"Dream Eater?", Axel's brows furrowed tightly. Dream Eater was a very special kind of move among psychic-type abilities, capable of dealing great damage to opponents in a sleeping state.
At the same time, it could restore the user, considered a skill with harsh trigger conditions but great power.
But right now, Gardevoir wasn't even asleep, and Munna still had the effect of Encore on it, how could it possibly use Dream Eater on Gardevoir?
"Can't figure it out?", Caitlin crossed her arms, eyes sly, looking proudly at Axel.
"Then let me tell you."
Axel cut off Caitlin's show-off act, "Villains die from talking too much."
Caitlin: "..."
'This guy's a devil, even a Chatot can't talk more than you!'
Caitlin was shocked to find that, compared to being roasted, she could actually accept Axel looking at her legs a bit more.
"Anyway, I'm going to say it," Caitlin glared hard at Axel and continued speaking.
'If you don't explain how you pulled a comeback at the critical moment, what's the point of being a trainer?'
"The pink smoke around Munna has always been filled with the dreams of many people and Pokémon. These dreams adhered to Gardevoir, so it was easy to draw out her dream."
"Even if she's in a conscious state."
"And this isn't even a move, it's just the biological ability of the Munna species."
"Once Munna eats her dream, we can achieve a magnificent reversal!"
"Besides wind-type moves, you have no way of resisting."
"But… Gardevoir is a psychic-type Pokémon, are you saying she can even learn flying-type moves?"
Hearing Caitlin's explanation, Axel subconsciously furrowed his brows.
No wonder this woman so confidently explained the tactic, it really seemed flawless.
No need for Gardevoir to fall asleep to use Dream Eater, and it wasn't even a formal move.
If that's the case...
"Gardevoir, use Icy Wind, blow away the smoke around you!"
Caitlin, Munna: "???"
'Axel, are you the devil?'
'You raised a psychic-type Pokémon, yet aside from psychic-type moves, she learns all kinds of other moves without missing a single one!'
But very quickly, Caitlin thought of a possibility.
'Axel must just be bluffing.'
'Whose psychic-type Pokémon learns this kind of stuff?'
At that moment, a glint of icy blue flashed through Gardevoir's eyes. Paired with her fluttering pink hair and white dress, she looked extremely beautiful.
But Caitlin and Ishida had no time to appreciate Gardevoir's beauty. Both couldn't help but widen their eyes.
'Wait, she really can use it?'
They thought Axel was just talking nonsense...
Whose Pokémon ignores its main type and learns a bunch of weird off-type moves?
"Garde~!"
Accompanied by a wailing gust, the temperature in the entire battle room suddenly plummeted.
The frigid gale burst from Gardevoir as the center, sweeping indiscriminately across everything nearby.
While dealing damage to Munna, most of the pink smoke surrounding her was also blown away, scattering onto the ground and into the air.
Ishida couldn't help but wrap his coat tighter, and the little Duraludon watching nearby also trembled, using its two little claws to cover its eyes.
'Is this the power of Sister Gardevoir?'
'So scary, so terrifying. Luckily, I chickened out instantly back then!'
Even Caitlin had her psychic defense broken by the freezing Icy Wind and couldn't help but wrap her clothes tighter.
Her elegant brows slightly furrowed, and her surging psychic power burst forth, a cold and angry shout flooding into Munna's mind.
["Do it!"]
No need to say more, since Munna was still under the effect of Encore.
Aside from continuing to use Swift, Munna only had the option of eating Gardevoir's dream.
Even though the pink smoke on Gardevoir's body was already nearly gone.
From a great distance, it opened its mouth. The remaining pink smoke on Gardevoir instantly floated up, carrying part of her dream back into Munna's mouth.
Munna opened its drowsy eyes, planning to make one last struggle before passing out.
But just as Gardevoir's dream entered Munna's mind, its sleepy eyes suddenly widened, filled with terror.
'Oh no, why is this Gardevoir's dream so terrifying?'
He saw Gardevoir facing off alone against a bunch of immensely powerful Pokémon he'd never even seen before.
Among them was a massive, pitch-black dragon-shaped Pokémon.
A gigantic monster with a body as red as magma.
And another one radiating a violent, destructive aura, like a demonic mirror spirit.
Munna had a feeling that any one of those Pokémon could easily tear him and his trainer to shreds.
But Gardevoir faced nearly ten of these kinds of Pokémon all by herself.
Except for the red one on the ground that was raging uselessly, all the other Pokémon launched attacks at Gardevoir.
Munna thought Gardevoir would flee, but to his surprise, she charged directly at the first black dragon that attacked her.
'Then… she killed that black dragon?'
"Muuu!"
The scene ended abruptly at that moment. Munna broke into a cold sweat and looked fearfully at Gardevoir in the distance, instinctively stepping back half a step.
'Oh my god, what kind of monster am I fighting?'
Munna's body trembled, and tears uncontrollably rolled from the corners of his eyes.
After peeking into even half of Gardevoir's dream, Munna was scared to tears.
Axel tugged the corner of his mouth.
'It's just a beating, what's there to get so emotional about?'
But on second thought, maybe Munna was upset because he couldn't beat Gardevoir in his best field, his dreams.
Like a professional table tennis player losing to an old man in a neighborhood tournament, crying a bit is understandable.
"Munna has lost the will to fight. Gardevoir wins this match!"
"The wagered funds will be automatically transferred to Axel's account. This match is over!"
Upon hearing Ishida announce the match's end, Axel's expression stiffened, and he quickly took a few steps back.
'You idiot, President, why announce it now?'
'At least run a few steps first!'
Ishida looked at Axel, confused about why he made such a move.
But he soon understood.
Right after the match ended, the illness tied to Caitlin's psychic power suddenly erupted.
The berserk Caitlin floated in midair, her waist-length blonde hair wildly flying, her gaze full of rage as she looked at Ishida, who was the closest.
BANG!
With just a raise of her hand, Ishida flew uncontrollably and slammed into the wall behind him, lingering for a moment before slowly sliding down.
Thankfully, the walls of the Pokémon Center were sturdy. Otherwise, he'd be embedded in the wall, and they'd need tools to dig him out.
A red light flashed from Ishida's waist, Medicham automatically appeared in front of him, using psychic power to block Caitlin's second attack.
"Medicham, use Grass Knot to bind Caitlin!"
Axel gave Ishida a big thumbs-up.
'Mr. President, you're really not afraid to die!'
