"I didn't expect Sato's first Pokémon to be Hydreigon! Is he trying to give Lance a show of force?"
In the stands, Flint watched Hydreigon and Kingdra face off with an excited expression, half his body practically leaning out over the railing.
Volkner grabbed his belt with a dark expression and yanked him back. He was already an Elite Four Trainer—how could he still be so reckless?
Then, the battle began!
Kingdra was the first to use Agility. Although there was no water on the field, it did not hinder its movements in the slightest. A distinct trail of water was left wherever it passed.
On the other side, Hydreigon launched a fierce assault without hesitation.
It hovered in the very center of the arena, its three heads turning evenly, allowing it to see the entire battlefield clearly.
Then... Frantic, Frantic Dragon Breath! Under Agility, Kingdra was accelerating wildly around the field.
But the next second, a yellow-green Dragon Breath suddenly Appeared On its only path!
Slow down, turn!
Kingdra narrowly avoided the Dragon Breath, but the next second, another extremely fast Dragon Breath had already struck toward it again?
After all, it had three heads—its Skill Connection was absurdly fast! No way, Kingdra could only rely on the tough physical quality of a Dragon-type Pokémon and twist its body again.
When the third Dragon Breath arrived in front of Kingdra ahead of time once more, it decisively gave up on maintaining Agility. Instead, it raised its head toward the sky as though praying for something. "Moo!!!"
Bang! A bovine growl rang out, only for it to be viciously struck by the incoming Dragon Breath! Kingdra flew backwards, while Hydreigon in the Air showed no intention of stopping.
Dragon Breath! Dark Pulse! Dragon Pulse!
The three attacks struck toward Kingdra
