With the combined efforts of Abra and Togepi, these Krabby couldn't cause them any trouble.
After the Sweet Fragrance, several waves of Wild Pokémon were attracted.
But they were undoubtedly defeated by them.
However, as the fragrance of Sweet Fragrance spread, more and more Wild Pokémon gathered here, and gradually some more powerful Wild Pokémon also appeared.
In this situation, Beedrill naturally joined the battle.
And the addition of Beedrill had an obvious impact on the entire situation, adding the strongest attack to this previously somewhat lacking combination.
Moreover, with Togepi's assistance and Abra's Psychic coordination, Beedrill mostly didn't need to worry about defense and could completely rely on its speed and attack advantage to perform freely.
This was the first team battle for Natsuhiko's three Pokémon, but the effect was obvious.
More and more Pokémon appeared from the sea, but not a single one could break through their defense line and get near the glass bottle.
And in this situation, the happiest wasn't Beedrill and company, but rather the Sharpedo on the side.
Watching these Pokémon fall under Beedrill's attack, Sharpedo was one happy camper.
Building its joy on the misery of others, Sharpedo achieved it.
However.
Slowly, the situation changed again.
A group of Tentacruel and Tentacool were drawn to the coast by the Sweet Fragrance.
Led by three Senior-level Tentacruel, and dozens of Tentacool.
It should be a relatively powerful group nearby this sea area.
Seeing the appearance of Tentacruel, the three Pokémon also felt the pressure.
Natsuhiko squinted his eyes.
"What happened before can only be considered a trial; now it's time to test if the tactics are reasonable."
Three Senior-level, along with unevenly matched Excellence and Qualified levels, posed quite a challenge for Beedrill, which was the only one at Senior level, with Abra and Togepi both at Excellence level.
Beedrill and company's advantage was their coordination and the cumulative boosting effects from previous battles.
The opponent's advantage was their sheer strength and numbers.
Without any exchange or intimidation, the attacking Tentacruel took the initiative to strike, and the battle was about to begin.
Buzzz——
Beedrill vibrated its wings, leaving traces of golden lines, stirring up a Tailwind while spinning rapidly to create a Shield of Retribution, blocking the Tentacruel's acid attack instantly.
The sticky purple liquid scattered across the beach, the highly corrosive acid left pits of varying depths on the sand, exuding a foul stench.
Beedrill's unique defense left the Tentacruel and Tentacool momentarily stunned.
Their normally potent acidic attack was usually the best way to deal with enemies, and after a round of acid, even if the opponent doesn't lose their combat ability, it would still erode their skin and sharply lower their Special Defense.
And at that moment of their hesitation, Beedrill launched a counterattack.
Togepi wiggled its fingers, casting a Secret Power transformed Telekinesis to cover a whole area, the activation of Celestial Grace Trait slowing down many Tentacruel and Tentacool.
"Abra, play Beedrill." Natsuhiko timely gave a command.
Play was the first Psychic-type technique that Natsuhiko got for Abra, learned since the Netherworld, and now it could be considered a start.
In one-on-one battles, it's hard to be effective, but in such a group battle, because of companion's interference, there's no worry about exposing weaknesses.
Play: Assume the target, making its trait the same as the target's.
Abra's original trait was Magic Defense, and with the execution of the "Play" technique, Abra's trait became Sniper.
Because of lack of proficiency, the release was rather slow, but Togepi's Secret Power slowed down the opponents, giving Abra the time needed.
Facing the Water and Poison-type Tentacruel and Tentacool, the Bug and Poison-type Beedrill didn't have the advantage in terms of attributes, and it actually allowed Abra's Psychic abilities to have a stronger effect.
Role reversal.
Considering the actual situation of the opponent and one's capability, Abra took over the main attack role from Beedrill.
Even though it was only an Excellence level Pokémon.
But with Psychic Arena, meditation, Sniper trait, and Togepi's support, not to mention the special pink fragment acquired from Agatha, in terms of attack power alone, it wasn't inferior to an ordinary Senior level Pokémon.
And Beedrill then transformed from the main attacker role to a pure finisher.
This is the strong point of a nascent lineup.
The problem of insufficient strength can be compensated by teamwork.
"Abra!"
Abra lived up to everyone's expectations, bravely taking on the responsibility.
Sitting cross-legged in the air, its hands gently stirred the Buddha Beads, the psychic powers burst out, the Mental Shock crossed a long distance hitting one of the Tentacool.
The target was clear, to clean out the small ones first.
Bang!
A low muffled groan, that Tentacool didn't even have time to react before its eyes rolled back, sinking into the water.
"Glug!!"
Seeing their kin fall, the Tentacruel exploded into action.
Whoosh——
As they moved, the water split to the sides, even carrying a wave, rolling towards the beach.
Yet Abra and company didn't panic due to the other side's offensive.
Rallying its psychic energy multiple times, every Mental Shock strike meant another Tentacool fell, in the blink of an eye, half of the dozens of Tentacool were down.
Togepi had already bestowed Prayer, Mysterious Guardian, Lucky Spell, and other supportive techniques upon Abra.
A classic two-support-one tactic.
The Tentacruel closest to Abra rushed forward, riding the wave, a huge Poison Needle in front glowing purple, the Poison Strike aimed directly at Abra's frail body.
This was the one that caused them heavy losses.
"Cha!"
However, Togepi timely let out a sound, bursting with brilliance, the "Look at Me 咩" technique successfully altered Tentacruel's attack target.
Seizing the instant Tentacruel changed direction, Abra launched a close-range Mental Shock hitting its relatively vulnerable back, receiving Tentacruel's pained cries and a more violent attack.
But in the next second.
Buzzz——
A light brush of golden arc, Beedrill's Deadly Needle Stab combined with Sniper trait, in the moment Tentacruel was consumed by anger just wanting to attack.
Pick and slash upwards.
Accompanied by a faint glow emanating from its body, completed the finishing task.
Togepi's crisis was dissolved.
Having defeated one Tentacruel, the other two reached simultaneously, sensing the enormous threat from Abra.
Only.
Woosh!
Before they could strike, Abra vanished from the original spot.
Instant Movement appeared behind them.
Quickly turning the Buddha Beads in its hand, with thoughts racing, a Mental Shock was launched again.
This time, Abra successfully activated the Sniper trait effect, coupled with multiple amplification, and the Senior-level Tentacruel couldn't withstand the attack, instantly being slain.
Excellence-level slaying Senior-level!
Not only was it attribute restraint but also a perfect expression of cooperation.
"Cha!"
Well done, little fox!
Togepi clenched its tiny fists, casting "Try Again" on the only remaining Tentacruel.
The provoked Tentacruel couldn't change its strategy, had to execute the previous move again, but unfortunately, it had not a single opponent in sight.
Bang!
Ka!
Abra attacked, Beedrill reaped, without resistance being brought down again.
Henceforth.
The three Senior-level Tentacruel were defeated under the cooperation of Abra, Beedrill, and Togepi, Natsuhiko's appropriate command and overall tactical deployment.
Even the remaining few Tentacool couldn't even manage to escape.
And while their focus was on dealing with Tentacruel and Tentacool, a special Pokémon was also attracted.
Not because of Sweet Fragrance, but due to the gathering of a large number of fish and Water-type Pokémon in the area.
