Roar Once, Feel Great; Keep Roaring, Keep Feeling Great

Swampert took the field.

Goromaru's expression immediately became as ugly as if he had been constipated for half a month.

Magnezone had no good way of dealing with Swampert, which was why Goromaru had not sent Magnezone out earlier. Yet despite his efforts to avoid it, Magnezone still had to face Swampert head-on.

Now, he could only hope that Magnezone had enough distance between them to wear Swampert down from afar...

—But Swampert had long-range moves too!

Remembering the Scald Swampert had used before, Goromaru could not help feeling despair. But he clenched his teeth again a moment later. Whether he could win or not, he would only know after trying!

But...

The magnets on Magnezone's left and right suddenly rose upright, pointing toward the distant Swampert. Its four poles and the antenna on its head all glowed with silver light, firing five tiny, irregular bronze-colored bolts of lightning with a sharp "whoosh"!

"Jump over it! Save some water! Hammer Arm!"

There was one way to fight while conserving water and another way without conserving it. Upon hearing the command, Swampert's expression did not change. It still struck the ground with its left fist and attacked with its right, except
