Ninetales had learned the powerful move Hyper Beam!
Dragonair had learned both Draco Meteor and Hyper Beam!
Meanwhile, Zeraora and Blaziken had been Lucario's main students!

Just mastering the aura needed for Aura Sphere had required Lucario to guide Zeraora in discovering that power!
Zeraora had also learned how to train that aura!
