A flash of white light.
Butterfree's figure appeared in the air.
Its pale wings fluttered slowly, scattering fine scales.
This Butterfree, having eaten a super flight berry, was a full size larger than an ordinary Butterfree.
The patterns on its wings were also more splendid, shimmering with a dreamlike luster under the morning light.
"Wow~"
From the stands, Violet couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"This Butterfree... it's so beautiful~"
Her gaze followed the trajectory of Butterfree's flight, her eyes sparkling.
"But with such a large body, will its speed be affected?"
"Not sure, but it would definitely be great for coordinating performances."
The two sisters instantly went off on a tangent about performances.
"Hey, Sister Daisy, do you think Misty can win?" Violet leaned in, blinking her eyes.
"I think it's doubtful~" Daisy's gaze fell on Roy: "His commands are very practiced, and his Butterfree looks so different."
"That girl Misty, while she has some talent, lacks far too much experience~"
Lily also nodded in agreement.
"And look at Roy's expression~"
She pointed at Roy on the battle platform.
"He looks completely confident of victory~"
"Be ready to console Misty~"
The three older sisters were still predicting her failure.
But what they didn't know was, this was exactly the effect Roy wanted.
To make them think Misty was bound to lose.
Then, through a "fierce" battle, make them see Misty in a new light.
That way, he could get the sisters' support for Misty to go traveling later.
After all, a "talented Trainer" traveling with a "powerful Trainer" was a perfectly reasonable thing.
"Well then..."
Roy withdrew his gaze and looked at Misty across from him.
"Let's begin."
Misty took a deep breath, her eyes instantly turning sharp.
"Staryu, use Water Gun!"
The battle officially began... "Butterfree, dodge it, then use Confusion!"
Roy commanded with great effort.
His voice was a full octave louder than during his battle with Daisy.
His expression was also more "intense," his brow furrowed, appearing fully concentrated.
The Butterfree in the air performed a nimble side-flip, dodging the jet of water sprayed by Staryu.
Then, with a flap of its wings, its eyes glowed blue.
Confusion activated!
An invisible force enveloped Staryu.
Staryu's body immediately stiffened, forcibly dragged out of the water and suspended in mid-air.
"Staryu, use Rapid Spin!"
Misty reacted quickly.
She didn't panic at being controlled by Confusion, immediately thinking of a countermeasure.
Staryu's body began to spin violently.
Its five-pointed star-shaped body turned into a white whirlwind, forcibly breaking free from the Confusion's restraint!
Splash!
It fell back into the water, splashing up a spray.
"Good!"
Misty's eyes lit up.
"Just like that, use Bubble Beam!"
The red gem at Staryu's center flashed.
Countless bubbles gushed from its body, shooting towards the Butterfree in the air!
The bubbles refracted a rainbow sheen in the morning light, covering an extremely wide area.
"Butterfree, ascend!"
Roy "nervously" shouted.
Butterfree flapped its wings strenuously, climbing upward.
But the Bubble Beam's range was too wide, and some bubbles still struck its wings.
The bubbles burst, turning into fine droplets of water.
Butterfree's body swayed but quickly stabilized.
"Now's the chance!"
Misty seized this opportunity.
"Staryu, dive underwater!"
Staryu's body sank, disappearing beneath the water's surface.
"Trying to use the Natural Cure ability to remove the effects of Confusion?"
Roy "muttered to himself," his voice just loud enough for The three sisters in the stands to hear.
"A very clever tactic."
"But..."
The corner of his mouth curled into a "confident" smile.
"Butterfree, use Sleep Powder on the water's surface!"
Butterfree flapped its wings.
Pale green powder scattered, covering the area of water where Staryu had submerged.
The water's surface immediately shimmered with a faint green light.
"It's useless!"
Misty said loudly, a triumphant smile appearing on her face.
"Staryu, now, use Recover!"
Underwater, Staryu's body glowed white.
The Natural Cure ability activated, combined with the dual effect of the Recover move, instantly clearing the damage and effects caused by Confusion!
Then, it burst out of the water!
"Rapid Spin, charge up!"
Staryu transformed into a white whirlwind, shooting straight towards the Butterfree in the air!
"Butterfree, Protect!"
Roy "urgently" shouted.
A transparent barrier materialized in front of Butterfree.
Thud!!!
Staryu crashed into the barrier with a dull thud.
The barrier shattered upon impact.
But Staryu's charge was also blocked.
"Now, Butterfree, Gust."
Roy "seized the opportunity" and issued the command.
Butterfree flapped its wings fiercely.
"Staryu, Harden!"
Misty's command followed closely, boosting its defense.
The wind blades grazed it, only causing minor damage to Staryu.
"And then, Water Gun!"
This time, the water jet Staryu sprayed was more concentrated and faster!
Butterfree had just used Gust, its wings in a brief post-move stiffness.
It couldn't dodge!
Sploosh!
The water jet hit Butterfree squarely!
"Butterfree!"
Roy "exclaimed."
Butterfree was sent tumbling backward by the water jet, flipping several times in the air before barely stabilizing.
Its wings were soaked, making flight strenuous.
"The finishing blow!"
Misty seized this chance, excitement in her voice.
"Staryu, Rapid Spin!"
Staryu once again became a white whirlwind, charging towards the teetering Butterfree in the air!
This time, Butterfree no longer had the strength to evade.
Thud!!!
It was hit solidly!
"Butterfree!"
Roy "anxiously" shouted.
Butterfree plummeted from the air and fell into the pool.
It splashed up a huge spray of water.
A few seconds later, it floated to the surface.
Its eyes had turned into spirals.
"Butterfree is out!"
Roy "resignedly" announced, recalling Butterfree.
"Yay yay yay! I won, I won!"
Misty was so excited she jumped on the spot.
Her orange short hair flew with the movement.
The top of her swimsuit shifted slightly upward with the jump, revealing a small strip of pale waist.
Her bare feet pattered on the tiled floor as she hopped.
Her face was radiant with a brilliant smile, her eyes full of excited light.
In the stands, the three older sisters were stunned.
"Ha, this stubborn girl has gotten so strong."
Violet was the first to snap out of it, unable to hold back a laugh.
Her gaze followed the hopping Misty, her eyes full of surprise.
"Her commands were fluid, and her tactical application was very reasonable."
"Using the Natural Cure ability to remove a negative status, then seizing the chance to counterattack..."
"Is this really our little sister who used to only cry?"
Lily also clicked her tongue in amazement.
But her gaze fell on Misty's chest, bouncing up and down as she jumped.
"However, her victory celebration is so ungraceful~"
"Jumping so wildly, oh my~"
"Silly girl, your panties are almost showing~"
As she said this, her eyes narrowed, staring at the faint outline beneath Misty's swim shorts.
Only Daisy remained silent.
She quietly watched her younger sister excitedly hopping by the poolside.
Watching the brilliant smile on her face, listening to her clear laughter.
After a long while, Daisy let out a soft sigh.
The corner of her mouth, however, curled into a gratified arc.
"Misty, you've really grown up."
She murmured to herself, her voice so soft only she could hear.
After the water spray completely settled, The three sisters excitedly ran forward to congratulate Misty.
Halfway there, the gym suddenly shook with a violent tremor!
