“I think you guys should try a Double Battle?”
Fu Ningna looked at the arguing parties and cautiously offered her suggestion. After all, if one was worried and the other was determined to go their own way, a Double Battle would be better.
Yu Huijun really wanted to rub Fu Ningna's face at that moment; she was his lucky star. Just then, Gallade said that the aura on the Poké Ball wasn't quite right.
It carried an ancient, primeval aura, and such things were very dangerous. Back then, ancient Pokémon or kings of ancient small nations had appeared and caused quite a stir.
That's why they were so vigilant about such things, and coincidentally, this young woman in front of them had such a dangerous aura.
Actually, these things could either be caught or not caught. For example, the ancient Pikachu dug up in the Qinling Mountains a while ago... is now being well-fed and taken care of at a power station, helping generate electricity every day, doing nothing but eating and sleeping.
There were also some resurrected ancient kings; those who could be influenced were, and those who couldn't were sealed away. Old-timers from thousands of years ago should stay asleep underground and not come out to cause trouble for modern people.
Getting back to the main topic, according to Gallade, the aura on Yu Feng's neck, while not as ancient as that Pikachu's, was equally threatening.
Without knowing if it was some old-timer taking over or an ultra-ancient dangerous Pokémon, and since the other party hadn't shown any dangerous behavior, even he wasn't authorized to make someone open their Poké Ball.
If they were worried about the Pokémon during a Double Battle, there was a high probability that this unknown Pokémon would be released.
At that time, they could identify the Pokémon and assess the danger, to avoid being detained by customs when they went there, which would be a huge problem.
“I can.”
Yu Feng and Yu Huijun simultaneously agreed to the request, both having their own thoughts.
Yu Huijun simply wanted to examine the Pokémon with the ancient aura.
As for Yu Feng, it was much simpler. Since Lao Mei didn't like it, they would battle. However, based on Fu Ningna and Professor Oak's attitudes, this person seemed like an Officer? At least he wouldn't be too weak, or weaker than Fu Ningna.
Although he was very confident in his Lao Mei's level, her unevolved size was always a weakness.
While there was a slight advantage in typing, the gap in battle experience and the like should be considerable.
“Then my Pokémon will be Gallade and Indeedee. Not that I have much choice, though.”
Yu Huijun also sent out his Pokémon; it was just for observing that dangerous aura anyway.
“Then my Pokémon will be Kirlia and Gardevoir!”
He took off the love ball. Whether it was for Lao Mei or something else, the Yu Huijun in front of him was worth Yu Feng's serious battle.
“Gar~~~!!!”
A massive shadow obscured the light in front of Gallade. The ancient dread seemed to awaken, sending a chill down Gallade's spine.
“This is truly... too big.”
“Is that what you should be exclaiming about?! Never mind, the battle rules are 2v2 unlimited.”
Seeing Yu Huijun still exclaiming about Gardevoir's massive size, Fu Ningna couldn't hold back her urge to retort. Is now really the time to be talking about her size?
Besides, if you're going to talk about size, look at the right place! People are already getting red-eyed effects!
Giving up on thinking, Fu Ningna could only announce the start of the battle.
Oshawott appeared in front of Fu Ningna at some point, blocking the Intimidation released wantonly by Gardevoir. However, Oshawott now looked thoughtfully at Yu Feng, its gaze shifting between Shiny Boss Gardevoir and Yu Feng, as if it had noticed something.
“Not only is there a rare Shiny Kirlia, but there's also a Shiny giant Gardevoir. It's a pity its size is a bit small.”
Yu Huijun hadn't expected that the aura actually belonged to such a large Gardevoir. It was much smaller than the ultra-ancient Pikachu he usually saw, so it didn't seem too outrageous. Plus, with the existence of Dynamax, it was only slightly larger than normal members of its species.
He speculated that it had perhaps luckily encountered an ancient inheritance somewhere, causing its size to change, or more crudely, its size increased during growth due to overnutrition. After making this guess, Yu Huijun breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it wasn't one of those old-timers, everything was fine. How strong could just an inheritance be? Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed past him, making him freeze for a moment.
He turned his head to find Indeedee lying on the ground, seemingly unable to battle. When it saw Yu Huijun looking at it, Indeedee closed its eyes and stuck out its tongue, looking completely burnt out.
????
'Are you faking it?'
Although the words weren't spoken, Yu Huijun's eyes clearly conveyed that meaning.
Didn't he know his own Pokémon? Although Indeedee was a Pokémon from the second team, it wasn't so weak as to be knocked out in one hit.
“Gallade, dodge and use Shadow Claw.”
He didn't care why Indeedee was faking it and quickly commanded Gallade, who was caught off guard by the loss of a teammate.
Gallade stabilized after receiving the command, performing a backflip to dodge Shiny Kirlia's Triple Kick.
At the same time, Ghost-type energy gathered in his hand, then he suddenly vanished from his spot. Simultaneously, his body appeared behind Shiny Kirlia, and the black-glowing Shadow Claw attacked Shiny Kirlia.
Shiny Kirlia threw a Shadow Ball into the air without looking back. Just as Shadow Claw was about to hit, a giant, flame-wrapped fist directly smashed towards the air.
“Gallade!”
After taking that hit and spitting out some sour fluid, Gallade remembered that this battle was 2v2, and his support was already down. And who was the physical attacker anyway?! Is it really okay for you two Gardevoir to use physical moves?!
Without giving him much time to think, he and the Shadow Ball Shiny Kirlia had thrown earlier met in mid-air, exploding into a cloud of black smoke.
“Psycho Cut, strike backward.”
Upon receiving the command, Gallade didn't think much and let his body freefall. A white light appeared at his elbow, then he fiercely slashed backward.
“Bang!!”
Psycho Cut and Shiny Kirlia, who had Teleported over for a second kick, were locked in a stalemate. However, being a third-stage evolution, and inherently better at physical attacks than Gardevoir, Gallade directly sent Shiny Kirlia flying.
“To the right.”
Without giving Gallade a chance to breathe, Shiny Kirlia instantly appeared on the right, its foot flashing with dazzling white light, and stomped down on Gallade.
Gallade barely resisted, using Shiny Kirlia's force to adjust his balance, then fought against Shiny Kirlia, who was constantly using Teleport to attack him.
However, constant defense eventually leads to an opening. With Shiny Gardevoir's support, Shiny Kirlia seized Gallade's mistake, and a Dazzling Gleam directly slammed him into the ground.
