The battle began, and this time, Kiawe made the first move!
He seized the initiative!
"Raging Blaze, use Rock Slide!"
At Kiawe's command, Raging Blaze let out a thunderous roar and slammed its right leg into the ground.
Bang!
The battlefield shook!
In an instant, the scorched earth split apart, sending countless rock fragments bursting upward in a dense barrage. They hurtled toward Volcarona like cannonballs.
Yong said softly,
"Volcarona! Dodge with Quiver Dance!"
"Wooo~!"
An elegant, lingering cry echoed across the battlefield. Volcarona fluttered its wings, its movements seemingly slow, yet nimble enough to weave through the gaps between the flying rocks, continually evading its opponent's assault!
It seemed to dance through the air, moving lightly and gracefully as though performing a magnificent dance.
Every beat of its wings released pale yellow and red-gold light, like glittering gems adorning them.
Volcarona's body had smooth, graceful contours, its abdomen full and rounded. A faint golden glow flowed around it!
Kiawe's expression grew solemn!
I can't let it keep boosting itself!
Volcarona's Quiver Dance not only increases its evasiveness, but also greatly boosts its special attack. I have to interrupt it, or there'll be no end to the trouble!
Salazzle's fate was warning enough!
"Raging Blaze! Rock Tomb and Fire Spin! Interrupt its movements!"
Yong smiled faintly.
Just as I thought...
So he's using the faster Rock Tomb and the wider-ranging Fire Spin?
A combination of Rock and Fire... but that alone won't bring you victory, Mr. Kiawe!
He watched the fiercely burning flames whirl around a dense mass of rock fragments, surging toward Volcarona in a ring. A volatile energy field filled the flames, turning them black and red!
The ground began to tremble beneath Raging Blaze's feet. Black-and-red flames wound upward around its body, spiraling endlessly as they roared
