On the battlefield, the referee stood tall, vigorously waving the small flag in his hand as he loudly and clearly announced the result: "Darkrai has lost the ability to battle. Contestant Darkrai, please recall Darkrai and send out your next Pokémon..."
With the referee's announcement, the entire venue instantly erupted as if a bomb had exploded among the crowd. Deafening cheers and shouts intertwined, bursting through the whole arena.
"Poliwrath! Poliwrath! Poliwrath..." The audience chanted in unison, their voices coming wave after wave.
Quite a few Veteran Trainers in the audience had thoroughly investigated Yu Hai before the match and knew that his ace was Poliwrath.
Now that they had seen Poliwrath defeat Darkrai with absolute strength and overwhelming power, they could no longer contain their excitement and exhilaration, shouting to their hearts' content.
"Contestant Darkrai has lost Darkrai for the first time. What kind of Pokémon will he send out next? Will Contestant Darkrai's third Pokémon in this tournament also be a Legendary Pokémon?"
Standing at the commentary booth, the host raised the microphone and asked the entire audience, his eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation, further igniting the tense and fiery atmosphere.
"Come back, Darkrai." Darkrai's hands trembled slightly, and his face looked utterly awful. He had fought his way through countless opponents with Darkrai all along.
But now, this powerful Pokémon had lost to a Poliwrath—and with just one punch, it had been completely defeated. The sudden loss left him unwilling and frustrated.
When he thought of his remaining Pokémon facing such a powerful Poliwrath, he had no idea whether they could withstand it.
But he had no other choice. Gritting his teeth, he forced himself to take out a Poké Ball and throw it hard. "Go, Latios..."
"It's Latios! Contestant Darkrai's third Pokémon is actually Latios?"
