The Crustle, determined to fight to the bitter end, watched as the fast-approaching Chansey came toward it. Between its claws, it gathered a terrifying giant rock, far larger than itself, and hurled it fiercely.
[Rock Cannon]!
Rumble—
The massive rock, shrouded in the same red glow, whistled as it flew, its speed far surpassing the previous Rock Burst, like a small mountain soaring through the air.
"Lucky!"
Chansey saw this, but showed no sign of panic. Just as the Rock Cannon was about to hit, it unhesitatingly used Minimize.
With its body suddenly shrinking, it narrowly brushed past the Rock Cannon, which landed behind it with a terrifying crash, scattering stones like flying bullets.
But Chansey avoided those as well.
Crustle looked on in disbelief, never imagining that the other's evasion skills could be so exaggerated. The insecurity from the crushing stones welled up within, prompting it to try and run away, but it found itself in the stiff phase of the Rock Cannon.
Unable to move for the moment.
"Yi wa!"
It cried out, trying to intimidate Chansey into keeping its distance.
But Chansey, having found such a good opportunity, was not about to give up. As it reached Crustle, it blushed and stuffed its little fist into Crustle's mouth.
"Mmm!"
Crustle's eyes widened, its throat involuntarily swallowing. It felt as if it had swallowed something particularly bitter and stimulating, "Yi wa!"
What did you make me eat?
Wait! Is this how you battle? Feeding others in a match?
"Yi wa! Yi wa!"
The panicked Crustle tried to spit out what it had swallowed, but soon the poison took effect, and everything it regurgitated turned into violet bubbles.
The excruciating pain in its abdomen left it dizzy and befuddled.
Attempting to flee, it saw Chansey smile faintly as it used Telekinesis to firmly lock it in mid-air again.
And this time.
Under the strong control of the opponent, Crustle found that neither its pincers nor claws could move. It could use attribute energy, but aiming was almost impossible.
After multiple attempts at releasing Rock Burst failed to hit Chansey, Crustle could only watch in despair as Chansey smiled, slowly poisoning it into unconsciousness.
In the last second before fainting, the slightly shy smile of its opponent was deeply imprinted in its mind.
Devil!
This pink creature is a devil!
What kind of Pokémon battles like this? It's clearly just torturing me!
The internally fragile Crustle almost cried in its dreams.
And after this, every time it saw a Chansey smile at it in the Pokémon Center, it would shiver thrice, too afraid to make even a sound.
Puzzling the Chansey nurses greatly.
But that was a story for another time.
On the field, seeing Crustle faint from the poison, Chansey exhaled deeply in relief, the tense smile fixed on its face finally disappearing.
Indeed, not having attack moves isn't too great.
It thought somewhat worriedly, then naturally used Healing Bell on Crustle, curing its poison state.
Just as it was about to release Healing Fluctuation again, the machine above retrieved it.
Chansey snapped back to reality, waving its small hand at the machine behind it.
With the trainer valuing it so much, having only poison as an attack method seemed quite unreasonable. It had to try to find a new breakthrough.
It watched as the machine emitted a red light, drawing it into the Pokeball, thinking thus.
In the room.
Baimu slowly relaxed.
"Just one more round, one more round and I can get a Pokémon Egg. Hopefully, it's a cute and interesting one."
He began to ponder the odds of drawing a shiny Ralts...
Fantasizing is just fantasizing, but one must have dreams.
