"What a clever strategy. Had Nurse Joy planned this far ahead?" Liangguang was startled. "Once Latias changed her types to Rock and Dark, her Levitate Ability turned her weaknesses from Bug, Ghost, Ice, Dragon, Dark, and Fairy to Fighting, Bug, Steel, Water, Grass, and Fairy.
"And Tyranitar hardly knows any Bug-, Grass-, or Fairy-type moves. Of the Water- and Fighting-type moves, only Focus Blast and Water Pulse could threaten Latias up in the air... No, Water Pulse isn't strong enough, and Focus Blast probably won't even hit..."
He shook his head in admiration. Mirror Type had been used brilliantly. It had practically shut down every option Tyranitar had!
Liangguang glanced down at Chinatsu again. Why did it feel as though someone was guiding her from behind the scenes? This wasn't a strategy anyone could devise in an instant.
"That Nurse Joy..." Dian's gaze deepened. "Tyranitar, use Dragon Dance again!"
He ran through every move Tyranitar knew. Where was the way to win in a single strike?!
It had to be one strike, and he would only get one. Otherwise, she would be on guard next time, and the chance would never come again.
In other words, either that strike would knock Latias out, or he and Tyranitar were finished!
Not attacking...? Chinatsu thought it over. She knew she absolutely could not close the distance now. No matter how he tried to lure her in, she could not fight at close range!
As long as she kept her advantage in altitude and distance, and made sure Latias wasn't knocked to the ground, victory would belong to them!
"Latias, Sunny Day, then Solar Beam!" Chinatsu's eyes opened, full of confidence. There was simply no way to defeat Latias in one hit, even with an attack from that incredibly powerful Tyranitar!
"Tyranitar..." Dian
