Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, the form of the Slow Hippo changed again, and this time it can be seen from the outline that it is similar to the human form, just like the Flame Chicken!
The white light dissipated, and the Slow Hippo that appeared in the original place was a boxer...
Although it still had that cute face and cute eyes, its body proportions were closer to humans, and the four became more slender.
The snail shell on the tail disappeared, and on the back of each hand, there was a huge shell covering it, as if it was a "boxing glove".
If it was "Bond Slow Hippo x", then now it should be "Bond Slow Hippo y"!
Countless cameras came to shoot crazily, and some reporters couldn't wait. For the first-hand news, they left their colleagues to shoot on the spot and ran out of the venue, as if they were ready to publish the article before the result of the game came out...
Two bond evolution forms!
This is indeed a major discovery in the history of Pokémon!
So far, many cases of normal branch evolution of Pokémon have been discovered, among which Eevee is the representative, and there are also several cases of branch evolution in super evolution.
For example, Charizard has two types of evolution stones that can match Charizard, and carrying different evolution stones can evolve into different appearances, that is, "Mega Charizard x" and "Mega Charizard y"...
However, in the rarer "Bond Evolution", there has never been an "xy branch" so far. Now, the second "Bond Evolution" of Slow Hippo can be said to have made history.
As an opponent, Shenghuo was also stunned for a while, but he finally reacted and focused on the battle again!
The sudden announcement that "Bond Evolution" also has "xy branches" is indeed something that all trainers will pay attention to, but Shenghuo, who is closest to this matter, must give priority to things on the field.
"If it is the same as the 'xy branch' of Mega Evolution, the combat power of 'Bond Slow Hippo y' should be the same as that of 'Bond Slow Hippo x', right? Don't be afraid, Blaziken... Use 'Double Kick' plus 'Flame Kick'!"
Another combination skill!
From the perspective of trainer ability, Shenghuo is no weaker than some of the lowest-level official gym owners, and also better than Guan Liyuan... To be precise, Guan Liyuan is still a "Summoner from another world" rather than a "Pokémon trainer".
I saw "Super Blaziken" suddenly jumped up and launched a double flame kick from top to bottom at Hippopotamus Y...
"Flame Kick" is a physical attack skill of the fire system. As the name suggests, the power of the flame is attached to the feet, and then combined with the body's strength to kick the opponent.
And "Double Kick" is a fighting skill, using the power of the fighting system to further strengthen the body's strength, kicking the enemy twice...
Now it seems that Super Blaziken, which has long legs and is very good at kicking skills at first glance, has combined the two!
However, at this moment, the "Bonded Slow Hippopotamus Y" who had been standing on tiptoe with a dazed look like a boxer preparing for the fight kept standing there. He kept his dazed and unfocused look, raised his hand at the right time, blocked the first kick with the shell on the back of his hand, and took advantage of the momentum to retreat and avoid the second kick. Immediately,
when the Super Flame Chicken had just landed and was still unstable, he rushed forward and threw it to the side of the field with an overhand throw!
This time, it was the people watching around who showed the same look as Slow Hippopotamus...
What did they see?
Slow Hippopotamus threw Flame Chicken over his shoulder?
If you didn't see it with your own eyes, I'm afraid no one would believe it!
"This is... a leverage throw! It's a fighting skill. Not only will the fighting power increase the body's strength when it is launched, but also at the moment of contact with the opponent, as long as the opponent is in an unstable state of force, the fighting power will guide the Pokémon to make a leverage throw attack more easily." The little fat man said below.
Knowing that the little fat boy was the champion two years ago, the trainer next to him immediately asked modestly: "Fighting skills? Can Hippo learn 'Leverage Throw'?"
"Normally no, the only fighting skill that Hippo can learn is the more popular 'Ki Bomb'. 'Leverage Throw' is not something that many Fighting Pokémon can master." The little fat boy said.
"Then this is..."
"It should be the 'Bond Evolution'."
Although the state of "Bond Hippo Y" at this time still looks dull, it is actually very agile and clever. It decisively launched a pursuit of the fallen Mega Blaziken. After chasing for two steps, it suddenly jumped up and smashed down the Mega Blaziken with its knees as the center of gravity...
"Blazer, get out of the way!"
This time, everyone can see that Hippo concentrated the power of the fighting type on his knees, exerting his body strength to the extreme, and launched the "Flying Knee Kick" skill!
Hearing the sound, Super Blaziken barely moved a bit, rolling to avoid the falling Slow Hippopotamus. At this time, the performance of "Bonded Slow Hippopotamus Y" was even more surprising. When it was about to hit the ground, it resolved the fighting power concentrated on its knees, stood firmly on the spot, and began to tiptoe again...
"Flying Knee Kick" is the most powerful move among the fighting skills. It concentrates the fighting power and the body's physical strength on the knees.
While it is powerful, it is also difficult to control.
Once it is dodged or blocked by the opponent, it will suffer great recoil damage!
As for forcibly terminating the skill when it is about to take effect on the ground... This skill is already at the level of the King of Fighting Pokémon!
And now... Although the fighting power of Slow Hippopotamus in the bonded state is also at the King level, but... it is Slow Hippopotamus!
"It seems that in this state, the power of the Big Tongue Shell is stimulating its body through its hands... It is very likely that even its attributes have changed." The little fat man said below.
"That's right, 'Slowpoke y' is a dual-type fighter and psychic. Because of the stimulation of the power of the Big Tongue Shell, Slowpoke will forget his other skills and master all the fighting skills at a very high level." Guan Liyuan explained directly and generously, like a villain who died because of his talkativeness.
It seems that the power of Slowpoke and Big Tongue Shell really has all kinds of possibilities!
"I see..." The little fat man below nodded in understanding.
"Only fighting skills? Wait... that means..." Shenghuo's eyes lit up at this time, like a protagonist who was inspired by a talkative villain.
"Flame Chicken, stand up! We still have a chance!"
Guan Liyuan also understood why one sentence gave Shenghuo confidence.
Because it has no "water" attribute, it means that the fire power of Flame Chicken can play the greatest role on Hippopotamus, but the fighting power will be resisted by Hippopotamus Y's Psychic...
and forget other skills, which means that there is no need to worry about Hippopotamus Y using Psychic skills!
Although the opponent still has the "Psychic" attribute, since there are no skills, it is only useful in defense...
Therefore, Flame Chicken does not have to worry about being attacked by Psychic power that it is not good at defending.
Under the command of Shenghuo, Super Flame Chicken did play to its strengths and avoid its weaknesses, and turned over beautifully for a long time, fighting Hippopotamus Y on par!
Guan Liyuan was also helpless. He was indeed not very accustomed to Hippopotamus Y's body...
That's right, although it seems that there is no order at all, and it has been paddling all the time, but now it is almost Guan Liyuan who is controlling Hippopotamus Y's body in real time to fight.
Unlike other Pokémon who enter the "bond state" and think closely together, Hippopotamus seems to have concentrated all its strength on the body in the Y form, or the muscles have grown into the brain... It has completely given up thinking!
Fortunately, the physical fighting power has been greatly improved accordingly, otherwise this form would be really a burden...
and if it were a different trainer, it probably wouldn't be that powerful!
However, in terms of combat experience, Guan Liyuan is obviously more experienced. Although he is only a human, he has experienced the main world, the Naruto world, the Pirate world, and the Hunter world. He is not comparable to a mere Blaziken.
After Guan Liyuan gradually figured out the rhythm of the fighting power, he finally sold a little cuteness... No, it was a little flaw, and locked Blaziken in a position where it had to withstand the attack!
"Not good... Blaziken, use 'Stand'!"
Super Blaziken left a real afterimage on the spot, and the main body retreated.
"Stand" can replace Pokémon to withstand an attack, but the price is that this move consumes a lot of physical strength!
However, Guan Liyuan didn't even give the opponent a chance to consume it!
The shells on Hippo's hands that looked like boxing gloves shone brightly, revealing the power of the Psychic type, and the power of the Fighting type was condensed on his fists...
Then he quickly punched the direction of the Stand of Flame Chicken and its original body!
"What? This is... what kind of combo? Didn't you say you forgot all the other skills?" Shenghuo said in surprise.
"I did forget the other skills... but you seem to have forgotten that the bond evolution will bring exclusive skills! Go... continuous mind punch!"
Like "mind hammer", it is a rare skill in the Psychic type that uses physical attacks.
Mind hammer concentrates the power of the Psychic type on the head, while Hippo's "continuous mind punch" concentrates it on the shell gloves on both hands. At the same time, this is also a dual-type skill, and the Fighting type power is also concentrated on the fists...
And this is a "continuous attack" skill, which can attack 2 to 5 times at a time. The number of times is not only related to proficiency and the opponent's dodge awareness, but also to the state of the Pokémon used at the time!
However, the extra feature of Hippopotamus's Y state is no longer "regeneration" but "continuous attack"...
Ignoring the randomness of the state, it can perform five consecutive attacks stably!
One punch smashed the opponent's stand, and the second, third, fourth, and fifth punches, four consecutive hits, especially the four punches with psychic power, directly knocked down Super Flame Chicken.
Flame Chicken instantly broke away from the "super evolution" form, and it was obviously unconscious. Shenghuo wanted to exchange Pokémon but it was too late...
