Chapter 1045: Ultra-Giant Lapras vs. Manabu
"Laplace." Xia Yu spoke in a deep voice, his eyes falling on the thousand-needle fish on the lake, with a confident light in his eyes.
In fact, he and the Thousand Needle Fish are old rivals. Although every battle ended in his defeat, this time is different.
The permanent Gigantamax Lapras who has entered the master level is the absolute king!
"Super Giant Aurora Melody!" As Xia Yu's voice fell, the battle officially began.
"Woo!"
Gigantamax Laplace raised its head and slowly opened its mouth, emitting a clear, high-pitched chanting sound that carried a hint of chill and endless ethereality.
A snowy glow surged from its entire body, and ice energy turned into several torrents, gathering around its body and merging with the sound of the chanting.
It was like a clear spring rushing through a mountain stream, or like a lone goose flapping its wings and crying in the sky, leaping, and dancing, eventually transforming into a beam of icy energy rising into the sky and piercing through the clouds.
Ice fog filled the air, and endless cold air surged outward, covering the sky with a layer of frost.
At the same time, the chanting of Gigantamax Laplace came to an abrupt halt. Its eyes were covered with a terrifying cold light, shining like two bright lamps in the mist.
"Boom!"
There was a deafening sound in the sky, and countless ice balls fell from the sky, drawing beautiful arcs in the air, and fell towards the thousand needle fish in the lake like a meteor shower.
The cold air was raging, forming a thick layer of ice on the ice surface.
The needle fish gently shook its body, easily breaking through the ice, and then suddenly dived under the lake, submerging its body in the bottomless water.
This is its home advantage. Lizhi Lake is its natural first barrier, enough to slow down the incoming attacks.
But this time, the Manefish obviously underestimated the attack of Gigantamax Lapras!
"boom!"
I saw a huge ice ball hitting the lake, breaking the ice, creating huge waves, and then exploded like a bomb, turning into a surge of ice energy that gushed out!
The cold ice energy instantly froze the surface of the lake, and almost instantly froze the lake water, spreading outward like a virus, rushing towards the thousand-needle fish along the surging sea water!
At this moment, the sea water that acted as a barrier became the medium for transmitting ice energy. Countless ice balls exploded one after another. The ice energy surged from all directions like a tide, and almost instantly touched the body of the needle fish, invading its body and freezing its body!
The biting coldness came over them, as if it was going to freeze the life of the needle fish.
"boom!"
At this moment, the Ten Thousand Needles Fish finally exploded, and deep purple poison energy continued to surge out, wrapping its body, blocking the invasion of ice energy, and then turned into countless sharp poison needles and flew out, attacking the Gigantamax Laplace!
Thousand poisonous needles!
The signature move of the Man's Needle Fish family, only the Thousand Needle Fish and the Man's Needle Fish can learn it.
The power of the Thousand Poison Needles is not terrible, but it has two powerful effects. One is that there is a certain chance that the opponent will fall into a poisoned state. Combined with the stinger characteristic, the chance of poisoning will be greatly increased.
Another effect is that the power is doubled for those in poisoned or highly poisonous states!
…………
Countless poisonous needles were flying in the air... Although they were called poisonous needles, it would be more appropriate to describe them as poisonous spears.
After all, there is no poison needle that is three or four meters long. The strange deep purple light emitting from the tip of the needle is chilling.
In the previous battles, Xia Yu suffered a great loss from the Thousand Poison Needles!
The thousand poisonous needles skill of the Needle Fish is definitely its trump card.
First of all, the Thousand Poison Needles are ejected at an extremely fast speed. Secondly, the flight trajectory of the Thousand Poison Needles is quite strange and difficult to grasp. Finally, the toxicity of the Thousand Poison Needles is extremely shocking!
As a Pokémon that once reached the quasi-god level, the poison ability of Falconfish is definitely the strongest among all the poison-type Pokémon Xia Yu has ever seen!
Its power is mainly reflected in three aspects: first, its toxicity is strong; second, its chance of poisoning is high; and third, its effect is fast.
High toxicity means that once poisoned, the person will fall into a highly poisonous state, not just ordinary poisoning.
The high poisoning probability means that the ability of the Thousand Needles to poison the opponent is almost 100%. At least in the first few battles, as long as the poison needles hit, Xia Yu's Pokémon will definitely fall into the poisonous state, which is also one of the reasons why Xia Yu lost.
The quick effect means that once a Pokémon is poisoned, it will lose its combat capability in two or three minutes at the shortest, or five or six minutes at the longest!
If Xia Yu doesn't solve the problem of the Needle Fish's ability to use poison, he will never be able to defeat the Needle Fish.
…………
Xia Yu raised his head and looked towards the sky. Countless poisonous needles dragged purple tails, drawing strange arcs in the air, rushing towards the Super Gigantamax Laplace from all directions!
"Laplace!" Xia Yu's voice suddenly sounded, his tone confident and calm.
After suffering several losses from the poisonous thousand needles skill of the Ten Thousand Needles Fish, Xia Yu learned his lesson. He had simulated this situation countless times before coming here to take the test, and he had already made a plan in his mind!
As Xia Yu's voice sounded, brilliant auroras flashed around the body of the Gigantamax Laplace.
The aurora curtain formed by the super-giant aurora melody acted as the first barrier, blocking a considerable number of poison needles.
Then, Gigantamax Laplace suddenly erupted with ice energy, forming a solid ice wall around its body, acting as a second barrier and blocking some of the poison needles!
Finally, it surrounded the super giant Laplace ice particle ring, rotating at high speed, as if surrounded by a circle of musical halo, acting as the third barrier to block the final poison needle!
The three barriers formed a perfect defense network for Gigantamax Laplace, blocking the attack of the Manabuzz!
Seeing that the defense was effective, Xia Yu continued to shout out orders: "Laplace, quick victory, huge water flow!"
Xia Yu's voice rang out, and from the beginning of the battle he ordered Laplace to launch the most powerful attack.
First there was the super giant aurora melody, and then there was the giant water flow.
He wanted Laplace to use continuous and fierce attacks to directly crush the Needlefish and not give it any chance to turn around!
The water energy surged rapidly, and almost in an instant it gathered on the body of Gigantamax Laplace to form a huge water ball.
Although Water Stream is just an ordinary Dynamax move and not an exclusive Gigantamax move, you should know that Lapras has fused the Water Drop Slate, and Lapras is a dual-attribute Pokémon of Water and Ice!
The bonus from this system plus the bonus from the Water Drop Slate allow Gigantamax Laplace to control water energy far better than ice energy.
"boom!"
The sky became moist, and a heavy rainstorm came. A huge column of water burst out at an astonishing speed, like a giant dragon that had broken free from its restraints, roaring and tearing through the ice mist on the lake, bombarding the needle fish, not giving it any chance to dodge!
