"Protect!"
Basalt's face was gloomy.
Ice Shard is an Ice-type priority move. With Carbink's speed, no other move except "Protect" was fast enough to block it. Crucially, Carbink was already at low health.
"Carb~ink~"
A white light appeared above its head forming a light shield, and the sharp ice shards shattered upon impact.
"Carbink, Mystical Fire!"
Basalt clenched his fists.
Fire-type moves are super effective against the Ice-type Froslass. Moreover, with the trump card "Magic Coat," Froslass dared not use status moves casually.
"Without Bronzong here, I'm really not used to it!"
Basalt sighed. Against opponents who weren't particularly strong before, he could just lead his Pokémon to crush them. But when facing opponents of similar strength with tricky thods, Bronzong was needed. The nth day of missing Bronzong!
Facing the sweeping flas, Froslass decisively condensed a dark Shadow Ball to hide behind it. The two exploded in the air, smoke obscuring the vision. Taking advantage of this gap, Froslass turned into a black shadow again, hitting Carbink directly with very fast speed.
Ghost-type move: Night Shade!
But just then, a burst of blinding red light suddenly erupted from Carbink, illuminating the entire field.
Dazzling Gleam!
Unexpectedly, Froslass wasn't repelled by Dazzling Gleam. It actually forcefully withstood the flashing Fairy-type energy, using a trade-injury-for-injury tactic to collide with Carbink.
Thus, the already low-health Carbink fell.
"You worked hard, Carbink!"
Recalling Carbink, Basalt whispered a few words to the Pokéball in his hand. When he opened his eyes again, the guilt in his eyes flashed by, replaced by determination.
Although Wang Botao's move exceeded Basalt's expectations, the cost wasn't small either. Froslass, having forcefully withstood Dazzling Gleam, was now panting heavily, obviously low on stamina.
"Go, Tyranitar!"
Basalt had no choice but to release Tyranitar. Because his remaining three Pokémon—Excadrill, Swampert, and Carupt—were either power-type or elental-type Pokémon, lacking ans to deal with tricky moves.
"Ty~ran~"
The mont Tyranitar took the field, the sand on the field seed to answer the leader's call, becoming violent entirely. The sandstorm beca stronger and stronger. Hitting Froslass, the speed of stamina erosion also beca faster and faster, making Froslass frown greatly. However, seeing Tyranitar's huge body, Froslass involuntarily licked its lips. Its favorite prey was this kind of huge, energetic prey!
"The Desert Tyrant finally appeared. But against Froslass, it's hard to say who wins and who loses."
"By the way, where did Basalt's Bronzong go? Honestly, I quite like Bronzong; it has power and variety, simply a hexagon warrior, proficient in everything with no weakness."
There were many old fans of Basalt on the scene who knew his Pokémon very well. Unfortunately, no one could answer their question.
"Ice Shard!"
Wang Botao used the sa routine, letting the priority move go first. Ice Shard hit, and a layer of frost condensed on Tyranitar's body, making it slightly stiff. However, possessing a terrifying physique, Tyranitar just moved slightly and controlled the sand to wipe off the frost on its body.
Seeing this, Froslass repeated its old trick, turning into a black shadow again and quickly attacking Tyranitar, trying to make physical contact with Tyranitar to trigger the Cursed Body ability.
But unexpectedly, before the black shadow descended, Tyranitar controlled the sand to surround itself into a ball.
Secret Technique: Sandstorm Prison!
Only this ti, Tyranitar imprisoned not soone else, but itself.
"Think hiding and being a shrinking turtle will work? Froslass, smash its shell for !"
Wang Botao sneered and shouted, "Shadow Ball!"
Boom!
Shadow Ball hit the Sandstorm Prison, blasting a considerable hole in it. However, as the sandstorm swept and flowed, the sand in the air quickly filled the gap under Tyranitar's control. Before long, the Sandstorm Prison was restored as before.
"Is he trying to drag Froslass to death with the sandstorm?"
Wang Botao saw through Basalt's intent. Because under the sandstorm weather, Froslass was losing stamina every mont. And Froslass had fought many battles consecutively and suffered from "Stealth Rock" attacks; its stamina was already low.
However, Wang Botao naturally wouldn't let Basalt succeed easily: "Blizzard!"
Wang Botao increased the attack intensity. He didn't believe Froslass couldn't break this sandstorm ball.
The blizzard carrying snowstorm appeared, freezing the Sandstorm Prison directly. Imdiately after, multiple Shadow Balls appeared, blasting the Sandstorm Prison along with the frost outside into fragnts.
But unexpectedly, Tyranitar's figure was long gone inside the Sandstorm Prison. A shiny big hole was exposed inside. Obviously, Tyranitar had dug a hole and run away!
"Holy crap, this Tyranitar has sothing! Even reinforced concrete was dug into such a big hole by it!"
In the audience, soone exclaid. This was a Water Field; after the water was sucked dry by Cradily, the bottom of the pool was reinforced concrete. But even reinforced concrete couldn't stop Tyranitar's digging.
As the hole was exposed, Tyranitar hiding sowhere underground began to control the sand again, concealing the hole directly. Not only that, the sandstorm from the hole continued to overflow, soon covering the bottom of the pool with a thick layer of sand. The original pool turned directly into sand dunes. Tyranitar was camping (hiding/turtling)!
"This..."
Wang Botao was stunned. Because he suddenly realized that Froslass seed to have no ans to damage Pokémon hiding underground. Earthquake? Bulldoze? Earth Power? Froslass knew none of them!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~
The sandstorm was still sweeping and had a tendency to beco more and more violent, making Froslass's stamina drain faster and faster. Wang Botao shivered involuntarily, a feeling of powerlessness rising in his heart.
What to do? Recall Froslass? But Froslass was already at low health. Even if recalled now, next ti it appeared, it would be taken away directly by "Stealth Rock." But if not recalled, Froslass couldn't last a few rounds. Stamina really didn't allow it!
Froslass knew "Draining Kiss," a move to recover HP, but with Tyranitar hiding underground, it couldn't suck it! As for using "Hail" to snatch the weather? Wang Botao didn't even dare to think about it!
"Froslass, Spikes!"
Taking a deep breath, Wang Botao let Froslass scatter a layer of spikes, then helplessly recalled it and sent out his fifth Pokémon.
This was a Pokémon mostly black all over, with a ghost-like tail but no feet. It had a gray head with a yellow antenna on top, a yellow band on its forehead, and a glaring eye below with a yellow iris and red pupil. On its torso were two almond-shaped eye-like markings and a yellow horizontal zigzag line that could open like a mouth. There was also a face-like marking on its back.
It was the Ghost-type Pokémon—Dusknoir!
Dusknoir appeared and enjoyed a hit of Stealth Rock first. However, its defenses were extrely excellent, and Stealth Rock couldn't cause considerable damage to it.
"Dusknoir, Earthquake!" Wang Botao shouted angrily.
Froslass was helpless against underground Pokémon, but Dusknoir could handle it. Using Earthquake, the effect on underground Pokémon is doubled. And Rock-type Tyranitar itself is doubly weak to Ground; with this addition, it's quadruple damage. It seed the pseudo-legendary Tyranitar's first league defeat would fall into his hands.
"Dusk~noir~"
The huge and tall Dusknoir understood, descending quickly and punching the ground heavily.
But just then, the sand at the bottom of the pool suddenly rotated, turning into a huge flowing vortex in the blink of an eye.
Secret Technique: Quicksand Domain!
Dusknoir's heavy punch landed on the Quicksand Domain, but the seismic waves dissipated before traveling five ters, posing no threat to Tyranitar underneath.
Wang Botao felt like he was struck by lightning, his head buzzing, dumbfounded. Never seen such a shaless fighting style! Not only camping underground and not coming out, but also nullifying Earthquake; too damn cowardly! In this way, all of Dusknoir's thods were reduced to zero and ineffective. So frustrating!
"Dusknoir, Perish Song!"
Forced, Wang Botao could only use the last resort. Perish Song, Pokémon hearing the song will faint directly after a certain ti. This is a move to perish together. But at this mont, Wang Botao had to use it.
Perish together? Basalt certainly wouldn't do it. Under his command, Tyranitar finally drilled out from the ground again. However, as soon as Tyranitar appeared, it was hit directly by a black light shot from Dusknoir's eye.
an Look, a move preventing Pokémon from switching out.
Now, Tyranitar could only fight to the death. It first used sand to form a wall blocking Wang Botao's path to recall Dusknoir with a Pokéball. Both roared endlessly, unleashing Dark-type moves one after another. Snarl, Dark Pulse, Brutal Swing...
After Tyranitar stopped camping, it hamred Dusknoir fiercely. However, Dusknoir's defenses were truly excellent, and it had many weird changing thods; Tyranitar couldn't kill it in a short ti.
In the end, Perish Song successfully fernted, and both Tyranitar and Dusknoir fell simultaneously.
Then, Wang Botao released his last Pokémon—Chandelure. Stealth Rock activated again, and Chandelure's HP drained frantically.
And Basalt still had Excadrill, Carupt, and Swampert. In the end, under three against one, Basalt's record was 5:6 (remaining Pokémon), considered a difficult victory. As for Froslass, sending it out would be giving it away, so might as well not!
"Basalt won! Aweso!"
On the Sanctuary Club side, everyone was excited. Especially Zhang Dongliang, who almost jumped for joy. One point secured, goal achieved!
"Basalt, count yourself lucky this ti; my ace Pokémon Gengar is accepting an inheritance. Otherwise, you would have lost without a doubt."
Wang Botao looked at Basalt, silently clenching his fists, sighing secretly in his heart.
Coincidentally at this ti, Basalt also looked at Wang Botao, thinking to himself, "Damn, if not for Bronzong learning new skills, I would have beaten you starting with at least 2:6!"
