watched the Mega Metagross striking toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also the first time she had ever been attacked directly by a Pokémon in battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, although Articuno found it novel, she would not simply stand there and take the hits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body became even more agile under the boost of the hail weather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mega Metagross's fist, moving like a phantom, simply could not hit her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a slight tilt of her body, Articuno dodged all of Mega Metagross's Bullet Punches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, Articuno flapped her wings and retreated backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She created some distance between herself and Mega

use Psychic!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Purple psychic energy immediately surged throughout Mega Metagross's entire body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This light gradually condensed into a solid form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the Psychic attack launched toward Articuno.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ice Shard!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blue light erupted from Articuno's body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She flapped her wings once more, and several massive ice blocks instantly appeared before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each of these ice blocks resembled a gigantic rock!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Articuno manipulated the Ice Shards, sending them attacking toward Mega Metagross.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One huge ice block took the lead, colliding with Mega Metagross's Psychic attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Psychic energy that Mega Metagross had just condensed...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...was instantly shattered into

shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there were simply too many of these ice blocks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They attacked one after another, directly surrounding Mega Metagross!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing this strike, Mega Metagross had no way to dodge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These ice blocks instantly crashed into Mega Metagross's body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bang!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive ice blocks slammed solidly into Mega Metagross's metal-like body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They directly smashed a crater into his hard frame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could imagine the power of this attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several ice blocks struck in succession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, Mega Metagross was smashed down toward the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now, he had fallen while frozen into an ice sculpture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, he plummeted from the sky because he had lost the power to control his levitation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like before, this time Mega Metagross also smashed a large hole into the frozen surface upon impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, water from beneath the ice sheet sprayed out from the hole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Mega Metagross struggled to crawl out...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...he was already on his last breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Articuno's level and strength were far too superior to his!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, every skill that hit him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...felt like a ultimate move crashing into his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made him suffer immensely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mega Metagross stood on the icy field, panting heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up at Articuno soaring high in the sky, staring at her with his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gap between the two Pokémon was simply too great!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Articuno, then send him off!

before\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was simply because she wanted to play a little longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why she hadn't been willing to defeat the Mega Metagross in a single strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Su Yu had cooperated very well, letting her battle a while longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, given Articuno's strength, that Mega Metagross could have been

command,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Articuno immediately began flapping her wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, a fierce wind swept across the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with the gale

Blizzard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if it had been swallowed by the monster itself!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the terrifying Blizzard surged forward again, engulfing

witnessed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, many spectators seemed to finally understand the meaning behind the move's name through Articuno's Blizzard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was nothing short of divine judgment from the heavens!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wind howled, and snow filled the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only faintly could one make out Nidoking at the very center, stubbornly resisting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, after the Blizzard had fully swept through,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the heavy snow finally disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the arena, apart from the ice-covered ground, nothing else could be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rocks in the Water Field had also been completely frozen solid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing drawing attention was the Nidoking below, frozen thick in ice, his right arm extended in a blocking posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Nidoking still maintained the defensive pose he had assumed just before facing this attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire Pokémon was covered in solid ice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, transformed into an ice sculpture, Nidoking appeared a deep purple under the faint light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Articuno, use Air Slash to shatter the ice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Articuno in the air looked down at the Pokémon frozen into a block of ice by her own

the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terrifying cold air emanated from his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Nidoking, known for his thick hide and tough flesh, was utterly helpless against this chilling cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His purple skin, due to the extreme low temperature, had turned a deathly pale white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In some places, his skin had even cracked from the freezing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After breaking free from the ice,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nidoking instantly collapsed to the ground, unconscious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Articuno defeated Nidoking,

sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Articuno, Ice Beam!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yu ordered immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Articuno soared in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From its small beak, a winding ice-blue beam instantly erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This beam struck directly at the incoming water column.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Consequently, Swampert's Hydro Pump move halted

ceased its move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it darted aside to evade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whoosh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ice Beam instantly struck the spot where Swampert had just been
