Xue Nong quickly took out a Poké Ball. A beam of red light shot out, and a massive Drapion appeared before them.

"The reason is simple. This Drapion was injured in an earlier battle. He kept him out of the fighting just now so he could recover as much stamina as possible." Zhang Cheng quickly saw through their opponent's situation.

"Then our chances are still pretty good. We've got four Pokémon against their two, and neither of theirs is in great shape." Zheng Hao felt that was welcome news.

Zhang Cheng nodded and opened the Detection System to check Drapion's detailed stats:

Name: Drapion (Level 43) Gender: Male Potential: B Type: Poison, Dark Held item: None Basic moves: Poison Sting, Leer, Bite, Knock Off, Pin Missile, Acupressure, Pursuit, Bug Bite, Poison Fang, Venoshock, Hone Claws, Toxic Spikes, Night Slash, Scary Face Learned moves: Dark Pulse, X-Scissor Egg moves: Feint Attack, Poison Tail, Slash Ability: Battle Armor (A Pokémon with this ability is protected by a hard shell, preventing opponents' attacks from landing critical hits.) Notes: Drapion, the Scorpion Pokémon. The claws on his two arms have enough destructive power to shred a car, and can also release toxins.

This Drapion was considerably stronger
