"Duosion is unable to battle!"
As the Rotom Referee raised its flag.
"Therefore, the winner is Jing He!"
This battle with Bonnie had officially come to an end.
The final result.
Was that Jing He had defeated Hoenn's Ice-type Elite Four Bonnie at the "cost" of Ceruledge!
Although Ceruledge had not completely lost consciousness beneath the burning Life Fire, it was more or less done for.
It would no longer be able to take the field against Drake.
"Congratulations, Jing He." Bonnie recalled her last Duosion and offered her congratulations with a smile.
Jing He, on the other hand, wore a bitter expression.
Honestly.
Although he had long known about the "icy explosion" tactic, he truly had not expected Elite Four Bonnie to be so decisive. She had not even given Mega Glalie much of a chance to battle before directly using Explosion.
After all, Mega Glalie was Elite Four Bonnie's Ace Pokémon, unquestionably Champion-level in strength.
Wouldn't normal people want to use the power of their Ace Pokémon to take down a few more of the opponent's Pokémon, or even turn the battle around?
It had been too decisive, too sudden.
That tactic was like something Chakra, one of Team Rocket's Three Beast Warriors, would use.
However.
It was precisely because of that that Elite Four Bonnie had caught Jing He off guard.
Otherwise, the longer the battle dragged on, the more guarded Jing He would become.
Once Mega Glalie was truly low on stamina, Jing He would definitely be on high alert, wary of Explosion.
"Elite Four Bonnie really is... full of 'surprises.'"
Bonnie smiled sweetly. "I originally thought I could see more from you. Now it seems I'm still quite a ways behind."
Jing He could not help shaking his head.
There was no need for that.
