Swampert could not dodge in time. The sharp Dragon Claws carved two deep gashes into its body, rapidly draining its HP and leaving it badly injured.
"Swampert, use Mud Shot to drive Tyrantrum back!"
Seeing Tyrantrum move in to attack Swampert with Dragon Claw again, Zhang Cheng quickly issued a new attack order.
"Gana!"
Swampert opened its mouth and charged up, spitting out a barrage of mud clumps imbued with Ground-type power that was super effective against Tyrantrum.
As the mud clumps shot toward it, Tyrantrum used its sharp claws to break some apart. But there were simply too many, and several still struck its body.
The powerful impact of the mud clumps sent Tyrantrum staggering backward, quickly putting distance between it and Swampert. Its Dragon Claws could no longer reach Swampert.
"Swampert, hit it with your strongest Hydro Cannon!"
After driving Tyrantrum back, Zhang Cheng ordered Swampert to use its most powerful Water-type move, Hydro Cannon.
Using Hydro Cannon came with a severe drawback: the Pokémon would be left immobilized, unable to move.
But in Tyrantrum's current condition, it had no chance of withstanding such a powerful special attack, so that drawback would hardly matter. That was why Zhang Cheng dared to have Swampert unleash Hydro Cannon immediately.
"Gana~ Gana~"
Swampert opened its huge mouth and continuously absorbed the water elemental energy around it. It then compressed all that energy together to form an incredibly dense and powerful Hydro Cannon.
A water projectile no larger than a fist took shape. Despite its small size, the Hydro Cannon contained terrifying power, and Swampert sent it shooting toward Tyrantrum.
"Tyrantrum, attack with Rock Slide!"
Ye Tian knew Tyrantrum could no longer withstand this attack, so he chose to trade damage instead, using Rock Slide to attack Swampert directly and strip away
