Capítulo 483: The Menacing Hydreigon
For Grant, encountering the level that proved to be his Waterloo was not as challenging for Yuga as he had anticipated.
Undoubtedly, these two Rain Dance-boosted Pokémon coordinated their efforts skillfully and demonstrated excellent teamwork. However, against Pokémon that relied on tactics like Vivillon and Chimecho, dealing with them was relatively easier for both Vivillon and Chimecho.
The Swift Swim Ludicolo, benefiting from its Swift Swim ability in the rain, exhibited remarkable speed and increased attack prowess. It posed a significant threat to most Pokémon, but not to Chimecho, a Psychic-type Pokémon with exceptional abilities.
Confronted by the cheerful Ludicolo, which hopped around happily, Chimecho efficiently neutralized its advantage with a single Skill Swap, rendering it ineffective.
This Skill Swap, learned by Chimecho and Mismagius, it was acquired after the fusion with Deoxys's energy core. Following this fusion, Chimecho's Psychic abilities became unparalleled among Psychic-types. Learning Psychic moves was a breeze for her, making her the most versatile Pokémon in Yuga's lineup.
Chimecho didn't exchange her Levitate ability for Swift Swim; it wouldn't make sense since Levitate was essential for her aerial mobility. Instead, she swapped Ludicolo's Swift Swim ability with Vivillon, allowing Vivillon to make the most benefit of Pelipper's Drizzle ability.
The trade left Ludicolo bewildered as the Drizzle ability served no purpose for it. There was no doubt that they were outmatched in the battle.
As the journey through the tower continued, both Vivillon and Chimecho grew more confident and resilient. Being two of the Flower Field Sisters, their coordination was impeccable.
Yuga successfully passed 50 levels, reaching the 51st floor. By this point, the other contestant, Marlon, had been halted at the 44th floor, while Viola was still struggling on the 42nd.
Marlon specialized in Water-type Pokémon, which allowed him to easily defeat the level 41 and 42 Guardians, which consisted of Nidoking, Nidoqueen, and the Swift Swim Ludicolo. Facing Water-type Pokémon was his strong suit, and it presented no significant challenge.
However, on the 44th floor, he encountered a pair of Meowstic, Psychic-type Pokémon known for their incredible teamwork. These twins, a male and a female, had an exceptional synergy, surpassing even the coordination seen between Gardevoir and Gallade on the 50th floor.
As for Viola, her situation was more unfortunate. She was a Bug-type Trainer and had no Pokémon like Chimecho that could adapt to different situations effectively. Confronted with the aggressive onslaught of Arcanine on the 42nd floor, she found herself overwhelmed, unable to fight back.
Among the remaining contestants, Marlon had long since exited the competition as per the expected outcome. Only Viola was still in the tower, enduring her challenging ordeal. This left Yuga as the last man standing.
After facing more than ten consecutive challenges, Vivillon and Chimecho showed signs of fatigue. Therefore, before moving on from the 50th floor, Yuga decided to recall both Pokémon to their Poké Balls. He was uncertain about the challenges that awaited on the 51st floor.
Upon reaching the 51st floor, Yuga noticed the room's floor splitting apart. Subsequently, a menacing Pokémon emerged.
As it entered the battle room, this Pokémon spread its wings, hovering in mid-air with its six dark eyes fixated on Yuga.
Only one Pokémon appeared, and no second Guardian followed. Nevertheless, even the presence of this lone Pokémon was enough to leave Yuga awestruck.

...
Indeed, standing before Yuga was a Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon unique to the Unova Region, Hydreigon. Notably, this one had an Blue Potential, and one step away from pseudo-Elite level.
Generally, the evolution level for a Hydreigon was quite high, typically at level 64. However, this particular one evolved before level 60. Yuga suspected that the League must have a special method to facilitate early evolutions for Hydreigon.
However, this time Yuga's guess was entirely off the mark. This Hydreigon originated from the Unova Region's Village of Dragon, the very place where Master Matriarch resided. Its ability to evolve prematurely was attributed to the unique power of Village of Dragon called Dragon Force.
Seeing Yuga staring at it without taking any action for quite some time, Hydreigon, known for its impatience and true to its name, let out an angry roar.
This time, the battle wasn't a Double Battle. The recent hint suggested that Yuga should use one Pokémon to defeat Hydreigon in front of him.
Seeing Hydreigon growing impatient, Yuga quickly released his Pokémon, Florges.
When dealing with a Dark and Dragon-type Hydreigon, there was no better choice than a Fairy-type like Florges. Both of Hydreigon types was restrained by Florges type.
As soon as Florges entered the field, Yuga's first command was for her to create a Misty Terrain. Florges, often cast in the role of a Grass-type Pokémon, was now reclaiming the dignity of a Fairy-type Pokémon.
The pink mist dispersed across the entire battle room, resembling dry ice on a stage, and soon covered the entire area. Hydreigon, sensing the uncomfortable presence of Fairy-type energy, snorted in annoyance. It then unleashed a Dark Pulse toward Florges.
Indeed, Dark-type moves were not ideal for Florges. However, this Hydreigon was exceptionally proud, preferring to use its well-practiced Dark-type moves over other types. In the face of the incoming black, ring-shaped energy, Florges remained composed. Suddenly, a silver crescent moon appeared behind her, and Fairy-type energy rapidly gathered. Subsequently, a silvery beam of energy collided with the Dark Pulse, with both moves appearing evenly matched.
While Florges might have been outmatched in terms of level, the immunity of Fairy-types against Dragon-types held firm. Hydreigon was unable to utilize its Dragon-type moves due to Florges's resistance, combined with the presence of the Misty Terrain.
In the real world, attribute immunities do exist. Whether it's Dark against Psychic, Steel against Poison, or Fairy against Dragon, if the difference in strength is too vast, these attribute immunities will broken.
If Florges was facing an Elite level Hydreigon at this moment, let alone multiple layers of Misty Terrain, when confronted with Dragon-type moves from Hydreigon, Florges would still be at a severe disadvantage.
The type immunities between Florges, with only a few level differences, and Hydreigon would remain unbreakable.
Florges's use of the Misty Terrain wasn't intended to weaken Hydreigon's Dragon-type moves, as it was naturally immune to them. Instead, it was meant to disrupt Hydreigon's temperamental disposition.
Hydreigons were inherently short-tempered, and when surrounded by the Fairy-type energy they detested, their emotions and thoughts would be disturbed, tipping the situation in favor of Florges.
Of course, the Misty Terrain also effectively prevented Hydreigon from inflicting status conditions through moves like Tri-Attack.
