Pokemon: Master of tactics

If Alex ever got the chance to get transmigrated into a world, he would choose Pokemon World. Since it is relatively safe. It is easy to earn money. Not to mention, such an adventurous and intriguing world. But when his wish somehow came true, he regretted it.

Pokemon master of tactics: Chapter 222

Alex and his Pokémon continued through this vast and giant mountain range for several hours before Alex reached the place marked on the map.

He had to cross two small mountains before reaching his destination.

Luckily, the physical strength of people in this world is much better compared to his older world. Otherwise, it would have been quite a challenging journey to cover this distance so quickly. Not to mention, the exhaustion from such a journey can be dangerous, as it may lower one's guard due to fatigue.

Alex found many Pokémon on the path and was even frequently attacked by them.

The Pokémon in this mountain area were much more aggressive than the Pokémon from other places Alex has been to.

Almost all Pokémon in this area attacked Alex after seeing his group, even if they were much weaker.

Fortunately, there were only a few Elite Pokémon among these attackers, while many had excellent potential.

He was able to catch 16 Silver Pokémon in that short time.

Alex could now understand a little why many trainers come to this area despite the high risk.

He had also removed [Everstone] from Eevee after it had gotten dim.

Alex had 1 [Scale], filled with Normal-type energy for 3 weeks by a Champion-rank Exploud of SS-rank talent, and 1 [Top-Moon Stone]. These 2 should be enough to get Eevee to the Shallow Diamond-rank.

He believed that his friendship with Eevee should now be incredibly high and that it shouldn't be a problem for Eevee to evolve into Umbreon.

Alex hoped it would happen this night itself.

Although he doesn't quite know 100% how evolution works in this world, he thinks that he should, at least, have fulfilled all the basic requirements.

Alex looked around for a good 1 v/s 1 opponent for Eevee and saw a perfect opponent only 100 meters away, hiding in the open field.

-------------------------------------

Pokémon: Graveler

LV: 42

Type: Rock/Ground

Ability: Sturdy

Gender: Male

Potential: Shallow Silver

Moves:

- Defense Curl, Tackle, Sand Attack, Bide, Rock Throw, Stealth Rock, Take Down, Self-Destruct, Rock Slide, Double-Edge

- (Innate Talent) Headbutt [E]

-----------------------------------

Alex had almost overlooked him because of how well this Graveler had camouflaged himself. But thanks to the system, he was able to spot him.

More than half of his body seems to be in the ground too, so it was not surprising that Alex couldn't recognize him without the help of the system.

Alex looked in the direction of Eevee and said, "This one is yours."

Eevee simply gave a firm nod.

Although this Pokémon can self-destruct, Alex had no worries of Eevee freezing like Blaziken at such a critical moment, reducing the danger of this move. So he wasn't afraid of him using [Self-Destruct] as a last resort.

As long as Eevee reacts quickly enough and runs away, this move should not pose a threat to Eevee's life.

Of course, there were other safety nets for the unlikely event that Eevee may not be in a condition to save herself.

Alex wondered if he should let Eevee buff herself before the fight but decided against it because he wanted to keep it a "fair fight."

He's not sure how experience and leveling up exactly function in this world. But he thinks it would probably benefit Eevee more if she wins a fight in such a manner.

Even if that is not the case, it is crucial to gain such combat experience.

Graveler had spotted Alex and his group the whole time but didn't move. He hoped that this group just wouldn't notice him and would pass by.

He had lived a long time and had already met several people who have entered these mountains with their Pokémon. Graveler has had a lot of excruciating experiences, so he prefers to avoid a fight, especially against such a strong trainer like this one.

Alex can be considered better than an average Elite trainer with his large number of Elite Pokémon.

An average Elite trainer usually only has 1 or 2 Low-Elite Pokémon with little potential.

Only a few Elite trainers manage to train a Mid-Elite Pokémon. And even fewer Elite trainers succeed in training a High-Elite Pokémon.

For most trainers, the Elite-rank is the goal, and not much growth is possible after that.

But for a few talented trainers like Alex, Elite-rank is just the beginning and not the end.

...

Graveler saw Alex's group getting closer and closer and couldn't stay still after the group was only 30 meters away.

He gave a warning cry and observed Alex's group with watchful eyes.

Alex smiled when he said, "Eevee, use Toxic."

Graveler realized that he couldn't escape this group without a fight and started preparing a move.

Eevee, who started preparing her move earlier, finished first and hit Graveler with the toxic liquid, who was unable to move since he was preparing his own move.

Alex felt this fight could go on for a while, so he had already considered a strategy that would work well in this fight.

"Eevee, use Charm."

Graveler used [Stealth Rock] and created several flying sharp stones orbiting Eevee.

This ensures that Eevee would now suffer damage if it runs around the battlefield fast.

That one move made a hit-and-run tactic almost entirely futile.

Alex was a bit impressed that this Pokémon had used such a clever move so early in this fight.

He immediately recognized what he had to prevent and what condition he needed to fulfill for his victory.

For a wild Pokémon, this is really a bit special, especially when you consider the species of Graveler generally have a low IQ, no offense.

Eevee gave a melodious cry, and invisible energy hit Graveler, who felt his body become a bit weaker.

Graveler turned furious and ran towards Eevee as he prepared [Headbutt].

"Eevee, use Work Up while slowly building up the distance."

Although Eevee can no longer run fast without suffering damage, she can still delay the time before Graveler comes into attack range.

Graveler finished his move prior to Eevee. But because he was out of range, he couldn't use his move yet.

Eevee took the chance and used [Work Up] immediately.

"Eevee," Alex said with a calm voice, "Use the same move two more times."

Thanks to [Stealth Rock], Graveler was finally able to come within attack range and immediately began to use his before-prepared move.

Eevee tried to dodge but failed and was hit by [Headbutt].

She showed an emotionless face as she suffered this attack.

Alex could tell immediately that this hit only caused her 20% of HP, despite it being an Expert-rank move and Eevee not having a particularly good Def.

'It seems that the preparation was worth it. Let's reduce the damage a little more,' Alex thought when he saw this.

"Eevee," Alex said with no change appearing on his calm face, "Just make sure he doesn't hit your head and keep using Work Up."

Graveler also noticed that the damage was not very big. But since it was still relatively good, he decided to prepare another [Headbutt].

He felt that it would only take 3 or 4 more [Headbutt] to win this fight.

As long as he doesn't pass out during this time, he should win this fight. Although he was poisoned, he felt that its effect was not very strong.

Graveler didn't think he was going to be defeated by this weak Pokémon anytime soon.
