Jubilife Northern Suburbs, coastline.
Metagross had already calculated every possible escape route Hunter D could take.
Metagross made a show of trying to destroy Hunter D's Armored Launcher, but it was really a feint.
Metagross had accurately determined that stones controlled with Confusion would not be enough to destroy his launcher.
"Kangaskhan, Drapion, cover my retreat!"
Hunter D was decisive, too. He planned to run back to the ship and escape in a lifeboat.
"Arcanine, Drakloak, stop them."
Meanwhile, Lucario, who had gone to rescue Shaymin, returned.
"Luca!"
"Shaymin!"
With Lucario there, Li Wei was even more certain of victory. "Lucario, Aura Sphere!"
Drapion and Kangaskhan, who were covering the retreat, were struck by several moves and knocked out in a violent explosion.
Metagross kept using stones to block Hunter D's escape routes. "Metagross!" (Now's the time!)
Hunter D could barely dodge Metagross's stones, leaving him no time to worry about Dragapult.
Dragapult, who had been floating in midair, suddenly vanished.
Using Phantom Force, Dragapult appeared beside Hunter D in the blink of an eye.
Phantom Force successfully destroyed Hunter D's Armored Launcher, and green light gathered around Dragapult's tail.
Dragon Tail!
The sound of Dragon Tail cutting through the air rang out along the shore. Just as Hunter D was about to reach the ship, he was sent flying backward, his face contorted in pain.
Metagross used Body Slam.
Hunter D's limbs jerked upward for a moment before falling limply. He had passed out.
Hunter D was down for the count!
Li Wei's phone rang. At the same time, sirens drew closer from both sides. The police had arrived.
"It's me. I'm by the shore. Can you see Dragapult?"
"Yes!"
"Follow Dragapult over. I've caught the Pokémon Hunters. Sorry for the trouble, but please come take them away."
