Chapter 566 - To The Finals (1/2)

The battle continues as Luxray starts to pressure Trevenant with his agileness, Trevenant is a big heavy pokemon, its attacks are slow and very predictable to a pokemon like Luxray who is very stealthy and nimble and he packs a power punch in every attack he lands.

Brian is being careful with Destiny Bond as well.

If he uses it, he has to use it at the right moment where the opponent is guaranteed to land the finishing blow on Trevenant.

Brian's Trevenant continued to struggle against the relentless attack of Luxray and it was in no position to win this battle.

Julian ”Let's end this, Thunder Fang”

Luxray roared as his fangs started to glow yellow, spars flew out from it and it became longer, Luxray charged at Trevenant with full speed ready to bare his fangs in it, as Luxray got close to Trevenant Brian saw his chance and called out his move.

Brian ”Destiny Bond”

Trevenant with its last bit of energy used Destiny Bond but Julian had expected this.

Julian ”Jump away”

Luxray didn't stop his run, instead, he ran straight towards Trevenant and as he was about to make contact he jumped and made contact with Trevenant with his feet and did a flip and landed on the ground once again.

Trevenant fell on the ground but didn't get knocked out, Luxray just pushed it to the ground.

Julian ”Return”

Julian called back Luxray and sent out Togekiss once again, by now Trevenant has no strength to fight back, even though it still has two more Destiny Bonds in its arsenal, it doesn't have enough energy to use it.

Julian ”Mystical Fire”

Togekiss blasts a powerful Mystical Fire and knocks out Trevenant.

Julian ”That was impressive, making me switch multiple pokemons to take down one, none have been able to put me in such a state, only you, you should feel accomplished”

Julian said and chuckled.

Brian was really pissed when he heard this from Julian.

Brian 'Why should I feel accomplished, you just toyed with my Trevenant the whole battle'

Brian thought and called his Trevenant back to its Pokeball, now he has only two pokemon in his team while Julian still has five healthy ones ready to fight every battle they get put in.

Brian ”I am not giving up, Cofagrigus you are up next”

Brian sends out his fifth pokemon, a Cofagrigus.

Julian once again comes across a pokemon he has never seen in real life, he knows that there pokemon are known to swallow people whole and wrap them with clothes and turn them into mummies.

There have also been some cases of death due to Cofagrigus as they didn't let go of the people and pokemon they swallowed up, Julian also knows that these are Defensive pokemons, it has good Special Defense and very high Physical Defense.

Julian decided to continue with Togekiss as she has better Special Attack than Attack.

The battle continues and Brian is able to hold up much better this time, with its powerful Defense but Togekiss attacks are showing signs, Cofagrigus is slowing down and its movements are weak.

After some back and forth Togekiss wins after hitting Cofagrigus with one powerful Mystical Fire.

With this Brian is left with only one pokemon while Julian's Togekiss and Rampardos are tired.

This battle took out a lot from Togekiss, she is nearly exhausted by using multiple moves after moves to just get through Cofagrigus's defense, thanks to her being a flying type she maintained a safe distance from Cofagrigus which couldn't land a powerful hit on Togekiss due to its limitation in its movement.

Now that Brian is on his last pokemon everyone has given up on him winning the battle, it is clear as a day, Brian is no match for Julian.

His win streak has finally come to an end, even though Julian knew that Brian is a lot better than other trainers in this league, he still felt no challenge from Brian.

Julian felt that Ash could give him a better battle than Brian as Ash is very unpredictable when he is in a tough spot.

Brian sends out his last pokemon, an Aegislash, a pokemon that can change its attack and defense powers during the battle.
