Chương 12: , let's witness our bond!

"Click! (Ask her if she wants to have another match!)" After the interaction ended, Lu Sha saw that Cynthia was about to leave, so she quickly tugged at Gadria's skirt.

He had no idea that Cattleya had let go.

I just want to take advantage of Cynthia's youth and bully her as much as I can.

Ideally, we could help Cattleya resolve her inner conflict completely in one go.

Otherwise, once Cynthia grows up, winning won't be so easy.

even.

His chances of winning will be greatly reduced the next time they meet.

"Um?"

Cattleya was somewhat confused; what could possibly be compared?

Cynthia should have been completely defeated.

Could it be that Lu Sha hasn't given up on Cynthia yet?

But following Lu Sha's undisguised telepathic connection, her gaze naturally fell on Cynthia's waist.

There, besides the Poké Ball that contained Gible, another Poké Ball hung quietly.

An empty Poké Ball and a Poké Ball containing a Pokémon emit completely different wavelengths of super energy.

Cynthia has a Pokémon?

"You still have one Pokémon, aren't you just going to give up like that?"

Cattleya then spoke up.

Since Lu Sha wants to continue, then of course we should indulge him and let him have his fun.

As for Cynthia's feelings, that's none of her business.

This is a rare opportunity, and we must get Lu Sha to remove the enchantment from Cynthia.

Once Cynthia and her Pokémon grow up, it won't be as easy for her to suppress them as it is now.

"There is indeed one left, but the situation is a bit different."

Cynthia shook her head, the fighting spirit in her eyes fading:

"That Roseradore was raised by my family with a lot of resources to help me get used to battles. Its parents were my grandfather's main fighters, so it wasn't really raised by me personally."

"Furthermore, Roserade is level 36, making it a true veteran Pokémon."

A loss is a loss.

In competitions among peers, bringing out such an overpowered Pokémon would make even a victory seem unfair.

While Cynthia craves victory, she values the quality of that victory even more.

"Let's give it a try. I also want to know where the limits are for me and Lu Sha."

Caldelia was not deterred by the so-called level difference; instead, she extended another invitation, her eyes gleaming with eager anticipation.

"However, since we're facing a veteran opponent, to be fair, I'll use my psychic powers to assist Lu Sha. Don't worry, I won't directly attack you or your Pokémon; I'll only use them to boost Lu Sha's moves."

"How about a game?"

This was not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a plan that she and Lu Sha had discussed in the past two days.

If she's the main player, Lu Sha only needs to stand on the sidelines and cheer her on.

If Lu Sha fights alone, she is responsible for verbally interfering with the opposing trainer.

If they were to fight side-by-side, she would amplify Lu Sha's power. She would show them the power of their bond!

"Superpower amplification?"

Cynthia paused slightly, then a fierce smile, full of fighting spirit, curled at the corners of her lips:

"Alright then! Since you've put it that way, this time, I absolutely won't lose again!"

She was already resentful of her earlier defeat, and now that the other party had offered her a way out, she naturally had no reason to refuse.

Although I'm pretty sure I'll lose this game.

After all, the fact that the other party knew my trump card yet still dared to openly challenge me speaks volumes.

But so what if we lose?

In Pokémon battles, winning and losing are the norm, and she won't get discouraged just because she lost.

She never won a single match when practicing against her grandparents.

In her last battle against Professor Oak, who was using only wild Pokémon, she suffered a complete defeat.

She is never afraid of losing.

At worst, we can win it back next time.

She enjoys the battles, she enjoys the thrill of it all, that's the true essence of Pokémon battles!

Cynthia first recalled the unconscious Gible, then took the Poké Ball that had not been used.

At that moment, her entire demeanor changed abruptly.

The naivety that once belonged to a newcomer has faded away, replaced by a composure and experience gained from countless dojo battles.

"Go, Roseredo! Let's make this a battle without regrets!"

A red light flashed.

A Pokémon wearing a green cloak and with red and blue roses on its hands gracefully landed in the arena.

"Rose! (Nice to meet you!)" Roseradore performed a perfect ladylike curtsy upon her arrival.

The elegance and composure that emanated from its very core were a stark contrast to the clumsy giblet it had been before.

"Click! (Hello!)" Lu Sha waved her little hands with a smile.

His life motto has always been to use the kindest words to deliver the most ruthless blows.

"Rosredo, watch out! The opponent is very strong, go all out!"

Cynthia's fighting spirit was reignited, and her powerful trainer aura shone through at this moment.

Although Gible is her starter Pokémon, this Roserade is her true ace right now.

In response to the expectations of the League and her family, she has been leading Roseradore on numerous battles over the past few months, and the four Gym Badges are the best proof of that.

She felt unworthy of the expectations placed upon her by Sinnoh Mirai, but she would do her best in every battle!

She wants to win!

"Battle begins!"

As the silence was broken, Cynthia and Gadriya's voices rang out simultaneously.

"Roserede, Seed Machine Gun!"

This time, Cynthia held nothing back and launched a full-scale attack right from the start.

Deep down, she is still a pure offensive trainer.

Unlike the previous Gible's sluggishness, Roserade, who has fought alongside her many times, has developed a deep-rooted synergy with her trainer.

Almost the instant Cynthia spoke, it leaped high into the air, its red and blue roses on its arms in front of it.

As the command was given, countless energy seeds, gleaming with a cold light, poured out like a torrential rain, sealing off all of Lu Sha's escape routes.

The perfect synergy between the player and their Pokémon was on full display at this moment.

"Click! (Instant teleportation!)"

"Instant teleportation!"

Mind and voice overlapped; Cattleya's command and Lu Sha's thoughts resonated almost simultaneously within the same microsecond.

Without any apparent effort to build up power, Lu Sha's figure vanished from the spot without warning.

Of course, this is not true teleportation.

Using her master-level telekinesis, Gadriya grabbed Lu Sha in an instant and threw him more than ten meters away.

It moves so fast that it doesn't even leave a afterimage on the retina.

Puff puff!

The dense machine gun blasts of seeds slammed into the now empty ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

With a destructive power of at least 500, if Lu Sha had been even half a beat slower, he would probably have been riddled with holes by now.

"It's teleportation?"

Cynthia's pupils contracted sharply, and she froze for a moment.

Are you kidding me!

Can Gible use teleportation?

Was it Cattleya who performed it?

However, to teleport someone instantly, physical contact is necessary.

But just now, she was certain that Cattleya hadn't left the field.

All he saw was Lu Sha flash by and he was already in a safe position.

No, it's high-speed movement aided by telekinesis!

Since it's fast, let's use a sure-hit technique.

The analysis was completed in an instant, and Cynthia quickly changed her tactics:

"Rosredo, Magic Leaf!"

"Rose!"

Roserade spun gracefully in mid-air, and dozens of tracking leaves shimmering with eerie light appeared out of thin air, locking onto Lu Sha's aura and whistling away.

There's nowhere to avoid this move!

"Tornado!"

This time, even before Lu Sha spoke, Cattleya had already read his thoughts.

This is the tacit understanding that the man and the shark have developed over the past few days.

"Crack! Crack! Crack! (Listen to the dragon's roar!)" Lu Sha let out a strange cry, and his seemingly small body suddenly opened its mouth, spewing out a tiny vortex of air.

Just as the cyclone left the body, Cattleya's immense psychic power was injected into it like fuel, accelerating, compressing, and then exploding wildly.

call!!!

A thunderclap from nowhere!

The originally weak airflow instantly expanded into a terrifying storm that was ten meters high and five meters in radius.

The howling wind was no longer the low murmur of a young dragon, but the roar of a true dragon.

The supposedly infallible magic leaf vanished the moment it touched the storm, like scraps of paper falling into a shredder.

"Rosredo, protect!"

Seeing the terrifying tornado that showed no signs of slowing down and seemed poised to tear the ceiling off, Cynthia's expression changed drastically, and she immediately shouted.

The intensity of the tornado before us definitely exceeds the limit of a senior-level expert.

But how is that possible?

Can a giblet that has only been born for a short time really produce a tornado with that kind of power?

Can superpowers really enhance Dragon-type moves this much?

Just how well have Gadalia and Lu Sha worked together?

"A futile struggle."

Cattleya's golden hair danced wildly, and she slowly floated into the air, supported by her telekinetic powers, like a queen high above.

"Even a seasoned defender can't stop the bond between me and Lu Sha."

boom!

With Cattleya's words, which sounded like a judgment, the protective light barrier shattered and vanished into nothingness in an instant.

Roserade was swept high into the air like a withered petal, before crashing heavily to the ground.

"Rosredo, hang in there! Our bond isn't weak either!"

Cynthia clenched her fists tightly, encouraging her companion who was struggling to get up.

Roserade, being a level 36 veteran Pokémon, still managed to stand up shakily despite being severely injured, her fighting spirit undiminished.

"Click! (Quick, I'm going to use my mind hammer!)"

"It's over, the final hammer blow of willpower!"

Jia Deli and Lu Sha spoke out simultaneously again, but one was impatient and the other remained aloof.

Then, with a strange laugh, Lu Sha kicked off with his hind legs, leaping high into the air and charging towards Roseradore.

The moment he leaped into the air, Cattleya's psychic powers were recharged.

The initial velocity, which was originally only 10 m/s, instantly surged to 300 m/s with the help of telekinesis!

At that moment, Lu Sha was like a heavy cannonball fired from a gun.

His body was enveloped in almost tangible psychic power, which was both an indestructible armor and an invincible blade.

"Rosredo!"

Before Cynthia could even finish her reminder, the blue streak of light had already pierced through the entire arena.

boom!!!

Like a runaway high-speed truck crashing head-on, Roseradore didn't even have time to let out a scream before she was sent flying dozens of meters like a cannonball, landing precisely at Cynthia's feet and completely losing consciousness.

Dead silence.

Staring blankly at this scene, Cynthia felt her mind was in a mess.

She had expected to lose.

But she never expected to lose in this way.

Instant teleportation aside, her Roserade actually lost to Gible's Psychic Hammer?

Reason told her that it was a combination of telekinesis and impact, a manifestation of the opponent's bond.

But at this moment, she was completely out of her mind!

Cynthia even genuinely felt that this was the right way to play Gible.

Gible with its superpowers is so strong!

"I lost! What a fantastic match!"

After a long silence, Cynthia silently recalled Roseredo and took a deep breath:

"Sorry, I need some peace and quiet right now. Let's fight again next time."

After saying that, the future Sinnoh champion turned around and staggered away from the battlefield.

She needs to think carefully about how she can defeat the Gible with its superpowers.

"Click! (We won!)"

"We won!"

Ignoring Cynthia who had left the field, the victorious human and shark excitedly huddled together, giving each other a high five in perfect unison, before exchanging a knowing smile.

Now, you should be able to let go of your worries!

Now, you should be able to demystify her!
