Chapter 359 Battle between Douzi and Rental

Chapter 359 Battle between Douzi and Rental

Ignoring Lei Si who was looking grumpy and Michael who was leaving with an embarrassed smile, Zhou You calmly walked into the PTCG gym on the 6th floor of the battle tower.

tpcg is also quite popular in this world, and there are often gyms in every city. It is so popular that you can see many groups of people playing cards at the table no matter what time you go to the board game store.

In short, it is probably similar to the Yu-Gi-Oh in the Yu-Gi-Oh world?

But here, the world is not saved by playing cards, but by Pokémon battles.

Seeing that everyone else seemed to have a card game at this moment, Zhou You simply took out the card mat and the deck and sat at a table waiting, so that as long as someone was free later, they would come to him to start a game.

And not long after, a familiar face appeared opposite him.

"Douzi? Why are you here too?"

The capable ponytail girl is the same age as Zhou You. She is obviously from Unova, but this is the second time I have seen her in a card store.

Is PTCG popular in Unova too?

"Qiao Qiao, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you in a card store when I came to Hoenn to watch the doubles competition." Douzi also looked surprised, "I have always liked fighting, but the legal age of becoming a trainer in Unova is too high, so I can only look around to see if there are any competitions I like." Douzi pressed his hat and took out his deck with a smile: "PTCG is the same, because I can't operate it myself, I can only play cards to satisfy my pleasure." "I understand, the legal age of becoming a trainer in Unova seems to be relatively late compared to the rest of the world." People in Unova can only become trainers when they are 14 years old. Zhou You thinks this rule is actually quite safe. In fact, it is better to postpone it and wait until everyone has received education before taking the test to become a trainer. It is worth mentioning that Alice is actually under 14 years old, but she was taken to Unova by Shaka after she became a trainer in Kanto... There are indeed some ways to bypass this rule. "I wonder if you have heard of a rental battle mode?"

While preparing his own deck and shuffling Douzi's deck, Zhou You casually mentioned another way to circumvent this rule: "For example, in the battle tower in Larus City or the battle factory in the battle frontier, there is actually a rental battle where people randomly select the Pokémon cultivated by the staff."

Douzi was so excited when he heard this that he threw Zhou You's deck out.

"Sorry, my hand slipped..."

While she was packing up the deck, she asked with interest: "Even if you are not a trainer, you can still fight?"

"Because it is a project launched to allow non-trainers and ordinary trainers who are not good at cultivating Pokémon to enjoy fighting. By the way, you like fighting so much?"

As expected of a person who even has the word "fight" in his name, Zhou You actually always felt that Douzi and Douya's portraits were full of inexplicable fighting spirit - these two people seemed to be "battle-crazy players" like the three people in Pallet Town.

"Of course, what I like most is the battle! The victory after giving my all is the best. For this reason, I am also training my body to prepare for the future battles with the elves."

When it comes to battles, Douzi seems to be unable to stop talking: "I have already thought of the future beginner Pokémon, that is the fire-attributed Nunuanzhu, with a strong physique and a fiery fighting spirit. The fire attribute plus the fighting attribute Enwu Wang is simply perfect...ah, I didn't draw a Pokémon at the beginning."

The simplified rules of PTCG draw 7 cards at the beginning and place any number of basic Pokémon on the battlefield. If you don't draw a Pokémon, you can only shuffle and draw cards repeatedly until you draw a Pokémon.

During this period, every time you shuffle the cards, the opponent can get one more card at the beginning.

Although she is very enthusiastic about battles, Douzi's luck seems to be not very good. She shuffled the cards twice before drawing the basic Pokémon-"Flame Chicken·Enwu Wang GX".

She seems to really like Pokémon with fire and fighting attributes.

Zhou You has some similar feelings.

As soon as the game started, Douzi's temperament seemed to change. The only thing in his eyes was "victory". It seemed that everything else was no longer important. He exuded a fierce fighting spirit.

In PTCG, the fire attribute is famous for its fast deployment and high damage. With excellent support cards such as "Welder" and "Giant Furnace", it can quickly accumulate energy for the elves, so as to release powerful moves as soon as possible.

Zhou You is obviously also a fire attribute player.

When two fire attribute decks meet, the competition is the speed of deployment... or luck?

Since Reshiram has not yet come out, there is no such card as "Reshiram Charizard GX" in this world. Zhou You's current deck is "Charizard Longtail Fire Fox GX". Although the 4-energy move of 180 damage is slightly lower than Douzi's output, the subsequent support effect of searching any 3 cards in the deck provides Zhou You with an opportunity to win.

As the game reached its final stage—both players only had one prize card left—the true face of the Douzi deck finally surfaced.

“Is this… the Yan (Wu) King (Yan) Emperor Jun (Ka) deck?” Zhou You was stunned for a moment and realized the biggest problem with the Douzi deck, “Your deck is only tanky and has no output.”

Dou Zi lowered the brim of his hat: "Hey, do you still know Yanwang Dijun? In fact, I just compiled other general-purpose cards based on my favorite Yanwu King. It may not be that powerful after all."

Then she explained seriously: "Victory itself is very important, but I think the most important thing is the process of winning... But I don't want to lose either - activate the EX move High Temperature and Heavy Pressure..."

"Wait a minute, at the moment you launch the move, the future-predicting effect of the Demon Fire Red Fox takes effect, and the Flame Martial King Flame Chicken TT receives 100 points of damage not counting weaknesses!"

This damage just defeated the opponent so that Zhou You could draw 3 prize cards to win.

"Alas, I lost to you again."

Douzi looked a little discouraged after losing the card game, but he quickly adjusted: "Qiaoqiao, are you free now? Come with me to see the rental match you mentioned?"

"Aren't you going to play cards?" Zhou You still had some unfinished ideas. What kind of game would he play on his rare day off?

"Well, you can play cards at any time, but after the rental battle, there is no such store in this village. I only have 10 days in Fengyuan for this trip."

"You don't know the hand-held elves between you and your opponent. The outcome is determined by luck, knowledge of the elves, and intuition of the battle. Don't you think this is very interesting?"
