Pokémon: Adventures with Sirona

"Thank you. See you on the court in 15 minutes."

Cam got up and went into the locker room.

Jiro, one of the gymnastics coaches, called out to Xiangtao who was watching her from behind.

"What's wrong? Look at Cam's back."

Xiangtao, who was called out, said to Erlang with a serious expression.

"Mr. Erlang. I have a request."

"Unusual. What's that?"

Originally polite, he usually speaks politely and softly, but at this time his voice is a bit stiff and serious.

"After today, I will fight Mr. Keim."

"Oh, the same today.

"So, I want you to record today's battle with a combat recorder."

"?"

Suoo has fought Kaim many times, but Suoo has never recorded a fight with Kaim.No wonder she didn't record it, because she didn't have this habit in the first place.On the contrary, this record is rare.

"I don't mind, but it's rare. What kind of thinking has changed?"

"No it's hard to explain, but I get the feeling that something is wrong with Mr. Cam today."

"Is that so? I don't feel anything."

"Anyway, please."

Erlang nodded to Xiangtao with an unusually serious face, and then watched him go away.

At the time he didn't understand what it meant, but soon he understood.

Keim and Sumo face off across the field.

Cam was wearing a dark blue dress, turtleneck short-sleeved underwear, and black shorts. It didn't look very good, but only Suoo noticed that the atmosphere he wore was different from before the holiday.

"Let's start?"

"please"

We thanked each other and picked up the monster ball.

"This single-player battle, use 4 Pokémon, no tools, no time limit, can you?"

"Yes"

"Then let's start! I won't lose this time either!"

"This time, we will definitely win"

Sumo was a little surprised by Kaim's words.

So far, Cam has never said a word: "I will win." Due to lack of self-confidence, Cam unconsciously avoids the word "victory", and he declares "victory".I immediately realized that this fact was part of the reason Sumo felt uncomfortable.

That's why Sumo wants to know.Because I thought maybe I could learn something here that I didn't understand, called "power".

"Please go, Haukazaru!"

"Please, Baxamo."

Kaim leads with Bashao and Suoo leads with Goukazaru.Since both are fire and fighting, there is no winning or losing based on genre compatibility.The ability of each other determines the outcome of the Blazers.

"The first move is sure to win! Vigorous, mach fist!"

Gangazaru's high-speed fist approached Mashamo.

Kaim saw this and gave instructions to Bashamo.

"You don't have to dodge it. Use Nitro Charge to deal with it."

Mashamo, clad in flames, caught Gangazaru's fist with his arm.Minor damage, but no problem.

Bazamo wrestled Gangazaru in Nitro Charge state.Gangazaru avoided Mashamo's punch and counter kick, but Mashamo read the move and moved his body to avoid it.As he lost his balance, he threw a punch at Haukazaru, but Haukazaru jumped behind him, minimizing the damage.First of all, Nitro Charge is a fire-type move with low power and almost no damage to Gang Snake.

The essence of Nitro Charge isn't damage, though, but rather increasing physical abilities by sending flames throughout your body.Due to the effect of Nitro Charge, Baxamo's speed is increased by one level.

"build up"

"Please stop! Acrobats!"

Haukazalu jumped up with agility and rushed towards Mashamo with momentum.

Kaim immediately thought that the damage caused by acrobatics was more excessive than the ability improvement brought by savings, and immediately gave instructions to Basamo.

"Stop! Come back!"

Haukazaru's acrobatics only pierced the ground due to the sudden retreat.

Commands are definitely faster than before!

Sumo notices a noticeable increase in the speed at which he gives orders compared to Kaim before him.Not knowing what he was thinking before, Cam's command speed slowed down a notch.That one-rhythm delay was always game-changing, but that delay is gone.

Got stronger.Sumo doesn't understand power, but he does.When I'm in a better mood, I can't help but feel my cheeks relax.

"Haukazaru, it's changed!"

"Flush!"

Mashamo kicked away the sword that Gangazalu swung aside.Then, I took the opportunity to launch SkyUpper at Haukazaru.

The snake just couldn't dodge in time, and hit the sky directly.Since the difference in level was not that big, it suffered a lot of damage, and the body of Gang Snake was slightly floating in the air.

"Fold it! Magic Fire!"

"Dodge to the side!"

Basamo released the magic fire at close range, but Gonkazalu regained his balance in the air and twisted his body to avoid the magic fire.

As expected, it's very light, and shit Pokémon who are quite confident in their speed and agility, it's impossible to escape the ghost that launches at this time.Sirona's Tojikis and Lucario can be avoided, but the comparison goal is too high.

But there is a gap.Cam thinks he'll improve his abilities here.

"build up"

Basamo increases attack and defense.

In this way, all Basamo's abilities, except the special ones, have been upgraded by one level.The slight grade gap with Haukazaru means nothing to this.

"acrobat!"

"Yanmei"

Both fire fly-like actions and collide with each other.Both are very effective and deal a lot of damage.However, Mashamo, who has increased attack power and defense power, enters less damage than Gunkazaru.

"Gang Snake, Sword Dance!"

Thinking that he would be overwhelmed if this continued, Xiangtao used the sword dance to improve his concentration in order to enhance Haukazalu's ability.Its attack power has been increased by two levels, and coupled with its natural agility, it becomes even more powerful.

from here

Basamo's agility is slightly higher than that, but Gonkazaru's agility will allow him to dodge and attack without regard to our agility.

Basamo's physical strength is 50%, and Gangkazaru's physical strength is 40%, but this level of sumo is about to overthrow it.

It's not good if you drag it too long, they have better hands and technique, so I will use speed to crush it.

They have higher speed stats, but the Basamo's speed can be increased with Nitro Charge.Kaim knew that Haukazaru could learn tricks to increase speed, but Sumo didn't.

"Nitro Charge"

"Mach Punch!"

Each other's fists pierced each other's faces.

So they all beat non-stop.I blocked Gosnake's fist with my arm and tried to use that arm to get to the end of Gosnake's arm, but got pulled out and dodged.I stretched out my drawn fist again, but it was bounced off by Basamo's kick.Gangazaru jumped up and kicked a roundabout kick to Mashamo, who blocked the ball with his arm.

This kumite isn't an established technique, so direct hits don't do much damage.It's definitely not pointless, though, as damage will accumulate for sure.

However, Basamo, whose defense technology is still immature, suffered more damage.Haukazaru will also take damage, but the increase in attack power brought by the sword dance, even if it is an attack that is not established as a technique, will cause damage that cannot be ignored.

While fighting Gonkazaru, Basamo remembered what Kaim had said before the fight began.

"Basamo. From now on I'll ask you what you're not good at. No matter who the opponent is, if I don't go out of my way to use this, I still can't make a game that can beat sumo. Can you do it?"

Basamo likes Cam.

We have been together since childhood and traveled together.By the time I've collected badges, I've suffered a lot of failures, but Kem always puts Bckie on the journey first with myself and my sister Jukain, on top of that, I don't have any talent.I think I only responded to his efforts when I saw him move on after understanding.

But he was always a little slavish and lacked self-confidence.I've always wanted to show that Basamo is an amazing guy who knows his trainer is kind and weak but still trying hard.More than just his own strength, Basamo continues to work hard to make those around him realize Kym's greatness as a trainer.

I gave up on fighting at one point when I was done collecting badges, but I want Kaim to do what he wants because he spends his time with Pokémon first, so I respect his path.

However, after meeting Sirona, Cam returned to the fighting ways.Learning from Bai Nai, not only the body and spirit have become much stronger, but Bashamo and Xiao Hei have also become stronger.And with the increase of new friends, I can also experience the fun of fighting more.

This intensified Basamo's desire to "make those around him realize how great Keim is."

But even so, Cam didn't believe in himself, underestimated himself, and couldn't believe in his choice.That's why I know the battle strategy is to take advantage of the Pokémon's strengths and make choices that mimic Sirona.

Basamo sometimes resents himself for not being able to convince Cam to recognize him.Blackkey, Lucario, and Mukhok will feel the same way.

Keim, however, believed Basamo was based on "a policy he made himself," rather than imitating others, and asked about his weaknesses.

If so, I must answer.

For myself, and for Cam who believed.

"This is a Mach punch!"

Baxamo leaned back from Maher's punch in the face.

Taking this as an opportunity, Sumo immediately made a decision.

"It's here! Infighting!"

Gangazaru's attack hit Mashamo.No matter how much defensive power is increased through strengthening, Haukazaru increases attack power through sword dance.And my stamina has been reduced by 40%.Needless to say, what will happen if Haukazaru's infighting is received in that state.

The continuous fists pierced Bashamo's body precisely.Sumo believes Basamo should now be incapacitated.

However, internal strife hit directly, and Basamo, who was supposed to collapse, stood in front of him.

"lie?"

I don't know why I was able to get up, but I got the answer quickly.
