Crabhammer!
Before Crawdaunt could even get up, Lu Ze hurriedly commanded it to attack.
But it was still too late. Lance's Haxorus was also incredibly fast. Just as Crawdaunt got to its feet, Haxorus had already arrived in front of him.

As Sirfetch'd entered the field, Lance looked at Lu Ze's Sirfetch'd and nodded.
It had been raised quite well too. He just did
