Cleaving Rhyperior with a Blade

The ground was still wet from the rain in the previous match, and Rhyperior carved deep tracks through the mud.

Rhyperior wore an expression of extreme pain. Water-type attacks countered it far too heavily.

That blow had dealt it effective damage.

After firing Water Cannon, Golisopod raised its arms, pushed off with its feet, and charged rapidly toward Rhyperior.

Rhyperior had only just climbed up from the ground when it faced Golisopod's attack.

Eichi thought it over and decided Water Cannon was still more useful. There was no need to go through the trouble of using other moves that might not even work.

Golisopod opened its mouth and fired another enormous
