Chapter 45- Start of The Main Tournament
In the second game, although Scyther’s opponent struggled, it still failed to cause much influence on Scyther.
Seed contestant Xie Ming successfully advanced.
It did not surprise everyone.
In the third and fourth matches, there was nothing special to watch. Fang Yuan judged that if there was no accident, Xie Ming would be the one who would make it to the top 16 in this group.
“The seed contestants are really amazing. Although I have been training with Growlithe for so long, I am still not sure if Growlithe can take Pscyther.”
“It’s okay if Growlithe‘s fire moves hit it, but if it can’t hit, it will be difficult…” Lin Jing said in comparison.
“Can your Growlithe use Extremespeed and flamethrower?” Fang Yuan asked.
“This… not yet…” Lin Jing was embarrassed.
The odds of winning were really small…
Unless she now uses a piece of fire stone for Growlithe to evolve, then maybe she could win the battle with the strong physical quality of Arcanine.
After the four matches in Group A finished, there was a short break, and then the contestants in Group B began to prepare.
Fang Yuan was not ready to leave, at least today he plans to watch the whole process.
If he could get a general impression of all the contestants who have advanced and know their fighting style, the time spent here would definitely be more meaningful than training for a while.
As the saying goes, know yourself, know your opponent, and win every battle.
Next, he plans to record the remaining seed contestants’ battles and go back to study them with Eevee.
In order to win, Fang Yuan would go all out.
Throughout the morning, the matches were going on in an orderly manner. Mr.Mine of the seed player in Group B and Misdreavous of the seed player in Group C received support from a group of audiences.
The process of fighting, in fact, was also the way of each contestant to show themselves, if the performance was good, it was not impossible to attract fans.
“It’s time for your match.” Lin Jing said on the contestant’s platform.
“Don’t be nervous,” Fang Yuan said.
“Isn’t it you who should be nervous?” Lin Jing was surprised.
“That’s right, if you’re not nervous, please help me record a video when I fight! Later I’ll help you record yours.” Fang Yuan said, “Remember not to shake your hands. It’s rare to participate in a competition like this. It would create great memories.”
Lin Jing was speechless, but she thought about it for a second and felt that it was indeed good to record a video to commemorate.
If they didn’t make it to the top sixteen, those battle videos at least proved that they had come.
“Okay.” Lin Jing agreed.
Shortly, the first match of Group D was finished. At this time, Fang Yuan also came to the corridor leading to the venue, waiting to fight.
Outside, the commentator began to introduce the contestants.
“The next match will be the fourteenth match of today! First, I will introduce the contestant from the left, Fang Yuan, student Fang Yuan is from Pingcheng, who won the game very easily during the qualifiers. Don’t underestimate him.”
“And the contestant Han Jia, who is walking out on the right now, is also not a native of Shanghai, but comes from the farther Yingcheng…”
“Next, let us see what wonderful battle they can bring!”
…
In the guest seats, after watching so many matches, every guest became bored. Of the dozen or so matches, only a few of them were interesting to watch, which was really boring.
However, politeness should be shown outside. Seeing Fang Yuan and Han Jia’s debut, they still talked in symbolic meaning.
“Pingcheng…Speaking of which, a small secret realm appeared in Pingcheng’s area some time ago. Not only did it cause no casualties, but also found a Salac berry tree inside. Pingcheng’s Trainers Association is really lucky.” A representative of Shuguang Group With emotion.
“Yes, It is estimated that the local province and city associations have also benefited a lot…” said the representative of the Shanghai Trainers Association.
Several other guests also were talking.
At the same time, the battle on the stage has already begun.
“Cacnea, this kind of pokemon… I remember they love to live in the desert, right?”
“A question for you, does Cacnea have dark attributes after evolution?”
“Can it use Dark-type moves now?”
“Why are you not replying?”
At the venue, Fang Yuan asked his opponent questions while avoiding the Poison Sting thrown from the arm of Desert Cacnea.
He thought about it, he doesn’t have to frustrate others if he wanted to distract his opponent, instead constantly attracting the opponent’s attention could have the same effect.
Fang Yuan carefully read the rules of the match several times and found that there was no prohibition on talking to the opponent during the game, which gave him a hint.
Fang Yuan simply asked three questions for a pokemon like Cacnea, and the girl opposite him showed an expression of impatience.
“Uh…contestant Fang Yuan seems to be saying something to player Han Jia.”
The commentator adjusted his glasses.
“Did the two of them know each other before?”
Since Cacnea’s speed was not as good as Eevee’s, and Eevee has fought many difficult matches in the club, Fang Yuan feels relieved to let it deal with it alone, so as to practice trash talk that he was not yet proficient in.
He definitely doesn’t like this kind of tactic. Fang Yuan himself wanted to win the game openly and coolly, but this was not safe. After paying so much for the Young Phoenix King Cup, he decided to go all out, as long as he doesn’t violate the rules of the match. They will win by any means
After receiving the soothing bell and bonus, it is not too late to be a quiet and handsome man again.
“Speaking of it, the seed contestant in our group seems to be a grass pokemon trainer. How do you feel, after all, Cacnea is also a grass pokemon, right?”
“Where do you think Cacnea did not perform well that caused the opponent to be set as a seed contestant instead of you….”
“You are annoying,” Han Jia said.
“Be careful, Eevee is approaching your Cacnea !” Fang Yuan said.
Han Jia was shocked and found that Eevee had suddenly accelerated towards Cacnea through Quick Attack, and she…was distracted.
“Cacnea, quick, use Needle Arm.” Han Jia shouted.
Being able to get here, the strength of Cacnea was worthy of recognition. After hearing the trainer’s order, it immediately swung its barbed arm at Eevee who was next to it. Seeing that Cacnea reacted so quickly, Han Jia was relieved and swore to focus on the match.
But……
“Eevee, Quick Attack.”
Fang Yuan’s next sentence stunned Han Jia because Cacnea was not attacking Eevee at all, but a clone created from Double Team by Eevee’s rapid movement. If she had been observing the situation carefully, she would definitely not be so easily fooled, but because of Fang Yuan’s talking, Han Jia didn’t realize it at all. Fang Yuan’s reminder was also part of the conspiracy.
The purpose was to distract into giving wrong orders, and then create opportunities for Eevee to attack.
As Eevee slammed into the Cacnea, Han Jia wanted to cry. She hadn’t experienced such an aggrieved battle before, so she couldn’t help but stare at the innocent Fang Yuan fiercely.
“This Fang Yuan… is interesting.”
At the guest table, many guests have obviously never seen such a special battle.
