Chapter 55: Falling into a Disadvantage?
Time passed quickly, at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The sun was scorching.
The Eastern Pearl Arena seats were full, and the audiences were all waiting to watch the afternoon game.
There were still four matches left today, and each one was highly anticipated, like the first match…
"Xie Ming vs. Fang Yuan!"
As the commentator said two names, there was a burst of applause in the audience.
Xie Ming and Fang Yuan, who have advanced all the way, have accumulated support from the audience.
Scyther was a strength Bug-type pokemon, it was very handsome in appearance and had fierce offense in the battle. Whether it was moves or fighting spirit, it was cool.
The Normal-type Eevee, although it looked petite and weak, the fighting consciousness was surprisingly strong, and no one would underestimate it after it had knocked down so many powerful opponents.
On both sides of the field, Fang Yuan and the opponent released the Pokemon, waiting for the referee's command to start.
"Eevee’s reaction speed is good, but Scyther is not bad, especially in terms of movement speed. The flying Scyther occupies a great advantage, and its continuous attack is also difficult to resist. I don’t know how Fang Yuan plans to deal with it."
"Interesting. Since the start of the tournament, Eevee has not encountered a faster opponent. Now it has encountered Scyther. In a sense, Eevee is very restricted, but what will happen next? It will be seen after the battle begins."
The people in the guest seats discussed.
……
"Student Xie Ming, although your Scyther is very fast, believe it or not, it can't touch my Eevee at all."
At the same time, Fang Yuan said suddenly before the battle started.
On the other side, Xie Ming frowned, feeling unhappy.
"I've watched your interview video. If you want to make me lose my composure like this, then you are underestimating me ."
"How could it be? I'm just explaining the facts." Fang Yuan laughed: "I am telling you in advance that we have prepared a secret weapon for this battle. You have to be careful."
Xie Ming took a deep breath. Although he told himself not to be affected, Fang Yuan's words still affected him more or less.
This bastard…
"Then let's wait and see." Xie Ming said.
The next moment, the referee announced the start of the battle.
Xie Ming followed and issued the command.
Scyther lowered its body, and as its blade-like wings vibrated, its feet slowly left the ground and directly flew.
Swish!
Suddenly, Scyther locked Eevee, the sharp scythes of both arms separated, ready to give Eevee a taste of pain.
"Scyther, Fury Cutter!" Xie Ming continued.
Fury Cutter, every time the slash successfully hits the opponent, Scyther would be able to make the next attack more powerful, this was a kind of move to make the Pokemon more fierce in the battle.
Xie Ming had let Scyther use this trick previously to carry out a continuous offensive to kill another seed contestant.
"It's really fast…"
After sprinting with Quick Attack, the figure of Scyther made Eevee and Fang Yuan unable to see too clearly with their eyes, and there was only a vague outline in front of them.
This speed will make the sickles on the arms of Scyther become sharper.
Fang Yuan and Eevee concentrated their minds…
Three meters…two meters…one meter…
When the distance between the two Pokemon were reduced to one meter, Fang Yuan finally spoke:
“Now!"
At a critical moment, Eevee used the Double Team move, and Scyther’s first cut scattered a remnant of the afterimage.
The remaining three afterimages plus a body surrounded Scyther.
Fang Yuan and Eevee's hearts were throbbing, it was really dangerous.
Seeing that the attack failed, Xie Ming and Scyther also became nervous. After quickly observing the situation, Xie Ming immediately judged: "Be careful behind you, Wing Attack! "
He quickly discovered which Eevee's body was real because Eevee had already begun to use the Sand-Attack technique directly behind Scyther.
“Vee" With a sly look, Eevee waved its forelimbs, and a cloud of dust was thrown rose.
However, hearing the command, Scyther didn't respond badly, and successfully used the airflow generated by the vibration of its wings to blow away the scattered sand and protect itself from interference.
"Double Team again?" Xie Ming was surprised.
In a short moment, while the dust was blown away, Eevee moved again and recreated the afterimage…
"Something's wrong, we were almost fooled."
After a while, Xie Ming finally came to his senses and let Scyther create a distance from Eevee.
"It was detected in time. When fighting in a small area, the speed advantage of Scyther could not be used at all. On the contrary, Eevee, who has a better reaction speed, would be more flexible. And during this period, Fang Yuan has been ordering Eevee to use the blind spot of Scyther to avoid, and the time difference is cleverly used to make Scyther's attack more difficult to hit. In this way, as long as Eevee finds an opportunity, it will be able to severely damage Scyther."
The professional trainer guest said: "This Fang Yuan must have studied the attack pattern of Scyther for a long time, and Eevee has a good grasp of the engagement distance."
"But now the situation has reversed. Next, Xie Ming only needs to order Scyther to take advantage of flying, keep controlling position, and reduce Eevee's movement range, then the battle will soon end." Another professional Trainer said.
"Furthermore, reacting to attacks from the air and counter-attacking, and reacting to attacks from all ground and counter-attacking, is totally a different concept. You can hide once, but can you continue to hide… It seems like there is a good show."
……
"Oh? Did you realize it so soon?"
Seeing the distance between Scyther and Eevee, Fang Yuan felt pity that his opponent didn't take the bait, and didn't make any mistakes.
"Scyther, use Agility to fly in the air first." Xie Ming gave the next order.
At the same time, Eevee also stopped its movements, looking at the green shadow on the sky, and became dissatisfied.
Bullying this Eevee who can't fly?
At this time, unlike the explosive speed brought by the Quick Attack just now, the Agility move makes Scyther look more relaxed, lighter, and the speed was not reduced at all.
After the two sides watched each other for a while, Xie Ming gave an order to Scyther to attack again, and Eevee used Sand Attack, but the sand was blown away by the airflow fanned by the wings of Scyther on the spot.
In desperation, Eevee dodged sideways, but Scyther was too fast, so there was a good chance to attack.
At this time, the distance between the two sides was very dangerous. Eevee used Quick Attack to counterattack, neither its Sand Attack nor the Double Team could break the game. Therefore, Eevee could only block and use a Quick Attack to quickly collide with Scyther.
With a "Bang", Eevee was forced back by Scyther’s Fury Cutter force, and Scyther also retreated some distance.
Judging from the power of their moves, this time they were tied.
But……
"Fury cutter move has hit Eevee. If this continues, the Fury Cutter’s power will become stronger and stronger, and Eevee will be injured in the next blow!"
