Upon the battlefield.
After Dragonite fell asleep, it casually turned over and then a "Phantom Flash," instantly knocking out the Dazzling Stripe beside it.
This black flash that seemed to come from the void was actually a combination move of Awakening Power·Evil and Hurricane.
It was a technique that could only be expertly used while in a Nightmare State.
Phantom Flash is the release of an evil and terrifying aura from within the body, intimidating the enemy's heart.
Then, the surrounding airflow would follow the movement of the Evil Intent, wildly sweeping and compressing towards the enemy from all directions, further restricting the enemy's actions!
（´Д`）ﾉ⟵⟵⟵⟵⟵⟵⟵⟵⟵⟵ At the end, the Dark-type Flash would ride the sweeping wind of the Hurricane Blade and transform into a shockwave that slammed into the enemy!
With one strike, it was game over, an excellent move for dominating weaker opponents.
After Phantom Flash, the trajectory where Dazzling Stripe was blasted off showed the ground utterly ravaged by the slicing winds of the Hurricane, and of course, Dazzling Stripe had already completely lost its fighting capability...
"Hmph... Huhu..."
After Dazzling Stripe was incapacitated, Dragonite, who had been lying on the ground, began to slowly levitate.
Strands of black breeze wound around Dragonite, the membrane of its wings seemingly becoming one with the wind.
It wasn't flying by flapping its wings but was instead being lifted by the wind.
The eyes of Dragonite were still closed, and with the dark aura around it, it resembled a demon dragon that had emerged from hell.
"(⊙ˍ⊙) What is this..."
Sir Thousand Miles silently watched Dragonite and the Dazzling Stripe slipping down the wall.
Wasn't Dragonite behaving normally just a while ago?
A standard Tycoon Class Quick Dragon...
Although it had a higher racial limit than Dazzling Stripe, in the face of the latter being stimulated by special toxins to awaken potential comparable to Leave King, and bolstered with special footwork and punching techniques, the outcome of the battle was still uncertain.
With this Dazzling Stripe, he had already defeated innumerable Tycoon Class Tyranitar, Huge Gold Monster, Dragonite, Blood Wing Dragon, and other Quasi-gods!
However, the situation became unclear to Sir Thousand Miles as Fang Yuan's Dragonite fell under Pattern Hypnosis during the fight.
(•ิ_•ิ) This Dragonite... after falling asleep, suddenly exhibited an overpowering force surpassing a King Level?
Although Sir Thousand Miles was very experienced in battle, this was his first time witnessing something like this with Dragonite.
"Xiao Sheng!! Didn't you say..."
"I didn't say anything!"
Xiao Sheng's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the Nightmare Fast Dragon on the field.
He had analyzed the outcome already; everything was proceeding according to his analysis. How could the style of that Dragonite suddenly change at the end?!
Xiao Sheng's knowledge base suddenly failed to help him comprehend the current situation anymore.
"I knew I couldn't rely on you," his sister Little Yao said, her eyes filled with disdain.
While Sir Thousand Miles, Xiao Sheng, and Little Yao were puzzled, Mr. Fang Yuan slowly began to speak.
"This is a special mode of my Dragonite. After it falls asleep, it can awaken a 'second subconscious personality' filled with Evil Intent through the 'Sleep Talk' move. In this mode..."
"It can fight reflexively without relying on hearing or vision, perfectly sensing air flows with every part of its body..."
Mr. Fang Yuan smiled slightly, though Dragonite in its normal state could also sense the movement of the wind to fight, actually using this technique while unconscious and asleep was much more ferocious.
When conscious, Dragonite's reaction speed sensing the air flow was barely enough to adapt to King Level battles, but after falling asleep and entering Nightmare Mode, its reaction speed could surpass the King Tier.
At this moment, its life and "Soul" level had briefly ascended from that of a Quasi-god like Dragonite to the level of Phantom Elves like Darkrai.
The oppressive force Dazzling Stripe had felt was precisely for this reason.
Mr. Fang Yuan explained Dragonite's state to Sir Thousand Miles and shared information because he was very thankful to the latter.
If Mr. Fang Yuan remembered correctly, the ace of Sir Thousand Miles seemed to be three Leave Kings.
Though this Dazzling Stripe was quite powerful, being one of the stronger hands among the King Levels, it probably wasn't among Sir Thousand Miles' top three combatants.
So, the purpose of Sir Thousand Miles sending out this Pokémon was self-evident; he probably intended for Mr. Fang Yuan to experience the essence of Hanging On through the combat techniques of Dazzling Stripe.
This Dazzling Stripe must be among the top three in Sir Thousand Miles' team when it comes to using Hold On.
And through the battle just now, Mr. Fang Yuan indeed discovered some special points, but he needed to continue verifying them through battle!
"Falling asleep... a second Dark Type personality... Sleep Talk..."
Muttering Mr. Fang Yuan's explanation under his breath, Sir Thousand Miles called back Dazzling Stripe, looking at the dragon of nightmare with great surprise.
"Nightmare Mode, huh? It's my first time seeing such a training method. You're truly worthy of being Mr. Fang Yuan."
Sir Thousand Miles admiringly took out another Poké Ball, feeling some pressure.
......
Meanwhile.
"Nightmare Mode..."
Xiao Sheng and Little Yao exclaimed, clearly having heard Mr. Fang Yuan's explanation.
Xiao Sheng's face was filled with reluctance. What was this?!?
Nowhere in the textbooks... no, he had never seen or heard of it anywhere.
How could there be such a cheating mode?
To perform even stronger after being hypnotized and falling asleep??
It made no sense whatsoever.
This wasn't the Pokémon battling that he understood!
"Nightmare Mode... So what about Nightmare Mode, this time was just an accident, just let Dad wake that Dragonite up with the next Pokémon."
