Battle Chateau.
The torrential rain was still falling.
Empowered by the rain, Mega Blastoise gathered tremendous Water-type energy in its three cannons...
The Hydro Pumps erupted simultaneously, merging into an immensely thick, devastating jet of high-pressure water!
The high-pressure jet thundered toward Mega Lucario, who stood on the ground!
Though it had the miraculous art of dodging, Lucario could easily slip in the rain.
"Detect!"
Detect was similar to Protect, but not quite the same.
Both were defensive moves, but Protect only required the user to stay still, while Detect involved movement.
Li Wei's aura was closely synchronized with Lucario's. At that moment, he felt as though he had taken over Lucario's body.
Blue light flickered in Mega Lucario's eyes. Utterly focused, it keenly tracked Hydro Pump's trajectory!
Detect succeeded.
With an impossibly precise twist to the side, Lucario let the high-pressure jet skim past its body and slam into the lake behind it, raising an enormous splash.
A flicker of surprise crossed Siebold's eyes, but he remained calm. "You can't beat us through defense alone, Li Wei."
"Blastoise, Hydro Cannon!"
After Hydro Pump came the even more powerful Hydro Cannon.
Mega Blastoise lowered its body. The water gathering in its cannons this time was clearly far more powerful...
This time, Lucario couldn't use Detect or Protect again. Using Protect twice in succession was far too likely to fail.
Protect, don't Protect, then Protect.
That was the essence of it.
Li Wei commanded, "Full-power Earthquake! Stop it!"
Lucario slammed both fists into the ground. As the earth shook violently, Mega Blastoise fired its Hydro Cannon.
Mega Blastoise had aimed at Lucario, but Earthquake threw off its aim at the moment it fired!
As everyone knew, Hydro Cannon was also prone to missing.
Especially when Earthquake had knocked Mega Blastoise off
