Even though it was just a verbal agreement, with so many people in the livestream, Wang Yi wasn't afraid the man would go back on his word later.
Wang Yi quickly scanned the QR code and paid 200 yuan, then, as agreed, sent out her Pokemon Wooloo.
Seeing this, the man sent out his Flamigo, which was also Normal Class (Level 20).
A Pokemon, entirely pink, like an Earth flamingo, stood on one leg on the stage.
It had a round body and wings, long slender legs and neck, and strangely, there was a knot tied at the base of its neck.
Although it was a bird, it was also very good at fighting on the ground with its two feet, so it had both Flying and Fighting dual attributes.
At this moment, the referee quickly said, "Begin!"
As if the words he spoke would burn his mouth.
Wang Yi already knew his habit, so she preemptively commanded, "Cotton Guard!"
This was a move Wooloo had specifically learned from Xiao Mei; Xiao Mei hadn't used this move much since evolving into Ampharos, and teaching Wooloo had really tormented Xiao Mei, the genius.
Xiao Mei herself usually learned a move in one go, but it took a week of teaching Wooloo for it to barely manage to use the move.
Fortunately, hard work pays off; now Wooloo could use this move very skillfully, its entire fleece turning from white to green, and its defense greatly increased.
Meanwhile, the man on the other side finally commanded Flamigo to use Double Kick.
Flamigo flapped its wings, rapidly approaching Wooloo; because it could fly, it could kick with both feet simultaneously in the air.
But kicking Wooloo, whose defense had increased by three stages and who also had the 'Fluffy' ability, still had no effect.
And Wang Yi gave the opponent no chance:
"Wooloo! Continue Cotton Guard!"
Wooloo let Flamigo kick it, while wisps of light seeped from its fleece, growing brighter, and its fleece also expanded further.
Every strand of wool seemed like a magical thread, light interwoven, encasing it in a sphere emitting a mysterious halo, like an indestructible fortress.
Qin Ying, below, seemed to recall something painful, resting her face in her hand.
Her Mankey used to beat Wooloo easily until Wooloo learned Cotton Guard; Mankey never won again.
And now Flamigo was in the same situation; when it kicked Wooloo, it only felt as if it were kicking a giant sponge, soft and powerless.
Wang Yi waved her hand and said,
"Alright, it's our turn, Wooloo, Headbutt."
Wooloo rotated its massive body, aimed its forehead at the Flamigo jumping around it, and delivered a powerful Headbutt.
Flamigo was sent spinning, disoriented.
Now the livestream was full of people mocking the streamer, as the audience thought the streamer was about to lose.
The man also realized something was wrong, so he had Flamigo switch moves: "Use Throw Down! Attack its lower body."
Flamigo heard the command, bent one knee, and prepared to brutally kick Wooloo's foot with its other leg.
But as it squatted down, it realized that Wooloo's legs were not long to begin with, and now, due to the expanded fleece, only a hoof was barely visible.
Flamigo had no place to kick.
Seeing Flamigo squat down, Wang Yi said,
"Let's kick it too, Double Kick!"
Wooloo leaped forward, its sharp hooves directly kicking the stunned Flamigo in the face, sending Flamigo sprawling to the ground.
This caused a burst of laughter in the livestream.
"There's a trainer like this, who lets their Pokemon get kicked in the face?"
"He's lost, isn't he?"
"Go, little girl!"
...
The staff backstage had grim faces, gesturing for the man to quickly figure something out.
What could the man on stage do?
Flamigo at this level had no special attack methods at all, and if he had money for Flamigo's TM, he wouldn't be livestreaming here!
Wing Attack, Double Kick, Throw Down, Peck.
He used all of Flamigo's moves, but still couldn't break through that damned Cotton Guard.
And while Wooloo's damage was a bit low, and it was less agile due to its greatly expanded fleece,
it forced Flamigo to retreat repeatedly, finally cornering it against the wall.
Under the weeping gaze of the man, Wang Yi gave her final instruction:
"Wooloo, one last Headbutt!"
Wooloo, nestled in its fleece, let out a spirited cry:
"Wool!" (Goodbye, then!)
Its four hooves powerfully pawed the ground, emitting dull thuds and kicking up a cloud of dust.
Immediately after, it pushed off with its hind legs, rushing towards the opponent like an arrow released from a bowstring.
In the blink of an eye, it had reached Flamigo, lowering its head fiercely, and unleashed the Headbutt move with immense force.
"Bang!" This strike was powerful and heavy, like a sledgehammer blow. Flamigo was hit squarely, and with a few crisp 'crack' sounds, cracks appeared on the wall, spreading rapidly like a spiderweb, as if proclaiming the astonishing power of this Headbutt move.
Then Flamigo fell heavily to the ground, its eyes rolled back, and it fainted directly.
And as Wooloo defeated Flamigo, a dazzling white light began to emanate from its body.
As the light dissipated, Wooloo became even taller; it had evolved into Dubwool.
Dubwool was 1.2 meters tall, and its formerly delicate horns had grown into large ones, even a pair of sharp horns emerged from the fleece on either side of its cheeks.
The only pity was that its fleece was no longer pure white, but rather mixed with a lot of brown.
Wang Yi happily ran up and hugged Dubwool: "That's great, you evolved!"
Then she pointed at the cracks in the wall and asked, "This isn't my fault, right?"
The staff from the mall quickly came out upon hearing the commotion and stated that it was the responsibility of the streamer setting up the stall in the mall, and Wang Yi did not need to compensate.
At this moment, Wang Yi leaned closer to the man and asked, "Didn't you say you'd give me one before? Now that I've won, shouldn't you give me another one?"
The man, as the streamer, gnashed his teeth in irritation, his expression changing rapidly.
And Wang Yi leaned in close to him, whispering like a demon, "Think carefully! You're livestreaming right now, and there are quite a few people watching."
The man gritted his teeth and said,
"Fine! You pick, pick two!"
The man had originally intended to earn a little from livestream donations, but who knew that now, because he lost, he didn't get any boss donations at all, and now he even had to pay for two items.
It was truly losing both the wife and the army.
Wang Yi first chose a Drowzee's hair, and then she helped her silly younger brother pick a Rockruff's stone.
This prompted a loud cheer from Huang Mao: "Long live Sister Yi!"
