"Rain Dance!"
"Sandstorm!"
Brock and Xiaomi exchanged a glance, then shouted together.
"Ga-meh!"
"Ga-meh!"
Barbaracle and Blastoise roared at the same time...
Dark clouds swirled overhead. Fine raindrops mixed with fierce, sand-laden winds, forming murky tornadoes that swept across the battlefield.
The water, roiling with undercurrents, suddenly burst into sprays of yellow-brown mud.
Interesting. Truly interesting... Dian's eyes gradually lit up. This was exactly what he wanted to see.
No,
this wasn't enough!
"Rain Dance!"
"Sandstorm!"
This time, the commands came from Dian. He wanted to see just how far this combination of weather could go.
"Mis."
Misdreavus blinked and used Rain Dance as well.
Rumble—
The clouds overhead suddenly turned pitch-black. Faint streaks of electricity appeared among them, and tiny ice crystals began to condense as well.
Tyranitar flicked its long red tail, its black eyes fixed intently on the sky. It could see the harmony of water and rock that its opponents had demonstrated—the water vapor condensed by Blastoise's Rain Dance merging strangely with the sand and stones summoned by Barbaracle.
But at that moment, Dian saw even more. He saw Barbaracle's true aim!
Its Earthquake had not been intended to inflict widespread damage or shatter the battlefield's ice layer. It had been meant to distort the magnetic field!
Likewise, it had deliberately concealed its use of Earth Power, also with the aim of creating a magnetic field!
It was precisely that distortion of the magnetic field that had combined with Blastoise's Rain Dance to form tornadoes!
Meanwhile, the mud and sand mixing with the raindrops in the sky pierced the insulating layer, connecting the clouds to the earth and producing lightning... But,
neither Blastoise nor Barbaracle seemed to know any Electric-type moves. Otherwise, they could have unleashed a powerful electric attack immediately.
But this probably wasn't Brock
