"It's Bite!"
From the guest seating, several guests who had been watching since the beginning of the competition exclaimed in surprise.
"Hidden so well, only used it when facing a *Ghost-type Pokémon*. What a surprise attack."
"To deal with Misdreavus, you need to quickly decide the outcome, after all, opportunities for counterattacks like that only come once," another guest said.
"However... this Eevee's reaction speed is really amazing, even when facing elusive *Ghost-type Pokémon*, it can react quickly, it's incredible."
A newly arrived Professional Trainer guest asked curiously, "Wasn't that dodge just luck?"
"Of course not." The representative from the *Modu Trainer Association smiled and explained to these Professional Trainers* who hadn't seen the previous matches.
They emphasized Eevee's sixth sense and reaction speed.
"I see, super sixth sense and reaction speed?"
Several Professional Trainers stroked their chins, becoming even more curious about Fang Yuan and Eevee.
"Speaking of which, isn't this Fang Yuan the contestant from that interview video?"
Some Professional Trainers also recognized Fang Yuan and were quite surprised.
Because the words Fang Yuan answered in the interview video didn't sound like they came from a Rookie Trainer.
Before long, the third match of the Group E and *Group F Seed Player* battle began.
*Group E Seed Player's Onix versus Group F Seed Player Zhang Huan's Beedrill*!
"That Zhang Huan has met a strong opponent."
At this time, Fang Yuan had returned to the Players' Stand and was watching the match with Lin Jing.
Seeing that Zhang Huan, who had eliminated her, had encountered a tricky opponent, Lin Jing immediately became happy.
"Beedrill meets Onix, hmph, it seems this Zhang Huan will stop here."
"On the contrary, Onix looks like it has the advantage, but it's not that difficult to deal with," Fang Yuan couldn't help but interrupt her fantasy.
Neither he nor Eevee cared about this Onix, and Beedrill, which was more agile than Eevee and could also fly, had even less to fear.
Although this Onix had strong power and defense, its huge size also made it very slow, and Rookie Trainers couldn't overcome this weakness in a short time.
When encountering speed-type Pokémon, Onix was like a living target. They were lucky that they hadn't encountered agile Water or Grass-type Pokémon before.
"As long as Beedrill is careful and doesn't get hit by Rock Throw, the rhythm of the battle will slowly be controlled by Beedrill," Fang Yuan explained.
"Oh..."
Lin Jing nodded as if she understood.
After the battle started, it was indeed as Fang Yuan said, Beedrill adopted a kiting tactic. Although it didn't have the reaction awareness of Eevee, Beedrill slowly used Focus Energy combined with Pin Missile and Poison Sting to deplete Onix's stamina by relying on its agile flight.
"That Beedrill is so strong," Lin Jing exclaimed.
After speaking, before the next match started, she played with her *phone. After a while, Lin Jing* suddenly said, "The classmates in the group want you to show your face, many people are asking why you've become so strong, aren't you going to say something?"
What's there to say about this...
Fang Yuan shook his head, "Never mind, let's focus on preparing for the competition."
Watering the group before doing serious business... affects passion.
...
Fang Yuan watched the fourth battle with particular attention, and Lin Jing noticed Fang Yuan's expression as well.
"Are you concerned about that Xu Lan?"
"She's an apprentice from the Winter Dojo. That Snorunt's Ice-type moves are very powerful. In my opinion, whether Onix or Beedrill wins in Group E and Group F, they will most likely be eliminated by this Xu Lan in the end," Fang Yuan said.
"Xie Ming from Group A, Xu Lan from Group H, and... Xu Jing from Group L and her Abra, Xiao Wenyu from Group P and his Torkoal, their strength should be top-tier even among the Seed Players."
Xie Ming, Xu Lan, Xu Jing, and Xiao Wenyu were the Seed Players that Fang Yuan valued the most.
If Fang Yuan's judgment was correct, his main opponents next would be these people.
"Xu Lan from Group H will probably win against Zhang Huan. Xu Jing from Group L and Xiao Wenyu from Group P should also advance. I can't say who will win after those two meet, but I'm more inclined towards that Abra..." Fang Yuan said.
"This is all your analysis?" Lin Jing asked in surprise.
Fang Yuan scratched his head, "Someone on the forum analyzed it, but it's pretty much what I thought."
"Tch..."
As expected, Xu Lan from the Winter Dojo won the fourth match.
After watching the entire battle, Fang Yuan felt a chill in his heart. The purity of that Snorunt's Ice-type energy was so high. It could KO opponents with just one or two moves every time. He absolutely couldn't let Eevee get hit during the battle, or it would be terrible. However, based on the current situation, it wasn't a big threat to the extremely fast Eevee, because Snorunt's attack speed was too slow.
The situations in the other groups did not exceed Fang Yuan's expectations.
It wasn't until Xu Jing appeared during the Group K and Group L battle that Fang Yuan turned his gaze to the guest seats and paid more attention.
He looked at Lu Hai from Modu University. For a college student to be a guest at this kind of event, besides his own strength, there was also the reason for his identity. As an apprentice of the Heavenly Heart Dojo, Lu Hai was one of the few Psyshocks in the country.
And this Xu Jing, according to the revelations on the forum, was also an apprentice of the Heavenly Heart Dojo, and also a Psyshock.
So in Fang Yuan's view, this Abra was even stronger than that Mr. Mime. He vaguely had a feeling that this Xu Jing and Abra were the most dangerous of all the contestants, even if they hadn't used their full strength yet.
As for why he had this feeling, it might be because Fang Yuan was scared by Sabrina when he watched the PM anime as a child.
Psyshocks who can turn people into dolls at will are people you can't afford to offend.
However, this Xu Jing shouldn't be that powerful. After all, those Psyshocks on TV shows are considered very powerful if they can bend spoons with Psyshock.
In the final Group O and Group P battle, there were no major surprises. Even though they were both Seed Players, the opponent still couldn't withstand Xiao Wenyu's Torkoal's Fire Vortex offensive.
"Facing this Fire Vortex, I'm afraid Eevee can only protect itself with Counter Shield," Fang Yuan thought.
In less than a morning, the top eight list was released.
The Pokémon that needed to recover their stamina and heal their injuries were fully taken over by the Pokémon Doctors hired by the competition organizers. The injuries caused by this kind of rookie-level battle were not difficult for those Pokémon Doctors at all. With just one healing move from the accompanying Chansey, they could restore the Pokémon's condition to its original state without even needing medicine.
Unfortunately, Pokémon like Chansey are controlled by the state, and it is very difficult for Ordinary Trainers to get their hands on them. Otherwise, Fang Yuan would also want to catch one.
How great it would be to be self-sufficient! After the competition, Fang Yuan said goodbye to Lin Jing and hurriedly left.
He had the first match in the afternoon, and after lunch, he still needed to continue researching tactics with Eevee!
