<h4>Chapter 524: Transition</h4>
Upon Tsareena''s entrance, it immediately closed the distance to Nales at a rapid pace. Nales remained still, watching Tsareena''s swift movements with a cold gaze.
As Tsareena drew closer to Nales, methrower were unleashed towards Tsareena under Nales'' control.
The quality of this particr Tsareena was indeed exceptional. With its exceptional speed and those long legs, brimming with incredible springiness, it easily evaded the fiery onught.
It''s important to note that this Nales'' attack speed was not slow, and its rate of fire was high, with one methrower following another.
Given the substantial power difference, the fact that Tsareena could calmly evade Nales'' attacks was quite remarkable.
Observing Tsareena effortlessly dodging so many of her attacks, Nales snorted in dissatisfaction. It vigorously swept all nine of its tails, causing a Heat Wave to fill the area.
Heat Wave was an area-of-effect attack, unlike the concentrated methrower. Even with Tsareena''s incredible speed, she couldn''t avoid such an attack.
Caught in the fiery gusts produced by the Heat Wave, Tsareena was forced to halt her steps and knelt on the ground in pain.
Seeing Tsareena in distress, this Nales raised its head in satisfaction. With its proud gaze, its imposing demeanor, and its wless white fur, it exuded an air of beauty.
Clearly, this Nales possessed a highly arrogant disposition. However, its strength undeniably justified that arrogance.
Observing Nales'' expression, which conveyed disdain for Tsareena, Sora could only shake his head in resignation. Evidently, he was well aware of his Nales'' temperamental nature.
Nevertheless, despite its arrogance, this Nales took battles seriously. It belonged to the category of Pokémon that despised opponents tactically but took their personalities into ount strategically.
After Tsareena was hit by the Heat Wave, Nales promptly directed another methrower toward her.
Tsareena gracefully leaped to the side, avoiding Nales'' methrower, and thenunched a long-range magical leaf attack at Nales.
Forced by Nales'' fiery breath not to approach closely, Tsareena had no choice but to employ a special attack it wasn''t particrly skilled in to deal with Nales.
However, this less intense magical leaf attack wouldn''t cause significant damage to Nales. It simply caused Nales to lift its nine tailed like fans and use its Steel-type move, Iron Tail, to swat away all the magical leaves that came its way.
Seeing Tsareena struggling on the field, frustration built up between Christine''s eyebrows like a small mountain.
"Tsareena, Leaf Storm!"
Upon Christine''smand, Tsareena raised her hands, and countless green leaves gathered around her, quickly forming into a swirling tornado of foliage.
Under Tsareena''s control, the Leaf Storm rushed aggressively towards Nales.
As a Grass-type move, even though Tsareena''s special attack power wasn''t exceptionally high, using this move still inflicted substantial damage.
However, after using it, due to the side effects of Leaf Storm, Tsareena, whose special attack wasn''t strong to begin with, would now face even more worse.
"Nales, Fire st!" Sora promptly ordered Nales to counter the strong gusts from Tsareena''s magical leaf attack with a powerful Fire st.
When the mes collided with the green leaves, numerous charred leaf fragments scattered across the battlefield, apanied by ck ashes drifting down from the sky.
When all the green leaves had fallen to the ground, Nales was astonished to find that Tsareena had disappeared into the distance.
"Nales, behind you!" Sora shouted loudly behind Nales.
Nales quickly turned around but it was already toote. All it saw was Tsareena''s long, slender leg.
Unbeknownst to Nales, Tsareena had silently approached its rear during the chaos caused by the magical leaf attack, as Nales had beenpletely focused on the swirling leaves.
Tsareena''s long leg delivered a Trop Kick to Nales'' chin, sending Nales tumbling and rolling. Its pristine white fur was now covered in the ck ash left behind by the scorched leaves.
Due to the chin hit, Nales'' throat was damaged, causing it to emit a wheezing, snoring sound of difort.
Tsareena''s Trop Kick was their signature move. Despite being an intermediate skill, due to the perfect synergy with their species, Trop Kick could unleash extraordinary power when used by Tsareena.
Nales, rising from the ground, shook off the dust on its body. It was filled with anger. Nales detested getting its pristine white fur dirty; it was a source of pride.
Nales opened its mouth andunched a beam of light into the sky, using the weather skill Sunny Day. At this time, the sunny weather caused by its ability Drought had already dissipated.
After using Sunny Day, Nales vigorously swayed its Nales. Streams of mes surged from its body, forming waves of scorching heat that swept towards Tsareena not far away.
The fury within Nales allowed it to seamlessly transition between Sunny Day and Heat Wave without pause. Tsareena had no chance to react and was submerged in an endless sea of heatwaves.
Once the heatwaves receded, Tsareenay on the ground,pletely red from the intense heat. Nales, too, was breathing heavily. The surging heatwaves had consumed a significant amount of its energy.
Seeing the heavily injured Tsareena, Christine couldn''t help but feel pity as she recalled it.
Observing Nales on the battlefield, Christine contemted silently and then quietly took out a special Poké Ball she had never showcased before.
It was a Luxury Ball.
As a sh of red light burst forth, a green, humanoid Pokémon appeared on the battlefield.
It was a Cacturne.
Upon the arrival of Cacturne, whether it was Yuga or the judges in the referee''s box, they all widened their eyes.
Yuga possessed a Insight ability, and the six judges were all seasoned individuals. They instantly recognized that this Cacturne was a pseudo-Elite level Pokémon.
...
<<cacturne>> </cacturne>
Type: Grass/Dark
Ability: Sand Veil
Gender: Male
Potential: Blue
Level: 63
Moves: Poison Sting, Growth, Leech Seed, Needle Arm, Ingrain, Sucker Punch, Pin Missile, Energy Ball, Sandstorm, Spiky Shield, Brick Break, Dark Pulse, Drain Punch.
...
Pokémon had much stronger perception abilities than humans. The mere presence of Cacturne exerted immense pressure on Nales. Despite its face being covered in dust but still maintaining its prideful expression, Nales disyed a sense of solemnity.
Under this enormous pressure, Nales decided to take the initiative. It unleashed a powerful Fire st aimed at Cacturne.
Facing such a fierce attack, Cacturne casually flung a Dark Pulse, effortlessly shattering the iing fire.
Cacturne was the kind of Pokémon with strong physical and special attack capabilities. Therefore, when confronted with Nales'' ranged assault, it remained undaunted. It wouldn''t find itself in the awkward situation that Abomasnow and Tsareena faced.
The Pokémon at the pseudo-Elite level are no longer on the same level as the ordinary Pokémon. Even if the Shiny Nales is very good, he can only bow his head obediently when facing Cacturne at the pseudo-Elite level.
Pokémon have varying degrees of racial advantages and disadvantages, but once they reach the Elite level, their life levels undergo evolution, and this kind of racial advantages or disadvantages is to some extent greatly diminished.
And the pseudo-Elite level represents the transition before this life level evolution, symbolizing that they are about to be powerful beings in another life level.
