Bella's face was extremely dark, but even so, it couldn't change the outcome of the battle.
If she had another Pokémon, she could have Squirtle leave the battlefield, which isn't against the rules in multiplayer Pokémon matches.
But not to mention that this is just a 1vs1 contest, and she doesn't have a second Pokémon to replace it with.
And Chloe was also very smart; she didn't use attack moves at all, but just used Sand Attack.
Sand Attack is a move that reduces the hit rate of the opponent, but at this moment Chloe was using Sand Attack in a completely different way.
She instructed Trapinch to bury the water turtle!
Yes, Squirtle's entire body was buried in mud and dust, leaving only a round head exposed, its face full of grievances.
"Squirtle can't continue fighting, Trapinch wins."
Shaking his head, Alex announced the result of the dramatic battle.
The earlier part of the battle was still good, at least it was fully in line with the level of a Rookie Trainer in the Pokémon world.
But later...
Well, who made Squirtle a turtle Pokémon?
The turtle shell is not only its best defense but also its potential downfall in a sense.
"Hee hee~ The result was inevitable."
The victorious Chloe was very happy and said with a smug smile.
But compared to Chloe, Bella wasn't as happy—she was very, very upset!
Obviously, the outcome of the battle was still uncertain!
"Get my little turtle out soon!"
Bella couldn't stand Chloe's smug appearance and said to her in annoyance.
"Hehe~ Right away, right away."
Chloe's smile remained bright, and Trapinch pulled Squirtle out of the dirt.
"Squirtle Squirtle!"
And as soon as it was free again, Squirtle was yelling at Trapinch in an instant.
It didn't accept this outcome!
Trapinch tilted its big head and looked at Squirtle, who kept 'chattering' in confusion.
Seeing Trapinch looking dumbfounded, the water turtle's cheeks puffed up with anger, ugh!
"There are still a lot of remarkable things in this battle. I think the two young ladies will definitely become excellent trainers in the future."
Alex smiled at the two and said that although the follow-up process was a bit funny, the first half of the battle really surprised Alex a bit.
They can finally command normally!
"Boss, I don't like listening to this anymore, we are also very good now!" Chloe was very dissatisfied.
"Hmmmm," Alex didn't care about Chloe's protests and nodded in response.
Where are you, um, really? Do you want to fight?
With this expression and tone again, Chloe's joy in winning the battle just now was dampened by this teasing.
"Let's go back to the store and have a rest."
Seeing Chloe pouting, Alex chuckled, this girl is really cute.
The group returned to the store, bought two bags of Potion spray from Alex, and sprayed some on Squirtle.
Bella thought for a while.
"Boss, can I try drawing another Pokémon now?"
"Of course, this can be done at any time. Does Miss Bella want to draw another Pokémon?"
Alex blinked when he heard the words. Did she realize that she had just suffered a defeat?
"Yes, I've probably experienced Pokémon battles, and I think I should be able to train two Pokémon at the same time."
Bella nodded. Although she had just lost to Chloe, and this silly girl made her very annoyed, Bella also liked Pokémon battles very much.
And she also realized that having just one Squirtle was clearly not enough.
So she changed her mind.
"As the boss, I still respect the customer's choice, and Miss Bella should know it all."
Alex smiled deeper, took the store manager's Pokédex, and handed it to Bella.
He hoped Bella would draw more, and maybe even win a Quasi-Legendary Pokémon!
In this way, the small target of 100 million turnover would be completed.
"To be honest, I want to draw again too."
Chloe was sipping her juice, glancing at the little green-skinned dinosaur beside Jack.
Quasi-legendary Larvitar! She's really envious.
But Chloe also knew that Quasi-Legendary Pokémon were definitely extremely difficult to draw, and she had to devote more energy to Charmander and Trapinch now.
She aimed to have these two little cuties evolve as the boss had suggested as soon as possible.
Jack was still reminiscing about the battle between Chloe and Bella just now, while Ryan looked at Chloe curiously.
To be honest, not only is it fun to draw Pokémon yourself, but it's actually a different feeling to watch others draw.
What's more, if Chloe draws a new Pokémon, he can also unlock a Pokédex entry.
Bella took the Pokémon Pokédex, took a deep breath, and pressed her eyes on 'Go' solemnly.
Please! Get a stronger Pokémon!
She wants revenge! She wants to defeat Chloe!
The shadow kept spinning, and after a few breaths, it slowly stopped, revealing a brightly displayed Pokémon.
"Hey? Is this a fish? It's a bit... underwhelming."
Chloe leaned in for a closer look, but her face wrinkled slightly after seeing it clearly.
Almost all of the Pokémon they've drawn so far are cute or charming, but this fish is...
"A little bruised fish? Could it be Feebas?"
Hearing this, Alex was taken aback for a moment. If the appearance is not very good-looking, it seems that only Feebas and Magikarp are worthy of this evaluation.
"It's really Feebas, Miss Bella, your luck is as good as ever."
Seeing the Pokémon displayed on the Pokédex, Alex raised his eyebrows and smiled at Bella.
"Boss, what do you mean?" Bella was also quite displeased with Feebas' appearance.
After all, Feebas is indeed a bit ugly, with dull eyes, blue fins, a khaki body, and its body is pitted. Especially those lips, which are even more pronounced.
Bella really doesn't like such unattractive creatures very much.
Not that it's totally unacceptable, but it should have something special, right?
But this fish, if it has anything, it's that it has its own unique charm...
Which left Bella not interested at all.
"There are several Pokémon with contrasting evolutions, but the most famous are Feebas and Magikarp, which are typical examples of Pokémon that undergo a qualitative change upon evolution."
Alex didn't hide it either, and introduced the group with a smile.
Yes, if you want to talk about Pokémon with the biggest contrast between pre-evolution and post-evolution, Feebas and Magikarp are definitely on the list and rank very high.
Evolution is a qualitative change?
Bella blinked; if the boss can say that, then it seems she can really look forward to it.
