Whips had to admit, he was surprised to see how well Demon took the hit. Granted he was hoping one Brick Break wouldn't be enough to bring the fellow dragon to his knee, still, it was impressive to see the Hydreigon bounce back from such a hit. There was no two ways about it, Demon was truly living up to his name, but could one expect anything less from a Hydreigon?
It also became clear that the two learned from their mistakes, as they immediately went back to long range attacks, only this time, they weren't pulling any punches. They watched as Demons three mouths open wide, draconic energy seeping from the jaws, and then throwing a powerful Dragon Pulse at Whips. The attack seemed to burn the air around it as it rocketed towards Whips, the super effective attack was getting closer incredibly quick, and they didn't have a solid counter against an attack of that speed.
"D-damn it, WHIPS GET OUT OF THE WAY", Curt yelled to the Dragonite. It was a simple command, but Curt didn't have anything else up his sleeve at the moment. Whips attempted to move out of the way of the attack, but Whips was not a very fast Dragonite, at the attack ended up scorching his left arm and knocking a good number of scales off in the process. Whips held himself in the air, but his left arm was noticeably damaged as the dragon instinctively grabbed it. Whips glared at Demon, not so much in anger, it was more of a "I can't believe I let you get that good of a hit on me" sort of look.
Just then, they began to hear whizzing as what looked like several Energy Balls were charging up and looked to be heading towards Demon! Thankfully, Embertail was their to quickly intercept them, as he leaped into the air just as Leaf fired them and, with a combination of his great speed and Dragon Claw. The Venasuar was definitely quick, but speed was Embertail specialty, he proved that by deflecting most of the Energy Balls, leaving Demon to easily avoid the few the remained. Whips turned and glared a Leaf and Leafred, furious with their attempt at interrupting their fight, but lucky for them, Embertail caught his attention.
"DON'T WORRY, I'LL TALK TO THEM, JUST FOCUS ON YOUR FIGHT, REMEMBER, I'M ROOTING FOR YOU BUDDY"!, Embertail yelled to his friend. Whips gave the Lizard Pokemon a quick nod before turning to Demon to make sure he wasn't inconvenienced by the interruption. Embertail himself turned to face Leafred and Leaf, he still had his typical smile, but his eye's showed a level of worry and hurt about the two's actions.
"Listen, I understand what you're trying to do, but right now, this is an honorable fight between two dragons, and dragons take a breach of honor very seriously, believe me I know", Embertail said, his cheery, goofy demeanor returning, "besides, you should have more faith in Whips and Curt! I know Dragonites look cute and cuddly, but believe me, they're incredibly strong, and Curt ain't a bad trainer, so just sit back and watch from now, believe me, they're far from done!" With that said, Embertail sat back down and returned his attention to the to dragons battle.
"WHIPS, CAN YOU STILL USE YOUR ARM?", Curt cried to the Dragonite. If Whips' arm had sustained a serious injury, he might have to call the match soon. Thankfully, Whips' functions in his arm seemed fine as he moved it about, though if the small wince he gave was any indication, it was not without some pain. It looked like they were going to try to avoid use of that arm this fight. Still, they still needed to get close to Demon if they were going to win, they couldn't beat him using long range attacks, where Demon had they clear advantage. But so long as Demon could keep them at bay this Dragon Pulse, their was little they could do to get close to him without blindly charging at him, and they had nothing that could overpower an attack from a Hydreigon....but maybe they had something that could negate it's attacks!
"WHIPS, ADVANCED ON DEMON WITH IRON HEAD, AS FAST AS YOU CAN!", Curt advised his teammate. Whips got the picture as he straightened himself up as his skull began to sheen a bright grey. He pulled himself back and charged towards the Hydregion as fast as he could, using Iron Head as a shield against another potential Dragon Pulse as much as an offensive attack. It was another risky move, but when fighting a Pseudo-Legendary like Demon you have to take risks to achieve victory, even if you yourself are a Pseudo-Legendary Pokemon like Whips!
"You know, I just realized how weird it is for you guy's to be interacting with a talking Pokemon, most people start asking questions, but I guess with all the chaos it sort of slipped your minds, huh", Embertail said to Leafred and Leaf, a light, chuckle in his voice before noticing someone stirring near by.
"Oh, hey there, aren't you that Espeon that's with that guy, why don't you hang over here with us?", Embertail said, beckoning the Sun Pokemon over.
