Chapter 690 - 689: Total Victory
Under Cain’s command, Honchkrow disposed of the nuisance Weezing without paying attention to the moves it launched from behind. Honchkrow trusted Cain completely.
Ignoring Weezing’s moves, Honchkrow quickly concentrated its energy, enveloping itself in a blue aura resembling the flames of a divine bird. It calculated Pinsir’s trajectory and intercepted it before it could charge at Drapion.
Meanwhile, Weezing’s attacks were stopped by a psychic barrier that appeared out of nowhere. Not only that, but Slowking projected its psychic power as an invisible blade, cutting through Weezing’s move and striking it directly.
Poison-type Pokémon are especially vulnerable to Psychic-type moves, and the effect was devastating!
Even with its psychic power spread thin to manage two Pokémon, Slowking could still dominate the battle. This was the strength Slowking could unleash upon reaching the quasi-elite level.
Hypno tried to restrain Slowking with its own psychic power, but it was in a tough spot as Cain’s fastest Pokémon, Weavile and Gengar, had already reached the rear lines.
Weavile, with a pair of metallic claws infused with Ice-type energy, unleashed a blizzard toward the rear and then directly attacked Victreebel.
Given Victreebel’s large size, it found it hard to keep up with Weavile’s agile movements. The vines it extended from its body were easily slashed apart by Weavile’s sharp claws.
Weavile’s goal was clear: to disrupt the roots Victreebel used to regenerate. Once that advantage was gone, defeat would be inevitable.
