Chapter 217: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [217]
Machamp's fist sank deep into the swirling waters of Gyarados's Aqua Tail.
The water acted like a cushion, absorbing most of Machamp's punch's kinetic energy as ripples spread across the surface.
"Machamp's Mega Punch hit the water surrounding Gyarados's tail but failed to inflict any damage!" the commentator announced loudly.
Just as everyone—including Machamp—was focused on how its attack had been nullified...
Gyarados gave its tail a gentle flick. The water coiling around its tail suddenly surged, pulling Machamp's entire body as if it were being swallowed into the flow.
"What's happening...?! Dodge it, quick!"
Keiko realized something was wrong.
But at this moment, it was far too late to command Machamp to escape.
Machamp, now waist-deep in the water surrounding Gyarados's tail, struggled against the resistance. However, within the brief moment of its attempt to break free, Gyarados's tail, carrying an unstoppable force, slammed directly into Machamp's chest.
BOOM!
The impact was like a cannonball hitting its target or a golf club sending a ball flying. In an instant, Machamp vanished from its spot.
