Once both sides were ready, the free-for-all began!
Unexpectedly, right from the start, Ash and Brock both chose to focus their first attacks on Xia You's Pokémon without consulting each other!
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt! Noctowl, use Air Slash!"
"Onix, hurry and use Tackle! Golbat, use Supersonic!"
It was clearly a six-on-six battle, yet under their commands, the four Pokémon completely ignored Erika and Misty on the sidelines. As if they had planned it beforehand, they worked in perfect harmony, attacking Dragonair and Larvitar together!
The four aggressive Pokémon surrounded Xia You's Dragonair and Larvitar. In an instant, they unleashed all kinds of moves at once, covering the two Pokémon from every direction!
There was no dodging now. Although Dragonair and Larvitar used moves to resist, they were outnumbered. After some of the moves canceled each other out, the remaining two attacks still retained their power and continued flying toward them.
With no other choice, they could only take the barrage head-on!
Boom!
When the dust from the explosion cleared, both Pokémon could be seen with injuries of varying severity!
Clearly, Ash and Brock knew Xia You's strength too. They knew he was undoubtedly the strongest among them, so to win this free-for-all, dealing with Xia You first was their top priority!
Seeing them target him like this, Xia You shook his head in amusement.
These two...
What grudge could they possibly have against me?
No fair play at all, ganging up on me like this!
But it did not matter. Since this was a match for fun, winning or losing was not that important. Even with Ash and Brock giving him special attention, he still had no intention of issuing commands, instead letting his Pokémon fight freely.
On the field, although Dragonair and Larvitar were surrounded, they lost none of
