Alain Left Looking Miserable

"Great job, Charizard!"

Seeing Charizard rise to its feet once again, Alain was somewhat surprised and did not hold back his praise.

Unfortunately, Alain had barely had time to celebrate before Charizard's body suddenly stiffened, and it collapsed straight to the ground before everyone's eyes.

After Charizard fell, its Mega Evolution form vanished in an instant, reverting to its original appearance.

"So cool!" In Serena's eyes, Gary seemed to be sparkling.

"Gary's saying those pointless, show-off lines again," Rosa said helplessly after hearing him.

"Hasn't Gary always been
