"Go, Gengar!"
Lu Ze was a little helpless, but he still recalled his Lucario, which had lost its ability to battle, and sent out his second Pokémon.
Lu Ze had briefly considered sending out one of his Master level Pokémon.
However, it had already been agreed before the match that they would use Pokémon at Elite Four Level, Stage Three.
So Lu Ze quickly abandoned that idea and sent out Gengar instead.
Gengar took the field, but since this was a battle without held items, it did not Mega Evolve.
"Dark Pulse!"
Without hesitation, Lu Ze had Gengar use Dark Pulse the moment it appeared, stopping Chesnaught's charge.
Chesnaught had no time to dodge and could only cross its arms to block the attack.
If Chesnaught's Ability had not been Bulletproof, Lu Ze would most likely have had Gengar use Sludge Bomb instead of Dark Pulse.
"Toxic!"
After stopping Chesnaught's attack, Gengar immediately followed Lu Ze's command and used Toxic.
"Chesnaught, Crunch!"
Alain also swept out an arm, and Chesnaught launched its attack.
While Gengar had been using Toxic, Chesnaught had already closed in on it once more.
Now, Crunch came down!
Gengar merely gave a wicked grin and slipped directly into another dimension.
Shadow Sneak!
Without giving Chesnaught time to react, Gengar reappeared and punched Chesnaught directly.
Struck in the back, Chesnaught staggered two steps forward.
"Venoshock!"
At Lu Ze's command, Venoshock hit Chesnaught and dealt quadruple damage.
Its damage was doubled because of Toxic, then doubled again due to type advantage.
The quadruple damage left Chesnaught barely able to hold on.
But Alain smiled faintly. "Pain Split!"
Chesnaught used the move, and its exhausted body recovered at once.
The remaining stamina of both sides was added together and then divided equally.
That was clearly unfair to Gengar!
