Chapter 34: Werewolf vs. Wood Gecko

Xia Yu was quite surprised that Wu Yaozu's Rock Dog actually evolved into a Werewolf. It seemed that yesterday's failure had a great impact on the Rock Dog.

Seeing the surprised look on Xia Yu's face, Wu Yaozu was quite satisfied. This was the effect he wanted. He couldn't help but reveal a smug look on his face. He was confident of winning today's battle: "I said today is the day for my revenge. Admit defeat, Xia Yu."

Xia Yu doesn't care about winning or losing. After all, this is just a competition between friends, not a life-and-death battle. Winning or losing is secondary. The key is to train Pokémon.

"Buzz Bat, the opponent has become stronger again. Are you confident?" Xia Yu said to Buzz Bat.

"Buzz!" the buzz bat responded with a timid look on his face.

In the previous battles with the Rock Dog, Buzz Bat was defeated without exception, which made it a little timid towards the Rock Dog. Now that the Rock Dog has evolved into a dusk form of the Maned Rock Werewolf, the gap in strength is even greater, so Buzz Bat will naturally feel timid.

"Don't be afraid. It's just stronger than you now. You will definitely be stronger in the future. If you don't even have the courage to fight, you will never become stronger." Xia Yu first comforted the buzz bat, and then continued to encourage the buzz bat, trying to cultivate its brave character.

"Buzz." Hearing Xia Yu's encouragement, Buzz Bat responded again, this time with a louder voice, and there was a hint of determination as he looked at the Mane Rock Werewolf.

"Yes, that's it." Xia Yu said.

"Hey, hey!" Wu Yaozu on the opposite side shouted, "Why do I feel like I've become the villain? How long are you going to do this?"

"Sorry for the long wait, Fatty Wu. Let me show you the bond between Buzz Bat and me." Xia Yu encouraged Buzz Bat loudly, but he knew in his heart that Buzz Bat would definitely be killed instantly by the Werewolf.

Fatty Wu was so angry that he could no longer bear it and ordered the Mane Rock Werewolf to attack: "Mane Rock Werewolf, rock blockade!"

"Buzzbat, use ultrasound."

Fatty Wu wanted the Wolf Mane to use rocks to blockade and get rid of the Buzz Bat in one move, but Xia Yu also wanted to give it a try. If the Buzz Bat could hit the ultrasonic wave, then there would be a chance of winning.

The Wolf Man and the Buzzing Bat attacked almost at the same time. The Wolf Man controlled the rocks on the ground and flew towards the Buzzing Bat, while the Buzzing Bat released ultrasonic skills towards the Wolf Man.

"I've been on guard against this move of yours, Werewolf of the Rock. Get out of the way." The two had fought each other many times, and Fatty Wu had long been troubled by this ultrasonic move, so he was naturally always on guard.

When the Buzz Bat released the ultrasonic wave, the Wolf Man immediately moved quickly and easily avoided the ultrasonic skill with its speed advantage.

In the game, although the ultrasonic skill is powerful, it also has a fatal flaw, which is the low hit rate of only 55%.

In reality, ultrasound also has many disadvantages. For example, using sound skills to cover it, or dodging it with the advantage of speed, etc. are all ways to crack ultrasound skills.

After dodging the ultrasonic skill, Wolfman controlled the rock to fly towards the Buzz Bat, bombarding it and easily defeated it.

"Come back, Buzzbat."

Naturally, this game ended with Buzz Bat's defeat. Xia Yu took Buzz Bat back and put it on the side of the field, letting it have a good rest. At the same time, he learned seriously from Wood Gecko, especially his backbone and courage.

…………

Even though he only defeated one Buzzbat, Wu Yaozu was still smiling happily. He looked at Xia Yu in a very pretentious manner and said, "Your talent as a trainer is the best I've ever seen except for me, but you are still a little bit worse than this genius trainer. Come on, release your second Pokémon."

When it comes to showing off, Fatty Wu really has something.

"Go, Bokeh." Xia Yu's second Pokémon was naturally Bokeh.

When the Wood Gecko saw that its opponent was an evolved Lycanthropus, a hint of surprise flashed in its eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a strong desire to fight. This is the character of the Wood Gecko. Unlike the Buzz Bat, the stronger the opponent, the more excited it can be.

"Boshige, the opponent is stronger than yesterday, you must go all out." Xia Yu said.

"Mu." The Wood Gecko made a short sound and simply responded to Xia Yu, his eyes still fixed on the Wolf Mane.

"It's time to take action, Fatty Wu." Xia Yu said.

"Just prepare to be killed." Fatty Wu responded.

"Wooden Gecko, Green Grass Field!" The difference in strength makes the choice of tactics extremely important. It is obvious that it is impossible for Wood Gecko to eliminate the Wolf Mane in a short time. Therefore, after preparing for a protracted war, Xia Yu chose to let Wood Gecko use the Green Grass Field skill.

[Grass Field] A grass-type transformation skill that turns the field into a grass field within 5 turns. Pokémon on the ground can be restored every turn, and the power of grass-attribute moves can be increased.

This is the effect in the game. The skills of the green grass field in reality are similar to those in the game. The only difference is that the field time is affected by the user and can be destroyed.

As fierce grass-type energy erupted from the wood gecko's body, the ground instantly became covered with green grass and grass-type energy surged.

"Long Howl, Wolfman!" Wu Yaozu was completely different from his honest appearance at this moment. Instead, he behaved extremely cunningly. He had fought with Xia Yu so many times and had long guessed that Wood Gecko would use the Green Grass Field skill at the first opportunity. Therefore, he chose to let Wolfman use the Long Howl skill to strengthen his attack.

[Long Howl]: A general transformation skill. Roaring loudly to increase momentum, thereby increasing one's attack by one level.

As the Wolfman howls, its attack is enhanced, making the Wolfman, which already has extremely high attack, even more terrifying.

Both sides adopted enhanced tactics in the first round and appeared to be extremely cautious. Although this was just a competition, the assassins on both sides were extremely serious.

"Mane Rock Werewolf, charge the rock!"

After strengthening, it will naturally come into play. Wu Yaozu chose to let the Mane Werewolf use the Rock Rush skill.

[Rock Rush]: A rock-type physical skill that quickly rams into the opponent to attack. It will definitely attack first.

The reason for choosing this skill is, first, because this skill, like Lightning Flash, is a priority skill and is extremely fast; second, rock skills have a bonus for the rock-attributed Lycanroc; third, because the dusk form of Lycanroc has extremely good hard claws, the power of contact moves will be increased. Combining the above three reasons, the Rock Rush skill is undoubtedly the best choice.

The body of the Wolf Mane was covered with rock energy, and it slammed into the Wood Gecko at such a fast speed that the Wood Gecko had difficulty reacting.

"Wood Gecko, use parasitic seeds." Xia Yu commanded calmly. Since he couldn't dodge, he might as well not dodge and counterattack when the Wolf Mane got close.

"boom!"

The Werewolf crashed into the Wood Gecko, knocking it away. The bonus of this series of moves, plus the increased attack power from the Howl and the improvement of the Hard Claws feature, increased the power of the Rock Rush skill to an extremely high level, severely damaging the Wood Gecko with one move.

However, the Wood Gecko also took the opportunity of the contact between the two sides to use its shameless Parasitic Seed skill.

[Parasitic Seed]: A Grass-type transformation skill. After implanting the Parasitic Seed, it will absorb the opponent's physical strength bit by bit in each round and restore the same amount of physical strength to itself.

The parasitic seeds in reality are slightly different from those in the game. The parasitic seeds in reality can be released in two ways. The first one has the same effect as in the game, throwing small seeds to parasitize and restore physical strength.The second is to form a seed net to directly trap the opponent like Ash's Frog Seed in the animation. This method can only trap Pokémon that are much weaker than oneself, otherwise the opponent can easily break free.

At this time, the Wood Gecko naturally used the first method, because the second method would not be able to trap the Wolf Mane at all.
