Lu Luan did not want to drag the battle out any longer. If Mega Swampert wore his Pokémon down too much, things would become difficult. He decisively ordered Mega Tyranitar to use its inherited Dragon-type powerhouse move, Outrage.
Outrage unleashed a tremendously powerful barrage of energy for a time, but it came at a steep price: the Pokémon would become confused.
Lu Luan had no time to worry about that now. He was staking everything on one final, desperate struggle.
Mega Tyranitar understood its Trainer's intent and unleashed every ounce of its strength without holding back. Vast amounts of frenzied Dragon-type energy gathered around it.
The energy was extremely difficult to control. As soon as Mega Tyranitar absorbed it, it spat it back out, sending a barrage of deep yellow energy waves toward Mega Swampert.
"Mega Swampert, ignore its attack! Aim straight at Mega Tyranitar and use Brine!"
Zhang Cheng's goal was to wear Mega Tyranitar down as much as possible. Even if it meant risking Mega Swampert's defeat, he would see it through.
As long as it could severely injure Mega Tyranitar, Mega Swampert would have fulfilled its role.
"Gana! Gana!"
Mega Swampert pounded the ground with all four limbs, then spat a torrent of brine toward Mega Tyranitar.

"Gana!"
