Just then, Pryce had already sent out his second Pokémon.
As the blue light faded, Natsui looked forward and saw that it was a Lapras.
It was said that Lapras is a very intelligent Pokémon, but because of its gentle nature and dislike for battling, it was often caught by humans in large numbers, to the point that the species beca increasingly rare. They could only occasionally be found in the shallow waters of remote islands.
Natsui looked at it for a few monts, stroking his chin.
In fact, he hadn't had much contact with Lapras, only seeing Ash use one as a mode of transport in the Orange Islands.
And he only knew that Lapras was also a Water/Ice-type Pokémon, no different from the Dewgong just now, and was still at a disadvantage against Jolteon.
Mhm, not bad. At least I can still maintain a certain advantage.
Seeing that both sides were ready, Pryce, acting as the referee, waved his hand lightly.
As the match began, this ti, before Jolteon could make a move, Lapras had already attacked first.
It opened its mouth and directly used Ice Beam. The move was very powerful, and Natsui had no intention of wasting stamina to et it head-on, simply having Jolteon dodge it for the ti being.
Hearing his command, Jolteon leaped to the side, dodging the powerful attack.
But just as it landed, another Confuse Ray flew towards it.
Jolteon ducked, and the light of the Confuse Ray just barely grazed its tail. However, when it looked up again, it saw that Lapras had already ford another Water Gun.
The Water Gun shot out from Lapras's mouth, crossed half the field, and arrived in an instant.
This ti, Jolteon hadn't had ti to catch its breath, and with nowhere to dodge, it could only be hit, taking the full force of the attack.
Oho?
Lapras's little combo is quite skilled.
And after this 'three-hit combo,' Natsui had already figured it out.
If the Dewgong from before had defended while looking for a chance to counterattack, then this Lapras had completely abandoned defense, seizing the initiative and choosing to go on an all-out offensive against Jolteon.
Although Pryce had used Pokémon of the sa type in both battles, their styles were completely different. It seed that the loss in the first round had made him change his strategy…
But this is as far as it goes.
"Jolteon, it's our turn to counterattack!"
Jolteon shook its fur, flicking off the water, then stared at Lapras with sharp eyes and charged towards it.
Faced with the nacing Jolteon, Lapras wanted to use the sa combo as before, but this ti Jolteon was prepared. It used Agility to dodge the moves while also closing the distance between them.
"Now! Have a taste of our power! Quick Attack!"
Jolteon suddenly accelerated again, ramming its head into Lapras.
This ti, it hit Lapras right on the head, nearly knocking it over.
And seeing Jolteon get close, Pryce knew that what was coming next would be a thunder-like electric shock, and he shouted, "Use Sheer Cold!"
Natsui's brow furrowed.
Trying for a one-hit knockout!?
Don't even think about it!
"Jolteon! Use Thunder Wave!"
On the other side, Lapras was calling upon the energy in its body, trying to use Sheer Cold, the ultimate one-hit-kill move among Ice-type attacks.
Its body was glowing, and energy was gathering in its mouth at a visible rate. Just as Sheer Cold was about to be ready, at the critical mont, Jolteon suddenly released a faint electric current that struck its body.
It was Thunder Wave.
"Not good!"
Looking at the faint, and seemingly harmless, electric current, Pryce's heart sank.
He knew that although the move Thunder Wave didn't cause any damage, it would inflict paralysis on the target, thereby interrupting the release of Sheer Cold.
Lapras's body suddenly trembled, and the next second, a numbing sensation spread throughout its body. The Sheer Cold that was just about to be ready also dissipated.
It failed at the last mont.
Seeing this, Pryce knew that the situation was now irreversible.
Sure enough, as he had expected, Jolteon's attack was not over. And just like it had dealt with Dewgong, it first used Thunder Fang, then followed up with Double Kick, and finally, a Discharge. The sa set of consecutive moves took down Lapras.
Pryce sighed softly.
It had to be said, this young man was indeed very skilled. No wonder he had won the Indigo Conference and had earned Blaine's praise.
"I've lost the second match as well."
And seeing Lapras defeated, Natsui also let out a secret sigh of relief.
Phew, that was close.
If Lapras had managed to use Sheer Cold just now, it would have definitely turned the tables.
But thankfully, he had managed to win the match without any major scares in the end.
Seeing Pryce recall Lapras and about to take out his third Pokémon, Natsui also called back Jolteon.
Although he had not suffered serious injuries in the two battles, his stamina had been greatly depleted. If he continued fighting, he would likely be defeated. It was better to let him rest on the sidelines.
Besides, Pokémon battles were not just about strength, but also about tact.
Although Pryce looked calm at the mont, he was, after all, very old. If he were to be swept 3-0, it would surely be a blow to his pride. What if he couldn't take it and had a fit of anger? He would also have to bear a great responsibility.
And in any case, he was an acquaintance of Blaine's. He had to show him so respect.
On the other side, seeing Natsui smiling foolishly at him, Pryce felt a bit puzzled.
But it was fortunate he didn't know what Natsui was thinking, otherwise, he really would have been angered to the point of illness.
Although he was old, his experience was vast. It was just a gym battle. How could he be affected by such a small matter?
Fortunately, he didn't overthink it but sent out his last Pokémon.
"Co on out, Abomasnow!"
As the blue light faded, with a boom, a massive Pokémon appeared on the field.
Abomasnow?
Looking at this bipedal Pokémon, covered in white fur, with green hands and feet, like a giant yeti, Natsui couldn't help but take a few extra looks.
This was the first ti he had seen this Pokémon in person, and he felt it was quite novel. Without caring that Pryce was watching him, he directly took out his Pokédex and pointed it at it.
Pokédex: Beep. Abomasnow, the Frost Tree Pokémon. A Grass/Ice type. Abomasnow, also known as the Abominable Snow Monster, does not like contact with the outside world and lives quietly on snow-capped mountains. It usually only plays with the snow and is a powerhouse that can easily shatter even boulders. By shaking its huge body, it can cause a blizzard, turning the surroundings completely white. It is said that it will appear from sowhere when the snowflakes are in full bloom, and will hide its figure again when the snowflakes wither.
