Chapter 677: Tier 3
"What is happening?"
When the dust, smoke, and debris cleared from the explosion, everyone could see that both of the pre-domain moves had disappeared and inside the middle of the explosion, there was a red glowing light. When it became even more clear, everyone could see that it was Charizard who was inside this glowing light.

Arceus must be on the side of Charizard today. Not only it was alive but it was also ranking up to tier 3 king rank. Axel had a happy smile on his face.
Since it was ranking up, no one dared to disturb it. Everyone was watching the spectacle. Axel could see that Salamence's stamina was all-time low now. It was also injured from the fight. Seeing that the battle was not over, it used 'Dragon dance' and 'Swords dance' to improve its attack and speed and also used 'Iron defense' to improve its defense.
The process took around 5 minutes and..
ROOOOARR
It was now ready for round two.
Since it had ranked up, its wounds were healed completely. Its broken hand had also mended and its stamina was at its peak. It could also use 'Transform' if it wanted to and it was going to use to show this piece of shit who it had messed up with but Axel said it to calm down.
'Transform' was like another lifeline for Charizard and Axel. It was no use to use it right now in front of a Pokemon who is going to be defeated soon.
Charizard looked at Salamence and said, "Surrender and I will leave you alive. Just thank my father because he is too soft."
"Never. I am a Salamence!!! I never surrender.", said Salamence with pride. It also knew that it was going to lose this battle but its pride didn't let it surrender.
It had multiple cuts on its body and its face was filled with blood. It was not in a good shape.
"Then don't blame me if I kill you.", said Charizard and roared.
The surrounding was filled with raging flames again. It had used 'Blaze' again to power itself up.
Its wings were now covered in white and blue light as it flew towards Salamence with blinding speed. Salamence was also ready with its 'Dragon claw'
Both of them clashed but Salamence was the one that lost for obvious reasons. 'Flame wings' had greatly leveled up and it was very powerful.
Charizard then used 'Dragon rush' and tackled Salamence again as it flew and crashed to the ground. It didn't wake up after that.
ROOOOARRR
Charizard looked into the sky and gave a huge roar spewing flames to announce its victory. If it had not ranked up, it would have lost this battle but in the end, it completely dominated the battle.
The faces of Salamence that were looking from the stadium were very dark. Some of them could not even believe that Flakor had lost this battle. Some of them were so angry that it was clearly visible in their faces.
These stupid humans had come to their turf and then they were defeating their members in the battle. Obviously, they would not sit here lying down. But deep inside their heart, they knew that this human had a way of training his Pokemons. If every human was like that then they were really doomed.
"Axel has won again and this is the last battle.", said the announcer. Even the voice of the announcer was down. Flakor had lost only due to luck.
If Charizard had not ranked up in the middle of the battle, it would have won. However, being a proud dragoon type Pokemon, they would not use this excuse to make themselves feel better.
Axel then took the next ball and called out his final Pokemon.
When the final Pokemon came out, all of the tribe members were surprised by it. It was Shelgon.
This was their original plan. They planned to have one on one battle and Axel would use Shelgon. If Axel's Shelgon would beat their Shelgon then they would not feel any anger towards them because they were of the same species.
However, the plan changed when one Pokemon battle turned into three.
"Who wants to battle the final Pokemon?", asked the announcer and multiple Shelgons raised a roar to say that they were ready for this.
The atmosphere had changed a bit and they were not as angry as before. As per them, even if they lose this battle, it would not matter much as their pride would not insulted cause they lost to their own species.
The announcer selected one of the Shelgon for the battle. It came rushing down towards the stadium for the battle. Charizard was told to take out all the fire from the stadium as a common-rank Pokemon could not be able to handle that level of fire.
Just to be safe, Axel looked at this Shelgon's status page.

[For this battle, the enemy Shelgon would be called Shelgon1]
Shelgon1 was weaker than Shelgon in every aspect. This health was a bit lower than Shelgon's, its stats were not so high while Shelgon's stats were already maximized to S rank.
Regarding the moves, it lacked the variety but most of its moves were similar to Shelgon.
###
The leader of the tribe looked at Shelgon and said, "This Shelgon is going to evolve very soon. I just could not believe that it had not evolved till now.
Our tribe member is going to lose this battle."
Axel and other humans may not be able to see it but when a Shelgon is close to its final evolution, its ridges become a bit reddish in color. The change in color is so minute that normal people may not be even able to recognize it. But the leader of the Salamence tribe obviously could.
"Yes, leader. I just could not believe that Flakor lost that battle. If that Charizard had not ranked up then.."
"Drik, it is stupid to think of such things. Evolving during the battle is also its strength. If it had not worked hard, it would not be able to rank up.
Remember, you are a dragon."
###
"Start the battle"
"Shelgon, use 'Dragon dance' and then use 'Headbutt'"
Both of them used 'Dragon dance'. Shelgon1 first used 'Dragon pulse' which did hit Shelgon but it was also able to connect with 'Headbutt'.
It also used 'Dragon head' to defend against that attack, so it did not suffer any major injuries right now. This was the battle of common rank Pokemon, so it would not be as fast and existing as the previous battle.
Both of them fought with all that they had got. Everyone could see that Shelgon1 was losing this battle. Shelgon also used 'Sunny day' and then used 'Flamethrower'. Shelgon1 replied with its own 'Flamethrower'.
Shelgon then used the move 'Flare Blitz' and Shelgon1 used the move 'Iron head' to tackle the attack. There was no proper mastery of executing the moves among both of them. This could be understood as both of them were only common rank Pokemons and they didn't have the time to master their craft.
Shelgon could only evolve to Salamence when they had utilized all of their stamina and power. So, Axel was trying to make it as tired as possible.
One of the conditions for its rank up was the mastery of 'Overcoat'. It was able to train it properly as Shelgon1 started to use the move 'Twister' continuously.
Since it was using the move continuously, they added up and it became like a tornado, like a part weather move. Due to this, Shelgon was able to passively train on its move 'Overcoat' as this hidden ability let it protect itself from weather effects.
Finally, Shelgon1 had it and it used the move 'Thrash'. For a dragon-type Pokemon, 'Outrage' was more suitable than 'Thrash' but since they were not even fully evolved, it would be almost impossible to use this move as it required a huge amount of stamina.
Shelgon used the move 'Wish' to recover some of its health. Even though Shelgon1 was vastly weaker than Shelgon, it was still difficult to win this battle. Shelgon was a defensive Pokemon. It was not called 'Endurance Pokemon' for nothing. Its shell was like the toughest bones that were very hard to inflict any damage,
Shelgon then used its own 'Thrash' to counter the effects. 'Thrash' had leveled up to 45 and now it was more powerful than before.
It could also be used 3 times before being confused.
BANG!! BANG!!!
Both of them clashed with their 'Thrash'. Everyone could see that Shelgon was coming out of the top. They had been battling for more than 10 minutes and Axel felt that both of them were tired now.
After using 'Trash', both of them had to rest for some time as both of them were confused. Then Shelgon charged with 'Dragon claw'. Shelgon1 was still confused, so it could not do anything.
BANG!!!
The power of that attack was high and Shelgon1 crashed to the ground once again. Then something happened.
---
Ding!
Shelgon's dragon rush has leveled up to 40. The speed of the attack has increased and now there is a 40% chance that the target of the same rank would flinch.
Ding!
Shelgon has mastered its hidden ability 'Overcoat'. The special defense of the user has increased.
Ding!
Shelgon has fulfilled all the conditions for evolution.
Ding!
Shelgon is now evolving...
---
It was quite a scene. Axel had never seen the evolution to Salamence. First of all, all the ridges started to peel off like it was the outer layer of orange. When these ridges came off, there was another pair of ridges that were hidden in those ridges.
These ridges started to change their shape and Shelgon started to glow in blue and white light. The shape of the glow started to change including the shape of Shelgon. It started to grow wings and its whole body started to change.
After around 3-4 minutes, the process of evolution was finally completed.
ROOOOOARRR
The glow disappeared and it gave a huge roar to announce its presence to the world. It had finally evolved for so much hardship.
Axel wanted to see its new stats but before that, Salamence fired up a powerful dragon pulse towards Shelgon as it flew to the ground and crashed with a loud thud.
BANG!!!
It didn't dare to wake up after that. The increase in its power was very clear. Axel felt that it was somehow more powerful than other normal Salamence who had recently evolved. Of course, it would be more powerful as all of its stats were in S rank before evolution but Axel was getting this weird feeling that something was different about his Salamence
