my pokemon player.

"Haha!"

Following Chen Yan's order, the stinky flower sprayed a large amount of poisonous powder from its stamens, sweeping towards the Explosive Ape.

Faced with such a large amount of poison powder, the Explosive Ape had nowhere to hide and could only watch the poison powder fall on him.

"Explosion~"

After the Explosive Ape was contaminated by the poison powder, a strange lavender color appeared on its face, and it was obvious that it had fallen into a state of severe poisoning.

Bennett frowned upon seeing this: "Poisonous state? It's a little troublesome, but not too much."

"The other party wanted to wear me out, but unfortunately his stinky flower couldn't last that long."

Thinking of this, Bennett relaxed his brows and ordered the Exploding Ape:
"Exploding Ape, quick and decisive, use Flame Splash to get rid of it!"

"burst!"

The Explosive Ape growled, raised its head and shot a stream of flame upward from its mouth, forming an orange-red fireball in the air and exploding, and then splashed multiple streams of flame towards the Stinky Flower.

Since the flames splashed over a large area, it was difficult for the Vileflower to avoid them, and it had no intention of dodging. It just stood there and watched the flames falling from the sky.

Seeing that Bumblebee was standing there in a daze as if frightened, Bennett couldn't help but smile smugly on his face.

When Vileplume is hit by [Flame Splash], it will be seriously injured even if it does not lose its combat ability.

At that time, the Explosive Ape can use any move to take down the opponent and win the battle.

It seems that this knight who insisted on fighting against him was just so-so. He thought the other party was so strong, but it turned out to be just an arrogant noble knight.

If the other guards hadn't been so useless, leaving him surrounded, he might have been able to fight his way out.

It’s a pity that the situation is stronger than him, and he can only be forced to surrender to these knights.

Bennett sighed in his heart, put away the smile on his face, and began to think about how to calm Chen Yan's emotions and prevent him from taking his anger out on himself.

At this moment, Chen Yan's instructions came to Bennett's ears:
"Stinky Flower, use Hold!"

What? Hold on?

Bennett suddenly raised his head and looked at the Stinky Flower opposite him.

I saw Vileflower stretch out its two short little arms and condense a white shield in front of itself.

The shield easily blocked the falling flames, and the Vileflower behind the shield took no damage.

"How is this possible?"

Bennett couldn't help but widen his eyes. He was not surprised that [Defend] blocked [Flame Splash].

As the captain of the guard team, coupled with a favorable family environment, he learned and mastered a lot of Warcraft knowledge, and naturally knew the effect of the [Defend] move.

Not to mention that there are people in their guard team who have used this move. Captain Connor's main monster, the Blastoise, often uses this move, and it often has good effects.

Therefore, what surprised him was not the effect of the move [Hold], but why could Vileflower use [Hold]? This doesn't make sense!
The stinking flower is not a rare magical beast. It is everywhere in the Firefly Forest. Bennett has seen countless stinking flowers, but none of them can use the [Defend] move.

Why can the opposing Smelly Flower use this move? Is it because it is a noble monster?
So there are civilians and nobles in World of Warcraft, right?

Bennett was puzzled and decided not to think about it any more.

Isn't it just [hold on]? It's not like there is no way to crack it.

Thanks to Captain Connor's combat teaching, most guards knew the shortcomings of [Hold], and Bennett was no exception.

"Although the defensive move is powerful, the success rate will be greatly reduced when it is released continuously."

"As long as you keep attacking, Vileflower will soon be unable to use this move."

"I want to see how Stinky Flower blocks the next move!"

Bennett shouted to the Explosive Ape, "Explosive Ape, keep using Flame Splash!"

After receiving the order, the Explosive Ape once again sprayed multiple flames at the Stinky Flower.

Bennett stared at Vilebloom, wanting to see if it could successfully release [Hold] this time.

However, Vile Flower didn't use any moves and took the attack head-on, and was burned to ashes by the flames.

Seeing this, Bennett looked at Chen Yan in confusion. He didn't understand why the other party didn't resist. Did he want to admit defeat?

But he always felt something was wrong. Wait! Where's the stinky flower? !

The flame splash of the Explosive Ape is powerful, but it is not enough to burn the Vileflower to ashes!
Before Bennett could think about it, Chen Yan seized the opportunity and ordered Stinky Flower:

"Stinky Flower, use Ultimate Drain!"

"Haha!"

The reappearing Vileflower fired a green beam at the Ape, hitting it accurately and continuously absorbing its energy.

It was not until this move was over that Bennett reacted. He immediately asked the Explosive Ape:
"Explosive Ape, are you okay?"

Explosive Ape turned his head and looked at Bennett with a resentful expression, then pointed at the gradually deepening purple color on his face.

Do you think I'm okay?
Even though the [Ultimate Absorption] move just now did not cause much damage to it, the toxins in its body were increasing, causing harm to it every moment.

If you don't find a way to get rid of the toxins in your body, or get rid of the opponent, then you will be killed by the highly toxic state!
Bennett naturally knew the disgusting aspect of the highly poisonous state. Unlike the ordinary poisoning state, the damage caused by the highly poisonous state to the monster was increasing.

In other words, the longer the battle lasts, the greater the damage the Explosive Ape will suffer.

The problem is that even if he knew that he would only die slowly if time went on, there was nothing he could do about it.

Once a monster is poisoned, it is difficult to cure the poison. The toxins in the body can only be removed through antidotes, special moves, and individual tree fruits.

Therefore, the guards hate encountering poison-attribute Pokémon the most in the wild environment. If they are not careful, their own Pokémon will be poisoned.

Although they carry potions with them to cure the poisoning of monsters, the price of potions is very expensive.

Even if they only used one bottle of potion, their escort mission this time would be in vain, and they would even have to pay for it.

Of course, as a second-generation rich man, Bennett certainly had no shortage of money. He also had potions on him, including antidotes and healing medicines produced in Firefly Town. However, he was too embarrassed to use them.
If it was a life-and-death battle, let alone using antidotes, no one would say anything even if he let the Explosive Ape attack Chen Yan directly, but he and Chen Yan were just fighting an ordinary Warcraft battle.

Bennett really couldn't bring himself to use the antidote on the Explosive Ape, not to mention that the other party would not give him the chance to use the antidote.

And if he breaks the rules, Chen Yan can also use the props.

After the previous battles, everyone in the escort team knew that these knights were accustomed to using a variety of props.

Bennett shuddered at the thought of those balls that released sticky white webs, made loud noises, and released smoke.

For some reason, the items used by these knights are all round, even the Poké Balls that can temporarily seal their monsters are round. This has caused many guards to have psychological trauma against round objects. Although Bennett has not developed a psychological trauma yet, he does not want to be tortured by these round items, so he quickly gave up the idea of ​​using antidote.

Since it is impossible to detoxify the Explosive Ape, the only way is to get rid of the Stinky Flower before the Explosive Ape can no longer hold on.

Bennett clenched his hands and ordered the Exploding Ape:

"If long-range attacks don't work, then let's use close combat. It's a good opportunity to see what move Vileflower just used."

"Go ahead, use Bite!"

"burst!"

The Explosive Ape endured the torture and pain of the poison and rushed towards the Stinky Flower.

Looking at the staggering Exploding Ape, Chen Yan muttered to himself:
"Unfortunately, due to the attribute restraint, the Ultimate Absorption did not cause much damage to the Explosive Ape, and it was also unable to replenish the physical strength lost by using the Stand."

"But it doesn't matter. I didn't intend to attack in the first place. It was just because the timing just now was too good."

"The poison state will cause more and more damage to the Explosive Ape. I can win this battle as long as I continue to drag it out."

"Stinky Flower, hold on!" Chen Yan ordered Stinky Flower calmly.

Once again, Vileflower formed a white shield to block the bite of Explosive Ape.

Bennett was not surprised by this, he knew that Vileflower would definitely use [Protect] to block Explosive Ape's attack.

The reason why he asked the Explosive Ape to use [Bite] was just to get closer to the distance so as to test the move that Vileflower had just used.

"Exploding Ape, use Flame Splash!"

As Bennett shouted, the Explosive Ape spit out flames at the Stink Flower in front of him.

Logically speaking, at such a close distance, Vile Flower could only take the attack head-on, but the attack of the Explosive Ape still missed.

Oh no, to be precise, the attack of the Explosive Ape did not miss, it just did not hit the body of the Vileflower.

And Bennett finally heard Chen Yan's instruction: "Use a substitute."

Stand-in? What kind of move is this?
Bennett's face was full of confusion.

Unlike [Hold] which many Pokémon can master by leveling up, there are not many Pokémon that can master the move [Substitute], and most of them are rare monsters.

Therefore, there are few records of the effects of the [Substitute] move by various forces. Only the great nobles with profound background, or forces with a long history like the Temple of Poseidon, will have records of this move.

Although the Chamber of Commerce is also a considerable force, they have not been developed for long and are more like a nouveau riche.

If they were not running the Warcraft business and had no access to large numbers of Warcraft, their knowledge of Warcraft would probably be worse than that of the petty nobles.

Because the Shanghu Association wants to catch up with the gap in Warcraft knowledge as quickly as possible, and there is too much Warcraft knowledge to record, uncommon moves such as [Stand].

So Bennett had never heard of the move [Substitute], let alone knew its effect.

However, he was not stupid. Based on Vileflower's previous combat performance and the Warcraft knowledge he had mastered, he was able to analyze the general effect of the [Stand].

"A substitute move, as the name suggests, is to create a substitute, and then hide the main body, so that the opponent's moves can only attack the substitute, thus resisting the opponent's attack."

"So, could it be that [Stand] is a more powerful defensive move than [Hold]?"

"No! How could a Pokémon master such a perfect move? This move must have flaws!"

"For example, the stand is very fragile, and a ball of fire can burn it cleanly."

"And creating a substitute may come at a price. The opponent just ignored the poison-attribute move and used the [Ultimate Absorption] which is restrained by the attribute. The purpose should be to absorb the stamina of the Explosive Ape."

"So, the price you have to pay to create a substitute is your own physical strength?"

I have to admit that Bennett is indeed a well-educated rich second-generation. Whether in Warcraft knowledge or analytical ability, he is not inferior to Harson and other team captains.

All he lacks is strength. If he is given some time to grow, perhaps he can become the sixth captain of the guard team.

However, even if he analyzed the effects of the Stand's moves, he couldn't think of a way to deal with it.

[Poison], [Hold] and [Substitute] all have their shortcomings, but these three moves can complement each other.

[Poison] requires a longer battle time, [Defend] and [Substitute] can help block the opponent's attack and buy enough time for the poison to take effect.

Continuous use of [Hold] will reduce the probability of success, so use [Substitute] to transition.

[Substitute] requires the use of one's own physical strength and cannot be used multiple times. However, under the damage of [Poison], the opponent cannot hold on until his own physical strength is exhausted.

These three moves form a virtuous circle. As long as the opponent enters a poisonous state, he can only wait for death.

The more Bennett thought about it, the more desperate he became, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He originally thought that Chen Yan sent Chou Chou Hua to fight because of arrogance, but he didn't expect that the other party was fully prepared.

On the contrary, when he saw Vileplume, he underestimated his enemy and let Vileplume attack first, completely falling into the opponent's trap.

If I had not underestimated the enemy and attacked Vileflower first, would the situation of this battle have been different?
Bennett thought for a moment, then shook his head helplessly.

Even if he attacks first, Vileplume can use [Protect] to resist, and then take the opportunity to release [Poison].

As long as you are not on guard against this tactic, the opponent will always succeed. The only difference may be that the opponent will not win so easily.

"Captain Bennett, why are you silent? Are you going to admit defeat?"

Just as Bennett was thinking about how to crack this tactic in the future, Chen Yan's voice interrupted his thoughts.

He then remembered that the battle was not over yet, and said to Chen Yan with a wry smile:

"I have no chance of winning this battle, but Explosive Ape and I will fight to the last minute. Let me be the first winner of this great tactic!"

After saying that, Bennett once again commanded the Explosive Ape to launch an attack.

"Great tactics? I just hope I don't get scolded too badly."

Chen Yan muttered something, and then gave a series of "complicated" instructions to Chouchou.

Hold on to it or not, hold on to it!
Finally, under the torture of the poison, the Explosive Ape lost its ability to fight.

Before it closed its eyes, an expression of relief appeared on its face.

"Is this a win?"

Xu Ruofeng, who was watching the fight from the side, swallowed and said after seeing the Explosive Ape fall down.

"No, how can there be such a dirty routine!" (End of this chapter)
