"Hissss—!"
Ekans let out a shrill cry.
That Vital Throw from Buneary
had dealt it no small amount of damage.
A small crater had been smashed into the ground, dust billowing everywhere.
"Press the advantage! Buneary! Double Kick!"
"Kyubi!!"
Before Ekans could recover,
Buneary followed up with a Double Kick,
driving both kicks hard into Ekans's snake body.
Thud thud!!
After two heavy impacts,
two clear prints appeared on Ekans's body.
With that one move,
a large patch of Ekans's scales was kicked clean off.
"Hiss—"
Ekans forced itself to endure the pain
and struggled back up.
Its blood began to surge faster through its body,
and venom started secreting rapidly beneath its fangs.
This time,
the venom it produced wasn't purple—
It was green!
"Agility!"
Himeko's expression remained calm.
"Kyubi!"
Buneary's body relaxed in an instant, turning light and nimble.
In the next moment,
she sprang away from Ekans and pulled open the distance.
Whoosh!!
Clumps of green venom sprayed out.
They landed exactly where Buneary had been standing just a moment ago.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!
The ground was burned into pitted holes.
Dense bubbles rose across the surface of the venom,
and a pungent, nauseating stench drifted outward.
"Hissss!"
A crazed look surfaced in Ekans's eyes.
That Acid had missed too—
And it infuriated it!
"No need to waste time! Buneary! Finish it with Extreme Speed!"
Himeko's cool voice rang out.
At that moment,
Shiko, standing to the side,
felt an icy, overpowering aura from her—
Like an unrivaled queen, cold and strong.
"Kyubi!"
With Agility's boost,
Buneary's Extreme Speed carried even greater destructive force.
Ekans had just finished spewing its Acid.
The follow-up toxins in its body hadn't surged up yet.
Facing Buneary's offensive,
it had no way to respond at all.
It could only watch helplessly as Buneary's figure
grew larger and larger in its snake eyes.
Boom!!
Extreme Speed struck Ekans dead-on!
The enormous force
sent it flying straight out.
Ekans had already lost consciousness before it even hit the ground.
After tracing a parabolic arc through the air,
it was snatched away by a diving Pidgeot, which clamped down and carried it off.
"Kyubi!!"
Before Buneary could even celebrate this victory,
a powerful white glow began to burst from her body.
The white light wrapped around Buneary completely.
Her figure blurred, leaving only an outline.
She's evolving!!
The same thought exploded in both Shiko's and Himeko's minds at the same time.
Their eyes filled with anticipation—
Anticipation for what Buneary would look like after evolving.
Within the white light,
Buneary's silhouette kept changing.
Her height shot up noticeably in an instant,
and her figure became more shapely and graceful.
Beyond that,
Shiko could also clearly sense the change in energy within her.
Aside from the steadily strengthening aura of Normal-type energy,
there was also a different presence—
A powerfully forceful aura.
This is…
Fighting-type energy!
"Kyubi!!"
At last, the figure inside the white light stopped changing.
In the end,
what appeared was a humanoid silhouette
with long ears and a strikingly curvy build.
The evolution was complete!
The white light gradually receded.
Buneary's new form
slowly appeared before them.
Even though Shiko had already roughly sketched out
what Buneary would look like after evolving in his mind,
seeing it with his own eyes
still made him gasp in admiration.
The impact
was far stronger than any image in his head!
That well-defined figure was absolutely eye-catching.
Especially that coat of long, pink fur—
It made her look even more alluring.
Even Himeko, upon seeing Lopunny,
couldn't help showing a look of amazement.
"Kyubi!!"
Lopunny hopped back to Shiko,
threw her arms around him,
and rubbed against him affectionately, acting cute.
As expected.
Even after evolving,
she was still that clingy little sweetheart.
Shiko smiled to himself.
Himeko watched Lopunny acting intimate with Shiko,
and she couldn't help feeling a bit sour inside.
I'm the trainer here!
So why is this girl being so affectionate with Shiko?
Just as Himeko was grumbling internally—
All of a sudden,
in the quiet forest,
a blood-chilling scream rang out.
Immediately after,
a powerful surge of energy—
Like a storm—
swept through the entire forest!
