Chapter 82
"Mom, we seem to be late..."
Xiao Sheng looked at Jon's back, which had already gone far away, and then looked at the gap in front of him where there was no space for them to squeeze in, and he became depressed instantly.
"It doesn't matter, don't forget that our home is the Orange Gym!"
Mitsuko looked calm and didn't care at all. As the wife of the gym owner, it was understandable that she used a little power at this time.
As she dialed the phone, in just two minutes, a staff member hurried over and led them directly to the best position for watching the game.
The next 70 trainers who participated in the battle were all elite trainers at the lowest level.
In order to prevent cheating such as buying off opponents, the organizers would wait until before the battle to draw lots every time.
In addition, there were several serious staff members on the trainer's viewing seat to supervise, and it was strictly forbidden for the two sides to contact each other before the battle.
Jon was lucky to draw number 1 this time, and his opponent was number 70. In other words, Jon and he were the first trainers to start the battle.
At this time, the three original platforms on the central square had been demolished, and replaced by a larger and more solid battle field.
The subsequent battle mode completely simulates the alliance conference, and a random field draw will be conducted before each battle.
The four fields are the rock field, the grass field, the water field and the ordinary field. It must be said that the organizers really spent a lot of money.
However, they have made a lot of money in the past few days, and at the same time have greatly boosted the tourism economy of Chenghua City.
Jon stood on the competition field, and the audience instantly burst into deafening cheers.
In the first two battles, Gyarados's performance has attracted many fans for Jon.
Although it is not certain whether Jon will release Gyarados this time, it does not hinder the passion of fans at all.
Jon has never seen his opponent before, which means that his previous performance was not particularly outstanding, so he was not remembered by the audience.
When Jon and his opponent were in position, the huge screen behind the battle stage began to rotate back and forth on the options of the four venues, and finally stopped steadily at the word "water".
In fact, the water venue is not entirely made up of water. Two-thirds of it is water, and the remaining one-third is land.
After confirming that it is the water venue, Jon couldn't help laughing.
Luck is also part of strength. He originally planned to continue using Gyarados and let it experience high-intensity battles to promote its growth.
I believe that after this game, it can touch the threshold of the gym level. If it can jump into the gym level, it will be even better.
Xiaosheng in the audience shouted excitedly, "Great, it's the water venue! Jon's Gyarados can perform perfectly this time."
Xiaoyao didn't shout as excitedly as Xiaosheng. She just looked at the confident Jon on the stage quietly, and a smile appeared on her face involuntarily.
"The elimination round of 70 to 32 will begin, and the venue is the water venue.
The red team is Jon from Wudou Town, and the blue team is Masahiro from Liuli City. They only use one Pokémon. Please release your Pokémon at the same time."
The referee is already in place. He raised his hands high and blew a crisp whistle. Jon and Masahiro took out the Poké Balls at the same time and threw them out at the same time without hesitation.
"Go, Gyarados!"
"Go, Swampert!"
The seven-meter-long Gyarados appeared directly in the water, while in contrast, the 1.5-meter-tall Swampert stood firmly on land.
"Amazing! In the first match, Jon continued to use Gyarados, while Masahiro chose to release Swampert, which had never appeared before.
It seems that facing Gyarados, who is not afraid of electric shock, Masahiro wisely chose Swampert, which is a water and ground type..."
In the commentary booth, a commentator began to set off the atmosphere with excitement.
Jon glanced at Masahiro and made a gesture of invitation: "You attack first."
"Okay!"
Masahiro was not polite and gave orders decisively.
"Swampert, use water cannon!"
Swampert opened his mouth and spit out a very thick water cannon, which attacked Gyarados fiercely.
Jon looked at Gyarados and calmly gave orders.
"Gyarados, we also use water cannons!"
Gyarados let out a deafening roar, and the two thick water cannons met fiercely in mid-air.
However, Gyarados's water cannon was obviously thicker and stronger, and the collision point of the two sides' water cannons was moving towards Swampert at a speed visible to the naked eye.Move quickly.
Seeing this, Masahiro frowned:
"Swampert, avoid it, use close-range punches!"
Swampert stopped releasing water cannons, and then jumped into the water without hesitation.
It was very fast in the water, and in a blink of an eye it was close to Gyarados.
"Gyarados, use your tail to block it!"
"What?"
Masahiro looked at Swampert's fist being easily blocked by ordinary defense, and his face was full of surprise.
"Do you think my Gyarados only trains against electric shocks?"
Jon laughed. Gyarados, who has no hands and feet, obviously cannot rely on that bloody mouth without training its tail.
"Swampert, use muddy current, followed by sharp stone attack!"
Under Swampert, a muddy stream of earthy yellow water suddenly appeared, trying to control Gyarados firmly.
Then, it raised its hands, and sharp stones appeared, shooting at Gyarados like bullets.
"Gyarados, break free and dive into the water."
The rock-type trick caused great damage to Gyarados. Even though its scales were extremely hard, it chose to hide if it could.
Gyarados' tail burst out with an extremely powerful force, and it slapped hard and plunged into the water. Only a vague black shadow could be seen under the water.
"Be careful underwater!"
Masahiro shouted anxiously, but unfortunately Gyarados swam very fast underwater, and the two Pokémon were not far away. In just a moment, Gyarados used his head to push Swampert away.
"Bite it!"
Gyarados then flew out, opened its bloody mouth, and the rich black energy wrapped around its sharp teeth.
"Swampert, use the water cannon!"
Swampert immediately obeyed the order and used the water cannon swiftly towards Gyarados. With the help of the reaction force of the water cannon, it successfully avoided the attack of Gyarados.
"Great!"
Jon couldn't help but clap his hands, with an admiring look in his eyes.
Masahiro would not miss this great opportunity when Gyarados left the pool.
