gym. Among them, Qiu Leiyin's Swampert and another trainer's Swampert in the team were both Water and Ground, and were immune to Electric skills. The Deep Blue Gym relied on these two Pokémon to deal with the opponent's Electric-type.
As a result, Water and Ground were four times restrained by Grass. The quasi-legendary Geranium directly crushed Swampert, and was also at ease against the legendary Swampert, but was ultimately defeated.
This time it was the Deep Blue Gym's turn to play. Captain Qiu Leiyin called a team meeting to arrange tactics: "I decided to use the Desert Field. When paired with the Rainy Day Team, the desert will turn into a swamp. I'll send out Swamplord, who is immune to Electric-type Pokémon. In the swamp, it can exert stronger combat capabilities. Sasha will send out your Gullah as a weather player. At the same time, the Flying-type Pokémon can also contain the opponent's Grass-type Pokémon. I will also send out my ace Galleon, and Swampert will be on the field this time. Qiyi, your Pokémon are all very strong. Send out a Pokémon to fight first, and keep another Pokémon as your final trump card."
Wang Qiyi took the Gym League rulebook and read it again. "It says here that there is no limit on the number of trainers. This means that in a five-on-five team battle, one trainer can send out five Pokémon, right?"
"Yes, so I will send two in the team battle, and you also send two. This way we can guarantee a win in the team competition. As long as we get these five points, we will win this round if we win any of the previous games."
"Then leave this last round of team competition to me alone. I guarantee that I can win these five points. Captain Qiu, just focus on winning the first one-on-one. The two games in the middle don't matter."
Everyone was speechless when Wang Qiyi said this. Jin Zekai couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Qiyi, I know your Pokémon are very strong. Legendary Pokémon are invincible. But this competition can also sneak attack the trainer. I said before that the energy shield can withstand three full-strength attacks from a master-level Pokémon, but if it is a skill from a legendary Pokémon, the energy shield will be destroyed in one go."
"In a team battle, we usually send out five trainers, because five people equals five energy shields, which increases the margin of error. A trainer whose energy shield is destroyed will at most be unable to command his own Pokémon, but the Pokémon can still continue to fight. If you are alone on the field, what if you miss a skill? That would be a disaster, wouldn't it?"
"Can't we go on the field with five people? I'll keep two of them by my side to protect myself, and it'll be just three versus five on the court." Wang Qiyi muttered to himself. In fact, I can also take care of the one-on-one battles. As long as I win the one-on-one and the five-on-five, you can do whatever you want in the two games in between, and I can win this round.
Arrogant, really arrogant. Qiu Leiyin rolled his eyes in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything. After all, all his elves were killed instantly, and logically he should give up the captain's position, but Wang Qiyi signed a short-term contract and would leave after this season, so he was not made captain.
"Wang Qiyi, are you sure?" Jin Zekai knew that Qiu Leiyin did not dare to command Wang Qiyi. After all, strength is respected in the world of elves. Since Wang Qiyi is so strong, he is qualified to act according to his own ideas. If he can really guarantee that he can win the last game, and let Qiu Leiyin's ace Zhan Meilong play the first one-on-one, he can indeed win the game.
Hearing this, Wang Qiyi chuckled, "Are you worried about me? Actually, I'm not a trainer who only grew up in school as you imagined. In the three years since I became a trainer, I've been to many secret realms. I've also fought many Pokémon group battles in reality. I've fought against the Beast Tide twice, and once in the Eagle Country, where I was besieged by three Legendaries and a Legendary Trainer."
"That time, my companions and I disguised ourselves and sneaked into Eagle Country with other identities to do a secret scientific research project. As a result, we were recognized by the trainers of Eagle Country in the secret place, and they wanted to arrest me..." Wang Qiyi roughly told everyone about the trip to Eagle Country, and everyone was skeptical. Three legendary trainers plus a legendary trainer, and you can get away with that? You are not bragging!
"Okay, trust the people you employ and don't employ them if you don't trust them. Just trust Wang Qiyi." Jin Zekai made the decision.
The next evening, the trainers of Thundercloud Gym arrived at Deep Blue Gym. As the home stadium, Deep Blue Gym had already started the entrance before the game. The audience who bought tickets to watch the game entered the audience seats of the central arena one after another. Because the world champion Wang Qiyi joined this battle, the pre-match publicity was very strong, so that the tickets were sold out as soon as they went on sale.
The home game of Deep Blue Gym has never been so crowded. Even the snack vendors at the door were very happy. They made a lot of money today.
"Don't worry, everyone. Even though Wang Qiyi is a legendary trainer, he is only eighteen years old after all. He simply doesn't have the energy to cultivate so many Pokémon. Information shows that he has three strongest Pokémon: the red Gyarados, the green Bloodwing Dragonite, and the Ditto that can transform into Mewtwo. I guess the Deep Blue Gym will save Wang Qiyi's trump card for the last game in order to win the last 5 points in the team battle, so we will put all our main players in the first three games. As long as we win the first three games, we don't have to play the fourth game at all, which will directly kill Wang Qiyi's chance to play." The captain of the Thunder Cloud Gym encouraged the players in the lounge.
