Chapter 580 - Going All Out
Both sides have lost pokemons, while Tobias and Ash can't use their pokemon anymore, same could be said for Julian unless he heals Togekiss back to normal, his Luxray is in no shape to battle, that Focus punch really did a number on him, it was an unexpected attack from Ash but he had expected these attacks.
He knew how unorthodox Ash can be so he has to prepare for attacks like that in the future.
Tobias's Darkrai is down so he sent out his next pokemon, Tyranitar, while Julian also sent out his next pokemon reveling his fourth pokemon for this battle, Garchomp.
As both monsters took their spot, the air around them got tense, both of them are Pseudo Legendary pokemon, both of them have a unique black color scale compared to their species and are not even shinnies.
Both of them are powerhouse as well, while Tyranitar is boasting very high defense, Garchomp's attack is beyond comparison.
Both pokemon roared at each other as they sensed a natural rivalry against each other, Pseudo pokemons are such.
When they encounter a pokemon that is as strong as them or a little difference in their power they need to battle it out to see who is superior.
The Sinnoh skies are filled with the battle between Garchomp's and Salamence as they want to overtake the rich hunting ground, the same thing can be seen in Hoenn where the pokemons would be Salamence and Tyranitar.
These pokemons are big, powerful and aggressive by nature, when they encounter each other in the wild there will be a massive battle.
They started to battle, every exchange they did cause the ground beneath them to shatter into pieces creating big craters on the battlefield.
The winner of these exchanges was clearly Garchomp, he has too much power and speed behind his attacks compared to the heavy tank that Tyranitar is, luckily for Tyranitar its Defense is really high and it can take those attacks but not for long, it will soon succumb to Garchomp's relentless attacks.
Every move from Garchomp are intended to take out Tyranitar, if not for Tyranitar countering them directly with its powerful Physical Attacks, it would have been destroyed under the barrage of attacks that Garchomp is doing.
Tobias started to feel the pressure as he realized just how powerful Julian's Garchomp is, being the strongest pokemon in his Sinnoh team, he boasts power that can destroy a whole city if he goes on a rampage, several elite trainers have to come together to stop him from causing any more damage.
While Tobias is facing his own troubles against Julian's Garchomp, Ash and Infernape are also having a hard time against Manaphy.
Manaphy is really shining in this battle, in its previous battle it never got the chance to show the people what it can do but now, this whole battle has been under Manaphy's hand.
Ash's Infernape is not able to keep up with Manaphy away from him, his attacks are doing little damage on it and its water type attacks are very powerful for Infernape to handle.
Manaphy is too small for it to land any hit, with its ability to float it is able to maintain a safe distance from Infernape's attack and then blast water moves in it.
Since Infernape is fast it is able to dodge most of Manaphy's move but things like this won't continue for long, Infernape will soon succumb to the assaults of Manaphy.
Tobias's strategy to divide Julian's attention backfired on his, they alone cannot take Julian's pokemon on their own, his pokemons are faster, more agile and stronger than their pokemon.
Even if they have some hard hitters like Darkrai and Infernape things will not go how they imagine if they don't work together, their plan to divide and concur backfired.
Tobias "Ash let's attack together"
As he said this he saw Julian's Garchomp land a powerful Dual Chop on Tyranitar and sent it crashing into the ground, as Ash heard Tobias he called Infernape to back off and help Tyranitar.
Garchomp got ready to move in for the finish with a Dragon Rush, his body got surrounded by pulsing dragonic energy, it was like blue flames taking over his, the blue flames them transformed into a shape of a Dragon and Garchomp rushed towards Tyranitar, seeing this Tyranitar tried to block the attack.
Ash "Infernape, counter with Flare Blitz"
Infernape rushed forward to intercept Garchomp and used Flare Blitz, this Flare Blitz was even more power than what Julian had seen before.
Garchomp and Infernape clashed with each other as the blue energy and the red flames tangled with each other, it then exploded creating a massive shockwave, the shockwave put a crack on the stadium's defense but it was able to hold it.
People Infernape sent flying out of the smoke after that clash, as the smoke cleared up everyone could see Garchomp still standing on his feet with no scratch on his body, he is just too powerful, Infernape landed on its feet as it did a somersault but as soon as it landed the backlash kicked in and it went to its knee, luckily it gave Tyranitar enough time to recover and get back to Infernape's side and be its shield.
Tobias "Ash, divide and conquer will not work, we have to battle together"
He said and looked at Julian's Garchomp and Manaphy, this battle is a lot harder now because Julian brought up his ace Garchomp who seems very though to handle and Manaphy has also shown how powerful it really is.
Ash "I understand"
Tobias "One move, let's go all out, full power"
Ash "Are you sure?"
Tobias "Let's do it, it's our only chance to take out Julian's Garchomp"
Ash "Ok then, Infernape get ready".
