Evolution! Galarian Rapidash!
Seeing Icy Wind rushing towards him, Bruce calmly said, "Mystical Fire."
"Ponyta~"
Ponyta opened her mouth, and orange flames erupted from it, forming a pillar of fire that suddenly exploded!
Boom!
The wave of heat rolled forward, flames surged, and Mystical Fire penetrated directly into the Ice Wind, melting it completely.
The surrounding temperature instantly rose, and the offensive of Mystical Fire didn't stop; it surged towards Beartic with astonishing momentum.
"Roar!"
Beartic appeared dignified and let out a deep growl, glaring at the growing Mystical Fire while swinging its fists violently.
In the next moment, the ground beneath Beartic trembled with layers of water waves, then a massive wave surged into the sky, rolling forward like a furious tide!
Surf!
A trace of surprise flickered in Bruce's eyes; he didn't expect a wild Beartic to master the move [Surf].
Well, it makes sense.
Beartic loves to ride the waves in the ocean.
The torrential water waves clashed with Mystical Fire, resulting in a tremendous roar and a cloud of smoke rising.
Seeing this scene, Cubchoo, hiding behind a rock, had bright eyes, staring intently at Ponyta, who was just a bit bigger than him.
The battlefield gradually calmed; Beartic fixed its gaze on Ponyta across from it. Suddenly, its eyes sharpened, it took a step forward, and the ground rushed towards Ponyta!
In a brief moment, it closed in on Ponyta, simultaneously swinging its sharp claws that glinted coldly, enveloped in a white light and violently slashing towards Ponyta!
"Beartic!"
"Protect." Bruce spoke with a calm expression.
"Ponyta..."
Ponyta had no doubt he was there; her eyes froze as she took a breath, and immediately the emerald green Protective Barrier lit up around her.
Boom!
The sharp claws struck the Protective Barrier, accompanied by a 'crackling' sound in Ponyta's ears. The Barrier cracked but still held.
Seeing this, Ponyta secretly sighed in relief, and at the same time, Bruce's voice rang out again: "Ponyta—"
"Dazzling Gleam."
Upon hearing this, the unicorn on Ponyta's forehead instantly bloomed like a nuclear transformation, covering Beartic entirely.
"Roar!"
The next moment, Beartic emitted a mournful Growl, and as the white glow dissipated, it was covered in cuts and bruises, clearly suffering considerable damage.
"Cubchoo..."
Cubchoo saw Beartic was severely injured and shouted anxiously, quickly scampering over with its short legs towards Beartic.
"Roar..."
Beartic turned around with a serious expression, shaking its head at Cubchoo.
"Cubchoo..."
Cubchoo looked at Beartic, its eyes shining with tears.
"Roar!"
Beartic seemed slightly moved but appeared to remember something again and shook its head at Cubchoo.
Seeing this, Cubchoo lowered its head, dejectedly hiding behind the large rock.
Bruce observed the scene in front of him, a bit surprised, then looked at Beartic and asked loudly, "Do you want to continue?"
"Roar!"
Beartic glanced down at its abdominal injury, then lifted its head to look at Bruce, waving its sharp claws to indicate it could continue.
Bruce's eyes flickered slightly; he was silent for a moment and finally nodded.
In the next moment,
"Roar!"
Beartic let out a bored roar, using Bulldoze, a wave of water surged around it, and then it dashed straight towards Ponyta at lightning speed!
Aqua Jet!
Boom!
Suddenly, Beartic collided with Ponyta, who felt a bit of pain, swayed, and took half a step back.
"Ponyta..."
Immediately after, Ponyta shook her head, her eyes as pure as Amber's fixed on Beartic in front of her, and Bruce's voice came to her mind: stay mentally strong.
"Ponyta!"
Upon hearing this, Ponyta immediately raised her front hooves, her eyes gleaming with bright blue light, and the emerging psychic energy burst forth, transforming into a blue sphere and imprisoning Beartic within!
"Roar!"
Seeing it was trapped, Beartic roared loudly. It suddenly swung its cold fists with astonishing strength, crashing forcefully against the blue Light Screen.
The sound of breaking resonated sharply, and Beartic unleashed Ice Punch like a rain of blows, quickly shattering the blue sphere.
"Ponyta!"
Ponyta's eyes were stubborn as she shouted loudly, pouring all her psychic energy into it, controlling the blue sphere to contract inward.
"Roar..."
The next moment, the blue sphere penetrated Beartic's mind like an invisible net, striking its nerves like a hammer. Beartic experienced a splitting headache, letting out a very mournful Growl and halting its movements.
Half an hour later,
The mental obsession gradually faded, and beads of cold sweat dripped from Beartic's forehead to the ground.
Beartic gasped heavily, trying to stabilize its body and not fall.
But in the next moment... it involuntarily roared, Growl, its eyes rolled back into darkness, its figure swayed, and it collapsed to the ground.
"Ponyta..."
Seeing that she had successfully defeated Beartic, Ponyta raised her front hooves and let out an excited neigh.
Immediately after, Ponyta ran over to Bruce's side, nuzzling her head against his pant leg, and the next moment...
The brilliant white light of evolution enveloped Ponyta entirely.
Seeing this scene up close, Bruce was a bit startled and hurriedly opened Ponyta's data panel.
Upon seeing that Ponyta's level had changed to level 40, a bright smile spread across his face as he gazed directly at Ponyta in front of him.
Covered in white light, Ponyta's figure gradually grew taller until she reached about the same height as Blaziken, then she stopped growing.
Ponyta had finally evolved.
After evolving into Rapidash, she lowered her head, inspected herself closely, then raised her head again, neighing excitedly at Bruce.
The white light receded, revealing that Rapidash's mane and tail, as well as her limbs, were adorned with soft pink-purple and light blue hues, her body was white, and her light blue eyes were as pure as gems, resembling a unicorn slowly emerging from a fairy tale.
After evolving into Rapidash, she gained an additional [Fairy] attribute, and her stats remained unchanged.
Bruce glanced at Rapidash's data panel and saw 【Psycho Cut】【Mega Horn】【Quick Attack】 listed in the skills column.
