"Crack, crack."

Dragon Tail Scorpion's whole face twisted in agony as its body slid backward uncontrollably, its feet carving two deep tracks into the ground.

Dragon Tail Scorpion came to a stop. It had blocked Heracross's Horn Attack.

The energy shockwaves around them kicked up a cloud of dust.
