Chapter 676: Flakor 1
Chapter 676: Flakor 1
Wind could diminish the power of fire and also exponentially increase the power of fire. It would depend on how it was used. Since Charizard had greater mastery over fire than Salamence over its wind and flying type, it was able to do it.
Salamence was now dodging the fire as it was getting ready for another attack. It first used 'Iron defense' to increase the defense of itself then charged while using 'Outrage'.
The power of this 'Outrage' was unusually high. It looked like it had trained on this move for a long time.
Axel knew that Charizard might not be able to defend against it. So, he said,
"Use 'Flame armor'"
A very solid flame, almost like magma started to cover its body fully. This was 'Flame armor' and the power of this move was heightened due to 'Sunny day'.
BANG!!
This time Salamence was able to hit Charizard with 'Outrage'. It moved back a few meters as Salamence became ready to charge again. As it was charging, Axel shouted,
"Use 'Substitute' and then use 'Dragon energy'"
In the meantime, it was able to use 'Substitute' and that substitute was able to take the hit. The substitute disappeared after taking the hit and now Charizard used 'Dragon energy' as Salamence was ready for its third charge.
'Dragon energy' had leveled up and after training this move for a long time, Charizard had become accustomed to it. Since it had leveled up, while using this move, the life energy of Charizard would increase and after executing the move, the life energy would decrease to the previous level. This move did damage based on life energy.
Axel didn't want it to use 'Substitute' so fast. While using 'Substitute', its stats would be halved by 50% and when the substitute disappears, 15% of its stats could not be recovered for some time. Since it was a tier 2 king-rank Pokemon, 15% of its stats were quite significant.
Charizard was already angry as it had to fight strategically and be away from the enemy as it also was proficient in physical attacks. After being hit it was angry and since Axel said it to charge, it would happily do so.
Both of them charged and clashed.
BANG!
BANG!!
The clash created a big ringing sound as they crashed in the opposite direction.
'Dragon energy' was a very powerful move and this time Charizard won the clash but it was also injured now. Salamence had also used 'Iron defense' to increase its defense.
The smoke and ashes from the ongoing fire pillars were accumulating. Charizard had used a part of those ashes to make an ash armor and it covered its already used 'Flame armor'.
The ashes and smoke were also affecting Salamence but it was not tired or out of stamina right now. It would take some time to take effect.
"Charles, now use 'Dragon claw'", said Axel.
Both of its claws were elongated with dragon-type energy as it rushed towards Salamence. Salamence also charged its 'Dragon claw' on one hand and went for the clash.
Axel was surprised by seeing this. 'Outrage' would confuse the Pokemon after using it and Salamence had used it 3 times already. Normally a Pokemon could only use it 2 times. Then he realized that he had not observed it very well.
'Of course, it is due to its passive 'Inner focus'.', he thought.
'Inner focus' would let it not get confused and this was a perfect passive move for it due to it having a huge amount of dragon-type energy from its other passive move 'White', it was able to still fight normally.
Both of them fought like this for 5-6 minutes. Axel had told Charizard to focus on dragon-type moves as Salamence was weak to dragon-type attacks. However, it also used moves like 'Flame wings', 'Thunder punch', and 'Iron tail'.
'Smoke manipulation' and 'Ash manipulation' were now taking effect on Salamence as it realized that it was getting tired much faster than it had anticipated.
The attack power of Charizard was higher than Salamence. Axel had noticed it and with it using dragon-type moves, it was more effective on Salamence.
But if one were to look at both of their condition, Charizard was getting more injured than Salamence. This was due to its defense. Even though Charizard had many defensive moves like 'Flame armor', 'Dragon scales', and 'Ash manipulation', its defensive stat was lower than Salamence as Salamence being a dragon-type Pokemon had a high defense.
After fighting against Charizard for some time, it said, "I must say that you are a very strong Charizard. I have never met another Pokemon like you. But I think I must show you how powerful a dragon-type Pokemon really is."
It then looked at the sky and then gave a huge roar.
ROOOOARRR
Axel looked at the sky and saw multiple small rocks coming from the sky. The rocks were burning in flames and it was coming at a very high speed.
"Shit, it's 'Draco meteor'. Charles dodge it as much as you can. Use 'Flame wings' to counter it if you have to.", shouted Axel.
'Draco meteor' was a powerful move. Axel didn't know why only selected dragon-type Pokemons could learn it but this move should be avoided at all cost.
There were around 10 pieces of burning rocks that were coming to the ground from the sky. They covered a large area. Charizard was able to dodge 8 of them and countered 1 of them with 'Flame wings' but it was hit by the last one.
BOOM!!
BOOM!!!
BOOMMM!!
BOOOMMM!!!
Multiple explosions occurred as the ground was filled with dust, fire, and smoke. Nobody could see what had happened to Charizard but Axel knew that it was not over. His Charizard was not going down so easily.
In the midst of explosion, dust, smoke, and fire, a huge roar came.
ROOOOARRRR
Everyone could see a blue and orange flash as Charizard charged towards Salamence to hit it with a punch that had deep blue fire on it. The power of the punch was very high and Salamence flew and crashed to the ground.
Charizard then gave another huge roar and it looked as if the whole stadium was on fire now. Almost half of the stadium was now in deep red and slightly blue fire and Charizard looked menacing. It was bleeding all over its face, neck, and stomach but it looked extremely dangerous right now.
It had activated 'Blaze'.
When Charizard was hit by the attack, it used 'Counter' and then combined 'Focus punch' with 'Hellfire punch' and then struck on Salamence's right cheek.
Salamence knew that it was time to get serious and it also used 'Intimidate' to decrease the attack power of Charizard.
ROOOARR
But, Charizard also gave a huge roar which neglected the effect of 'Intimidate'. This was 'Dragon roar'.
Then it opened its mouth with great difficulty as blue colored flaming orb came out of it. The blue orb went to the sky and the blue aura covered a big area which included Salamence and Charizard.
It was 'Dragon domain'. Axel could tell that this Salamence had also trained on its domain move. The mastery of this pre-domain move was higher than what he had expected but Charizard had also trained on its domain move.
"Charles, it is time. Use 'Dragon king'"
For 2 seconds, it felt as if the whole world had stopped for Salamence. It felt that something very big and powerful thing was going to come outside. Charizard looked at its eyes and then gave a huge roar.
This was the biggest roar it had given till now. Even the ground was shaking like an earthquake had come out. Axel had already closed his ears with the help of aura, so his ears were safe.
At an area of 25 meters, the flames intensified and blue-colored dragon-type energy also came pouring in. As of right now, the flames were totally blue in color. The heat of the flames was very high.
Even the team who was seeing it from the waiting room had to use aura to protect themselves. This was 'Dragon king'. The pre-domain move of Charizard.
###
"Drik, this Charizard is something else. First was that 'Dragon dance'. It was completely different than normal and now this domain move. I could feel a concentrated amount of dragon-type energy and fire-type energy on it.", said the leader of Salamence.
"Yes, leader. I also didn't think that this human could train this Charizard to such a high level. But this Charizard cannot win against Flakor no matter what.", said Drik.
"Yes, it is such a shame that this kind of Pokemon isn't in our tribe.", sighed the leader.
###
'Dragon king' was the combination of 'Fire domain' and 'Dragon domain'. In the beginning, the power of this pre-domain move was not so high but after it leveled up multiple times along with 'Fire domain' and 'Dragon domain', its power rose quite high.
Salamence knew that it had to finish this battle right now. So, it was ready to use its ace. It closed its eyes as Charizard was firing a powerful 'Flamethrower'. Charizard had also activated 'Blaze' yet again, increasing the firepower to a new height.
The blue and dangerous flame beam was coming towards it but it didn't care about such a thing as Salamence was hit by the attack. However, by this time, it was able to use that move.
Suddenly, 9 more Salamence came and surrounded Charizard. This was the move 'Dragon mash'.
"Charles, use 'Dragon scales' and then use 'Flame armor' too", said Axel. The move was going to be over in 1 minute but 1 minute was a very big time during battle.
3 of the Salamence used 'Hurricane', 5 of them charged while using 'Dragon claw' while the remaining 2 used 'Hyper beam'.
While in 'Dragon king', all of its stats would be heightened. Charizard used 'Fire pillar' and then with the help of 'Flame control' and 'Dragon king', it manipulated the 'Fire pillar' to create a sea of flames that covered itself and a huge area.
A beam of flame was created with that fire manipulation as it clashed with 'Hyper beam'. It was a brutal clash.
Even though only 3 of them were able to hit Charizard, only 5 seconds had passed and it needed to hold it for 1 minute.
Charizard tried to fend off the attacks but it was getting injured even though it had already used all of its defensive moves. It had also used 'Roost' to improve its health but even that was not helping it.
It had injuries in multiple places and Axel could even see that one of its hands was broken. But unlike other normal Pokemons that would have given up or already fainted by 'Dragon mash', it was getting angrier and angrier.
During the last 5 seconds, every Salamence surrounded it and then used a full power 'Hyper beam'. Since it was surrounded by all of them, it could not dodge the attack.
Axel knew that they had lost the battle. He took out its ball and called it inside but for some reason, Charizard was refusing to come inside the ball.
"YOU IDIOT, come inside, RIGHT NOW", shouted Axel.
With its multiple injuries, Axel feared that it might die by this move. But Charizard refused to come inside the ball. In all this fight, he had forgotten the nature of Charizard. It was unyielding and it didn't like to bow down.
10 'Hyper beams' hit Charizard at the same time
BOOM!!!
