The two remaining Mimikyu simultaneously unleashed Shadow Claw, batting away the blobs of venom one by one.
But...
Terrifying poisonous gas spread through the air.
After the toxic rain stopped, both Mimikyu twisted and transformed, their Disguises falling away.
That was a sign of injury.
"They've been poisoned..." Roy judged.
Mimikyu had clearly defended perfectly against the Sludge Bomb assault, yet they had still been poisoned through the air.
This Toxicroak's mastery of Poison-type energy was extremely terrifying... If Roy was right, this Toxicroak's Ability should be Poison Touch.
In other words, an Ability that could poison an opponent through physical contact.
After deeply developing its Poison Touch Ability, Toxicroak had raised the spreading power of all its Poison-type moves to an astonishing level.
"Poison Jab."
Toxicroak crouched again, displaying another astonishing frog leap.
In an instant, it had reached Mimikyu and thrust out venom-coated claws.
Caught off guard, Mimikyu could only raise Shadow Claw in defense.
It was at a disadvantage in the clash of strength and was sent flying. Toxicroak did not pursue recklessly, instead calmly leaping upward.
The next moment, the other Mimikyu's ghostly claw swept through the spot where Toxicroak had just been.
Toxicroak sneered in midair. It fiercely kicked against the air with both legs, forcefully creating an air burst, then charged downward once more.
Poison Jab.
The same scene played out again. The attacked Mimikyu hurriedly defended while the other rushed over to cover it.
Toxicroak was not a "speed-type" Pokémon, but under Aihara Take's training, it had used a strange technique called "frog leap" to completely replace its original method of movement.
By leaping with enormous strength, it achieved supersonic movement.
Every Poison Jab carried tremendous kinetic force.
Not only that, it also used an aerial technique that made Roy immediately think of
