Chapter 405 Sweating
"Shijiana's second Pokémon is actually Flycatcher! And it has ground attributes, which is a perfect counter to Arbok! There should be no suspense in this match, Flycatcher will definitely win." Wang Chen thought to himself.
Not only Wang Chen thought so, many audiences in the audience also believed that Xijiana's Desert Dragonfly had huge advantages.
"The Dragon-type plus the Ground-type Desert Dragonfly simply crush the pure Poison-type Arbok in terms of attributes. The advantage is too obvious."
"Yeah, there are basically no surprises in this match. Shijiana will definitely win easily. I really don't know how Xing's Arbok can fight against the Desert Dragonfly."
"It looks like Xijiana is going to have the upper hand again. I guess this Arbok won't be able to hold on for long before it's killed."
At this moment, both Wang Chen and the audience in the audience agreed that Xi Jiana was in an absolutely advantageous position, while Ah Xing's side would not be able to hold on for too long, let alone organize an effective counterattack.
However, something unexpected happened. Ah Xing's Arbok did not last long and was defeated easily by the Desert Dragonfly.
However, Axing's Arbok is not completely defenseless.
Just when Arbok was about to fall completely, it successfully transferred some of its own toxins to the Desert Dragonfly, causing the Desert Dragonfly to be slightly poisoned.
"Arbok has lost its ability to fight, Troodon has won, contestant Xing, please replace the next Pokémon!" the referee announced loudly.
As the referee finished speaking, many viewers who knew little about Pokémon battles believed that Shijiana now had a huge advantage and was only one step away from victory.
But in fact, those who really understood how to fight all frowned at this moment, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for Xijiana.
For example, Wang Chen, who had been watching the game on the player viewing stand, and the Desert Dragonfly's trainer, Xijiana herself.
"A Xing is an expert in using poison! The toxin contained in her elf must be extremely ferocious. The desert dragonfly was only slightly touched by it, but the toxin may have already entered its body!"
"If this continues, as time goes by, the desert dragonfly will become weaker and weaker because of the insignificant amount of toxin. It is not impossible that it will eventually be poisoned and fall to the ground."
"Therefore, Ah Xing doesn't need to fight the desert dragonfly head-on anymore. She just needs to delay time. As long as the delay is long enough, the desert dragonfly will most likely be knocked down by that little bit of poison!" Wang Chen deduced secretly in his heart.
Sure enough, the direction of the battle was just as Wang Chen expected.
Ah Xing is really starting to stall for time, and her acting is pretty great!
Ah Xing first frowned, with beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead. He pretended to be extremely nervous, as if he was thinking hard about which elf to send out next.
But in fact, Ah Xing was sneering secretly in her heart.
The reason why she deliberately delayed time was to allow the toxins in the desert dragonfly's body to take full effect and produce a more powerful effect.
Seeing Ah Xing's expression, the referee glanced at the stopwatch in his hand, and then said without hesitation: "Ah Xing, please note that according to the rules of this competition, you only have one minute to think about how to choose the next Pokémon, and now 50 seconds have passed."
Urged by the referee, Xing had to slowly take out the third Poké Ball.
Immediately afterwards, a red light flashed, and a "cross-bat" that looked extremely agile appeared above the battlefield.
Seeing the appearance of the Cross-bat, Wang Chen's heart tightened and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's true!"
"The most notable feature of elves like the Crossbat is their extremely fast speed. Their physical strength is also quite outstanding. In addition, since the Crossbat has four wings, it can be extremely flexible when dodging attacks in the air."
"Although the attack capability of the Crossbat is relatively weak, if we only consider its flexibility and ability to delay time, I am afraid that few elves can compare with it." Wang Chen thought to himself.
At this moment, Wang Chen was worried about Xijiana. Xijiana, who was standing on the fighting stage and fighting with the X-bat, was also secretly complaining in her heart.
She tried her best to command her desert dragonflies to attack Ah Xing's crossbats, but with little success.
After all, in terms of flexibility, most desert dragonflies cannot compare to the cross-winged bat, and this one of Xijiana is no exception.
Therefore, although Shijiana's desert dragonflies attacked in large numbers, the number of times they actually hit the crossbats was very rare, and they could hardly pose a substantial threat to the crossbats.
"Hmph! Crossbat, you just need to dodge the attacks of the desert dragonfly flexibly in the air, and spray some toxins when you get the chance. It would be great if you can hit the desert dragonfly, but it doesn't matter even if you miss!" Ah Xing ordered.
Under Axing's command, the Crossbat firmly implemented the strategy of long-range attrition warfare.
Whenever the desert dragonfly launches an attack, the crossbow bat quickly flies away, always keeping a certain safe distance from its opponent.
When the desert dragonfly slacks off and exposes its weaknesses, the crossbow bat will not attack with all its strength, but will only spray some venom to try to aggravate the poisoning of the desert dragonfly.
Faced with such tactics, Xijiana's desert dragonfly fell into extreme difficulties.
This made Xijiana break out in a cold sweat. Obviously, she was racking her brains to think of a solution, but she could not find an effective method.
"In this situation, it is almost impossible to attack the Crossbat through conventional means. The only feasible solution may be to use the characteristic of Z-moves that are guaranteed to hit, and let the Desert Dragonfly directly use the Z-moves of Reverse Scale to try to defeat the Crossbat in one fell swoop." Wang Chen thought to himself.
If Wang Chen's Desert Dragonfly were to face Ah Xing's Forkbat, he would definitely take out the Z Pure Crystal and use the Z move without hesitation.
Wang Chen is full of confidence in his Desert Dragonfly. If he lets it use its Reverse Scale skill and combine it with a Dragon-type Z move, it can definitely kill Ah Xing's Forkbat in one blow!
However, from the current situation, it seems that Shijiana has not prepared any z-moves for her Desert Dragonfly.
To say the least, even if she had a z-move, it's hard to say whether she could defeat the Xbat in one go.
Therefore, in the following battle, Xijiana's Desert Dragonfly fell into a huge disadvantage and was almost played around by the Crossbat throughout the whole process.
