Chapter 199 199: Crushing Strength
It was honestly hard for Sam to feel any interest in a mid-Elite level Venomoth.
---
"Aerodactyl, you're up."
---
Sam stretched slightly, ready to warm up against the challengers.
---
Aerodactyl vs. Venomoth
Among the Trainers present, skill levels varied—
But their judgment didn't.
---
At a glance—
Aku's Venomoth was completely suppressed by Aerodactyl in both presence and momentum.
---
This is going to be tough…
---
Beating Aerodactyl with Venomoth?
---
That was almost impossible.
---
Sam gestured calmly.
---
"You go first."
---
Aku shouted:
"Venomoth, use Psybeam!"
---
A pink beam shot out—
Aimed straight at Aerodactyl.
---
Sam didn't even bother giving a command.
---
He simply waved his hand—
Letting Aerodactyl act freely.
---
Aerodactyl grinned.
---
Dark energy gathered in its jaws—
---
Crunch.
---
It didn't even dodge.
---
The Psybeam hit directly—
But—
---
It did nothing.
---
Not even enough to tickle it.
---
In the next instant—
Aerodactyl closed the distance.
---
Its fangs pierced Venomoth's wings—
Dark energy exploded—
---
And the battle ended instantly.
---
If Aerodactyl had used full force—
Venomoth might've been out for months.
---
"Venomoth is unable to battle."
"Winner: Sam."
---
Yellow made the call without hesitation.
---
Reaction
Silence filled the arena.
---
The audience exchanged glances—
Their expressions turning serious.
---
They had done some research.
---
And they all knew—
---
Aerodactyl wasn't even among Sam's strongest Pokémon.
---
Yet even this Pokémon—
Was overwhelming.
---
Some challengers were already regretting showing up.
---
As for Sam—
---
No emotion.
---
No excitement.
---
This kind of victory meant nothing.
---
He simply stood there—
Waiting for the next challenger.
---
Challenger #2
"I'm number two!"
---
A boy quickly stood up—
Raising his bamboo stick.
---
Around fourteen or fifteen—
Like most of the challengers present.
---
"Second challenger: Amu from Saffron City!"
"Pokémon: Snorlax!"
---
A massive figure appeared.
---
Snorlax
---
Dark blue body.
Huge white belly.
Eyes always closed.
---
Type: Normal
Strength: Beginner Gym Level
Potential: Gym Level
---
The crowd erupted.
---
"Snorlax!!"
---
It wasn't a common Pokémon.
---
Hard to find—
Even harder to raise.
---
It consumed enormous amounts of food daily—
Something only wealthy Trainers could afford.
---
This time—
The audience was genuinely excited.
---
A real fight?
---
"Snorlax…"
---
Even Sam was slightly surprised.
---
He recalled Aerodactyl.
---
Beating Snorlax wasn't hard—
But crushing it decisively?
---
That required a different approach.
---
"Come out—Charizard."
---
Charizard landed on the field—
Already fired up after watching the previous match.
---
In the stands—
A girl whispered:
"Is using Charizard a good idea?"
---
Her companion, focused on the field, replied:
"Not really."
---
"Snorlax's Thick Fat reduces fire damage."
---
"Switching from Aerodactyl to Charizard… isn't ideal."
---
He paused.
---
"But…"
---
"Sam knows his Pokémon better than we do."
---
"Let's just watch."
---
Battle Begins
"Snorlax, use Thunder Punch!"
---
Amu's voice trembled.
---
First time fighting in front of such a crowd—
It showed.
---
Snorlax moved—
Slow, heavy steps shaking the ground.
---
Normally—
It wouldn't even be able to hit a flying Charizard.
---
But—
Sam didn't dodge.
---
He never planned to.
---
"Charizard."
---
"We'll use Thunder Punch too."
---
A direct clash.
---
Lightning surged across Charizard's fist—
Far more powerful than Snorlax's.
---
Even spectators with no battle knowledge could tell—
---
The difference was massive.
---
Fists collided.
---
Boom.
---
Despite its size—
Snorlax was pushed back.
---
Step by step—
Sliding across the field.
---
The visual impact was overwhelming.
---
Like a normal person overpowering a sumo wrestler.
---
Charizard didn't stop.
---
One punch.
Two.
Three.
---
Lightning roared with every strike.
---
Snorlax's thick fat could absorb electric damage—
---
But not raw physical force.
---
Under the barrage—
---
It collapsed.
---
Hard.
---
The ground trembled.
---
And just like that—
---
The second challenger fell.
