Qing Wu did not have many powerful Pokémon at hand. At present, he only had a few: Golbat was level 37, Kecleon was level ?, and Magmar was level ?. The rest of his Pokémon had yet to be trained.
Because Kecleon could not fight too much at the moment, Qing Wu sent Golbat and Magmar out.
"Golbat, you'll fight Crawdaunt. Be careful not to get hit by it," Qing Wu shouted to Golbat. Golbat flapped its wings and acknowledged the command.

Crawdaunt stepped forward with a violent temper. Its two enormous pincers opened wide. The left pincer used Bubble Beam, while the right used Water Gun.
Water Gun and Bubble Beam collided, producing countless bubbles.
Crawdaunt's figure vanished beneath the bubbles.
"Golbat, use Hurricane! Magmar, use Flamethrower!" This was a double battle. With the support of Hurricane, Flamethrower's power doubled in size.

It was not just Crawdaunt and Kingler. Even Kingler and Corphish had buried themselves deep in the sand, constantly swimming beneath the ground like sharks in the sand.
The shifting sand provided the perfect cover. Even Vine Snake's Leaf Storm lost much of its power when obstructed by the sand.
Crawdaunt and Kingler occasionally thrust their huge pincers
