Charizard's mind had been under constant assault, and by now, its head felt ready to split.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After using Shell Smash, Blastoise was like an antiaircraft gun, firing Flash Cannon relentlessly from its shoulder cannons. Its target was no longer just Milotic; Alakazam had been caught in its sights as well.
"Charizard, Inferno Overdrive!" Sunny Day was already in effect, greatly boosting the power of Fire-type moves. Combined with Inferno Overdrive's naturally immense damage, it could still inflict significant damage on Milotic despite the unfavorable type matchup.
Faced with attacks from both above and below, Xiao Ran felt rather helpless. Milotic was doing its best to dodge, but several Flash Cannons still struck it, leaving it badly injured.
Now Inferno Overdrive was blocking its escape from above. Unless it took that attack head-on, it would inevitably suffer a direct hit from Flash Cannon, and it might not be able to withstand the damage.
"Milotic, Aqua Tail! Split it apart!" Xiao Ran steeled himself and ordered Milotic to charge straight at Inferno Overdrive.
Its long, serpentine tail swung, sweeping up a great surge of water and slamming it into the Inferno Overdrive ahead.
"You've really got some nerve! Alakazam, use Psychic again!" Veranica shouted, her expression icy. She hadn't expected Charizard to dare spare the effort to attack Milotic under such a relentless barrage. She had indeed let her guard down.
"Roar!" This time, Charizard failed to dodge Psychic. The attack struck it head-on, sending it plummeting from the sky.
Meanwhile, Milotic successfully broke through Inferno Overdrive with Aqua Tail and escaped the two Pokémon's relentless barrage, though scattered burns now marked its body.
But the safety it found after breaking free was only temporary. Blastoise fired Flash Cannon again, determined to keep Milotic pinned there.
Against such attacks,
