Boom!
The ground trembled.
The Dynamaxed Hawlucha, dozens of meters tall, entered the field. Its massive body blocked out the sky above the arena, and its spread wings whipped up powerful gusts.
"Roo—!! Cha—!!"
Its voice was like the tolling of a bell, carrying a deafening echo throughout the vast Wyndon Stadium.
Purple-red storm clouds blanketed the sky, while three red clouds circled above the Dynamaxed Hawlucha's head, bathing its body in an eerie violet-red glow.

Fortunately, the fireball had at least slowed its momentum somewhat.
Relying on its agility, Cinderace made two consecutive leaps backward before springing aside to avoid the core impact.
Boom!!
The ground shook violently. Billowing dust surged toward the edge of the field, activating the
