Beldum spun around and around, then suddenly stopped in front of Tyrantrum as though someone had hit pause. Its red crystal eyes gleamed with eagerness.
Its little body leaned slightly forward, clearly wanting to bump heads with Tyrantrum again and see just how powerful its newly mastered Zen Headbutt was.
