Unless Articuno's beam is strong enough to explode and break Thunderbolt, it will be a continuous battle, and Electivire will have the advantage.
"Thunder!" Xiao Mao commanded, pointing to the sky.
"Whoa!!"
The Electrified Beast shot a bolt of lightning towards the dark clouds in the sky.
"What! You can do it even in snowy weather...!" Dara exclaimed in surprise.
Thunder is a move that can hit the opponent 100% of the time on rainy days. Actually, it doesn't rely on the rain, but on the clouds. As long as there are enough dense clouds in the sky above the field, Electric-type Pokémon can make Thunder hit the opponent 100% of the time.
Wow!
Electivire raised its hand, golden arcs of electricity flashing on it, and then swung it down.
Boom! !
A bolt of lightning appeared first, followed by a deafening roar. (bbcj)
"Aww!!"
The lightning struck so fast that Articuno had no chance to dodge and was hit by it, its entire body bathed in golden lightning.
The clouds above the chimney also dissipated at this moment. The snowy weather disappeared, not automatically, but because the Articuno saw the thunder and dispersed the snowy weather.
Articuno survived two attacks but did not fall. It spread its wings and tried to fly into the sky.
"Don't let Articuno fly, use Electric Shock!" Shigeru commanded.
"Whoa!!"
Electivire unleashed a torrent of electricity, shooting out bolts of power that blocked Articuno's entire path.
“Use Feather Perch!” Dara shouted.
Articuno immediately landed on the ground and used Roost to recover its strength. Its whole body was bathed in healing energy. Although its injuries were healing, it could not move during the recovery period.
The electric current struck the frozen bird.
"Ouch...!" Articuno endured the pain and the electric shock.
Electivire has an incredibly high electrical storage capacity. It stores its electricity by waiting for thunderstorms to absorb the electricity from lightning strikes.
However, Articuno still withstood the electric discharge. Articuno has the highest dual defenses among the three legendary birds, with its special defense being the most outstanding.
"Awoo...!"
After enduring the electric shock, Articuno was about to take flight into the sky. Just as it was about to spread its wings, its body was flashed with arcs of electricity, and it suddenly froze.
"What!" Dara was stunned.
The Articuno was paralyzed.
"Good opportunity, use Thunder Fist!" Shigeru commanded.
Electivire ran quickly toward Articuno.
"Articuno, use Ice Beam!" Dara immediately countered.
Although Articuno felt intense paralysis, it relied on its past experience to begin mobilizing its ice-type energy, and cold light began to emerge from its beak, but the cold light condensed very slowly.
"Whoa!!"
In the blink of an eye, Electivire arrived in front of Articuno and threw a punch crackling with golden lightning.
The energy in the Articuno's beak had only just begun to condense.
Bah! !
The Thunder Punch struck Articuno in the chest, sending it flying ten meters away.
After Articuno was hit by the Thunder Punch, the energy in its mouth dissipated, and its body flew backward, crashing to the ground with its eyes spinning in circles.
"Articuno is unable to battle; Electivire wins," the referee declared.
"What a powerful Electivire..." Dara recalled Articuno, marveling at Electivire's strength.
Dara took a fairy from his waist and threw it out.
"Venusaur, I'm begging you again."
Baton!
"Ba na".
Venusaur returned to the battle, still covered in frost marks, indicating it was frostbitten.
478: Shigeru vs. Dara (2)
Dala sent out Venusaur, clearly to make the most of its resources, and as a Grass-type Pokémon, Venusaur has high resistance to Electric-type moves.
"Electrify Beast, continue fighting. Use Dig," Gary commanded.
Boom! !
Electivire spun its body and slammed into the ground. The ground became very soft in front of Electivire, and it burrowed into the ground without any trouble.
Seeing this, Dara was overjoyed and immediately ordered, "Quick! Use Earthquake!"
"Okay!"
When Venusaur saw Electivire digging a hole, it wanted to use it. Now it was ready, raising its forelegs and stomping the ground, sending out shockwaves.
The field shook violently, and the ground in the center of the field broke.
"Whoa!!"
The Electrified Beast was jolted up and suffered severe damage.
"Holy crap, I was careless!!"
Xiao Mao never expected that Dara's Venusaur would cause an earthquake.
"If I ever encounter a Pokémon that can control earthquakes again, I'll be a dog if I dig a hole again," Gary thought to himself.
"Venusaur, use Energy Ball." Dara, seizing the opportunity, immediately launched an attack.
Venusaur quickly condensed an energy ball in its mouth and spat it towards Electivire.
As soon as Electivire stood up, Gary quickly commanded, "Use Light Screen."
The electric monster spread its palms, forming a wall of light.
The energy ball landed on the light wall.
Boom! !
The energy ball exploded, and the Electrified Beast was blasted away, crashing to the ground, unable to stand up this time.
"Electivire is unable to battle, Venusaur wins!" the referee announced.
Careless!!
Xiao Mao pursed his lips and recalled the Electabuzz.
"Ice Sprite, you go."
Xiao Mao sent out the Ice Sprite again, returning to the starting point once more.
"Venusaur, Energy Ball!" Dara immediately launched an attack.
Venusaur gathers an energy ball and shoots it out.
Seeing the incoming energy ball, Xiao Mao commanded, "Ignore it, use Snowscape."
The Ice Sprite ignored the energy ball and used Snowscape, causing gray clouds to gather again above the chimney.
Boom! !
The energy ball exploded after hitting the Ice Sprite, but most of the damage was blocked by the light wall left by the Electivire.
"Let's settle this once and for all, Blizzard!" Shigeru commanded.
"Ice!!"
The ice sprite unleashed a blizzard that swept across the entire area.
Unable to dodge, Dara had no choice but to confront it head-on, and shouted, "Venusaur, use Petal Dance!"
"Okay!"
Venusaur manipulates the energy of plants to condense pink petals, transforming them into a cherry blossom storm that sweeps forward.
Blizzard and Petal Dance clashed fiercely. Blizzard crushed Petal Dance, forcing it to retreat. A cold wind blew in, and Venusaur, already frostbitten, was attacked by an Ice-type move again, taking increased damage.
"Okay!"
Venusaur let out a painful cry, its body lost all strength, its limbs went limp, and it lay on the ground, its eyes rolling around.
"Venusaur is unable to battle, Glaceon wins!" the referee announced.
"Ice Sprite, well done!" Xiao Mao praised.
"Ice!"
The ice sprite responded with a triumphant raise of its head.
Although Glaceon was one of the first Pokémon Gary caught, he never used it in gym battles or public tournaments. When it was still Eevee, he only used it to battle against random players.
After that, it was placed in Professor Oak's lab, where it carried out the training arranged by Gary every day and would spar with Gary's other Pokémon occasionally.
Ice Elf is quite excited to be assigned to this role by Xiao Mao, and hopes to shut out Dara without a score.
"Venusaur, come back."
Dara recalled Venusaur, then took out a Poké Ball from his pocket. The Pokémon inside was naturally Helios, Dara's last Pokémon and the highest-level Pokémon in all of Dara's Pokémon.
"Only one Pokémon left. Let's settle this once and for all. Go, Kairos!" Dara threw out a Poké Ball.
Baton!
【LV64 Kairos♂/Champion】
"Kai Si!"
When Keiros appeared, he deliberately shook the two large horns on his head to emphasize his power.
