VS Wallace! Breaking through the limits! Entering the Champion domain! (Double-length! 4,000+)

"What was that...?"

Most of the spectators, who had never seen Steelix in this form, stared in shock at the dark-gold patterns winding around its body, light shimmering within them.

The imposing presence Steelix exuded had also changed dramatically.

The once-restrained mountain seemed to have become a volcano on the verge of eruption! Savage and overpowering, like a primordial beast.

Swampert's aura was now overwhelmed by its opponent's.

Then the boy's voice rang out again.

"Steelix! Keep up the momentum! Dragon Dance! Then finish it off! High Horsepower!!!"

"Hagaa-roar!!!"

The colossal beast's roar shook heaven and earth!

The air hummed, and currents swirled.

Steelix floated in midair, black electrical arcs seething around it. It twisted its body, a purple dragon shadow flashing and vanishing as its savage aura laid bare its full might!

The next instant, a deep-brown torrent, heavy as a mountain, spread along its body. A dense mantle of energy enveloped its entire frame!

In the air, a black mountain bore down on everything.

Roaring, Steelix plunged downward with unstoppable momentum, carrying the might of heaven and earth!

The torn air gave off a scorched smell as Steelix blasted a black trail straight through it, hurtling brutally toward Swampert!

There was not a trace of water left on the rubble-strewn battlefield, and the dark clouds overhead had long since dispersed.

Swampert had lost its home-field advantage, and using its fusion technique skill had left it terribly weakened.

With one side weakening while the other grew stronger, even though Master Wallace called out again,

"Swampert! Dodge, quickly!"

Swampert had been locked onto by Steelix's aura and had nowhere to escape!

The outcome was inevitable.

"CRASH!!!"

Another tremendous boom erupted from the ground!

Deep-brown waves of energy rampaged across the earth, their aftershocks sweeping in every direction and stirring low
