Are Geniuses Always This Unreasonable?

Dongye was deeply frustrated. In terms of strength, he was no weaker than most of the people who had advanced, but when it came to tactics and in-battle reactions, he was no match for Sato.

That was why Sato had beaten him down again and again, leaving him unable to bring out all his strength.

Nightmare plus Dream Eater would not only make Blaziken suffer a terrifying nightmare, but would also leave it unable to remember the dream after waking, with only the fear
