Suddenly, Alakazam's spoons began spinning, violently knocking Golurk away. They then continued spinning as they flew toward Golurk.
This attack contained the combined energy of all three Psychic-type Pokémon. It was practically a vastly enhanced Psycho Cut.
If Golurk were struck by those two gigantic spoons, no matter how powerful it was, it would be seriously injured!
"Mamoswine, use Icicle Crash to block the attack. Weezing, use Sludge Bomb with Gyro Ball to counter it!"
Since these moves had not gone through his own methodical training, Tetsuya had to explain every command in detail.
Tetsuya was extremely anxious now and wished he could escape immediately. However, Yamamoto's Pokémon were simply too powerful. The moment he tried to flee, their powerful telekinetic force would bind him.
Moreover, he had no idea how many Shadows were nearby. All he could do now was hope the Airport staff would discover what was happening as soon as possible…
Suddenly, every light in the entire Airport went out, and five Shadows emerged from inside!
"Yamamoto-sama, we've taken control of all the Airport staff," The Shadows reported.
Just five Shadow Team members had managed to take control of the entire Airport!
It seemed they were also experts with Psychic-type Pokémon. Shadow Team did not have many members, but every one of them was an elite. It appeared these five had been lying in wait here all along.
Now that he had appeared here, the Shadows stationed elsewhere would certainly converge on this location. He was already unable to defeat Yamamoto alone. Once these Shadows joined the battle, escape would truly become impossible!
Tetsuya slipped his hand into his pocket and pressed the distress signal on his Pokédex. The battle against Yamamoto continued…
One massive icicle after another fell from the sky as Mamoswine unleashed Icicle Crash. While Golurk retreated, the falling icicles intercepted Alakazam's flying spoons.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The spoons sliced through the icicles one after another, though their momentum gradually began to weaken.
Weezing spun at high speed using Gyro Ball. It then hurled Sludge Bombs with the centrifugal force generated by Gyro Ball, multiplying their power several times over. Even so, they still could not match the attack fueled by the combined energy of three Pokémon.
Weezing attacked and spun while retreating, gradually reducing the spoons' momentum. Only after Golurk had regained its footing did it swing its Shadow Punch forward as well.
The combined power of Mamoswine and Golurk finally succeeded in knocking one of the spoons back.
The other spoon had already forced Weezing into a dangerous situation.
Whoosh~
Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Whoosh…
Mamoswine fired five Icicle Spears in succession, striking Alakazam's spoon with a series of loud clangs. Golurk's Shadow Ball followed immediately afterward, finally forcing the spoon back once again.
By then, the other five Shadows had already surrounded Tetsuya.
Tetsuya had no choice but to send out all of his Pokémon to surround him, ready to enter battle at any moment.
Currently fighting were Mamoswine, Golurk, and the four-headed Weezing. Gengar, with the [Shadow Contract] linked to Tetsuya, remained by his side to protect him, ensuring his safety. Meanwhile, Ditto, Houndoom, Beedrill, and Skorupi kept a close watch on the five Shadow Team members.
The standard line up for a Shadow was five Pokémon. Tetsuya only had four Pokémon available to deal with those grunts, while the opposing side had a total of twenty-five Pokémon!
There was simply no way he could win…
His capacity in one-on-one battles was already quite respectable. The Pokémon he had on hand were all very capable, but there were simply too few of them. If he had to face consecutive battles or fight while outnumbered, he would be powerless no matter how willing he was.
He needed more money, time and more space to raise more Pokémon!
"Heh… Could it be that "the great Yamamoto-sama" needs to gang up on an insignificant nobody like me!?" Tetsuya shouted sternly.
"Tche, you don't need to provoke me, boi. You won't be escaping today. Dozens of Shadows are already gathering here!
…I don't need their help to defeat you. You have no chance of winning," Yamamoto said. He, too, was waiting for the other members to arrive. Only once the main force was here could they quietly bring Tetsuya aboard Shadow Team's ship without attracting attention.
Therefore, all he needed to do was subdue Tetsuya before the main force arrived. Even with Yamamoto's own power, it would be difficult to win in a short time…
However, if he had to rely on his subordinates to defeat a mere kid like Tetsuya, the other Shadows would begin questioning his capacities, which would be absolutely detrimental to his plans for promotion.
That was why Yamamoto was determined to defeat Tetsuya personally!
"Psywave."
At Yamamoto's command, a brilliantly odd colored psychic wave of energy spread across the battlefield. This attack also combined the power of all three Pokémon. Once caught by this wave, the target would be subjected to the relentless hot psychic pressure of all three Psychic-type Pokémon, leaving only death awaiting them.
As Psywave steadily approached, Tetsuya knew that any single Pokémon on his side was completely incapable of matching it.
There was no choice but to fight with his back against the wall…
Tetsuya gritted his teeth and prepared to try the move combination he had designed. It was succeed or die. Either way, he was already completely trapped.
"Mamoswine, [Blizzard Vortex]!"
Mamoswine was the first to unleash its ultimate move. Blizzard roared outward, combining with the Hail falling from the sky to form a gigantic [Blizzard Vortex] under Mamoswine's control.
"Weezing, use Poison Gas and spray all of it into the vortex along the direction of the airflow!"
The four-headed Weezing was the second to attack. Poison Gas poured out continuously, following the airflow of the [Blizzard Vortex]. Wrapped within the vortex's currents, there was no need for Weezing to use Icy Wind again to enfold the Poison Gas.
Mamoswine's Blizzard was far more powerful than Weezing's Icy Wind, and the vortex at the center of [Blizzard Vortex] could completely contain the Poison Gas while the surrounding airflow sealed it inside.
The original [Blizzard Vortex] had now transformed into a black vortex, its center filled with highly concentrated Poison Gas!
"Golurk, use Ice Punch to reinforce it!"
Golurk spread its enormous palms, each as large as an adult's upper body. Cold air swirled around them as it forcefully thrust both palms forward in the direction of the black vortex's airflow.
The rotational force of the [Blizzard Vortex] instantly doubled, sweeping toward Psywave with overwhelming momentum!
Now Psywave collided with the black vortex storm. Golurk continued providing support, Mamoswine constantly maintained the power of Blizzard, and the four-headed Weezing reinforced it with Icy Wind.
Both sides had combined the power of three Pokémon, and the clash between the two ultimate moves fell into a temporary stalemate.
But Tetsuya still had another move in reserve…
'Let's see how you deal with the next one…'
