Pokémon, Inkaros, my starter Pokémon

A-Ju silently withdrew the moth.

A-Ju really didn't expect the opponent to use such a mutually destructive fighting style. It was just like Gager in Time Battle, who always liked to get beaten up. But at the moment, A-Ju's ninja mentality allowed him to quickly calm down. His eyes narrowed and he sent out his second Pokémon.

"Arbok, come on!"

With a flash of white light, a gigantic Arbok appeared in the arena.

Arbok appeared and lingered on the field, its scarlet tongue flicking in and out, radiating a dangerous aura.

"Arbok, use Poison Sting!" Arbok quickly gave the order.

In Aju’s opinion, given Pokel’s current state, even the most basic poison needle move would be enough to take him down.

"Just right!!"

Arbok quickly opened its mouth, and then a barrage of purple poison needles shot towards the swaying Pokel.

Everyone thought the battle was about to end.

However, at this critical moment... Shi Dou quickly gave the order:

"Now, Pokel, let's fight to the death!"

In an instant, Pokel, who had seemed listless, suddenly burst out with a sharp light in his eyes, and the speed boost from "High-Speed ​​Movement" was perfectly displayed at this moment.

With an incredibly elegant and swift turn, Pokel narrowly avoided all the poison needles, then instantly closed the distance with Arbok, finally extending its wings and slamming them heavily onto Arbok's massive body...

Instantly, an indescribable force of rules enveloped both sides.

"what?!"

Alarm bells rang in A-Ju's mind.

This move... gave him a bad feeling.

The next moment... a sudden change occurred!

The massive wings and the impact kicked up dust. As the dust settled, Pokel was thrown backward from the dust and landed on the ground, panting heavily with a pained expression. It was now struggling to maintain its flight and seemed about to collapse at any moment.

On the other hand, Arbok...

Originally full of power and in its best condition, it suddenly seemed as if all its strength had been drained in an instant, and its huge body went limp and collapsed to the ground with a "thud"!

Arbok struggled to raise its head, while Nobuko slumped down, her eyes filled with shock and exhaustion. Her condition suddenly deteriorated, becoming exactly like Pokel's, as if she had also gone through a series of fierce battles and was on the verge of exhaustion!

“Wow——!!!”

A huge gasp erupted from the audience.

The commentator was utterly shocked:

"Wait, what... what happened? What's going on? Arbok just appeared, at full strength! Why is it suddenly as weak as Pokel?! That 'Shared Fate'... could it be, could it be a move like 'Brute Force' that forcibly splits stamina?! Unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable!!"

The entire audience was shocked!!

A-Ju was also stunned on the spot.

Pokel: Do you like my willingness to live and die together?

Chapter 109 A-Ju: I've been screwed over! Is this how you play Pokémon battles?

A huge roar erupted from the audience; everyone was stunned by this dramatic turn of events.

"Am I seeing things? How did Arbok suddenly stop working?"

"What kind of move is 'living and dying together'? How could someone learn such a shameless move?!"

"A Pokel with low health managed to pull a fully-health Arbok to the same level?"

The superstars in the guest seats also looked surprised.

"Good lad, so that's what you've been waiting for!" Shiba suddenly realized that all his previous acts of risking his life were for this moment.

Pokel's stamina is now like a candle flickering in the wind, but that's exactly the result Tokito wanted.

Grandma Kikuko: "Using a low-health elf as bait, A-Ju suffered a great loss this time, because she didn't expect the opponent to learn a skill similar to 'brute force'."

Kona: "Akira is in big trouble now. Tokito looks like such a sunny boy, but I never expected him to use such a dark technique."

In the arena, Aju stared in disbelief at the limp Arbok, then at the panting Pokel opposite him, and was momentarily speechless.

In that moment of distraction, Tokito wouldn't give Aju any chance to react.

"Pokel, use Quick Attack!"

"Damn it, Arbok, use Poison Tail to retaliate."

A-Ju was still immersed in the fact that Arbok had become Pokel's plaything, but after hearing Tokito's command, he quickly reacted and hurriedly shouted.

"Po~~"

Pokel mustered its last bit of strength, its body transforming into a white streak of light as it hurtled toward Arbok at top speed. Arbok struggled to raise its tail, which shimmered with a deadly purple light, and lashed out at the oncoming white light!

"boom!"

"Snapped!"

Two muffled thuds were heard almost simultaneously.

The white streak slammed into Arbok, while Poison Tail struck Togekiss precisely. As the dust settled, both Pokémon lay on the ground, their eyes now spiral-shaped.

The referee immediately waved his flag and announced, "Pokémon and Arbok are both incapacitated!"

The commentator exclaimed excitedly, "Incredible!! The shared life and death brought both sides to the same level, and the final exchange of attacks led to them falling down at the same time. Player Shidou used a Pokel that was already on its last legs to actually take down Player Aju's two fully healthy Pokémon!"

A-Ju silently recalled Arbok, raised her head, looked at Tokito with a complicated expression, and asked in a deep voice, "That 'Shared Life and Death'... is it a move similar to 'brute force'?"

"Yes."

Shi Tou also withdrew his heroic Pokel and nodded calmly when asked.

Ah Ju's face darkened even more. He never expected that his poison-based tactics, which had dominated the competition for many years, would be outmaneuvered by his opponent in such a blatantly unfair way.

Brute force moves are not uncommon, but seasoned trainers like Aju know that Pokémon like Cocoyar and Taillow can learn this move.

However, facing the alien Pokémon, A-Ju was caught off guard by the information gap. A Pokémon with low health traded two of his main Pokémon for his life, which was simply...

Big crisis!

Shi Dou simply smiled slightly.

Do you think the statement "Your physical strength... is like a candle flickering in the wind" was just empty talk?!

Back in the day, I used this move from Pokel to defeat many SPT bosses. Before each battle, I would find nearby monsters to deplete their stamina, and then engage in combat when their health was low.

With a speed of 100 at the start, Pokel can quickly attack and take down any boss that comes its way. However, later bosses became increasingly overpowered, being faster than Pokel and immune to "Shared Fate," which led to Pokel's decline in popularity.

Otherwise, anyone would have shouted it back then:

Pikachu!!!

Although it is now, we'll have to wait until after the super evolution.

In the arena, the commentator shouted, "A-Ju is in a huge crisis. He now has to face Shi-Dou's remaining two Pokémon with only one Pokémon. How will A-Ju break this deadlock?"

The entire audience held their breath, watching the venue intently.

Aju took a deep breath, and his ninja-like resilience allowed him to quickly suppress the turmoil in his heart. His eyes became serious again as he threw out the third Poké Ball.

"Poison Skull Frog, I choose you!"

A flash of light appeared, and a Pokémon with a strong, deep blue body and a huge red venom sac on its neck appeared.

Toxicroak, a Poison/Fighting-type Pokémon, has a venom sac in its throat. If it makes a sound from its throat, the stored toxins are refined to a more potent form. The deadly poison generated from its sac travels through tubes in its arms to the spikes on its fists. Diluting this poison and mixing it with several wild herbs, then simmering it for two nights, can create a powerful tonic.

"A-Ju has sent out one of his ace Pokémon, Toxicroak! Its type is Poison and Fighting, so which Pokémon will Shi-Dou send out to counter it?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Shidou threw out a special Pokémon capsule.

"Cain, it's your turn!"

A dim light flickered, and a deep blue elf, its form as elusive as a shadow, silently appeared. Its azure eyes coldly stared at the Poison Skull Frog opposite it, and an ominous aura of shadow emanated from its body.

"Another Pokémon we've never seen before! The lineup of the Time Fighters is truly unfathomable; this is already the fourth unknown Pokémon!"

The audience erupted in chatter, whispering amongst themselves as they tried to identify Cain's origins.

Suddenly someone shouted, "I remember now! In the exhibition match between the Goldenrod Gym Leader and Sabrina, Tokito seemed to have used it. It looks like it's a Ghost-type!"

"Yes, it seems that it did happen during the gym qualifying match against Sabrina, where she defeated the powerful Gallade."

"If it's a Ghost-type... then wouldn't Toxtricity's Fighting-type be ineffective?"

"Perhaps that's the case."

In the guest seats, the superstars were also discussing the matter.

Lance: "This Pokémon... is it Cain? It's not entirely unfamiliar; it appeared before when we battled Sabrina. I watched it from the stands, and based on what I observed at the time, this Pokémon seemed to have a very troublesome defensive method, making it quite difficult to deal with."

Shiba: "Yes, I remember too. I don't know how Aju should deal with it."

The Elite Four trainers were filled with anticipation.

In the arena, Aju launched the first attack, commanding, "Poison Skull Frog, use Poison Strike."

The Poison Skull Frog leaped up, its deep blue fist gathering a deep purple venomous energy, and slammed it down on Cain at incredible speed.

“Cain, Shadow Shield,” Shi Dou said simply.

Facing the rapidly approaching Poison Skull Frog, Cain showed no panic. His azure eyes flashed slightly, and an oval shield made of deep shadow energy instantly appeared in front of it.

The Poison Skull Frog's powerful poison attack slammed into the shield, producing a loud roar, but only caused a ripple on the shield's surface before failing to achieve anything further. All the impact and toxic energy were perfectly neutralized.

A-Ju's lips curled slightly.

Just as the information I gathered showed, this strange Ghost-type Pokémon can completely block physical attacks... Actually, if I had sent out Crobat, using a special attack might have made it much easier to defeat it.

But why was the third one a poisonous skeletal frog instead of a crossbat?

That was because A-Ju wanted to prevent Tokito from sending out that Akshia...

Crobat is a Flying/Poison-type Pokémon. Flying-type Pokémon are severely countered by its Ice-type Pokémon, since even Aldebaran's Altaria and Dragonair are no match for it. Therefore, it would be better to send out the Fighting-type Toxicroak for a counter.

But unexpectedly, sending out the Poison Skull Frog resulted in running into this creature that was immune to melee attacks...
