Chapter 132 Characteristic Swapping
"Bronze Mirror, use Safeguard! Snorlax, use Rollout!"
Hearing a sound from beside him, Wei Xin turned his head.
Seeing a Bronze Mirror Monster using Safeguard to prevent itself and its trainer from getting carsick, Snorlax hugged them both tightly, curled up in a ball, rolled past them, and landed on the other side in front of a trainer riding a Flame Horse, tearing away the wind resistance in front of him.
Because the bodies of trainers and Pokémon cannot be generalized, the force generated by acceleration and wind pressure will have an impact. In order to conserve the stamina of Pokémon, windbreakers are often placed in riding competitions to protect the main force.
The commentator's voice came from the speakers placed in the mountains: "Alright, the race officially begins. In first place is Ryoko and his Snorlax. Second place is the uncrowned king of this race, Boss Wang. Third place is the overconfident challenger who calls himself the God of Mount Tenguan."
"What's going on?" Wei Xin asked, puzzled. "I've only been on the road for two days, how come I'm already known as the 'God of Mount Kabuto'? I've never even been to Sinnoh."
Moreover, your explanation is too subjective and arbitrary. Why is he the uncrowned king, while I am just overestimating myself?
I forgot to mention the path to death.
"Maybe they're after me," said Cynthia behind Wei Xin. "I used to ride Garchomp all the time on Mount Crown."
He won too many matches and defeated too many opponents when he debuted, but as the lyrics of Milerton's song, which were scattered on the field, say, he was a stark contrast to his own success.
"I have no impression of it, only a gray feeling."
Do you remember how many bug catchers, mountain climbers, sailors, and swim trunks kids you took down on the roadside?
But the group on the other side was clearly prepared. Shirona wondered if she had dragged Wei Xin into this mess. That would be really unfair to him.
"Young Master, it seems they are holding a riding race," Rotom explained.
At this moment, Rapidash rushed in front of Milton, and the trainer on its back stretched out his hand, gave Wei Xin a thumbs up, twisted his wrist, pointed his fingertips at the ground, and gave two heavy taps.
"They're treating us like competitors, my lord. They're humiliating you."
"Miss Cynthia, shall we accept the challenge?"
"The option to run away in the face of battle is not in a champion's dictionary," Cynthia said.
She hasn't encountered anyone who dares to challenge her for many years, but she doesn't have a Pokémon that excels at running.
Garchomp and Togekiss are Flying types, while Rockruff and Glaceon are not good at running. Milotic is a Water type and is at a disadvantage on land.
Lucario is indeed fast, but compared to riding it, it would probably be more dignified to carry itself, with a bunch of people following behind taking pictures.
At this moment, all he could rely on was Milton beneath him and the young man before him.
The road was wide, and the Snorlax still chose to stand in front of Rapidash, clearly acting as a windbreaker; in other words, the opponent was an entire team.
The Pokémon she possessed were all bred for battle and wouldn't be of much use at this time, while Wei Xin's Pokémon were mostly young.
"It really is a complete disadvantage," Cynthia murmured.
It's like standing alone on a battlefield at dusk, dressed in simple clothes and rough shoes, facing thousands of soldiers clad in iron armor, brandishing your sword.
Under such circumstances, how could the weak overcome the strong and the few defeat the many? Cynthia's heart began to stir, and a feeling called anticipation arose spontaneously.
"Alright! Rotom, explain the rules of the game." Wei Xin readily accepted the challenge. Under his helmet, a smile played on his lips as he focused intently on the road ahead. He was completely absorbed, oblivious to the night and the scenery, with only the winding road stretching out before him, accompanied by the sound of engines.
He didn't want Cynthia to forget, years later, the night Wei Xin took her to lose the Pokémon riding competition.
My buddy spent the whole day trying to increase his favorability!
"Pokémon Riding Race Rules: First, you are not allowed to use damaging moves or Teleport moves against other riders, but you can use status moves. Second, the riding Pokémon cannot fly, but it can float. Third, you can use other Pokémon as support in addition to the riding Pokémon. Fourth, if the trainer leaves the Pokémon's body, or if the Pokémon becomes incapacitated, it is considered to have withdrawn from the race. Fifth, the first to cross the finish line is the champion."
"Mimi!" Wei Xin's Poké Ball opened, and Mibrim appeared beneath him.
"Mibrim? Are you planning to play support?" Wei Xin asked.
"Mimi!" Mibrim responded twice. Nighttime racing is just too exciting.
"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Cynthia to help me command Mibrim." Wei Xin handed Rotom to Cynthia. He couldn't keep all the experience to himself; he wanted to give her a sense of participation.
"Leave it to me." Cynthia checked Mibrim's stats. "Her trait is Magic Mirror?"
An interesting magic mirror that can reflect all transformation skills.
It also has skills like Harmony, Fragrant Mist, Healing Wave, Baton Pass, Affection, Help, Finger Swing, Ability Swap, and even Trick Room.
This little guy is quite high level.
On the first gentle bend, Snorlax lost control of its rolling direction and rolled to the other side of the road, disqualifying itself from the race. Rapidash hugged the other side of the mountain and accelerated through the bend. The first windbreaker lost its ability to move, and the second-to-last rider in the team began to take over the windbreaker.
"Goblin, Great Self-Destruct followed by Rollout, Babysitter Mambo, Wide Area Defense plus Healing Wish."
Golem's body glowed, fireworks bloomed on the track, and its muscular body flew into the sky with the force of the explosion, landing precisely in front of Rapidash. Thanks to the effect of Wide Guard, the trainer was not injured. The babysitter Mambo in his arms emitted a faint light, restoring Golem's strength, and then it lost consciousness.
With the full force of the rumbler's roll, the fiery horse galloped away, taking the lead.
In order to protect their main players, they even resorted to sacrificing their own Pokémon.
Wei Xin leaned down, pulling Milton's handle to its limit, and whispered in his ear, "If we surpass the Rapidash ahead, the sandwiches tonight will be doubled!"
Then, the engine shuddered violently, and amidst the roar, Millerton screamed with ecstatic joy. Sparks from the jets, mixed with blinding lightning, completely illuminated the track beside him.
It was as if the upper body was naked, the exhausted black-haired monkey had unleashed its hidden skills to launch a desperate counterattack against the enemy in front of it.
Quad sandwich, open.
"What? The Tianguanshan racing god's motorcycle lizard is starting to accelerate, but the first bend is just ahead, and he doesn't seem to have any intention of slowing down."
At the first bend, Wei Xin did not slow down at all. With the help of his proficient motorcycle driving skills, the angles of entering and exiting the bend were perfect. Millerton slightly reduced the spark size of one side of the injector, while the power of the other side suddenly increased.
The dazzling tail wing traced a perfect Z-shape on the track before surging forward.
His gaze was fixed on the burning tail of the Flaming Horse ahead, as if it were blocking his dinner.
Come on, let me see if your sandwich is developing normally.
However, without Windbreaker, the faster the speed, the greater the wind pressure. Milton could only approach Rapidash step by step. At this moment,
Other players also put in their best efforts.
A Metagross used its Alolan Vulpix's Ice-type moves to lower its body temperature, and then used its Metallic ability to successfully reach Wei Xin's left side.
The trainer was shivering from the cold because he had forgotten to wear thermal underwear.
"Mibrim, use Charm on Metagross," Cynthia commanded.
Mibrim tossed her hair and gazed adorably at Metagross, whose aggression subsided.
The fact that it cannot be immune to change-type skills clearly indicates that the opponent's characteristic is light metal.
"Metamorphoses, use the terrifying face!"
"What? Metagross used Terror Face on Motorola, Millerton's speed is going to decrease."
"Meta!" A terrifying phantom appeared on Metagross's face and crashed into Milton.
"Mibrim, use Ability Swap on Milton."
"Mimi!"
It's not your fault that you're ugly, but it's wrong of you to go out and scare people.
"It's actually a trait swap! Mibrim swapped her Magic Mirror for Milton. Milton won't be affected by transformation skills and can even reflect their effects. That's really insidious."
Due to the effect of the ability swap, Metagross gained the ability of Magic Mirror, and five or six colored prisms appeared on its body. Through the prisms, Metagross saw its own face.
I'm sorry I was born a Metagross.
The fragile glass heart beneath the steel body shattered with a deafening roar.
Just before Metagross slowed down, Cynthia lifted Mibrim towards Metagross: "Mibrim, let's switch abilities again."
"Then, give the light metal to Millerton!"
