When she saw Bea leave the command area and enter the arena,
Melony, currently considered the fourth strongest trainer in the Galar League, was completely dumbfounded.
What was she planning to do?
The eight-figure audience, both at the venue and in front of their TVs, wore the same expression.
Then, under the curious gaze of countless viewers on the Pokémon Continent,
Bea took a shallow breath and raised her fist at the Darmanitan in front of her.
A huge uproar erupted throughout the arena.
Melony guessed what Bea was about to do, and her Galar Darmanitan, needless to say, pointed a 'Great Wilderness Imprisonment Finger' at Bea, looking towards Referee Danpe as if seeking clarification.
Danpe, recalling what Rose had told him before the match today, cleared his throat and explained:
"There is no rule in the tournament regulations that prohibits trainers from personally entering the arena."
In fact, Rose had spoken to him about this matter before the start of today's competition.
Danpe was completely stunned.
The expressions of the audience watching the live broadcast were exactly like those of Su Sheng from his previous life when he saw a fat guy from the German team Gigantamaxing in 'The New Prince of Tennis'.
Indeed, the rules of tennis don't explicitly state that players can't grow larger, but the person who invented tennis never imagined that someone could Gigantamax!
Live broadcast comments:
[Seriously, girl?]
[Did her mentality collapse? If her Pokémon can't do it, she'll do it herself?]
[Actually, many humans are also very strong. Yesterday, when I visited Professor Oak's laboratory, I saw a five or six-year-old kid carrying a 40-pound Nidorina and running around like it was nothing. I was completely dumbfounded.]
[As a Kanto native, I'm telling you, Elite Four Bruno often spars with wild Pokémon. Human potential is greater than you think.]
[Damn, Bruno only spars with wild Pokémon. Melony is a near-Champion level trainer, okay? Her main Pokémon could take down Mustard, the former Champion of Galar, let alone Bruno!]
"Bea, are you serious?"
Although she received a definite reply from the referee, Melony still felt it was surreal.
Seeing Bea nod with a serious expression, Melony took a shallow breath and said in a deep voice:
"Okay, here we come."
"Darmanitan, Ice Beam!"
Different from the Unova Darmanitan, the snow-white Ice-type Galar Darmanitan opened its mouth, and an ice lance shot out from the depths of its throat, drawing an ice line in the air as it flew towards Bea.
"Melony is holding back."
In the competitor's lounge, Raihan, considered the second strongest trainer in Galar, commented.
Any trainer who knows a little about Galar Darmanitan knows that its Special Attack stat is very poor.
Even though Ice-type is its primary type.
"Shave!"
Bea whispered.
Instantly, she disappeared from her spot.
Everyone at the scene's expression drastically changed, but they didn't have time to react further.
They saw Bea already appearing behind the Galar Darmanitan, rushing towards it at top speed.
"Behind you! Ice Punch!"
The sudden change made Melony even forget to hold back, subconsciously commanding her Galar Darmanitan to use a Physical Attack.
The Galar Darmanitan also quickly recovered from its shock, and a snow-white chill rose from its fist on its right arm, meeting Bea who was rushing from behind.
"Crap!"
However, when she saw her Darmanitan's fist getting closer and closer to Bea, Melony regretted it.
She panicked for a moment and reflexively had Darmanitan use a Physical Attack of its own type.
This punch hitting a person is no joke!
"Paper Body."
Bea whispered again.
Faced with the incoming Ice Punch, her body floated to the side like a feather blown away by the cold wind.
The Ice Punch almost brushed past Bea's waist.
Nearly 100,000 spectators in the Galar Stadium inhaled sharply.
To be honest, they had just imagined the scene of Bea being beaten until she vomited blood.
In the next second after avoiding the attack, Bea arched her body backward at lightning speed, performing a 'rabbit kicks hawk' move, kicking the Galar Darmanitan in the abdomen!
Thud!
The Galar Darmanitan, one of Melony's main Pokémon, relied on its excellent reflexes, crossing its two thick arms in front of its body for protection.
But even so, the considerable strength in Bea's legs still kicked it seven or eight meters into the air.
"Shave!"
Bea stomped her foot on the ground, turning into a swift shadow and bursting out.
Almost at the same instant that the Galar Darmanitan reached its highest point, she appeared beside it.
"That move again!?"
Melony's expression changed drastically.
"Hah!"
In mid-air, Bea swept out a whip kick.
The Galar Darmanitan, also in the high altitude, could only raise its arms to block again.
Thud!
The heavy sound of flesh impacting echoed in the stadium sky.
Although the Galar Darmanitan was not directly knocked away, it was shaken back several positions in mid-air.
It was obvious that the kick just now was not light.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bea's small feet continuously stomped in mid-air.
Making sounds like exploding balloons.
She actually approached the Galar Darmanitan for the second time in mid-air.
"That move is… the one that Doctor Su Sheng's Bewear used to deal with Galarian Articuno back then!?"
Many viewers, including Leon, had already recognized it.
The move Bea was using at the scene was exactly the same as the one that Su Sheng's Bewear used to fight Galarian Articuno more than a month ago?
Although the speed and proficiency were not in the same league at all.
But it was obviously the same move.
"Iron Defense!"
The astonishment on Melony's face finally turned into seriousness.
She had to show some real skill. If she was really reversed in this absolutely advantageous situation by a 10-year-old girl, she would become the laughing stock of the entire league.
And it was the little girl herself who came onto the field to fight.
The Galar Darmanitan struck a muscle-flexing pose. Through the close-up lens of the drone, it could be clearly seen that its muscles were tensed up.
And Bea, who had caught up using "Moon Walk", used both fists and feet.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
A rain of blows continuously landed on Darmanitan's body surface.
"Hah!"
Finally, Bea let out a roar similar to Bruce Lee's.
Her entire body inverted, finishing with a mid-air side hook kick, fiercely kicking the Galar Darmanitan to the ground from mid-air.
This combo… is Lion Combo!
"Bea!"
"Bea!"
"Bea!"
Nearly 100,000 spectators at the scene erupted in thunderous cheers.
Bruno, who was far away in the Indigo Plateau, also smiled and applauded at the screen.
Indeed, as the previous barrage said, he also had a habit of exchanging moves with Pokémon.
But that was just exchanging moves, or bullying wild Pokémon of ordinary level.
To have a melee with a near-Champion level Pokémon… Bruno said that he didn't have that ability.
Lorelei, who was sitting with her legs crossed next to him, was shocked and occasionally complained inwardly about why the director didn't switch the camera to the VIP table?
"You're really amazing, Bea, but… it's not enough to defeat my Darmanitan."
Melony suddenly spoke.
As soon as she finished speaking, the Galar Darmanitan, which had been beaten into the ground, suddenly jumped up.
The originally snow-white body showed fiery red patterns, grinning with a wicked smile.
Like Charizard's tail, a tuft of burning flames rose from between its eyebrows.
"It's Zen Mode!"
Sonia shouted.
Zen Mode, a unique characteristic only Darmanitan has.
It transforms after its health drops below half.
Its physical abilities will be greatly improved, and its type will also change.
At this moment, the original pure Ice-type Galar Darmanitan became a Fire + Ice type!
"Flare Blitz!"
Melony gave an order.
Flames ignited on Darmanitan's body surface, and it spun out like a tire.
Bea subconsciously raised her hand.
And the Galar Darmanitan in Zen Mode had already crashed into her.
So fast!
The heatwave from the flame impact blew Bea's short silver-gray hair.
Melony in the command area opposite her asked with concern: "Don't push yourself, Bea. Don't hesitate when it's time to give up."
After all, it was also the first time she had encountered a situation where a human fought her Pokémon with their own flesh and blood.
Bea grunted.
Barely holding on to this wave of attacks, she quickly jumped back to the command area where she had just stood with several backflips.
"Is that her limit?"
Leon on the commentary platform looked at the scorch marks on Bea's arm and said in a low voice:
"No matter what, Bea's body is still human, after all."
Then, Bea turned her head to look at the VIP table.
The camera finally switched to the long-awaited VIP table at this moment.
Unfortunately, Su Sheng was not lying on the big bed as before, enjoying the services of beautiful women.
Instead, he had a smile on his face and nodded to Bea.
Seeing this, Bea untied her knee pads, which looked like soccer socks.
At this time, everyone saw that there were actually lead weights hidden underneath.
"Madam Melony, next, I will also fight with all my strength."
Saying that, Bea threw off the lead weights in both hands.
"It's just removing a little weight, not enough to threaten Melo…"
Raihan in the competitor's lounge didn't have time to say the last "ny".
Thud—
The muffled sound of two bags of lead weights landing made his expression freeze.
"I'm coming."
Bea bowed slightly.
"Be careful, Darmanitan."
Melony reminded.
The Galar Darmanitan, whose speed and strength had been enhanced, squinted its eyes.
Then, Bea turned into an afterimage and was no longer in place.
The Galar Darmanitan's expression changed slightly.
Bang!
Then, a cracking sound came from its ear.
Then, pain came from the left side of its face.
At this time, it realized that it was flying.
Wh, what's going on?
Was I hit?
And in the eyes of Melony and countless other spectators.
They only saw a blurred afterimage flashing past the left side of Darmanitan, and then Darmanitan flew again.
Before Darmanitan landed, that swift shadow had already appeared where it was about to land.
At this time, everyone saw clearly that it was Bea.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sound of fists hitting flesh echoed in the arena again.
Bea, who had removed the weights, was like playing Devil May Cry, not letting the enemy land at all.
"Darmanitan! Flare Blitz!"
Melony decisively gave the order.
To be honest, it was very dangerous to use Flare Blitz, a high-power move that would damage itself, when there was less than half of its health left.
But Melony had no choice.
If she didn't make a move, there would be no chance to make a move.
The surface of Darmanitan's body in the high altitude quickly ignited with scorching flames.
It was an attack, and also a defensive shield.
Just like Lorelei's Ice Susanoo used in Celadon City before, it achieved all-round defense.
But this flame was too hot and would burn itself.
Whoosh!
Darmanitan gritted its teeth and endured the discomfort caused by the high-temperature flames, and then…
Whoosh—
Locking onto Bea's position, it streaked across the sky like a flaming meteor.
"Hoo…"
Bea on the ground took a deep breath.
She stepped out with her left foot and moved her right foot slightly back.
Making a Jeet Kune Do starting stance.
Although she hadn't completely mastered it yet, but… let's try it.
"That girl doesn't want to…"
Su Sheng vaguely guessed Bea's thoughts.
Bea kicked upwards with her right foot.
The force formed a crescent-shaped blade.
Shooting out to meet the Flare Blitz like a tiger descending the mountain.
It was the Tempest Kick that Su Sheng had previously called a "useless move".
However, the useless move was only for Pokémon.
After all, Pokémon can directly learn more advanced skills. The attack skills among the Six Styles are useless to them.
But for Bea, who is human, it is a very useful offensive means.
In everyone's shocked attention.
Flare Blitz finally suppressed the blue and white crescent moon.
And completely dispersed it.
But the speed had been reduced.
Bea slightly sidestepped, and the meteor fireball smashed into a place two meters away from her.
The place where the fireball fell formed a large pit with a diameter of ten meters.
Cracks spread out, and the grass in the middle had been scorched, and the exposed soil was either sunken or protruding.
But, it just didn't hit the target.
And Darmanitan in the center of the pit lay weakly at the very bottom of the pit.
"Darmanitan is unable to battle, Bea, Bea wins."
It was also the first time Danpe had encountered this situation, and he stuttered a little when announcing the results of the battle.
Galar Star Tournament Barrage Area:
[Damn! She really won?]
[This is too fierce, a human-shaped Pokémon, right? I think Bea can step my Mankey to death with one foot!]
[Who dares to marry her? I'm afraid she'll break you off with a little force]
[Where did the beast upstairs come from? She's only 10 years old, Internet police, do something!]
[This move is quite similar to Su Sheng's Bewear before. Could it be taught by this guy Su Sheng?]
[Nonsense, if you don't have eyes, donate them. Bea was still massaging Su Sheng's legs half an hour ago]
[I feel like Galar is going to become Su Sheng's harem. There are already three people who are ambiguous with him]
[I think if Su Sheng wants to, Rose himself can go up and serve him. He even moved the bed out to lick him]
……
After Darmanitan was defeated, Melony took out another main Pokémon, Mr. Rime.
Compared to the straightforward fighting style of Galar Darmanitan, Mr. Rime had more tricks.
But fortunately, although Melony was a veteran, it was also the first time she had seen Bea's fighting style.
In the end, Bea narrowly won against Mr. Rime.
But when Melony sent out Lapras, the outcome was already decided.
Even with Miloli's Lapras missing four consecutive Water Gun attacks, victory was still assured.
When her feet were invaded by the icy breath of Lapras's Ice Wind, affecting her speed,
Bea knew she had no chance.
“Clap, clap, clap~”
Sheng Su took a step forward and applauded.
The audience erupted in thunderous applause, cheering for Bea's performance.
Putting aside everything else, a 10-year-old child actually managed to force Melony, whose strength was close to that of a Elite Four member, to bring out her last Pokémon.
That was excellent enough.
“If only I could master Razor Wind and Finger Lance attacks more proficiently.”
Returning to the VIP stand, Bea couldn't hide her disappointment.
Her stamina had reached its limit when she finally battled Lapras.
The main reason was that she had exerted too much effort in the first two battles, and the root cause was her limited number of attack methods.
“Don’t be silly, you’ve improved fast enough.”
Sheng Su said with a smile, comforting her.
In Sheng Su's view, Bea's rate of improvement was almost comparable to that of the runaway king from his previous life.
Speaking of which, this was also a regret from his past life.
Sheng Su really wanted to catch the runaway king, slice him up, and study him.
How did a fat dwarf who didn't even have the strength of an ordinary person when he first appeared become the new generation's number one marine, feared even by a Four Emperor-level figure like Blackbeard, in less than three years?
Did he find the Hyperbolic Time Chamber?
After being comforted by Sheng Su for a while, Bea regained her spirits and remembered something, saying, “By the way, Doctor, do you need me to massage your legs again?”
Sheng Su chuckled dryly, “Uh… that won’t be necessary.”
Then, he secretly glared at a certain yellow-skinned mouse.
Su's persona was completely collapsing, okay!?
Rose pinched his chin and looked at the scene.
As expected, just making the bed and giving massages weren't enough to satisfy the Doctor?
“Chairman, something's come up…”
At this moment, Oleana walked to Rose from outside the door and whispered a few words in his ear.
After listening, Rose raised his eyebrows slightly and said to Sheng Su, “Doctor, we’ve located Articuno.”
“Oh~”
Sheng Su raised his eyebrows slightly and said to Erika, “It’s perfect timing, let’s go.”
The matches of acquaintances like Lana and Bea were over, and there was nothing else to see.
Rose didn't insist on Sheng Su staying, but strongly invited him to watch the final match, which was scheduled for three days later.
Sheng Su didn't refuse and left after agreeing.
Lana, Bea, and Lusamine's family of three didn't stay either, and went together.
Sonia, however, hesitated, lingering between Sheng Su's back and Leon at the commentary stand.
“Pika! Pika! Pika!”
The “Pikachu” in Sonia’s arms kept waving its little short arms towards the already distant Sheng Su.
The meaning was more than clear.
Urged by the yellow-skinned mouse, and realizing that Leon wasn't looking this way, Sonia finally chose to leave as well.
After Sheng Su and his group left,
Rose immediately summoned his employees to renovate and remodel the VIP stand.
……
……
The Hoenn League had gone crazy these past two days.
They were a little worried that the flowery scandals created by Sheng Su wouldn't be enough to help divert the attention of the entire Pokémon world, but unexpectedly, another big piece of news emerged in just one day.
Galar 《Spikemuth TV》: “Although Gym Challenger Bea stopped at the Quarterfinals, don't forget that she is only 10 years old. Today's match proved that she will definitely become the backbone of the Galar League in the future by forcing Gym Leader Melony to bring out her 6th Pokémon!”
Alola 《Manaloa Daily》: “Miss Lillie, the daughter of President Lusamine, has a very close relationship with Doctor Sheng Su. Gladion also treats the Doctor with the etiquette of an older brother. It is clear that some unscrupulous media outlets were provoking the friendly relationship between Doctor Sheng Su and President Lusamine's family.”
Unova 《Castelia Daily》: “Champion Alder's flagship Pokémon Volcarona passed away due to illness. Although Unova League Chairman Madame generously gifted Champion Alder a new Larvesta, this little guy may find it difficult to replace Volcarona in Champion Alder's heart.”
Hoenn 《Mauville TV》: “The Hoenn Chairman expressed his views on Doctor Sheng Su in an interview, believing that Doctor Sheng Su's emotional problems will not shake his contribution to the harmonious coexistence of humans and Pokémon, and stated that the headquarters should amend the League Law for Doctor Sheng Su, stating that a national treasure like the Doctor should enjoy the privilege of polygamy!”
Gym Leader Wallace expressed his full support for his Chairman's remarks when interviewed by the well-known Hoenn reporter duo Mary and Daisy, and expressed his views: “I support the legalization of polygamy. A historical figure like Doctor Sheng Su should leave more offspring and excellent genes to shine for the harmonious coexistence of humans and Pokémon. If Alola or Galar do not implement this law, our Hoenn region welcomes the Doctor to come. We can give him the green light.”
One day later.
Winona announced in an interview that she had unilaterally broken up with Wallace, because she was extremely dissatisfied with Wallace's polygamy remarks the day before and suspected that Wallace was cheating.
Um, the previous chapter had some content in that area, but it was deleted due to censorship. I'm so worried, because tomorrow's update has quite a bit of content in that area. I hope it won't be deleted to only half the number of words. Here's a little heads-up for everyone in advance. If the number of words in the next chapter is less, it's not the author's intention, it's purely a censorship issue.
