Pokémon Court

Chapter 318: Battle in Progress



“Not a bad plan, but there’s only one chance. So, you have used it to complete the Grassy Terrain?”

Terrance looked at Tangrowth. Since Grassy Terrain was completed, the power of Grass-type moves would increase significantly, a qualitative change in Tangrowth’s strength.

However, with the prior experience, Beautifly would definitely not be disturbed by Poison Powder again. In the instant Poison Powder was detected, it would make the best judgment to block its invasion.

But Hani has no plan for that. To Hani, since Grassy Terrain has been completed, it signaled that Tangrowth has become invincible.

Whoosh!

In an instant, even thicker and more numerous vines crazily emerged from the ground, tentacles surging toward Beautifly from all directions. One, two, three—over a dozen main vines, along with many smaller branches. With the boost from Grassy Terrain, Tangrowth’s abilities began to display a more frenzied side, completely unshaken by the Silver Wind formed by the crescent-shaped powdery scales just moments ago.

“The crescent-shaped powdery scales certainly have astonishing cutting power and impressive lethality. When facing the attack of vines, they can instantly eradicate them completely, allowing the Beautifly performing Quiver Dance inside to remain undisturbed. Such changes derived from the Quiver Dance state are exceedingly rare.”

“But now, facing attacks from all directions, if the powdery scales aren’t concentrated enough, they won’t be able to destroy the vines immediately. If that happens, Beautifly’s Quiver Dance will inevitably be disrupted by the vines… And these vines, under the control of Hani’s Pokémon, don’t even count as a move that consumes much stamina… With the boost from Grassy Terrain, Tangrowth’s vines, even if severed, can regenerate at an astonishing rate. Right now, they appear to have no weakness. Can Beautifly still hold them off?”

The judges all noticed Beautifly’s disadvantageous situation. The pressure from Tangrowth was overwhelming, far beyond any opponent Terrance had faced before.

The vines, which could be manipulated like tentacles and had such resilient life force even after being damaged, posed a significant threat to Beautifly, which needed a relatively stable environment.

Extreme Quiver Dance could indeed greatly boost Beautifly’s speed, but these infinitely extending vines perfectly restricted Beautifly’s flying space, surrounding it tightly and limiting it to a small area. Upon seeing this, countless onlookers were worried for Beautifly.

“Even if Beautifly can turn the entire perimeter of Silver Wind into a sharp cutting field, if the number of powdery scales decreases, its destructive power will undoubtedly be reduced. If the speed of destroying the vines slows down, there’s a possibility of still being overwhelmed in the end…” Raoul Contesta said.

Even the judges were not optimistic about Beautifly’s situation at this point.

Hani smiled. From the initial restraining of Beautifly from strengthening itself to the overwhelming pressure of Grassy Terrain, the goal has always been to launch a series of attacks that prevent Beautifly from boosting its stats. As long as Beautifly is denied the chance to power up, it poses no real threat. Its attack power and speed were both being restricted by Tangrowth, and now Beautifly was a sitting duck.

On TV, the big screen, and in the audience stands, countless people watched Beautifly nervously, their hearts in their throats. Just when Hani thought she had a huge advantage, a shocking scene unfolded. Terrance’s expression remained unchanged as Beautifly began altering the rhythm of its Quiver Dance, swaying its entire body in various directions and abandoning its usual pattern. It performed a new, visually dazzling variation of Quiver Dance!

Wallace was slightly surprised, and instinctively said, “The stance of Quiver Dance hasn’t changed, but Beautifly keeps altering the angle of its body, twisting and turning, making it seem like Quiver Dance has undergone a major transformation…”

Nurse Joy noticed something and said, “Look, Silver Wind is changing… It seems like new powdery scales are being released by Beautifly… Wait a minute, that doesn’t look like powdery scales—it’s Silver Powder!”

“Silver Wind… has transformed into a vortex in the starry sky!!”

Countless people gaped in awe at the stunning transformation. The scattered Silver Powder quickly merged into the Silver Wind, moving in sync with the rhythm and guided by Beautifly’s dance movements, rapidly spreading around the Silver Wind. At the same time, the Silver Wind seemed to resonate with the changes in Quiver Dance. From its initial irregular form—small and condensed but somewhat chaotic—Silver Wind now appeared as a dazzling vortex, adorned with countless stars, spinning rapidly and emanating a breathtaking brilliance and color, dazzling everyone’s eyes!

The vines that surged from all directions were now facing an even fiercer counterattack from the Silver Wind formed by Beautifly’s special Quiver Dance movements. In the blink of an eye, they were mercilessly shredded. They couldn’t even breach the outermost defense line, let alone disturb Beautifly.

“Tangrowth, keep attacking!!” Hani was shocked and took a step forward, shouting loudly. Tangrowth obeyed, its body swelling in size as it absorbed endless energy from Grassy Terrain to power its attacks. With a series of loud cracks, countless vines shot forward again, clashing violently with the silver vortex. Round after round, the vines collided fiercely with the vortex, trying to break past the Silver Wind while Tangrowth stared intently as if focusing all its mind. But despite its efforts, it still couldn’t break through the outermost defense. At that moment, Hani felt a heavy weight settle in her heart.

“Beautifly actually saved Silver Powder,” Nurse Joy exclaimed. Silver Powder, combined with Beautifly’s own powdery scales, though smaller in quantity, had undergone a magical transformation due to the Silver Powder’s infusion. The cutting power had significantly improved. Paired with the structural change of Silver Wind, now a rapidly spinning vortex, it was like a giant millstone, crazily shredding the vines.

In just a short moment, despite Hani’s unwilling expression, some time passed. Though Beautifly’s Silver Powder and powdery scales were eventually exhausted, by this time, Beautifly had completed at least two rounds of Quiver Dance strengthening. Moreover, during one of those rounds, the upgradation of Silver Wind, had an unexpected influence on Beautifly, making Beautifly’s condition strangely better than before. As the Silver Wind dissipated, Beautifly hovered calmly in the air, flapping its wings as it stared at Tangrowth. At this moment, everyone in the audience could feel the incredibly tense atmosphere.
