Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

A hint of surprise flashed in Beedrill's eyes.

However, the surprise in the eyes of the Kommo-o-Tai was even greater.

steaming--

A tremendous force surged through his arm, causing the Staff-tailed Kommo-o to stagger back two steps, staring at the Beedrill in astonishment.

It simply couldn't understand why a spirit that seemed to excel in speed could also possess such immense power.

If Xia Yan knew its doubts, he would definitely tell it the truth...

Speed ​​is power!

The first attempt was unsuccessful.

Without lingering, the Beedrill quickly withdrew and retreated.

It disappeared from Kommo-o'-the-Tail's sight once again.

"Morphodon, watch out for Beedrill's movements, use Dragon Dance!"

Clang!

With a single step, the scales on the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon trembled once more, and its aura rapidly increased.

"Beedrill, Swords Dance!" Xia Yan shouted in response.

The giant bee, which had disappeared from everyone's sight, suddenly reappeared, surrounded by a sword array.

At this point, the audience realized that Beedrill hadn't disappeared into thin air; it was simply because its speed was so fast that it was no longer visible to the naked eye.

The two spirits tacitly chose to strengthen themselves.

Kommo-o'-the-Wisp performed "Dragon Dance" first, but Beedrill completed its enhancement first.

Xia Yan had been having Beedrill practice "Sword Dance" for a long time. "Sword Dance" was a fixed training task every day. After years of doing so, it finally showed outstanding results.

"Poisonous attack." Xia Yan said again.

hum-

The giant bee flapped its wings, its body flashed again, and a lightning arc appeared.

As long as the "high-speed movement" ability remains, Beedrill will only become faster and harder to catch.

“A staff-tailed armored dragon, with a lightweight body!” Kukui said.

With its thick, armor-like armor, the Scaly Dragon's speed is significantly inferior. If the difference in speed between it and Beedrill is too great, even if it manages to track Beedrill's movements, it will be difficult to launch an effective counterattack.

So Kukui had no choice but to try gambling.

Bang! !

The long needle that appeared out of nowhere was accompanied by a strong toxin.

The scales covering the arm that the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon hastily raised blocked the direction of the long needle.

The foul-smelling toxin is injected into the scales.

Before the staff-tailed armored dragon could even show any joy, the toxin that spread along the long needle actually adhered to its scales.

The hissing sound of corrosion accompanied by rising black smoke and a foul stench.

Its resilient scales are a source of great pride.

It's actually corroded?!

The toxins spread along the scales throughout the entire body of the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon.

poisoned!

Such a potent toxin!

Du, watching from the sidelines, was secretly astonished and couldn't help but look at Xia Yan.

The method of enhancing the bee venom is known only to the two of them.

Now that the venom of the giant bee is so potent, some unpleasant images flashed through Wataru's mind.

He shook his head vigorously, trying to dismiss it.

The law of the jungle prevails over the strong.

"The Kommo-o-Tron has been poisoned. The Royal's representative contestant is really unlucky today," the host exclaimed.

luck?

Xia Yan smirked.

Pokkiss was luck.

Beedrills don't believe in luck.

All its "luck" is built on its strength!

The venom sacs of dozens of near-Elite Four level Poison-type Pokémon—Beedrill wasn't just sitting around doing that.

Even if each one is strengthened by just a little bit, Beedrill's venom is now incredibly terrifying.

Having succeeded in its attack, Beedrill retreated without hesitation.

The Staff-tailed Armored Dragon frowned deeply as the poison ravaged its body, spreading rapidly. All the energy within it was powerless against this poison.

Kukui's heart skipped a beat.

As a result, time became increasingly unfavorable to them.

We must finish this quickly!

Turn the tide as soon as possible.

With that thought in mind, Kukui gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"Spirit-tailed Armored Dragon, Soul Dance Sonic Boom!"

Soul Dance Sonic Boom: At the cost of one-third of its own HP, it can boost all five basic stats: Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed.

It can be described as a weaker version of Eevee's signature "Z-Move".

Clang! Clang! Clang! —

With each movement of the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon, its scales emitted a powerful clanging sound.

Each sound was accompanied by an increase in the power of the Staff-tailed Kommo-o, causing its aura to surge.

"Dragon Pulse! Then charge!"

Then I saw it.

The blue-purple energy that the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon had gathered on its arm was released, followed closely by its body.

With one "Dragon Dance," one "Body Lightening," and one "Soul Dance Sonic Boom," the speed of the Staff-tailed Kommo-o has become quite impressive.

In addition, it used its ability to lock onto Beedrill with sound and air vibrations, and for the first time chose to launch an attack.

Beedrill sidestepped the attack of "Dragon Pulse".

With a flash of crimson compound eyes, the long needle slashed out, its cross-shaped blade blocking the fist of the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon.

This time.

The Beedrill was repelled.

With its red eyes and ferocious appearance, the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon, after repelling the Beedrill Queen, continued to press forward.

"Hiss!"

Beedrill's aura surged, and it did not flinch in the face of the ferocious Kommo-o, charging straight at it.

BOOM—BOOM—BOOM—!

The sounds of collisions were deafening, and only amidst the flying sparks could the audience clearly see where the collisions occurred.

boom!!

With a fierce collision between "Cross Scissors" and "Dragon Claw", the two elves retreated.

They got really angry.

Stare intently at the other person.

"Has it been found?"

But then Xia Yan's voice came from behind.

"Hiss!"

The giant bee nodded emphatically, its two needles rubbing together slowly, gleaming coldly.

"Very good, consecutive kills!"

hum-

Beedrill reappears.

This time.

The fierce gaze of the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon faltered slightly.

It's gotten faster again?

Its eyes moved left and right, trying to pinpoint the location of the bee.

But it suddenly discovered that it was not even able to keep up with the speed of the Beedrill in terms of detecting air vibrations.

Bang! !

Intense pain.

It came from the abdomen.

The Staff-tailed Armored Dragon immediately hunched over, its eyes widening.

I looked down in disbelief.

It came right into the line of sight of the Beedrill.

What kind of look was that?
