Chapter 168: Verdanturf Ribbon

Whoosh~~~~~~~~

Whoosh~~~~~~~~

However, to everyones astonishment, this weak and feeble wind, though it did not harm Manectric, when it blew across the ground, it swept up layers of golden, covering the entire arena with a yellow mist.

Aowoo~~~~~~~~

As if accidentally inhaling something unpleasant, Manectrics eyes widened, groaning in pain.

Whats wrong, Manectric! the young man exclaimed in shock.

The yellow mist was Stun Spore. While evading the opponents attacks, Beautifly agilely flew around, sprinkling a large amount of Stun Spore gradually in various places.

Due to the magnetic field created by Electric Terrain, these granular pollen particles of Stun Spore went unnoticed as they were absorbed into the ground, gradually accumulating from just a few specks to forming a thin layer.

As Electric Terrain disappeared, these Stun Spores broke free from the ground, becoming active again. As the Gust move was used, instantly, the entire arena was filled with Stun Spores mist.

And Manectric, inhaling the Stun Spore, inevitably fell into Paralysis state.

Facing the incoming thread of silk, the young man loudly ordered it to dodge, but Manectric couldnt overcome the nerve and body Paralysis by relying on just its willpower, its movements slowing down.

From the beginning, Terrance never intended to engage in a direct confrontation when his opponent thought he was suppressing him using Electric Terrain. Instead, he used Electric Terrain to lay a trap with Stun Spore.

Now, Manectric had fallen into the trap, entangled by layers of Giga Drain silk threads. As energy was continuously drained away, Manectrics expression became more and more numb

Ding

All these changes happened in an instant, and most of the audience didnt even realize what had happened.

Only the three judges could clearly understand why there was such a drastic change in such a short time.

Giga Drain, and the manipulation of Stun Spores dust by airflow.

Bound by the threads, Manectric lay weakly on the ground, not only facing the absorption of energy but also the invasion of Stun Spore into its nose and mouth with the blowing air.

The young man was sweating profusely with anxiety. He tried his best to free Manectric from the trap, but he found this set of moves too despicable.

Being bound and continuously infused with Stun Spore, coupled with Giga Drain draining its stamiba watching Manectrics eyes dimming, the young man couldnt bear to see his appeal points gradually diminish as he recalled Manectric.

This the judges murmured.

the audience.

In this battle Terrance unexpectedly changed from his previous style, winning with an extremely scummy tactic.

I lost the young mans head hung low, his face flushed red. The loss was too ugly, with no chance of counterattack. The heroic attack at the beginning now seemed like hitting his own face

Terrance-senpai In the lobby, Sora observed with an odd mix of emotions at how Terrance achieved victory, and her mood after being rejected by the other party suddenly improved a little, and even felt a little relieved?

And Terrance, the source of all this, obviously didnt think much about it. Winning was enough for him.

Silently laying down a layer of Stun Spore, isnt this also a test of Pokmon coordination? As for mastering the timing of Giga Drain, controlling the binding of String Shot, and using air currents to blow in Stun Spore

All of these are Beautifly showcasing its mastery of the moves, undoubtedly a clear display of its skills. Surely, the judges must also be able to see through the intricacies of it all.

Indeed Terrances battle in this round had reshaped the perspectives of two judges regarding Terrance. They had initially thought extravagant battle styles like Electric Whirlpool, Silver Meteor Shower, and White spinning top was his forte.

However, they found themselves mistaken. Terrance excels in precise control of the battle situation, a profound understanding of opponent Pokmon and their moves, as well as his own Pokmon. His remarkable ability lies in adjusting his moves skillfully to any situation.

Just as Teacher Julian said

Whether its breeding, coordination, or command, they are all fundamental skills of a Trainer.

One should not be confined by the labels Breeder, Coordinator, or Trainer, and choose another aspect because you hate one aspect.

When you know all the three, breeding, coordination and command, thats when one can be considered an excellent Trainer.

Terrance, appearing on this stage as a Coordinator, has clearly achieved this. Understanding Electric Terrain, using its ability as a weapon, he showcased his accumulation as a Breeder.

Beautiflys meticulous control of continuously blowing Stun Spore into Manectrics body demonstrated coordination skills.

And command was integrated into every aspect of this battle, with each command and every action of Beautifly reflecting the Trainers decisions.

Not abandoning any quality a Trainer should possess, even though Terrance is currently identified as a Trainer, in the eyes of others, in the eyes of the judges, he is also an extremely outstanding Coordinator, flawless in every aspect.

No one would ridicule a Trainer for having high-level breeding skills, and no one would criticize a Coordinator having exceptionally strong Pokmon

For a Trainer or Coordinator, it is important to highlight ones focus while not neglecting any of the basic qualities of a Trainer. Only then can others truly see the shining aspects of this profession.

Clearly, Terrance did just that, which is why he quickly garnered the attention of the judges in the shortest time possible.

The winner has appeared!!!!

As Vivian shouted, the audience who had supported Terrance from the beginning cheered with enthusiasm.

Terrances performance in the battle gave them a satisfactory response. If nothing unexpected happens, the sense of anticipation and satisfaction brought by Terrances victory will likely increase their favorability towards him, leading to continuous support for Terrance.

Verdanturf Towns Pokmon Contest, Verdanturf Conference ends here. And the winner of the Verdanturf Ribbon isContestant Terrance!

Lets congratulate him with warm applause!!

Although its only a town-level Pokmon Contest, winning the first Ribbon in Hoenn made Terrance very excited.

Next, as long as he continues with the same momentum and secures the remaining four Ribbons in one go, the ticket to the Grand Festival will be in his hands.

Just like that time in Sinnohs Pokmon Contest, Terrance, a stranger who came out of nowhere, a new face in the Pokmon Contest scene, unsurprisingly, received a lot of attention from the audience who support the Pokmon Contests and Coordinators.

Whether as an admirer, a competitor, or a challenger In short, this Verdanturf Conference has thoroughly announced Terrances journey to dominate the Hoenn Pokmon Contest.
