"Then on my side, these are the three."
After Fang Yuan sent out his Pokémon, the examiner also spoke. Following his words, the Shi Men behind him slowly opened.
From beyond the dark Shi Men, a series of sounds came through.
"Chirp~~~~"
"Lei-lei~!!"
"Saa~"
With the three growls transmission, Decidueye, Leiqiu, and Lei Yibu stepped out from behind the Shi Men.
"These three, huh..."
Fang Yuan just happened to remember these three Pokémon; they had all appeared during the first stage of the selection. Their strength was not weak, and their abilities were troublesome: they were Decidueye with the Weatherless Trait, Leiqiu with the Charge characteristic, and Lei Yibu with the Lightning Rod Feature.
To counteract the rainy day tactics, he had brought out one Decidueye with a Weatherless Trait that could influence weather effects.
To deal with thunder and other Electric Moves, as well as Milotic, he had brought out two Electric Elves that could ignore Thunder and Lightning...
The selectors revealed expressions not of surprise; while these three Pokémon might not be the best combination, they could effectively counter Fang Yuan's team. Even if Fang Yuan could win this battle, it was certain to consume a lot of his resources.
However, Fang Yuan remained calm throughout...
Weatherless Trait? Charge characteristic? Lightning Rod Feature? They were indeed good abilities, but they also needed to have room to be utilized.
The huge arena hosted a standoff between the six Pokémon.
Seeing the examiner's choice of Pokémon, and adding in Fang Yuan's decision not to lead with the powerful Gengar, quite a number of people who knew Fang Yuan started to sweat for him.
That Milotic was indeed strong, but it was a close-combat fighter, and after a single strike, its ability to fight was significantly reduced; it wasn't very reliable.
Dragonite was also strong, but only after performing Dragon Dance six times; in the current battle environment, Dragonite hardly had any chance to perform multiple Dragon Dances.
The only Pokémon whose strength was unknown, the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster, didn't seem all that compatible with the Rainy Day Team...
What exactly was Fang Yuan thinking?
Just as everyone was intently watching the battlefield, many noticed Fang Yuan suddenly covering his ears.
The clever ones quickly imitated him, but many others were left clueless...
Then, at the referee's command, a "boom" thundered, and an ear-deafening roar resounded through the sky.
"Damn! Fang Yuan."
"So that's why he covered his ears..."
This one roar directly shook the hearts of the observing trainers, startling them.
They looked up and saw that above the field, dark clouds appeared almost instantaneously, turning the sky pitch black, with seas of lightning rolling within the clouds.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
Furthermore, the intensity of the rain was extraordinarily great.
"Where's Decidueye?"
Seeing the rain, many trainers turned to look at Decidueye. With Decidueye there, no matter how heavy the rain, it wouldn't matter. With its trait to isolate, it would be difficult for the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster, Milotic, and Dragonite to utilize the Power of Rainy Day.
However, when they looked at Decidueye, the many selectors found that its expression was as if it had been shocked.
Amid the howling winds, it seemed like Decidueye saw the silhouettes of two mythical beings in this doomsday-like rainy scene.
In past battles, even when facing top-level power Pokémon employing Pray for Rain, it could easily erase the effects of rain with its Ability Power.
But now, as Fang Yuan's Rainy Day Tactics unfolded further, Decidueye's senses were almost collapsing, feeling the illusion as if the end of days had come and the sky was falling.
"Decidueye?" The examiner, too, sensed something from Decidueye's change and felt a nameless shock.
The Self-detonating Magnetic Monster, Dragonite, and Milotic all mastered the Rain Dance Moves. Each had a different way of summoning rain.
Dragonite controlled the airflow, the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster controlled the charge in the thunderclouds, and Milotic controlled the churning, wavelike water and ice in the rain clouds. United as one, focusing on different aspects, they reached the pinnacle of each.
If it was just this, Decidueye might still manage to eliminate the weather effect using its Ability Power.
But...
Their Rainy Day Tactics had already been upgraded.
Now, the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster had almost reached the Top Tier Domain, mastering the blue lightning.
Dragonite symbolized Lugia,
And Milotic symbolized Kyogre.
With insights from the Silver Feather and Sea of Origin, the greatest advancement in Dragonite's and Milotic's Moves was Rain Dance.
Facing such an exalted Rain Dance, unless this Decidueye had stepped into the Top Tier Domain and developed its own trait to the utmost, it had no choice but to submit before the Power of Nature.
"Blue... Blue Lightning Sea!!!"
The moment the thunderclouds formed, everyone noticed the Self-detonating Magnetic Monster wielding blue lightning like Thor above the sky. The terrifying pressure of the lightning made many trainers' pupils constrict.
Shang Ren, Mu Fan, and others almost instinctively stood up. Another Pokémon close to the Top Tier Domain???
Even the examiner facing Fang Yuan had an incredulous look.
This Fang Yuan had endless trump cards; besides Gengar, he had yet another nearly-top-level power!
"Another one?"
Master Ma Chenzong, Cloud Armor King, and Ms. Liu Qin also found it unbelievable.
Nearly top-level power, when did it become so common? This is the level of a King's Main Forces.
"Could it be those magnets?" The three knew that Fang Yuan had requested a large quantity of magnets, but in just one short week, how could he possibly have digested so many magnets... and transformed them into strength?
