Zhou Bai quickly composed himself and prepared to continue the battle.

Zhou Bai and Lin Yun now had only one Pokémon left each.

Zhang Cheng and Xiao Wei still had all four of their Pokémon. Poliwhirl and Pidgeotto had suffered fairly serious injuries, but overall, their side still held the advantage.

Cloyster skillfully concentrated water energy on the spike atop its head. Under Cloyster's control, the vast quantity of water energy formed rings of rippling water.

Once the ripples had formed, Cloyster sent them swiftly toward Nidorina, carrying tremendous power.
