Chapter 118 King Yan has perseverance
"A white-striped savage bass? Does this species even still exist?"
Lin Ye was overjoyed, because this white-striped Savage Bass was a legendary, extinct species, just like his Zoroark, and had the potential to evolve into a Water/Ghost-type Ghost-tailed Blackfish.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye naturally became very interested in the white-striped savage bass in front of him.
"When did someone like you appear in Lilycove City? There's no information about you at all. Are you some amateur trainer who just came to join the fun?"
But none of that matters anymore, kid. If you don't want to be blacklisted by our Ocean Team, leave right now.
"Hehe~ Team Aqua is indeed a behemoth, but it can't be said to have absolute power. Let's refrain from making such threatening remarks."
After saying that, Lin Ye's Pokémon all came out and joined the melee, quickly turning the tide of the battle from a losing position.
Ah Chao's face was extremely gloomy, his thick arm muscles were taut, and his fists were clenched so tightly that his knuckles cracked.
He glanced at the dying red Gyarados and the white striped Bass, a resolute look flashing in his eyes, and then pulled out a mysterious stone from who-knows-where!
"We haven't fully mastered this power yet, but there's no other way now, we have to take a gamble."
As he spoke, he lifted the stone high, which emitted a colorful halo and eventually connected to the Megalodon.
Only then did everyone realize that the Megalodon was wearing a crystal-like gem!
"These are... a Mega Stone and a Key Stone. He's planning to Mega Evolve. Swellow, be careful."
"Bang!"
As the light faded, the Megalodon had changed completely. New sharp, tooth-like spikes had grown on its body, and it had grown larger. An even more ferocious and malevolent aura surged into the sky.
"Oh no, it's Mega Sharpedo! He's mastered Mega Evolution!"
Before Naki could think, Mega Sharpedo transformed into a high-pressure water jet and shot straight at Shiny Swellow.
The latter reacted extremely quickly, pulling up at the last moment to dodge the attack, and then flapping its wings to unleash more than a dozen sharp "air blades"!
Megalodon showed no fear of attacking. After missing its target, it used the water flow to stop itself, then suddenly sprinted forward with a water column, easily breaking through the "Air Blade" and finally crashing into Swellow.
The Great Swallow let out a wail as it was knocked away, flying over a hundred meters before finally regaining its footing, revealing a disheveled appearance!
"Oh no! Great Swallow, can you hold on?"
"Sizzle~~"
The Great Swallow let out a sharp cry that showed no sign of weakness, but upon closer listening, one could sense that it was straining and barely holding on!
Most importantly, the Great Swallow had injured its right wing in the collision, making it slightly unstable in flight and greatly reducing its best-known maneuverability.
"We'll help too!"
Seeing that the battle had been turned around, Lin Ye also dispatched some of his Pokémon to help in the fight.
The first to make a move was Froslass, whose "Ice Beam" shot out, freezing Mega Sharpedo, which had once again transformed into a water column, along with the surrounding water column, into ice pillars.
But in the next instant, the ice pillar that had just been frozen began to shatter inch by inch, breaking apart in the blink of an eye. The Megalodon still charged toward its target with unstoppable momentum, its open jaws surging with extreme cold!
"Frozen teeth!"
If a Swellow were to be bitten by a Mega Sharpedo that has now gained the "Strong Jaw" ability, it would be in real danger.
The next moment, a bright green "leaf blade" and a dark purple "sludge bomb" came from afar and landed on the Megalodon at the same time.
"Bang! Bang!"
The two attacks landed on the Megalodon, and although they did not cause fatal damage, they did slightly pause its movements.
Taking advantage of the momentary lapse in concentration, the giant swallow narrowly avoided the bite force of the "Frozen Fang," leaving only a few frozen feathers that had been wiped off its body.
"That was close!"
Naki wiped her sweat, glanced at the Azure Flame Blade Demon beside Lin Ye, and asked:
"By the way, Lin Ye, can your Azure Flame Blade Demon use 'Phosphorus Fire'?"
"Yes, could it be that your Swellow has the 'Perseverance' trait? Then I know what to do!"
"Okay, please!"
Lin Ye looked towards the Azure Flame Blade Demon, which had just cleaved a lightning beast in two and was preparing to find its next target when it heard a command:
"Azure Flame Blade Demon, use 'Phosphorus Fire' on that Great Swallow!"
Azure Flame Blade Demon hesitated for only half a second before immediately doing so, condensing several ghostly blue flames that drifted towards the Great King Swallow.
"Great Swan, this is something that awakens your special abilities, don't resist!" Naki shouted.
After all, with the absolute suppression of the Great Swan's "Master-level" strength, the energy contained in the "Phosphorus Flame," which is normally only at the "Professional-level," would most likely be neutralized by its own enormous energy.
"Pfft~~"
With the Great Swallow completely undefended, the will-o'-the-wisp ignited upon contact and quickly spread across the Great Swallow's emerald green feathers.
Its feathers were covered with sickly red burn marks, and sparks could be faintly seen dancing beneath its skin—a classic case of "burns."
Under normal circumstances, a Pokémon that has been burned will continuously lose stamina, and the power of its physical attacks will be greatly weakened.
But the unusually colored giant swallow in front of us is clearly not "normal".
At the same instant the burning pain struck, its eyes suddenly lit up. The "burn" did not weaken it; instead, it was like igniting the fuse of a powder keg, detonating every bit of potential within it.
This is because its "Perseverance" trait is activated, and its attack power increases instead of decreasing!
However, it is worth noting that this characteristic still cannot prevent loss within the body and cannot be used for extended periods.
Moreover, Swellow is not a high-HP Pokémon to begin with, and its current condition is already very poor, so it needs to finish the battle quickly.
Naki understood this better than anyone else, and the moment the Oddity Swellow's "perseverance" was ignited, she shouted:
"Defeat them with sheer grit!"
In an instant, a dazzling silver light shone on his body, and normal energy surged and was released wildly, condensing into a silver cloak around him, displaying an unprecedented aura.
"Hard-Bearing" is a special Normal-type move, and its power when used normally is only so-so.
However, if the user is in an abnormal state, the power will double.
It's important to know that Swellow is a Normal/Flying-type Pokémon, so it already has a STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus)!
And now, the double boost of "perseverance" and "endurance" is added.
Instantly, the power accumulated from this attack reached a terrifying level, faintly reaching the limit that a "Gym Leader" level could unleash.
"Bang!"
The Great Swellow, transformed into a dazzling silver light, deliberately collided with the Mega Sharpedo, shattering the water column surrounding the latter upon contact.
Immediately afterwards, the entire fish was sent flying and crashed heavily into the lake. Its light dissipated, and it returned to its original form, its aura weakened, its appearance disheveled, and it spat out blood.
"This is bad. The training for Mega Mode has only just begun, and we haven't mastered it yet. Now, with this serious injury, I'm afraid we won't be able to use it for a while."
Ah Chao's face darkened, but then he saw that the Great King Yan opposite him had also lost his ability to fight due to excessive internal energy consumption.
