In the arena, the two Pokémon exuded terrifying momentum, yet neither showed any intention of attacking first.
Mega Garchomp stared coldly at Mega Charizard X.
Mega Charizard X looked equally serious, beating its wings to maintain its aerial advantage.
"Garchomp, Dragon Pulse charge!"
After a brief silence, Cynthia ultimately ordered her Mega Garchomp to launch the first attack.
Dragon Pulse surged from Mega Garchomp's mouth as it charged toward Mega Charizard X.
After twisting aside to evade the Dragon Pulse, Mega Charizard X immediately dove down at Mega Garchomp.
"Boom!"
Dragon Rush collided with Dragon Rush.
The shockwave and scattered energy produced by the clash of their immense power even caused the nearby energy defense barrier to tremble.
The moment the two Pokémon collided, they immediately began trading close-range blows.
Both unleashed Dragon Claw, their arms swinging continuously.
Compared to Mega Garchomp, Mega Charizard X was clearly more agile.
Even so, after each took a claw strike from the other, they both retreated.
"Charizard, Will-O-Wisp!"
"Will-O-Wisp?"
"This isn't a very good time to use that move."
As someone who liked and excelled at using status moves, Lu Ze had his own opinion on the situation.
Will-O-Wisp was not a guaranteed-hit move.
At this distance, Mega Garchomp would most likely either dodge it or block it outright.
Sure enough, as soon as Lu Ze finished speaking, Mega Garchomp used Dragon Claw and smashed apart the drifting Will-O-Wisp with one swipe.
Leon had not expected Will-O-Wisp to land. He had merely used the opportunity to order Mega Charizard X to use Swords Dance.
But they were too close.
After breaking through Mega Charizard X's Will-O-Wisp, Mega Garchomp saw it using Swords Dance and charged at it without hesitation.
Before Mega Charizard X could finish using Swords Dance, Mega Garchomp slapped it away
