Chapter 717 - 716: I Still Prefer to Be the Hunter
Cain stood on his Flygon, flying ahead while Altaria closely followed, launching constant attacks to harass Xenon.
At this moment, the differences between a quasi-Elite level wild Pokémon and one trained by an experienced trainer became evident.
On Mythical Island, this Altaria could have easily defeated a quasi-Elite level Pidgeot in just a few moves. Even when facing a Crobat of the same level, it wouldn’t have had too much trouble.
However, now it was fighting against Xenon’s Pidgeot and Crobat, and its attacks failed to make a significant impact.
Additionally, Xenon’s team included an Exeggutor, a Psychic-type Pokémon with overwhelming power at level 58. It continuously helped its teammates harass Altaria with precise attacks, taking every opportunity to cause disruptions. If their strategies worked correctly, they could even deal considerable damage to Altaria.
Meanwhile, on the ocean surface, the battle was also intense. Every time Cain’s Flygon descended slightly in altitude, Xenon’s Gyarados took advantage of the opportunity to launch attacks.
A single direct hit from Gyarados would be enough to incapacitate Flygon and prevent it from continuing to fly.
Despite the pressure, Cain found some relief in seeing how his Flygon handled the situation. Over time, it had developed greater confidence and was no longer so easily intimidated, even against multiple quasi-Elite level Pokémon.
This was progress.
However, Cain knew this situation couldn’t drag on indefinitely.
