Although Dazzling Gleam is less precise than psychic power, as a light-based area-of-effect move, it could also cover the entire battlefield. Under the full coverage of Fairy-type energy, Espeon's Teleport was imdiately disrupted.
"Good chance!"
Basalt seized the opportunity and shouted, "Excadrill, Drill Run!"
"Dorong-ss~"
Folding its body into a tal drill, Excadrill shot out like a stream of light. As a Sandstorm Pokémon, it could locate Espeon through the sand; Haze and Dazzling Gleam's visual interference had no effect on it.
Although Electivire and Espeon were high-agility Pokémon, compared to Excadrill with its activated Sand Rush ability, they were insignificant. The speed of the light stream was too fast, and combined with being targeted, they had no ti to dodge.
But just then, a strange energy swept out from Dusknoir, causing the entire space to tremble slightly.
Subsequently, Basalt saw Excadrill's speed abruptly slow down, moving at a snail's pace, while Dusknoir moved with ghostly speed, punching Excadrill and sending it flying.
"Dorong-ss~"
Excadrill cried out in pain, letting out fierce howls, but its movents were stuttered.
Basalt was stunned for a mont, then imdiately roared, "Nul, Eruption!"
Boom!
From Nul's humps, scorching flas carrying devastating power shot out at extre speed. In terms of speed, Nul seed even faster than Dusknoir.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The flas hit Dusknoir one after another. Under the terrifying high temperature, even Dusknoir with its excellent defenses ended up scorched black, wailing repeatedly. Moreover, Nul's high-temperature flas triggered a burn once again.
"Trying to use Trick Room to handle ? Dream on!"
Basalt sneered.
In terms of speed, he had both fast and slow options. The opponent only saw that Trick Room neutralized his top fighter, Excadrill, but didn't know it simultaneously enhanced Nul's strength. With Nul's fla temperature, if it could guarantee the first move, its threat level was absolutely no less than Excadrill's.
"Excadrill, Drill Run again!"
"Nul, Eruption again!"
Basalt gave the opponent a dilemma. Continue Trick Room, and Eruption hits. Cancel Trick Room, and Drill Run hits. Protect Espeon or protect Dusknoir—your choice!
Ultimately, Hunter Jane chose Espeon.
However, before the flas landed, a black mist energy suddenly appeared on Dusknoir and fell onto Excadrill with extre speed. Imdiately, Excadrill's aura plumted, swallowed by the scorching flas. At the sa ti, Excadrill's mighty body paused and finally collapsed slowly.
"Damn it, it's Destiny Bond!"
Basalt clenched his fists.
With his two main forces absent and his top fighter Excadrill taken out, Basalt felt a chill run down his spine. Crucially, now he couldn't even retreat! Losing might an death!
With Dusknoir fainting, Trick Room collapsed on its own.
In the sky, Pupitar still couldn't do anything about Staraptor.
On the ground, Espeon and Electivire returned to their normal speed and began to flank and approach. Although Swampert created a swamp to restrict the two Pokémon to the outside, Espeon and Electivire had plenty of ranged moves, so Swampert and Nul were eventually suppressed.
"Carbink, are you willing to listen to my command?"
Basalt pinned his hopes on Carbink. Although Carbink had helped him twice, it couldn't coordinate with the other Pokémon, making its impact minimal. To utilize its potential, Basalt needed to plan and deploy everything uniformly.
So Basalt said solemnly, "You saw it too; that poacher is a typical bad guy. If we don't work together, I will die, Pupitar will be sold, and you will be killed for your diamonds. If you want to live, you must trust and listen to my command!"
"Carb~ink~"
Carbink nodded. It wasn't stupid; it could distinguish friend from foe.
"In that case, you're responsible for protecting !"
Basalt was overjoyed, then his gaze sharpened as he shouted, "Swampert, attack!"
"Swamp-pert~"
Swampert was pleasantly surprised. As a vanguard general, being a bodyguard didn't suit it. Eyeing Electivire, Swampert used its fins and gills to sense the moisture in the air. Monts later, lock-on complete!
Splash!
Water surged around it, and Swampert shot into the sky, pouncing on the target with invincible spirit.
Waterfall!
Electivire tried to use its high agility to dodge but found it couldn't escape Swampert's tracking no matter what. Forced, it t the attack head-on, clenching its fists and punching out fiercely.
Focus Punch!
"Now!"
Seeing the timing was right, Basalt waved his hand. "Carbink, Helping Hand!"
Helping Hand, a support move that boosts the power of an ally's move. The pure energy within Carbink attached to Swampert, causing the water flow around the latter to surge again, its power skyrocketing.
Electivire was knocked to the ground. Swampert pinned Electivire down with its left hand, clenched its right fist gathering Ice-type energy, and punched down fiercely.
Electivire tried to use its tails to bind Swampert's fist to stop it from falling. But Swampert's strength was too great; how could Electivire's tails stop it?
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Ice Punches landed one after another, beating Electivire into an ice sculpture amidst its wails.
Espeon tried to rescue it but was intercepted by Carbink's Dazzling Gleam and Nul's Lava Plu. Before long, Electivire also fainted.
Then, Swampert, Nul, and Carbink all turned their gazes to Espeon, who shuddered.
From absolute suppression to being suppressed, the reversal ca too fast, leaving Hunter Jane stunned. She, like Espeon, had thoughts of retreating. Continuing the fight might trap her as well.
Whistling, Hunter Jane decisively ordered a retreat. She recalled Espeon but didn't forget to grit her teeth and threaten before leaving, "Brat, I'll rember you! You'd better stay in China forever, or I'll make you pay."
It was no wonder Jane gnashed her teeth. Electivire and Rapidash were one thing, but Dusknoir was her sub-controller, and Zoroark was her trump card for successful poaching. But now, all gone!
"Pupitar, co back, don't chase!"
Basalt called back Pupitar, who was ready to pursue. He knew the principle of not chasing a desperate enemy. Besides, in terms of speed, Pupitar was far from a match for Staraptor; chasing would be futile.
With the danger lifted, Basalt smiled and squatted down. "Carbink, thanks to you this ti!"
"Carb~ink~"
A sincere cooperation improved Carbink's attitude towards Basalt significantly. However, being a tsundere, it turned its head away, pretending not to want to look at Basalt.
"You guy..."
Basalt smiled helplessly. But he could feel that after this battle, half of Carbink's ntal knot had been untied.
After Hunter Jane left, Basalt's distress signal finally went through.
Less than five minutes later, a middle-aged man riding a Skarmory landed and asked loudly, "Are you the one who sent the distress signal?"
