Chapter 502: Chapter 502: The Charizard Unaffected by Sunny Day's Backlash
Chapter 502: The Charizard Unaffected by Sunny Day's Backlash
The opponent for the third wave of the challenge was a level 70 Charizard.
[Pokémon: Charizard]
[Ability: Solar Power]
[Gender: Male]
[Talent: Champion]
[Level: 70]
[Moves: Thunder Punch, Fire Spin, Flamethrower, Sunny Day...]
It was a Charizard with Champion-level talent and the Solar Power ability.
This talent was also quite good.
"Roar!"
Upon seeing this Charizard, the gaze of Hikaru's Charizard also grew solemn.
It could see that this Charizard's strength was completely different from the previous ones.
"Roar!" (You go first!)
As the chosen Charizard, it generously gave the first move to Hikaru's Charizard.
"Since that's the case, we won't waste any time either. Charizard, Sunny Day!"
Facing a Charizard with a higher energy level than his own, Hikaru started with a boosting-type move.
Firstly, although Sunny Day could boost both sides, for the opposing Charizard, every use of the boost from Sunny Day would cost it stamina.
Why not do something that harms the opponent and benefits himself?
"Roar!"
The light in the sky brightened another level. The few white clouds were completely dispersed, and the fierce sunlight raised the temperature of the lower level by another degree.
Fierce flames lit up on the tails of both Charizard.
"Roar?" (Sunny Day?)
The opposing Charizard was stunned for a moment. Feeling the surging energy within its body, it laughed wildly. "Roar, roar." (Using this kind of boosting move, are you trying to compete with flames? Come on!)
Flames began to appear all over its body, and its entire form suddenly transformed into a wheel with a radius of several meters.
Flare Blitz!
But to its surprise, the opponent's trainer did not give the same command.
Facing such a prolonged battle, even though his Charizard had great stamina, Hikaru wouldn't let it use too much energy in this challenge.
After all, he cared more about the final match!
In the four challenges, the treasure feedback from winning the fourth one was eight times the first!
Eight S-rank Fire Stones were enough to move Hikaru.
As his Charizard's strength grew, the treasures needed to continue its rapid advancement would naturally be extraordinary.
Eight S-rank Fire Stones, if it absorbed and utilized them with all its might, would at most last for one or two months.
But eight S-rank Fire Stones, on the market, could already fetch a price close to ten small targets (1 billion).
In the past few months, the treasures exchanged for the prize money from the Youth League were almost used up.
It was still that saying, "Get money, get resources...."
"Charizard, dodge!"
Charizard (Hikaru's) flapped its wings, and its entire body quickly flew upwards, then began to fly in an S-shaped trajectory.
[Flare Blitz: Covers the whole body in flames and rams into the opponent with full force.]
This move, while dealing fire damage, also had physical damage from the impact.
And for such a ramming attack, the faster the speed, the higher the damage.
Therefore, a straight line of attack would maximize the skill's damage.
After all...
Accelerating on a curve... are you trying to get killed?
After creating some distance, seeing the Charizard below exit its Flare Blitz form, Hikaru seized the opportunity. "Flamethrower!"
When talking about a Charizard's most commonly used powerful moves, they were definitely Flamethrower and Fire Blast.
One good move is all you need!
"Roar!" (Why not face me head-on....)
Looking at the slippery Charizard (Hikaru's) that was like an eel, the Charizard below was just about to question it, but the flames diving down from above forced it to shut up and spew out its own flames to counter.
However, the hastily spewed flames put it at a disadvantage from the very beginning in the confrontation between the two Charizard, and at one point, Hikaru's Charizard's flames even reached its mouth.
The white flames were so close, making its eyelids twitch.
But as it increased its output, the flames finally began to push forward wave by wave.
It was just that...
It could feel that the opposing Charizard was indeed a bit inferior to it in terms of energy, but these white flames actually started to dance on its own flames, showing no sign of retreating.
But my ability is Sunny Day, right?
After being boosted, it's just a stalemate?
The Charizard was a little puzzled.
Could it be that the opposing Charizard's ability is also Sunny Day?
In that case, this duel will depend on who can't withstand Sunny Day first.
This was its thought.
But the change that followed made it dismiss this idea.
That wisp of white flame actually began to slowly climb forward along its own flame.
The fate of the previous Charizard was still vivid in its mind. A sense of apprehension welled up from its heart, and it unhesitatingly cut off the continuous supply of flames and flew up into the sky.
But in a clash of flames, it was the one who had started later, and now it was forcibly leaving. The flames of Hikaru's Charizard followed it like a shadow and then exploded violently.
[Purple Skill (Flame Splash) — When releasing flames, you can control the flames to splash apart.]
This was a skill obtained a long time ago.
Because its effect was quite good, Hikaru had fed it a blue [Entry Replica], thus turning it into a purple skill.
This explosion left the Charizard a bit bewildered, but it still did its best to dodge the exploding flames.
But despite its desperate dodging, a few sparks still landed on its body.
This time, it finally knew how the previous Charizard had felt.
Just a few sparks landing on its body, and it could feel its stamina being stripped away as if peeling an onion.
This feeling was something it had only experienced when it was weak and battling Grass-type Pokémon.
However, even if such seeds were to parasitize its body, they would gradually fail to withstand the high temperature and slowly melt.
But now, when it tried to activate its own energy to assimilate these flames, it found it was simply impossible.
It roared in astonishment, "Roar!" (What is this flame?)
However, Hikaru would not respond to it, and even continued to give commands. "Charizard, Fire Pledge!"
"Roar!"
Charizard (Hikaru's) landed on the ground. With a fierce stomp of its dragon foot, the ground began to vibrate, and one crack after another was torn open.
The Charizard in the sky watched everything below with vigilance.
The great sun became more and more dazzling, and it began to feel uneasy.
Whether it was the inassimilable flame energy or its body being scorched by the fierce fire under the bright sun, it was becoming unbearable.
But looking at the Charizard below, using such fierce fire, it seemed completely unaffected by Sunny Day at all.
What is going on?
