I got the Pokémon

The blizzard was getting more and more severe, with no sign of letting up.

The temperature on the battlefield continued to drop, drop, and drop again, and soon the field was covered with a layer of snow that was not too thick, but definitely not thin either.

At this time, not to mention Dara on the opposite side, even those more than ten meters away had already

Under Gengar's protection, Xiaoyao exhaled a breath of hot air, tightened the towel around her body, and took a few steps closer to Xia You, but still felt the chill.

After taking a look at Xia You's clothes, she was hesitating whether to hand him the towel, but before she could open her mouth, she saw two Articunos leaning down in the blizzard and returning to the battlefield again.

The blizzard did not stop with their return, but fortunately, because the distance was closer, the shock waves created by their fight and the air waves when their wings flapped indirectly blew away the snow that fell on the battlefield.

Although it was not their original intention, it undoubtedly allowed people to regain track of the two Articunos.

At this time, Xia You also saw Dara again.

I have to say, he is indeed a tough guy.

Even in such cold weather and without the protection of Pokémon, Dara still stood upright, as if he didn't take the blizzard seriously at all!

This also made Xia You sigh again. It turned out that the physical fitness of people in this world was indeed not comparable to that of an Earthling like him.

But then he thought again, he could now stay underwater much longer than the average person, and it seemed that he was no longer an ordinary human being.

It seems that I am also being assimilated by this world bit by bit...

My thoughts return to the playing field.

Compared to just now, Dara's Articuno undoubtedly had more wounds on its body, but Xia You's Articuno was not safe and sound either. It also had several scratches on its body, which were obviously caused by the fierce battle in the blizzard!

Although the battles between the two Pokémon mostly take place in places where people cannot see, by now everyone has realized that it is time to decide the winner.

With the command back in their hands, Xia You and Dara also gave the order to launch a fierce attack.

This also allowed Xiaoyao, who was standing beside him, to feel Xia You's fighting style more intuitively and clearly, and made her be extremely alert, carefully feeling Xia You's every move, and trying her best to put herself into Xia You's perspective.

On the other side, Dara naturally saw Xiaoyao as well.

But just as Xia You thought, he just took a quick glance and looked away without saying a word.

Of course, it is also possible that he does not have the extra energy to take care of this matter now.

He looked at his own Articuno who was already out of breath, and then at Xia You who had more energy. He knew that he was now at a disadvantage and he had to make a final fight!

Thinking of this, he shouted, "Articuno, use the freeze beam!"

There is no way to use ice-based moves to deal with Articuno, since they have the same attributes.

The Steel Wings and some other moves that he just displayed were all the other attribute moves that Articuno knew, but obviously, they did not achieve very good results. So, now he can only change the attack method to the ice type that he is best at!

Fortunately, because of the same attributes, the Articuno on the opposite side didn't seem to have any good means of attack.

This is also the reason why Dara is not too anxious even though he knows that the situation is not favorable to him.

Of course, as his physical strength declined, he also knew that victory or defeat might depend on the next thought!

Facing the freezing beam of Dara's Articuno, Xia You smiled slightly and gave the same order.

In an instant, two identical blue-green energy columns spurted out from the mouths of the two Articunos, one in front and one behind, flying towards each other carrying tremendous energy!

boom!

The two beams of ice light intersected and collided in the air, instantly generating huge amounts of energy. This energy exploded, and while the dazzling light shone, the air waves blew away all the nearby blizzards, forming a spherical snow-free zone!

Even this gust of wind blew out of the arena, passed through the trainer's command area, and blew all the way to Ash and the others in the audience seats, then spread out for a long distance before slowly weakening!

Xiaoyao screamed "Ah", her hair fluttering in the wind, and her headscarf was almost blown off. And because her body was light, she had to temporarily hide behind Xia You to avoid the strong wind.

The legendary Pokémon's power is so terrifying!

At this time, the two ice beams were still melting and fighting against each other, but in the end, Xia You's Articuno's ice beam was superior, breaking Dara's Articuno's ice beam and going back to hit it!

This also made Xiaozhi very puzzled.

"Why is it that with the same moves, Brother Xia You's Articuno wins?"

Xiaosheng and Yashida naturally didn't know how to answer him, only Xiaogang said without hesitation: "It's because of the collar."

Collar!?

Hearing his words, Xiaozhi and the others' eyes instantly fell on the collar around Articuno's neck.

"What's up with that collar? Does it do anything?"

Touching his chin, Xiao Gang said, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be made of non-melting ice. As long as you wear that kind of thing, your ice-attribute moves will be greatly improved. Therefore, in the fight just now, Mr. Xia You's Articuno won."

"What? Isn't this cheating?" Xiaozhi frowned immediately. "Wearing that kind of thing, how can it be fair? Isn't it bullying?"

"That's not the case." Xiao Gang shook his head. "Just like Farfetch's onion, Galagala's bone stick, Goli's golden belt, and the branch in the forest lizard's mouth, they are actually props, and the Pokémon League has tacitly allowed such props. As long as the props are not too exaggerated, they are within their scope of permission."

"But……"

Xiaozhi originally wanted to say that branches and golden belts would not increase the power of the moves and were more like a decoration, but then he thought, if Farfalle was without onions and Galagala was without bone sticks, their strength would also drop a lot. From this point of view, it seems to have the same effect as not melting ice.

But even so, he felt that Xia You's Articuno, which did not melt the ice, was still a bit unfair.

As if seeing through his thoughts, Yashida smiled and said, "Actually, if you think about it from another angle, Mr. Xia You was able to obtain this non-melting ice ornament because of his ability. And what's unfair about using one's ability to obtain an item?"

Seeing that Xiaozhi was about to retort, Yashida waved his hand and continued, "In the final analysis, the Pokémon battle is not about the process, but the result. Even in the Pokémon Conference, even if you are lucky enough to win, or even if your opponent gave up and you got an advantage for nothing, but in the end, winning is winning. People don't care how you win, they only remember the winner!"

These words were undoubtedly a bit profound for Xiaozhi now, but Yashida obviously didn't expect him to understand it now. He just hoped that Xiaozhi would remember that Pokémon battles were not as simple as he imagined.

At this time in the battlefield, after Dara's Articuno was hit by the freezing beam, it let out a mournful cry and fell to the ground.

Although ice-type moves will only cause half damage to ice-type Pokémon, Articuno's damage is already high, and with the bonus of not being able to melt ice, even if it is halved, the basic damage is still not to be underestimated.

When Dara's Articuno fell to the ground, before it could get up, Xia You's Articuno had already rushed to it.

With a sudden pounce, Xia You's Articuno stretched out its two sharp claws and grabbed Dara's Articuno fiercely.

I don’t know if it’s because he has fought too many ferocious legendary Pokémon, which has aroused his wildness. Although he can use all kinds of powerful moves, Xia You’s Articuno also likes this most primitive way of fighting!

Dara's Articuno obviously had never encountered such a brutal attack.

Under normal circumstances, those weaker Pokémon would have long since succumbed to its powerful ice and snow. When have they ever been bullied like this?

Only in front of this kind of Pokémon of the same level would it be so unbearable.

It felt pain from being scratched and wanted to fight back with its claws, but it was already pinned down, so how could it possibly cause any effective damage in such a hurry?

The originally beautiful feathers were torn and fell to the ground, and even the long flowing tail seemed to be blown up. Looking at the Articuno now, where was the beautiful and noble look just now?

More like a hen in distress!

Almost subconsciously, Dara's Articuno used Absolute Zero in an attempt to launch a counterattack, but at the same time as it used it, Xia You's Articuno also spread its wings and used the even more powerful Absolute Zero!

Two balls of absolute zero exploded, and everything around them froze instantly, spreading rapidly outward with the two Pokémon as the center!

"careful!"

Gengar yelled and quickly used his strength to protect Xia You and Xiao Yao, while Dara on the other side also released another Pokémon to protect himself.

Under the attack of absolute zero, everything around was frozen, and ice spikes emerged, like a huge ice flower!

This was not the end. The ice spikes continued to spread towards the audience seats and rushed in front of Xiaozhi and the others. Fortunately, Pikachu intervened and used electric current to break the ice spikes, thus preventing them from being affected.

When the absolute zero stopped spreading, the entire battlefield had changed its appearance. There were crystal clear ice crystals everywhere, and with the snowflakes falling continuously, it seemed like a world of ice and snow!

Looking at the center of the battlefield, the ice core of this huge ice flower was completely frozen, and it was impossible to see what was inside!

Just when people were puzzled, they heard the sound of ice cracking. The next second, the entire huge ice flower shattered completely, and an Articuno wearing a necklace flapped its wings and flew high into the air!

After flying high into the sky, Articuno spread its wings and let out a joyful cry towards the sky after a fierce battle, as if declaring its victory!

Looking at the ground again, I saw another Articuno lying there motionless, as if it had lost consciousness!

Huh? Has the winner been decided?

Shanwei, who had been hiding somewhere, ran over cautiously. He only lowered his head to take a look and shouted loudly, "Articuno has lost his ability to fight. The winner of this challenge is Mr. Xia You!"

Hearing Sugio's voice, Dara was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly.

Lost...

Completely lost...

After all, he could also see that Xia You's Articuno was superior to his own in terms of strength and experience. This was a difference in hard power, and there was nothing to say.

but……

It’s so cold here!

Without the faith that supported him during the battle, Dara felt the biting cold. He shivered with cold. After instructing Sugiwei to give emergency treatment to Articuno, he quickly climbed over the layers of ice spikes and ran towards Xia You.

When he came closer, Xiaoyao hurriedly handed him the towel.

After wrapping the towel around her body several times, Dara finally felt alive and let out a long sigh.

"Finally warming up..." He stamped his feet a few times, then looked up at Articuno still soaring in the sky, then looked at Xia You, and said with a wry smile, "I can't believe that you are not only as powerful as those ordinary Pokémon, but even the legendary Pokémon have such strength. I really don't know how you did it."

What else could Xia You say? He just repeated his experience-filled speech.

At this time, his Articuno also landed beside Xia You. It was 1.7 meters tall, only a head shorter than Xia You. After landing, it began to comb its feathers, as if it was not the one who had just fought.

After touching its still cold body, Xia You said no more and walked towards the audience seats with Xiaoyao and Dara.

On the way back, Xia You also looked at Xiao Yao and asked in a low voice: "How is it, did you feel anything?"

Xiaoyao:......

Xiaoyao didn't know how to answer Xia You.

What to say?

You said you didn't even see how the fight went on?

Even when Xia You gave orders, they were very concise, but his Articuno could accurately understand his instructions?

Compared to the battles I usually encounter, these are completely two different levels!

Seeing her embarrassment, Xia You didn't care and instead touched her head.

But the moment his hand was placed on her head, she suddenly reacted.

Oh no, I was used to touching her before, and just now I actually mistook her for Xiaoxia!

It really is a habit that becomes nature...

Xia You calmly put down his hand and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't feel anything for now. After all, this kind of thing takes time to accumulate. When you spend more time together in the future, you will slowly gain some insights."

"I...I understand..."

Although Xia You spoke very naturally, Xiaoyao still lowered her head shyly.

It's not her fault. Xia You just put his hand on her head. Even though it was only for a moment and he took it away immediately, her face still turned red...
