Pokémon Court-Chapter 259: High-level Area Rookie

Due to the amplification from four rounds of Dragon Dance, Altaria’s strength had significantly increased. No matter what kind of opponent it faced, it can take down almost any opponent with a single swipe. In fact, Terrance didn’t dare to let Altaria use its full strength against smaller Pokémon; even a Pound on the ground was enough to knock them out from the shockwave alone.

Bang!!

A Nidoking was hit by the energy of Altaria’s Dragon Claw and was sent flying. Its massive body slid across the arena from one end to the other, looking quite miserable.

“No way…”

Seeing Altaria’s overwhelming power, most people fell silent. How could they even fight against that?

“Even an Elite Four’s Pokémon wouldn’t have this much explosive power…”

Seeing Altaria’s state, someone murmured.

However, as soon as others heard this, they immediately refuted, “It’s different. Dragon Dance is a move that enhances your strength by squeezing out hidden potential. Over time, Altaria will return to its original state.”

“And this kind of enhancement isn’t limitless; it also depends on the Pokémon’s physique or, in other words, how much potential it has to make the most of Dragon Dance.”

“I estimate that four times is the limit for Altaria. Look at it, its speed and destructive power have increased to such a level—how could there not be side effects?”

“That’s true. I wonder how long Altaria can persist…”

While the crowd was discussing, Terrance and Altaria swept through every opponent in front of them, leaving the onlookers in awe.

“Can you still go on?”

Terrance asked Altaria, and after receiving a response, he smiled faintly. They had previously tested the Dragon Dance, and with Altaria’s physique, it could withstand six times at most. Although it was quite challenging, it could at least sustain it for a period during battle.

After that, its whole body would ache and become weak, and its energy flow would slow down. Even with the best care at the Pokémon Center, it would still need a full day to recover.

But this price was worth it. After squeezing out its potential through Dragon Dance, Altaria would gain extremely powerful strength for a period of time. Of course, in battle, the opportunity to strengthen oneself is rare, let alone doing it six times. When it’s necessary, there isn’t an opportunity; when there is an opportunity, it’s often not needed.

“The opponents aren’t strong.”

Terrance thought to himself. The opponents in this round were still not much different from before. There hadn’t been any particularly troublesome opponent. Although there were many Pokémon, Altaria almost instantly knocked them out in each battle, which even dampened the spirit of the Trainers who were scheduled to battle next. freēwēbnovel.com

“Maybe at this pace, Altaria can keep its current state and win all the way through.”

The more times Dragon Dance is used, the greater the burden on the body, and the less time the Pokémon can endure in battle.

After two uses of Dragon Dance, it should be the most stable state Altaria can achieve at the moment, where it can perfectly maximize all its abilities without putting too much strain on its body afterward.

But after four uses, Altaria would have to suffer to some extent after the battle, which is unavoidable.

Boom!

No one knew how many times Altaria had struck the ground. The staff member acting as the referee’s eyelids kept twitching, afraid that Altaria might tear the place down.

Even though the material used to build the arena was strong, it couldn’t withstand such violent attacks.

“Damn it!”

After losing, Terrance’s sixth opponent stomped their foot in anger.

Facing this situation, the audience was already used to it, quietly waiting for the last Trainer to step onto the arena.

This was also Terrance’s last battle in the Beginner Area. Winning this one—or rather, it could be said that this battle was already won.

With four times Dragon Dance boosted Altaria and two other Pokémon that hadn’t expended much stamina, it was hard to imagine how Terrance could possibly lose in the final round, given his achievement of six round consecutive wins.

“That went smoothly.” Terrance checked the time. This was his fastest challenge yet, with each battle averaging less than three minutes.

Except for the first match, the remaining five combined took less than 20 minutes. It seems that this strategy is worth developing, as it’s particularly effective given the unique format of the Battle Tower.

As time passed, on the arena, Altaria also delivered a perfect performance in the final match. When all three of the opponent’s Pokémon were completely knocked out, Terrance secured the final victory.

“That’s it—” the referee announced. “This round of battles is over.”

This statement had another meaning: Terrance had earned the qualification to advance to the High-level Area. This was already Terrance’s seventh round in the Battle Tower, marking his thirty-fifth consecutive win!

The Battle Tower periodically sees Trainers advance to the High-level Area, so Terrance’s advancement wasn’t entirely unexpected, but he still made an impression on many.

After all, that final 1vs21 match left a lasting impact on many people.

“I remember that this Terrance battles quite frequently. He’ll probably keep battling after advancing to the High-level Area, right?” one spectator speculated.

“Maybe… But it won’t be as easy as it is now. AI could randomly match you with a Trainer from the High-level Area, who must have the battle records to back up their strength. Plus, High-level Area’s Trainers often try to block each other. Achieving consecutive wins won’t be easy…many get stuck just shy of 49 consecutive wins, unable to break past 50.”

The next day.

Terrance didn’t appear in the High-level Area, which didn’t surprise some people. After all, he had just finished battling, so it was normal to take a few days off.

Over the past half month, two people had advanced to the High-level Area. Besides Terrance, there was another person, both considered rookies in the High-level Area.

In the High-level Area, most newly promoted Trainers are stuck at their first or second round winning streaks, usually between 36 and 49 wins. It’s rare for anyone to make it past 50 consecutive wins…

The only ones who can maintain such a winning streak are seed players cultivated by big clubs, champions of League Conferences, Gym successors, or particularly talented Trainers.

For someone from an ordinary family who has been traveling for two or three years, just making it to the High-level Area is already a blessing and a rare achievement, let alone maintaining a winning streak there.

Even with the strength to do so, the Battle Tower won’t just let it happen smoothly. It’s easy for them to secretly implement measures to match a Trainer against tough opponents. So unless their strength is solid, most High-level Area’s Trainers aim to reach 50 consecutive wins.

Despite this, Trainers still flock to the Battle Tower. After all, the owner of the Battle Tower is Scott. If you’re noticed and recruited by him, joining the Frontier Club or any of his Trainer-related facilities or companies would be a giant leap forward!
