[Thunder] missed. Before the lightning could strike, Wallace had already recalled his Walrein into its Poké Ball.
Wallace let out a breath. This really had been his mistake.
A small oversight had put him at a disadvantage.
Sure enough, was it because he had not had a formal Pokémon Battle in so long?
Wallace exhaled deeply, took out a Poké Ball, and released his fourth Pokémon.
Lu Ze had only used three Pokémon so far.
Yet this was already Wallace's fourth Pokémon.
Moreover, Ludicolo and Gyarados among his four Pokémon had already lost their ability to battle.
Lu Ze, on the other hand, had only lost Iron Valiant.
This situation was clearly unfavorable for him.
But Wallace had no choice.
He knew himself that, among all Champions, he could be considered one of the weaker ones.
After all, his Pokémon were purely Water type.
Unlike Steven Stone. Though Steven Stone was known for Steel types, many of his Pokémon were also Rock types.
Along with their other secondary types, they had a far greater margin for error than he did.
Besides, being a Trainer was not his main profession.
Although Coordinators also needed the support of battle strength, his battling ability was clearly among the best of all Coordinators.
Originally, he had not cared about that. He was merely a Coordinator, so why should he compare battle strength with Trainers?
Wouldn't that be using his own weakness against someone else's strength?
But for some reason, facing Lu Ze, who was younger than him, stirred up his competitive spirit.
