Chapter 47 - Pokemon Master Of Tactics: 47
Alex saw Ursaring take hardly any harm and said sternly, "Ok. Scyther, Golbat, In this fight, we would have to give everything to win. So listen to me carefully. Scyther, you use Fury Cutter and go into close combat with Ursaring. Aim at his head. Golbat, you use Wing Attack on his right knee. Attack simultaneously with Scyther."
After saying that, he whispered to Ralts and said, "Ralts, use Disable as soon as Ursaring uses Slash."
Alex developed this tactic for such a difficult opponent. Scyther fights Ursaring in close combat. So the Ursaring can hardly avoid attacks from both sides, and because Scyther aims at his head, Ursaring will automatically protect his head. With this, Ursaring's right knee will suffer serious damage.
Of course, Alex doesn't think that with only this, they can defeat Ursaring. It is for limiting Ursaring's mobility. In order to defeat him, restricting his mobility is phase 1 of his plan.
Scyther and Golbat understood Alex accurately and attacked Ursaring at the same time. Scyther attacked from the front and Golbat from the side.
Ursaring, who had suffered damage after a long time, got mad and used Slash on the incoming Scyther.
Scyther was using Fury Cutter and collided with Ursaring's Slash. Ursaring's Slash was a good deal stronger than Scyther's attack, and it sent Scyther flying. Scyther flew back 3 meters and had a minor injury on his right arm(scythe).
Shortly after Ursaring's attack, Ursaring's right knee was hit by Golbat's wing attack. Golbat did not miss this opportunity to attack.
Even though Golbat had hit it unprotected, Ursaring's right knee was only slightly injured. That shows what a high amount of Defence this Ursaring has.
Ralts immediately used Disable, and Ursaring suddenly felt like a weak force was preventing him from using his strongest move.
Ursaring suppressed this feeling in a second and again used Slash against Golbat, who wanted to fly away.
Alex was surprised that Ursaring can suppress Ralts's Disable. Disable has 100% accuracy. But after thinking about it, he had to say that it made sense.
This is the real world and not a game. Ursaring is more than three times the level as Ralts, and his move is on the expert rank. Of course, Ralts cannot suppress Ursaring.
Golbat tried to dodge Ursaring's attack but wasn't fast enough to outrun his attack range.
One second before Golbat was about to be hit, Scyther came in front of Golbat and used Fury Cutter to protect Golbat.
Alex saw this and became happy. When they are serious, they're a great team.
Scyther's attack got stronger than before but it still wasn't enough to withstand the whole attack and was sent back flighting. After that hit, Scyther's two arms were bleeding profusely.
Golbat used the time when Ursaring could not defend himself and attacked Ursaring's right knee again. Ursaring's right knee had another minor injury after this attack.
Ursaring realized what the two Pokemon were trying to do and tried to protect his knee in this fight. But Golbat and Scyther wouldn't let that happen. As soon as Ursaring wants to protect his knee, he was attacked by Scyther, who would aim his head.
After 3 minutes of intense fighting, Golbat and Scyther, who are badly injured and a Ursaring that can no longer move his right knee, were on the field. Golbat and Scyther have sustained a great deal of harm to damage Ursaring's mobility. Alex was sure that Golbat and Scyther only have around 20-30 Hp% left. He is certain that after two more hits, they would be defeated by Ursaring.
Alex said sincerely, "Good job, Scyther, Golbat. Now step two. Golbat, use Toxic on this Ursaring quickly. Scyther, you use Focus Energy and Agility, but you keep your distance from Ursaring and Do not attack him under any circumstances."
Alex's next step is very dangerous. Ursaring's Abilities is Guts. As soon as he is poisoned by Golbat, his attack becomes stronger. That was the main reason why Alex wanted to restrict Ursaring's mobility. And why he told Golbat to use Wing attack and not Sludge Bomb, even though it is his strongest move. Sludge Bomb has the probability of poisoning the opponent. But as long as Ursaring can't hit him and his Pokemon, he doesn't have to worry about Ursaring reinforcing attacks.
Golbat used Toxic on the Ursaring, which can barely move and of course, Golbat hit Ursaring with Toxic.
Ursaring noticed what these two Pokemon were up to and shouted angrily "You two cowards! Why don't you fight me fair and clean?"
Golbat looked arrogantly at Ursaring and said "Why should I fight an idiot fairly? Just because you can't fight any other way doesn't mean that we must fight you in the same way. We don't need to lower our IQ for you."
Scyther said coldly, "The fight wasn't fair? As long as I was on the same level as you, I would have easily beaten you. Don't tell me about fairness."
Alex didn't know what this Ursaring was saying, but he doesn't really care what a loser said.
Ursaring became desperate that he could no longer harm Golbat and Scyther and used the rest.
Alex knew that Ursaring would use this move and that's why he told Scyther to use Agility and Focus Energy when Ursaring was poisoned.
It was not smart of Ursaring to use the rest because he cannot defend himself for 2 to 3 minutes.
As long as the Move Rest Expert rank reaches it, it can be done within 1.5-2 minutes. But Alex thinks that even 1 minute is enough for Scyther and Golbat to defeat Ursaring.
Especially Scyther with Focus Energy and Fury Cutter will do serious harm to Ursaring.
After Ursaring had used rest, all of his injuries healed him in a second. And even his poisoned state was healed. After his injuries healed, Ursaring fell asleep.
Now, although he is no more poisoned, that doesn't mean he can't get poisoned again. And now Golbat can use Sludge Bomb without any fear. So not only Ursaring was poisoned, again, But the attacks on him became even more intense. Fury Cutter's power keeps on increasing. it can get 4 times the original attack power.
Scyther and Golbat cleared the asleep Ursaring in 92 seconds. An unconscious Ursaring lay on the floor. It had many injuries and was bleeding profusely.
Alex was surprised that Ursaring had survived so many attacks. Especially since the Attack Power (DPS) of Scyther is ridiculously strong.
He healed Golbat and Ursaring with two Super Potions and used an antidote for Ursaring. Then he caught Ursaring with a Pokeball. Scyther had roost and didn't need Alex to heal him.
Alex knew that Pokeballs can only restrict Pokemon before the elite rank(lv40). Of course, you can also catch an elite Pokemon in a Pokeball, but then this Pokemon can always get out of the Pokeball if it wants.
Elite trainers often used pokeballs for their trusty pokemon.
