Wes clenched his teeth. Since he has to face a legendary fire type, now he needed to rethink his tactics! Espeon would not be able to keep going, and he didn't know how much Hitmontop could take. That, and Feraligator wasn't at full strength as well.
He called his Physic Pokémon back and sent the Fighting-type out.
Dakim laughed as he saw it. "Are you joking me! This little Pokémon will be crushed! Fire Blast!"
The mighty Pokémon roared and shot the fire attack. Feraligator moved out of the way, and Hitmontop was already spinning at Entei and attacked with Rolling Kick.
The Fire Pokémon roared again and slaped his paw out at Hitmontop. The Pokémon didn't see it coming, and flew across the platform. It barely avoided falling off, and Wes shouted to get away fast as possible. As the Fighting Type looked for the reason, its eyes widened in terror as another Fire Blast was on the way. Hitmontop braced to get hit, but suddenly, it noticed a Shadow and looked.
Ferilgator was in front of Hitmontop and took the full hit for the Fighting type. As Entei stormed in to attack with Bite, Water Type prepared to counter with Water Tail.
Both attacks hit and Ferilgator fell to its knees because of the damage done to it during the battle.
Wes became unsure what to do. Entei was strong, and his trump card against it was getting tired. Hitmontop wasn't really trained yet, so it hardly had a chance.
But Espeon and Umbreon wouldn't stand very long if he sent them out.
So he decided to put everything into one move, hoping it would work…
"Ferilgator! Grab Entei and hold it the best as you can!"
The water crocodile listened, and stomped at Entei.
But Dakim already ordered the Shadowed Legendary to attack with Shadow Rush.
Entei hit Ferilgator in the chest, and the water Pokémon let out a pained noise. But it still did what Wes ordered, and grabbed Entei, holding it as well as it's remaining strength allowed!
But Entei was very strong, and began to push Ferilgator back. If nothing changed soon, Ferilgator might be tossed from the platform, falling to it's death.
Wes knew about that risk, but he didn't have another plan. Now his hopes were completely on Hitmontop.
"HItmontop! Use Agility with Rapid Spin! Then attack with Rolling Kick!" Wes exclaimed, and the Fighting-type Pokémon jumped on its head, and began to spin swiftly. After a moment, it began to speed up against Entei.
During the rush to Entei, Hitmontop suddenly went into the air somehow, and adjusted his position so that the Rolling Kick would be enforced by the spin of the Pokémon and slightly by earth's Gravity…
But the risk of hitting Feraligator instead was high!
Hitmontop fell closer, and the attack connected with something... Dust that was still on the Platform got affected by the impact and flew up, blocking the sight of all present.
Wes and Dakim waited for the view to clear.
A Silhouette became visible... The Silhouette of something on all fours and something lying on the ground…
