The Dark Pulse Drapion had unleashed struck Swampert squarely in the body. After taking that powerful blow, Swampert had only about a fifth of its HP left.
"All right, let's get out of here!" Seeing that Drapion's Dark Pulse had still failed to defeat Swampert, Xue Nong knew they had no chance of winning and decisively chose to retreat.
