Victory is my life

As far as he knew, Charmander had two Ability. One was the general Blaze, which made Fire-type moves more powerful in critical situations.

Another type is the Solar Power. While its power is enhanced under Sunny Day or on a sunny Drought, this power can also harm the body, causing Ability decrease in physical strength.

Furthermore, although every Pokémon has Ability, not every Pokémon will eventually awaken that Ability.

Before Ability is awakened, it's essentially the same as not having one.

"Aww!"

As soon as Charmander appeared, it roared and spat out a few sparks. Its orange tail swished back and forth as it looked disdainfully at the relatively small Hoppip.

Clearly, the difference in size, coupled with the advantage in attributes, made this Charmander feel that the outcome was already decided.

"Hmph, hahaha! Scared now? Begging for mercy won't help. I'll let you experience what despair truly means."

The Kidney-Deficient Youth burst into wild laughter.

The smile faded from his lips, his face turning expressionless. Despair? Don't worry, after the battle I'll show you what true despair is.

"Charmander, don't hold back! Use your full power to Flamethrower!!"

The Kidney-Deficient Youth immediately unleashed his ultimate move; all he wanted now was to avenge his humiliation as quickly as possible.

Upon hearing the command, the Charmander's eyes immediately turned fierce, and then it suddenly tilted its head back and spat out a thick stream of flame.

The scorching Heat Wave evaporated the moisture from the leaves and branches. Luckily, they were standing on solid ground; otherwise, they would have ruined the garden, and the consequences would have been dire.

Dian's eyes flickered, combining this with his earlier assessment, "Hoppip, use Fairy Wind on your feet and jump up."

An invisible wind struck the ground and then quickly spread outwards, temporarily blocking the Heat Wave. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Hoppip floated up Frillish.

Although Charmander had learned the powerful skill of Flamethrower, its body couldn't sustain it for that long, and soon the thick pillar of fire disappeared.

"Hateful!"

The Kidney-Deficient Youth Bite, "Charmander, charge! Jump up and use your Scratch to tear the leaves on its head to shreds!"

"Hoppip, Splash!"

However, the palace made the Hoppip in the air use a skill that seemed useless.

The Kidney-Deficient Youth was overjoyed. He could already imagine his Charmander going to vent his anger for him!

The Charmander ran over quickly, then suddenly pushed off with its lower limbs and swung its tail, leaping high into the air. It gave the Hoppip in the air a cold smile and then revealed its sharp claws.

Scratch!

Several flashes of cold light appeared, and the Charmander's smug smile froze on its face, because it had missed its target.

As it swiftly and Rage swung its Scratch, for some reason, the Hoppip opposite it did not fall to the position it expected, but instead flew upwards a few steps.

It turned out that the Hoppip used the Rage wind from Charmander's jump as a base to perform Splash, allowing it to leap up again and easily dodge Charmander's next attack.

"Fairy Wind!"

Seeing his opportunity, the prince immediately gave the order, "Then use the Tackle downwards like this!"

"Oh no! Charmander, get out of the way!!"

The Kidney-Deficient Youth hurriedly gave the order, forgetting that for Charmander in the air, dodging is a difficult task. You can't expect a Charmander to move freely in the air or swim in the air.

Charmander was originally going to stretch out its arms to shield its head from the attack from above, but after hearing its Trainer's command, it almost instinctively started trying to move to the side, which was of course a waste of effort.

This was also within the temple's expectations. Charmander is a very loyal Pokémon and the gentlest in its family, so it is relatively suitable for novice Trainer.

However, such loyalty is not necessarily a good thing, because excessive loyalty can sometimes lead to ignoring the correct choices and continuing to follow the Trainer's wrong instructions.

In a real battle, such blind loyalty is not easy to judge, but one thing is certain: the battle is always between the Pokémon themselves.

Sometimes their instinctive reactions may be the truly correct choices. Of course, it's possible that some Trainer might intentionally injure their Pokémon to complete their own plans.

However, it is clear that the Kidney-Deficient Youth is not included in this category; he simply made the wrong choice.

This was all caused by the palace's manipulation.

He had been waiting for this opportunity since the start of the match.

A proud person like the Kidney-Deficient Youth would certainly not allow his Pokémon to disobey him, so the will of his Pokémon is not a consideration.

In other words, from the moment he started using the Charmander, Dian focused most of his attention on the Kidney-Deficient Youth, constantly trying to figure out what he was thinking.

When two seemingly certain attacks are easily evaded by the opponent, this person begins to feel anxious and uneasy. Therefore, if they find themselves in a crisis at this point, they are likely to issue a blundering command.

Of course, these are just the Hall's predictions, but even if they are wrong, it doesn't matter. Even if this person is so heartless as to disregard his Charmander's situation and makes it tilt its head back and use Flamethrower in the air, he will not be afraid.

Charmander cannot move freely in the air, but that doesn't mean Hoppip can't. Although it's not as convenient as on land, dodging a move is still a piece of cake.

The concentrated version of Fairy Wind, specially prepared by the Hoppip for Charmander, struck Charmander hard in the middle of its body.

Bang!

The swift wind slammed the Charmander directly onto the Ground-type, stirring up a layer of dust around it.

Not only that, the Hoppip took a deep breath, then, enveloped in a Fairy Wind, Tackle fiercely towards the Charmander on the ground.

Just as the Charmander was struggling to get up, it was knocked to the ground again, and this time it was even more seriously injured.

"It's over."

The hall muttered a phrase to himself, then shouted loudly at the Hoppip, "Hoppip, don't hold back! Give it the full power of Fairy Wind!"

That's right. He's not the kind of person who's kind-hearted and willing to give his opponents a chance. He Pursuit and won't give his opponents a single chance to turn the tide until they admit defeat or lose their fighting ability.

The battle must be as ruthless and merciless as Rainstorm!

Only ultimate victory and glory are our ultimate desire!
