Welcome to Gaia! ::

....Son of a-. Lykas knew what that meant. That was a tracking technique used to hunt down a target with ease, especially one in hiding. And with Lucario's ability to not only sense energy but track it's movement as well, they were in trouble here. "We need to try and end this as fast as possible, Mykel." Lykas told his partner, the Gardevoir nodding in agreement.

"Believe me, I know. I can feel his eyes on me and they're not even open." Mykel replied. ""Just say the word, boss!"

"You got it. Psychic!" Lykas replied, hoping to have this ended as soon as possible. He knew that if Mykel got hit by one of those Steel-type moves, specifically, that he would be done. He'd have to either block every attack that came at him, which he knew wasn't possible or end it rapidly. Which was also impossible but less so than a totally flawless defense. Mykel nodded and blasted a wave of Psychic energy towards the Lucario. At least it might knock it off-kilter for a moment.

That hurt. A lot. But even as Mykel was hit, Lykas had a plan. "Teleport!" This time, Mykel would drag Lucario with him as he warped through space, changing their conjoined trajectory to send them soaring into the ground at Lucario's full speed. Mykel was knocked out by he impact, unable to move away quickly enough but, hopefully, it had done a bit of damage to the Fighting-type as well.

Once Lykas could see the fate of his closest friend, he paused. Was it worth it to keep fighting like this? To put the rest of his Pokemon through this kind of agony? He'd intended to recall Mykel before he could be knocked out but it had simply gone so fast he didn't have a chance to react to it. In his hesitation, Furor released herself from her ball. "Gyaaaa."

"I can't do it, Furor. I can't make you go back in there and get hurt again." He told her, rubbing the atrocious Pokemon's face softly. "Gyaaaaaaa." She wasn't going to be forced by him. It took a bit of doing but she managed to flip Mykel's ball free with her tail. "You....You aren't going to give up, are you?" Lykas asked, a bit surprised. He knew how his Pokemon could be. They were as stubborn as he was. But he also knew when he should give up and stop fighting. His Pokemon, on the other hand? They wouldn't stop fighting for his sake unless they didn't have the strength to keep going. Lykas knew that Furor couldn't have much strength left and yet she was still willing to fight. Taking the ball belonging to Mykel, he recalled the Gardevoir. "Be careful." He urged Furor, the Gyarados returning to the battlefield now, just in case. Better to be there and not be needed than to leave the field empty and forfeit the battle.

Lykas knew just how to counter this one, thankfully. "Use your own Dragon Pulse, Furor!"

With a mighty roar, a sphere of draconian energy quickly formed in the leviathan's mouth before a stream of that same energy poured out from it, pulsating with a drive unlike Lykas had witnessed before. Furor was ticked now. He could only be glad she was both on his side and listening. Many a Gyarados lost control completely when they got angry but Furor was channeling her rage into newfound energy. With that energy, she clashed with Lucario's attack, trying with all her might to drive it back and land an attack.

As Lucario's attack began to press back against hers, Furor felt something deep within her begin to stir, A well of energy unlike any she had felt before. It swelled with power for a moment before ebbing away again. As she fought against Lucario, it grew stronger by the second, until, at last, it seemed to burst. With a powerful roar, the Dragon Pulse she maintained grew stronger, the well of energy within suddenly filling her with renewed strength and vigor.

Lykas could only look on, mouth agape in astonishment at the power Furor was able to put behind her attack. He hadn't realized she had quite so much potential, even as a creature praised for it's destructive prowess. "You feeling alright?" He asked after he attack was done, wincing slightly at the damaged Lucario. Mega or not, that had to hurt.

"Gyaaaaaah." Furor responded, more energetic than before

"Awesome. Let's see if we can win this, then." Lykas replied, hearing Korrina call her attack at the same time. "Bounce!" The Gyarados reacted near instantly, slamming her tail into the ground and hurling herself skyward, cloaked in a whirling maelstrom of wind. The Lucario's blazing fast attack caught her off guard, slightly but with her newfound strength and vigor, she reacted a bit faster. Instead of the back of head, she moved just enough that the kick glanced off the side of one of her dorsal fins. It still hit her but nowhere near where Lucario had aimed. In the process of looking her, however, Lucario allowed the flying serpent to twist her lower body around and slap it full strength with her tail, with now glowed with the windy energy of the Flying-type she had had taken on.

"Furor! Dragon Pulse Shield!" Lykas called out, sensing the incredible spike in Lucario's chi. He had to give Furor an order before it overwhelmed him. Sometimes it just plain sucked to be chi sensitive.

Furor heard the call and it took a second to recall the move. It was an atypical use of Dragon Pulse but it just might do the trick. Rather than fire off a beam of Dragon chi, she poured all of that energy into a single point, the orb growing in size until it had essentially swallowed her up, leaving her to swim in a massive bubble of sizzling Dragon-type energy. With her recently unlocked potential, the bubble was denser than it would normally have been, leaving Lucario to wade through a lake of searing energy to reach the serpent, which it appeared wasn't doing much to stop it.

Dodging the kick to the head, Furor managed to coil her tail around rather quickly but when the meteor-like punch came from above, she didn't see it in time to dodge it and ended up slammed face first into the floor. The explosive blast of fighting chi didn't help her any, either. Regardless, she would eventually pry her face out of the floor, looking rather woozy. Depending on how Lucario fared with that Dragon Pulse shield and how badly it was hurt by wading through all that chi, she might be done.

Furor would follow shortly after Lucario. Yes, the attack had harmed her quite a bit but it was less that damage than it was pure exhaustion from expending so much chi all at once. But he still had Pokemon he could battle with so that meant he won, right?

"So....I guess I won?" He asked, a little confused by that ending. "I still have other Pokemon on me that can battle."

Either way, he walked over to the Gyarados before him and pulled out his last Full Restore, spraying it onto the chi burns on her body. "You did great, girl. Sorry for making you do that but it was the only thing I could think of to stop it. No one left could have stood up to that kind of onslaught like you did." He praised, knowing she was unconscious at the moment and wouldn't be able to hear him but he wanted to say it now, anyway. He'd tell her again later, once this was all over.
