Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

Super Latios's eyes also shone with surging superpowers.

boom! ! !

When the Scorpion King took a bite, it felt as if it had bitten into a ball of cotton.

The Scorpio King, sensing something amiss, was momentarily taken aback.

I only noticed it after looking closely.

It couldn't even touch Latios.

It was blocked by a seemingly gentle but extremely resilient superpower.

more importantly.

With its bite.

That surging superpower enveloped and entwined itself from all around, like countless threads.

even.

The sand swirling around the Scorpion King was also dispersed and separated from its body.

Xia Yan's lips curled up slightly.

I've been waiting for you.

Since we can't defeat Scorpion King by getting past Steelix, then we'll make you show yourself!

Latios is the second core player of Xia Yan's team!

At this moment, Super Latios is no longer just a support or a pivotal unit.

It's... a mythical beast!

The mouth moved again.

A beam of azure blue "frozen beam" was spat out from the mouth of Super Latios.

Seeing this, Kikuno realized that Natsuhiko's surprise at seeing the sparks fly when Draco and Steelix collided was all an act.

A mixture of truth and deception.

The guy on the other side.

Whether on the battlefield or off the battlefield, one cannot completely trust others!

"Steel Serpent, Stone Attack!"

Kikuno had no choice but to call out to Steelix to stop, signaling it to rescue Scorpion.

"Baruya!!"

However, Dorombalto, in his "enthusiastic" state, is not so easily fooled.

the most important is.

After restricting Scorpion King's movements, Mega Latios and Draco Balthus suddenly switched places.

The "Frozen Beam" emitted by Super Latios precisely swept across the area where Super Steelix touched the ground.

ka ka ka-

In an instant.

Frost covered the ground.

The Super Steelix, having stopped its "Gyro Ball" attack, was unable to quickly get rid of the ice crystals.

Dragapult, brimming with the last bit of pride and rage emanating from its dragon-type nature, unleashed its final "reverse scale" upon Gliscor.

Bang! ! !

Scorpio King was slammed to the ground like a bullet.

Kikuno frowned.

Xia Yan's "infinite switching" or "infinite rotation" strategy is not that strong when there is a difference in strength between the two Pokémon, or when one of them has a clear weakness.

However, things can get very complicated when two Pokémon that can freely switch between each other are of similar strength and both pose a significant threat.

Dragapult, who possessed Champion-level strength early on, and Latios, who gained Champion-level strength through Mega Evolution and was already a gifted legendary Pokémon.

These two elves.

From the perspective of Kikuno's current Pokémon pairings, there are no obvious weaknesses.

If she can't find her weaknesses, but Xia Yan finds her strengths, then the situation will be very unfavorable for Kikuno!

For example, right now.

Mega Latios versus Mega Steelix; for a short time, neither side can defeat the other.

However, Super Latios has enough speed to take the initiative against Super Scorbunny.

Once Dralongarut has escaped the effects of the "Reverse Scale," he will be able to suppress Scorpion King.

Xia Yan's "unlimited switching" tactic has the greatest advantage in finding the opponent's weaknesses.

Now that we've captured the relatively weaker Scorpion King, shouldn't we launch a fierce attack?

Kikuno made a quick decision.

Take out the Poké Ball.

"Come back, Scorpion King."

She then took out her last Poké Ball.

Seeing this, Xia Yan couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

Unfortunately, they couldn't defeat Scorpion King instantly, allowing Kikuno to replace the spirit, which only added more variables.

but.

While Kikuno was taking back the spirits, Natsuhiko was also busy.

"Latios, Simple Beam! Draco, Dragon Dance!"

A simple beam of light!

It can make the characteristics of the target "simple".

Xia Yan's target wasn't Mega Steelix, nor was it the unknown Pokémon that Kikuno was about to replace, but... Dragapult!

Then, a pure white beam of light from Super Latios swept across Draco Valet.

This caused its characteristics to transform into "simplicity".

Meanwhile, Dorambaruto also moved his body in the same way, and as his figure rose higher and higher with the "Dragon Dance", the oppressive feeling brought by his aura also increased wildly!

Simplicity: When a Pokémon possesses this trait, its abilities will be enhanced or weakened in double the amount when they change.

Kikuno's speed in throwing the Poké Ball was already quite fast, definitely exceeding that of over 95% of trainers.

However, Xia Yan, who was fighting against him, also had a wealth of combat experience.

Given that the speed of the Mega Steelix was limited by Mega Latios, it would be too late to stop it.

Only those who appeared later...

"Nidoking, Ice Beam!"

As soon as the Poké Ball landed, Kikuno demonstrated what "timed command" and "ice buildup inside the Poké Ball" meant.

"Roar!!!"

Nidoran appeared without the slightest hesitation, unleashing a pure, light blue beam of light from the pointed horn atop his head.

Between bursts of light.

Wherever it passed, the air condensed into beautiful ice crystals and snowflakes.

Just by the power of this "Frozen Beam", it is clear that Kikuno's Nidoking is definitely a Champion-level powerhouse!

not only that.

Moreover, it must be a Nidoking with the "Forced" trait and wearing the "Life Orb" item.

therefore.

It poses a great threat to both Draco and Mega Latios!

"Switch production sites!" Xia Yan commanded using telepathy.

Although it poses a threat to both elves.

But Dorombalut's boost must succeed!

Upon hearing this...

Mega Latios used "Switch Field" to switch places with Dragapult, whose momentum was rising, and took the "Ice Beam" in its place!

Fortunately.

Nidoking was a spirit summoned later, giving Mega Latios some time to react.

After swapping positions with Drambert, the countless invisible psychic threads emanating from Mega Latios condensed into a transparent glass barrier in front of Mega Latios at top speed.

It took shape just in time before the "freezing beam" hit it!

luck?

Or is it part of the calculation?

Kikuno couldn't make a judgment.

boom!!!

Regardless, even though it was partially blocked by the "Light Wall," Nidoking's "Ice Beam" still inevitably struck Mega Latios, who had no time to dodge.

but.

in exchange.

Dorombalut has once again successfully performed the "Dance of the Dragon".

and.
