...
Set foot in Noivern.
Past the layers of fire, come to the center of Volcarona's battle with Courtney at this time.
As he could see, even a very tired Volcarona wouldn't lose against Pokémon Courtney.
But Courtney didn't panic, her ideas and tactical goals were clear.
is fighting consumption.
Without defeating Volcarona, just consume it continuously, until Volcarona can't take it anymore.
If Natsu wasn't around, or if Volcarona hadn't exploded with a more powerful ability, Courtney's decision might actually have worked.
But unfortunately.
At Dragapult's suggestion, Natsu is here to intervene!
"Dragapult, Dragon Dance."
Natsu stood on the Noivern's back and spoke softly.
After that, the hidden Dragapult suddenly appeared, with a four-meter large body swaying her body, showing a strange rhythm, and her abilities were quickly blessed.
The other side.
Natsu catches Courtney's attention as soon as he appears, and raises her guard against Natsu's sudden appearance, even though the Noiven under his feet doesn't seem to be much of a threat.
But until Dragapult appeared, her complexion instantly changed.
This Dragon-Type Pokémon, which she had never seen before, was extremely powerful!
It might even be stronger than the Volcarona in front of her.
This was completely unexpected for Courtney.
Alliance Elite?
Isn't it already blocked?
And the appearance of this person hiding his head and showing his tail is not what an Elite should be, this Pokémon is also a Pokémon that is unheard of.
The Alliance's trump card among these young Trainers?
Why didn't it appear earlier?
Faced with Courtney who was full of doubts, Natsu didn't hesitate.
After Dragapult finished the Dragon Dance, he immediately ordered: "Quick Attack, Dragon Rush!"
"Bart!"
Dragapult shouted loudly, Her figure shot out like lightning, and swept over a short distance in the blink of an eye.
Purple Dragon Type Energy frantically surged from her body, covering the surface of the body, forming the appearance of a faint dragon.
Immediately after, she swung her tail gently and swooped down from top to bottom. The fierce power instantly changed Courtney's complexion.
"Camerupt, Protect!"
An emerald green energy shield appeared in front of Courtney's Camerrupt. Facing Dragapult's impact, Camerupt firmly assumed the responsibility of the meat shield.
Only.
How did Camerupt stop Dragapult?
When some of Courtney's main Pokémon become entangled with Volcarona, she definitely won't last long in the face of the siege of Volcarona and Dragapult, two powerful Pokémon.
One is fine, but two are completely out of balance.
Bang! !
Protect Camerupt's energy shield shattered and staggered backwards. After Dragon Rush Dragapult destroyed Protect, the impact it brought still made Camerupt couldn't help but bear the impact.
"Draco Meteor."
Commanding the Dragapult requires no extra skills or tactics, just brute force.
With such a huge power gap, as long as Natsu could ensure his own safety, he didn't need to worry too much about Dragapult's safety.
When Natsu was alone, he also had to worry about whether Courtney would send some Pokemon to restrain Dragapult and come straight to him.
But now it's not only Dragapult, there's also Volcarona who has been provoked by Courtney, let alone taking out Pokemon to face Natsu, she can't even withstand Volcarona and Dragapult's attacks.
roar!
Dragapult sucked in a hissing breath full of Dragon Type energy, aiming straight at Charizard who was flying in the sky.
Though Charizard barely dodged the attack with a quick counterattack.
But Draco Meteor's attack had just begun.
The lava-like Fireball, shrouded in rich Dragon Type energy, quickly sank into the low clouds.
bang! !
With an explosive sound, one after another Fireballs fell from the sky and launched large-scale cover attacks.
Courtney gritted her teeth.
Instruct Pokémon to use Protect for defense.
Although this round has been resisted, the next round will not be so easy.
But she still didn't give up, because she could clearly feel Volcarona was dying!
Wait, wait, maybe Volcarona will fall.
It's worth the price to pay for releasing some Pokemon.
After staring at Natsu with cannibalistic eyes, she stopped using the consumption tactic, but started using the injury-to-injury method to speed up Volcarona's consumption.
Natsu and Dragapult naturally saw something wrong with Volcarona's state.
There was no other way but to speed up the attack.
But don't say, although Courtney's strength is not very strong, tactical understanding is still up to the mark, must drag her hard, even at the expense of Pokemon, even Dragapult has not been able to do it for a long time.
After all, it takes rest to hang yourself, and it takes time to beat Pokemon.
Courtney was a race against time, betting she couldn't defend first or Volcarona couldn't defend first.
However.
One thing she didn't realize was.
This Volcarona is not the fish on the cutting board.
Though.
He's exhausted right now.
"dng ling líng—"
With a loud sound, as Volcarona's wings flapped, a piece of crystal powder fell from his wings, and between each other, the Collision made a pleasant sound like glass crashing.
bang! !
The raging flames spread rapidly on his body, until the crimson gold flames covered his entire body.
"Fiery Dance!"
Natsu saw Volcarona's movement and couldn't help but mention the name of this movement.
Throughout the Pokémon world, there are moves that only Volcarona can learn and use, which are similar to the exclusive move, Fiery Dance!
Each time it is used, there is a greater chance of getting an increase in special attacks.
Volcarona must have used "Fiery Dance" several times before this, but due to exhaustion, Volcarona didn't show the attitude that "Fiery Dance" should have.
But now.
Volcarona, who sensed Courtney's intent, realized the other party's thoughts, and tried his best to gather all the energy in her body to perform the "Fiery Dance"!
Like a Pokemon jumping into flames, all the flames around it swayed and flickered under Volcarona's dance, as if inspired to respond to its master.
And when Courtney saw Volcarona's "Fiery Dance", her heart finally shook.
Dragapult paused involuntarily and stared blankly at Volcarona, who was dancing in the flames, emitting the last light and heat, and sadness swept over her heart.
Volcarona ignored his own circumstances, he was too much of a burden on his life.
Dragapult didn't support Volcarona's choice, but she understood.
No companion and endless loneliness fills the heart. Is it necessary for such a world to continue to live and carry on bringing light and heat?
Fiery Dance this time, huh.
The last dance!
Whoosh-
With a flick of Volcarona's six wings, the flames that enveloped Volcarona's body and the burning flames around him all moved towards the hiding Courtney. sweep the sky and cover the earth.
This is a sea of fire.
Courtney's complexion was pale, facing Volcarona's final blow, she finally felt the power gap between herself and Volcarona.
But now, Natsu and Dragapult's attention wasn't on Courtney.
But.
Volcarona, who ended the last Fiery Dance, fell slowly from the sky like a kite with a severed string.
In fact, from Volcarona's desperate release of light and heat, even at the expense of exhaustion, Natsu had realized that Volcarona might have begged for death.
Maybe, before sleeping and turning into a cocoon, he had thought about ending this lonely life.
But did not expect, and will wake up.
Due to the energy supplied by Groudon's Primal Carapace Fragment, he endured until now, and was finally awakened by Natsu.
When he wakes up, he calls out to his group with last hope.
But the results are often more heartbreaking.
So he chose to let out the last heat, dance the proudest dance, defeat the same foe, and end his life.
Bang!
Natsu in the Noivern reacted the fastest, running towards Volcarona at the end of the Fiery Dance.
In the process of his downfall, Volcarona was captured first with Psychic.
Dragapult also appears right next to Natsu.
Her eyes were full of sadness, and she saw herself in Volcarona's body.
Perhaps, without Natsu's encouragement and support, she might have made the same choice as Volcarona, hundreds or even thousands of years of loneliness, too long and too long "Bart Asia"
'He will die'
Natsu gestured for the Noivern to drop them to the ground and, listening to Dragapult's words, shouted at her without the slightest hesitation.
"He can't die!"
Dragapult stared blankly at Natsu who was screaming to herself, and continued to take out many Potions and Items from his backpack.
The eye sockets are a little blurry.
"Not yet," repeated Natsu.
Potions, Traits, and even the precious "Dragon's Saliva" were used without the slightest hesitation.
Volcarona can't die yet.
At least, not until he made a profit.
Otherwise, isn't all this a waste of time?
Is this Natsu's character who likes to reap the rewards?
If Dragapult knew what was on Natsu's mind, she would wipe away her tears and send him Draco's Meteor.
But the fact is.
Natsu's singing and constant self-hypnosis wasn't the kind of comfort to allow himself to use a lot of Items and materials "at ease".
A big "bad guy" always needs a reason to make him feel good about his efforts without expecting anything in return. Otherwise, how could he be worthy of being called a "bad guy"?
Typical hard-mouthed and soft-hearted person.
Dragapult promised to help.
Did Volcarona die in the end, is that an advantage?
So, Volcarona can't die!
