Snorlax threw a punch, forcibly blocking Gyarados's Iron Tail.
However, Gyarados's attack did not end there. Under Lance's command, it used Crunch once more.
Snorlax raised its arms to block, but Gyarados clamped down on them with a bite.
Snorlax frowned slightly, the muscles in its arm suddenly swelling as it tried to mitigate some of the damage. Its other hand quickly reached out as well.
"Bang!"
Snorlax pressed its right hand against Gyarados's neck and slammed Gyarados straight into the ground.
Lance watched this with some surprise.
After all, his Gyarados specialized in physical attacks as well, and its strength was nothing to scoff at.
On top of that, Snorlax's Attack had already been lowered by one stage. How could it hold his Gyarados down with one hand and keep it from breaking free?
"Thunder Punch!"
Lu Ze's excited voice rang out. Snorlax held Gyarados down with one hand, ignoring its frantic struggles, while its other hand clenched into a fist and smashed down on Gyarados's head.
Gyarados took the quadruple-effective hit and struggled wildly, its tail lashing about.
Aqua Tail struck Snorlax's body, but Snorlax did not budge at all. Its Thunder Punch came crashing down again.
"Boom!"
With a deafening crash, Snorlax released its grip and stood up. In front of it lay Gyarados, its eyes already spinning.
"G-Gyarados is unable to battle. Please switch Pokémon."
Clair, standing to the side, was dumbfounded. Before she could even react, Gyarados had already fallen to the ground, unable to battle.
Lance smiled, withdrew Gyarados with a Poké Ball, and sent out his final Pokémon.
"Go, Dragonite!"
Lu Ze's heart skipped a beat as he looked at Dragonite, whose aura was completely different from before.
"This should be his ace Pokémon," Lu Ze muttered, growing excited.
"Snorlax!"
"Snor!"
Snorlax understood
