Ground type had effectively crippled Electivire by half.
Heiduo's expression remained calm. Most of Electivire's moves were Electric type. It did have moves of other types, but most were low-level. Only [Ice Punch] and [Brick Break] were barely decent, while [Psychic] could only serve as an emergency measure.
The situation looked precarious, but in reality, everything was under Heiduo's control.
Did he not know what Pokémon Pryce commonly used?
There were only so many Ice-type Pokémon in Johto. Pryce did not like using Pokémon such as Sneasel or Jynx.
That naturally left Dewgong and Piloswine as the remaining options.
Lapras was most likely impossible. Other than Ice River, Pryce would never raise another Lapras. It would only remind him of Lapras and Lapras.
But those two Lapras held an irreplaceable place in his heart.
Therefore, the possibility of Piloswine had grown infinitely in Heiduo's mind.
And that was indeed the case. Of the three Pokémon Heiduo had seen earlier, the last one had also been a Mamoswine, though it was only level fifty-nine. It was fundamentally different from the level sixty-five Piloswine before him.
Heiduo was not surprised that Pryce had so many Piloswine under his command. He had quite a few Houndour himself, enough to fill the main hall of a base.
These Gym Leaders simply had no idea how to restrain themselves when it came to Pokémon. Each one had more than the last.
Take Lt. Surge, for example. He had so many Electrode hanging from his body like a belt of ammunition, and every one of them knew Explosion. He was ridiculously cocky.
Likewise, he had plenty of Magnemite and Magneton.
It could not be helped. They had the financial resources. Most Pokémon did not need to be personally raised by them. They only needed to train
