After school, homeroom teacher Old Zhang gave Jiang Chen a copy of Imperial Capital Spirit Academy's data.
The five participants from Imperial Capital Spirit Academy for the friendly exchange competition had already been selected. Upon receiving the data, homeroom teacher Old Zhang immediately distributed a copy to each participant.
"This data is not complete, so don't entirely rely on it to understand your opponents."
Old Zhang reminded Jiang Chen.
It was even possible that the collected data was false intelligence.
"I understand. All's fair in love and war."
This data could only be used as a general reference.
After returning home, Jiang Chen opened the system's mission panel to check for new missions.
[Mission: Defeat a Quasi-Elite Level Nine Pokémon. Mission Reward: Moon Stone x1, Gardevoirite x1, Points +50,000]
"A Moon Stone, a Gardevoirite, and fifty thousand points. This reward is good."
Jiang Chen's eyes lit up. The key was that he already had the strength to complete this mission.
Moon Stones were essential for Mega Evolution, and the Gardevoirite would allow Gardevoir to Mega Evolve.
Even the fifty thousand points were very important to Jiang Chen.
"Dragonite, take me to the back mountain."
He released Dragonite, then Jiang Chen leaped onto Dragonite's back. Dragonite carried Jiang Chen to the back mountain.
Quasi-Elite Level Nine Pokémon were hard to find in the wild, but easy to find in the back mountain.
The back mountain was where Jiang Chen's parents had previously caught their Pokémon.
They didn't have Jiang Chen's Investigation Eye, and of course, they inevitably caught some Pokémon with weaker talents. These Pokémon could not participate in high-level battles now and could only live in the back mountain.
"Which one should I choose? Charizard it is."
He looked at Charizard, and Jiang Chen commanded Dragonite to fly over.
This Charizard was also Jiang Chen's father Jiang Yuan's Pokémon, his former starter Pokémon.
The current main Charizard was actually one Jiang Yuan caught later.
"Charizard, how about we have a battle by the sea?"
Jiang Chen shouted towards Charizard.
He was also very familiar with this Charizard because they had sparred more than once or twice.
Charizard spewed fire from its mouth, then flew up and headed towards the sea.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen knew Charizard had agreed. He chose this Charizard as his opponent because Jiang Chen knew this Charizard was very aggressive.
"Let's go, Dragonite, we'll go too."
The seaside was very close from here. In fact, Jiang Chen's home itself was near the seaside.
They didn't battle in the back mountain because the damage caused by Quasi-Elite level Pokémon was considerable, and battling in the back mountain could easily damage the environment there.
Jiang Chen jumped off Dragonite's back, then released all his Pokémon, letting them watch and experience powerful strength.
For the currently weak Ralts and others, the power of a Quasi-Elite Level Nine was indeed very strong.
"Dragonite, use Aqua Tail to repel Charizard, then use Dragon Dance."
As soon as Charizard landed, it attacked, its claws gleaming with cold light as it lunged at Dragonite. It was undoubtedly using Dragon Claw.
Dragonite's tail whipped, striking Charizard like a raging wave.
A hint of pain flashed in Charizard's eyes. Water-type moves were effective against it.
The moment it repelled Charizard, Dragonite used Dragon Dance, boosting its speed and attack.
Using moves like Dragon Dance and Swords Dance required seizing opportunities, otherwise, they could be interrupted, and one would take hits for nothing.
This time, taking advantage of Charizard being repelled and unable to counterattack, Jiang Chen had Dragonite use Dragon Dance.
Flames surged, and Flamethrower turned the sand on the ground into glass.
Dragonite's body quickly ascended, dodging the Flamethrower attack. Seeing Dragonite fly up, Charizard also took to the air.
With Dragon Dance boosting its speed, coupled with Dragonite's already fast flight speed, it continuously evaded Charizard's attacks.
"Facing the attacks, Dragonite's evasion has become more proficient."
Jiang Chen looked up, not issuing any further commands.
The clash of two Quasi-Elite Pokémon made the Pokémon around Jiang Chen widen their eyes.
The continuously evading Dragonite also counterattacked, turning its head and launching a Dragon Pulse at Charizard.
This Charizard was also very strong and had rich battle experience. In previous battles with it, Jiang Chen had suffered quite a bit.
This was Jiang Chen's father's main Pokémon in the early stages, only later was it phased out.
"Turn around and use Dragon Rush."
Seeing Dragonite fly to a high position, Jiang Chen shouted loudly.
Unsure if Dragonite could hear, Jiang Chen used his Aura to transmit the command to Dragonite again.
Dragonite turned around in the air, using Dragon Rush to charge down at Charizard from above.
At this speed, Charizard definitely couldn't avoid it. Unsure if Charizard had already realized it couldn't avoid it, it didn't dodge.
It launched a Blast Burn at Dragonite.
However, it ultimately couldn't withstand Dragonite's charge. It broke through the Blast Burn and collided with Charizard.
Charizard shrieked, then fell from the sky.
Boom!
A huge crater was smashed into the beach.
"One more Dragon Pulse," Jiang Chen shouted to Dragonite.
He had experience battling this Charizard and knew how tough it was. Several times before, he had been on the verge of winning, only to relax his guard.
As a result, Charizard, which he thought had lost its ability to battle, suddenly stood up and turned the tide.
With another roar, the beach exploded, and Charizard was severely wounded again.
"Roar~!"
With a roar, flames shot into the sky.
"Still not out of battle, so strong."
This Charizard had been tempered to its limit. It could be said that if it weren't for the limitations of its talent, this Charizard would definitely have reached the Elite level.
Unfortunately, talent limited a Pokémon's entire life.
Charizard charged out, using its Fire-type ultimate move, Flare Blitz.
Flames covered Charizard's entire body. At this moment, it was like a fireball charging towards Dragonite.
"So fast."
In Jiang Chen's eyes, it flashed by like a meteor.
He quickly used his Aura to command Dragonite to use Giga Impact.
Dodging was not realistic at this moment; only a head-on clash would do.
Two Quasi-Elite Level Nine Pokémon, each using their ultimate moves, collided. Jiang Chen dared not say who would win or lose.
