Ampharos lost two-fifths of its HP to Hex. Fortunately, Charge had boosted its Special Defense; otherwise, that hit would have left its HP dangerously low.
Froslass was in even worse shape. The powerful Zap Cannon Ampharos had charged up struck it head-on, sending its entire body flying backward before it crashed down at the edge of the battlefield.
Froslass's defenses were not particularly strong. The powerful, Charge-boosted Zap Cannon stripped away two-thirds of its HP and left it paralyzed, drastically reducing its speed.
Speed was Froslass's greatest advantage. With that now restricted, it was as though it had lost both its arms.
"Ampharos, use Thunder and defeat Froslass!"
Zhang Cheng intended to seize the opportunity while Froslass's speed was impaired and have Ampharos swiftly overwhelm it with a powerful offensive.
If Froslass shook off its paralysis, it would become extremely difficult for Ampharos to deal with.

Following its Trainer's command, Ampharos gathered a massive amount of Electric-type energy once again, shaping it into a thunder dragon.
Once formed, the thunder dragon threw back its head and roared. Its body writhed wildly as it charged at Froslass with devastating power.
Facing the approaching thunder dragon, Chen Shan did not immediately give Froslass an order. He waited until it was right in front of them before quickly calling out.

The Ghost-type energy entered Ampharos's body, forging a mysterious link between the two Pokémon. If one was defeated, the other would lose the ability to battle at the same time.
By then, the
