Someone Has a "Person" to Repay a Debt of Gratitude To

Next was Electivire.

There was nothing wrong with Electivire itself. The problem was Heiduo—he had been too greedy for a big move. Instead of using [Wild Charge], he had insisted on [Ultimate Electric Shock], giving the already-powerful Blaziken an opening.

This yellow-furred gorilla had taken the blame for Heiduo.

Still, it was better late than never. With its solid damage output and the help of Electric Terrain, Electivire had managed to knock Blaziken down.

Last was Garchomp.

Honestly, from the start until the moment before the end, Garchomp had been suppressing Kommo-o. It had suffered only a handful of injuries, nowhere near as many as Kommo-o had.

Under normal circumstances, the burns from Dragon Flame, the impact of Dragon Rush, and the recoil damage from Rough Skin would have taken down ten Kommo-o.

Yet this guy had stubbornly held on until the very last second, even unleashing an Uppercut that had nearly taken down Garchomp!

That alone showed that this Kommo-o was far from ordinary. Like Garchomp, it definitely possessed some special talent.

Its special talent might not necessarily have manifested through moves. Like Clair's Ultra Giant Dragonair and Agatha's Death Makeup multi-serpent-patterned Arbok, there might have been something unusual about its body.

For example, it could have been born with extraordinary endurance, more stamina than an ordinary Kommo-o, or even resistance to Dragon type energy.

The specifics would have to wait until he asked Longxing herself. As Kommo-o's Trainer, she naturally knew more than Heiduo did.

Heiduo did not believe that he was the only person in the world who could own exceptionally gifted Pokémon, especially not someone like Longxing, a wealthy second-generation heir who had been born with greater social standing and access to resources than others.

If Heiduo was a cheating player, then Longxing was a pay-to-win
