Body Slam utilized Dragonite's sheer weight to crush its opponent, often inducing paralysis under certain conditions.

Unlike in the games, the effectiveness of Body Slam in the real world relied heavily on the Pokémon's actual weight.

With Dragonite's massive size, the power behind its Body Slam was bound to be terrifying.

Even though Aerodactyl had Mega Evolved, its low defense stats meant that taking a direct hit like this would likely spell defeat.

Dragonite plummeted from the sky like an enormous orange meteor.

Noticing the oncoming rush of air, Aerodactyl shuddered instinctively and looked up.

One look, and Aerodactyl felt a chill run down its spine.

Frantically flapping its wings, it tried to escape.

However, the wound from Dragon Pulse on its wing had greatly hindered its speed.

Just a slight hesitation was all it took.

In that instant, Dragonite, falling like a comet, crashed into Aerodactyl with earth-shaking force.

At that moment, Aerodactyl's fierce appearance seemed fragile and helpless beneath Dragonite's crushing weight.

Even after being struck, Aerodactyl struggled to break free.

If it could just wriggle out from under Dragonite before they hit the ground, it still had a chance.

But Aerodactyl had misjudged.

With the air pressure pulling it down, Dragonite's weight bore down so forcefully that even a slight wing movement became difficult for Aerodactyl.

Dragonite's enormous frame smashed Aerodactyl into the ground with a resounding impact.

Boom!

The deafening noise echoed across the mountainside.

The ground shook.

Aerodactyl had finally landed.

Dust rose from the battlefield in thick clouds.

"How'd it go?" Gary, who'd been watching the fight intently, asked.

The battle had been brief, but Dragonite and Aerodactyl's clash was thrilling.

"It should be over," Professor Oak concluded from years of experience.

Aerodactyl had Mega Evolved right before his eyes, so he had a fair understanding of its stats. With the sheer mass of Dragonite's Body Slam, Mega Aerodactyl had little chance of enduring.

Professor Oak's thoughts mirrored Luo Yuan's.

Snap.

Luo Yuan snapped his fingers.

Using psychic power, he dispersed the dust cloud on the field.

As the dust settled, they saw Dragonite sitting on the ground, rubbing its tail with a rather pitiful look.

When it saw Luo Yuan looking over, it let out a whine.

Through his Viridian powers, Luo Yuan understood Dragonite's meaning.

"Oww… I got my tail spiked."

Luo Yuan glanced at the unconscious Aerodactyl, its spiky body still as imposing as ever, and coughed lightly.

"Ahem, that's on me."

Although Dragonite had held back in the final blow due to their friendship, the spikes on Aerodactyl's body still caused it significant discomfort.

Who could be blamed here?

With Aerodactyl knocked out cold, only Luo Yuan was left at fault.

After soothing Dragonite with a few Pokéblocks, Luo Yuan checked on Aerodactyl, using his Viridian powers to heal its wounds before returning it to its Ultra Ball.

Professor Oak and Gary approached him.

"That was spectacular," Professor Oak praised.

For him, the highlight of the battle wasn't Dragonite's Body Slam.

It was Luo Yuan's uncanny ability to predict Aerodactyl's movements, almost as though he had precognition.

This kind of foresight was rare even among experienced trainers, let alone for someone new to the field.

In short, Professor Oak felt confident that Luo Yuan could claim the Indigo League championship.

Gary's perspective was simpler—he just felt that Luo Yuan had gotten even stronger.

Just as Gary was about to say something, the doorbell at the lab rang unexpectedly.

"Who'd come to the lab at this hour? Could it be Ash?" Gary wondered aloud.

He walked over to the door and opened it, only to freeze in surprise.

The visitor was an older woman, leaning on a cane and dressed in a lavender dress with an apron-like garment.

"Uh…"

Gary blinked at the visitor, his words catching in his throat.

Standing at the entrance was Agatha, one of the Elite Four, her calm and steely gaze fixed on him. By her side stood a plump, smirking Gengar.

The moment he recognized Agatha, Gary felt as if he'd been hit by a Dark Pulse, his whole body stiffening with a shiver.

Agatha gave him a disdainful look and scoffed. "So, you're Oak's grandson? I'm here to see him."

Just then, Professor Oak, noticing Gary hadn't returned, came over with a curious look.

"Gary, what's taking you…"

He stopped short when he saw Agatha.

"Agatha? What brings you here?" Professor Oak's expression shifted.

While he'd wondered who their visitor might be, he hadn't imagined it would be Agatha.

Years ago, when he gave up his path as a Pokémon Trainer to focus on research, Agatha had seen it as a betrayal of their shared ideals, leading to a bitter falling out.

Since then, they'd cut ties.

Yet here Agatha was, standing in his lab…

Professor Oak rubbed his eyes, as if double-checking that he wasn't hallucinating.

Seeing this, Agatha's frown deepened. If it were up to her, she'd have gladly gone the rest of her life without seeing Professor Oak again. However, the current situation was too important.

"I'm here for an urgent matter."

Tap…

She hobbled into the lab with her cane.

It was only then that Agatha noticed there was a fourth person in the room.

"And who might you be?" she asked, frowning at Luo Yuan.

She had no idea this was the Team Rocket Executive who'd previously defeated her and Lance in Celadon City.

Luo Yuan smiled politely. "A rookie trainer—Luo Yuan."

Truth be told, Luo Yuan hadn't expected to encounter Agatha here either.

"I wonder what brought her to see Professor Oak," he thought.

Hearing his name, Agatha muttered it to herself a few times. "Luo Yuan… I think Lance may have mentioned him before… but as long as he's not with Team Rocket, it's fine."

If, in the past, Agatha had only been wary of Team Rocket without dwelling on it too much, her recent defeat at their hands had made her wary of every shadow.

Since Luo Yuan wasn't affiliated with Team Rocket, and had even been mentioned by Lance, Agatha didn't ask him to leave.
