----------

"Bang!" Smoliv's tiny body was sent flying backward, landing on the ground.

"Success! Sunny Day was finally used just before the rock hit, but unfortunately, Smoliv was also hit hard. Can she stand up again?"

Marcus' clenched fists relaxed at this moment, and a familiar smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Perhaps no other Smoliv could withstand this level of difference, but his Smoliv had extreme dual defenses. He had absolute confidence in this!

Sure enough, under everyone's gaze, Smoliv struggled to get up, her small face resolute in the sunlight.

"Tsk... You didn't even knock it out..." The opposite Joe shook his head disdainfully: "Graveler, use Defense Curl and then keep using Rollout!"

Defense Curl: Defense increases by 1 level, and the body becomes round, which can effectively increase the power of Rollout.

Rollout: Rock Type physical attack, power 30, continuously increases speed to roll and collide with the opponent, and the power doubles with each hit.

"Here it is, Joe's Rollout attack! It is said that his Graveler can roll for a full two and a half minutes, which is an unstoppable technique! How will player Marcus respond!"

"Smoliv, use Growth and then Absorb!"

Absorb: Grass Type special attack, power 20, absorbs the opponent's nutrients, restoring half of the damage dealt as HP.

Growth: Uses natural energy to increase dual attacks by 1 level, and in Sunny Day, it will increase by an additional level!

This was one of the reasons Marcus chose to gamble on Sunny Day.

Because the attack moves were not yet pure enough, the only Grass Type moves Smoliv could use were Razor Leaf and Absorb. The attack of Razor Leaf against Graveler's significant physical defense would probably not be enough to take it down, and Absorb's power was too small. Even with a 4x weakness, it would be difficult to win.

But with a two-level special attack boost, it would be completely different. Whether using Absorb directly for a strong attack or utilizing its recovery effect, it could better withstand Graveler's pressure!

"Smoliv!" The tender green little guy in the field let out a spirited cry, recalling the scene of her rabbit sister playing games...

That vampire-like hero on the other side seemed to be called... Vladimir?

Her cute little eyes looked at the big guy opposite... a hint of craving appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Hehe, let me take a sip~

Suddenly, a powerful suction force was released, and dense green light scattered from around Graveler, merging into Smoliv's body, even causing the wounds from the previous rockfall to quickly disappear.

"Graveler!" Graveler cried out in pain, actually kneeling on one knee on the spot, and even the Rollout being released was interrupted!

Gray-white light lit up around Graveler, which was the Sturdy ability, resisting a fatal attack when its HP is full.

"..." Joe was stunned.

The audience present was also stunned.

Even the commentator was silent for a long time...

One move! Just one move! Graveler almost lost its combat ability!

"Is this... Mega Drain?!" Marcus felt as if he was in a dream.

Smoliv actually understood how to use Mega Drain on the spot?

One must know that these past few days she had been watching Dragon Ball anime and practicing Sunny Day... she had not expanded her move pool at all.

However, just like that, she actually learned Mega Drain...

What kind of cheat is this?! Is it because her Talent Value is good that she can do whatever she wants!

Marcus shouted in his heart, but the smile on his face continued to widen.

After another Mega Drain, Graveler fell without a doubt.

"This is too amazing! Smoliv actually mastered a move like Mega Drain on the spot and completed a desperate comeback!! Let's congratulate player Marcus!"

Looking at the disbelieving Joe opposite, Marcus couldn't help but shake his head.

Mega Drain with a power of 40, a 1.5x Same Type Attack Bonus, a 2x two-level special attack bonus, plus a 4x weakness, this one attack had a total power of 12x, 480!

Even Graveler's father, Golem, wouldn't be able to withstand it...

"The winner is decided! The winner is Marcus from Goldenrod City and his Smoliv!" The Referee's voice was late but arrived.

"Smoliv~!" Smoliv happily jumped into Marcus's arms. She was very happy to defeat this big guy.

Marcus also smiled slightly, ignoring the stunned Joe, turned around, and left the Battle Facility.

[Ding, completed an incredible leapfrog challenge, obtained Universal Talent Points ×10!]

The System prompt sounded in his ears, and Marcus couldn't help but grin.

Fortunately, there was a 4x weakness this time, otherwise, he really wouldn't have won... Of course, Smoliv learning two moves on the spot was also a cheat behavior...

Happily opening the System panel, Marcus directly maxed out Smoliv's dual defenses, and her Talent Value also increased to the species' maximum:

[Smoliv ♀ lv15 (Beginner)]

Ability: Early Bird (Sleep time ×50%)

Talent Value: 260 (Has reached the species maximum 260)

HP: 40, Attack: 30, Defense: 55, Special Attack: 50, Special Defense: 55, Speed: 30

After defeating her opponent, Smoliv leveled up on the spot, and her Talent Value also reached an extremely perfect level under Marcus's adjustment.

Looking up at the time, it was still early before the next match. Marcus hesitated for a moment and continued to allocate 1 point of Defense Talent Value to Smoliv.

[Ding, detected that Smoliv's Talent Value has reached the species maximum and has not reached the final evolution form. The allocated Talent Value will be equally converted into evolution pre-stored value, and directional Talent Value allocation will be obtained upon evolution!]

"Huh?!" Marcus was startled and carefully read the sentence again.

He narrowed his eyes. This meant that the Talent Points allocated now could be converted into preset Talent Value upon evolution, instead of the fixed increase during normal evolution.

At the same time, breaking through the species limit would only be unlocked after evolution was complete...

Understanding this, Marcus's little heart began to beat uncontrollably faster...

In that case, perhaps he could cultivate a Lopunny with a Speed Talent Value of over 150! An Arboliva with dual defenses over 130! And a Slaking with an Attack over 200!

"Hiss..." Marcus gasped, a flush appearing on his face.

If this could really be achieved... his dream would be within reach.

"Players number 119 and 120, please proceed to the battle platform for your match..."

The broadcast called Marcus again. He composed himself, removed Buneary's weights, and re-entered the player's tunnel.

As soon as he walked out of the player's tunnel, Marcus was stunned.

Standing opposite him on the battle platform was a young girl with dark blue long hair.

And this girl... he knew her.

To be precise, he had battled her countless times in the game...

She wore a hot blue and white crop top paired with matching short shorts, her chocolate-colored skin shimmering with a faint glow. Her tall and beautiful figure drew cheers from many spectators.

It was none other than Nessa, the Water Type Gym Leader of the Galar region's Hulbury Gym!

"Looks like my luck is good today..." Marcus smiled slightly.
