Pokemon : The Master of Dragon-Types

Chapter 420

Jacob patiently waited for everyone's Pokémon to launch their assault. Facing the fierce attacks from the various Pokémon, Jacob remained exceptionally calm, without the slightest panic in his eyes.

His composure, however, instilled a sense of unease in everyone's hearts.

Why could "Giovanni" remain so calm at such a critical moment, as if everything was within his control?

"Be careful," Knox reminded everyone.

"Don't worry, he can't cause any trouble," Pachart said with a smile. "With the four of us attacking together, there's no way he can escape, right?"

Attacks of various types rained down on Gigantamax Iron Valiant. When all the attacks landed on Iron Valiant, Jacob's voice finally rang out.

"Lapras, G-Max Resonance!"

"Iron Valiant, Max Knuckle—attack Typhlosion!"

Jacob had been waiting, waiting for the perfect moment to make his move.

He waited until all the Pokémon were close to Iron Valiant before having it attack. Even if Iron Valiant got injured, it didn't matter.

Because he had to ensure that not a single person could escape!

Jacob's voice was calm because he knew that with two Gigantamax Pokémon on the field, he was definitely in an unbeatable position. His only concern was whether someone would desperately try to flee, thus exposing his identity.

Gigantamax Iron Valiant's strength was immense, but if these people scattered and ran in different directions, Gigantamax Iron Valiant might not actually be able to catch them all. That's why Jacob chose to have Gigantamax Iron Valiant take a hit.

Everyone present chose to attack; no one ran, which was exactly what Jacob wanted.

One Gigantamax Lapras might struggle against the six Champion-level Pokémon before him, but with the addition of Gigantamax Iron Valiant, the situation completely reversed.

Gigantamax Lapras was responsible for support, while Gigantamax Iron Valiant specialized in offense. Their division of labor was clear, and each performed its role, resulting in synergy where one plus one was greater than two.

Gigantamax Lapras raised its long neck, and Ice-type energy soared into the sky, causing massive ice spheres to fall from above.

Jacob no longer remembered how many times Gigantamax Lapras had used a Max Move, but it was clear that Gigantamax Lapras was reaching its limit.

It had given its all; the Dynamax energy within its body was nearly depleted. From this point on, Gigantamax Lapras could no longer use any Max Moves.

Jacob gently stroked Gigantamax Lapras's shell and softly said, "Lapras, you've done very well. Don't worry—not a single one of these people will escape."

After setting up Aurora Veil, Gigantamax Lapras's task was complete. The rest could be left to Gigantamax Iron Valiant; it only needed to provide support from the side.

Hearing Jacob's command, Gigantamax Iron Valiant finally moved.

In that instant, its eyes sharpened, and its aura surged. Fighting-type energy, like a blazing inferno, enveloped its body, igniting the entire night.

Iron Valiant locked onto Typhlosion, its powerful aura firmly fixing on the Fire-type, engulfing it like a surging tide.

At this moment, Iron Valiant's aura erupted, causing all other Pokémon to freeze, and time seemed to stand still.

Fighting-type energy surged from Iron Valiant's body like a volcanic eruption, instantly forming a massive energy fist in the air.

Max Knuckle!

The giant energy fist descended from the sky, striking directly at Typhlosion, leaving it no room to dodge.

With the boost from the S-rank Life Orb, Max Knuckle's power had reached a terrifying level!

"Boom!"

Iron Valiant's attack was too fast. Before anyone could react, they only heard a massive impact. The giant energy fist slammed into Typhlosion, blasting a huge crater in the ground.

Countless cracks formed around Typhlosion, spreading like a spiderweb and kicking up immense dust.

The reason Jacob chose Typhlosion as his first target was because Typhlosion carried the crucial item—the Firium Z!

By knocking out Typhlosion in one hit, Adonis couldn't even use his Z-Move.

At the same time, Gigantamax Iron Valiant's attack surged even higher, which was the additional effect of Max Knuckle: boosted Attack!

Iron Valiant, already possessing extremely high Attack, now had it further boosted, reaching a horrifying level.

As the dust settled, Typhlosion's body was revealed—eyes rolled back, covered in blood, lying motionless in the deep crater.

While knocking out Typhlosion in one hit, Iron Valiant didn't stop for a moment. It pushed off the ground with immense force, its body exploding with astonishing speed.

"Don't let them escape, Iron Valiant!" Jacob's deadly voice rang out.

Iron Valiant's greatest strength had always been its Speed. Even after Gigantamaxing, despite its body growing significantly, its Speed remained undiminished. It directly wielded the twin-bladed weapon in its hands, preparing a powerful attack.

"Aura Sphere!"

An Aura Sphere pierced through the night, enveloped in a large amount of Fighting-type energy, and hurtled toward Torkoal.

Facing Torkoal, which had extremely high physical Defense, Iron Valiant chose to break through with the special-attacking Aura Sphere this time.

"Oh no!" Adonis finally realized he had severely misjudged the situation. At this moment, he couldn't care about anything else and decisively commanded, "Torkoal, use Protect!"

"Will that work? Lapras, Hydro Pump!"

The Protect move slightly delayed the inevitable, but soon Torkoal was engulfed by Lapras's Hydro Pump, directly taking massive damage and becoming critically wounded.

Only then did the others begin to feel the urge to retreat, backing away one after another.

The strength of this Gigantamax Pokémon was terrifying. In just an instant, two of Adonis's Pokémon had lost their combat capability!

"Eliminate him!" Jacob's chilling voice rang out. He pointed a finger, giving the command to Iron Valiant, and almost as soon as Jacob's voice fell—

Iron Valiant raised its hand, and a sharp flash of light—a purple glow—illuminated the area. Iron Valiant unleashed a devastating slash, and the wind howled. Adonis, unprotected by his Champion-level Pokémon, was cut down!

Adonis is dead?!

Everything happened too fast, too fast for everyone to even react.

"Dazzling Gleam, Iron Valiant! Don't let anyone escape!"

Jacob's deadly voice rang out. The reason he had Iron Valiant deal with Typhlosion and Torkoal first was primarily because these two Pokémon had a double resistance to Fairy-type moves, offering some resistance to Dazzling Gleam.

"Run!" At this moment, everyone realized something was terribly wrong.

The reversal of the situation came too quickly.

They had originally held the advantage, on the verge of defeating Jacob, yet in such a short moment, Jacob had eliminated Adonis.

Pachart, Knox, and Dick exchanged glances.

This Iron Valiant was simply too strong, even stronger than Gigantamax Lapras.

"Run separately—let's split up and flee!" Pachart was anxious, secretly regretting taking on this thankless task and provoking such a dangerous opponent.

However, before they could even act, Jacob's chilling voice rang out again: "Trying to run? Lapras, Sheer Cold!"

Light shimmered on Iron Valiant's body, and dazzling Fairy-type energy erupted, spraying in all directions, impacting every Pokémon present and dealing massive damage.

At the same time, Gigantamax Lapras also released an icy chill, like winter sweeping through, freezing the entire Fluorescent Forest.

The area-of-effect attacks from the two Gigantamax Pokémon forced everyone to command their Pokémon to resist with all their might.

"Use whatever trump cards you have quickly, or you'll end up like Adonis—dead!" Dick's voice rang out. He touched the Z-Ring on his wrist and was the first to attack. "Palossand, Never-Ending Nightmare!"

Hearing Dick's words, the other two also fought desperately, performing their unique poses and unleashing their Z-Moves!

"Gothitelle, Shattered Psyche!"

"Blaziken, All-Out Pummeling!"
