Nimbasa Gym.
After Plasma Fists and Giga Impact collided,
the arena fell silent for a moment.
No one knew who started clapping first,
but thunderous applause soon erupted.
Meanwhile, Li Wei declared that he was going blind. The flashes from the media section nearly lit the battlefield up like daylight!
In this three-on-three match,
Li Wei had used only Zeraora to decisively defeat Zebstrika, Emolga, and Luxray.
There were powerful Trainers among the spectators.
They could tell that Elesa had already given it her all, and that Li Wei had actually held back.
In other words, Li Wei was strong enough to overwhelm a Gym Leader completely, further confirming that his strength rivaled that of the Elite Four.
Elesa was no weakling. Although she did not rival the Elite Four or Champions like Raihan, Koga, and Norman did,
she still ranked among the best.
Yet even Elesa had been swept by Li Wei and Zeraora, with Zeraora taking virtually no damage.
The gap between them was obvious.
Diancie, Lucario, and Meloetta clapped softly. "Shaymin!"
Li Wei patted Zeraora on the shoulder.
"Thanks for the hard work."
Zeraora answered with a low growl.
It had hardly been any trouble. Zeraora had enjoyed it, too.
Walking over to Elesa with Zeraora, Li Wei handed her a golden Pokéblock.
"This restores stamina. It works better than a Potion, but you should still go to the Pokémon Center for a checkup."
"Thank you."
Elesa accepted the golden Pokéblock and fed it to Luxray, then sprayed on a Potion.
After recalling Luxray into a Poké Ball,
Elesa stood and looked at Li Wei and Zeraora, her eyes filled with genuine admiration and delight.
"So powerful... simply flawless."
This top-level showdown between "electric cats" had ended in an absolute victory for Zeraora.
But the fierce sparks
