Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

however.

This is just the beginning.

but.

Giovanni's counterattack has begun.

The Zapdos in mid-air had its eyes flashing with a cold light, and its golden body was covered with fine and complex arcs of electricity.

A bolt of lightning the size of a golden millstone streaked through the air.

It tore through not only the air, but also the sand and dust that filled the sky.

They set their sights on Tokis.

Giovanni's Zapdos is the strongest Special Attacker on his team, and also the one with the most explosive power.

Even though Tokiss excels at special defense.

However, due to its type disadvantage, coupled with Zapdos' overwhelming strength, it was destined not to withstand this attack.

Countless threads of superpower shot out and connected to each of Xia Yan's Pokémon.

Under the delicate control of superpowers.

This makes Togekiss less adept at the "Switch" move.

It can also freely swap positions with any of its own Pokémon.

but.

Who can withstand Zapdos's attack?

Dorombaluto?

It seems that only Dramberto's strength can withstand it head-on.

Pokkis hesitated briefly.

But it quickly received a response.

The one who conveyed the message to it was the absolute leader of the team, Beedrill!

"Hiss!"

With a loud bang.

A thunderbolt appeared!

They took advantage of the convenience of "exchanging venues".

Togekiss dodged the attack that was enough to instantly incapacitate it.

Instead of enduring it, it was a bee with wings also covered in electric arcs.

A split-second reaction.

Beedrill ended its "Shadow Clone" ability but did not directly engage in combat.

The "Thunder" move itself has a low hit rate.

Even if Hippowdon sensed Togekiss's location and promptly informed Zapdos, it only improved the situation slightly.

But even without facing it head-on.

In the instant the lightning exploded.

Beedrill was inevitably covered and overwhelmed by the golden lightning.

As if bathed in endless thunder, it made its body shine even brighter.

I don't know if it's just my imagination.

Beedrill's already gleaming golden wings seemed to be devouring the lightning.

But Beedrill coldly and resolutely blocked the attack. Even though the "Shadow Clone" and its mutated wings prevented it from suffering much damage, it still felt a stinging pain all over its body.

But the sting spurred the Beedrill's fighting spirit.

His scarlet eyes were fixed on the giant golden bird in the sky.

The lightning dissipated.

Beedrill growled.

His figure shot out like lightning.

A fine, wispy current leaves its mark at the end of its flight path, forming a golden arc.

It seems that the wings absorbed some of the lightning.

It could also be because the electric current emanating from Zapdos attracts Beedrill due to their similar polarity.

Its speed was even faster than before.

Instead of retreating, they're advancing!

onslaught!

However, under the control of the hippopotamus, the yellow sand gathered wildly in front of Zapdos, forming a sandstorm barrier.

Simultaneously.

Garchomp, which hadn't moved an inch, finally made a move.

It stepped on the sand.

Like a shark truly roaming in the desert.

Sand is the kind of water that sharks love.

In addition, its inherent "sand concealment" ability allows it to thrive, reaching ridiculously high speeds.

All Beedrill could see was a shark fin.

The fear of a shark fin approaching and fiercely attacking.

However, it did not deter the Beedrill in any way.

Instead of causing any fear, it made the frequency of its wing flapping increase again.

The speed was increased once again.

The airflow surrounding the rider also helped to shield it from the effects of the sandstorm.

Or.

The sand can't keep up with the speed of the beedrill.

Seeing Beedrill's speed, even Giovanni couldn't help but nod in approval.

Judging solely from the speed, Xia Yan's training of Beedrill is absolutely outstanding.

It was worthwhile for the secrets and exchanges he provided.

But is it too naive to think that you can avoid the Garchomp that rises from the sand with just these things?

But was Beedrill so confident in its speed that it ignored Garchomp?

Do not!

It is because of its absolute trust in its companions.

Just as Garchomp's fins, imbued with Dragon-type energy, ripped through like "dragon claws,"...

The void beside Beedrill opened up instantly.

A gigantic dragon wreathed in dark energy roared forth.

It's Dorombalto!

boom--!!

The surrounding sand and dust exploded uncontrollably in an instant.

Garchomp's "Dragon Claw" clashed head-on with Dragapult's "Sneak Attack".

A sudden roar erupted.

The aftershocks from the collision surged and spread outwards in an instant, creating a vacuum zone within the sandstorm created by the hippopotamus.

"Roar!"

Garchomp growled and hissed, its cold shark eyes fixed on Dragapult that had appeared before it.

Dragapult had no intention of showing any respect to Garchomp. Two arrows shot out from the top of its head and went straight for Garchomp.

Meanwhile, Alakazam, seeing this, quickly used a combination of "Playing Role" and "Ability Swap" to copy Beedrill's "Sniper" ability to Dragapult.

This made Draco Barut, who unleashed "Dragon Arrows," act like a real sniper rifle, accurately hitting Garchomp.

One "dragon arrow" was blocked by the Garuda's fin, while another struck its abdomen.

The "Sniper" ability was triggered, and Garchomp hunched over in pain.

But this pain did not deter Garchomp from retreating; instead, it greatly aroused its ferocity. Its eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and it stepped on the sandstorm that was gathering again, gathering Ground-type energy, and charged towards Dragapult.

Along with them came Nidoking and Rhyperior.

Nidoking's pointed horn emitted a chilling, azure beam that pierced through the sandstorm and struck Dorambaruto.

Frozen beam.

Furthermore, when Nidoking unleashed this move, his aura surged, and a jewel brimming with life energy shone brightly on his chest.

The "Forced" characteristic combined with the "Life Orb"!

Nidoking's strongest burst of power and item combinations!

As the Super Armored Rhinoceros stomped its foot on the ground, a violent rumbling and shaking of the arena caused sharp, earth-yellow rock pillars to rise from the ground.

Sharp Stone Attack!

Facing an attack from three Pokémon.

Dorombalo made the same choice as Beedrill.

They completely ignored the attacks from Nidoking and Rhyperior.
