c149: The Powerful Strength of 150 Blaziken! The Style of That Kick
Achan stepped forward, his eyes filled with confidence.
"Probably not," he mused. "Its realm is higher, but in terms of pure strength, it's unlikely to surpass that Lurantis."
"Lurantis, use Wood Release: Deep Forest Bloom!" Qin Yun commanded.
Lurantis, ranked 31st among the strongest individual Pokémon and 18th overall, was a peerless genius—one that had already entered the top 20 of the Rustboro rankings.
Fortunately, Grass-type moves didn't deal double damage to Electric-type Pokémon. Otherwise, Achan might have already lost.
"Come out, Blaziken!"
Achan narrowed his eyes. Qin Yun's battle strategies were always unconventional—moves and tactics he had never seen before. However, Rustboro No. 3's students remained confident in their ace.
By the ranking system's standards, Blaziken was a pseudo-S grade Pokémon, though its physical endurance and defenses were slightly lacking—especially its stamina, which didn't even reach A+.
"Qin Yun, your strength is impressive, but my power…"
[Special Ability: Burning Spirit]
"Finally stopped this move."
In Achan's mind, Lurantis being a pseudo-S rank had convinced him that it was Qin Yun's strongest Pokémon.
Achan, the undisputed No. 1 of Rustboro No. 3, carried the school's pride on his shoulders. Yet, even that power seemed insignificant compared to what he was about to face.
Qin Yun noticed the shift in the crowd's expressions—excitement mixed with trepidation. His eyes gleamed with anticipation.
"Wood Release: Wooden Warrior Technique!"
Blaziken stepped onto the battlefield, flames flickering around its body.
[Pokémon: Blaziken]
[Overall Combat Strength: 49,400]
[Type: Fire + Fighting]
[Abilities: Blaze, Speed Boost]
[Moves: Ember, Quick Attack, Peck, Agility, Flamethrower, Shave, Iron Defense, Air Cutter, Double Kick, Blaze Kick, Flare Blitz]
Its figure burned with intensity, ready for combat.

The Battle Begins!
Teacher Xiao Li, an experienced trainer, felt confident in Achan's abilities. After all, Achan had defeated opponents with superior type advantages before—through sheer battle instincts.
"Raichu, Thunderbolt!"
[Pokémon: Raichu]
[Type: Electric]
[Overall Combat Strength: 49,400]
[Moves: Nasty Plot, Thunderbolt, Thunder, Surf, Volt Switch…]
[Ability: Static (May paralyze foes on contact.)]
A blazing kick collided with the crackling Thunderbolt, sending sparks flying across the field.
"This Blaziken… is stronger than Lurantis?" someone muttered in disbelief.
"No way!" Another gasped.
Achan couldn't believe it. He was ranked 18th in Rustboro, and his actual combat ability could even reach 12th—yet, this pressure…
Electivire, his strongest Pokémon, a B-rated powerhouse at elite peak, had been eliminated in a single kick.

A Shocking Development
"Raichu, use Nasty Plot!"
The special attack boost would make Raichu far deadlier in the next strike. However, the moment Raichu focused its energy—Blaziken vanished from sight.
Speed.
Acceleration.
Achan's eyes widened as Blaziken reappeared mid-air, executing a spinning Blaze Kick that connected cleanly. Raichu skidded backward, nearly collapsing.
The Rustboro No. 3 students fell silent, watching their ace struggle.
"It's impossible… This Blaziken is faster than Raichu?!"
Blaziken cracked its knuckles, dissatisfied. These opponents were too weak.
Qin Yun simply smirked.

Rustboro No. 3's Despair
Achan's mind raced. He needed a new strategy.
"Raichu, keep your distance! Thunderbolt—full power!"
Electricity surged as a bright blue arc blasted toward Blaziken. But before the attack could land—
"Wood Release: Tree World Wall!"
A massive wooden shield erupted from the ground, absorbing the attack.
"Damn it… He's stalling for time!" Achan clenched his fist.
By now, Qin Yun's Blaziken had fully adapted to the battlefield.
"Blaziken, finish it!"
With a sudden burst of Speed Boost, Blaziken rushed forward, flames surging across its legs.
"Blaze Kick!"
The fiery impact sent Raichu flying, crashing onto the battlefield.
Raichu fainted.

The Reality of Defeat
Silence.
Achan's breath hitched. His best Pokémon had lost—without taking out even one of Qin Yun's.
"How…?"
The crowd, once filled with excitement, was now subdued, struggling to comprehend the gap in strength.
Rustboro Province had a population of 180 million, with 16 million elite trainers and only 110 Elite trainers. Just entering the top 250 was considered a guaranteed path to professionalism.
Achan had dreamed of becoming one of them.
Yet… this battle showed him just how far behind he still was.

Qin Yun's Challenge
Qin Yun stretched, a teasing grin on his face.
"Hopefully, the strongest of Rustboro No. 3 can impress me."
Achan's hands trembled. He still had one more Pokémon left. But if Blaziken was even stronger than Lurantis…
Could he really turn this battle around?
The match wasn't over yet.
"Come on, Achan," someone in the crowd cheered weakly.
"Yeah! You can still fight!"
The battle raged on, but deep inside—Achan had already begun to doubt himself.
Was there even a way to win against Qin Yun?
