"Darkrai, don't give your opponent a chance! Use Dark Pulse, now!" Lin Shan commanded viciously.
Darkrai nodded and swiftly fired a Dark Pulse at the sleeping Moltres.
Just as the Dark Pulse was about to hit, Moltres suddenly woke up, beat its wings, and soared into the sky, dodging the fatal blow.

Boom!
The flames covering Moltres erupted once more, blasting Darkrai's body with terrifying
