"Walrein, use Blizzard!"

Bai Shi opened with a big move, giving Walrein his command.

A fierce blizzard howled toward Dwebble.

"Dwebble, use Protect!"

Burgh's expression changed, and he quickly responded.

Shielded by a transparent barrier, Burgh's Dwebble remained untouched by the storm.

"Walrein, use Hydro Pump!"

Bai Shi had anticipated this and immediately issued another command.

Walrein opened its mouth and fired a thick column of blue water toward Dwebble.

Having shed its shell, Dwebble crossed its claws and struck Walrein with lightning speed, dealing considerable damage.

"Walrein, use Hydro Pump!"

Unwilling to take that lying down, Bai Shi ordered Walrein to counterattack.

Walrein fired a column of water at Burgh's
