"Cry!"
Crobat soared through the air, and Lu Ze knew without looking that the moment Tang Yunqin saw Crobat, she would already be frowning.
"As expected, it's Crobat."
Just as Lu Ze imagined, the moment Crobat appeared, Tang Yunqin furrowed her brow.
Crobat was no easy opponent.
Especially for a Pokémon like Milotic.
Close quarters were out of the question, and ranged attacks were hard to land.
On top of that, she had to constantly face Crobat's onslaught.
That part was manageable, but primarily because Crobat was a Poison type, needing to refresh Safeguard every once in a while.
Otherwise, the guaranteed-hit Toxic from a Poison-type Pokémon was truly troublesome to deal with.
A Poison-type Pokémon's guaranteed-hit Toxic was different from other tracking or large-area attacks.
There was basically no counterplay to a Poison-type's Toxic.
Of course, one could counter it either before Toxic hit or after it hit.
Moves like Safeguard and Psycho Shift, for instance.
"Milotic, Safeguard!"
Tang Yunqin sighed, leaving Milotic with no choice but to use Safeguard first to ward off Crobat's Toxic.
Seeing Milotic use Safeguard, a hint of a smile appeared on Lu Ze's face.
Sure enough, Tang Yunqin still understood him.
"However, I never intended for Crobat to use Toxic anyway."
Lu Ze shook his head helplessly, and the Crobat on the field sprang into action.
Nasty Plot
It capitalized on the moment her opponent used Safeguard to buff itself.

Tang Yunqin looked at the Crobat in the sky and smiled helplessly.
It really didn't work out.
A straightforward open plot with absolutely no counterplay.
If she didn't use Safeguard, he would use Toxic, dragging it out until defeat was inevitable anyway.
If she did use Safeguard, he would buff himself, leaving her with no recourse.
The two
