Three Victories

"Roar~"

With a roar, Vigoroth slapped its limbs against the ground and shot forward from where it stood.

A cold gleam flashed from its claws.

"Beautifly, fly upward and dodge!"

Junichi Hisada's response was correct.

Although Vigoroth was somewhat faster than Beautifly.

The advantage Aerial Pokemon possessed was something ground-bound Pokemon could not match.

Unless there was a vast difference in speed, charging in to attack at the start like this was genuinely unlikely to work.

Beautifly merely beat its wings with ease.

It pulled away from the leaping Vigoroth, leaving its Fury Swipes to strike nothing but air.

If this had been in the wild.

Vigoroth could have used external supports such as tree trunks and branches to leap in for attacks.

But on this most ordinary rocky battle field, naturally, there was nothing of the sort to help it.

Vigoroth could only stand on the ground and sigh at the butterfly.

"Roar."

Barering its fangs, Vigoroth continuously Taunted Beautifly in the sky.

A trace of savagery flashed through Beautifly's beautiful blue Compound Eyes.

Judging by Beautifly's appearance alone, perhaps few would believe that it was a highly aggressive Pokemon with a far from gentle temperament.

But that was the truth.

And compared to Butterfree, another butterfly Pokemon.

Beautifly's only advantage might have been its beautiful appearance.

Whether in temperament or combat capability, it was slightly inferior under equal conditions.

"Beautifly, use Poison Sting!"

Seeing this, Junichi Hisada immediately launched a counterattack.

Beautifly's long, slender, curved proboscis suddenly straightened.

A purple beam swiftly shot toward Vigoroth on the ground.

"Use Rock Slide to block it in front of you, then throw it back."

Considering that Vigoroth and he had virtually no coordination, Tetsuya's instructions were extremely detailed.

Fortunately.

Just as Yoshihiko Enishi had said.
