201 Chapter 202

With Teacher Luke's live broadcast starting, the popularity of the stream instantly exceeded one million viewers and continued to rise. This surge in influence was like an undercurrent, growing stronger behind the scenes.

In Kanto's Saffron City, at the Team Rocket headquarters, a group of members hurriedly returned to their dormitories, quickly connected to the intranet, and opened Teacher Luke's live broadcast room.

"Wow, is he teaching us new tactics?"

"I heard it's Teacher Luke. Could it be someone from our Team Rocket?"

"Don't be absurd! In the previous issue, he taught how to use Growlithe. Do you think he's one of ours?"

"Yeah, well, if Teacher Luke becomes our newly appointed Top Rank Executive, that would be great!"

"Enough daydreaming! Start taking notes!"

In Unova's Castelia City, at Interpol headquarters, a female police officer in professional attire pushed open the classroom door. Inside, a group of Rookie officers sat neatly and stared at the projection screen, displaying Teacher Luke's live broadcast.

This comical scene made the man in the brown trench coat, who leaned against the wall, burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" the female chief asked coldly. "You, too, find a seat and start learning!"

The "looker" looked bewildered for a moment and reluctantly found a place to sit. When he glanced at the notes of the officer next to him, he was shocked. Ten minutes had passed, and they had already filled two pages with dense notes.

"It's too much," the officer sighed. "There's too much information... I can't keep up!"

"Teacher Luke is really thorough!"

The attention of various groups and organizations was focused on this seemingly ordinary streamer, including Team Rocket, Interpol, the Officer Jenny family, the Joy family, and even some of the big names in the Pokémon world.

Lorelei: @Blue, do you have any idea what Teacher Luke is teaching in his live broadcast?

Blue nodded, "It's likely high-speed tactics."

Only a little over a week had passed since Blue had commissioned Teacher Luke to teach tactics. In just a few days, the content on team composition and battle strategy was ready. Blue was genuinely impressed by the quality of Teacher Luke's tactics.

"The younger generation in our town is probably better suited for these tactics," Blue said, which was why he chose to collaborate with Teacher Luke.

"This is another Red-like character we're talking about, right?" Green commented.

Thinking of the determined young man with bright eyes and his Pikachu, Green couldn't help but smile.

Blue shrugged. After all, both he and Red had something special that set them apart from others.

"Teacher Luke has recently climbed into the top ten rankings," Lorelei pointed out.

Erika was surprised and asked, "Will the opponents be very strong, then?"

Since it was a virtual projection-based battle, it required a high level of strategic command from both sides. Moreover, Teacher Luke had recently defeated Caitlin, so according to the devious matchmaking system, there might be a risk of facing stronger opponents.

Wattson scratched his head and sighed, "With the top ten, it's all top teams! You guys and your dirty tactics... sigh!"

"Not necessarily," Steven chimed in with a smile. "I used to be number one in the world, and I relied solely on Metagross."

Despite his love for watching live broadcasts, Steven was a renowned cloud player. He was once the world's number one with Metagross as his ace.

"Because the game was developed by your company, Steven-san!" Gold playfully said.

Yellow of Viridian Forest: [Angrily rubbing the dog's head upstairs]

Fortunately, Yellow's timely rescue of the game, Gold avoids being banned. !

Silver chose not to comment and suggested they watch the live broadcast instead. The painting style of Teacher Luke's live broadcast was now back on track, and he was ready to dive into the details.

Teacher Luke's voice resonated from the live broadcast screen, "Hello, everyone, this is Teacher Luke."

He continued, "Today, we're going to explore a new tactic: Tailwind Squad!"

When discussing high-speed play, Teacher Luke's immediate association was with Tailwind tactics.

As for why this was the case...

The core of the Tailwind tactics was the notorious Whimsicott, known for its "annoying cotton." It seemed that Teacher Luke had quite the appetite for this strategy.

"The Tailwind tactic, as the name suggests, revolves around using Tailwind to gain a speed advantage. It's all about pushing the speed limits in our strategies."

Teacher Luke explained further, "For speed control tactics, having the right speed tier is essential. Tailwind tactics take that concept to the extreme."

"In addition to facing the Sky team, the primary feature of the Tailwind tactics is its simplicity!"

"All other strategies make abrupt turns, but this is the essence of the Tailwind Squad!"

Teacher Luke was explaining such a straightforward tactical system for the first time.

While the viewers were confused, they also seemed a bit excited.

"Luke, you're killing me!"

"Seriously, no matter what kind of battle or tactics, they always wants to see Teacher Luke acting inappropriately!"

"Please, let the system penalize Teacher Luke!"

The matchmaking screen changed.

"We are currently searching for an evenly matched opponent for you," Luke recalled this message.

When he saw the matched opponent, he had a somewhat puzzled expression.

Have there been too many consecutive victories? Why are all the opponents he's matched with lately at least Elite-level?

The character card appeared, and the opposing character had a rather fashionable attire. An orange-red headscarf, gleaming white teeth, and bronze skin exuded a sense of freedom.

It was Raihan, the Dragon Type Gym Leader from Hammerlocke in the Galar Region, known as the "Eighth Master" and the man closest to Leon.

If it weren't for the Galar Region's no Elite establishment, Raihan would surely have secured a seat.

"Teacher Luke's match doesn't look easy..."

"What's the opposite, a Dragon Type team?"

"It seems like a cloud player. Raihan is using a weather team!"

With a spring in his step, Raihan revealed a wide, shark-toothed grin and entered the battlefield, hands in his pockets. His appearance was uncannily official, as it was recreated based on Raihan's in-game videos, right down to his expressions.

Mountainous cheers erupted from the audience as they looked at Raihan's official certification and classic team configuration.

Teacher Luke's expression became rather strange.

Raihan's team consisted of Duraludon, Torkoal, Goodra, and Flygon. With these alone, he could create Sandstorm, Rainy Day, or Sunny Day.

Raihan, are you the Weather King or something?

But the opponent was also a nearly Champion-level Trainer.

In a flash, Teacher Luke's mind began racing.

"Let's analyze the lineup," Teacher Luke explained. "Considering the opponent's team, Sandstorm is highly likely."

With white light, Raihan released two Poké Balls. One held a Flygon with goggles and vibrating wings. The other contained Duraludon, gleaming with a white metallic shine.

"It's here, Teacher Luke's first prediction!"

"Even though your predictions are spot on, Teacher Luke's got quite the poker face!"

Luke smiled slightly, raising his hand.

"Go, Whimsicott, Lapras!"

Whimsicott floated lightly in the air, supported by its cotton. With the "Prankster" ability, it could set up Tailwind more quickly, while a Focus Sash improved its survival capabilities.

On the other hand, Lapras, a Water and Ice type Pokémon, caused some concern among the viewers.

While its typing had an advantage, its accuracy was a worry.

"Oh no, Lapras is about to start!"

"Teacher Luke, it's dangerous!"

The battle commenced instantly.

The man with the orange-red scarf enthusiastically stretched his arms out, interlocking his fingers, and his expression suddenly turned fierce.

"Flygon, Sandstorm!"
