Water burst forth and condensed into a Shuriken, its edges gleaming with crystalline precision.

The colorful light transformed the two sharp claws into a massive blade, crackling with energy.

Greninja and Garchomp completed their evolutions simultaneously, their forms radiating power and determination.

Zeraora looked up at Zapdos, and its fighting spirit gradually rose into the air along with its body. It had just been captured, and there was no bond with Chris for the time being, but this did not prevent it from challenging the strong! Especially when facing such a formidable opponent, it didn't mind obeying the instructions of a Trainer who had defeated it before.

Zapdos soaring in the sky saw that these two human thieves dared to send Pokémon to resist. Its eyes flashed with thunder, and it fell into a rage!

"Zaaaap!!!"

With a piercing cry, the thunderclouds in the sky immediately fell into chaos, and countless golden-colored thunderbolts fell from above.

Thunder Wave!

"Greninja, use Role Play!" Chris commanded.

Greninja immediately took out a black top hat from its side and placed it on its head with theatrical flair.

Zapdos possessed two abilities: the normal ability "Pressure," and the hidden ability "Static." The former made Pokémon consume more energy when using moves, while the latter paralyzed attackers when hit by physical contact moves.

Neither of these abilities could ignore Electric-type moves.

Therefore, the target of Greninja's "Role Play" was not Zapdos, but Zeraora.

The target of Role Play didn't have to be an opponent; it could be any Pokémon. As long as the target was within a certain range of Greninja, it could be "Role Played."

"Boom boom boom!!"

The thunder baptized the earth and struck all three Pokémon hard. Chris had already been teleported to safety by Mega Gardevoir in advance.

When the thunder gradually dissipated, the smoke and dust were blown away by a gust of wind, revealing the figures of three Pokémon standing strong.

"Graaah!" Mega Garchomp bared its fangs, and its two blade-like appendages gradually became black and green with energy.

Greninja folded its arms indifferently, its expression grim and focused.

Zeraora licked its lips, savoring the taste of the thunder that had just been absorbed into its body.

Electric moves were ineffective against all three of them now, and the damage they suffered was only from the physical impact of the thunder. Not worth mentioning!

"Greninja, Water Shuriken!"

"Garchomp, Dragon Claw!"

"Zeraora, intercept it!" Chris gave three instructions in rapid succession.

The three Pokémon moved at once.

Greninja reached out and grasped the Fuuma Shuriken, enlarging it and coating it with a layer of gold, while a spiral Aura Sphere condensed within its core.

Zeraora soared into the sky and transformed into a spark that shot straight toward Zapdos, with a sparkling ice crystal forming at the tip of its right fist. Ice Punch - this was a move Chris had expected to use against Zapdos, and he had specially taught it to Zeraora using a TM.

The Ice Spark arrived in an instant.

Zapdos was startled by the speed of the large white-furred cat before it, and immediately flapped its wings to dodge at an alarming speed.

Both Pokémon possessed incredible speed. In Chris's eyes, the current sky was filled with a white spark chasing a golden spark, flashing back and forth.

But Zapdos soon discovered that even though it was using its fastest speed, the distance between itself and Zeraora was still rapidly shortening.

One breath's time.

The chill hit its face.

Zeraora had already rushed up to Zapdos with its freezing fist, aiming to punch Zapdos directly in the head. It had the unmistakable intent to land a decisive blow!

Zapdos performed an aerial maneuver - Teleport!

The extraordinary thing about this particular Zapdos was that it had also mastered the power of space.

Zapdos' huge body teleported a hundred meters away, and Zeraora's Ice Punch struck nothing but air.

"Boom!" It wasn't the explosion of fists hitting air, but the heavy sound of sharp blades slashing against steel.

The sound came from behind Zapdos.

Two large blades entwined with dark green energy slashed at Zapdos' back with unrivaled strength, immediately causing it to sustain injuries and crash toward the ground.

The perpetrator was Chris's Mega Garchomp, who descended with scarlet dragon eyes and a face full of fierce determination.

This attack had been prepared for a long time, and also utilized advanced battle tactics.

Mega Gardevoir had sent Mega Garchomp to Zapdos' Teleport destination through its own Teleport to launch a surprise attack.

It was good that Zapdos mastered the power of space, but this was not only its advantage, but also its weakness.

The landing point of Teleport could be tracked through spatial power. Whether it could be found or not depended on the strength of spatial control between the one using Teleport and the one searching for the Teleport location.

Could Zapdos compare with Mega Gardevoir in terms of spatial power control?

It wasn't that Chris looked down on Zapdos.

Mega Gardevoir was equipped with the "Lustrous Orb" from Palkia, the god of space itself!

Comparing spatial power with Mega Gardevoir? It didn't have that kind of capability!

So, Chris had been waiting for Zapdos to use Teleport so that he could have Mega Gardevoir teleport Mega Garchomp to launch a sneak attack at the spatial destination point.

As for whether Zapdos could react to dodge this sneak attack - Mega Gardevoir was proficient in "Future Sight," and all calculations were perfect. Mega Garchomp appeared at the most critical moment.

If anyone had been watching Zapdos' landing point carefully, they could see that Mega Garchomp appeared first, slashed out its blade in the air, and then Zapdos actively moved into the attack.

"Zaaaap!!"

A hoarse wail echoed through the air.

Zapdos fell from the sky with a severely injured back.

But Chris's attack was not over yet.

A Spiral Aura Golden Shuriken flew up from the ground, and its speed was as fast as a cannonball blasted from a cannon. No, it should be compared to a cruise missile. The Aura Sphere at the core of the Spiral Aura Golden Shuriken could fire "tracking projectiles"!

Zapdos hastily gritted its teeth and activated Agility to dodge, the electric current in the area nearly condensed into physical form due to its rage.

With its speed, it should not be a problem to fully evade the Spiral Aura Golden Shuriken.

But Mega Gardevoir could teleport not only Pokémon, but also moves!

The Spiral Aura Golden Shuriken, which had obviously been dodged by Zapdos, suddenly teleported directly in front of Zapdos.

Zapdos couldn't stop its forward momentum, and instinctively chose to Teleport again.

And when it teleported a hundred meters away, just as it materialized, the Spiral Aura Golden Shuriken followed like a shadow, sticking to its back like a guided missile.

"BOOM!"
