After seeing Whimsicott's actions, Lu Ze nodded in satisfaction.
Mm, I could rest easy leaving it to her!
As Whimsicott entered the field, the battle between the two Pokémon began once more.
"Whimsicott, Tailwind!"
"Noibat, Tailwind!"
The two trainers made the same choice without any prior discussion, both choosing Tailwind, a move with little offensive power that could increase their own speed.
As for why they wanted to increase their speed?
Of course, it was because that would let them take control of the battle.
But neither of them had expected their opponent to make the same choice and boost their speed as well.
If both sides increased their speed, it was the same as neither side increasing it.
The two Pokémon were once again on equal footing.
Lu Ze was a little puzzled, but he did not rush to order Whimsicott to attack.
Strangely enough, his opponent did not order Noibat to attack either.
The situation immediately reached a stalemate.
The girl's actions left Lu Ze rather confused.
Something's wrong. Tailwind's already up, so why isn't she attacking?
The girl was equally confused. Why did the other side not launch an attack immediately?
But their silence only lasted a moment before they both realized they could not continue like this.
"Noibat, Air Slash!"
"Whimsicott, Absorb!"
After a brief silence, the two of them simultaneously ordered their Pokémon to attack.
Noibat unleashed Air Slash, while Whimsicott used Absorb on Noibat.
But strangely, after Whimsicott's move struck Noibat, Noibat's Air Slash did not hit Whimsicott?
It missed? Was the aim off?
Lu Ze looked in confusion at the Air Slash that flew past the motionless Whimsicott.
Could Noibat have been predicting Whimsicott's movements?
Only for Whimsicott not to move at all?
Lu Ze was baffled, but the girl was laughing wildly
