“Drapion, Poison Impact.”
Facing the Heat Wave, a Fire-type move released by the Champion Pokémon Charizard, Drapion, which was only at the Champion level, naturally couldn't take it head-on. It could only counteract some of its power and reduce its force by comparing its own move to it.
Suddenly, a surge of dark purple venom, like a surging wave, erupted from beneath Drapion's massive body. This powerful force actually lifted Drapion high into the air, about one meter off the ground.
Seeing this, the Deputy Leader didn't hesitate and ordered Hydreigon, “Hydreigon, Surf.”
Surf is a Water-type special attack move with 90 power. This move is also a group attack type, making it very suitable for team battles, similar to Heat Wave.
Hydreigon soared into the air to the same height as Charizard, gathering the rich Water-type energy from Lake Heart Island. A powerful stream of water, like a surging torrent, burst forth! In an instant, the entire Core area was enveloped by this massive water current.
Hydreigon is a Quasi-Legendary Pokémon after all, and its exceptionally high Attack and Special Attack base stats allow it to master any offensive move. Even when on solid ground, it can unleash such astonishing power, still capable of stirring up towering waves.
The waves churned and roared, and Drapion's Poison Impact move was also in a liquid state. Since their attacks were in the same direction, the two moves instantly merged.
Suddenly, the already surging wave, laden with suffocatingly dense dark purple toxins, surged forward with an unstoppable, overwhelming force!
At the same time, the powerful Heat Wave move released by Charizard, flapping its wings on the opposite side, swept in like a scorching screen, wide-ranging and immensely powerful.
In an instant, these two distinct yet equally formidable forces collided violently!
The entire space seemed to be shaken by this intense collision. Scorching, steaming Heat Waves intertwined with churning, roaring ocean waves, producing a deafening roar.
“Tsk—” With a sudden sharp, hissing sound like escaping gas, a vast expanse of white mist instantly rose from the intense clash between the rolling Heat Waves and the surging water waves.
Under the scorching heat of this intense energy, the water in the waves rapidly evaporated and vaporized, turning into countless tiny water droplets suspended in the air.
However, despite the waves being subjected to such intense heat, they were, after all, a move jointly unleashed by two General-level Pokémon, and they were not dispersed by the Heat Wave.
The originally incredibly hot wave, in continuous collision with the icy cold water, also began to rapidly decrease in temperature. The previously blazing flames gradually lost their ferocity, their intensity slowly diminishing, until only a few faint embers remained flickering and struggling in the wind.
What was worse, the deadly toxins hidden in the seawater also changed under the effect of high temperature. They vaporized and escaped from the seawater, rapidly spreading into the surrounding air.
These poisonous mists emitted a nauseating, putrid smell, like the demonic aura from the abyss of hell, making people sick to their stomachs.
“Now's our chance! Hydreigon, Tailwind.”
Roar—
Accompanied by a earth-shattering dragon's roar, Hydreigon's massive and formidable body suddenly flapped its pair of wings, which were as huge, sturdy, and powerful as thick tree trunks.
In an instant, strong winds howled, and air currents surged rapidly. Behind Hydreigon, an endless flow of Flying-type energy churned like surging waves. They intertwined and merged, finally converging into an extremely violent gust of wind that swept in suddenly, immense in its power.
Although he had just had a dispute with the Deputy Leader, and there were many schemes and tricks involved, when they were tied together like grasshoppers on the same rope, they did show a hint of tacit understanding.
He said, “Well done.”
Hydreigon unleashed the Tailwind move. Although this is a Flying-type status move that doubles the speed of allied Pokémon.
But this was in real life. The storm it stirred up blew all the putrid toxins generated in the air from the collision of the Heat Wave and the poison tide earlier towards Li Guanjun's camp. Coupled with Zhang Heng behind Li Guanjun and the four unconscious Alliance personnel who had been poisoned, Li Guanjun could not dodge and had to take this move head-on.
Li Guanjun frowned: “Tsk, impressive. Fire Spin.”
The flames at Charizard's tail suddenly surged like a volcanic eruption, blazing fiercely and emitting extremely intense high temperatures.
A scorching aura permeated the air, even distorting the surrounding air with its terrifying heat, creating an illusory and hazy scene.
Immediately after, it violently swung its thick, powerful Dragon Tail, and a fireball, dazzling like a meteor, whistled out, shooting straight forward.
The fireball flew and spun rapidly in the air, continuously absorbing surrounding energy. In the blink of an eye, it expanded into a giant Fire Spin with a diameter of three meters, circling in the air. The pressure generated by the rotation caused the surrounding air and wind to be absorbed by the vortex!
A simple move had already broken through the Tailwind move carrying toxins.
“This is simply not a battle of the same magnitude. Two moves easily broke our two combined attacks.”
He did not listen to the Deputy Leader's despondent words, but instead observed Charizard's status.
Charizard had used two consecutive moves. Although their power was not of the same magnitude as the Deputy Leader said, no matter how strong the opponent, it only had one Pokémon. It needed time to use moves, and there must be a vacuum period after using them.
It must be in a vacuum period now. He immediately seized the opportunity and ordered, “Drapion, Rock Tomb!”
Drapion's pincers plunged into the ground, gathering Rock-type energy. From the ground, it clamped out several Rock chunks the size of basketballs, one after another, and threw them at Charizard, who was in its move's vacuum period.
Charizard has a Fire/Flying type combination, making it 4x weak to Rock-type moves. If hit by this Rock Tomb, it would take 4x damage. While it wouldn't be an instant K.O., it would still take a certain amount of damage and its speed would be lowered by one stage.
“Chandelure, Haze.”
“Hiss~”
Suddenly, a sound like gas leaking was heard. Black smoke rose from Chandelure's four arms, which resembled lit candles, rapidly covering the battleground for both sides.
