"But this Mane Rock Werewolf is very likely to be the Dusk Form Mane Rock Werewolf speculated by the Dr. Okido Brothers."
Although there was very little information they could research, Loz and the others had dug as deeply as possible into Fang Yuan's data.
For example, using the special Mane Rock Werewolves in Fang Yuan's data as a breakthrough, she managed to find the related papers published by Dr. Omu. Connecting the dots, Loz deduced that Fang Yuan must have some relationship with Dr. Omu.
As for the paper, Fang Yuan actually knew about it too. Dr. Omu, addicted to research, had been fascinated by the Super Ancient Special Rock Wolf when he first saw it. Fang Yuan had mentioned Green Flash a few times and told Dr. Omu that he was free to research it. As a result, Dr. Omu, along with his cousin from Alola, actually did research on the special evolution of the Mane Rock Werewolf and published a paper, which could be considered as patching up Fang Yuan's Rock Wolf.
"A new form of Pokemon, huh..." Danti's gaze became curious.
At this moment, below, Colored Bean was also seeing this kind of Mane Rock Werewolf for the first time. However, Colored Bean was not the type to trace everything back to its roots. Once the battle started, she immediately issued an attack command, planning to become familiar with the Mane Rock Werewolf's strength during combat.
"Wrestling Hawk Person! Body Slam!"
Colored Bean shouted her orders, and the next moment, the Wrestling Hawk Person, trained to the Species Limit and one of Colored Bean's strongest three Pokemon, leaped agilely and flew in the air with adept speed. This was a Fighting Move—if it hit, it would deal significant damage to the Mane Rock Werewolf.
"Return Fist." Fang Yuan spoke calmly. The instant the Wrestling Hawk Person came crashing down, the Mane Rock Werewolf's gaze flashed blue, its body immediately radiating with light, waiting for its opponent to attack.
Thanks to the Mane Rock Werewolf's Wave Guide, its perception was extremely strong. Therefore, the timing of Fang Yuan's command and the Mane Rock Werewolf's Moves left Colored Bean unable to react. However, the Wrestling Hawk Person was clearly well-trained by Colored Bean. Facing this situation, Colored Bean didn't panic, and the Pokemon reacted on its own.
"Chaa!!" Just in the nick of time, the falling Wrestling Hawk Person saw through the Mane Rock Werewolf's Move, utilized its excellent Flying Skills, and quickly made a sharp turn. Meanwhile, its momentum kept rising. As it turned around, a True Qi Bullet formed on its wings, intending to counterattack with it.
"True Qi..." However, before Colored Bean could finish speaking, her expression froze.
"Rushing Rock." Fang Yuan spoke first.
Boom!!
On the ground, the Mane Rock Werewolf, which had been maintaining its Return Fist state, instantly dispersed the Move and quickly switched to "Rushing Rock," its body's Rock sheen spreading, disregarding the True Qi Bullet, and with agile movements, it charged towards the Wrestling Hawk Person.
"Awoo!!!" The next second, along with a resolute Growl, the Mane Rock Werewolf that charged forward collided with the Wrestling Hawk Person, while the True Qi Bullet also smeared onto the Mane Rock Werewolf's body. The sky exploded with a "boom," sweeping up an explosion, and both Pokemon were blown away...
Fang Yuan adjusted the brim of his hat; he liked commanding the Mane Rock Werewolf in battle—it made him seem mighty. Instructions like "dodge quickly" would never be used with the Mane Rock Werewolf, for it was used to Gigantification battles. Even with its fast reaction speed, the Mane Rock Werewolf was too lazy to dodge in its normal state. If it could take a hit, it would—an embodiment of resilience, pain was the least of its concerns...
"You guys..." Colored Bean was taken aback by this reckless fighting style.
Indeed, Colored Bean rarely encountered such barbaric tactics. Rushing Rock VS True Qi Bullet, logically, the Mane Rock Werewolf should have suffered more damage, but regardless, Fang Yuan's team chose to trade blow for blow...
Olive, Loz, Danti, and the others narrowed their eyes, appearing somewhat surprised.
If it came to the strength of the Mane Rock Werewolf and Wrestling Hawk Person, they had figured out that they were about King Level.
With similar overall strength, what followed was a competition of their fundamental quality.
"Cha~~~"
"Aw!!"
The Mane Rock Werewolf and Wrestling Hawk Person, blown away, didn't lose consciousness. The Wrestling Hawk Person swiftly got up, dragging its painful body and glaring indignantly at the Mane Rock Werewolf, criticizing this mad dog for being utterly ungraceful.
Mane Rock Werewolf: (◞‸◟)Didn't you have breakfast?
Meanwhile, the Mane Rock Werewolf seemed entirely unharmed as it shook off the dust, also criticising, and to think you're a Fighting Type...!
"Wrestling Hawk Person, High-speed Movement!"
Seeing this, Colored Bean took a deep breath, realizing the Mane Rock Werewolf had thick skin and that clashing head-on... was definitely not a wise choice.
Instead, after High-speed Movement combined with Sword Dance, using the Flying-type advantage and nimble Flying Skills to strengthen oneself and then collide with the Mane Rock Werewolf seemed like a better plan!
Whoosh!!
As soon as Colored Bean spoke, the Wrestling Hawk Person transformed into a streak of white light, extremely fast. But, instead of attacking the Mane Rock Werewolf head-on, it started disrupting by circling around it, creating opportunities to empower itself.
In the whirl of white light, the Wrestling Hawk Person simultaneously Sword Danced, and from all directions, gusts of cutting energy harassed the Mane Rock Werewolf, disrupting its movements and creating chances for the Hawk Person to enhance its own power.
However, even though both were trained to their Species Limits, there was still a considerable gap in strength between the Wrestling Hawk Person and the Mane Rock Werewolf. At this moment, through the Eye of Waveguide, the Hawk Person's seemingly bewildering Flying Skills were crystal clear to the Mane Rock Werewolf—slow and cumbersome, and the flying poses were annoyingly obstructive. In that instant, the DNA within the Mane Rock Werewolf seemed to tremble.
