Courtney's Pokémon was still that Camerupt, but this time she also sent out a Weezing. One fought in the air and the other on the ground, coordinating their attacks.
Although the other elite Team Magma members used the same kinds of Pokémon as the ordinary members, theirs were undoubtedly a cut above in strength.
The arrival of these mainstays instantly boosted the morale of Team Magma, whose prolonged assault had made no headway, and Xia You had to devote most of his attention to fighting them.
Through Telepathy, Xia You's commands reached his Pokémon's minds with precision.
Charizard, use Flamethrower to drive away those Golbat overhead. Don't let them attack from the air!
Blastoise, switch from Water Gun to Hydro Pump and aim at those Camerupt. They're slower and easier to hit!
Jolteon, use your speed advantage to draw those Mightyena's attention and make them chase you!
Suicune, use your most powerful move and hit wherever the Pokémon are thickest!
And you, Gengar! Stop holding back. Go all out and show these people your true strength!
Under his command, all his Pokémon sprang into action, each with a clear role. With support from Misty's Pokémon, they barely held off this wave of Team Magma's attack. Although there was constant back-and-forth, they largely kept the battle line at the foot of the peak where he stood!
But this stalemate was not the outcome he wanted.
Turning to Gardevoir beside him, Xia You said, "Go down and help them too."
Gardevoir hesitated.
Seeing its concern, Xia You laughed. "It's fine. Don't worry, go ahead. We still have Psyduck here, don't we? I'm sure it'll protect us."
Psyduck?
Gardevoir cast Psyduck a cold glance and saw it standing there blankly, looking back with its head tilted.
It really couldn't entrust its Trainer's safety
