>>16682077Machoke whips up a storm in his fist, getting closer and closer to Dedenne to end the battle with a Dynamic Punch. He pumps his fist, takes a deep breath, and gets ready to punch that fucking hamster's smug face in.
But just as he readies to do so, the bolt of electricity gonks him at the last minute, once again taking the crowd by surprise, Korrina more than anyone else.
"W-What?! Paralysis has never affected Machoke like that before! M-Machoke, hang in there!"
"I don't think so, PLAY ROUGH DEDENNE!"
Kush-kushing one more time, Dedenne takes the opportunity to sweep Machoke in yet another Play Rough, dishing super-effective bruises here and there, completely annihilating him of any remaining health he has on his platter.
By the time the mayhem is over and the cloud disappears, Machoke is on the ground, fainted with paralysis running through him. Dedenne smiles, rubbing his cheeks in the bodylifter's face.
"Heh, I guess going for the signature move was too much a risk. Good job Calem, but I'm not playing around when I say my next Pokemon was intentionally saved for last! He's stronger than Mienfoo, and much faster than Machoke, he's a mix of the two and he's going to send you to your death bed, Lady Korrina GUARANTEES it!"
Silence falls over the crowd as Korrina takes out her third and final pokeball.
Your heart rate begins accelerating.
It's time.
