"Crystal Onix, it's our turn to counterattack! Use Rock Throw!"
Crystal Onix roared, and a huge rock ford in mid-air, hurtling towards Scyther.
At the critical mont, Scyther relied on its high speed to nimbly dodge the attack. At the sa ti, its two blades flashed with an even sharper glint of cold light as they once again struck Crystal Onix's abdon!
Unfortunately, just like before, this attack failed to break through Crystal Onix's defense, only causing minor damage.
The surrounding Scyther swarm grew restless. It wasn't just the scarred leader; even the other Scyther hadn't expected this opponent to be so tough.
Although their new leader seed to have the upper hand, they could all see that if it couldn't break through the opponent's defense, any number of attacks would be futile.
Seeing Scyther close in again, Natsui seized the opportunity and commanded, "Don't let it get away! Use Bind!"
Hearing the command, Crystal Onix's massive tail whipped towards Scyther, attempting to trap it with brute force.
"Scyther!"
Seeing this, Scyther decisively used Double Team. In an instant, four illusory images of Scyther appeared simultaneously in front of Crystal Onix.
At this, Crystal Onix's swinging tail abruptly stopped in mid-air. It looked left and right, completely unable to tell which was the real Scyther, and could only stand there in a daze.
Natsui couldn't see through it either for the ti being, but against a small number of clones, there was a simple and direct solution.
"Crystal Onix, don't be fooled by these clones! Take them all out! Use Rock Tomb!"
Crystal Onix clearly agreed with this plan. It roared again, and the next second, a dozen huge rocks fell from the sky, crashing onto the clones. While shattering them all, the rocks also ford a stone-like maze, sealing off all escape routes.
BOOM!
Scyther, with nowhere to run, was also caught in the Rock Tomb and thrown to the ground.
Rock is super-effective against Flying, and super-effective against Bug. The resulting four-tis damage was devastating.
Scyther had attacked many tis with little effect on Crystal Onix's condition, while just one effective attack from Crystal Onix had left Scyther severely injured. This showed just how important type matchups were and proved the wisdom of Natsui's battle strategy.
Taking the hit, Scyther rolled a few tis, its body covered in dirt, looking extrely battered.
Natsui didn't press his advantage, wanting to see what else this Scyther could muster in such a state.
After a mont, Scyther shook its head and struggled up from the ground. It hopped onto a rock, panting, and stared intently at Crystal Onix, raising its arms in a strange posture.
Swords Dance…
Natsui recognized the move instantly. It seed Scyther knew its attacks weren't effective and was using Swords Dance to increase its damage.
As its limbs moved in what looked like a solemn dance, a faint golden light enveloped Scyther.
After using Swords Dance, Scyther's confidence surged, and it charged towards Crystal Onix again.
However, this ti, because the field was littered with many rocks, Scyther had to constantly leap from one to another, which greatly slowed its advance.
Natsui's eyes followed Scyther's movents as he continued to calmly command, "Crystal Onix, use Stone Edge!"
Crystal Onix slamd its tail on the ground. After a slight tremor, a row of sharp stone pillars suddenly erupted from the earth, shooting straight towards Scyther.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The sharp rocks burst from the ground with imnse power.
Scyther charged towards the stone pillars. At the mont of contact, it suddenly accelerated, using Quick Attack to dodge the Stone Edge while simultaneously bringing itself right in front of Crystal Onix.
The two Pokémon were now face to face. In the instant that Scyther's figure crossed with Crystal Onix's, an even more ferocious slash landed.
Crystal Onix grunted, its body swaying slightly.
It seed that with the boost from Swords Dance, Scyther's attack had finally worked.
But even so, in reality, it hadn't caused much damage to Crystal Onix.
Before Scyther could even catch its breath, Natsui's steady voice reached its ears.
"Crystal Onix, Bind it!"
Scyther wanted to dodge, but now, not only was the surrounding area filled with rocks of all sizes, restricting its movent, but it was also running low on stamina. Having just used Quick Attack, it couldn't muster its previous speed.
Therefore, before it could make a move, it was inevitably wrapped tightly by Crystal Onix's tail.
"Now you have nowhere to run, right?" Natsui said. "Crystal Onix, finish it in one go!"
Crystal Onix squeezed tightly. Scyther struggled a few tis, but Crystal Onix's strength was imnse, making it impossible to break free. As the tail tightened, its eyes rolled back, and it fell into a semi-conscious state.
Seeing this, Crystal Onix lifted it high and slamd it hard onto a rock.
CRASH!
After that blow, Scyther lay on the ground for a long ti, motionless.
Just as Natsui thought it was over and was about to take out a Poké Ball, he saw Scyther struggle back to its feet!
Oh?
Natsui raised his eyebrows. But what surprised him was that even though Scyther had lost consciousness, its indomitable spirit still made its body face Crystal Onix, maintaining a battle stance.
It had to be said, this Scyther was an admirable warrior.
However, things having co to this point, Natsui wasn't going to hold back.
He threw a Poké Ball at Scyther. A red light flashed, and the ball shook violently. But after a few wobbles, Scyther broke out again.
The capture failed…
Looking at Scyther, it was still standing in the sa posture.
"Crystal Onix, give it one last hit!"
Hearing Natsui's command, Crystal Onix whipped its tail, using Iron Tail to strike Scyther.
SMACK!
Scyther fell backward, and this ti, it could not get up again.
Picking up the Poké Ball he had just thrown and looking at the scarred Scyther for a long ti, Natsui gently placed the ball on its forehead.
You strong warrior, beco my partner!
The red light flashed again, and this ti, the ball only shook once before the capture was successful.
The surrounding Scyther swarm erupted in an indignant uproar, seemingly wanting to rush forward and rescue their leader.
Sensing their intent, Crystal Onix imdiately moved to block Natsui's front, letting out a roar that shook the heavens.
ROAR!
Beside it, Natsui also narrowed his eyes, turning to stare back at the swarm.
Intimidated by the presence of the human and his Pokémon, the Scyther instinctively took a step back in unison, their hearts trembling, no longer daring to make a move.
Withdrawing his gaze, Natsui picked up the Poké Ball, shook his head, and walked with Crystal Onix towards Sabrina.
Seeing Sabrina watching him with a gentle gaze, Natsui smiled. "Thanks to you, I managed to catch a pretty good Pokémon this ti. Thank you so much. Alright, now that that's over, it's ti for us to leave this place!
