Chương 76: There's Something Off About My Pokémon. [76]

"Battle? Real combat training?" Lu Cheng looked at Gao Minglang suspiciously. "If we can't even get it right in regular training, how will it work in a real battle? Is this old man trying to trick me?"

"Of course!" Gao Minglang said cheerfully. "It's because regular training doesn't push a Pokémon like this to its limits. A normal setting can't achieve the speed needed for Double Team. But in high-intensity battles, a Pokémon's potential gets unleashed, using its speed to pull off Double Team successfully!"

Hearing Gao Minglang's words, Lu Cheng felt a slight sense of conviction. "But where am I going to find a high-intensity battle right now?"

"Isn't there one right in front of you?" Gao Minglang puffed out his chest proudly.

"You?" Lu Cheng looked at him, bewildered. "Uncle, seriously?"

"How dare you look down on me, kid!" Gao Minglang huffed. "Go and ask around Jiang City, see if there's anyone who doesn't know the name Gao Minglang!"

Lu Cheng just assumed this middle-aged uncle was exaggerating, forcing a smile. "Uncle, let's not. I'm worried you might throw out your back."

Those words hit a sore spot. Gao Minglang's face darkened. "Kid, you don't get to decide that!"

"I've changed my mind. I'm going to teach you a lesson." He roared, "Let's have a Pokémon battle!"

The sudden surge of energy in Gao Minglang's voice made Lu Cheng pause for a moment.

"Uncle, your polo shirt's buttons just popped open."

"Oh, oh, where is it? Where did it go?" Gao Minglang bent down, searching for the button. Lu Cheng sighed, resigned. "Alright, Uncle. Just so you know, I'm pretty strong."

"Hah, young folks, always so cocky," Gao Minglang chuckled, crossing his arms. "But you know what? I like that in the young—a bit of arrogance and courage!"

"Okay." Lu Cheng sighed. "Uncle, I hope that thousand yuan wasn't a scam."

"Let's go, Grovyle!"

The spacious training room provided plenty of room for a Pokémon battle. Even though Grovyle wasn't in the best spirits, it perked up at Lu Cheng's call, gathering its energy and leaping into action.

"Don't worry, Uncle's not going to let you down," Gao Minglang said with a hearty laugh. He reached to his belt and pulled out a Great Ball, shouting, "Go, Machamp!"

It was the same Machamp that had been passing out flyers earlier. As it emerged from the flash of red light, it struck its familiar bodybuilding pose, flexing its oily muscles.

"Ah♂!" What's with that noise!?

Lu Cheng's face darkened as he opened the system's magnifying lens.

MachampNature: Mischie♂vous

Ability: Guts

Moves: Bulk Up, Dynamic Punch, Low Kick, Karate Chop

Analysis: This Machamp is quite old, but highly experienced. It specializes in Fighting-type moves, although the accuracy of Dynamic Punch is low.

What does "Mischie♂vous" even mean!?

The atmosphere suddenly felt tense. Exhaling deeply, Lu Cheng refocused, carefully observing Machamp's stats.

Only four mastered moves? A smile crept onto Lu Cheng's face. If that's the case, there's nothing to worry about!

The young trainer was entirely unaware of the true danger. Even in the games, Dynamic Punch was a move Machamp only learned at Level 55. And in the real world, older Pokémon might lose some of their move mastery, but that didn't mean they couldn't still perform those moves.

"Machamp, use Seismic Toss!" Gao Minglang's command made Lu Cheng's face turn pale.

What the—he's going straight for a finishing move!?

A hit from Seismic Toss would spell disaster for Grovyle, with its frail defenses. Machamp roared, bending its arms and grabbing its knees, flipping forward in an all-too-philosophical pose as it charged toward Grovyle.

Unstoppable Rolling Thunder! This move was terrifying. Like something out of a martial arts film, once it grabbed its target, Seismic Toss would lock down the enemy, subjecting them to both impact and friction damage. At the same time, Machamp itself would also bear a powerful backlash—a do-or-die tactic!

"Uncle, you're way too old to be pulling stunts like this! Take it easy!" Lu Cheng shouted. "Grovyle, dodge it with Quick Attack!"

Though Seismic Toss looked fierce, age had slowed Machamp, making it move with visible strain. Grovyle just barely evaded the attack using its mastered Quick Attack, narrowly escaping.

"Machamp, what the heck?" Gao Minglang cried. "You missed it!"

Machamp groaned in response, striking its signature bodybuilding pose once more.

"Ah♂!"

Lu Cheng's face twitched, while Gao Minglang burst out laughing and ordered, "Good job, now use Bulk Up!"

Bulk Up would boost Machamp's attack and defense. If left unchecked, it would become a serious threat! Machamp's bluish muscles gleamed with an oily sheen, slowly taking on a bronze hue. Lu Cheng frowned. "Grovyle, use Slash!"

"Cha-meh!"

Grovyle leaped high, bolstered by the added speed of Quick Attack, its bone sword glowing with a bright white light.

"This is exactly what I was waiting for," Gao Minglang said with a grin. "Machamp, use Reversal Throw!"

A move not listed in the move set!

Grovyle's pupils shrank as Machamp stood there, waiting, arms open as if embracing the air, a smile of kindness on its face. Then, in a flash, it grabbed Grovyle's ankle and threw it over its shoulder.

Thud—

Grovyle hit the ground hard.

"Grovyle!" Lu Cheng shouted in alarm. This was his mistake—he'd been too overconfident. Grovyle, though shaky, managed to stand up, nodding toward Lu Cheng with a determined cry. Its eyes burned with a fierce anger as it turned to face Machamp again.

"Not bad, that Grovyle of yours," Gao Minglang said, rubbing his chin. "Good temperament, well-trained!"

Though his own training had been lacking, Gao Minglang's assessment was still sharp.

"Go for it, Grovyle!" This time, Lu Cheng didn't dare underestimate his opponent, commanding carefully. "Use Mega Drain from a distance!"

With Grovyle's lightweight frame, the damage from Reversal Throw was bearable. As it quickly retreated, the blade of its bone sword glowed a verdant green.

"Meet it head-on," Gao Minglang grinned. "Use Dynamic Punch!"

Machamp roared, closing in on Grovyle as it advanced through the green energy, its four fists clenching tightly. A terrifying power gathered in those massive hands.

"Dodge it, quick!" Lu Cheng shouted.

Quick Attack!

Grovyle's rapid move made the devastating Dynamic Punch miss by a hair. The sheer force of the missed blow caused the nearby punching machine to buzz and finally break down.

That's terrifying. A drop of cold sweat trickled down Lu Cheng's forehead. How is this uncle so strong?

Gao Minglang chuckled. "It's not over yet!"

"Machamp, use Bullet Punch followed by Comet Punch!"

Two more new moves!
