Wang Jingke was utterly stunned. Dratini had actually evolved! The effects of Ninetales's three uses of Nasty Plot were still active, and with the tremendous power gained through evolution, Dragonair was now terrifyingly strong, radiating an unnerving aura!
Gallade watched Dragonair warily. Instinct told Gallade that Dragonair was far stronger now than Gallade had imagined!
The light of evolution had stunned the entire audience into a brief silence, but once they recovered, earth-shaking cheers erupted!

Wang Jingke cried urgently, "Gallade, use Protect!"
Gritting teeth, Gallade raised a protective barrier and blocked Dragonair's Dragon
