Seizing the opportunity, Natsuhiko, with the power of a secondary core, caught Hilona off guard by having Latios connect the entire team.
Natsuhiko had a strong sense of purpose.
Once Latios appeared and demonstrated certain abilities, he decided to develop it as a secondary core.
And when Latios, Infernape, and Beedrill still had a gap in strength, Natsuhiko tried to train them together to improve their momentum and synergy.
So, even if Alakazam was restrained by Gardevoir, among the five remaining Pokémon of Natsuhiko, the "brain" was still present.
It was still possible to perfectly manage the connection between Pokémon.
The only difference was.
Previously, Latios always operated under Alakazam's leadership.
But today, Latios completely took over the organizational core authority, organizing its companions in battle for the first time.
This was the effect of Natsuhiko's long-term intentional training.
Although Latios was still inexperienced compared to Alakazam, it performed quite well.
And the Pokémon that had long achieved enough momentum through training were willing and trusting of Latios's abilities.
Natsuhiko's so-called "Unlimited Defense Swap" system, the "chess" style of play, was primarily targeted in defense.
And in offense, the most important step was to find the opponent's weak point.
Points that were either forgotten or completely unaware of potential danger.
Lucario and Garchomp's strong attacks, these two Pokémon would certainly not become the main target.
Spiritomb's attributes predetermined its good resistance, hard to overcome instantly.
Glaceon was a good choice, as Infernape had the perfect type advantage over it and was also the easiest breakthrough point.
As for Togekiss, with its agility and aerial advantage, it existed relatively low-profilely.
So Natsuhiko and his Pokémon, under the guise of attacking Glaceon, adopted a Wei Qi-jia Zhao strategy to "rescue" Latios, while actually targeting Togekiss, a Pokémon with strong control and turnaround ability.
The result?
Under Latios's continuous and skillful "Exchange Arena" coordination, all attacks simultaneously targeted Togekiss.
Without predicting in advance, Hilona's Togekiss undoubtedly became the breakthrough point.
"Togekiss has lost its battle ability!"
The commentator was unable to narrate this fast-paced and dazzling battle.
In what felt like the blink of an eye, unable to even figure out which Pokémon were where, Hilona's Togekiss lost battle ability.
This process...
Was too fast.
Hilona's delicate face tensed, looking at Natsuhiko.
Her eyes bore astonishment, entanglement, contemplation, and a bit of admiration.
Dual core.
Hilona naturally understood the cause of the instantaneous situation.
She knew Natsuhiko's all-player battle ability was stronger, but she didn't expect it to be to this extent.
The dual core system had been constructed already.
Although she wasn't as perceptive as Agatha or Genji, who could easily see that Natsuhiko's dual core system was not yet perfected, and Latios had many flaws.
But whether it's an incomplete dual core or a flawed dual core, it's still a dual core.
Hilona attempted to use Gardevoir as the core, and her tactical thinking was fundamentally similar to Natsuhiko.
So she understood how strong Latios's coordination ability would be after Alakazam was restrained.
She couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Forcefully suppressing the helplessness in her heart.
Togekiss had already lost its battle ability, so what should she do next?
As she stared at Natsuhiko, various tactics flashed through her mind, but she saw the glimmer of psychic power in Natsuhiko's eyes.
He was going to take over the match.
Was he really that serious... Hilona felt a bit deflated.
But after thinking about it, it was also a form of respect for her, so she felt a bit better.
But, why not use it from the start?
It's not that Natsuhiko wanted to hide it or sandbag.
It's because he laid out the initial tactics very clearly, even though he didn't anticipate Alakazam being restrained by Gardevoir, Latios also executed the tactics well.
So whether he took over or not, the meaning was the same.
He only needed to provide guidance and hints at critical moments.
For example, after seeing through Hilona's intentions, directing Alakazam to seize the weather.
This was how stronger Trainers should be.
Otherwise...
Without mentioning others.
Did she really think Agatha could completely command her Ghost Legion just by speaking?
And now taking over.
Because the preliminary tactics had ended, Latios's experience was not as rich as Alakazam's, he felt it necessary to take over.
Whether for the battle or to guide Latios.
...
After Togekiss lost its battle ability, the two sides separated again.
With one less Pokémon, Hilona's side inevitably felt a bit underwhelming.
But Hilona is Hilona.
Suddenly losing a Pokémon put her at a disadvantage and in an unfavorable position, but she still strived to find opportunities to open the situation.
Initiating an attack again.
Garchomp and Lucario remained as the spearheads of attack, fighting fiercely with Beedrill and Infernape.
With Double Needle turning into blades, Beedrill seized the battle moments to strengthen with "Sword Dance," greatly increasing its attack power while its speed created a situation where neither it nor Garchomp could overpower the other in the short term.
