"Slowbro, use Water Pulse!"
"Golem, use Bulldoze!"
Zheng Hao reacted quickly, immediately ordering his Pokémon to attack after Honchkrow was defeated.
Since Aggron's Steel typing made it immune to damage from all Poison-type moves, Muk could only attack with Mud-Slap, the sole non-Poison-type move it knew.
Muk could do little against Aggron. It was a Pokémon that relied on Poison-type moves in battle, and without them, it struggled to inflict damage on its enemies.
Still, figuring something was better than nothing, Zheng Hao ordered Muk to attack with Mud-Slap.
Upon receiving the command, Muk began gathering the surrounding Ground-type energy, shaping it into a small clump of mud.
The way Muk formed the mud made its lack of proficiency with Mud-Slap clear. It obviously had never practiced the move.
That was understandable, though. Muk surely focused on training its Poison-type moves. Mud-Slap, which it had learned through leveling up, dealt very little damage and did not match its own type, so there was little reason to practice it.
Once the clump of mud formed from Ground-type energy took shape, Muk hurled it at Aggron.
Under Zheng Hao's command, Slowbro began gathering Water Energy. Water-type moves were super effective against Aggron, whereas Psychic-type moves were not very effective. There was nothing wrong with Zheng Hao's decision to have Slowbro attack with a Water-type move.
Under Slowbro's control, the dense Water Energy turned into rippling waves that surged toward Aggron with tremendous force.
At the same time, Golem was rapidly gathering Ground-type energy.
Golem would play a major role in this battle, because Ground-type attacks were four times as effective against Aggron. Its attacks could deal heavy damage.
Powerful Ground-type energy continually flowed toward Golem, coating its entire body under its control. Once it finished gathering the energy, Golem charged at Aggron,
