Pokémon, something's wrong with my Pokémon.

And indeed, Charizard X easily broke through Charizard Y's blockade, and Dragonite charged towards Charizard Y with undiminished momentum.

What Alain didn't notice was that tiny specks of red light were beginning to gather on Charizard X's black skin.

"Charizard Y, use Substitute!"

At this distance, there was no way to mount an effective counterattack, so Lin Xi decisively chose to use a stand-in.

Ai Lan shook his head; he knew things couldn't be that simple.

"Charizard X, use Dragon Claw!"

Although she felt somewhat helpless, Ai Lan's hands moved quickly.

"Charizard Y, use Purgatory!"

Although he used Substitute to avoid Charizard X's Dragon God Dive, the distance wasn't increased. Therefore, Nangong Shi could only have Charizard Y use Blast Flare to create distance with the explosion of Purgatory.

The dragon claw slammed heavily into Charizard Y's body, and the next second, Charizard Y's explosive flames also exploded in front of the two Charizards.

The released skill no longer affected Charizard Y, dealing tons of damage to both Charizard Y and Charizard X.

"Charizard X, use Dragon Dive!"

Ai Lan quickly replied, "Although the Explosive Flame attack deals high damage, Charizard X has four times the fire resistance, and Du Yan is confident he can withstand Charizard Y's attack."

Just as Alain had predicted, Charizard X, enveloped in a ghostly blue dragon-shaped shadow, charged into the smoke.

Lin Xi secretly exhaled a breath of stale air and quickly said, "Charizard Y, let's also use Dragon God Dive!"

Two dark blue dragon god phantoms crashed heavily together.

The next moment, Charizard X was casually flung away by Charizard Y.

Alain's pupils constricted sharply; he hadn't expected his Charizard to be flung away.

"Flame Breath!" Lin Xi smiled slightly. At first, they were evenly matched, but as time went on, the distance between them widened.

After all, Lin Xi's Pokémon designs are always the best!

Charizard Y appeared extremely arrogant, its eyes blazing with fierce fighting spirit as it looked at Charizard X.

My stamina is way better than yours, you little wimp.

The jet flames were ejected very rapidly.

"Super Charizard, use Dragon Claw!" Alain seemed to particularly like the Dragon Claw skill.

The jets of flame collided with the dragon's claws, creating dazzling bursts of light.

The next second, Charizard Y's flames shattered Charizard X's claws, and the cyan-gold flames slammed heavily into Charizard X's body.

Charizard X winced in pain, trying to stop its descent, when Lin Xi issued another attack command: "Flame Vortex!"

"Hold on!"

The moment Ai Lan heard Lin Xi's command, her expression became very serious, and she reacted in the same way as Lin Xi had before.

The vortex of fire struck the emerald green light shield in front of Charizard X, creating ripples.

"Dragon God Dives"

Having failed in her first attack, Lin Xi's voice, which was as calm as could be, rang out once again.

Ai Lan's lips twitched, her eyes filled with helplessness.

He realized he was going to lose; the opponent's Charizard was slightly better caliber than his own.

Charizard X was in an awkward position where its old power had faded and new power had not yet emerged, and could only watch helplessly as Charizard Y's Dragon Ball dive slammed heavily into it.

Even Charizard X, a battle-hardened creature that had suffered countless injuries, couldn't help but roar in fury when it was hit by Dragon's Dive.

"Use... the final Dragon Pulse!" Lin Xi waved his long, slender fingers forward, looking quite spirited.

A roar erupted, and a powerful dragon pulse hurtled towards Charizard X.

As expected, the Dragon Pulse hit its mark, slamming Charizard X heavily to the ground. The immense force created a huge crater in the earth.

Alain's Charizard has been removed from Mega Evolution.

Lin Xi has a slight edge!

"My name is Lin Xi, and I look forward to playing against you again next time."

"I'm looking forward to it too!" Ai Lan made up her mind; she definitely wouldn't lose next time!

Then Ai Lan left.

"Greetings, performers! Ladies dedicated to charming and elegant performances, I, Pierre, cordially invite you to this ball hosted by me." Pierre's image appeared on the large screen above.

"A ball?" Serena looked at the screen with excitement.

“This is also to provide some relaxation time for the performers who are competing against each other on stage,” Pierre continued.

"That sounds interesting, let's join in and see!" Ma Xiu was also tempted.

Tomoko said she wasn't very interested.

"Inspectors and elves who wish to participate, please register in pairs, male and female."

"Even one man and multiple women are fine."

Pierre continued

"Um, a male-female pairing, huh? Then you and Lin Xi can sign up together," Yulijia encouraged.

Instantly, all the girls' hearts fluttered!

“It will surely be an elegant and wonderful ball, and as a special guest, Miss Carlos Elle will also be attending,” Pierre added.

"Will Miss Aier be there too? Then brother, why don't you join as well?" Yulijia turned to look at Citron and said.

"Uh...why do I have to participate too?" Citron asked Yulijia in surprise.

“That’s because we want Miss Aier to become my brother’s bride, so we need to attract Miss Aier’s attention at the ball. As long as…” Yulijia said, looking at Aier’s image on the screen.

Citron: .....

“This is none of your business,” Citron interrupted Yurija; he didn’t want to talk anymore.

Isn't being single good?

“Then let’s meet at the venue.” The screen went black after Pierre finished speaking.

Lin Xi stroked her chin. "He didn't seem to mention where he would be walking..."

Everyone:......

"Are you interested in attending the dance? It's nearby." A Miss Joey happened to be nearby and, noticing everyone's attention on the screen, guessed their thoughts.

"Thank you, in that case, I definitely can't miss this opportunity." Yulijia never expected that things would turn out so unexpectedly.

After walking along the path for a while, a castle came into view. Many trainers were already waiting outside, creating a very lively scene.

"Wow, there are so many people! In that case, brother, why don't you join us?" Yulijia looked at the crowd surrounding the gate and turned to Citron.

"No way!" Citron refused.

"Excuse me, is anyone paired with me? Ah, it's you guys." A familiar voice rang out, and everyone turned around to see Milufi, with whom they had a previous inexplicable connection.

Chapter 268 Lin Xi Dances with Queen Carlos

"Uh... is Milufi also going to the ball?" Serena asked, looking at Milufi.

"Yes, but I'm having trouble finding a dance partner right now." Mi Rufei looked at everyone, mainly at Lin Xi.

"Serena, could I borrow Lin Xi for a bit?" Mirufei pleaded, clasping her hands together.

Serena said he minded!

"It's okay, Lin Xi already has three female companions, one more won't make a difference."

Tomoko, ever the easygoing one, agreed without hesitation when she saw the pitiful-looking Mirufei.

Serena: ......

"Lin Xi, could you please be my dance partner?" Mi Rufei grabbed Lin Xi's hand and pleaded.

If you don't mind.

"Thank you, Lin Xi." Mi Rufei looked at Lin Xi and practically pressed herself against him.

"By the way, Mirufi got a few princess keys." Tomoko suddenly became annoyed as she watched this scene.

"You've already got three, right? Serena has gotten four, right? I watched the previous Couple's Tournament." Mirufi looked at Serena, a formidable rival in every sense of the word.

“That’s right!” Serena looked at her proudly, holding the Flame-Eared Fox. She was ahead of everyone else, even the bear! She was so happy!

“I haven’t given up yet, but let’s just enjoy the ball tonight.” Mirufi glanced at Serena and then silently followed Lin Xi to her side.

Inside the castle, the group arrived at the registration desk.

"Miss Mirufi, Miss Zhizi, Miss Maxiu, Miss Serena, and Mr. Lin Xi, is that the group?" the registration staff asked, looking at the group before them.
