After evolving into Super Garchomp, Garchomp's body had two rows of exposed bone spikes on its back. Its arms also became giant scythe-like shapes, and even its tail looked stronger than before.
Super Garchomp was simply a weapon all over its body. It swung its scythe-like arms, once again sending Empoleon flying.
After several consecutive moves, Empoleon could no longer withstand it.
It had an advantage in type, but its actual strength was significantly inferior to Super Garchomp, so it simply couldn't withstand Super Garchomp's fierce attacks.
"Use Absolute Zero."
Even in an unfavorable situation, Empoleon stubbornly resisted.
"Use Protect."
This move could be protected against. Super Garchomp directly used Protect to block Empoleon's Absolute Zero.
Absolute Zero was a deadly near-fatal blow. When used, it consumed a lot of stamina. Coupled with the injuries sustained from Super Garchomp's previous attacks, Empoleon was struggling.
"Use Absolute Zero again."
Gu Shuangyue didn't hesitate. In the instant Super Garchomp blocked Absolute Zero, Empoleon used Absolute Zero again.
This time, there was no Protect to block it. Fortunately, Super Garchomp dodged in time. Although it dodged quickly, because the range covered by Absolute Zero was quite large, Super Garchomp was still affected.
It was affected, not directly hit to the point of near-death, but Super Garchomp's condition was also not good.
After Empoleon used Absolute Zero, it collapsed to the ground due to exhaustion, clearly considered to have lost its ability to battle.
"At least one of her Pokémon has been defeated."
Ling Wanqiu's face showed a hint of joy. Perhaps there was really a chance to defeat Gu Shuangyue. After all, those Pokémon of Gu Shuangyue's were unable to super evolve.
"That's wonderful, trainer Ling Wanqiu's Super Garchomp successfully defeated trainer Gu Shuangyue's Empoleon. However, trainer Gu Shuangyue's Empoleon also responded very well."
"Don't blink, everyone. This battle is too exciting. Don't miss a single detail."
The commentator shouted loudly.
"She won't really be able to win, will she?" Xue Luo looked at Ling Wanqiu.
"Then do you want to see Ling Wanqiu lose or Ling Wanqiu win?" Yuya asked.
"Of course I want to see her win."
Xue Luo said without hesitation.
Even if she and Ling Wanqiu had a rival relationship, their relationship was better than her relationship with Gu Shuangyue. She naturally hoped Ling Wanqiu would win.
It's just that Ling Wanqiu's chances of winning weren't great. There was nothing she could do. She was being countered, and she herself was also very restrained by Gu Shuangyue.
The two of them, when facing Gu Shuangyue, would not have an advantage in type.
"Although I want to see Ling Wanqiu win, it's very difficult for her to win."
Carefully observing the situation, Xue Luo found that the situation was not good for Ling Wanqiu. Although she had defeated Empoleon, Gu Shuangyue's strongest was not Empoleon.
And Ling Wanqiu's Super Garchomp, having been affected by Absolute Zero, was not in good condition.
On the battleground, Gu Shuangyue had already sent out her next Pokémon. It was not Gu Shuangyue's ace Dragonite, but Mismagius.
As soon as it appeared, Mismagius immediately and brazenly used Perish Song and Blizzard.
Pokémon that heard Perish Song would fall into a near-death state after a period of time, unless they were recalled to their Poké Ball or defeated the opponent.
And Blizzard completely restricted Super Garchomp's attacks. The Blizzard falling from the sky had a great impact on Super Garchomp.
Blizzard almost froze Super Garchomp.
"Must defeat Mismagius as soon as possible."
Ling Wanqiu's face changed. If Mismagius used Perish Song and she didn't quickly defeat Mismagius, then Super Garchomp would definitely faint.
"Sing."
"Not good."
Hearing Gu Shuangyue utter "Sing" from her mouth, Ling Wanqiu knew something was wrong. She worriedly looked at Super Garchomp, hoping Super Garchomp could hold on and not fall asleep.
Mismagius sang a beautiful song. Super Garchomp was affected and felt a bit drowsy, wanting to sleep.
Super Garchomp's willpower was strong, and it ultimately resisted, but because it was affected, it was delayed and then frozen by the Blizzard.
Ling Wanqiu now understood.
Everything Gu Shuangyue did was to stall for time. As long as she stalled, her Mismagius would win.
After all, there was still the effect of Perish Song.
"Crack!"
The ice chunks quickly broke free, and Super Garchomp once again charged towards Mismagius, but was quickly restricted by a force.
This force was Mismagius's psychic power. Using psychic power to restrict Super Garchomp, Mismagius once again delayed Super Garchomp.
Every minute, every second was crucial at this moment.
Finally, Mismagius successfully stalled for time. Amidst Super Garchomp's unwillingness, the effect of Perish Song triggered, and Super Garchomp fell to the ground, losing its ability to battle.
"Lost."
Ling Wanqiu recalled Garchomp.
Her strongest Pokémon lost. The rest of the battle was difficult for Ling Wanqiu.
"Go, Dragonite."
After recalling Garchomp, Ling Wanqiu sent out Dragonite. Dragonite also had Heavenly King-level strength and could fight Mismagius, and the chances of winning were high.
However, Gu Shuangyue's Dragonite was something Ling Wanqiu didn't know how to deal with. Only Dragonite was something she couldn't handle; she could handle the rest.
"Continue using Blizzard."
The Blizzard that had just stopped blew up again. Heavy snow fell, quickly covering the battlefield with a thick layer of snow.
As soon as it came out, Mismagius gave Dragonite a big gift.
Blizzard was also a powerful Ice-type move, which was four times super effective against Dragonite. It was really tough.
However, Blizzard was continuous damage. Dragonite could still endure it for a short period of time.
"Dragonite, use Mega Punch."
Ling Wanqiu didn't hesitate to let Dragonite use a powerful move. Delay was not an option. The longer the delay, the more advantageous it was for Gu Shuangyue's Mismagius. The most correct choice was to quickly defeat the opponent's Mismagius.
"Mismagius, use Ice Beam."
Faced with Dragonite's powerful move, Gu Shuangyue's choice was also decisive. Dodging was impossible. Protect had already been used earlier when entangling with Super Garchomp.
Unable to block and unable to dodge, then she could only try to inflict as much damage as possible on Dragonite.
"Crack!"
Mismagius was sent flying, crashing onto the barrier. It looked as if it was about to faint.
Although Super Garchomp was delayed to death before, Super Garchomp also inflicted some injuries on Mismagius. Mismagius's current condition was not good.
"Dragonite, continue attacking. Use Dragon Rush."
Ling Wanqiu's eyes showed a fierce glint. She had battled with Qingchen so many times before, so her battle style was also influenced by Qingchen. She would take advantage of every opportunity.
"Still can't dodge?"
Gu Shuangyue knew it couldn't be dodged and continued to command Mismagius to attack. Ice Beam once again shot towards Dragonite.
Still the same as before, Dragonite endured the Ice Beam attack and once again charged forward, crashing into Mismagius. This time, it directly sent Mismagius flying.
"Mismagius loses its ability to battle."
The referee announced.
"The battle is very intense, but currently, trainer Gu Shuangyue has already lost two Pokémon. Now trainer Ling Wanqiu has the upper hand."
The commentator shouted loudly.
Ling Wanqiu heard the commentator's words, but Ling Wanqiu was not that optimistic.
She clearly knew Gu Shuangyue's Pokémon. Precisely because she understood Gu Shuangyue too well, Ling Wanqiu knew that the situation was even more unfavorable for her now.
"Next, Gu Shuangyue will send out Dragonite, right? As long as Dragonite can defeat Dragonite, I'll have a chance to win."
Ling Wanqiu felt a slight tension in her heart.
To make her Dragonite defeat Gu Shuangyue's Dragonite, the difficulty was directly pulled to the highest. It was too difficult. Even if it was to let Super Garchomp fight Dragonite, Ling Wanqiu was not confident of winning.
Although Dragonite was strong, its actual strength was still inferior to Garchomp, so her chances of winning were somewhat slim.
Sure enough, as Ling Wanqiu had guessed, Gu Shuangyue sent out Dragonite. Although Gu Shuangyue also had a King-level Milotic, using Dragonite was even safer, as she was absolutely confident she could defeat Ling Wanqiu's Dragonite.
