Giovanni, who had recently been agonizing over how to rebuild his relationship with Silver, was delighted.
At last, he could show off in a field he excelled at-and one his son was interested in.
His sharp gaze settled on the trainer avatar named [Shuiye] on the screen, and he snorted inwardly.
It's an honor for you to face me, Giovanni!
And your defeat will serve a worthy purpose by improving my relationship with Silver!
At that moment, the [Perish Song] countdown had only forty seconds left.
"Keep going! Heat Wave and Weather Ball, focus fire on Gothitelle!"
Even Giovanni had no particularly good answer to this situation. All he could do was try to defeat Gothitelle, whose Ability was [Shadow Tag], and escape the field.
Otherwise, once Politoed came out and used [Perish Song] again, even Shadow Tag's assistance might not be necessary.
Two Perish Songs could very well pull off the feat of taking down four Pokémon!
Meanwhile, "Shuiye's" Gothitelle used [Psyshock] on Jumpluff.
It wasn't really about dealing damage. There was simply nothing else to do, so why sit idle?
In the middle of the "Protect, don't Protect, Protect" sequence, any move would do.
Heat Wave and Weather Ball failed to do much damage to Gothitelle.
Most Psychic-type Pokémon had absurdly high special bulk, and Gothitelle was no exception.
How much firepower could a support Pokémon and a weather setter that only doubled as an attacker really muster?
At least Gothitelle's HP bar remained comfortably above half.
Meanwhile, the [Perish Song] countdown dropped to thirty seconds.
Giovanni said coldly, "Target Kingdra with Solar Beam! Weather Ball on Gothitelle!"
Gothitelle was bound to use Protect. Rather than waste damage, he might as well whittle down the sleeping Kingdra's HP bar first!
But the Psyshock Gothitelle unleashed made Giovanni frown.
