Chapter 241

With Teacher Luke's trademark opening remarks, fans joyfully swarmed into the cafeteria(chat lobby's name), unleashing a barrage of comments.

"It's dinner time!"

"Damn, new tactics! Just looking at the title makes me full!"

Despite Teacher Luke's three grumbled deities, it was evident that the unveiling of a new strategy was well worth the anticipation.

The changes in the live room setup also caught the audience's attention.

"Thank you, Teacher Luke! Did you change your residence?" one viewer inquired.

Luke nodded and replied, "Yes, I've come to Kanto for a while, planning to teach at Celadon University."

As the chat buzzed with excitement, Togepi became a focal point in the live broadcast room.

"Oh no, Teacher Luke activated the Physical plug-in!"

Observing the new mascot, viewers were in awe. According to legend, Togepi brings good luck to others...

Didn't Teacher Luke's luck turn bad after absorbing lucky energy?

"Teacher Luke's luck is bad?!" someone exclaimed.

Luke smiled faintly. Theoretically, both Togepi and Sylveon provided a bonus of 'Blessing Buff'.

Unconvinced, Togepi continued to radiate an indignant aura, while Sylveon gracefully extended its ribbon.

"Please," Luke said firmly. "Lend me your power too, Sylveon!"

Sylveon responded with a subtle nod and elegantly coiled its ribbon.

Auntie smiles adorned the faces of the online friends, who seemed to be here solely for Teacher Luke's Pokémon.

"So cute~"

"Please don't twist around on the bed!"

After the ceremony, Luke opened the team editor and, while adding Gengar and Porygon to the team, explained, "Today, I will play the hypnosis team."

"The scientific hypnosis team relies on Sweet Scent and gravity to reduce Pokémon's dodge rate, thereby increasing Hypnosis's hit rate," he elaborated. "Although I never use Hypnosis, theoretically, it should work the same."

"???"

"I never use Hypnosis," Gold, watching the live broadcast while having dinner, choked.

Isn't this the technique Teacher Luke excels at the most?!

"('▽`〃)"

Togebo on the screen, looking somewhat angered, sported a kind smile.

While Teacher Luke continued his explanation, the viewers were gradually drawn into the new tactical concept.

"On the support side, you can choose the quicker-shooting Salazzle or have Clefairy and Porygon learn gravity to transform into the gravity hypnosis team," Luke advised.

"Explain in advance that this is an entertainment lineup; don't use it to provoke the Gym Leader!" he added with a teasing tone.

During teasing, evenly matched victims are already in place.

"en? The opposite is really cute."

Luke froze for a moment: "Wait, isn't this Alliance card a bit familiar?"

The White brimmed hat, golden long hair scattered down like waves.

Caitlin, a legal loli with an indifferent look.

"Fuck, Unova's Psychic Elite!"

"This is the third match, right?"

Last time…it seemed to beat her to tears Up?

Luke looked weird, and thought to himself:

Although it is scientific hypnosis…but to fight such an opponent, you still have to look at your face!

Matched with a rival, cheers broke out in the live broadcast room.

"Luke kills the Lord!"

"The opposing space team adds Expanding Force, can this new lineup work?"

"No way, actually it's okay," Luke reassured, his eyes gleaming.

"Go on, Gengar, Salazzle!"

The pace of this system was quite fast, and upon seeing Caitlin's two Pokémon, Luke furrowed his brows.

Metagross plus Bronzong...

The standard space team required provocation or Hypnosis to control the situation.

Luke whispered, "Gengar, use Hypnosis!"

...

In the Frontier Region and the Battle Chateau, Shauntal, the Ghost Elite, elegantly pushed up her glasses.

"When Trainer and Pokémon are connected, the charm of the bond is revealed," she recited, closing the book in her hands. Her round lenses reflected excitement.

"Caitlin, what do you think of the opening of this novel?" she asked.

"I don't know," the blonde loli Caitlin replied nonchalantly, lying on Cynthia's lap and playing with her hair. "I think it's great."

Cynthia, focused on her game console, turned her head and smiled, "You two simply aren't listening!"

Holding her glasses down, Shauntal complained, "Really...It's obviously work time, why has it turned into afternoon tea…"

Caitlin sat up again and said seriously, "A proper rest is necessary."

Cynthia, still smiling, added, "Installing a new game console to stabilize Caitlin's mood... This is also for the consideration of the Champion Alliance."

"That's right," Shauntal pondered. "To keep Caitlin in a stable situation is indeed a relatively high priority task in the Unova Champion Alliance."

But... Are you two more like taking breaks and enjoying tea?

"Well... I'm here to collect novel materials anyway. I don't have any qualifications to say you are."

Shauntal sighed, put a purple pillow on her neck, sat on the sofa, and looked up, saying:

"Speaking of which, you haven't used that console yet."

Caitlin replied, "Cynthia recommends it. There is nothing wrong with it."

"Why don't you try it first and see how it works?" Cynthia suggested with a slight smile.

Because of matching Teacher Luke, Caitlin went through two consoles in quick succession. Inviting Cynthia over this trip also included her recommendation. Otherwise, staying in the Battle Chateau for a long time without entertainment is quite boring.

"Hmm..."

Caitlin agreed gently, spreading her legs to the side, the 'duck sitting' on the Princess bed, with a faint blue light in her eyes.

The screen lit up, and the matching interface turned slowly.

"The gears of fate are turning slowly..." Shauntal remarked. "It is natural to think of this famous line."

The matching continued for nearly half an hour. Cynthia yawned lazily, glancing between the various cakes on the coffee table.

At this time, Shauntal softly exclaimed, "Teacher Luke from the Orient Region?"

"Hmm?" Cynthia instinctively lifted her head, her eyes flickering brightly.

"It seems to be a very strong opponent," Shauntal mumbled.

"Um..." The blue light in Caitlin's eyes became even more pronounced.

...

The battle has officially commenced.

The first round is unfolding.

Initially, I read Caitlin's intention of targeting Salazzle's position, strategically utilizing Metagross's 'Zen Headbutt' to swiftly eliminate Salazzle.

This instant takedown left the viewers in the live broadcast room astounded.

"Even today, Teacher Luke!"

"Wait, is this an operation that Teacher Luke can pull off?!"

In a state of bewilderment, Gengar grinned, and the blue light in its eyes hypnotized Caitlin's Bronzong!

Caitlin opened her eyes slightly.

Hypnosis without any bonus...

Is hitting it really that simple?

In the live broadcast room, a series of question marks emerged.

What does it mean for a well-constructed scientific hypnosis team to effortlessly execute it?

This is beyond impressive!

"Don't ask, the key lies in the bond with Gengar!"

"Is this Togepi's lucky blessing?"

Cynthia raised an eyebrow.

In such a scenario, Hypnosis could be a game-changer.

It's not like Teacher Luke's usual style...

"Excellent novel material!"

Shauntal's eyes sparkled as she hastily jotted down notes in her notebook.

Overcoming adversity by leveraging the bonds with Pokémon...

This is the mark of a Trainer with dreams!

What astonished the audience even more was Gengar's two consecutive successful Hypnosis attempts!

"Great!"

Teacher Luke declared with a snarl, "Hypnosis hits again!"

"???"

"Who are you? Bring Teacher Luke back!"

"After consecutive hits, how come Gengar has such a dashing stab move?!"

...

Caitlin's expression tightened.

The blue light in her eyes intensified, causing the water glass on the table to tremble.

"Relax."

Upon seeing this, Cynthia gently stroked her long hair with a smile.

"Luck can be fickle at times."

Caitlin sighed slightly and nodded silently.

...

Luke, too, was somewhat taken aback.

"Well... it's an unexpectedly smooth day."

In addition to Togepi's bonus, perhaps it's due to...

Is the affinity between Hypnosis and me quite high?

"Never mind!"

As 'The Tactician,' Luke's eyes gleamed, and his aura expanded:

"Go on, Porygon-Z, use Hyper Beam!"

The new Porygon-Z, faced with two sleeping Pokémon, was ready to unleash destruction!

"Bzz Bzz Bzz ——"

The potent current pulse transformed into a destructive white light, akin to a railgun surging forward.

In the animation effects, the ground was plowed on both sides, and rubble scattered.

In Caitlin's dilated pupils.

Hyper Beam, a MISS on the spot!

Caitlin & Teacher Luke: ???

Even the audience in the live broadcast room was left dumbfounded.

What's going on?

After two consecutive rounds of exposing himself, why did Hyper Beam miss with its usually high hit rate?

Teacher Luke coughed:

"Don't panic, this is normal..."

"Porygon-Z, continue with Hyper Beam!"

However, history had a strangely repetitive nature.

For two consecutive rounds, Hyper Beam failed again!

The atmosphere turned awkward.

Cynthia and Shauntal exchanged glances.

Shauntal: "Is he holding back?"

Cynthia: "No... it does seem like a genuine miss."

Three Hyper Beams, three consecutive misses.

The audience couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I feel at ease."

"This is the Teacher Luke we know!"

"Changing discs now!"

Luke looked bewildered.

Naked reminders could be explained by the bond with Gengar.

But three consecutive Hyper Beam misses...

How low is the probability for something like this to happen? !

"kek ke ke ke~~?" Togepi blinked.

How did he manage that?

Despite the program burst's effect, the previous advantages were wiped out.

With the fall of Porygon-Z, the field once again showcased a 1V1 situation.

Gengar, hanging on with a mere sliver of health.

And Metagross, nearly full.

This persisted until the final scene, leaving the audience somewhat teary-eyed.

If his luck wasn't bad, Teacher Luke would have claimed the world first!

"Come on, Gengar!"

"Don't give up, Teacher Luke!"

The battered Gengar rose again, its eyes reignited with a hunger for victory.

Though barely holding on with a sliver of health, Gengar refused to go down!

"Though it's burning... but I can't help but want to laugh, what should I do?"

"Gengar, hold on!"

If there's only one round, it certainly won't be enough to take down the full health Metagross.

The optimal solution is Hypnosis.

But here's the issue.

What's the hit rate of naked reminders? 60%? 50%?

For a Trainer who experienced three consecutive Hyper Beam misses and three Hydro Pump misses.

The hit rate of naked reminders might only have four digits after the decimal point.

But as long as you trust Pokémon, Pokémon will respond!

"Gengar."

Luke's eyes twinkled.

"Let's use Hypnosis!"

"jie jie~ !"

In Gengar's eyes, a dazzling blue light almost covered the entire screen.

Hypnosis hit!

"Okay!"

Teacher Luke snarled, "Continued Shadow Ball!"

"jie jie~ jie jie~ jie jie~ !!!"

Explosive shadow balls rained down on Metagross, instantly depleting its health bar.

The screen transitioned, displaying a big [WIN].

"Caitlin, defeated once again by Teacher Luke?"

After a moment of shock, the audiences suddenly snapped back to reality.

"Wait... this so-called scientific Hypnosis doesn't seem very scientific, does it?"

The entire process of naked reminders was fine!

"His Hyper Beam miss has always been possible."

"This is top-notch... truly deserving of Teacher Luke!"

...

Against the Frontier Region, Battle Chateau.

Cynthia helplessly gazed at the smoking game console.

Come on, I just bought it, and now I have to buy another one!

"Gengar and Trainer in perfect harmony."

Shauntal excitedly recorded in her notebook.

"It's truly excellent novel material..."

"I think... the consecutive misses also add a unique touch," Cynthia said with a slight smile.

"Yes, yes, this has to be documented!"

Caitlin, still sulking on the Princess bed, nodded reluctantly.

They quickly wiped away tears from the corners of their eyes while no one was looking.

This broken game, never playing it again!

...

After concluding the showdown with Caitlin.

Luke challenged Gold once again and played a few rounds.

While editing the video, he resumed the battle.

Luke rubbed his temples with a headache.

"Can't even Togepi save my bad luck?"

Fortunately.

Teacher Luke faintly noticed that he and Hypnosis were highly compatible.

Before facing Lance, it was also a match turned around by Hypnosis.

"Let Gengar get some training."

Luke touched his chin, pondering, "It's indeed a peculiar bond..."

Speaking of which.

Other people's bonds, normally it's Pikachu's Thunderbolt, or Eldest Senior Brother's Flare Blitz...

Is it really okay for me to have this kind of quality? !

After editing the video, Luke uploaded it while contemplating tomorrow's schedule.

I have to report to Trainer Academy tomorrow.

A new game plan must be prepared.

"Let's rest early."

Luke lay down on the bed, yawning:

"Gengar, Hypnosis!"

"jie jie ~ !"

Gengar chuckled, its eyes glowing with a blue light...
