Gyarados's entire body was instantly covered in water, which took the shape of an ancient dragon. Its azure eyes gleamed, and it radiated an imposing presence.
Then Gyarados twisted its body, and the water dragon covering it moved along with it.
"Roar!"
Gyarados roared, and the water dragon opened its enormous jaws, smashing straight through Arcanine's Raging Flame Hound before slamming hard into Arcanine.
It sent Arcanine flying, smashing it deep into the stadium's perimeter wall.
That single blow from Gyarados knocked Arcanine out of the match in a flash.
With a troubled expression, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki recalled Arcanine and looked at Lin Guang, her gaze deeply complicated.
"So your Pokémon have mastered moves like that too."
Lin Guang smiled slightly and said, "That move your Arcanine just used was quite similar to the Great Dragon Fire Technique. You must have modified it, and its power was pretty impressive. An ordinary Pokémon Trainer would have lost already."
"And your Arcanine should have Pseudo-Champion-level strength by now."
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki rolled her eyes at Lin Guang and said, "Are you praising yourself in a roundabout way, or making fun of me? You still took it down in one move."
Lin Guang laughed. "I really wasn't thinking that. It was just an honest compliment. So which Pokémon will you send out next?"
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki took out a Poké Ball and said, "This one inherited true Wood Release. Your Gyarados is mine!"
"Here we go! Venusaur!"
The light of the Poké Ball faded, and Mega Venusaur's massive body appeared in the Battle Arena.
But attentive spectators soon noticed that Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's Venusaur differed from an ordinary Venusaur. Some had even begun looking up information about Venusaur in their Pokédexes.
After comparing them, they found that Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's Venusaur really was different from an ordinary one.
