Rope watched the trio's shocked faces with interest, and it had to be said that it was fortunate that because Rope came as an inspector, or else if this scene was seen by the audience and posted on social networks, Rope would basically be on the verge of instant fame.
After all, even the most knowledgeable netizens would have to say that they've never seen this before.
I guess Gyarados is also in a daze at this point. After all, after living for so long, he really hasn't swam in the fire wave.
Dragonborn new experience get√.
Of course, it's best not to if you can.
Soon enough, though, a blue dragon shadow with burn marks on its body leapt out of the flaming waves.
Gyarados gasped, ducked into the water with his eyes red, and dove down.
As expected, Charmeleon's Flamethrower, although it was indeed ridiculously powerful, it was still impossible to kill Gyarados, who was half a level higher than himself, in seconds with this move.
Rope wasn't sorry either, it was beyond the level of a normal Charizard. If you had a different Charizard, Misty's Gyarados would have dared to take his Flamethrower.
But if you ask him to take Rope's Charmeleon's Flamethrower, he'll be dead.
Therefore, Rope met Misty's angry eyes, and shrugged his shoulders, making it clear that he wouldn't try to explain himself.
Misty could only collect her thoughts and look at Gyarados under the water, then calm down to observe the battle.
But Rope was also a cocky guy, making it clear that he wasn't going to take the initiative, after all, Charmeleon was going to be in big trouble because of the flames on his tail once they went out...
But apparently Rope wasn't planning on switching Pokémon either, because sooner or later Charmeleon was going to have to encounter this kind of thing, and it's better to gain experience in this kind of sparring where you won't lose your life than to get killed due to inexperience in the wild or when you meet a real enemy.
This is what is called getting hurt more in normal times and not losing your life in real battles.
As for the default etiquette for sparring between trainers...
Is it the default etiquette for a Gym Leader to hit a new trainer full force?
Don't worry about whether Rope did it on purpose or not, just say it is!
Rope, he's always been a double standard...
"Gyarados, Rain Dance!"
Rope raised an eyebrow as Misty's order reached her ears.
It looked like Misty wasn't going to go head-to-head with Rope.
Misty's team was able to play Rain Dance's Pokémon...
There were many that could be chosen for 6v6, but if it was 3v3... Poliwrath, Seaking, Floatzel.
Rope had a thoughtful look on his face.
"Charmeleon, watch your step."
Rope made a command that didn't make much sense; after all, it was still a stalemate, and a bit of passivity was inevitable in this situation if they decided to play a defensive counterattack.
"Gyarados, Hydro Pump!"
Gyarados leapt out from underwater, then blasted towards Charmeleon with a water cannon.
Again, it was an attack that basically had little chance of evasion.
That's why Rope still decided to try to resist it hard.
"Charmeleon, max power, Flamethrower, hold on."
Charmeleon immediately used her greatest ability to spew out flames, and then the huge wave of flames collided head-on with the water cannon, and hot water vapor immediately emerged, and then covered the entire field.
In fact, Rope knew that Misty was forcing herself to make water vapor, and then Misty would not move to replace the Pokémon or approach Charmeleon.
But Rope can't do anything about it, it's a trick.
If you can't avoid it, you have to fight it, but Charmeleon can't take it, so you have to use this method of defense against the waves.
In this aspect, Rope was in a passive position tactically.
This was also the reason why Rope was still a novice. If he had a Pokémon on hand that could use Clear Fog, he wouldn't have been so passive.
However, since Rope had guessed Misty's idea, this passivity was nothing, as long as he wasn't caught off guard, it wouldn't be a problem.
Rope was confident that Misty would lose no matter what she did...
After all, Entei had the backing, didn't she?
No way, no way, no way, no way would anyone really use this kind of Legendary Pokémon to play in the League Tournament? Are you shameless?
Tobias: ...
Rope: Curse again!
Misty doesn't let the scene go silent for too long. Her fighting style is straightforward, and the fact that she can think of steam to cover her movements is still a good sign that she's fighting with her head on her shoulders.
Even Rope didn't do everything with the intention of calculating something. People like that were too tired to live.
"Floatzel, Aqua Jet!"
Before Misty's shout could land, an orange figure wrapped in currents of water around its body was hidden in the steam, quickly bursting into Charmeleon's face.
"Charmeleon, Slash!"
He reacted quickly, so his claws flashed white light, and then he slashed towards Floatzel with a high-temperature Slash.
Misty didn't mean to make a sound to retreat, but instead, she looked at Floatzel's attack with a firm gaze, and it was clear that she just intended to fight this Rope to the end.
Rope didn't make a sound either, at a time like this, Rope would show weakness, and Charmeleon definitely wouldn't either. This guy is the real warrior who doesn't admit defeat.
So, Floatzel and Charmeleon so collided together, Charmeleon's stomach was hit hard, Charmeleon ate the pain, the eyes are more fierce, the hand Slash's force is a few minutes bigger, such as a hot knife to cut the butter easily cut the layer of water flow, and then ruthlessly chopped to Floatzel's ribs. Floatzel also suffered pain.
Floatzel also suffered pain, but didn't have the slightest intention of stopping, instead, he began to condense Water Gun in his mouth, intending to give Charmeleon a hard blow.
Charmeleon was not to be outdone, and had already developed the most powerful Flamethrower in her mouth.
At this point, neither Rope nor Misty were capable of directing anything anymore, and this momentary battle could only be grasped by Pokémon himself.
A trainer who does not command a Pokémon does not deserve to be called a trainer, and a trainer who commands a Pokémon throughout the battle is not a qualified trainer.
Not to mention the fact that the trainer himself was outside of the field, and there were limitations in his field of vision, but just to say that if this kind of battle opportunity that happened in a matter of moments was missed, it would mean that the duration of the battle would be prolonged.
So... this battle, it's going to end!
In the eyes of Rope and Misty, and even Sue and Daisy, it was just a column of water and a wave of flames flashing by, and then it was two figures each flying out backwards.
Charmeleon and Floatzel flew backwards in the opposite direction and didn't stop until they hit the wall.
The one dragon and the one ferret struggled in their respective positions for a moment in unison, before Charmeleon, braced himself and stood up.
Rope withdrew his eyes from looking at Charmeleon and turned to Daisy.
Daisy was surprised, but hadn't forgotten her duties as referee.
"F-Floatzel is unable to battle, challengee Misty please replace your Pokémon!"
Before Daisy's words had even left her mouth, Misty had already retrieved Floatzel without any delay. whispering softly to Floatzel's Pokéball, she said, "Thank you for the hardwork, Floatzel."
Floatzel's Pokéball shifted as if to apologize.
Misty shook her head and smiled as she put Floatzel's Pokéball back on her belt.
On the other side of the room, Charmeleon saw Floatzel being retrieved from the ball and turned, giving Rope a winning smile.
Rope bared his teeth and gave him a thumbs up.
Then there was a 'thump'.
"Charmeleon is unable to battle, challenger Rope please replace your Pokémon!"
