บท 349: Injuries
Observing the enraged Exploud, Florges and Absol immediately decided to take the initiative. Countless Magical Leaf transformed into blades, mixed with Absol's Psycho Cuts, and were directed at Exploud.
However, the furious Exploud countered with a pillar-shaped Supersonic created by its loud cry, shattering Florges's Magical Leaf and Absol's Psycho Cuts. Without losing momentum, it charged towards Absol.
Florges used a familiar strategy, using her vines to fling Absol away. However, since both of them were in a straight line, and Absol was no longer blocking the way, it was thrown aside as well.
The Grassy Terrain instantly came into play, radiating a green light that covered Florges. Simultaneously, a pink beam of light descended upon Florges, significantly improving her condition.
This pink beam was the effect of a skill called Wish, which Florges had recently awakened.
While Absol dealt with Exploud, it had secretly employed this move. Otherwise, it wouldn't have dared to unreservedly shield Absol from Exploud's deafening attack.
And without the support of the Grassy Terrain, Florges likely wouldn't have survived long enough for Wish to take effect. Truly, pseudo-Elite Pokémon were terrifying.
In contrast to Florges and Absol, who were struggling on their side, the Great Flygon, having successfully executed Dragon Dance, launched a relentless assault on Shiftry, who was equipped with its own Sunny Day and Chlorophyll abilities.
The powerful physical attributes of Dragon-type Pokémon, combined with its slightly superior potentials, allowed the Great Flygon to hold its own against Shiftry.
Having completed Dragon Dance in mid-air, the Great Flygon seamlessly transitioned into Dragon Rush, preparing to dive down like a cannonball from the sky straight onto Shiftry. Its speed made it impossible for Shiftry to evade.
The impact of the Great Flygon's Dragon Rush created a massive crater instantly.
After precisely striking Shiftry, the Great Flygon swiftly ascended into the sky and released a Flamethrower toward the still smoky crater below.
While the Great Flygon wasn't skilled in special attacks, the power of its flames, combined with Shiftry' Sunny Day boost, made them formidable.
The scorching flames dispersed the lingering smoke, revealing a battered Shiftry emerging from the crater, covered in soot and burn marks.
Did it just dig its own grave?
However, being a pseudo-Elite, even after consecutive hits from Dragon Rush and a Flamethrower, Shiftry remained standing.
"Great Flygon, use Rock Slide!" Yuga believed that the best way to deal with Shiftry, a Pokémon with exceptional close combat abilities, was to keep it at a distance.
After all, who could fly like them?
With Yuga's command, several boulders appeared in mid-air above Shiftry and rained down on it.
Shiftry, extending the green leaf-like appendages on its hands, rapidly elongated them, transforming them into sharp blades that sliced through the descending boulders, reducing them to fragments without causing any harm.
X-Scissor skillfully resolved the crisis!
On the other side, due to the difference in strength, both Absol and Florges found themselves in jeopardy.
Despite Florges's control over numerous vines, effectively blocking Exploud's movements, Exploud effortlessly broke free. At this point, Exploud was dangerously close to Florges.
Florges's movement speed wasn't fast, and she was about to be hit by Exploud's Flame Fang when a golden lightning bolt struck Exploud, causing it to emit a piercing scream.
It turned out that just when it was crucial, Dragonair had arrived.
Mastery over manipulating lightning, Dragonair found it easy to handle a group of not-so-strong Fearow, or it would have ended the battle sooner if there weren't so many Fearow.
Taking advantage of Exploud's momentary distraction due to pain, Dragonair immediately used Dragon Tail to send Exploud, now only a short distance from Florges, flying.
Exploud rolled on the ground several times and hadn't even climbed back to its feet when Absol, already prepared on the side, swiftly struck its face with a Sucker Punch.
It seems that Exploud got its eyes scratched by Absol's claws. After crawling back to its feet, Exploud covered its eyes with both hands, constantly screaming. It's a real "seeing is heartbreaking, hearing is tearful" moment!
However, Exploud's hearing is extremely keen. Even though it can't see, it can still locate its target through sound. It accurately found Dragonair's position and unleashed a Boomburst directly.
But Dragonair's speed is nothing to scoff at. In an instant, it dodged the Boomburst like lightning and shot an Thunder Wave, successfully paralyzing Exploud.
With Exploud immobilized due to the Thunder Wave, it was in grave danger.
Florges's Moonblast, Absol's Psycho Cuts, and Dragonair's Thunderbolt, all came crashing down on Exploud, one after the other, as if it were raining attacks.
This Exploud had the worst luck. Every time it tried to move or counterattack, it was unfortunate enough to be obstructed by the pervasive golden electric currents on its body.
Despite being a pseudo-Elite, Exploud couldn't withstand the relentless onslaught from three exceptionally gifted Pokémon, and it eventually fell to the ground in defeat.
However, by this point, both Florges and Absol were in a sorry state, even with the Grassy Terrain aiding their stamina. Their disheveled appearance couldn't be hidden.
Motohara, who was directing Shiftry to deal with the Great Flygon, couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Exploud defeated. He even forgot to give orders to Shiftry in his astonishment.
Taking advantage of Motohara's momentary lapse, Yuga said to the Great Flygon, "Great Flygon, Dragon Rush!"
Hearing this, the Great Flygon folded its wings in mid-air and, with an unstoppable momentum, dove towards the now-vulnerable Shiftry. Its speed left Shiftry with no chance to escape.
Regaining his composure, Motohara saw that Shiftry was undoubtedly about to be defeated. He immediately ordered Shiftry, "Shiftry, use Explosion!"
Yuga had never expected that the Shiftry before him could perform Explosion, and he had no time to react.
Shiftry triggered a self-destructive explosion that generated a thick cloud of smoke, engulfing the approaching Great Flygon and Yuga, who wasn't far away.
In the midst of the smoke, Yuga felt like his organs were about to shatter. He couldn't hold back and spewed a mouthful of blood, while Wigglytuff collapsed beside him, already unconscious.
At a critical moment, if Wigglytuff hadn't used its Protect skill in time, Yuga would have been reduced to a pile of bones.
However, even with Protect skill activated, Wigglytuff had fainted, and Yuga himself had suffered severe injuries from the powerful impact.
Outside the smoke, Motohara's arrogant laughter could be heard.
"Haha... Haha... Now let's see if you can survive this!"
When the smoke finally cleared, both the Great Flygon and Shiftry lay motionless in the crater created by the explosion. It was evident that they had lost their combat capabilities. Even the heavily injured Shiftry had questionable chances of survival.
