In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

"Phidden Eagle!"

Qinglu frowned deeply. He had been careless. Sure enough, it wasn't that easy to find a weakness just by relying on his speed advantage.

In retrospect, it was clearly Bakura's doing; he was hit by a wing attack, which gave him the opportunity.

The scorching flames struck Pidgeot's body, causing it to howl in pain as its body was propelled by the pillar of fire, plummeting rapidly until it crashed onto the battlefield.

boom!

The jet of flame exploded violently, and the temperature in the air rose rapidly.

As the flames subsided, Pidgeot was clearly unable to fight!

"Pidgeotto is unable to battle, Moltres wins."

The referee observed the Pidgeot for a moment, then raised the small flag and announced.

"Green, although the Eagle has performed very well, it's not enough to defeat me if it's only at this level,"

Bakura chuckled softly, then spoke slowly to Ao-ryu.

"Our battle has only just begun."

Green retrieved Pidgeot and responded defiantly.

However, Green still looked up at the Moltres in the sky, frowning as it hesitated over which Pokémon to choose next.

Although he spoke with a defiant tone, he still found Moltres rather troublesome.

Not only does it possess aerial superiority, but its fire-type special attacks are also incredibly powerful.

Although it can be seen from the battle with Pidgeot that Moltres is not as agile as Pidgeot, it is only relative to Pidgeot!

Pidgeot is the fastest Pokémon among the main handheld Pokémon in Blue Green.

"Thunder Sprite!"

After a moment's hesitation, Green threw out the second Poké Ball.

A golden canine-shaped elf appeared in front of Qinglv, with white spiked fur around its neck and yellow spikes on its body.

It is one of Eevee's evolved forms, the Electric-type Jolteon!

"Attribute advantage."

Bakura glanced at the Thunder Spirit, whose aura was calm but whose eyes were very sharp, and raised an eyebrow.

"It looks quite strong."

"Of course it's very strong, it's one of my favorite Pokémon."

Upon hearing this, Qinglu replied without hesitation, her eyes filled with pride as she looked at the Thunder Spirit.

This Jolteon was evolved from an Eevee that his father gave him on the day he set off to collect his Pokémon!

She was one of his most cherished partners!

"I see. Then let me see what it's capable of."

Bakura chuckled lightly. Strength isn't something you can just say; you have to see how well you perform in actual combat.

"Molotov, say hello to our new rival."

"Flame Jet!"

Moltres flapped its wings and cried out, its open mouth filled with crimson flames. As Moltres turned its head, a fierce pillar of fire slammed towards Jolteon.

"100,000 volts!"

Qinglv shouted at the Thunder Spirit without hesitation.

When it comes to special attacks, Bluegreen is confident in its ability to defeat Jolteon!

The spikes on the Thunder Sprite stood up, golden arcs of electricity flashed continuously, and a 100,000-volt bolt of lightning hurtled towards the pillar of fire.

Lightning and flames clashed violently in mid-air!

boom!

The two energies of fire and lightning exploded directly, spreading thick smoke and dust.

"Molotov, Heat Wave!"

Bakura's eyes flickered slightly. Judging from the Thunderbolt attack just now, this Jolteon's special attack strength was indeed not weak.

and……

Bakura looked across, but as the smoke and dust gradually spread, he could only see the blurry figure of the Thunder Spirit.

"Chirp~"

The flamingo let out a high-pitched cry, its fiery wings flapping heavily, sending waves of crimson heat crashing downwards.

A red storm swept down, blowing away the smoke and dust, but there was no sign of the Thunder Spirits on the battlefield.

"Dig a tunnel?"

Bakura narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at a pit where the Thunder Spirit had been standing.

Without a doubt, this is digging a tunnel!

"Thunder Sprite!"

At that moment, Green shouted at Thunder Sprite, because the Heat Wave attack had just ended!

From the cave entrance, a Jolteon poked its head out, and a ball of pure blue water condensed and was pushed into the sky by the Jolteon.

Pray for rain!

"The timing was perfect."

Bakura raised an eyebrow. He had to admit that Ao-ryu had found a really good opportunity to release his rainmaking power.

Because of the smoke and dust obstructing the view, Ao-ryu knew that Bakura would definitely have Moltres clear away the smoke and dust.

He took this opportunity to have the Thunder Spirit use Rain Dance.

The water balloon, meant to bring rain, rose high into the sky and burst open. Dark clouds continued to gather, and in the blink of an eye, large raindrops fell from the sky.

The sweltering air began to cool down as Moltres continuously used its fire attacks.

"Motorbird will have a hard time if it rains."

Gladio glanced at the dark sky and frowned slightly.

Moltres's strength lies in its fire attacks, but in heavy rain, the power of its fire attacks will undoubtedly be weakened.

Conversely, during heavy rain, while Jolteon's electric-type attacks won't be more powerful, their accuracy will undoubtedly be greatly increased.

The flamingo slowly flapped its wings to maintain its balance, while also shaking its head to wipe the rain off its face, clearly disliking the rainy day.

"It's not a big problem~ Even if we're at a slight disadvantage, Onii-chan won't lose to that guy."

Lillie, however, showed no sign of worry whatsoever. She rested her chin on her hand, waved her hand, and spoke.

Well, of course she wasn't worried at all. After all, Bakura had so many legends surrounding him, there was no way he could lose.

“…” Gladion’s eyelids twitched, but he realized that Lillie was right after all…

There's no way that Bakura-san could lose.

……

"In that case, we'll have an advantage."

"Thunder Spirit, use Thunder Attack!"

With a heavy swing of his green arm, he shouted at the Thunder Sprite.

The Thunder Spirit raised its head, its body crackling with brilliant lightning. The next moment, a huge pillar of lightning slammed down on the Moltres.

"Avoid, flamethrower."

Bakura was directing the Moltres while pondering his next battle strategy.

Rainy weather is undoubtedly very disadvantageous for Moltres, but it's not possible to immediately use Sunny Day to counter Jolteon's Rain Dance.

Otherwise, it would give the Thunder Spirit an opportunity to attack, so we need to find the right moment.

Moreover, even if the power of fire-based moves is weakened, it doesn't mean that Jolteon will definitely win against Moltres.

"Chirp~"

The firebird let out a loud cry and flapped its wings to avoid the incoming lightning bolt. This bright attack, although fast, was quite powerful.

However, for a Moltres in the air, avoiding it is not particularly difficult.

Having dodged the lightning attack, Moltres turned and unleashed a jet of fire back at the source.

The rain continued to fall, and the flames were immediately soaked by the rain as soon as they were unleashed, naturally weakening their power.

This is one of the effects of weather.

Under adverse weather conditions, various special moves will be amplified or weakened, thus affecting the outcome of the battle.

"Electromagnetic waves!"

Green wiped the rain off its face, glanced at the Flamethrower, and gave an order to the Thunder Spirit.

It's impossible for this kind of attack to hit a Thunder Spirit that isn't restrained.

Jolteon moved swiftly on all fours, running at an incredible speed, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived beneath Moltres.

Golden electric currents rose up densely and shot towards the firebird.

Electromagnetic waves! If they hit, they can paralyze the opponent!

"Looks like I've been underestimated, Moltres!"

Bakura's lips slowly curled up. He really was taking advantage of his agility to act recklessly.

"Divine Bird Strike!"

Moltres cried out, its body spun around, and blue divine bird flames instantly enveloped its body as it charged straight down at the Thunder Spirit below!

Did they simply ignore the incoming electromagnetic waves?

"Jet Spirit, Voltorb!"
