Electric Valley, Magnetic Mountain
Blaziken advanced slowly, facing Zebstrika on the opposite side, while Metang tightly closed its eyes to absorb the magnetic waves.
Bruce first looked at Blaziken and then at Metang, with many thoughts on his mind.
At the beginning, I chose Torchic as my Starter Pokemon because I needed a Pokemon to boost my progress in the early stage so I could maintain enough competitiveness at the start.
Torchic did exactly that, growing at an amazing speed, earning first place for Bruce in the military training camp, and winning many battles.
Now, it has evolved into Blaziken, helping Bruce smoothly navigate through the initial stage.
Metang and Kirlia have also gradually grown and will soon be able to stand on their own.
From now on, Bruce will focus on raising Metang and Kirlia, allowing them to share the burden carried by Blaziken.
As these thoughts passed, the battlefield was ready to begin.
Suddenly, Zebstrika took a step forward and began to run at an astonishing speed, followed by a deafening thunder.
Zebstrika has instant explosive power similar to lightning, almost closing the distance with Blaziken in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, it was covered in violent lightning, and the thunder roared like the cry of a thousand birds as it charged toward Blaziken with Take Down.
"Fire Punch," Bruce said calmly, with a serene look.
After evolving from Combusken to Blaziken, it instantly mastered multiple skills, including Fire Punch.
Blaziken raised its wrist and released a flamethrower that instantly scorched the ground black.
Immediately after, it moved like a flash, its fists enveloped in blazing flames, taking the initiative to confront Zebstrika!
Boom!
Suddenly, Zebstrika collided violently with Blaziken.
Blaziken unleashed both fists, flames flashing before its eyes, delivering dozens of punches like a rainstorm, repeatedly striking Zebstrika's body.
Zebstrika also hit Blaziken in the abdomen with its head, and the lightning exploded, causing considerable damage.
Boom!
After a brief first-round clash, the two Pokemon retreated a few steps simultaneously, panting heavily, and stared each other down.
Surge frowned, looked at Blaziken with disbelief, and muttered, "It can actually stand up to Ace-level Pokemon…
"How will any of the other new students even stand a chance?
"Should we just admit defeat and give up?"
Bruce looked at Blaziken, who was holding its own against Zebstrika, and nodded slightly, showing a satisfied smile.
Evolution is undoubtedly the fastest way to improve a Pokemon's strength. After evolving into Blaziken, its combat power has surged, and it can now compete with Pokemon at the Ace level.
Of course, this is inseparable from Bruce's care as a trainer throughout the week and is closely related to the previous lightning and thunder training.
Through hard training day and night, this level of strength was achieved.
Zebstrika stood still, raising and lowering its right forehoof, its blue eyes fixed on Blaziken, and the lightning flashing in its white mane grew more violent, with a muffled thunder rumbling.
Suddenly, Zebstrika raised its head to the sky and neighed. Rising into the air, dark clouds gathered, and the white mane instantly summoned endless lightning, forming a terrifying electric column that rushed toward Blaziken through the air.
The momentum is astonishing!
Thunderbolt!
Seeing this, Bruce remained calm and commanded, "Swords Dance."
"Blaziken!"
Once the command was given, Blaziken stood in place, spinning rapidly, faster and faster until it became a blur, sending layers of airwaves.
Boom!The Thunderbolt suddenly struck Blaziken in its rapid spin, but in the next second, it seemed to encounter a barrier, rebounding, hitting the ground, and sending gravel flying.
"How is that possible!" Surge looked at this scene in horror and shouted.
What did the lightning bounce off of?
Bruce smiled slightly and explained, "This is called Counter Shield."
The Counter Shield, also known as the counter shield, is one of Ash's classic tactics and has many impressive moments.
In this way, Blaziken not only blocked the [Thunderbolt] but also boosted its own attack power.
Then Bruce took the initiative and ordered, "Blaze Kick!"
"Blaziken!"
Blaziken responded and immediately dropped to the ground, its wrists burning toward the sky. With the [Speed Boost] ability activated, its speed increased dramatically, and it charged toward Zebstrika at high speed.
Immediately afterward, hot flames erupted from both legs, and it narrowed its eyes, kicking toward Zebstrika!
Zebstrika didn't react in time and was struck with powerful force. The flames spread instantly along its white mane, and it was sent flying several meters before falling heavily to the ground.
Dust flew, and Zebstrika struggled to stand, panting heavily and letting out an angry hiss.
Its eyes shone with rage, its anger meter skyrocketed, and violent lightning was like electric snakes writhing in the air.
Immediately, electric snakes surrounded Zebstrika's body, as if covering it with a dazzling thunder armor.
It took a step forward, clad in thunder armor, and charged at Blaziken with incredible force.
The deafening thunder echoed, and with each step it took, the ground was scorched black by the violent current surrounding it.
Wild Charge!
"We'll use Flare Blitz!" Bruce saw this scene and shouted.
Flare Blitz, the ultimate fire-type move.
"Blaziken!!"
Blaziken responded with a low roar, flames erupted endlessly from its wrists and legs, and in an instant, these flames burned intensely, completely engulfing Blaziken as if they were flowing over its body.
It was filled with fighting spirit in the fire, and its momentum continued to grow.
Boom!
Flare Blitz and Wild Charge collided halfway through, creating terrifying energy between the two Pokemon. Shockwaves rippled in all directions, the air currents churned wildly, and the field of vision was obscured.
Bruce squinted, watching the intense scene in front of him.
As the Pokemon's strength gradually improves, the battle scenes have become more and more intense, and the small scuffles of the past no longer exist.
Eventually, when reaching the Elite Champion level, it's not uncommon to see mountain-shaking and sea-splitting effects with each step.
The airwaves gradually dissipated, and they could clearly see everything in front of them.
Zebstrika was covered in bruises, collapsed on the ground, eyes closed.
Blaziken stood proudly to one side, breathing heavily and with visible scars on its chest.
Either way, Blaziken wins.
With Professional-level strength, it abruptly defeated an Ace-level thunder and lightning beast.
The large amount of experience points gained from a victory at a higher level says a lot about the difficulty of this battle.
Surge stood there in disbelief for a long time, then suddenly sighed, "When it comes time for the freshman exchange competition, if you let Blaziken stand by your side, the competition committee should just hand you the championship."
This Blaziken, a classless Pokemon, is invincible.
Bruce smiled and replied, "It's still a long way to go.
It's barely at the Ace level and is only just beginning.
The reason this level is called the Ace level is precisely because it's the threshold between amateur and Ace.
Ordinary Trainers train hard, and Pokemon have some chance of reaching the Professional level, but the Ace level is different; talent and hard work are indispensable.
There is an invisible dividing line between the Professional level and the Ace level.
To become an Ace trainer in a place like Fairbay City is already considered part of the upper class of society.
Therefore, William has lamented more than once that for a Trainer with great ambitions, the Ace level is only the beginning.
The further back you go, the harder it is to improve your strength. It's not uncommon to see no progress for several years.
As these thoughts passed, Bruce took out the healing spray to tend to Blaziken.
Not long after, Zebstrika woke up, looked at Blaziken, then walked away without looking back.
As the night gradually fell, the evening wind was light and filled with desolate scenes.
If one were here alone, loneliness would be inevitable.
Bruce and Surge set up the tent, started the campfire, and the bright flames illuminated the surroundings.
One of the benefits of having fire-type Pokemon is that you don't need to bring a lighter with you when you go out.
"Metang!"
At that moment, Metang, who had been absorbing magnetic waves, finally opened its eyes and floated in front of Bruce.
Its appearance wasn't much different from before, but it emitted a constantly growing magnetic force and looked energetic and radiant.
"Metang!"
Metang called softly, then swept through the air, flying into the distance.
"This speed…"
Seeing this, Bruce was taken aback.
Compared to before, Metang's speed has significantly improved, surpassing 100 kilometers per hour.
Metang relies on the magnetic force of its body to fly. The greater the magnetic force, the faster the flight speed.
In addition, Metang's psychic level has now
improved significantly, to be verified later.
Bruce nodded in satisfaction, and when Metang returned, he had it practice psychic-type skills.
Although it's not quite as strong as him, it's already quite impressive at the Professional level.
"Even though the level hasn't increased, the combat power has improved significantly."
"Yes, tomorrow we'll try the Magnetic Tempering," Bruce thought to himself.
It's just that Metang's whole body is composed of magnets, and it's arguable that the lightning extinguishing performance can't work.
But no matter, Metang has rough skin and thick flesh, and he has some power in his body, so it's no problem to receive some rays.
Thoughts passed quickly, and after dinner, Bruce went back to check Blaziken's newly mastered skills.
His newly mastered skills are [Fire Fist][Flaming Kick][High Jump Kick][Flare Blitz].
These four are very practical skills in battle, powerful.
Combined with Blaziken's current physical condition, it is truly invincible at the Professional level.
With all kinds of thoughts in mind, Bruce fell into a deep sleep.
