I, the fighting party, became Xiaozhi's golden finger

(Sorry, I feel bad in this situation... I'm sorry to make you laugh. I'll improve it later, really.)

————

Aju frowned. If I remember correctly, the evolution of the giant crab was earlier.

Since the boy in front of him defeated the Golden Gym, why hasn't his giant crab evolved yet? Did he just capture it, or did he suppress its evolution in order to learn moves?

The next moment, he simply ignored it and waited for Xiaozhi's command.

"Big Claw, use metal claws on Arbok!"

The giant crab obeyed Xiaozhi's command and rushed towards Arbok quickly, with its claws shining with metallic light.

Aju didn't call for a stand-in directly, but commanded: "Arbok, use gastric juice."

When Arbok heard Aju's command, it quickly moved forward, opened its mouth and sprayed a sticky gastric juice at the giant crab.

Xiaozhi immediately noticed this change, and he immediately gave the order: "Big Claw, use a sideways jump to avoid the venom! Then keep using the metal claws!"

Unexpectedly, Big Claw's reaction was a little slow, and it did not dodge the attack of gastric juice in time, and was hit by the gastric juice.

The gastric juice covered Big Claw's body, but did not cause any substantial damage, but only wrapped Big Claw in a layer of sticky substance.

Soon, the gastric juice disappeared, and Big Claw felt that his body was a little strange, as if an innate power had temporarily disappeared.

[Gastric juice: Eliminate the opponent's characteristic effects by spraying gastric juice. ]

Big Claw took a solid step towards Arbok without hesitation, with its claws raised high, flashing a steel-like light.

It turned sideways and rushed straight towards Arbok, with its claws raised high, ready to exert its huge power to give a fatal blow.

This sudden counterattack made Arbok feel a little threatened, and it knew that Big Claw's claws were not a joke.

Seeing this, Aju said lightly: "Hold on."

As these words fell, a green circular barrier appeared out of thin air, tightly surrounding Arbok. This barrier seemed to be an indestructible shield, emitting powerful energy fluctuations.

It appeared just as the giant crab's attack was about to arrive, providing Arbok with additional defense, as if declaring a limit that could not be crossed no matter what.

The giant crab struck with all its strength, and its huge claws as hard as steel slammed heavily into Arbok's shield.

However, the giant crab's attack on the shield did not have any substantial effect, but only caused a slight wave, like ripples on the water.

The shield was as solid as a rock, firmly guarding Arbok, making the giant crab's attack impenetrable. It emitted a faint light, as if mocking the giant crab's useless attack.

Arbok looked unshakable, standing like a rock, maintaining a firm defensive posture against the giant crab's attack.

Xiaozhi felt a little uneasy. In the previous gym competitions, the gym leaders were mainly attacking. Now he felt very uncomfortable in this situation.

Aju was very comfortable. Seeing that the time for defense was about to end, he said, "Substitute."

These two short words made Xiaozhi have some doubts. He had never seen the move of substitute, but he still shouted his words at the same time: "Use Shell Blade!"

The big crab stretched out its claws, and several blade-like energy bodies extended from it. The claws flashed with cold light, aiming at Arbok accurately like a sharp blade.

It launched the attack without hesitation, and swung it at Arbok at lightning speed with a sharp breath!

When the big crab used the shell blade to attack, Arbok used the move of substitute, reducing its own physical strength to resist one injury.

The big crab's claws cut through the air and went straight to Arbok. However, when it chopped at Arbok, Arbok's body suddenly changed strangely.

Its body gradually became blurred and turned into a transparent clone. The shell blade could not penetrate Arbok's real body, but hit the clone, producing a slight collision sound.

Then, the clone quickly dissipated, showing that it was just a phantom, and the effect of the stand move was fully exerted. Arbok successfully used the stand move to evade the attack of the giant claw crab without suffering any damage from the opponent.

Although the order of the stand was changed, the first two moves were successfully used.

However, Aju did not continue to use the poison, but commanded: "Arbok, use the acid bomb on the giant claw crab."

After hearing the command, Arbok opened its mouth and sprayed a thick acid liquid from its mouth.

With the whistling sound and the flow of hot air, the acid liquid rushed towards the giant claw crab at a powerful speed.

Xiaozhi saw this,He quickly shouted: "Big Claw Crab, use water gun!"

Seeing the acid attack, Big Claw Crab reacted quickly, opened its mouth and sprayed water gun, trying to block the erosion of acid. However, despite the strong and dense water flow, it still could not completely resist the attack of acid.

After the acid bomb hit the body of Big Claw Crab, the body of Big Claw Crab trembled slightly, and it seemed to have suffered more serious damage.

A blue light flashed, and the special defense of Big Claw Crab dropped significantly.

Li Qingfeng nodded secretly, and he tried to guess Aju's tactics. Either prepare for the venom impact, or let the next Pokémon get rid of Big Claw Crab.

But next, it should be a spicy move, right?

Sure enough, I heard Aju whispered: "Highly toxic."

Arbok immediately began to perform a highly toxic move. It opened its mouth wide, and a stream of highly toxic purple liquid gathered in its mouth, forming drops of purple venom.

Purple venom spurted out of Arbok's mouth and shot towards the crab at a high speed. The drops of purple venom condensed into deadly droplets, drawing a lightning-like arc in the air.

It carries a strong toxic smell, and once it comes into contact, it will cause serious toxic effects to the crab!

Xiaozhi saw the venom sprayed by Arbok and hurriedly shouted to the crab: "Hurry up and block this move with the foam beam!"

The crab fired a bright foam beam from its mouth. This foam beam flashed with a faint white light and quickly spread out, blocking the venom sprayed by Arbok.

However, due to the strong power and residual effect of the venom, part of the venom still penetrated around the crab along the gap of the foam barrier.

Xiaozhi immediately noticed this situation, and he shouted nervously: "Crab, be careful of the residual venom around! Try to avoid contact, don't get poisoned!"

The crab nodded slightly and moved its body carefully, trying to avoid the venom around it.

"Arbok, use poison needles on it."

Faced with the crab blocking the poisonous foam beam, Aju calmly issued a new order. Arbok raised its snake-like body, opened its mouth, and spit out a string of sharp poison needles similar to the Senbon.

These poison needles flashed with purple light, drew arcs in the air, and went straight to the crab. They quickly shuttled through the air at a very fast speed, accurately aiming at the vital parts of the crab's body.

The crab widened its eyes and saw the flying poison needles coming towards it. It tried to dodge with all its strength.

However, these poison needles were extremely fast and shuttled through the air accurately, making it difficult for the crab to completely avoid them. Fortunately, the crab had a high physical defense, and these poison needles did not cause considerable damage to the crab.

"Crab, metal claws!"

When the overwhelming poison needles dissipated, the crab immediately clenched its huge claws and prepared to fight back. It twisted its body and quickly approached Arbok, swinging its hardened metal claws.

The giant crab swung its hardened metal claws at the speed of lightning and smashed at Arbok violently. Each heavy blow was powerful.
