Togekiss was frail. After taking a Stone Edge boosted several times over, Togekiss lost half its HP and was left in a dangerous position.
"Come back and rest, Togekiss!" Togekiss had little room to maneuver against the Rock-type Gigalith, so Zhang Cheng had no choice but to switch to another Pokémon.
"Go, Kingdra!" Zhang Cheng sent out a Water-type Pokémon that Gigalith had reason to fear.
"Kingdra, use Rain Dance!" Zhang Cheng ordered Kingdra to change the weather with Rain Dance. Once the sandstorm disappeared, Gigalith's Special Defense would drop, allowing Kingdra to exploit its weakness with special Water-type moves.
"Hass~ Hass~"
A dense surge of water elemental power erupted from Kingdra's body, forming dark clouds overhead. Raindrops then began to fall.
As the rain continued falling, it washed away the dust in the air. The sandstorm was on the verge of disappearing.
"Changing the sandstorm won't be that easy!" Lu Luan saw through Zhang Cheng's plan at once and immediately ordered Gigalith to summon another sandstorm.
"Gigalith, use Sandstorm again!"
At Lu Luan's command, dense Rock-type energy erupted from Gigalith's body, spreading outward and turning into countless fragments of rock and dust.
As the Rock-type energy surged in, fewer and fewer raindrops fell from the sky, and the rainy weather was overtaken by the sandstorm.
Since Flygon had activated Sandstorm first, Lu Luan held the initiative. Whenever Kingdra tried to change the weather, Gigalith could activate its own weather move again to override it.
Not only had this failed to dispel the sandstorm, but it had also given Gigalith a chance to refresh its duration.
Now that the sandstorm had formed again, great clouds of sand and dirt swirled through the air, striking Kingdra's body and dealing minor damage.
"Kingdra, use Hydro Pump!"
