Chapter 709 The Star of the Party, Makes His Debut!
Xiaoyun noticed Xiaowang's gaze, and alarm bells went off in her mind:
"Oh no! This woman is definitely thinking about something even more outrageous! We need to change the subject!"
He immediately put on a smile and said to Xiao Wang:
"Xiao Wang, you must be tired after waiting for so long, right? Why don't you go eat first?"
Ah Xun suggested, "Then I'll treat everyone to a meal, as a way to celebrate Xiao Wang winning the Grand Celebration Championship and also to celebrate our reunion!"
Xiao Wang raised an eyebrow, realizing that the two were changing the subject, but she didn't call them out on it.
"Okay~, then I won't be polite."
Dinner was eaten at the hotel restaurant.
Ah Xun waved his hand and said it was his treat, although Xiao Yun ended up paying because Ah Xun "accidentally" forgot his wallet in the room.
Xiaoyun looked at the bill, then at Axun, and had to keep smiling, thinking to herself, "Damn it, you put on such a show, and I still have to pay."
You little blondie, your conscience is absolutely wicked.
"By the way, Xiaowang, how long are you going to stay this time?"
Xiao Guang asked while taking small bites of his salad.
Xiao Wang swallowed the steak in his mouth and shook his head: "Actually, in a way, I'm here to learn from others."
"A pilgrimage to the West?" Xiao Guang tilted his head.
"Yeah, that's right."
Xiao Wang put down his knife and fork, his expression turning serious:
"Achieving the title of Top Coordinator is a milestone, but I'm still confused about what to do next."
“Master Mikkel’s level is so high that I sometimes doubt whether I can reach it.”
She looked at Xiaoguang with sincere eyes:
"So I wanted to come to Carlos to see how far you've come, Xiao Guang."
"It's not that exaggerated. I just did what I was supposed to do."
Xiao Guang put down her fork and said seriously, "And Xiao Wang, you're really amazing too. The fact that you were able to defeat a top coordinator shows that you're already very strong."
"No, you're amazing."
Xiao Wang interrupted her, his eyes burning: "We are all people who aspire to surpass Master Mikoli, but for so many years no one has been able to shake his position."
She picked up her water glass, took a sip, and continued.
"I think you're right. We can't be fixated on the Grand Contest. We need to try other styles of contests."
She paused, then laughed, "So I came. Anyway, I don't have anything else to do, so I thought I'd treat it as a trip to cultivate myself, and I can also keep you company. Isn't that great?"
"Xiao Wang..."
At this point, Xiao Guang felt it wouldn't be right not to give him a hug.
"What are you doing! What are you doing!"
Xiaoyun immediately interrupted this touching conversation between best friends, her face stern:
"It's inappropriate for people to hug and kiss during a meal."
He looked at Xiaowang with a subtle expression: "You said you wanted to travel with Xiaoguang?"
"Yeah, I've got nothing else to do anyway, so I'll just travel with you guys. What, you're not welcome?"
Xiao Wang nodded as if it were a matter of course.
Xiaoyun narrowed her eyes.
What does this woman mean? Does she want to travel with them?
Extra-high wattage light bulb?
But he couldn't say it out loud.
He cleared his throat and said in a serious tone:
"It's not that we're not welcome, it's just that we'll be staying in Carlos for a while, so we might not have much time to spend with you..."
"It's okay, I can help Hikaru train too. We used to be the best rivals, right, Hikaru?"
Xiao Wang smiled like a fox.
Hikari nodded: "Yeah! Nozomi and I used to train together a lot when we were in Sinnoh!"
"..."
Xiaoyun opened her mouth.
Oh no, the bestie alliance is formed.
Ah Xun, who was watching the excitement from the sidelines, chuckled and said, "It's good to have more people around. Look how lively this is."
Xiaoyun glared at him: "Eat your food!"
After the meal, the group went to the training ground in the backyard of the hotel.
This is the standard training ground for the battle hotel, fully equipped, where the contestants train.
The group sent out their Pokémon.
boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!
A series of white lights flashed by.
Looking at Xiaoguang's Pokémon lineup, Xiaowang couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "Guangguang, aren't the Pokémon you caught in Kalos a bit too luxurious?"
Shiny Aegislash, Shiny Gyarados, Dragon-type Poison Algae Dragon, the uniquely shaped Flowerleaf, and the mythical beast Diancie.
What an amazing configuration!
Is this a trip to catch Pokémon or to stock up on supplies?
Xiao Wang felt envious; why didn't she have that kind of luck?
Xiao Guang smiled sheepishly: "It's alright, everyone is easy to get along with."
"Boga Boga."
Bogaman stood at the front of the line, puffing out his chest.
Forget about different colors, forget about legends, Piplup is the boss!
Looking at Bogaman's appearance, Xiaowang couldn't help but laugh: "Bogaman is still the same as ever, he hasn't changed at all."
She walked up to Xiaoguang and said, "Guangguang, let's have a match. I'll be your sparring partner and help you warm up for the League Tournament."
Xiao Guang paused for a moment: "But you also just finished the grand celebration not long ago, you must be very tired too."
Xiao Wang waved her hand dismissively: "What's inappropriate about it? We're best friends! Isn't it only natural for best friends to help each other out?"
"And I also want to know just how strong you are right now!"
Xiao Guang thought about it and realized her best friend had a point:
"Well, then..."
I don't think that will work.
Xiaoyun had somehow walked up to the two of them, her face showing an expression that said, "I disagree."
Xiao Wang raised an eyebrow: "Xiao Yun, what are you doing?"
"Xiao Guang has had a long and tiring journey. He just got off the plane. How could he possibly have the energy to fight you?"
Xiaoyun spoke with righteous indignation, and even pointed at Xiaoguang: "You, as a friend, don't know how to be considerate at all. Shouldn't you let her rest first?"
Xiao Guang blinked. She was actually fine... but when she saw Xiao Yun wink at her, she obediently shut up.
Xiao Wang squinted, stared at Xiao Yun for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled:
"So that's what they were waiting for me."
Saying that Xiao Guang is tired and doesn't know how to be considerate is just a bunch of damn excuses.
This man is petty and wants revenge.
But who is Xiao Wang?
Sinnoh Grand Festival Champion! Top-tier Coordinator! What's there to be afraid of?
"You can fight. But you must use the Pokémon you caught in Kalos, not your old team."
"Especially the Lizard King."
Xiao Wang offered her opinion, knowing all too well just how monstrous Xiao Yun's Lizard King was.
If a real fight broke out, her team alone wouldn't be enough to defeat them all; they'd need divine beasts.
Oh, right, mythical beasts.
Xiao Wang added, "Even legendary Pokémon won't work!"
Tsk, have I been found out...? Xiaoyun pouted and stuffed the water-filled Poké Ball back in:
"Of course I know that. It's really low of me to use a legendary Pokémon to bully you."
Seeing that a fight between the two was inevitable, Xiao Guang could only sigh helplessly:
"Okay... then I'll be the referee."
Ah Xun pulled out some melon seeds from somewhere and sat down in the best spectator spot at the edge of the training field.
Hehe, let's fight!
The two walked to the command position, and Xiao Wang took out a Poké Ball and threw it:
"It's up to you now, Gem Starfish!"
boom!
In the white light, the gem starfish landed gracefully.
It is entirely purple, with five evenly distributed corners.
Most notably, a small Mega Stone is embedded next to the ruby in its center.
Clearly, Xiao Wang has also mastered super evolution.
"Starmie that can Mega Evolve..."
After a moment's thought, Xiaoyun immediately decided on her lineup:
"Then... I've chosen you! Greninja!"
boom!
Greninja landed gracefully, crossed its arms, and calmly gazed at its opponent with its red eyes.
"A Shiny Greninja? You two have stirred up a nest of Shiny Pokémon?"
Xiao Wang blurted it out.
What incredible luck! One or two of them are so lucky.
"What are you saying? It's all fate."
Xiaoyun shrugged, giving me an expression that said, "I was just a little lucky."
Xiao Wang pouted.
Hammer's fate, do you really think shiny Pokémon are as common as cabbages?
Xiao Guang raised both hands at the same time and announced loudly:
"The battle begins!"
"Gemstone Starfish, Power Gem!"
Xiao Wang was the first to launch an attack.
The ruby in the center of the gem starfish instantly completed its power-gathering, and five beams of light converged from each corner.
"Greninja Frog, Water Shuriken!"
Greninja flicked its hands, and several sharp shuriken made of water flew out of its hands.
Bang bang bang!
The attacks collided in mid-air, and the energy gem was precisely intercepted.
"Gemstone Starfish, spin at high speed!"
Xiao Wang immediately changed tactics.
The starfish's body began to spin rapidly, rushing towards the Greninja like a purple top, creating gusts of wind.
Xiaoyun calmly replied: "Greninja, Shadow Clone Technique."
Greninja's figure blurred, instantly splitting into more than twenty clones that filled the entire field.
The starfish's spinning attack only hit one of its clones, which turned into white smoke with a "poof".
"You can't hit it."
Xiaoyun said with a grin.
"You think that's all?"
Xiao Wang's eyes narrowed, and a sly smile curled at the corner of his lips: "100,000 Volts!"
The spinning starfish suddenly burst out with dazzling golden lightning!
Electric snakes danced wildly, covering the entire arena!
Zizizi!
Wherever the lightning passed, the clones were shattered and vanished into white smoke.
"Koh-ga!"
Greninja quickly leaped out of the lightning.
It did a somersault in the air, conjuring light blades in its hands, and cleaved away the remaining lightning with a cross slash.
"High-speed rotation is a deception; the real purpose is 100,000 volts."
Xiaoyun said slowly.
If Greninja hadn't retreated quickly, that attack would have been enough to injure it.
"Of course, there are even stronger ones."
Xiao Wang waved his right hand and shouted, "Gem Starfish, Thunder, descend!"
A dark thundercloud had appeared in the sky at some unknown time, emitting a low rumbling sound.
This move requires time to prepare, and it's clear that Xiao Wang has been planning it from the very beginning.
Boom!
The next moment, golden lightning struck down like divine punishment, the thick pillar of electricity completely engulfing the area where Greninja was located.
Xiao Wang smiled and said, "Even someone as strong as Xiao Yun can't escape the judgment of elemental advantage."
Electric-type vs. Water-type, type advantage!
The advantage lies with her!
Xiao Guang, standing on the sidelines, covered his mouth and exclaimed, "Xiao Wang's attack is so fierce, one move after another!"
Ah Xun forgot to crack the sunflower seeds in her hand.
Is Xiao Wang this strong now?
"I agree with that. No matter how strong you are, you can't escape the judgment of elemental advantage."
Xiaoyun's voice came from the lightning, her tone calm and composed, seemingly completely unconcerned about the Greninja frog being struck by thunder.
Xiao Wang's heart fluttered.
Is this person really that confident? Could it be...?
Suddenly, the Greninja frog in the lightning crackled to life and laughed.
Then it walked out of the lightning step by step, without losing a single hair.
Oh wait, frogs don't have fur.
"No, how is this possible! How can he be completely unharmed!"
Xiao Wang was so shocked he wanted to smash the bowl.
Even if you're strong, there should be a limit. That's a forbidden zone, not a pool of water. Are you trying to take a bath here?
Is this reasonable? Is this scientific?
Xiaoyun unusually offered a thoughtful introduction:
"Friendly reminder: Greninja's ability is Alteration."
"The ability to change attributes by using moves?"
"That's not surprising, that's not surprising."
Xiao Wang suddenly realized what was going on, and then silently put the rice out of the bowl.
Greninja can learn Ground-type moves, such as Mud Throw and Mud Shot.
By quickly changing your attributes the instant a lightning strikes, you can successfully avoid the attack.
"Damn, that's really a cheating and unfair trait."
Ah Xun pursed her lips, silently adding to herself:
Just like Xiaoyun, that dog.
"So you already know. Now, what's the plan? Do you still want to fight?"
Xiaoyun asked.
"Fight! Fight with unpredictable moves!"
Xiao Wang took a deep breath and placed her right hand on her chest, where a necklace inlaid with a keystone began to glow.
"Gemstone Starfish, push the limits!"
"Mega Evolution—!"
"gem!"
The ruby at the center of the gem starfish bursts with dazzling light!
The energy connection between the Key Stone and the Mega Stone caused a blue beam of light to envelop Starmie!
Within the pillar of light, the originally round five-pointed star rose from the ground, with two long, slender legs extending from its center.
At the same time, the five points of the pentagram also changed, with two of the points elongating and transforming into arm-like structures!
The central ruby became larger and brighter, resembling some kind of energy core!
Super gem starfish!
No, it doesn't look like a starfish at all now.
Long, slender legs support the main body, arms swing at the sides, and the ruby in the center sparkles like a single eye.
Its overall design resembles an alien creature that stepped out of a science fiction movie.
It's the kind of funding that's insufficient.
"Drip."
The Rotom Pokédex appeared out of nowhere, pointed at the Mega Starmie, and began its explanation:
"Super Gem Starfish"
Type: Psychic + Water
"Introduction: What you thought of as a starfish? A spinning pentagram? A real starfish, with long legs! A high-speed, high-attack star, delivering punches that land with deadly force!"
"A confirmed Ultraman in his perfect form, its significance speaks for itself, Loto!"
Ah Xun's mouth dropped open, feeling as if his eyes had been insulted:
"W-This is a starfish? Can starfish grow legs? This design looks like something an alien would wear."
Xiao Guang couldn't help but chuckle, "Pfft, I'm so sorry, but... hahaha..."
Although I had seen pictures of the Super Jewel Starfish in the encyclopedia before, I still couldn't help but laugh when I saw it in real life.
This design is so striking!
Xiaoyun's expressions were also quite interesting.
He stared at the super gem starfish for several seconds before finally managing to utter a sentence:
"That's...too fancy."
How much did this designer drink to create this drawing?
Fish Head Hot Mom, is that you?
The super gem starfish seemed quite pleased with its new form, and it even struck a pose.
Standing on one leg, with outstretched arms and tentacles, and a shimmering ruby in the center, the scene... is indescribable.
It's just like the original showing off his muscles.
