Chapter 856: Reinforcements
Chapter 856: Reinforcements
Yuga\'s group was under attack, and the buyers who had obtained the blue potential Pokémon, including Wallace and Robert, were also being attacked.
At this moment, Wallace and Robert were surrounded by a group of Crobat, and two Melotic by their side unleashed a blizzard, freezing the Crobat one by one.
"Senior, are these people here for the Pokémon from the auction?" Robert asked Wallace, looking at the black-clad individuals who had suddenly appeared.
Wallace frowned and replied, "It seems so, but their primary objective should be that Larvitar. Otherwise, they wouldn\'t have caused such a commotion for the other Pokémon."
"In that case, isn\'t Yuga\'s situation troublesome?" Robert voiced his concerns.
"You\'d better focus on dealing with these people instead of worrying about others. After all, he\'s an Elite level Trainer, and it\'s not your turn to worry about him," Wallace said, directing his Melotic to launch another attack on the black-clad individuals.
Robert found Wallace\'s words reasonable and commanded his own Melotic to cooperate with Wallace in attacking the black-clad individuals.
Meanwhile, the two black-clad individuals on Yuga\'s side, seeing their Persian and Ariados defeated, stood up unsteadily and recalled their Persian and Ariados. Then, they released a Starmie and an Octillery.
Seeing the newly released Octillery and Starmie, Yuga pulled Nick behind him and Malva frowned, saying, "They never learn. These Pokémon won\'t make much of a difference."
Octillery and Starmie both used their Hydro Pumps simultaneously, combining them into a massive spiral water column.
Yuga\'s Gengar and Malva\'s Chandelure both flashed forward, and two Dark Pulse were unleashed, instantly dispersing the combined Hydro Pump.
Octillery and Starmie were about to make another move, but Gengar\'s Thunderbolt struck first. Under Gengar\'s Thunderbolt, the two Water-type Pokémon instantly lost their combat capabilities.
Just as Gengar was about to deal with the two black-clad individuals, a Espeon shot out and used psychic power to pull the two black-clad individuals away.
"Oh dear, little brother, no need to be so aggressive," one of the women said.
Two women emerged from the corner, also dressed in tight black clothing, but unlike the previous two black-clad individuals, these two were not wearing masks.
The speaking woman had golden curly hair, while the other had short blue-gray hair.
With the appearance of the two women, a more formidable Ariados appeared on the ceiling, glaring down at Nick.
Espeon tossed the injured black-clad individuals aside and stood in front of the two women.
Yuga was not pleased with how he addressed the woman with golden curly hair. "So you\'re the ones who were stalling for time to wait for these two!"
"Oh dear! You\'re quite perceptive, little brother!" the woman with golden curly hair responded.
Malva stared at the two women for a moment and then said in a deep voice, "Are you... Annie and Oakley?"
"So, the Elite Four Malva knows us!" the woman with short blue-gray hair, who was Oakley, said in surprise.
Annie and Oakley? Were they well-known?
Listening to these unfamiliar names, Yuga couldn\'t recall who these two women were. However, he knew this wasn\'t the time to ask questions.
Malva continued, "I\'ve heard of both of you, but I never expected you to dare to appear before me. After all, I am an Elite Four."
Annie: "Well said! We sisters haven\'t had a chance to face off against the Elite Four yet."
Malva snorted, "You have no idea how high the heavens are, but with a pair of wings, you think you can soar to the sky."
Oakley: "Malva, you have quite a sharp tongue. Seems like you\'ve been living too comfortably."
Listening to these three women converse, Yuga felt like they were bickering.
"Chandelure, Shadow Ball!"
A ring-shaped energy was unleashed by Malva\'s Chandelure, swiftly heading towards Annie\'s Espeon.
Espeon agilely leaped to the side, evading Chandelure\'s attack, and quickly retaliated with a massive Shadow Ball.
At the same time, the Ariados on the ceiling started to move as well. It jumped down, and its four sharp legs moved swiftly, approaching Nick behind Yuga in the blink of an eye.
In the air, Gengar noticed this and threw several Shadow Balls to drive the approaching Ariados away.
Nick, who had been calmly hiding behind Yuga, remained composed.
While Chandelure was dealing with Espeon and Gengar was handling Ariados, a Vileplume quietly approached Yuga and Nick. Yuga, with his sensitive Grass-type Pokémon instincts, barely detected it.
Before Vileplume could launch an attack, a Charizard appeared beside Yuga and Nick, opening its mouth to release a Fire Blast.
In a panic, the under attack Vileplume used Petal Dance to counter the Fire Blast from Charizard, but it still got scorched.
The wounded Vileplume retreated quickly to Oakley\'s side and didn\'t dare to attack again.
Oakley teased, "Little brother, you really don\'t know how to cherish beauty. You won\'t find a wife with that attitude."
Hearing Annie\'s scolding, Malva felt like he could see a string of black lines above her head. The battle between Malva and Chandelure against Annie and Espeon intensified, filling the corridor with surging heatwaves.
Seeing Espeon once again thrown back by Chandelure\'s Flamethrower, Malva snorted, "How did someone as stupid as you survive till now?"
"Stupid?"
Enraged by Malva\'s words, Annie took out a Poké Ball and released a Jynx.
The corridor they were in wasn\'t very wide, and with so many Pokémon and people present, it quickly became crowded.
Jynx, with its "charming" appearance, immediately began blowing a fierce Blizzard down the corridor.
In the narrow space, the power of Blizzard seemed to have been amplified. The previously warm corridor instantly turned icy and bone-chilling.
Yuga, witnessing Jynx "charming" appearance for the first time, was struck by the contrast between it and Gardevoir, making Jynx\'s looming figure amidst the Blizzard was indescribable.
Yuga: "Charizard, Flamethrower!"
Malva: "Chandelure, Flamethrower!"
Two streams of fire shot out, combining into one, and swept toward Jynx, who was stirring the Blizzard.
