Magnemite's Railgun
"South University Affiliated High School's Jiang Ran, Peaceful City First High School's Fang Yuan, the two geniuses live up to their names!!"
"How accurate is the ranking list? Will the championship really be a battle between Jiang Ran and Fang Yuan??"
"Ghost-type and Normal-type, resisting each other in a show of friendship, who will be the victor?"
If before today's competition, some people still questioned the top four in the rankings, now, very few people do.
On this day, Fang Yuan once again led Peaceful City First High School to two victories in the Team Battle.
One was relatively easy, with everyone contributing.
The other was more difficult, just like the battle with Calm Sea High School, the entire match became Eevee's solo performance.
As a result, Fang Yuan and Eevee's popularity on the Network skyrocketed.
"Boss, how do you feel?"
"Not bad."
After dinner, on the way back to the Athlete Village, Fang Yuan calmly replied to Liu Le's question.
"Just 'not bad'? If it were me, I'd definitely be floating."
Fang Yuan pinched Liu Le's arm and shook his head, saying, "You think too much. With all that meat on you, if you could float, would you be doing justice to old man Newton?"
"Why so harsh?"
Fang Yuan chuckled.
Browsing the supportive comments online, Fang Yuan felt happy.
People are like that, they need praise. Once you praise them, their enthusiasm immediately comes out.
Fang Yuan thought to himself that he had to continue working hard. It was impressive to make a name for himself as a Rookie Trainer, but it would be even more impressive to maintain it.
Hmm... After returning to the dormitory, Fang Yuan glanced at the time. It was 7 PM, too early to Sleep...
After battling all day, he surprisingly didn't feel tired. After thinking about it, Fang Yuan decided to go out for extra training.
The Athlete Village was lively now.
Because the Individual Battle had eliminated many contestants, those who had been eliminated would be very free next, except for occasionally participating in the Team Battle.
Therefore, compared to when they first arrived, many Trainers could be seen practicing in the Battle Arenas of the Athlete Village.
"Liu Le..."
Fang Yuan originally wanted to ask Liu Le to spar with him, but as expected of Liu Le, he immediately fell asleep upon returning to the dormitory, clearly exhausted from the day.
"Then Lin Jing? Never mind."
It was late at night, and Fang Yuan was too embarrassed to ask Lin Jing out alone, so he settled for the next best thing and went out by himself.
...
Fang Yuan took Magnemite and went outside alone.
He mainly came to increase Magnemite's battle experience...
As for finding Eevee something to do in the middle of the night... Fang Yuan wasn't that crazy yet.
Eevee had been battling wholeheartedly for an entire day. If Fang Yuan still squeezed it dry at night, although it wouldn't go on strike tomorrow, Eevee would cry to Fang Yuan in minutes.
After casually arriving at a Battle Arena, Fang Yuan began looking for sparring partners.
He couldn't beat up his own team members too hard, but he didn't need to hold back when competing with players from other schools.
Of course, if Fang Yuan accidentally challenged a team captain-level contestant, Fang Yuan and Magnemite might be the ones getting beaten up, because Eevee didn't come out with them this time.
"Hi, classmates."
Fang Yuan saw two girls and followed them.
"Fang... Fang Yuan?"
Seeing Fang Yuan, the two girls had mixed feelings, because Fang Yuan had eliminated their school...
"Classmates... would you like to..."
"Bully us? How can you even bring yourself to do that?"
After Fang Yuan's challenge, the two girls glared at him and turned to leave.
"???" Fang Yuan was stunned. Didn't I say I'd use other Pokémon?
What a buzzkill...
Immediately afterward, Fang Yuan found other people, about five or six in total.
However, none of them were willing to battle Fang Yuan.
This couldn't help but make him fall into deep contemplation about life.
If this continued, regardless of the reason, Fang Yuan might have come out for nothing.
"Forget it, let's not waste time. Let's go fight wits and courage with the air." Holding Magnemite's Poké Ball, Fang Yuan said this and came to an empty Training Ground, then called out Magnemite.
(⊙): "Kuo Yi?!"
Magnemite asked about today's training mission.
"Originally, I wanted you to battle with other Pokémon, but unfortunately... due to Eevee's performance in the arena these past two days... no one dares to accept my challenge anymore," Fang Yuan said.
Magnemite also fell into thought, was Fang Yuan implying something?
"Without further ado..." Fang Yuan coughed and said, "Let's continue our previous practice."
"That technique we tried the other day, which I named 'Railgun'."
"Kuo Yi!!"
Magnemite nodded immediately.
That day, Magnemite had four consecutive battles. After recovering its condition, its previous learning progress finally made some headway.
It grasped the Lock-On move.
Most Pokémon use the Lock-On move in different ways.
The principle behind Magnemite's use of Lock-On is to sense the opponent's Psychic Wave through Thunder Wave, thereby locking on.
Because Magnemite itself has a good talent for Psychic Power, it comprehends the Lock-On move much more easily than other Magnemite.
After comprehending Lock-On, Fang Yuan immediately took Magnemite for Special Training in 'Railgun'.
This technique, which could perhaps be called a combination move, can greatly improve Magnemite's strength.
What Magnemite lacks now is a trump card that can play a decisive role.
Eevee had already mastered Counter Shield at its stage.
But Magnemite is still using conventional moves.
As an ambitious Trainer, Fang Yuan is naturally not bound by fixed moves.
All the efforts he is making now are to prepare for building a more complete Move Manual in the future and becoming a Professional Trainer.
Fang Yuan's idea of Railgun emerged, or rather, was recalled, during his Winter Vacation trip.
Using Magnet Bomb as a shell, Magnemite's mastery of high-voltage current, Thunder Wave, and magnetic Ability constructs an electromagnetic field system.
At the same time, Magnemite's powerful Psychic Power cooperates with the Lock-On move to correct the attack trajectory and aim at the target...
A Magnet Bomb with current passing through it will accelerate in the magnetic field, possessing faster speed and stronger lethality. It is a technique completely different from the Electric-type move Railgun.
At the hospital, Magnemite had already mastered Magnet Bomb.
Now, it has also mastered the Lock-On move. Although it is not yet able to skillfully combine the moves, it has been determined through experiments that Magnemite has a certain degree of accuracy with this technique.
So next, just continue practicing. When it evolves into Magneton, if it learns Tri Attack, then this combination move can be used proficiently.
Moreover, as Magnemite becomes more and more proficient in the use of electromagnetic force and Psychic Power, Fang Yuan feels that it is only a matter of time before this move can be used against enemies.
Updates tomorrow and the day after tomorrow~~
