Chapter 353 Have You Heard of Gravity?
The next morning, Zhou You originally planned to throw the core crystal of Deoxys into the Oak Research Institute. However, after several instruments exploded just after entering the door, he and Professor Oak realized that the core's unconscious fluctuations would interfere with the equipment, and finally had to temporarily return it to the Azure Highlands for Zekrom to take care of.
We can only wait until the professor is ready to receive it...
In any case, the second day of the Cheer Cup doubles competition arrived as scheduled. After the two selections on the first day, most of the remaining contestants were familiar faces.
In addition to the famous elite trainers, dragon tamers, and gym trainers in the Hoenn region, there were even gym owners from other regions.
What surprised Zhou You the most was that he actually saw Lei Si, who looked a bit like Kamishiro, among the contestants... Could he be Shinji's brother?
He had never seen Shinji, but at least he had seen Kamishiro. This Lei Si and Kamishiro were so similar that there was no way he could escape.
"You have been studying today's player list for a long time. Have you come up with any good tactics?" Seeing Zhou You looking at the list with great interest, Lila was somewhat curious, "Could there be any trainers on it that you are very interested in?"
"There are one or two, but it's not important."
Lei Si returned to Sinnoh after being beaten to a pulp by Kamiya in the battle frontier. Before that, he also traveled to Kanto and Hoenn, collected badges and participated in the conference. It was normal to meet here by chance.
While lamenting in his heart that the country composed of these small islands was too small, he focused his attention on the next group of opponents to be faced - the "Rolling Stone" group composed of Dujuan from Hoenn and Hyouta from Sinnoh.
The two young men, who were not much different in age from Lila, were both gym owners in their respective regions and were both experts in rock attributes. The former was a top student from Kanaz City, and the latter was born in the largest mining family in Sinnoh and had ancient elves revived from fossils.
The opponent this time is obviously a strong enemy that will make people fall into a difficult battle. Lila pondered and said, "I guess Dujuan and Hyota will probably join forces to start a sandstorm to expand the advantages of rock and earth attributes, and their rock attribute Pokémon restrain my Togekiss and your Charizard and Windy Dog. Let's consider our tactics while we can still change the team configuration."
"Don't worry, this boring theory of attribute restraint has no meaning to me." Zhou You looked unconcerned, as if he had already won.
Lila couldn't help laughing when she heard this. I'm afraid that even if she knew the attribute was unfavorable, she couldn't do anything. She knew that the opponent only had three or four Pokémon that could be used, and except for Zoroark, they were either doubled or quadrupled.
After all, he was a rookie trainer with an incomplete lineup.
Zhou You quickly saw through Lila's thoughts: "You don't believe it, the first gym I fought after my debut was a rock-type one, and I defeated Wu Gang's Geodude with just Charmander, and then tied with Onix."
Of course, it was the first badge gym battle after all, and in fact, Xiao Gang's two rock-type Pokémon didn't even use half of the rock-attribute attack moves at that time.
※In the first generation, Xiao Gang's Pokémon didn't have any rock-type moves, and the skill machine given after winning was also the general type "Endurance".
Lila's smile gradually solidified, and she found that this new trainer could always exceed her expectations.
"So do you have any plans, just like the last game?" She still liked the feeling of the tactics being linked together and everything being calculated. Since seeing Zhou You's auxiliary ability, Lila realized that she still had a lot of shortcomings in the battle that were worth learning.
Zhou You's mind went blank and he spread his hands: "I'm such a simple trainer, how can I have any tactics? Let's just fight hard and see whether their rock-type Pokémon are stronger or Charizard's claws are stronger."
...
In the blue team's player lounge, the rock-type gym leader Hyouta from Sinnoh was discussing tactics with Du Juan, who often exchanged learning experiences and academic papers with him online.
"Is that new trainer named Zhou You really as strong as you say?" Du Juan couldn't understand why the other party was so serious.
She had watched several of his matches. His tactics and strategies were easy, and every attack was almost directly aimed at the key points. No matter what attribute Pokémon the opponent sent out, he could often make Charizard use moves with favorable attributes. He is indeed a rare and reliable trainer.
But Du Juan and Hyouta are both experts in rock attributes, and they can restrain most of the opponent's Pokémon. Even if Zhou You took out Articuno, he might not be powerless.
It is a good habit to pay attention to the opponent, but it is too strange for Hyouta to treat it as a big enemy, right?
This top student girl who is intoxicated by rocks does not think that she and her husband need to stand in the position of "challenger" to face Lila and Zhou You.
In response to Du Juan's doubts, Hyota smiled helplessly: "Do you still remember who my teacher is?"
"Mr. Yaxuan?" Du Juan, who suddenly heard this name from the other party, seemed even more confused.
Yaxuan and Hyota's father Donggua are good friends, but the latter has been away from home for many years, causing Hyota to be entrusted to Yaxuan's steel island to spend his childhood since he was very young.
The reason why he was able to become the gym leader was because of Yaxuan's recommendation. Yaxuan was originally selected by the alliance as the gym leader of Black Gold City, but Yaxuan put the blame on his students.
"Yes, a few months ago, my teacher happened to fight him in the Winter Embrace Cup doubles competition held by Kona in Kanto at the Seven Islands Trainer Tower."
For some reason, Hyouta looked a little embarrassed when he mentioned this.
"My teacher lost."
Not long ago, Yaxuan and Hyouta mentioned a potential newcomer they met unexpectedly: "Although he didn't send out his strongest Pokémon, he also sent out Lucario and Metal Monster from the second team, but he was still defeated by Zhouyou, who had just left home for less than two months."
Dujuan: "???"
Is this really realistic! ?
Hyouta spread his hands helplessly: "Although it is true that his Charizard is restrained by the rock attribute, he actually has a Zoroark that he has trained for 5 years."
Illusion, teleportation, exchange of venues, imitation, wave missile, sneaking into the shadow, stand, illusion stand, stand attack, attribute change...
Hyouta counted the characteristics of the Zoroark one by one, and he felt more and more headache every time he counted one. Even Lucario, who has the power of wave guidance, can be deceived by Zoroark, and the two of them playing with stones are even more helpless.
No matter how you look at it, it is a battle that is bound to be lost. If the illusion cannot be broken, there is not even a hope of winning.
In this regard, Du Juan, as a senior student, quickly came up with a reliable idea after realizing the danger of the opponent: "Hyouta, have you heard of gravity?"
So far, the stone-loving F4 who are expected to go to Padiya to fight the Taijing Pit have all appeared...
