As soon as the battle started, May couldn't wait to give orders to Beautifly.
"Beautifly, use Tackle!"
Beautifly flew with the wind. After gliding in the air, it crashed toward Taillow. Behind it, the sparkling scales left by flapping its wings lood under the sunlight, forming a long and unique trail.
This is a unique characteristic of butterfly Pokémon. Almost every kind of butterfly Pokémon will leave so such powder more or less during intense flight. It is sparkling and very beautiful!
"Taillow, dodge!"
It wasn't that easy to hit Taillow, who was also flying in the air, with such a simple attack. Ash just opened his mouth, and Taillow easily dodged this Tackle with agile movent.
This wasn't over yet. After Taillow dodged, Ash also gave a Tackle command, counterattacking with the sa move!
However, just like Taillow's dodge just now, Tackle naturally couldn't hit Beautifly easily.
At the mont Taillow was about to hit Beautifly, Beautifly leaned slightly to the side, barely dodging this attack. This made May breathe a huge sigh of relief.
After all, she had only owned Pokémon for a short ti, and her travel ti was short. When her Pokémon was attacked, let alone comparing with Natsui, she couldn't even be as calm as Ash. Her mood fluctuated heavily with the state of her Pokémon.
At the mont of ntal tension, May also showed her talent as a gym leader's daughter at the right ti and ordered keenly.
"Beautifly, use String Shot quickly!"
Beautifly's long needle-shaped mouth exerted force suddenly. Imdiately, a long silk thread was spat out. This silk thread was about the thickness of a little finger, as if controlled by soone. In just an instant, it entangled Taillow's wings together!
This made the eyes of the few people watching brighten, especially Max, who couldn't help blurting out, "Sister, the timing this ti was really good!"
Taillow's wings were bound, unable to fly. Because of its small physique, it couldn't break free with brute force. Fortunately, it was suspended by the silk thread, so it didn't fall to the ground.
If eting an ordinary trainer, relying on this unexpected move would definitely cause trouble for the opponent. But unfortunately, May was facing Ash, an opponent with creative thinking.
Ash shouted loudly, "Taillow, find the gap in the silk thread, break free quickly!"
Hearing Ash's order, Taillow rushed left and right within the silk thread, not giving the thread a chance to wrap it tightly, preventing Beautifly from truly catching it!
Seeing the situation stalemate, the novice trainer May panicked imdiately.
She wanted to change this tug-of-war, but no matter how anxious she was, due to lack of experience, she didn't know what to do for a mont!
Fortunately, she grew up in a gym since childhood and had seen so of her father's battles under subtle influence. While thinking, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and shouted.
"Use Gust quickly!"
Beautifly flapped its wings imdiately. Instantly, a strong wind mixed with countless scales blew toward Taillow.
This strong wind blew directly through the spider silk connecting the two and also blew Taillow to the ground, smashing it hard onto the earth!
"Good job!"
Natsui and Misty cheered at the sa ti from the side. Looking at their vigor and excitent, they were obviously on May's side.
Ash didn't have extra energy to care about whether the two were too biased. At this mont, all his attention was on his Taillow. Seeing Taillow lying there motionless, he shouted hurriedly.
"Taillow, pull yourself together!!"
It was unknown whether Ash's voice reached Taillow's ears, or the silk thread wrapped around the outside acted as a cushion, but Taillow, who originally had its eyes closed tight, opened its eyes at this ti.
"Very good!" Ash's face showed joy. "Break those threads quickly!!"
May, who was originally full of joy thinking she would defeat Taillow directly just now, panicked again seeing it struggle to get up.
"Use Silver Wind!"
Hearing May give such an order, Natsui raised his eyebrows, knowing this was not a good decision.
After all, when they just found May, they heard Misty ntion that Beautifly had used the move Silver Wind many tis before, but all ended in failure.
Gambling on that extrely low success rate with an unsuccessful move would undoubtedly give the opponent an opportunity!
Sure enough, just as Natsui expected, this Silver Wind failed again as expected.
Beautifly flapped its wings continuously, but the wind it condensed soon dissipated in mid-air!
It was at this ti that Taillow seized the opportunity, broke free from the silk thread, then flew back into the sky again, and defeated Beautifly with a Wing Attack!
Seeing Beautifly fall to the ground and fall completely unconscious, Natsui cried out what a pity inwardly.
Just a little bit more, and May could have obtained the extrely common achievent of "defeating Ash as a novice trainer"!
Natsui and Misty got up and walked to the group. Just as they were about to say sothing, they suddenly heard a voice from behind them.
"Not bad performance. With such strength, there is no problem participating in the Pokémon Contest!"
This was a man's voice, and it sounded not far from them. The group turned around and saw a man about thirty years old, wearing a white ribbon on his head and traditional clothes, walking out from behind clapping his hands.
"Not at all..." Hearing the praise, May smiled embarrassedly. "I'm still far from it, you are too pol..."
However, before she finished speaking, she saw this man stride past her and stand in front of Ash!
May: ?
Under her gaze, she saw this man pat Ash on the shoulder first, then smile.
"Your Taillow perford really well. You are also here to participate in this Pokémon Contest, right?"
Huh?
May was dumbfounded on the spot. So this man wasn't praising her just now, but praising Ash!?
Even Ash was stunned, scratching his head sowhat embarrassedly.
"That... you misunderstood. It's not , but this girl in front of who wants to participate in the competition..."
Hearing this, the man realized he had made a mistake and turned to look at May.
May nodded awkwardly. "Y... Yes, actually I am the one participating in the competition."
"So that's how it is. Sorry, I made a mistake." The man laughed loudly, without any embarrassnt on his face, and just smiled. "Your Beautifly perford very well too. It's just that I can tell that you and your Pokémon should have never participated in such a competition before, right? I can tell you are both very nervous!"
