Lucario struggled to get up. At this time, its body was covered with burn marks, and because of the burns, its body was shaking uncontrollably.
Obviously, it was in a very bad state at this time, was in great pain, and had become extremely dangerous.
After receiving two heavy blows in succession, its physical strength has been severely reduced. Fortunately, until now, its will is still very strong and it still has not given up the fight.
"Lucario, use close combat!
"
Ami clenched her fists and issued the order again. In fact, she was also very worried about Lucario's condition. She wanted to stop several times, but her Pokémon did not admit defeat, so how could she give up!
Knowing that this was Lucario's last ditch effort, Xia You naturally did not dare to be careless.
The close combat move is one of the most damaging among fighting skills. It can cause a large amount of damage in an instant. If you dare to let down your guard at this time, you will definitely suffer a big loss!
"Charizard, get out of the way!"
Charizard jumped back, distanced himself, and dodged several punches from Lucario.
When Lucario saw this, he took a deep breath, and the next second his body glowed red, as if all his blood had been burned, and he rushed towards the Charizard without hesitation!
It's a risk!
Xia You narrowed his eyes.
This is a move that uses all your strength to attack the opponent. Although you will fall into a dying state after using it, it will inflict damage to the target equal to your current state.
That is to say, the more seriously injured you are, the harder you will be beaten!
It seems that Lucario wants to exchange injuries for injuries and force Charizard into the same desperate situation, intending to die with it!
It can only be said that Fighting-type Pokémon are like this. They fight bravely and fiercely. The more seriously injured they are, the sharper their attacks are and the more they dare to trade their lives for lives.
But now that he knew its plan, Xia You naturally wouldn't let Lucario succeed.
Under his command, Charizard flew high into the sky, but facing the towering Charizard, Lucario no longer had the energy to use the waveguide to attack.
Under the double weakness, Lucario couldn't even lift his legs, so he could only raise his head slightly and look at Charizard with a look of dismay on his face!
In mid-air, the belly of the fire-breathing dragon swelled, and the flames condensed in its mouth. Then it opened its mouth, and a blazing flame spurted out, and in an instant it reached Lucario in the middle.
This time, Lucario didn't even have the strength to dodge and was directly engulfed by the flames.
The flames were burning brightly, and in the light of the fire, Lucario's body could be vaguely seen slowly falling...
After a few seconds, the flames quickly disappeared.
When the last spark burned out, Lucario fell to the ground covered in burnt water.
The referee took a step forward. Seeing that Lucario was completely unconscious, he raised the green flag and announced the result of the game.
"Lucario has lost the ability to fight. The winner of this battle is the challenger Xiayou!"
After taking Lucario back to the poke ball, Ami walked up to Xia You with a normal expression.
"The rhythm is breathtaking. I am convinced that I lost this game!"
The fire-breathing dragon landed next to Xia You. Xia You first touched its neck, then turned to look at Ami.
"Your Metagross and Lucario are also very strong. They are already among the top opponents in these gyms that I have fought against."
Xia You's words are not to comfort Ami, but Ami's two Pokémon are indeed very powerful, especially her Metagross, which can be said to be very well cultivated!
Ami smiled slightly. It was undoubtedly a very happy thing to be praised by a champion.
She reached into her pocket, took out a shiny metallic badge, and handed it to Xia You.
"This is my steel badge, please keep it."
Xia You thanked him and took the badge in his hand. He lowered his head and saw that the badge was octagonal and had a smooth gray mirror surface, just like a piece of ordinary steel polished.
Compared to other gym badges, the Steel Badge is undoubtedly extremely ordinary.
As soon as they put it into the badge collection box, Li Jia in the audience came to them.
"It was a very exciting game." She looked at Xia You and smiled softly, "Especially in the first game, I thought your Blastoise would lose."
Knowing that she was joking, Xia You followed her and joked: "Then I will disappoint you, obviously I am more skilled~"
Seeing his smug and stinking look, the two women couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly.
After chatting for a while, Xia You took the initiative to say goodbye.
Ami wanted to keep them sitting for a while, but Xia You refused.
It was obvious that she wanted to spend more time with Li Jia, but seeing Xia You's resolute attitude, she had no choice but to give up.
She looked at Li Jia and said sincerely: "Miss Li Jia, I hope that after your trip is over, you can come to my place as a guest again!"
"Don't worry." Li Jia nodded to her, "I will definitely come back to see you when I have time, and this time, I will not forget you again!"
…
After leaving the Asakusa Gym, Xia You first returned to the Pokémon Center. After treating the two Pokémon participating in the battle, he contacted Koharu and teleported Blastoise back to Sakuragi Park.
It wasn't that Xia You didn't want to stay with Blastoise for a while, but that this trip to the Silver Conference was mainly about training and training the new Pokémon.
After having lunch at the Pokémon Center, the two decided not to stop and planned to continue to the next gym city.
And then, two different routes appeared in front of them.
Or, take the water route, pass by Whirlpool Island, and reach Zhanlan City to challenge the Zhanlan Gym.
Or, go directly south, first reach Manjin City and challenge the Golden Gym, and then continue to the southeast to Huipi Town and challenge the Huipi Gym.
We have to face a choice again...
In fact, there are only these three gyms left. As long as you get three more badges, you can challenge the Silver Tournament. Therefore, no matter which direction you choose, you need to challenge all three gyms. The problem now is nothing more than the order. .
Not too lazy to think about it, Xia You simply asked Li Jia to choose the route.
Lijia hesitated for a moment, but finally chose Zhanlan City.
"Then let's go to Azure City." She looked at the blue sea in the distance and said with emotion, "I have been flying in the sky or driving on land these days. Once in a while, it's time to change the environment and relax on a boat."
"Let's take a boat ride..."
Xia You naturally had no objection and walked with her towards Qian Cong Pier, but he didn't know if it was his own imagination. He clearly felt that something had changed in Li Jia after coming out of Qian Cong Gym.
This change is hard to explain.
The most intuitive thing is that whenever the two of them look at each other, she always lowers her head and looks away, not daring to look at herself at all!
