When the trio of Slowking, Electabuzz, and Espeon teleported away from Alex, they encountered their respective opponents in the form of Alakazam, Nidoking and Nidorina.

Slowking left to face off Alakazam while Espeon went away with nidorina.

Everyone knew that the battle between the two left out pokemons would be the decisive battle of the Pokemon Tide invasion and will determine the Victor.

Yet they themselves knew that they weren"t strong enough to involve themselves and would only be a burden for the other.

When they left, Electabuzz and Nidoking shrouded themselves in their respective forms of power.

Electabuzz was shrouded in the golden stream of thunder while nidoking was in a purple hue.

In terms of type advantage, Nidoking may have a clear cut advantage but in terms of elemental powers, they were each other"s equal.

Most of the nidoking found in the wild are basically poison attribute pseudo king. As for why they weren"t ground type, is because of their lack of enough training.

Poison provides a better chance of survival than the slow and clumsy ground attacks that average Nido family learns.

Only on becoming Nidoking and they are powerful as well as lucky at that, then they could learn some powerful ground type or rock type moves which are effective against the electric type Electabuzz.

And that move would be earth power. But it would all be based on his luck.

In this battle, the only thing which could put electabuzz in danger would be his poison.

And the most prominent place which could poison him would be the spikes and areas around them.

Electabuzz with the increased speed appeared just below nidoking and gave a heavy thunder powered hammer arm on his stomach.

It managed to push back nidoking a couple of steps but a heavy tail wrung towards him glowing purple.

Electabuzz jumped in the air to dodge and swing his tail as iron tail.

They both clashed but electabuzz lost in brute Force making him step back.

Electabuzz put his feet on the ground firmly to not skid back more and rushed back with both his arms glowing in yellow.

Electabuzz speed was his advantage so he dodged as many attacks as he could and made sure that he would three hits for every single hit received.

And the slugfest began. Fist hit fist, leg hit leg and tail hit tail.

Nidoking even used his horn to attack but electabuzz made sure to evade in time.

They continued like this until Slowking"s ascent was sensed by them and both created some gap in between them.

Now after the slight time of rest, they have started to use long range attacks with nidoking sending thundershock and thunderbolt to irritate him.

These attacks won"t knock him out but may paralyse the for in front of him making him an easy target.

Both pokemons currently have only one move which is effective on the other.


Nidoking had Earth power while electabuzz had ice punch.

These two are killer which could change the course of battle if used in the right moment. So they both are waiting for that moment.

Nidoking smashed his hand in the ground and the ground seemed to turn dark. As soon as it arrived near electabuzz he instinctively jumped back barely escaped the attack.

The entire ground he stood exploded with poison and everything around seemed to die.

Electabuzz was even more vigilant now. He was at a disadvantage with his thunder attack not working effectively due to type attribute so he cannot fight from long range and get defeated in physical strength showing he was at disadvantage at close range too.

He seemed to think of utilising the killer move now. Although he won"t be defeated at least he would be slowed down giving him enough time to dodge most attacks.

Electabuzz sent a powerful thunder pulse at nidoking who replied back with a tide of poison sludge.

When they collided everything around a hundred metre was either destroyed or dead.

Electabuzz took the collision as a chance and hit nidoking at his neck with ice punch .

This attack put a layer of frost around the neck and there was a slight crack sound heard from impact.

Nidoking swung his arm at electabuzz but he fell down to dodge and hit the knee of nidoking woth low kick and as he fell down he gave another powerful ice punch to the knee

This time it was much harder hit than before and the knee seemed to bend in opposite direction.

His left leg out of action and he had lost his speed as well as movement.

Nidoking roared loudly in pain from the knee injury she electabuzz was smug about the attack. He was unaware Nidoking prepared a gift from him and soon ma.s.sive spikes of Earth under Earth power move hit electabuzz.

Under instincts he jumped back but he wasn"t completely unfazed.

He had bruise on his legs and arms but this wasn"t what makes it difficult for electabuzz. The really dangerous thing was that electabuzz was poisoned.

The Earth spikes had poison on them which was injected in the electabuzz body now.

It seemed like a double kill. Nidoking lost his knee and became a sitting slowpoke. While electabuzz was hurt and poisoned, he was fighting a battle against time.

Their battle has only begun for fifteen minutes and they are already seriously injured. Both underestimated their opponents and paired dearly for it.

The battle between Pokemon of this level was fierce and they cannot have a single moment of neglect or else they would pay with defeat or even death.

Electabuzz himself knows he was fighting a losing battle so he forsake all thoughts of defence and attacked nidoking with only effective ice punch.

Ice punch was effective so his attacks were mostly ice punch and they were targeted at his shoulders. He wanted to make him lose one arm.

Meanwhile all the attacks of nidoking hit electabuzz on his abdomen which was protected by his thunder armour.

This made sure he doesn"t get heavy bruise or any internal organs is misplaced.

In half an hour time, nidoking lost his right shoulder. Its bones were completely broken and could be of no use.

Electabuzz had blood guessing from the body and he was breathing more heavily than nidoking due to him being poisoned.

Alex gave him some pecha berry before the battle in case he need to slow down poison as well as thunder power combating poison make sure he last for so long.

He could barely fight for fifteen minutes after which he would be immobilsed due to poison in his body.

There wasn"t a single moment to breathe for the two. The battle was too fast to use anything other than physical moves and the special long range attack were either non effective or too slow that the other will dodge.

During the battle he sent multiple sharp poison objects to injure electabuzz but he dodged most of them. After being poisoned he mostly ignored the lesser powerful poison attacks.

They didn"t bother to chat with one another and let their fist do the talking.

The two knew that they cannot last long and should end the battle quickly.

Suddenly an attack hit nidoking in the back which forced him to fall on the ground, electabuzz ignored the attacker and hit him with a nother ice punch this time on his eye making one of his eye worthless in battle.

After that, the attacker leviated rocks and stones around and hurled them at nidoking hard. Electabuzz turned to see that the attacker was Espeon.

Espeon had arrived at the battlefield to help electabuzz. How will nidoking react to the death of his mate? Stay tuned
