Of course he was still alive.
Bold might have looked reckless, but he was careful where it counted.
He had deliberately chosen a point of impact relatively far from Excadrill.
But even so, when the referee's Pokémon dug Excadrill out, he was barely breathing.
Fortunately, the Black Dragon Cup's medical team was highly professional, with an Elite Four Level medical Pokémon on hand.
After treatment, he was soon out of danger.
Some minor problems with his bones would still require a period of rest.

A Cun stared at the nearly collapsed battlefield, his face scrunching up in despair.
His Dig strategy had been crushed by sheer force. Somehow, his opponent had made Liquidation hit like Earthquake.
As for a flying strategy, that Waterfall had covered nearly the entire field. He would probably lose even faster.
Other strategies?
He didn't have the Pokémon for them!
What he understood even less was how Golisopod still looked perfectly fine after three or four minutes!
Just how much stamina did you have?!
Bold: Wait, nobody used Curse on me, did they?
