Faced with this situation, in the end, they still had to rely on Kevin from Team Aqua.
Water-type Pokémon trainer.
"Poliwag! Crawdill! Sharpedo! Use Surf around us!" Kevin commanded his Pokémon.
Hearing their trainer's command, the three Pokémon immediately sprang into action.
Dense water-type energy swirled beneath their feet.
Seeing their captain's actions, the three members of Team Aqua also immediately had their Pokémon use water-type moves.
The goal was simple: to increase the humidity of the sand through the interference of water, preventing it from flying up.
The sand that passed through their cheeks left marks on their faces.
Their eyes were unable to open for a short time.
But after the influx of Surf and the injection of water-type moves, the sandstorm did slow down.
Seeing the effect, the members of Team Aqua immediately showed joy.
As long as the sandstorm disappeared, they wouldn't be so passive.
But the truth was that there wasn't much difference between having a sandstorm and not having one.
Against them, Tyranitar's Sandstorm's main purpose was to eliminate the weaker Pokémon.
Don't waste too much time.
Even if the Team Aqua members frantically spewed water, Tyranitar could still control the dry sand to stun the weaker Pokémon.
If Aoki felt it necessary, the soil had a continuous supply of sand, produced much faster than they could wet it .
However, the remaining Pokémon couldn't be dealt with simply by the Sandstorm, and it would be too time-consuming.
Blaziken and Drapion would also be affected by the dense sandstorm.
It was better to confront them head-on.
So, just when the opponents thought it was working, Aoki actually told Tyranitar to stop absorbing sand.
That was enough; it had become the main battlefield.
The Sandstorm gradually subsided.
Just when the two captains thought they could finally show off their skills, Tyranitar and Aggron, two behemoths, were already standing in front of them.
Ever seen fists the size of sandbags?
Tyranitar trained with Apexis for a while, and while it didn't quite turn every joint in its body into a weapon like Apexis,
it could still train one of its most usable limbs into a weapon .
For example, its tail.
Tyranitar has now discovered that its strongest part is its tail.
A swift, horizontal swipe of its Water Tail is enough to kill or seriously injure any Pokémon hit.
Aggron is even more terrifying.
Since mastering the Body Lightweight move, it's no longer the tanky but slow-moving creature it once was.
Have you ever seen a bull encased in metal armor, charging around like a madman?
Aggron utilizes its hard head to maximize the power of its Headbutt.
No matter what Pokémon it is, no one can withstand a headbutt from Aggron. As for Blaziken, its fighting style differs from Tyranitar's and Aggron's direct confrontational approach.
Blaziken's graceful movements and agile figure made it almost impossible for opponents to track its movements, and its speed increased as the battle progressed. Often, only Blaziken could attack its opponent, while the opponent was helpless against it.
The problem was, not everyone could withstand Blaziken's flames.
Team Magma's Camerupt, confident in its Fire-type Pokémon and its superior defense, believed it could withstand Blaziken's flames head-on.
However, Blaziken taught it a lesson. It showed the difference between flames. Using the Tai Chi principles taught by Aoki—the concept of short-range power, using minimal force to deflect a great weight—a single Fire Punch not only sent the overconfident Camerupt flying, sliding three or four meters, but also left a perfect fist mark on one of Camerupt's humps.
A dark, charred fist mark.
Camerupt lay on the ground in pain, unable to stand up after three attempts. It felt its entire hump was ruined. Swampert.
His current fighting style is very simple: Earth Smash!
He has successfully integrated the power of the arm hammer with the power of the earth into every attack.
If he gets carried away, he can replace the earth power with earthquake.
Not only is it more powerful, but it also has a certain area of effect.
However, the space here is limited, and using Earthquake could easily cause collateral damage, so he doesn't use it often.
Finally, Drapion felt he couldn't quite join their battle.
It wasn't because Drapion was weak, but because it was too strong. It looked down on those opponents being held by Tyranitar and tossed around like toys.
Too weak!
They didn't even have the power to deal with Tyranitar and his four Pokémon, let alone him.
So, after burrowing into the sand and instantly defeating a Team Magma member's Pokémon with a simple triple attack, Drapion gave up the battle.
It pursed its lips and went to Aoki's side.
There was no way around it; there were too many opponents for too few opportunities.
Aoki understood Drapion's thoughts. He was currently on the verge of breaking through to the Elite Four level and needed strong opponents to hone his skills, not these "chickens and dogs." He gently patted Drapion's arm, signaling him to calm down.
This war against Team Magma and Team Aqua had only just begun; there would be opportunities for him to fight eventually.
Team Magma's McCree and Team Ocean's Kevin stared at the imposing Tyranitar and his companions, their faces ashen.
Their Pokémon were utterly helpless against Aoki's Pokémon; it was a one-sided massacre.
Tyranitar and Aggron could easily beat their Pokémon senseless with a single punch, yet their attacks on Aggron and Tyranitar were completely ineffective. Their
defense and attack power were on completely different levels.
As for Blaziken, it was even worse; it wasn't touched once, its Pokémon were simply taking the beating.
The worst off was Camerupt; it had only slightly provoked Blaziken and was immediately targeted.
Now, Camerupt's two volcano-like humps were... swollen beyond recognition.
Do you know what it feels like to have two huge, blackened, burnt-out buns on its head? Camerupt was utterly devastated. Meanwhile, Blaziken was still gloating over its masterpiece.
The only thing that could potentially be harmed was the Swampert, swinging wildly like a madman.
Yes, it could indeed cause damage, and the damage was visible.
But the cost of harming the Swampert was too high.
This Swampert had somehow gotten into trouble; its fist, enveloped in yellow energy, swung wildly, blasting away any Pokémon that touched it.
There were now marks on the tunnel walls, made by the Swampert.
Four Pokémon.
Just four Pokémon had wiped out nearly fifty of them.
Mom, I miss home...
