Hiko was completely dumbfounded.
No matter how she tried to imagine it, she never would have expected things to develop like this.
The combat experience and composure Shiko had shown were absolutely top-tier—top-tier to the extre!
Without exaggeration, it didn't lose to her at all, even though she had once been a Champion-level Trainer!
If anything…
He was even stronger than her.
If she were the one commanding, then in a situation like this, Hiko was certain she could never have done it as simply and efficiently as Shiko did—no hesitation, no wasted motion, not a single unnecessary action.
In truth, Hiko could think of these battle thods as well.
But from the mont she issued a command, to the mont Shiko received it and reacted, there would always be a ti gap.
No matter how short that gap was, it was still enough to affect the entire battle situation right now.
Hiko genuinely couldn't understand it.
Why was Shiko able to co up with such a perfect counterasure in such a short ti?
And during his fighting, he even added that whole string of predictions!
Not only did he easily evade Geodude's attacks, he even counter-killed Geodude on the spot!
This kind of battle experience…
How could it possibly belong to a lazy Pokémon who spent every day eating, sleeping, and sunbathing?
If soone who didn't know the truth watched this battle, they would absolutely think Shiko had grown up imrsed in combat every single day!
Otherwise…
How could he have such terrifying combat instincts and intelligence?
Only then did Hiko recall sothing from back when Shiko agreed to beco her Pokémon—
Why he had insisted on that clause about battle command authority!
This guy's battle talent and IQ…
Were off the charts!
It was ridiculous!
She had even been thinking that soday, after Shiko took a beating, he would obediently listen to her commands.
Now it seed…
She probably wouldn't get that chance in this lifeti!
While Hiko was still marveling, the fighting on Shiko's side still hadn't stopped.
At this point…
Only Skorupi and Mankey were left unhandled!
Mankey and Skorupi had only just recovered from the aftermath of that Dragon Claw.
The next second—
They attacked Shiko without hesitation.
But Shiko had already widened the distance in advance.
Watching Mankey and Skorupi's movents, Shiko didn't hesitate at all.
He opened his mouth.
The raging, surging Fire-type energy inside his body was stirred and condensed once again!
In his mouth, a dazzling, scorching orb of light rapidly ford!
Boom!!
A searing deep-orange beam blasted out, wrapped in pale-blue flas!
It carried horrifying heat and imnse destructive power!
Boom!!
Boom!!
That Flathrower struck Mankey and Skorupi dead-on.
"Gyaaah!!!"
Under Shiko's fully charged Flathrower—now that he had evolved—
Mankey and Skorupi had no chance to react, and no ability to resist!
In an instant, they were engulfed by flas, turning into two burning fireballs!
After the raging flas dispersed, Mankey and Skorupi were already mangled beyond recognition—charred black all over, smoke curling up, life and death unknown!
The fourth! The fifth!
All cleaned up!
Shiko's side of the battlefield was over.
But the atmosphere at the scene began to grow heavy.
The mbers of Team Dark who witnessed this revealed expressions of utter shock and panic.
This wave, together with the earlier one—
Shiko had now taken down fifteen Pokémon in total!
Fifteen!
And it wasn't one-on-one wheel battles!
It was a one-versus-fifteen group assault!
It was absurd!
This strength was truly terrifying!
After all—
Shiko had only just evolved into Charleon.
Which ant his level should be around mid Entry-level.
By that logic, his strength shouldn't be that different from the dozen-plus Pokémon he defeated.
But the combat power he erupted with…
How did it look anything like what an Entry-level Pokémon should have!?
This kind of one-sided instant kill—
That was combat power above Entry-level, at the Professional tier!
The one-eyed man's remaining pupil abruptly shrank.
That ominous premonition he had earlier was now growing stronger and stronger!
This was bad!
Today was really going to be trouble!
He had originally been counting on the Pokémon he sent out…
To easily deal with Shiko.
Now it seed…
That one-sided situation had been completely reversed!
Shiko's gaze turned toward them.
Those ice-cold eyes devoid of any emotion t the one-eyed man's stare.
Just that single glance—
Was enough to make the one-eyed man feel a terror that split his guts and shattered his courage!
Whoosh!!
The next second—
Shiko's figure vanished!
He darted toward this battlefield at high speed!
