Tornado Destroys Parking Lot? No, It's Tornado Destroys Parking Lot!

After evolving, Incineroar went from walking on all fours to standing upright. The muscles of his upper body became especially pronounced, and his thick forepaws grew as long as an ape's arms. His broad palms were like cattail fans, and a single slap could even knock an enemy unconscious.

Red mane extended out to either side of his face, which was wrapped in pitch-black fur. The long markings on his head had shortened, while the red brows on his forehead connected with the markings to form a crimson king character.

A blue scarf was tied around his neck, making it obvious at a glance that he was a house cat.

The Flame Bag beneath Incineroar's neck had disappeared, replaced by an orange-red belt that resembled burning fire.

When Incineroar's Fighting Spirit intensified, the flames produced within his body would burst from his navel and its surroundings, reaching temperatures above 2,000 degrees Celsius. These flames looked like a championship belt, hence the name Flame Belt.

A third-stage evolution for a Starter meant a leap in strength. Incineroar, who had been helpless against Garganacl before evolving, now wore a taunting expression. A trace of mockery appeared on his fiercer tiger-like face as the muscles in his arms swelled with blood. Pressing his palms together, he directly caught the blade barehanded!

To Su Hao, Incineroar's evolution was an unexpected delight. But even in reality, evolution would not restore expended stamina.

Incineroar had very little stamina left. He had to defeat his opponent quickly!

"He evolved?" Jie Wei was somewhat stunned.

"But even after evolving, he's still at the end of his rope."

"Garganacl, use Sacred Sword!"

Garganacl's expression turned grave. He discarded the Razor Shell clamped by Incineroar, forcefully kicked off with his lower body, and rapidly flew backward to distance himself from Incineroar.

After widening the gap, Garganacl drew a second Razor Shell from the bracer on his other side and used the Sacred Sword move.

"Garganacl—!" Garganacl roared furiously.

Brilliant golden Sword Light formed atop the Razor Shell. Garganacl was no longer as calm as before.

To him, a Razor Shell was equivalent to a swordsman's dignity. Being forced to throw one away was the same as abandoning his own dignity.

Since he had already abandoned that dignity, then at the very least, he had to win this battle!

Unmatchedly Sharp Sword Intent rose once more. Gambling his dignity as a swordsman, Garganacl was determined to defeat Incineroar... no, Incineroar!

The spectators, commentator, and referee all stared with wide eyes, not daring to blink. They knew that this strike would decide the victor!

Gripping the Razor Shell with both claws, Garganacl leaped from the ground with an unstoppable resolve and slashed toward Incineroar.

Even though Incineroar had evolved into Incineroar, Su Hao's Aura Resonance remained connected to him.

What Su Hao thought was what Incineroar thought.

Darkest Lariat!

Also known as Tornado Destroys Parking Lot!

Crimson light suddenly flared from Incineroar's palms, transforming once again into two dazzling golden stars.

Then, the stars turned into sparks, igniting in Incineroar's palms!

But that was not all. The moment flames ignited from Incineroar's tiger paws, he began spinning his body. In the blink of an eye, he became a crimson Flame Vortex.

Spinning at high speed, Incineroar whipped up fierce winds, scattering rubble all around. It swept across the battlefield enclosed by the Energy Shield.

The Flame Vortex that Incineroar had become charged at Garganacl, carrying wind and shattered stones with it!

"Boom—"

Garganacl was above, Incineroar below. The brilliant golden Sacred Sword collided with the crimson Flame Vortex, triggering a violent explosion!

Sand and stones shattered and flung away by the collision's aftershock continuously struck the barrier before the stands, drawing cries of alarm.

"Crack—."

A crisp cracking sound came from the point of impact.

The continuously spinning Flame Vortex gradually transformed into a massive Fire Tornado, while the golden Sacred Sword could no longer hold on. The energy-forged blade slowly shattered.

Without the Sacred Sword to block it, the Fire Tornado formed by Incineroar gradually shrank. The Flame Vortex within slammed viciously into Garganacl, blasting him away!

Garganacl's body flew backward at tremendous speed before crashing directly into the Energy Shield at the edge of the battlefield, Out of Battle.

"Graaah!!"

Seeing Garganacl completely lose consciousness, Incineroar stood on both feet in the arena and could not help throwing back his head in a roar, venting the excitement in his heart!

"Ooooooh!!"

"Incineroar is fucking awesome!"

"So cool!! I want to raise a Litten too!!"

Thunderous cheers erupted from the stands. Su Hao let out a breath of relief and was just about to use his own eyes to look at Incineroar after his evolution.

Suddenly, the Aura Resonance connection broke. Incineroar, who had been standing there roaring, also fell silent.

"Huh—?"

Su Hao hurried toward the center of the arena. There, Incineroar remained standing in a roaring pose amid the thoroughly wrecked battlefield, unconscious!

The referee rode Aegislash over to Incineroar. Seeing the scene before him, he widened his eyes in astonishment.

As a Pokémon League-certified referee, his mental fortitude was naturally excellent. He quickly composed himself, nodded at Su Hao, and announced, "Garganacl and Incineroar have both been declared Out of Battle!"

Incineroar stood there unconscious.
