Chapter 608 - Lightning and Flame! Shocking First Battle!

The recording device continuously captured the mysterious aura enveloping Arcanine. This aura was the source of the sudden surge in Arcanine's power just moments ago.

At this moment, Arcanine's physique had been strengthened to an extremely high level. Its body was instantly able to withstand much more power.

With Arcanine's wild explosiveness, this transformation directly pushed the destructive power and speed of its moves to an extraordinary level.

Galvantula maintained control over the Electroweb shield, eyes nervously fixed on the Arcanine charging in like a phantom. Everything that happened in between had taken place in just an instant. Arcanine had erupted with full force, its speed reaching an unimaginable degree. With such explosive power, human vision could no longer clearly follow its movements.

However, the surging flames were a clear indicator that Arcanine was launching a deadly strike at Galvantula!

The fire demon made instantaneous contact with the Electroweb shield, and an endless surge of electricity erupted wildly, splashing toward the flames in an attempt to crush Arcanine's assault. Yet, faced with the frenzied invasion of electric currents, Arcanine's body underwent another astonishing transformation the very next moment.

As countless electric currents surged through it, Arcanine's body crackled with lightning, and in that same instant, it unleashed four moves simultaneously.

Outrage, Extreme Speed, Flare Blitz, and Wild Charge!

This bold move made more than a few Top Coordinators break out in cold sweat, eyes full of worry.

Executing three moves at once was already extremely difficult. What Arcanine was doing now, in the eyes of most people, was undoubtedly a suicidal act.

You could say the first three moves still had some synergy, but Flare Blitz and Wild Charge? Those two are completely contradictory in nature!

To launch such an attack at once… wasn't Arcanine afraid that the clash between electricity and fire would cause an explosion?!

"He's using Wild Charge to absorb the electricity from the Electroweb shield, while looking for a chance to break through," Wallace observed the clashing currents and flames, his eyes filled with astonishment.

Such a bold strategy likely wasn't something Terrance came up with on the spot just to handle the current situation...

As a Top Coordinator, Terrance surely understood the consequences of failure in trying this. Knowing the risks, and still choosing to go ahead. Well, the result will speak for itself.

It meant Terrance had immense confidence in Arcanine. Or rather, this technique had already been thoroughly mastered through countless rounds of training.

"Let's give it a try, the fusion of thunder and flame…"

Staring at the scene of yellow and red intertwining, Terrance tensed. Although they had succeeded in practice before, this was truly the first time he and Arcanine were using Wild Charge to resist electrical currents in a real battle. It was a desperate gamble; if the attack failed, he would lose!

BOOM!!

A deafening roar erupted as the sky was instantly filled with scattered fire serpents and countless flickering electric currents. The next moment, Arcanine, its body surging with both electricity and flames, stepped onto empty air, transforming into a streak of light that shattered the Electroweb shield, then its ferocious gaze locked onto the Galvantula behind it.

Galvantula, use Agility to dodge!

Leo had already given the command, and Galvantula had received it, but even with Agility, in the face of this terrifying monster, Galvantula was overwhelmed by a deep, paralyzing sense of despair.

Even with Agility, in terms of speed, or rather, in terms of body coordination and reaction, Galvantula still lost.

"Th-this, Galvantula has been—" Vivian swallowed hard, her voice stammering as she watched the relentless barrage of attacks. As Arcanine turned into a flash of lightning and flame, Vivian began to question reality itself. What was she witnessing?

One of the main Pokémon of an Elite Four, being hit with combos to the point of helplessness?!

BANG!!! BANG!!! BANG!!!!!!

Galvantula's entire body was completely engulfed in lightning and flame. Its surroundings had long been corroded by fire and lightning, while Arcanine, simultaneously wielding both elements, appeared so fierce that people couldn't even tell whether it still had its rationality.

At this moment, Arcanine truly resembled a savage beast.

Wave after wave of powerful attacks crazily smashed into Galvantula's body. Beyond the raw strength, the explosive force from the clashing raging flames and lightning continuously rained down upon it.

Taking down an Elite Four's Pokémon with one blow was impossible. Right now, as long as Arcanine hadn't completely lost consciousness, the only thing to do was to attack endlessly, charge relentlessly!

HSSSS!!!

Galvantula tried to anchor itself with silk threads to escape, but a scorching heat wave swept through, followed by a dazzling explosion of thunder and flames that erupted right beside it. The immense force knocked Galvantula from the air and slammed it back onto the ground.

"This…"

"This…"

"My god…"

Regardless of who they were, audience members, Top Coordinators, Top Trainers, or even the higher ups who organized this festival, when they saw Arcanine's frenzied combo attacks, they all rose to their feet, staring in disbelief at Leo, whose expression had returned to calm.

Elite Four Leo… was being suppressed. Although his face hadn't changed, from his indifferent posture, anyone could see his powerlessness. Against this kind of crazy onslaught from Arcanine, he couldn't get Galvantula out of it!

"We can only wait."

At the same time, Leo could also tell that Arcanine was burning through its energy at an absurd rate. Right now, the only thing he could do was pray that Galvantula could hold on longer than Arcanine.

"To think this Arcanine has grown to such an extent. This combo…it's actually enough to suppress even an Elite Four!!" Raoul Contesta was so excited he stood up, staring at the arena where lightning and flame intertwined with utter exhilaration.

"This is… a little terrifying…" Albus wore a grave expression. This Arcanine made him feel genuinely threatened. He released his Aura power, attempting to sense the mysterious aura surrounding Arcanine, but came up with nothing at all.

"Outrage has awakened Arcanine's wild nature, pushing its combat instincts to an unimaginable level. Even if there's a gap in battle experience, it's completely compensated by this. And the most astonishing part is the perfect integration of lightning and flame. This technique alone is enough to make your name as a Coordinator known everywhere across the world." Even Wallace hadn't anticipated that the first battle would see Terrance demonstrating such overwhelming dominance.

"I remember when Growlithe battled me, it still fell hard trying to land a hit on my airborne Swablu. And now, in just this short amount of time, this Arcanine can stomp through explosive flames in mid-air to attack Galvantula…" Winona looked lost in thought. She realized that the speed at which Terrance progressed far exceeded anything she could imagine.

At the same time, people all around the world were watching this first battle between Arcanine and Galvantula.

The terrifying offensive Arcanine displayed completely shattered the gentle image it had left behind in the Fire-type event.
