Pokemon: Daily Intelligence Updates

Sharp claws swept across, and the figure of Houndoom dissipated like a bubble.

In the blink of an eye, Houndoom appeared behind Charizard.

"Roar loudly."

Houndoom opened its mouth and let out a deafening roar.

After being hit by the high-frequency sound waves, Charizard's head felt like it had been hit by a hammer, its brain buzzing and its eyes seeing stars.

Blood flowed from its ears and eyes.

However, this Charizard possessed dragon blood, so it recovered completely in just a few seconds.

"Charizard, use Blast Burn."

Charizard turned its head, and a ball of fire spewed out of its mouth.

The air around the fireball was distorted to varying degrees.

Wisps of white smoke rose from the fireball.

"Dodge it, Houndoom."

Houndoom transformed into a black stream of light and disappeared from sight.

The fireball spread out in mid-air, forming a large character.

The Blast Burn struck the ground, instantly melting it.

A huge character was left on the ground.

"Dark Pulse."

Terrifying dark energy gathered in Houndoom's mouth.

A black beam of light blasted towards Charizard's back.

Because Houndoom was so close, Charizard didn't have time to react, and even using Quick Attack wouldn't avoid Dark Pulse.

Charizard's back was attacked, and it staggered forward several steps.

Its back was burning with pain.

"Charizard, don't engage in close combat with Houndoom."

"Fly up quickly."

Li Yao shouted loudly at Charizard.

But it was too late.

Houndoom had already pounced on Charizard's back and bit down hard on Charizard's wings.

Charizard's miserable cry rang out.

It became extremely anxious, its heart pounding faster than during a normal battle.

Ignoring the injury to its wings, Charizard still flapped its strong wings and flew into the air.

The flapping of its wings generated gusts of wind, blowing Houndoom away.

Charizard flew into the high sky, looking down at Houndoom.

The corners of Houndoom's mouth curled up slightly, and it let out a cold laugh.

"Very good, Charizard, use Outrage."

Outrage is a Dragon-type Pokémon move. Once Outrage is used, one's own power will increase, but it can also easily cause the Pokémon to fall into a state of confusion.

Now that Charizard was being played with by Houndoom, Li Yao couldn't care less.

Charizard's eyes widened, and a violent pressure appeared on its body.

One of its scales quietly stood up.

Charizard's eyes were bloodshot.

It was so hot. It wanted to turn everything around it into a sea of fire, which would be even more magnificent.

Charizard suddenly spewed out a Flamethrower from its mouth.

This flame, like a flying dragon emerging from the sea, blasted towards Houndoom.

With a bang, thick smoke instantly billowed on the ground.

Black smoke soared into the sky.

At this time, Houndoom had already appeared on the other side.

"Yo ho, you little guy is really quite stubborn."

Li Yao was anxious to defeat Houndoom and didn't check on Charizard's current condition.

Where Charizard was originally hit by Houndoom, black blood was faintly flowing out.

Its face turned pale, but because of the thick smoke on the scene, Li Yao didn't notice.

"Keep struggling, keep struggling. Charizard was already poisoned by Houndoom's Poison Fang."

"As Charizard flaps its wings, the poison has spread throughout Charizard's entire body through blood circulation."

"This way, Houndoom will soon be able to achieve victory."

"Charizard, continue, use Blast Burn."

Charizard opened its mouth, and scorching flames gathered in Charizard's mouth.

The flames gradually formed a scorching fireball, and it suddenly spewed out a scorching flame from its mouth.

The two-meter-diameter fireball fell from the sky like a meteor shower, as if trying to completely bury Houndoom here.

But was that possible?

Xia Mu didn't believe it, Li Yao didn't believe it, and the audience on the field didn't believe it either.

Houndoom is a Fire-type Pokémon, and high temperature is the most suitable battlefield for it.

"Houndoom, highly compress Blast Burn until it can't be compressed anymore, and then spew it out of your mouth."

Sparks surged in Houndoom's mouth as it compressed the flames in its mouth step by step.

The flames formed a palm-sized fireball that blasted straight ahead.

The fireball spread out instantly, contending with Charizard's Blast Burn.

The two fireballs were deadlocked in mid-air.

In Charizard's surprised gaze, the fireball gradually pushed Blast Burn away.

At this time, the fireball stretched out in mid-air, and the area became larger and larger.

Just as it was about to hit itself, it wanted to dodge, but found that its body didn't have a trace of strength.

Its head was dizzy, and its body was out of control.

Charizard could only watch as the Blast Burn blasted towards itself.

With a loud bang, Charizard fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string.

Its whole body was emitting black smoke, looking quite embarrassed.

"Charizard, was that backlash from its own skill?"

"It should be. Charizard's strength shouldn't be weak. Why is it so bad against Houndoom?"

"Could it be because it met Master Xia?"

"Speaking of which, Houndoom is quite handsome. Maybe I'll choose Houndoom when I choose a Pokémon in the future."

The crowd murmured.

"Charizard!!!"

"Cheer up a bit. We agreed to fight to the end."

"We absolutely can't admit defeat. Even if we lose, we have to lose gloriously."

"Get up quickly, crawl up quickly, we haven't lost!"

Li Yao's words awakened Charizard's consciousness, and Charizard slowly climbed up from the ground.

It swayed and began to walk a little unsteadily.

Seeing Charizard like this, Xia Mu didn't want to continue attacking.

"Charizard, very good, keep it up. I believe you can defeat Houndoom."

Listening to Li Yao's heartfelt words, tears instantly filled Charizard's eyes.

It was really too tired, a feeling of being hollowed out.

But it had promised that it would fight to the end, so bring it on, Houndoom.

I, Old Dragon, will not lose to you.

Charizard let out a long howl to the sky.

The flames on its tail soared into the sky.

At this time, Charizard's fighting spirit soared. Even if it was about to run out of energy, it would fight to the last moment.

"Charizard, use the maximum Flamethrower."

Charizard was brewing Flamethrower, and sparks kept falling from the corners of its mouth, falling to the ground.

The surrounding temperature began to rise rapidly.

Even the solid earth was melted by the temperature on Charizard's body.

"Houndoom, let's make this the final blow."

"We can't let Charizard use its final blow. You'll be seriously injured. Don't take this hit head-on."

Xia Mu crossed his arms and gave a calm instruction.

Houndoom nodded. It could also faintly feel that Charizard's attack would pose a great threat to it.

Since that's the case, let's use this move to finish this quickly.

Even if this move will exhaust most of my stamina.

Houndoom's body tensed up, turning into a stream of light as it rushed towards the distance.

It kept accelerating, accelerating, leaving behind afterimages wherever it went.

In the blink of an eye, Houndoom had already arrived beside Charizard.

It headbutted Charizard's stomach.

Charizard only felt as if its stomach was churning violently.

It took a few steps back and directly collapsed onto the ground.

Bang, a large amount of smoke billowed from the ground.

The flames on its tail became extremely dim, clearly indicating that Charizard had fainted.

At this moment, the referee walked over.

He carefully checked Charizard's current state and pried open Charizard's eyelids to take a look.

Charizard's pupils were dilated, proving that it had fallen into a state of unconsciousness.

This match has already been decided.

"The winner of this round is Xia Mu, congratulations to Xia Mu for becoming the champion of the Yan Dong Province Little Phoenix King Cup."

"Congratulations to player Li Yao for becoming the runner-up of the Yan Dong Province Little Phoenix King Cup."

The host offered his blessings to the two of them.

"Alright, the results of the third-place battle have also been announced."

"Congratulations to player Zhang Xing for winning the third place in the Yan Dong Province Little Phoenix King Cup."

"Let us once again give a warm round of applause to congratulate these three players."

"The closing ceremony will begin in one hour, please do not leave."

After the host finished speaking, he walked down from the stage.

Xia Mu was then led by the staff to clean up a bit, while also allowing his Pokémon to maintain their best condition.

One hour later.

Xia Mu arrived beside the stage.

At this time, many young ladies wearing cheongsams were already walking out, carrying trays.

The trays were filled with many prizes.

"These are the prizes for the top ten."

"The specific selection order will be based on the ranking of this Little Phoenix King Cup."

"Next, player Xia Mu will have the priority to choose a prize."

After hearing the words of the organizing committee chairman, Xia Mu appeared quite calm.

He walked towards the target he had long been eyeing and put Houndoom's Mega Evolution Stone into his pocket.

This Evolution Stone, under the sun's rays, emitted a dazzling light.

"That's strange, why did Xia Mu choose that thing that looks like a glass bead?"

"Could it be that he knows what this thing is?"

Currently, the research on Mega Evolution Stones has not yet been made public, so many people do not know the effects of Mega Evolution Stones.

If the organizing committee chairman knew that this was a Mega Evolution Stone and could allow Pokémon to undergo Mega Evolution, he would never have given this thing away as a prize.

After choosing his treasure, Xia Mu leaned against a nearby pillar and began to close his eyes to rest.

After everyone had chosen, the organizing committee chairman continued to speak.

"Everyone is a future contestant aiming for the National Competition."

"The National Competition will be held in March next year."

"If you can achieve good results in the National Competition, you may be admitted to the Imperial Capital University."

"I hope everyone has good luck."

"By the way, Xia Mu, please stay behind."

Xia Mu suddenly thought of the 'Champion's Look Back' program.

"Xia Mu, in fact, we will invite the previous champion to have a battle with this year's champion."

"I know you still have to participate in the Chansey Cup, and there may be a conflict in time."

"But I still hope that you can participate in this event."

"If you can defeat your opponent, I can give you some information about a Pseudo-Legendary."

The organizing committee chairman said to Xia Mu.

Xia Mu muttered in his heart, you bad old man, I believe you're a ghost.

Is useful information given by the information system as useful as yours?

You want the horse to run, but you don't give the horse grass, how can there be such a good thing.

If you give enough real money, what's wrong with calling you dad!

You are really too insincere, ugly refusal, must be an ugly refusal.

"This condition does not move me."

"It's just information about a Pseudo-Legendary, it's not worth me spending so much time on."

Xia Mu shook his head and refused.

"Young man, don't be too greedy."

"You can't have both."

"That is news about a Pseudo-Legendary, are you not tempted?"

The organizing committee chairman continued to bewitch him.

If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely be tempted at this time.

But Xia Mu is not, what is a Pseudo-Legendary.

Can it be eaten?

Can I afford to raise it?

I already have two Pseudo-Legendaries, and I'm already under a lot of pressure.

And you're still telling me about Pseudo-Legendary information.

If you were to reward me with a definite Pseudo-Legendary, I would have a high opinion of you.

As a result, you're just drawing a big cake.

Xia Mu shook his head and was about to turn around and leave when the organizing committee chairman gritted his teeth.

"How about this, as long as you participate in this battle, the appearance fee is 10 million Yan Huang coins, and it will be credited instantly."

The organizing committee chairman shouted with some heartache.

"20 million Yan Huang coins, the price is not negotiable, we can talk if we can, I'll leave if we can't."

Looking at Xia Mu's fox-like, agile, and smiling expression, the organizing committee chairman couldn't help but want to punch him.

You're asking for the sky.

But thinking about Xia Mu's current worth, the organizing committee chairman gradually extinguished his anger.

"Okay."

Seeing the organizing committee chairman agree so readily, Xia Mu felt that he had quoted a low price.

"The Chansey Cup will start next week."

"Then the 'Champion's Look Back' program will start in three days."

"The competition location is still here."

"The previous Yan Dong Province champion is not weak."

"Don't get beaten up by your opponent."

The organizing committee chairman reminded him.

These three days are not easy to use.

Pichu lazily leaned on Xia Mu's shoulder, it yawned.

Xia Mu could feel that something was wrong with Pichu recently.

Its body faintly emitted a white light.

It seemed that Pichu was about to evolve soon.

"So you've reached the time to evolve, Pichu."

"You don't have to suppress your urge to evolve."

"Tomorrow will be a thunderstorm."

"We can go to the Canton Tower to welcome your final evolution."

"Let's see if you can finally learn the move Thunderbolt."

Thunderbolt was Gu Jianfeng's Electivire's ultimate move, and before it disappeared, it passed this skill on to Pichu.

"Pichu, Pichu."

Pichu called out lazily a few times, it didn't want to move.

It had recently been accumulating the electric energy in its body, and it was time to evolve, now it was just waiting for a thunderstorm night, to find the right opportunity to welcome the thunder and help itself evolve.

Now that it had free time, it would go online to watch the live broadcast to see if there were any people in need of help who needed it to answer questions.
