Gardevoir floated in mid-air, having undergone Mega Evolution, its psychic power covering a thousand-meter radius as it locked onto Jack and all his Pokemon.
As long as Jack had any thought of using Teleport to dodge again, he would be immediately struck down by psychic power.
As for the goateed middle-aged man, he didn’t even have a chance to resist. He had already been hit by Hypnosis and collapsed to the ground, waiting for John to finish dealing with Jack.
"Dragon Claw," John commanded.
Dragon Rush had missed because of Teleport, but it wasn’t a big problem, he’d just use another move.
Mega Garchomp wielded two giant scimitars coated with dark green energy and immediately slashed sideways, intending to cut Jack in half on the spot!
"Iron Defense!" Jack quickly threw another Pokeball.
Magnezone entered the field, activated Iron Defense, and brilliant silver-white light shone all over its body as it stepped forward to intercept Mega Garchomp.
came the sound of metal being blasted through.
Magnezone was cleaved on the spot and sent flying straight into a large tree nearby. Its steel oval body was dented inward like a crashed UFO, as if it had suffered a brutal blow from tremendous force.
It had to thank the world’s Pokemon protection laws, otherwise, Magnezone should have been cut in half instead of just knocked out.
Even though Magnezone had good defense, had activated Iron Defense, and resisted Dragon-type moves so that Dragon Claw could only deal half damage to it...
In the face of Garchomp’s terrifying attack power after Mega Evolution, Jack’s Magnezone still couldn’t withstand a single strike!
"How... how is this possible!" Jack’s eyes widened.
The immediate visual impact somewhat subverted his understanding.
One of the reasons he had trained Magnezone was because it was Steel-type, had good defense, and could serve as both transportation and a shield. Now this shield was easily slashed apart by John’s Mega Garchomp?
Was the gap between himself and John really that huge?
He was one of the Elite Four of the Castelia Federation!
John was just a new Gym Leader from Draconia!
How was this possible!
Jack’s evaluation of John was rapidly rising.
Draconia’s newly promoted Gym Leader → The best of Draconia’s Gym Leaders → This guy definitely has the strength of an Draconia’s Elite Four!
After battling against Dusknoir, Alakazam, and Magnezone just now, John basically had a general understanding of the Elite Four " Jack" of the Castelia Federation.
He was also at the level of a general Gym Leader in Draconia.
This disappointed John.
Even if the Castelia Federation was a small country, its strength shouldn’t be this poor!
What Elite Four? He wasn’t even as good as Senior Harrison.
As for Mega Garchomp being able to instantly defeat Magnezone with a single blow when Iron Defense was activated, John was also a little surprised, but quickly realized it should be because of the Sacred Treasure.
[Dragon Fang: Dragon-type move power increased by 40%, 30% chance to bypass opponent’s defense during physical attacks, and weather effects are enhanced.]
The 30% chance to reduce defense had triggered.
Magnezone, which was as strong as steel, naturally became as fragile as paper after its defense was ignored.
"Alakazam, Psychic! Sableye, Shadow Sneak! Electivire, Ice Punch!"
Facing the approaching Mega Garchomp with terrifying lethality, Jack gave orders in fear.
Alakazam crossed the silver spoons in front of its chest, spreading psychic power and condensing it into a stronger force to suppress Mega Garchomp from above.
Sableye slipped into the shadows under Mega Garchomp’s feet and extended two sharp claws to restrain its movements.
Electivire charged forward, raising its hand to punch, its fist covered with frost!
An Elite Four fighting a Gym Leader three-on-one?
John raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Mega Garchomp immediately used Earthquake. Sableye’s Shadow Sneak had no effect on it at all, and it could still handle Alakazam’s Psychic!
As soon as one foot hit the ground, violent shock waves suddenly surged.
Sableye was forced out of the shadows.
Electivire, which had charged forward, switched from offense to defense in time, spreading its arms to set up Wide Guard, trying to block the Earthquake.
But... please, don’t take this lightly, this was Earthquake blessed by the Orb of Abundance!
Another Sacred Treasure that Mega Garchomp possessed!
It was so powerful that even a real Elite-level Pokemon wouldn’t dare face it head-on!
When Wide Guard met Earthquake, it was almost instantly shattered. Transparent glass-like barrier fragments scattered in mid-air, and Electivire was also blown away.
"Sableye, Mega Evolution!" Jack quickly showed his Key Stone ring.
Sableye underwent Mega Evolution mid-air after being blasted by Earthquake.
Surrounded by colorful rays of light, the red gemstone on its chest squeezed out from its body and quickly enlarged until it became a huge gemstone that could shield its entire body.
Using this as a shield, it planted itself heavily on the ground, which was enough to block the Earthquake!
Jack and Alakazam survived by standing behind Mega Sableye.
But Electivire, as a pure Electric-type Pokemon, was weak to Ground-type moves and was instantly defeated on the spot!
"Crunch," John added his instructions.
Jack and Alakazam’s survival was only temporary.
John, who had figured out Jack’s strength, had no interest in continuing to fight him.
Mega Gardevoir raised its hands, and in the sky with its light raindrops, the dark clouds parted, revealing a night-like starry sky as pink light fell from above.
It covered Alakazam, Mega Sableye, and Jack.
A pink meteor shower descended.
Meanwhile, Mega Garchomp stepped forward, exuding the ferocity of the dragon clan. Black energy spots floated all over its body as Dark-type energy filled its bloody maw. Its dragon eyes locked vertically onto Alakazam, and it attacked suddenly, biting like a crocodile or shark!
