Fierce Battle Rising in the Sky Totem!
"Weaviles?"
The Weaviles looked down at the pit below, occasionally hearing terrifying roars. They seemed anxious, but the only thing they could do was lie on the ice, bewildered.
Suddenly, a violent wind howled from below, and the surrounding layers of ice creaked.
"Weaviles!"
The Weavile leader let out a nervous growl, immediately getting up and taking a few steps back.
Seeing this, the Weaviles and Sneasels nearby quickly stood up, their faces filled with terror as they backed away repeatedly.
In the next moment, a huge gray figure shot up from below. It flapped its wings twice, sending shockwaves across its body and exuding a terrifying power.
It was as if an ancient fierce beast was charging toward them. Each Sneasel's expression changed drastically as their souls trembled.
Soon after, Aerodactyl soared into the vastness. Rising into the sky with a proud demeanor, it let out a loud and rapid cry as it flew.
With every roar, the Sneasels below trembled in fear, their faces filled with horror.
The prestige of an ancient Dragon-type Pokemon in the sky was undeniably revealed!
Just as the Sneasels were terrified, another Pokemon flew out of the hole.
No, it was two Pokemon.
Blaziken stood firmly on the back of Metagross and chased after the Aerodactyl hovering in the air.
In the next moment, the space next to the Weavile leader rippled slightly, and two figures blinked into view.
Bruce and Gardevoir appeared on the ice.
The two headed straight for the ice via Teleport, with Metagross chasing Aerodactyl alongside Blaziken.
In Bruce's opinion, this Aerodactyl was very abnormal and could be hiding many secrets.
Secondly, Aerodactyl had a violent nature. If left unchecked, it would negatively impact the ecological environment of this place and even harm humans.
In terms of emotion and reason, Bruce couldn't just let it go.
"ROAR!"
Seeing Bruce still chasing it, Aerodactyl's eyes grew fierce as it opened its mouth wide, letting out a howl that quickened the heartbeat.
Immediately afterward, Aerodactyl gathered its double wingbeats and charged toward Blaziken, its sharp fangs gleaming coldly.
Crunch!
"Blaziken!"
Blaziken's eyes were calm as he used Metagross as a springboard, leaping with a Splash and closing in on Aerodactyl in an instant.
Both fists glowed with lightning and collided!
Boom!
The Weaviles and Sneasels on the ice all looked up at the fierce clash between Blaziken and Aerodactyl, as the terrifying shockwaves spread in all directions!
Explosion! Explosion! Explosion!
Blaziken's punches were incredibly fast, so much so that it was hard for the naked eye to track the trajectory of his strikes, landing blow after blow to Aerodactyl's face, causing significant damage.
But Aerodactyl didn't pay attention to the slight pain from its main face. It seemed maddened as its fangs bit into Blaziken's arm, leaving visible marks.
As the two Pokemon battled, Metagross unknowingly walked behind Aerodactyl, its eyes frozen. Its fists shone with long, sharp white lights as it swung noisily.
Meteor Mash!
"Roar…"
Aerodactyl's reaction speed was surprisingly fast. It quickly spun around, flapped its wings, and resisted Metagross's attack as best it could.
Boom!
Metagross launched its Meteor Mash, hitting Aerodactyl's left flank directly, leaving a mark from the heavy blow.
The hit was powerful and forceful, causing Aerodactyl's figure to stagger slightly, revealing weaknesses.
Blaziken seized the opportunity decisively and threw a right punch, landing squarely on Aerodactyl's right wing.
"ROAR!"
The next moment, Aerodactyl let out a heart-wrenching roar.
At the same time, Blaziken attacked the ground.
Bruce took the opportunity to check Aerodactyl's data panel again, and its level had changed from 52 to 53.
"The level has really changed…" Bruce's eyes blinked, and he began to have some guesses about the situation with this Aerodactyl.
This was the first time he encountered such a situation, but it didn't affect his speculations.
According to Bruce's experiment, a Pokemon's injuries or age would not affect its level.
It was like some Pokemon could be seriously injured, but their level would not change, though their combat power would drop considerably.
There were also ancient Pokemon whose combat power was almost the same, but their level remained unchanged.
However, the level of this Aerodactyl had changed right under Bruce's nose.
"First of all, it's likely that this Aerodactyl was in a deep sleep before, and shortly after waking up, its bodily functions hadn't fully recovered, leading to a system judgment error," Bruce thought to himself.
"Secondly, this Aerodactyl may have temporarily broken through," though Bruce believed this possibility was smaller.
Based on the current situation, Bruce could only make these two guesses for now.
"Whatever happens, let's deal with this Aerodactyl first." Bruce's eyes froze as he thought to himself.
Air,
Aerodactyl let out a groan, its left and right wings severely injured simultaneously. Its body swayed and fell directly to the ground.
But after a while, it suddenly flapped its wings, scraped violently, and soared back up high.
"ROAR!"
Aerodactyl flew high into the air, staring coldly at Metagross and Blaziken, exuding a terrifying aura from its entire body.
Level 53 was no longer considered a beginner Gym level. Facing Ace-level Pokemon, under normal circumstances, it held a crushing advantage.
"Damn…"
Blaziken landed on the ice, gazing at Aerodactyl in the sky, panting slightly.
"We need to lure Aerodactyl down," Bruce looked up and stared intently, silently making a decision.
As long as Aerodactyl is defeated, both he and Blaziken would be in their prime.
Only Metagross could hurt it if it remained in the air.
Suddenly, Aerodactyl tilted its head to the sky and screamed loudly, then opened its bloodied mouth, from which yellow-orange light spots emerged, forming an orange beam of light that exuded terrifying energy.
Hyper Beam!
[Hyper Beam, the ultimate move in the regular department, though powerful, wasn't popular in the games due to its side effects.
But in the Pokemon world, it was a standard ability for powerful Pokemon, especially favored by Bangira.
Boom!
The Hyper Beam suddenly exploded toward Bruce's position. The momentum was enormous, and the aura was tyrannical, scaring everyone.
Bruce's eyes were calm, slightly blue. He waved his hand, and a blue Confusion barrier suddenly illuminated around him.
Boom!
The Hyper Beam slammed into the Confusion barrier, causing a deafening explosion. The barrier cracked in several places but remained intact.
A trace of doubt appeared between Aerodactyl's brows as it suddenly felt that the human in front of it seemed to be the most troublesome.
"Meteor Mash."
As the Hyper Beam dissipated, Bruce's voice reached Metagross's mind.
Metagross!
Under Bruce's watchful eye, along with a group of Pokemon, Metagross quickly flew behind Aerodactyl, seizing the brief moment when it couldn't move. It swung its long fist, and an intense white light flared for a moment.
Boom!
This Meteor Mash hit Aerodactyl's back with great force. Aerodactyl's pupils suddenly dilated, and searing pain came from its back.
Next, one blow after another struck its back, with the pain never stopping.
Finally, Metagross withdrew its fists and retreated.
"..."
Aerodactyl let out an involuntary roar. It struggled and flapped its wings but felt its body growing heavier, eventually losing control and falling directly onto the ice.
With a loud crash, Aerodactyl hit the ice heavily, breaking the icy debris.
"Roar…"
After an unknown amount of time, Aerodactyl shook its head, causing its consciousness to grow even more groggy.
It was only then that it realized it was covered in cuts and bruises. Every time it moved, it aggravated the injured parts, causing intense pain.
Immediately, Aerodactyl endured the pain, using its wings for support, and slowly lifted its head. Bruce, Gardevoir, and Metagross with blue eyes appeared in its view. Blaziken's fists were covered in flames, ready to attack.
A little farther back, Sneasel and Weavile let out warning growls.
Aerodactyl quickly lowered its head.
Seeing Aerodactyl's reaction, Bruce said coldly, "You should be able to understand me."
Aerodactyl heard this, cautiously raised its head, and stared at Bruce.
The dominant momentum from the previous Power Trip had disappeared.
In reality, it was easy to deal with this kind of Pokemon. No matter how arrogant it was before, no matter how furious its rage was, as long as you conquer it, it would be as docile as a little white rabbit.
"I just want to ask you one question, where did that Sneasel go?" Bruce pointed to a Sneasel behind him and asked aloud.
Upon hearing Bruce's question, Aerodactyl flapped its wings and pointed beneath the ice with its wing claws.
"Is it still in the pit?" Seeing this, Bruce murmured softly.
Then, he looked back at Aerodactyl with suspicion and said, "You didn't eat it, right?"
The Weaviles and Sneasels behind stared at Aerodactyl.
Aerodactyl hurriedly shook its head.
Seeing that Aerodactyl didn't seem to be lying, Bruce thought for a moment and asked, "Are you on that dark path?"
It took Aerodactyl a while to understand what Bruce meant, and it eventually nodded.
"Wait here, I'll go take a look," said Bruce.
He then instructed Blaziken and Metagross to guard Aerodactyl here, preventing it from suddenly exploding.
Now that Aerodactyl had been severely beaten, its condition had seriously deteriorated, and the Weavile group was watching, not daring to act rashly.
Bruce and Gardevoir controlled Teleport, so safety was guaranteed, and Solaceon could enter and faint.
Now that there was no danger beneath the pit, Bruce and Gardevoir teleported directly to the bottom of the well.
