Time passed swiftly as the Dark Guild gradually turned the tide of battle in their favor. The mid-level trainers, fearing injury, retreated to the rear, relying heavily on their flying Pokémon, which constituted most of the primary forces. This shift reduced the pressure significantly on Genesect.
Undoubtedly, Rhea, the Flying Elite Four member, displayed the most formidable performance during the battle. As a specialist in Flying-type Pokémon, her team consisted entirely of powerful Flying-types, totaling six members, each stronger than Genesect individually.
Apart from those defeated by Fire-type Pokémon, almost all Genesects incapacitated were taken down by Rhea's Pokémon.
Her team comprised exceptional Flying-type Pokémon such as Togekiss, Altaria, Scyther, and four others.
Between battles, Rhea observed the overall situation with concern. She noticed the mid-level trainers' retreat, realizing that at this rate, the Ellie Region's Pokémon would suffer continuous depletion.
Although she had successfully eliminated many Genesects, her pace was limited. The mid-level trainers were supposed to be the main force in this battle.
As Rhea watched numerous Pokemon being defeated by Genesect's beams like reaping wheat, she wasn't concerned about defeat but feared the inevitable heavy losses.
This outcome did not align with her expectations; victory should have been achieved decisively through overwhelming numbers, leaving no chance for the Dark Guild to counterattack. Instead, losing so many Pokemon was deeply embarrassing.
However, Rhea couldn't force the mid-level trainers to recklessly charge into battle, as their lives were at stake. They had the right to prioritize their own safety. If her orders led to any loss of life among these trainers, it would be a responsibility she could not bear.
"A bunch of useless fools," Rhea muttered inwardly.
In the sky above, Lian had been patiently waiting while continuously defending Ninetales from incoming Genesect attacks. Ninetales' Drought Ability gradually took effect, increasing Fire-type energy and intensifying sunlight.
Lian looked up, feeling the blazing sun's rays, which brought him immense comfort. After waiting for so long, the weather in this area finally transformed into a scorching Sunny Day.
"It's time to begin."
Flying high above, Lian observed the swarm of Genesect on the rooftop. In his eyes, they represented pure experience points; defeating these Pokemon would swiftly propel him towards level fifty.
Recalling his past encounter in Mono City, Ellie Region, where he had utilized Fire Blast to eliminate numerous weak Pokemon, Lian knew that with precise control, the resulting explosion from Fire Blast could unleash immense power.
He started gathering energy. Although not as potent as his self-created Flame Spiral, Fire Blast offered a broader area of effect. With its explosive flames, it could deliver powerful fire-based damage within a designated range, making it highly effective against large groups of Pokemon.
This moment was perfect, enhanced by Sunny Day and Lian's inherent Solar Power Ability. His Fire Blast would far surpass those released by ordinary Charizards, operating on a completely different scale.
A small flame appeared before Lian, flickering continuously. As he channeled more fire energy into it, the tiny ember rapidly expanded, with flames spreading outward at great speed.
The flames quickly took shape, forming a massive Fire Blast that continued to expand rapidly. Within the blink of an eye, it became colossal, with intense heat distorting the surrounding air.
Hanging high above, Lian controlled the enormous Fire Blast and aimed it directly at the Genesects on the rooftop before swiftly unleashing it downward.
Like a giant hand, the Fire Blast descended rapidly, contrasting sharply with the slower-moving Fire Blasts typically released by other Charizards, which were easily evaded. Lian's Fire Blast not only appeared denser but also moved several times faster.
Several Genesects fired beams intending to disperse the Fire Blast and prevent it from reaching the rooftop.
However, Lian wouldn't allow his Fire Blast to be so easily thwarted; he had prepared meticulously for this moment, determined to unleash its full potential.
BOOM!
Lian triggered the premature explosion of the Fire Blast just before the techno beams reached it, ensuring they couldn't dissipate its power.
By then, the Fire Blast was already close to the rooftop. As it exploded, countless fragments of flame scattered, hurtling towards the Genesects.
The flames, carrying terrifying Fire-type energy, surged towards Genesect with such speed that there was no chance for evasion.
As the Techno Blast's energy beam collided with the exploding flames, it proved futile, only managing to resist a minuscule portion of the inferno.
After detonating the Fire Blast, Lian deliberately controlled its direction, ensuring none of the flames dispersed upwards like fireworks but instead plummeted downwards.
By manipulating the release of the explosion, he directed every bit of flaming debris straight towards Genesect, akin to a cascading firework display.
This massive Fire Blast maneuver reverberated across the sky, causing temperatures around the area to skyrocket instantly and capturing everyone's attention.
Kentra, engaged in battle nearby, paled at the sight, recalling the familiar scene from his previous failure in the Ellie Region. Now, history repeated itself, with this Fire Blast appearing even more powerful than before.
The intense heatwave swept across, reaching distant Pokemon and Trainers who felt the terrifyingly high temperature emanating from the flames, their expressions filled with astonishment.
Lian observed as countless flames erupted, creating a massive inferno that engulfed the entire rooftop of the tower, capturing all the Genesects within its blast radius.
The Genesects had no chance to evade; they were still executing moves and engaged in battle, unable to react swiftly enough to Lian's Fire Blast.
With only one or two Genesects attempting to counter, it was insufficient to halt Lian's attack, leading to this inevitable outcome.
Although Lian's Fire Blast detonated earlier than intended, it did not diminish its destructive power significantly.
Countless flames descended upon the Genesects, enveloping them densely. With quadruple damage due to type advantage, it was akin to red-hot iron meeting water - each Genesect suffered severe injuries instantly.
Within moments, a large number of Genesects lost their ability to continue fighting, as flames ravaged the entire rooftop.
