Lopunny did indeed look much like a rabbit on Earth. It had pink eyes, a small nose, and two long eyebrows. Its whole body was brown, except for its feet and tufts of fur, which were cream-colored.
But it was not to be underestimated just because it really was a rabbit.
Even a cornered rabbit would bite, let alone one in this wondrous world of Pokémon.
Besides, the fact that Whitney sent it out at this point proved that this Lopunny must have strengths that she trusted immensely!
On the other side, with Tyranitar and Scizor having each fought a battle already, Xia You sent out his Dragonite this time.
At present, these three Pokémon of his were all still growing and could not yet hold their own like Gardevoir and Charizard, so taking turns training was essential.
Both sides took their stances, ready for battle.
As the referee swung down her flag and the third battle began, this Lopunny immediately showed what made it unusual.
It charged toward Dragonite at once. With its well-developed leg muscles, it closed the distance between them remarkably quickly with just a few hops.
Before reaching Dragonite, it leaped upward again, jumping into the air before bringing its feet together and launching a flying kick at Dragonite!
Although Xia You could have ordered Dragonite to fly up and evade it, he chose not to, intending instead to take Lopunny head-on!
Since you like attacking head-on so much, bring it on!
"Dragonite, use Dragon Rage!"
Facing Lopunny's airborne kick, Dragonite opened its mouth and sent a blue-green shock wave sweeping toward it.
But just as Dragon Rage was about to hit, Lopunny suddenly twisted nimbly, then spun several times in midair, actually keeping itself aloft for a while. Only after Dragon Rage's shock wave passed
