The Final Battle of the Elimination Round!
On December 22nd, the sun was shining, and the weather was pleasant.
Today is the last day of the elimination round of the university student league, and it is also the day of the most intense match.
Along with the announcement made by the competition committee last night, the bloody and intense level of the competition has been raised to another level.
Each contestant has worked hard and wants to pass the elimination rounds, advance to the main match, and even make it to the final, becoming one of the eight people participating in the international youth exchange competition.
International competitions have always been eagerly sought after by all coaches.
As soon as Bruce arrived at the observation area, he heard a heated discussion among the nearby audience about this matter.
"Damn it, Latveria is participating, this is not going to defeat him!" Some spectators waved their arms and said loudly.
As we all know, due to some historical issues, Avalon and Latveria are filled with irresolvable conflicts.
If players from both countries face off in an international competition, the fiercest battle will surely break out.
"There are many participating countries, Utopia, Camelot..."
"In recent years, countries around the world have paid great attention to the development of youth trainers and often hold similar youth competitions. Avalon's results in each session have not been bad," someone said slowly.
Avalon's development momentum in recent years has been strong, the level of trainers has improved year by year, and the results in various international competitions are similar to those of Utopia and Camelot.
"Now all the contestants must show their full strength, strive to reach the final, and win glory for the country," someone laughed.
Exactly. Bruce watched the game for a long time and saw that the players from both sides were extremely excited, with marvelous moves happening one after another and the smell of blood being intense.
And they also played against each other from time to time until four in the afternoon. He played three matches successfully and won all of them.
So far, he has won nine matches, with only the last one pending.
However, Maxwell had a tough match with Luka at two in the afternoon. In the end, Maxwell lost to Luka 1:3, which was a pity.
"His strength is a bit tough." After the match, Maxwell shook his head, decisively admitting the difference in strength between the two.
"And the level of command is very high," added Professor Rodriguez.
Maxwell nodded slightly.
But this is only an elimination match, and Maxwell's points have secured him a direct entry into the main match.
As time passed, Liam soon welcomed the security bandit for his last game.
He left the observation area under everyone's gaze and headed to competition area A to wait.
His last opponent was Daniel, a third-year student from Leicester University, who once ranked in the top 16 in the first-year student exchange competition.
According to Master Rodriguez's judgment, Daniel's threat level was four stars.
But after Emily's incident, Bruce became skeptical of Master Rodriguez's judgment.
I can't say it's inaccurate, I can only say it's not quite accurate.
The last match ended quickly, and Bruce and Daniel entered the battlefield amidst warm applause.
Daniel wore a high ponytail, looking neat and tidy, with a faint smile on his simple face.
He seemed a bit curious about Bruce, looked up, and then showed a mocking smile: "Meeting me in the last game, looks like your luck isn't very good."
Bruce raised his eyebrows and casually replied: "Seems like the big brother is quite confident, you shouldn't let me hit you and make you cry."
It's the classic pre-game trash talk session.
The trash talk between the two immediately ignited the enthusiasm of the audience on both sides of the stands. For a while, whistles, cheers, and shouts intertwined.
Upon hearing this, Daniel smiled but didn't continue speaking, silently waiting for the referee's voice.
"Please send out your Pokemon!" The referee looked around, then raised the flag and said loudly.
After the words fell, Daniel took a Poke Ball from his waist, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he sharply said: "Go, Spiritomb!"
With a flash of red light, a rock monster appeared on the field.
Spiritomb looks like a cornerstone with a pattern where a group of mysterious gaseous substances are found. There are parts like mouths and eyes in the substance, with circular patterns of various sizes around it.
Spiritomb is actually a Pokemon created by gathering 108 souls. It is a Dark-type creature that arises from bad thoughts.
【Pokemon: Spiritomb (Ghost/Dark)
Ability: Pressure
Qualification: Master
Level: LV46 (Ace)]
Spiritomb is a special Pokemon. It doesn't consume too much energy when used for energy consumption. The combination of Ghost and Dark types doesn't have a wide attack surface in essence, and lacks battery duration when used as a shield.
Of course, if it's Cynthia's Spiritomb, the situation is different.
Cynthia's Spiritomb could be a Double Team, in addition to its Pressure ability, it could be called the most disgusting Spiritomb.
Bruce decided to send out Blaziken.
He already knew Daniel's Pokemon lineup in advance and, naturally, wouldn't be foolish enough to choose Gardevoir or Metagross as the first Pokemon.
Spiritomb is immune to Psychic-type Pokemon, which makes it more or less troublesome for the two Pokemon.
"Let the battle begin!" Seeing that both players were ready, the referee lowered the flag and shouted loudly.
The two looked at each other and simultaneously issued orders:
"Blaziken, Swords Dance!"
"Spiritomb, Shadow Sneak!"
On the field,
A thick black shadow spread from behind Blaziken, like an indescribable and terrifying presence, it spread the black shadow and went straight to Blaziken's hand!
Blaziken was attacked from behind and felt some pain, but his eyes were shining, and it seemed like the impact was minimal.
Immediately, Blaziken stared fixedly and fiercely danced in place, his aura constantly rising, extremely sharp.
"Starting with Swords Dance? So greedy?"
"Bruce doesn't want to push the team again, right?"
The audience chatted for a while. As we all know, the move Swords Dance is a magical move to boost the team.
Seeing this scene, Daniel frowned slightly. He originally wanted to use Spiritomb to fight against Gardevoir or Metagross, but it failed.
But now Spiritomb is at a big disadvantage against Blaziken, and Blaziken is strengthening through Swords Dance, which makes the situation even more difficult.
On the battlefield,
The strengthened Blaziken stepped forward, covering his fists with flames and charging toward Spiritomb.
Daniel thought for a moment, took the Poke Ball, and said, "Return, Spiritomb."
In the next moment, he threw another Poke Ball: "Come, Gastrodon."
A burst of white light blossomed, and the manatee landed on the field.
Gastrodon has cow-like tentacles, eye-like patterns on its front, head, and back, a reddish-brown head, and a pink belly.
Obviously, this is a marine beast from the western sea.
【Pokemon: Gastrodon (Water/Ground)
Ability: Storm Drain
Qualification: Master
Level: LV46 (Ace)]
Boom!
Blaziken used Fire Punch, sweeping the wind, sparking, and hitting Gastrodon precisely, leaving it unconscious directly.
Gastrodon flew in circles in the air and then landed firmly on the ground, staring silently at Blaziken with its pure white pupils.
Thanks to its Water and Ground typing, Gastrodon is only four times weaker on the resistance side.
In addition to Grass-type, Gastrodon has four resistances and one immunity. In terms of durability, it is usually tough and thick.
"Earth Power!"
Seeing that the damage caused by Blaziken to Gastrodon was not fatal, Daniel secretly exhaled in relief.
Gastrodon stood on the ground, and a wonderful earth energy emerged around it. This energy poured into the ground and quickly spread to Blaziken's feet.
"Bounce." Bruce's eyes flickered, and he immediately thought of a countermeasure.
"Chat."
Blaziken responded quietly, with flamethrowers in his wrists and feet, burning the ground, then jumped: "The strong muscles directly dragged me to a height of more than ten meters."
Everyone looked up and felt that Blaziken had almost turned into a tiny black dot.
Seeing that the Earth Power was in vain, Daniel's eyes remained unchanged and he said harshly: "Muddy Water."
Gastrodon slightly raised its head, and a jet of muddy water shot toward Blaziken in the air.
But at that moment, Blaziken's feet had accumulated enough force and he fell directly toward Gastrodon's position, just in time to avoid the Muddy Water attack.
Blaziken's falling speed was very fast, and he fell from the air to the ground almost instantly. With astonishing power wrapped around his feet, he kicked Gastrodon's head directly!
As if an enormous force came, Gastrodon suffered a severe impact on the top of its head, causing its complexion to change drastically.
At the same time, the ground beneath Gastrodon's feet began to break layer by layer, like a spider web.
Immediately, Blaziken did a backflip and landed firmly on the ground, took a breath, adjusted his competition condition, and stared fixedly at the opposing Gastrodon.
Gastrodon was severely injured, panting for breath, but still had battle experience.
"Recover." Seeing this, he stretched his arms and shouted at Daniel.
But Bruce, of course, wouldn't forget the existence of this ability, and directly spat out: "Close combat."
On the field,
Gastrodon was about to use Recover, but Blaziken stepped forward, moved away in an instant, swung his fists, and intertwined a tight web to envelop Gastrodon!
Explosion! Explosion! Explosion!
Suddenly, Blaziken's punches were incredible, and the speed of his blows was unimaginably fast, hitting Gastrodon's body one after another.
Gastrodon kept retreating, letting out a pained scream.
Boom!
With Blaziken's final strong blow, Gastrodon flew several meters and fell heavily to the ground.
After this combo, Gastrodon had no strength to resist and was crushed.
Looking down again, Gastrodon's eyes had turned into circles.
"Gastrodon is out of combat!"
