"Metagross versus Steelix! Begin!"
As the referee's announcement rang out, Heross shouted with an arrogant look on his face,
"Metagross! Meteor Mash!"
"Metang!"
Its four arms came together, gathering silvery-blue light at incredible speed! Powerful energy enveloped Metagross as it plunged from above like a real comet!
Yong's expression settled back into calm, and he spoke without a trace of fear,
"Steelix! Iron Tail!"
Power against power!
The massive tail swept out without any fancy tricks! Silvery-white light coiled around its dark metallic body! Rising from below, its enormous bulk filled Metagross's entire field of vision!
Bang!!!
The sharp crash rattled everyone's eardrums!
Steelix's tremendous power clashed with Metagross's brute strength, sending violent tremors through the air! Energy surged wildly, and the surrounding air rippled outward in every direction!
"Metang!"
The tremendous force knocked Metagross several meters backward!
Heross's eyes shifted slightly, and he shouted in disbelief,
"Impossible! Metagross! Don't hold back! Give it everything you've got! Use Hammer Arm!"
"Metang!"
Steelix's strength shocked even Metagross itself, but its excellent physical defense allowed it to recover quickly. Crimson light flared over all four arms as Fighting-type energy poured out!
Relatively speaking, Metagross wasn't weak, but unfortunately, sometimes sheer size really did make a difference!
Yong spoke softly,
"Steelix! High Horsepower!"
"Roar!!!"
It threw its head back and roared as dark brown energy erupted all over its body! What little water remained on the battlefield suddenly boiled, splashing high into the air as the earth trembled!
The phantom image of a mountain range stretched into the distance, bringing with it an ancient, untamed presence!
The sudden pressure nearly scrambled Metagross's brain. Its speeding body faltered for a moment, then a metallic sheen lit up its frame. A ring of silver-gray iron gates abruptly appeared around the battlefield, sealing it from above
