Xia You naturally saw the electricity coursing over Chinchou, but he remained unmoved, simply watching calmly as his Blastoise charged into Chinchou!
Compared to Chinchou's size, Blastoise was like a heavy truck bearing down on it with tremendous force, leaving it no time to dodge. Besides, it had never intended to dodge in the first place.
The instant Blastoise struck it, Chinchou's entire body flew seven or eight meters backward. Without the slightest chance to struggle, it was knocked straight into the water, sending up sheets of spray.
