After dodging Aerodactyl's attack, Speed Boost had already activated.
Yanmega successfully overtook its opponent in speed and finished Aerodactyl off with an Ancient Power.
After hitting an opponent, this move had a chance to awaken a Pokémon's ancient power and boost all its stats, but the odds were low, so it didn't trigger.
Qingyu didn't mind. He had only been trying his luck anyway.
What could he do when this was the only Rock-type move Yanmega knew, and even a requirement for its evolution?

Dratini were practically overrunning Casseroya Lake!
Back to the battle.
Immediately upon entering the field, Dragonite raised a massive rock, and Qingyu promptly issued the same command:
