"Bron~"

At the critical mont, Bronzong blocked in front of Tyranitar, forcefully taking dicham's punch. A sound like a loud bell rang out, and Bronzong's body involuntarily retreated.

"Ty~ran~"

Tyranitar was furious. If not for Bronzong's appearance, it would have probably knelt! Quadruple weakness to Fighting is no joke. But this was also a last resort, because its Dark type happened to counter dicham's Psychic type; it was the best among the worst options.

Seeing Bronzong arrive in ti, Basalt felt relieved.

dicham's movents were very fast; Bronzong and Tyranitar could hardly respond. But Hakamo-o possessed "Aura"; it could predict dicham's target through aura. After all, emotional aura cannot be faked. Just like a murderous look cannot be hidden.

And before dicham launched the attack, it secretly focused its attention on Tyranitar, which couldn't escape Hakamo-o's perception. So just now, Hakamo-o directly used telepathy to inform the battlefield core "Bronzong" of the discovery, leading to the thrilling scene just now.

"Reaction speed is excellent!" The lich old man smiled approvingly.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

Tyranitar's sand control power activated; the quicksand ground sank abruptly, trying to swallow dicham. But strangely, psychic power surged around dicham's body, and it floated directly into mid-air, unmoved at all.

Fortunately, Tyranitar used a two-pronged approach. The Quicksand Domain failed, but the Sandstorm Prison could still work. The sand in the air quickly gathered towards dicham, soon forming a huge prison.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

But soon, holes appeared on the surface of the prison, and dull noises sounded from inside. The Sandstorm Prison couldn't trap the Gym Leader-level dicham at all!

However, Tyranitar's Quicksand Domain was only ineffective against Honchkrow, Banette, and dicham; it was still effective against the old man's other Pokémon. Wherever the quicksand passed, Sableye, Zoroark, and Krookodile imdiately struggled to move, sinking into the quicksand unable to extricate themselves.

Buzz! Zeng!

Seeing this, Excadrill imdiately turned into a spiral energy body and charged out, straight at Sableye. Although Excadrill was only a Pro-level Pokémon, "Drill Run" had long been developed by it to an extrely high level.

Although Sableye's level was higher than Excadrill's, it had small arms and legs and dared not block at all. A gleam appeared in its jewel-like eyes; using the "Detect" skill, it easily avoided the attack.

Excadrill was fast, but Sableye reacted faster! Truly worthy of a Gym Leader-level Pokémon!

Pink light descended, enveloping the entire battlefield. It was Carbink; it used the "Dazzling Gleam" skill. Although Sableye's level was high, the level of Fairy-type energy in Carbink's body was also extrely high. Under the dazzling light, Sableye cried out repeatedly, as if suffering from scorching burns.

However, Sableye was obviously not easy to bully either. It turned around and struck with a "Shadow Claw," sending Carbink flying directly.

At the sa ti, Basalt's other Pokémon also used all their ans. Swampert launched "Instant Freeze" on Honchkrow, Hakamo-o cast "Aura Sphere" on the quicksand-trapped Zoroark, and Cradily wrapped its Root Domain towards Krookodile.

As for Carupt, lava flowed out of its body as if it cost nothing. In the blink of an eye, the temperature of the field was raised to an extrely high level, modifying the field and weather to be more unfavorable to the lich old man.

Although Banette turned invisible, it was soon burned by the high temperature. Not only it, but except for the two Gym Leader-level Pokémon, all the old man's other Pokémon were "Burned."

This was just the first clash.

Although Basalt was clearly at a disadvantage against the Gym Leader-level Sableye and dicham, his Pokémon clearly gained the upper hand against the lich old man's other Pokémon, catching the opponent off guard and forcing them to retreat steadily.

Quicksand Domain! Sandstorm Prison! Root Domain! High-temperature Fire Sand! Instant Freeze!

Although the lich old man was knowledgeable, he had really never seen the above moves in his life! His Pokémon, which were still at the Pro-level, were directly beaten into confusion.

After Honchkrow was frozen, Swampert imdiately followed up with a "Rock Slide," and then Carupt unleashed a full-range "Eruption." Caught off guard, Honchkrow knelt directly!

Most mbers of Basalt's sandstorm team had extrely strong fire resistance. Bronzong had achieved fire resistance long ago and shielded Hakamo-o and Basalt. Excadrill was afraid of fire, but with Bronzong's field control reminder, it had already entered the underground to hide at the right ti, waiting for an opportunity. When the flas disappeared, it drilled out from the ground violently and knocked Krookodile flying.

Thus, Krookodile, who had lost a lot of stamina absorbed by Cradily and endured Eruption, also knelt! Banette was scared out of its wits and quickly turned invisible again.

However, all this was not without cost.

On the battlefield, after Excadrill dug a hole, Carbink was targeted by Sableye and beaten fiercely, covered with injuries. If not for Carbink's stamina surge after absorbing the "Life Horn" and defense increase after refining the "Hard Stone," it would probably have knelt long ago.

"Swamp~"

Swampert ca to rescue furiously, but after Sableye dodged, it gave Swampert a claw. Not to ntion the deep claw marks appearing on its body, the wound was also attached with weird energy, and the blood flowing out was all black-purple.

"Swampert, retreat quickly!"

Basalt's eyes almost popped out. He saw such a serious injury for the first ti. And it looked poisoned!

"Swamp~"

Swampert just wanted to retreat, but its body paused and went limp on the ground directly.

"Sab~leye~"

Sableye laughed sinisterly. Its "Shadow Claw" had undergone special training; the corrosion power and toxins inside were particularly effective on flesh and blood bodies.

"Cra~dily~"

Seeing this, Cradily quickly controlled the roots to appear beside Swampert from the ground. Crystal clear dewdrops flowed from the top of the roots, sprinkling on Swampert's wound.

Sizzle sizzle~

As if water was boiling, purple-black smoke rose from Swampert. Soon, Swampert's wound regained its bloody color. However, Swampert's injury couldn't be recovered so quickly.

"Exc~a~drill~"

Seeing Swampert and Carbink seriously injured, Excadrill was both ashad and furious. It used all its strength, pushing its speed to the maximum, and charged at Sableye again, vowing to teach it a lesson.

"Sab~leye~"

A gleam shot out from Sableye's jewel-like eyes again; it had seen through everything about Excadrill.
