He knows Pokémon better than me

The sea lion has no feet and has difficulty moving on land.

Seeing the armored warrior's claws transformed into dark purple energy spikes and rushing towards him, Shui Lian quickly responded:

"Use Freezing Wind!!"

The Western Lion Sea Ren opened his mouth and spit out a large cloud of icy mist that covered the face of the armored warrior, freezing his eyes in an attempt to blur his vision.

"Hmph, Bug Pokémon don't just rely on vision to catch prey."

Bug Premonition!

Although this characteristic effect is similar to fierce fire and fierce water, when HP is less than 1/3, it will increase the power of insect-attribute moves.

But this premonition also gives the Bug Pokémon a special sensory ability.

Of course, his armored warrior does not have this characteristic, but he also possesses this power of premonition.

Even though his eyes were frozen by the icy mist, the armored warrior still accurately locked onto his target and swung out the spear in his hand!

Whoosh!!

The Hell Spike pierced the throat of the Sea Lion, knocking the latter into the air.

It was as if the throat was torn apart, and the horrifying scene made the entire audience shudder.

The boss of the Skeleton Team is really a ruthless guy!

By the time the Sea Lion had distanced itself in embarrassment, a clear red mark had appeared on its white neck.

"Hai cough cough!"

The originally melodious voice turned into a hoarse cough when he tried to speak again.

All sound-based moves are no longer usable!

The sudden change also made Shui Lian lose her composure.

Guzma smiled cruelly and suddenly said:

"Hey, grab it!"

The armored warrior quickly approached the sea lion and suddenly stretched out his sharp claws. This time he did not attack the latter directly, but instead strangely grabbed the sea lion's slender fish tail.

Then he suddenly mentioned it!

In full view of everyone, the Sea Lion was hung upside down in the air, looking extremely shameful.

As a female Pokémon, Hirano also panicked at the first moment and struggled and attacked continuously.

It was like a big live fish being picked up and prepared for cooking.

Shui Lian commanded anxiously:

"Hyderabad, use the power of the moon quickly!"

However, before the pink ball of light could condense into shape, the armored warrior shook his arms vigorously, and the violent shaking of his body instantly interrupted the release of the Western Lion Sea Ren's moves.

"Now, poison attack!!"

Then the armored warrior's other free claw condensed a poisonous purple light and stabbed forward again, hitting the Western Lion Sea Ren hard in the chest.

"Ugh, cough, cough.!"

The Sea Lion was knocked away and couldn't even moan. When he spoke, it was just a continuous hoarse cough.

Purple bubbles appeared at the tip of his nose, indicating that he was in a poisoned state.

"Damn it, I'm no match for you at all!"

Shui Lian felt ashamed and angry. The fighting style of this guy in front of her was simply humiliating!

"This is the last chance, let's fight!"

Shui Lian gritted her teeth, crossed her arms, and prepared to use the Z-moves that were the result of her training to decide the outcome.

He moved his palms in waves-like motions, channeling all of his Z-move energy into the Sea Lion's body.

"Use, Poseidon's Majestic Symphony!!!"

The lion sea bream understood, stood up, opened its hands and sang like a singer -

Although this exclusive Z move comes from the upgrade of Bubble Aria, Aria is a sound-type move and has been blocked by Hell Stab.

But Poseidon's Majestic Symphony is not a sound-based move. Even though his throat was damaged, the faint and melodious symphony music still came out of Poseidon's mouth, and a huge bubble quickly formed on his head.

"Exclusive Z-Move? Humph."

Guzma snorted coldly, his expression disdainful, but his actions were not too disrespectful.

At this moment, the opponent has little physical strength, plus the natural disadvantage of level, and the attribute is not restrained.

"Armored warrior, use the water flow to block it!!"

The next moment, the armored warrior suddenly pulled out a sharp water blade and rushed straight into the huge bubble.

The water flow broke through and he raised his knife and chopped it down heavily!

Whoosh!!

The huge bubble was suddenly split in half by the water blade, and the water flowed down like two waterfalls.

This scene also made Shui Lian and Xi Shi Hai Ren stunned on the spot.

Their exclusive Z moves were just broken by an ordinary move?

"End the battle, the water bursts!!"

The armored warrior hadn't even finished his move yet as he rushed forward with the water blade in his hand, this time slashing at Xishi Hairen's face without any thought of showing any mercy.

Whoosh!!

The water blade exploded, and Xishi Hairen was struck back again and fell heavily in front of Shuilian.

"Woo"

The battered Sea Lion finally stopped coughing this time, but it only had the strength to whine on the ground.

The island king, Hala, quickly came forward to check, then raised his arm.

"The winner has been decided! The Sea Lion lost the ability to fight in the second round, and Guzma will advance!"

What an overwhelming difference in strength.

When Hala looked back at Guzma, his expression was complicated. He did not give the Z bracelet to Guzma because he saw the violent tendencies in him.

But it seems that because of his behavior, Guzma's violent tendencies have deepened?

Guzma showed no surprise at the outcome of the battle, and as he took back the armored warrior as a matter of course, he also noticed Hara's gaze.

"Humph, old man!"

He snorted coldly, and a surge of inexplicable anger rose in his heart.

Seeing that the winner had been decided, he was too lazy to say anything more and swaggered off with his hands in his pockets.

It’s only the top 16, and his goal is still higher!

On the other side, Shui Lian knelt beside Xishi Hai Ren, quickly applied medicine to the latter's throat, and sprayed some antidote into his mouth. Only then did Xishi Hai Ren's complexion improve a lot.

These simple emergency treatments are what we learned in the full moon medical course.

Although most of the time, Rotom was the substitute teacher.

“Oh, I lost.”

Shui Lian took back the Sea Lion, looking a little lonely.

She originally wanted to give it a big fight, but ended up falling in the round of 16. Her strength was indeed far from enough, and she was no match for the armored warrior.

But soon, the expression on Shui Lian's face became firm.

She wants to become the most powerful water-attribute trainer in the Alola region like her senior Misty.

Then the armored warrior with water attribute is the opponent she must defeat!

"It seems that the fighting spirit has not been extinguished."

Watching from afar, Xiaozhi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction when he saw the fighting spirit rekindled on Shuilian's face.

However, the strength of the Skeleton Team leader seems to have improved a lot. At least, he is much stronger than at the Carlos League Conference.

He can even break the exclusive Z-Move of the Sea Lion with his bare hands! ?

He is looking forward to fighting Guzma next! (End of this chapter)
