Hunter J clenched her fists. She was just a hair's breadth away from defeating that old man's Feraligatr, obtaining the Absol, completing her employer's mission, Harvest a large bounty!
He secretly left Hoenn and headed to Sinnoh to recruit soldiers, upgrade equipment, buy a large spaceship, and so on...
But now, his bright future has been completely ruined by that person!
Hunter J glared fiercely at Roy, who was commanding Drakloak.
It seems... that's the only option left.
She originally didn't want to use this method, since it would damage her image among her subordinates, but now she had no choice.
Hunter J said to his closest subordinates:
"You lot, tell your Pokémon not to resist."
"Boss, for..."
One of the henchmen didn't understand why Hunter J was doing this. He was about to question him when he turned around and saw Hunter J's murderous gaze. He silently swallowed his words.
Before they could Pokémon, Salamence unleashed a Flamethrower attack on all five hunters' Pokémon from behind.
Nidoking Parasect, who was still fighting the guards, was caught completely off guard by the attack from behind and was instantly burned by the intense heat of the flames, rendering him unable to fight.
The guards, thinking it was infighting among the hunters, were preparing to retaliate.
After defeating the other hunters' Pokémon, Salamence's aura surged, its attack power reached its peak, and it looked at Drakloak and Garchomp with disdain.
Depend on!
Elbowing a teammate shows Moxie?
Roy understood the opponent's actions; this was indeed something Hunter J could do.
After all, in the anime, the other side's ship's cargo hold was damaged by Ash, which might affect the ship's flight. Hunter J, disregarding the fact that there were still his own people in the cargo hold, simply abandoned the cargo hold from high altitude.
The original Salamence was already difficult to deal with, but now that its attack power is maxed out, it's even more challenging.
Roy looked in the direction of the Misdreavus. While having the Misdreavus Transform Flutter Mane would certainly give it a chance to win, there were still a lot of people around.
Never mind...
If we still can't win in the end, we can evolve Misdreavus into Flutter Mane as a last resort.
With its momentum surging, Salamence swooped down towards Cynthia's Garchomp, thinking it would take care of one of them first before turning back to deal with Roy's surprisingly fast Drakloak.
Cynthia saw Hunter J attacking her and kept thinking of a countermeasure, but the pressure from Salamence after defeating her six Pokémon was too great.
For a moment, Cynthia couldn't think of any tactics that could bridge the gap in strength.
Is this what they call overwhelming superiority?
"Cynthia, let your Garchomp hold them off!"
"Drakloak, use Help on Garchomp!"
"Lampent, use Protect on Garchomp!"
Roy issued three orders in a row.
"Dorgon"
An energy flowed from Drakloak to Garchomp's aura to surge.
At the same time, Lampent created a bright green energy shield in front of Garchomp, and then immediately fled.
Cynthia roughly understood what Roy meant. Now, all she had to do was stall this crazy woman and wait for the zookeeper's Feraligatr to recover its strength. That would be a success.
Garchomp! Breaking Swipe!
The emerald green energy shield was shattered by the Salamence's tail upon Dragon Tail, but it wasn't entirely ineffective, causing the Salamence's Dragon Tail to pause for 1 second.
Garchomp seized the opportunity, and the instant the energy shield shattered, it swung its shark-like tail with a caudal fin, colliding with Salamence's tail.
The moment the two tails collided, Garchomp felt a tremendous force sweep it against a large tree behind it, the force snapping the thick tree in two.
Fortunately, thanks to Litwick's energy shield which absorbed some of the damage, Garchomp did not lose its fighting ability immediately and managed to stand up again, albeit shakily.
Garchomp's Breaking Swipe also hit Salamence, and with Drakloak's assistance, the power of Breaking Swipe was increased by half.
Salamence only increased its attack, not its defense. After taking the super-effective damage and the Garchomp's Rough Skin, it showed a pained expression.
Even Hunter J on his back was almost thrown off.
Meanwhile, the Lampent, having received Roy's Mind Communication, secretly released a Will-O-Wisp while Salamence was in pain, and it landed on Salamence.
By the time Hunter J came to his senses, the Salamence was already Burn, and its attack power was greatly reduced.
Her face darkened. Her Salamence had taken a full hit of Wide -Breaking Swipe and was Burn, and most importantly, she hadn't even switched out Cynthia's Garchomp.
Salamence wanted to retreat to the sky as soon as possible, since the Feraligatr was still watching it. Just as it was about to take off, Salamence suddenly felt its body sink.
Dusclops, who had just been sitting among its hunter Pokémon, arrived beside Roy.
It turned out that Roy had Mind Communication commanded the Dusclops to come under the Salamence and use Trick Room, positioning it perfectly to cover the Salamence.
Within the Trick Room, Salamence's speed decreased, but due to the significant level difference between the two, the Trick Room had a limited impact on Salamence.
It only slightly reduces Salamence's speed, and Gravity completely ignores Salamence.
However, something is better than nothing. Drakloak, who had just used Help on Garchomp, suddenly emerged from the shadows, its head wreathed in Ghostly Purple energy, and charged at Hunter J behind Salamence.
As long as you hit it, you can kill it!
Salamence spun around and used its body to shield Hunter J from the attack, then, despite the pain, carried Hunter J out of the Trick Room.
Roy, through the teamwork of his Pokémon, defused Hunter J's attack and severely damaged Salamence.
The situation is now very bad for Hunter J.
"Feraligatr, use Ice Beam!"
The zookeeper's Feraligatr had also recovered and joined the battle, its mouth emitting a Feraligatr, icy blue beam that swept towards Salamence.
The already weakened Salamence dared not take the hit of the Ice Beam, nor did it dare to stay in mid-air and use Roost.
She could only dodge left and right; now she was the one being spun around by the top.
