Wrapped simultaneously in milky-white energy and golden sparks, Electabuzz kicked off the ground with its right leg, becoming a streak of gold-and-white lightning as it charged straight at Grovyle.
Xinhai did not hesitate, his voice equally crisp and decisive.
"Bullet Seed, intercept it head-on!"
Grovyle quickly steadied itself, opened its mouth, and fired a rapid stream of emerald-green seeds. They carved dense trajectories through the air like a green barrage, blanketing Electabuzz head-on.

"Cha!"
Instead of retreating, it charged forward.
