Execution (Thanks to Teyvat's Number One Coffin Merchant for Three Top Supporter Badges!)

"Doh!"

Aggron turned back and told Nick and Magearna to leave, taking responsibility for holding it back himself.

Although Nick nagged, he never dragged his feet when it came to taking action. He immediately led Magearna in climbing onto Torterra's back.

"Tor-tor~"

Torterra nudged Nick and Magearna onto his back with his head, then moved his four legs and ran off to the side.

Cautious as he was, however, he did not run too far, remaining somewhere everyone could support him.

"Ba-ga-boop!"

Magearna clasped both hands together, looking at the Pokémon and Trainers risking their lives to protect her, her heart filled with gratitude and guilt.

Espeon's eyes went wide as it strained with all its might to help Steelix escape Aggron's grip.

But it was already barely managing to keep Mega Steelix airborne. With the addition of the Heavy Metal Aggron, it could not drag them along at all.

"Doh!"

Aggron frantically used Iron Defense and Harden to raise his defense. He did not take the initiative to attack, simply keeping hold of Mega Steelix's tail to hinder his movements.

"You're asking to die!"

Dier stared furiously at Aggron, who was like a lump of iron. He could neither hurt him nor drag him away, leaving him completely helpless against him in the short term.

Watching his subordinates continue to fall, Dier roared, "Espeon, use Swift!"

The golden stars spun like darts as they sliced toward Aggron.

Without Espeon's psychic power holding him up, Mega Steelix crashed to the ground with a bang.

"Ah-cha!"

Infernape unleashed his full strength. A Flaming Giant Ape formed from blazing flames appeared behind him, bringing both fists together and smashing them down
