The supporters for both sides continued to cheer for their respective trainers.
By a strange coincidence, the biker gang and Gary's beautiful cheerleaders ended up sitting in adjacent sections, forming two squads with completely different styles!
Unfortunately for the bikers, faced with a group of lovely and well-figured young women, many of them wore lecherous expressions, their eyes glued to the cheerleaders, having already lost all their previous intimidating aura.
On the field, Natsui was actually very surprised to see Fearow as well.
As the old Pokémon world saying goes, a humbled Ho-Oh is no match for a Fearow!
As a medium-sized bird Pokémon, setting aside the jokes about its resemblance to Ho-Oh, Fearow had a long, slender neck, rough and messy feathers, and its most iconic features were its red crest and long, sharp pink beak.
It was said that their temperament was very irritable and quick to anger, and their wide wings allowed them to carry heavy loads and fly for an entire day without feeling too tired.
Originally, Natsui hadn't put much thought into this battle. He had simply assumed that as the match progressed, the ice surface would crack and break, revealing the pool water underneath. Once water was in play, the utility of an Electric-type Pokémon would increase significantly.
But who would have thought that Gary would send out a Flying-type Pokémon that was weak to Electric!
I really don't know what he was thinking...
Hmph, he must be too young!
When the referee signaled the start of the match, Natsui gave a decisive command.
"Jolteon, use Thundershock!"
A thick bolt of electricity shot out from Jolteon towards Fearow, but with a slight flap of its wings, Fearow soared into the air, dodging the attack!
On the other side, Gary knew he was at a type disadvantage, but his pride wouldn't let him switch his Pokémon so easily right at the beginning of the battle.
Doing so would inevitably make him look timid and open him up to ridicule!
However, at that moment, Thundershock was still being fired continuously, and Fearow was still flying around, frantically dodging the attacks. Seeing this, Gary quickly cleared his mind of distracting thoughts and decided to fight back, attempting to struggle through!
After all, there were countless examples of the weak defeating the strong and winning against type disadvantages!
"Fearow, use Aerial Ace!"
Fearow began to circle in the sky, swooping quickly over Jolteon's head. Its sharp eyes were locked onto Jolteon, searching for a can't-miss opportunity!
"Jolteon, get into that cluster of ice blocks over there!"
Hearing Natsui's command, Jolteon leaped several times and dove between dozens of ice blocks. Using these as cover would effectively obstruct Fearow's line of sight and reduce the number of angles from which it could be attacked, making it easier to dodge!
However, the wide-open view from high in the sky still allowed Fearow to lock onto its target after circling a few times!
The next second, as it dived, Fearow's wings began to glow faintly, and it rushed towards Jolteon at an incredible speed!
Just as it reached Jolteon, it suddenly accelerated again, delivering the attack while instantly changing direction to fly back into the sky!
Aerial Ace, activated!
Bang! Ice shards flew everywhere!
The shockwave and slash from Aerial Ace shattered the ice blocks around Jolteon. Although Jolteon tried to dodge, Aerial Ace was too fast, and it was still sent flying.
However, despite its impressive appearance, the move only dealt half damage to Jolteon due to typing!
As Jolteon landed steadily and saw Fearow about to return to the sky, Natsui immediately shouted, "Don't let it get away, use Thunderbolt!"
Jolteon's body erupted in a fierce light, and at the same time, dozens of massive electrical currents spread out randomly towards the sky!
Fearow swerved left and right, trying to evade, but although it dodged a few bolts, it was ultimately caught off guard and struck squarely!
Sparks crackled loudly!
This time, the effect was super effective, dealing double damage!
Fearow cried out in pain, its feathers seemingly scorched. Seeing this, Gary no longer hesitated. Casting aside his pride, he quickly took out a Poké Ball and recalled Fearow.
Tch, so it still wasn't enough!
After thinking for a long time, he sent out his second Pokémon.
As the blue light faded, a Nidoking appeared on the field!
"Wow? It's a Nidoking!" the announcer exclaimed. "Although Ground is immune to Electric and deals double damage to it, is choosing this Pokémon on an Ice Field really a good choice?"
Hearing the announcer's words, Gary remained expressionless.
This Nidoking, along with his Arcanine and Blastoise, was one of his aces. It had battled alongside him for a long time, winning him many victories, and was a very trustworthy partner!
Sending out Nidoking was a move of necessity.
After all, from his previous observations and the current exchange, it was clear that Natsui's Pokémon were very strong. His other Pokémon, whether they were Grass-type, Dragon-type, or even an Ice-type with a field advantage, were much weaker than Nidoking. Even if he sent them out, they might not be able to defeat this Jolteon!
However, now that he had sent out Nidoking, Natsui would surely switch his Pokémon. He had no idea what Natsui would use to battle him next.
On the trainer's platform, Natsui glanced down at Jolteon's feet.
There, after the recent Thunderbolt, the immense electrical current and heat had caused fine cracks to appear in the thick ice under Jolteon. Although it hadn't yet affected other parts of the field, the ice surface was no longer as solid as before.
Although both trainers sent out their Pokémon at the same time at the start, the type advantage allowed Natsui to gain the upper hand when it came to switching Pokémon.
As they say, an early lead leads to a lead at every step. Therefore, he would naturally extend this advantage and would not foolishly use an Electric-type to fight a Ground-type Nidoking.
Shifting his gaze, Natsui looked at the Nidoking before him.
The most prominent features of this large, purple, bipedal Pokémon were its thick tail, powerful forelimbs, and the sharp, poisonous horn on its head!
And based on his knowledge of Gary, he knew that this was one of his strongest Pokémon, so he didn't dare to be careless!
Recalling Jolteon, Natsui also opened his second Poké Ball.
"Come on out, Gyarados!"
With a tremendous roar, the imposing Gyarados landed heavily on the ice surface!
Its blood-red eyes stared intently at the enemy before it, and its open mouth revealed sharp fangs!
Seeing it, Gary instinctively gritted his teeth.
Tch, Water against Ground, another type advantage?
How boring! Can't this guy fight me head-on without relying on type matchups!?
