Poliwrath also understood Heracross's condition and immediately used the energy he had absorbed to create a Protect barrier.
Heracross's massive body slammed forward, his sharp Horn thrusting hard into the solid barrier and instantly covering it in cracks.
Under Heracross's relentless assault, countless cracks spread across the transparent barrier like a spiderweb. With a sharp crack, the entire barrier finally shattered.
With the barrier broken, nothing stood in Heracross's way. Powerful fighting-type energy surged through his Horn as it struck Poliwrath in the lower abdomen.
Poliwrath cried out in pain from the vicious blow to his stomach. Even with three uses of Bulk Up bolstering him, his HP dropped to two-fifths. Heracross's attack was truly terrifying.
"Poliwrath, use Dynamic Punch to knock Heracross back!"
Poliwrath and Heracross were so close together that Heracross would have no time to block a Dynamic Punch.
Fighting-type moves were not very effective against Heracross, but with Bulk Up and the Black Belt boosting Poliwrath, the attack would still pack a considerable punch.
Most importantly, Poliwrath's Dynamic Punch would cause confusion. That was Zhang Cheng's aim. Once Heracross was confused, he would be much easier to handle.
"Yobo!"
Enraged by the heavy blow to his stomach, Poliwrath unleashed the fighting-type energy within him the instant he received his Trainer's command.
Poliwrath swung both fists fiercely, releasing a burst of concentrated fighting-type energy. The powerful impact sent Heracross flying.
After taking Poliwrath's attack, Heracross had less than a third of his HP remaining. A tremendous amount of bug-type energy began surging uncontrollably through his body.
This was a sign that Heracross's Ability, Swarm, had activated. His next Bug-type moves would be immensely powerful.
"Heracross, unleash your full power and use Megahorn!"
Seeing Heracross's Ability activate, Ye Tian ordered him to use the powerful Bug-type move Megahorn
