Z-Move Makes Its Debut!

Smack! Hissss...

Toxic began frantically corroding Primarina's body, and the intense pain made it furrow its brow tightly.

Yet the blue ripples of Hyper Voice grew considerably stronger under the stimulation.

The next moment, Gengar was directly shaken out by Hyper Voice and forced to retreat along the direction the sound waves spread.

A Normal-type Hyper Voice attack had dealt direct damage to the Ghost-type Gengar! Sato frowned, suddenly recalling that Primarina seemed to possess another exclusive Hidden Ability.

Liquid Voice turned Sound-based Moves into Water-type moves! Sound-based attacks often covered an enormous range and could even pass through a Substitute to directly damage a Pokemon's main body.

For Ghost-type Pokemon, a Water-type Hyper Voice was undoubtedly an excellent means of breaking their invisibility.

Type-wise, the Poison-type Gengar held a slight advantage, but Primarina could use its Hidden Ability to seal off the invisibility that Ghost-type Pokemon relied on so heavily.

The first Pokemon sent out was often the result of an invisible contest between Trainers.

At the very least, the Fairy-type Primarina would not be at a disadvantage against most of Sato's Dark Type Pokemon.

Sato had likewise chosen Gengar as his lead in case Zhi Mi sent out a Pokemon that countered Dark Type Pokemon.

He simply had not expected Primarina to possess an Ability-based advantage over Ghost-type Pokemon as well.

"Gengar, Venoshock!"

"Primarina, Hydro Pump!"

Venoshock posed a tremendous threat to already poisoned Pokemon, but such a straightforward ranged attack was also easy to block.

Zhi Mi showed no mercy as he commanded Primarina to fire Hydro Pump, directly breaking through Venoshock.

Fortunately, Gengar was agile enough. Otherwise, it would have had a hard time avoiding the remaining force of Hydro Pump.

Venoshock could only double in power after hitting an opponent and reacting with the toxins
