Chapter 23 - The White Demon

"Good job, Chimchar!" Bai Yun high-fived Chimchar, saying happily.

"Alright, now that you're done, take your Pokémon for treatment," the teacher on the field reminded. Bai Yun nodded, recalled Chimchar, and waved to Cheng Tian and the others, indicating that she was going for treatment first.

Cheng Tian and Lin Lin gave an OK gesture. Su Han asked curiously, "Classmate Cheng Tian and that classmate seem to have a really good relationship."

Cheng Tian nodded, "We've known each other since we were kids." Lin Lin raised her hand to speak, "And me! The three of us have grown up together since we were little."

Cheng Tian suddenly slapped his forehead, "Oh, right, I haven't officially introduced you yet. Classmate Su Han, the person who just went on stage is my friend Bai Yun. This is also my friend, Lin Lin."

Lin Lin giggled, "Hi Su Han, my name is Lin Lin, and I'm Bai Yun's childhood sweetheart!" Just then, Bai Yun stood behind her and gave Lin Lin a playful smack on the head, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Lin Lin covered her head in protest, "It's true!" "We just grew up together since we were little." "Isn't that what childhood sweethearts are?"

Su Han looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "It seems you two really are childhood sweethearts." Hearing this, Lin Lin's eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

"Stop giggling, it's your turn," Cheng Tian reminded her.

"Ah? Is it my turn already?" Lin Lin turned to look at the teacher and heard her number being called.

"Then I'll go first, remember to cheer me on!" With that, Lin Lin left.

Cheng Tian looked at Bai Yun, who was about to sit down again, "Is the treatment that fast?" "Chimchar wasn't seriously injured, so after a quick treatment, I came back." As she spoke, Bai Yun sat down. Just then... "Ouch, what's poking me?" Bai Yun felt something poking her bottom. She stood up to look and saw a Poké Ball.

"Hmm? Is this Classmate Lin Lin's Poké Ball?" Su Han said.

"Oh no!" Bai Yun suddenly looked at Lin Lin, "That girl went on stage without her Poké Ball!"

Meanwhile, the teacher and Lin Lin's opponent looked at Lin Lin, who was standing there anxiously, feeling quite speechless.

"No, where's my Poké Ball?!" Lin Lin touched her waist and found nothing, almost crying in panic.

"Silly girl, look here!" Lin Lin looked over at the sound, only to see Bai Yun stand up and suddenly throw the Poké Ball in his hand.

Lin Lin stretched out her hand and took a long time to catch the Poké Ball. She quickly looked at the teacher, "I have my Poké Ball, Teacher, we can start now."

Just then, Cheng Tian suddenly noticed something was off. Lin Lin's hat looked very strange. "Could it be..."

"Both contestants, send out your Pokémon."

With a flash of red light, "Come out, Psyduck!" Lin Lin's opponent was also a girl, and her starter Pokémon was Psyduck, one of the three 'Water-type fools'.

"Psyduck?" Psyduck appeared, tilting its head while holding its big, yellow head.

"Come out! Pachirisu... Huh??? Where's Pachirisu?!" Lin Lin also threw her Poké Ball, but after a flash of red light, the Poké Ball was empty.

Laughter erupted on the field, and three black lines instantly appeared on the teacher's face: "Classmate, please summon your Pokémon quickly, don't waste any more time."

"Just... just a moment, Teacher..."

Just then, a small white head suddenly popped out of Lin Lin's hat, it was Pachirisu.

It had been sleeping soundly in the hat and only woke up when it heard Lin Lin call its name. Lin Lin was overjoyed, "Pachirisu, come down quickly and get ready to battle!"

"Pachi!" Pachirisu jumped out of the hat and ran to the center of the field, ready for battle.

"Then, the battle begins!"

"Psyduck, Water Gun attack!" Psyduck attacked first, spraying stream after stream of Water Gun from its beak.

"Dodge while charging!" Lin Lin commanded. Pachirisu immediately ran nimbly across the field, dodging the incoming Water Gun attacks. "Thunder Shock!"

Pachirisu fired a current of electricity towards Psyduck. "Psyduck!" Psyduck cried out in pain, and the fur where it was hit turned scorched black.

The girl gritted her teeth. Psyduck's level was very low, and its speed was very slow. Against a type-advantage move, it would lose its combat ability in just a few hits.

"Restrict its movement! Use Confusion!" Psyduck's innocent-looking eyes glowed purple. Pachirisu, who was running on the grass, suddenly felt its body halt, and then it floated into the air. "Pachi!"

Pachirisu frantically kicked its short legs. Psyduck manipulated Confusion, slamming Pachirisu towards the ground.

Lin Lin was very anxious, "Quick, use Defense Curl!" Pachirisu curled into a ball before it even landed, urgently raising its defense. But even so, it still took considerable damage.

"Press the advantage, Psyduck, continue using Confusion!"

Psyduck took advantage of Pachirisu not having recovered yet, and Confusion activated again, making Pachirisu float up once more.

"Sustained Water Gun output!"

Psyduck suddenly released Confusion, letting Pachirisu fall. At the same time, it sprayed Water Gun.

"Pachi!" Pachirisu once again fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust, as streams of Water Gun flew at it. Seeing this, the girl breathed a sigh of relief.

Pachirisu was very frail, and with levels generally not high at this stage, this should be enough to defeat it.

Just then, a figure rushed over at an extremely fast speed, colliding with Psyduck. Psyduck was knocked over, and then the figure quickly pulled away. "Psyduck!"

"What?!" The girl was surprised.

The attacking Pokémon was Pachirisu, who had used Quick Attack. At this moment, the faint green energy shield on its body dissipated.

The teacher on the field's eyes lit up. Pachirisu had used Protect the moment it was attacked, instantly nullifying the double damage from Confusion and Water Gun, and then took advantage of the opponent's relaxed state to suddenly use Quick Attack.

What a great strategy!

Lin Lin breathed a sigh of relief seeing Pachirisu was fine. "Pachirisu, Charge!"

Psyduck struggled to stand up, and the girl quickly commanded, "Use Psybeam!" Psyduck had taken a lot of damage now. If it got hit again, it was very likely to lose its combat ability directly. So she decided to gamble: as long as Psybeam could hit Pachirisu, it would cause confusion in the opponent. That would be the moment to launch a counterattack!

"Use Follow Me!" Hearing Lin Lin's command, Pachirisu extended its small hand and beckoned to Psyduck, attracting Psybeam.

"Use Protect!" The faint green energy shield appeared again, and Pachirisu blocked this attack.

Because of the 'Protect, not Protect, Protect' rule, Lin Lin first had Pachirisu use Follow Me before using Protect again, ensuring it could defend against the opponent's Psybeam.

"Use Thunder Shock now!"

"Pachi!" Pachirisu used Thunder Shock again, hitting Psyduck. This time, Psyduck lost its combat ability.

"Winner, Pachirisu!"

"Pachi!" "Great job, Pachirisu!"

Hearing its trainer praise it, Pachirisu proudly put its little hands on its hips, then took a chestnut from its big tail and started nibbling on it.

The opponent also took out a Poké Ball and recalled Psyduck. "You worked hard, Psyduck," the girl said to the Poké Ball. The Poké Ball shook slightly, as if Psyduck was responding.

"Congratulations, classmate," the girl walked over and said to Lin Lin. "Hehe, Psyduck was great too!" Lin Lin said with a giggle.

Seeing Lin Lin successfully defeat her opponent, Bai Yun finally relaxed and took a sip of her soda.

Cheng Tian nodded in satisfaction. The little guy learned Protect and Follow Me. If it focuses on training its speed in the future, it can become a true White Demon! It already has a certain prototype now...
