Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

Bob did not hesitate.

"Use Flame Vortex!"

The Duckbill Flame Beast raised its two cannons.

A vortex of flames swirled and spread out from its muzzle, like an ever-expanding ring of fire.

Flames spread outwards from the duckbill fire beast like a tornado.

The flames stretched out like tentacles in every direction, reaching into every wisp of black smoke.

As the flames spread, a painful roar suddenly came from the depths of the smoke.

"Roar--!"

The cannon of the Duckbill Flame Beast turned in that direction without hesitation.

With firepower at full blast, the jets of flame poured into the black smoke as if they were free.

"wrong!"

Suddenly, Blaine realized something.

That voice... it sounded too deliberate.

But it was too late!

Another sharp pain shot through the duckbill fire beast's waist.

I instinctively turned my head and saw the Charizard standing faintly beside me.

The dragon's claws were deeply embedded in its waist, and a malicious smile seemed to be spreading across its lips.

"Roar?"

How can Pokémon fall for this trick twice?

The duckbill fire beast's brain short-circuited for 0.5 seconds.

It opened its mouth and let out a whimper that sounded like both an insult and a breakdown.

"Gah—?!"

The Duckbill Flame Beast was completely enraged.

Its entire body lit up again, and the aura of its fiery form surged wildly from its surface.

This wasn't a strategic micromanagement; it was a pure, instinctive outburst of anger.

Temperature exploded from its body, and heat waves swept outwards like a tsunami.

The fire-breathing dragon was right next to it.

This time it did not retreat.

It's just raising the temperature! Anyone can do that!

Even when its health is low, its fierce fire will not falter in the slightest!

Enveloped in flames.

It raised its claws and approached the duck-billed fire beast, letting the fierce fire and its fiery body devour each other.

Xiaoxia covered her mouth.

"Charizard is about to go toe-to-toe with Magmortar!"

It exploded?

Upon hearing this, the duckbill fire beast gritted its teeth.

Instead of retreating, advance!

In terms of strength, it's definitely superior to its opponent! If it really comes down to a fight, who's afraid of whom?

It concentrated all its fiery energy into its arms and swung them out fiercely.

It collided with the claws on the other side.

It seemed that the outcome would be decided in that very moment.

Seeing this, Charizard laughed.

whee!

It believed it!

It believed it!

It actually believed it!

How can a Pokémon be fooled three times in one battle?

The real killer move is yet to come!

After all, if all the fire energy is concentrated in the hands, the defense of the lower body is basically zero!

You think I'm going to fight you with my fists?

But what Charizard wants to say is—I have more than just hands, my friend.

Tail.

The thick, powerful tail that had been searching for an opportunity since the start of the battle lashed out the moment Charizard charged forward.

It wasn't a sweeping motion, it was an upward flick.

"Shh-!"

It has a metallic sheen of iron gray.

Its tail, like a battle axe, cut precisely into the defenseless area between the duckbill fire beast's legs from bottom to top at an extremely tricky angle.

Iron Tail.

Hit the bullseye!

185. Half-brothers!

"Gurgle—!!!"

A single sound can break the heart and bring tears to the eyes of those who hear it.

The screams were so piercing they seemed to shatter the heavens, echoing throughout the entire crater.

The duckbill fire beast felt a pain in its groin.

Then his body was violently lifted up from below by Charizard's Iron Tail.

Feet off the ground, the whole person—

No, the entire Pokémon traced a horribly arc through the air.

"boom!!"

It then crashed heavily onto the rocky ground of the crater, sending up a spray of gravel.

Upon witnessing this scene.

Upon seeing this, not only Xiao Gang, but even Pikachu, who was watching from the sidelines, instinctively clenched his legs, feeling a chill creeping up from his groin.

There was not a single surprise.

With its weakness precisely exploited, the Magmortar completely lost its ability to recover.

Lie on your side, carefully avoiding any movement that could cause further injury.

The duckbill fire beast was panting heavily, and its whole body was convulsing uncontrollably.

Even so, its two eyes were fixed on one direction.

It's not a fire-breathing dragon.

It was Xia, who was standing not far away with her mouth agape!

His eyes were filled with accusation.

That blond guy ruined my life!

That blond guy ruined my life!!

Didn't you, blondie, say you were going to explode with me?

Beast!

Where exactly did it explode?!

Xia noticed the burning gaze and couldn't help but look around.

I realized there wasn't anything particularly special around me.

She took a step to the left, feeling a little uneasy, but the duckbill fire beast's gaze immediately followed her to the left.

She quickly stepped half a step to the right, but his gaze followed her closely, never leaving her for a second.

Xiaoxia: "...???"

No, what do you mean by that?

Why are you looking at me?

Go see the fire-breathing dragon!

The less power one has, the less responsibility one bears. Compared to Charizard, she is merely a weak being capable only of simple life activities.

Seeing the Duckbill Flame Beast struggling to get up and fight again, Blaine quickly stepped forward to comfort it.

Given their current state, what's the point of fighting? It looks like they won't even be able to stand up.

"Forget it, forget about the Platypus Flame Beast!"

"Gurgle—!!"

The duckbill fire beast let out a low growl of resentment.

"Ugh!"
