"What?!"
Ash froze for a moment as he watched Gastly use Thunderbolt, the golden current striking his Froakie head-on.
Froakie was equally shaken.
Once he thought about how he had learned his moves, he understood.
This Gastly probably worked the same way and knew a lot of moves!
After the golden current struck Froakie, Gastly pursed his lips.
Unfortunately, it had failed to trigger Paralysis.
"Gastly, use Thunderbolt on Hawlucha!"
Froakie knelt on one knee, but Lu Ze did not choose to attack him first.
Hawlucha was also doubly weak to Electric-type moves.
Lu Ze still chose to stick with his original plan.
Get Hawlucha out first.
Shota roughly understood Lu Ze's intentions, and the recovered Bagon charged over as well.
Shota made a snap decision. "Bagon, use Fire Fang on Hawlucha!"
Stimulated by the electricity, Froakie forced himself to stand.

Bang!
The instant the attacks hit, thick black fog billowed up and enveloped all four Pokémon.
"Froakie, use Cut!"
Ash's voice came from outside the Haze. Though he was deeply worried about Hawlucha, Froakie's performance was what mattered now!
As Ash's voice fell, the sounds of two Pokémon colliding came from within the Haze.
Very soon, Bagon flew backward out of the Haze and landed on the ground.

Water now coiled around Froakie's body as he fixed Gastly with a cold gaze.
"Bagon is unable to battle!"
"Hawlucha is unable to battle!"
As Clemont's voice rang out, Shota recalled Bagon into its Poké Ball.
Shota looked full of self-reproach. "Sorry, this was my fault."
Lu Ze's expression turned serious.
Although Hawlucha had also lost
