"Froga!"
(No, seriously, even this chapter has a problem?! I'll accept my other chapters getting blocked and taken down for revision because of the smut, but what's wrong with this one?!)
Seeing its master again, Frogadier was so excited that it wanted to give Barbaracle a hug. But they were in the middle of a battle, so dealing with these Pokémon had to come first.
It also saw Rhyperior lying on the ground, along with the badly injured Cacturne and Hariyama, and little stars of admiration involuntarily shone in its eyes.
Master really was so strong!
Even fighting five opponents alone, Master could do this! When would I be able to do what Master did?
"Bastard!" the man screamed hysterically. "We're fighting to the bitter end today! Jolteon, use Thunderbolt! Toxicroak, use Close Combat! Cacturne, use Needle Arm!"
"Noi!" Seeing its big brother surrounded, Noibat anxiously wanted to rush over and help, but Cheng Tian stopped it.
"Noibat, just set up Tailwind." A sharp gleam flashed in Cheng Tian's eyes. "You should take a good look too, and see just how strong Frogadier's master is."
With Tailwind up, Frogadier and Barbaracle vanished simultaneously. The next instant, Aerial Ace slammed into Cacturne.
Caught by a sneak attack from behind, Cacturne took a considerable hit. It swung its Needle Arm backward, only to strike a sharp claw.
Barbaracle swatted it away with one claw just as Jolteon's Thunderbolt arrived. Barbaracle stamped a foot on the ground, raising a row of sharp rocks that blocked Thunderbolt and struck back at the same time.
Jolteon was about to dodge when a Whirlpool rose and trapped it, and Stone Edge struck it head-on.
A pointed rock drove into Jolteon's belly, lifting it up. Frogadier reappeared and brought an Ice Punch hammering down on its forehead.
