Pokemon: Daily Intelligence Updates

"Lairon."

"For the upcoming match, you need to work hard."

"I'll be cheering you on."

Xia Mu patted Lairon's head, and Lairon smiled, its eyes crinkling.

"Come on, let me see how much you've improved."

"Pidgeotto, you be the target."

Xia Mu said to Pidgeotto, who flapped its wings and flew over from where it was resting.

"Lairon, come on."

"Use Rock Tomb."

A silver light flashed on Lairon's body, as if it had used some kind of skill first.

Then it lifted its front foot and stomped heavily on the ground.

The entire ground shook violently, and countless sharp stone thorns emerged from the ground, rushing towards Pidgeotto.

Pidgeotto easily weaved through the stone thorns.

But soon Pidgeotto noticed something: the stone thorns were very fast. Although not as fast as itself, ordinary Pokémon might not be able to withstand them.

"Lairon, use Rock Throw."

Earthen-yellow energy gathered in mid-air, and countless heavy rocks suddenly appeared from the sky.

A large cloud of darkness appeared above Pidgeotto, and the darkness was rapidly spreading.

"Lairon, use Rock Blast."

The solid rocks suddenly burst open, turning into countless fragments scattered in mid-air.

Pidgeotto easily avoided all the attacks. After training with Gust, Pidgeotto's speed had broken through.

So Lairon's attacks couldn't hit even a single feather on Pidgeotto.

"Alright, Lairon, it's clear that you've been training very hard."

Xia Mu crouched down and rubbed Lairon's head.

The surrounding Pokémon gathered around.

"Everyone, let's work together and reach the peak of the world."

"We must become the strongest trainer and the strongest breeder in this world."

The next day, the semi-finals officially opened.

The stands were packed with people who had come to watch the excitement.

Many of them were Xia Mu's fans.

"I heard that Master Xia's opponent this time is very strong, the champion of Peng City, and the Pokémon he has are very powerful."

"That's what they say, but I have a lot of confidence in Master Xia. I believe Master Xia can break through the siege."

"Haha, Master Xia is indeed very hardworking, but it would be better if he spent more time on Pokémon live streams."

"He's been participating in this competition, and he's been away from us for a long time. We haven't seen any notice of his return to streaming. I really miss the days when he gave out lucky bags."

Everyone was talking about it, while Xia Mu looked at the spirited young man in front of him.

"Hello, Xia Mu, I am Leo, the champion of Peng City."

"Let's have a unique battle today."

"Come on out, Pawniard."

Sure enough, in the first match, the opponent sent out Pawniard.

【Pokémon Name: Pawniard】

【Gender: Male】

【Aptitude: Blue Aptitude】

【Characteristic: Defiant】

【Level: 28】

【Type: Steel + Dark】

【Skills: Metal Claw (Proficient), Iron Head (Proficient), Assurance (Proficient), Fury Cutter (Proficient), Dark Pulse (Proficient), Howl (Proficient), Crunch (Proficient), X-Scissor (Proficient), Slash (Proficient), Dig (Proficient)】

【Evaluation: This is a Pawniard with extremely strong battle talent. It can quickly find the opponent's weak points and then tear the opponent to pieces.】

"This guy has extremely strong battle talent."

"Lairon, you need to be careful."

This time, Xia Mu sent out Lairon.

Lairon looked at Pawniard, a curious expression on its face.

"Pawniard, use Focus Energy, then use Slash."

Leo didn't give Lairon any time to react, so he instructed Pawniard to attack immediately.

A one-meter-long blade of energy flew out and slammed into Lairon's body.

Sparks then flew out and scattered in mid-air.

Pawniard took a closer look and found that Lairon didn't have even a single scratch on its body. It opened its big, innocent eyes, looking somewhat incredulous.

"Heavens, Lairon doesn't have any damage at all, how is this possible?"

"Although my Pawniard's level is not high, it can leave a mark on a Steelix with extremely high defense."

"Your Lairon is even more defensive than Steelix, it's really unbelievable."

"Of course, I don't believe that your Lairon's defense can always be so strong."

"Pawniard, use Agility."

Agility is a combination skill of Swift and Quick Attack.

This can be considered Leo's Pawniard's signature skill.

Once it uses this move, its speed will get a qualitative leap, but this also has a certain impact on its body.

"Pawniard, use Sacred Sword."

Pawniard turned into a stream of light and rushed towards Lairon.

In just the blink of an eye, Pawniard appeared in front of it.

Its hands turned into blades, and it heavily slashed at Lairon.

Two sounds of air being torn apart rang out. After Lairon was hit by Sacred Sword, it only felt that its entire head was dizzy.

It staggered backwards, looking dizzy.

Pawniard endured the tearing pain in its hands. It raised its arm high, intending to use the Sacred Sword skill again.

"Lairon."

Xia Mu shouted at Lairon.

"Use Rock Tomb."

Seeing that Pawniard seemed to want to continue using Sacred Sword, Xia Mu quickly gave the command.

A one-meter-high rock rose from the ground, directly knocking Pawniard away.

Pawniard adjusted its body in mid-air and landed steadily on the ground.

However, the backlash from Sacred Sword, coupled with the attack from Rock Tomb, was a significant injury for Pawniard.

It knelt on one knee, its sharp eyes staring intently at the simple-minded Lairon.

This was the first time Pawniard had encountered such a difficult opponent.

It felt that its body was somewhat tired.

The backlash of Agility was also gradually coming.

"Pawniard, don't lose, do you want to lose to such an opponent?"

"Think about your unwavering confidence, think about your beliefs."

"When facing powerful opponents, we use our beliefs to break through them."

"We must break the current predicament and make ourselves even better."

"Pawniard, go, defeat Lairon."

"I believe you can do it."

Xia Mu looked at his opponent in surprise. This opponent was a passionate youth, and the words he said even made him feel excited.

Pawniard condensed the power of its whole body and swung a two-meter-high blade of energy.

Lairon only felt as if it was locked on by the blade of energy.

Its whole body seemed to be unable to move.

As the blade of energy continued to approach, its feeling became more obvious.

"Lairon, use Rock Tomb."

"Close your eyes, don't look at the blade of energy."

Xia Mu then gave an instruction.

Aron was the most obedient Pokémon. Whatever Xia Mu said, Aron would do.

So, Aron used all his strength to lift his foot and stomp heavily on the ground.

Rumble, rumble.

Countless rocks, each a meter high, emerged from the ground like bamboo shoots after a rain.

Wherever the sword energy passed, the rocks were cleanly sliced off at the base, revealing an incredibly smooth surface.

"Take this chance, Aron, use Dig."

Seeing that Aron was about to escape, Pawniard could no longer sit still.

It stomped its feet fiercely on the ground and leaped high into the air.

The newest novels are first published on 69shu!

The sharp blade in its hand emitted a chilling light under the sun's rays.

Pawniard fiercely swung its holy sword at Aron.

Silvery-white sword energy crisscrossed and spread out in mid-air.

It was almost too late for Aron to use Dig.

So, Aron decided to withstand this storm-like attack head-on.

Xia Mu saw Aron's intention.

"Aron, use Rock Tomb."

"Keep your eyes closed."

The eyes are the windows to the soul. What the eyes see might affect Aron's performance.

After Aron closed his eyes, he only needed to follow orders.

So, Aron very easily used the move Rock Tomb.

Countless stone spikes shot out like bullets, blasting Pawniard away in mid-air.

Pawniard fell from the sky like a broken sack, crashing heavily onto the ground.

The ground was smashed into a shallow pit, showing that Pawniard was severely injured.

"Pawniard, are you alright?"

"Can you continue?"

Leo asked loudly.

Xia Mu, who originally thought that Aron could breathe a sigh of relief after dealing with Pawniard, suddenly discovered that Pawniard struggled to get up again.

Pawniard felt pain all over its body. Every time it moved, it relied on astonishing willpower to support itself.

It was originally a Pokémon that had been abandoned. On a rainy night, it was abandoned by someone.

Other trainers believed that its strength was weak, and it couldn't even beat ordinary Pokémon, so they thought it had no combat ability.

In fact, Pawniard's talent was very strong. The battles were lost because the trainer gave blind commands, and as a result, the trainer put all the blame on Pawniard.

Thinking of this made the trainer angry. Taking advantage of the rainy night, he came to a trash can and abandoned Pawniard.

"Trash should stay where trash belongs."

The words left by the former owner were like a sharp blade, piercing into Pawniard's heart.

Pawniard's heart seemed to have a huge hole.

It suddenly felt that it was meaningless to live.

So, Pawniard staggered onto a bridge.

It looked at the rushing river and swallowed hard.

In the face of utter despair, Pawniard leaped.

It wanted to disappear from the world, it felt that it really didn't deserve to live in the world.

It seemed that no one in the world was willing to care about it, even a little care would be good.

Tears mixed with rain flowed down Pawniard's face.

Just then, a figure suddenly sprang out from somewhere and tightly grabbed Pawniard's hand.

Pawniard's hand was very sharp, like a sharp kitchen knife.

"Pawniard, hold on, I'll pull you up now."

"You must not do anything stupid."

Leo shouted loudly at Pawniard.

Pawniard's hand cut through Leo's palm, and blood flowed down Leo's hand.

The blood dripped into Pawniard's eyes, dyeing them red.

"Pawniard, don't give up, believe that you can do it."

"Everyone in the world can give up on you, only you yourself cannot give up."

"You must believe in yourself, you can do it."

Leo continued to encourage Pawniard.

Pawniard's heart, which had been scarred by humans, burned again because of Leo's words.

Pawniard suddenly felt that his previous thoughts were very naive.

Wasn't there someone willing to accept him?

In the whole world, there was still someone willing to help him.

With a sour nose, Pawniard once again had the urge to live.

It suddenly swung a sword energy downwards, and with the impact of the sword energy, flew to the bridge.

"Pawniard, live on, don't give up your life because of some bad people."

"Every life has the value of living, the respect of living."

"You must not give up on yourself."

At this time, Leo felt a burning pain in his palm.

"Pawniard, you're rained on, I'm willing to be the umbrella that shelters you from the wind and rain!"

"I don't know if you are willing to become my Pokémon, we must become the most powerful Pokémon in the world, the most powerful trainer."

"We will always move in this direction."

"Okay?"

Leo handed his bleeding hand to himself, his face full of smiles.

Pawniard, who originally wanted to die, felt alive.

He would become a knight, a knight fighting on the battlefield for Leo.

Pawniard will definitely realize Leo's simple wish, and will definitely stand on the top of the mountain and look down on the heroes.

Recalling this, a gleam flashed in Pawniard's eyes.

A white light of evolution emerged from his body.

Xia Mu also had a smile on his face when he saw Pawniard starting to evolve.

Because Aron was also starting to evolve.

The white light of evolution spread throughout Aron's body.

Soon, Pawniard completed the evolution first, and the white light disappeared.

A majestic Bisharp appeared.

[Pokémon Name: Bisharp]

[Gender: Male]

[Aptitude: Blue Aptitude]

[Characteristic: Defiant]

[Level: 30]

[Type: Steel + Dark]

[Moves: Metal Claw (Proficient), Iron Head (Proficient), Assurance (Mastered), Fury Swipes (Proficient), Dark Pulse (Mastered), Howl (Proficient), Crunch (Proficient), X-Scissor (Mastered), Slash (Proficient), Dig (Proficient)]

[Evaluation: This is a Bisharp with extremely strong combat talent. It can quickly find the opponent's vitals and then dismember the opponent. Because of its trust in its trainer, it completed the final evolution.]

Bisharp coldly looked at Aron, who was evolving. Just as it was about to attack, it was stopped by Leo.
