Ferrothorn

In fact, Yuga didn't know that the sweet fragrance on Momiji's Meganium had been specially cultivated by her. Even other Meganium couldn't compare to this one.

This is the difference between trainers and breeders.

Breeders don't rely on training to strengthen their Pokémon; it's all about their breeding knowledge. Trainers, on the other hand, focus more on training and battles, using breeding techniques as a supplement.

Under the influence of the Sweet Scent, the actions of Breloom and Torterra slowed down.

Without Torterra's influence, Meganium swung two vines and entangled Tangrowth, engaging in a tug-of-war with Breloom.

Meganium wasn't as powerful as Breloom in terms of strength, but it compensated with its weight.

With its remarkable size, Meganium and Breloom engaged in a fierce struggle, making the Tangrowth in the middle almost deformed.

Seeing this situation, Yuga shouted to Torterra on the field:

"Torterra, use Leaf Storm to disperse the Sweet Scent."

Torterra's special attack wasn't impressive, and even though Leaf Storm was a powerful move, it wouldn't deal much damage in its hands.

But what Yuga wanted wasn't Leaf Storm's attacking power, and he wasn't concerned about its side effects.

Torterra was currently confused by the Sweet Scent, its mind a bit foggy, but it still heard Yuga's command. Though its reaction was much slower, it managed to use the move.

The giant tree on Torterra's back swayed gently, and then green light continuously flickered as leaves fell from the tree.

The fallen leaves, centered around Torterra, spun continuously, creating a storm of green leaves that absorbed all the pink mist in the area.

The battlefield, previously shrouded in the Sweet Scent, suddenly cleared up.

The dazed Breloom and Torterra, who had been engaged in a tug-of-war, also regained their clarity.

Without the confusion caused by the Sweet Scent, there was no way Meganium's strength could compare to Breloom's.

Breloom tightened its legs, lowered its waist slightly, and exerted force on the vine of Tangrowth with both hands. It not only pulled the Tangrowth but also sent Meganium flying, taking Meganium and the vine along with it.

When Breloom released the vine, both Meganium and Tangrowth were affected by centrifugal force, and they were thrown out, landing right under Torterra's feet.

However, the area around Torterra was covered with Stealth Rock. As soon as these two Pokémon landed, they were attacked by countless unseen Stealth Rock.

Meganium managed to escape, enduring the pain as it rushed away, trying to get out of the range of the Stealth Rock' attacks.

But for Tangrowth, it was a different story. It had been thrown around earlier and was now feeling dizzy and disoriented. Its head was throbbing, its vision blurred, and its body was unresponsive, forced to endure the relentless attacks of the Stealth Rock.

Meganium wanted to take Tangrowth with it while escaping, but it looked at Tangrowth's condition, didn't pull it along, and had no choice but to abandon it and make a run for it.

Seeing Tangrowth so close, Torterra didn't hesitate. It launched a Stone Edge, and Tangrowth had no choice but to exit the battle.

Meganium, battered and bruised, ran out of the range of the Stealth Rock' attacks, panting heavily and beginning to recover its strength through Synthesis.

However, Breloom and Torterra wouldn't allow it to do so. They both prepared to attack Meganium, trying to prevent it from using Synthesis.

But just as Breloom was about to use its Brick Break and Torterra was readying its Stone Edge, a Ferrothorn suddenly appeared out of nowhere and intercepted both Pokémon's attacks.

Yuga was seeing a Ferrothorn in action for the first time. This Ferrothorn used Iron Defense just before intercepting the attacks from Breloom and Torterra. Its entire body now gleamed with a bright metallic sheen.

This Ferrothorn had been bred exceptionally well. After taking the combined attacks from Breloom and Torterra, it emerged completely unscathed, calmly looking at both of them with a pair of cool and collected eyes.

When Breloom's fist made contact with Ferrothorn's body, it felt as if it had been pricked by something sharp. After a moment of pain, Breloom retreated in surprise.

Ferrothorn had the Iron Barbs ability, which inflicted damage on any Pokémon that made physical contact with it.

Meanwhile, Meganium's Synthesis had concluded. Its battered body regained vitality, and the faint fragrance it naturally emitted began to spread through the air.

Since the Sunny Day Meganium had used earlier had worn off, if it weren't for Ferrothorn protecting it, Meganium wouldn't have been able to complete its Synthesis.

Ferrothorn's eyes scanned the field, and the three metal claws on its head swung, releasing Spikes one after another.

After the Spikes appeared, as soon as Breloom's feet moved slightly, it felt the painful pricks from the Spikes beneath its feet. Helplessly, it quickly jumped out of the area covered by the Spikes.

At this point, half of the battlefield was occupied by Torterra's Stealth Rock, and the other half was covered with Ferrothorn's Spikes.

Under the influence of the Spikes, Breloom, skilled in close combat, couldn't advance any further. The massive Torterra excelled in defense but not in offense, which left Yuga somewhat perplexed.

Although Ferrothorn didn't have a Flying type or Levitate ability, it could float in the air, completely unaffected by the Stealth Rock. It directly used Gyro Ball to attack Breloom.

Breloom was already injured due to the Spikes and Iron Barbs. If it was hit by Gyro Ball now, it would surely be defeated.

"Breloom, Torterra, use Dual Stone Edge."

In this critical situation, Torterra and Breloom simultaneously unleashed countless stone blades in an attempt to stop Ferrothorn's attack.

Ferrothorn, with its Steel type, have outstanding defenses, and few weaknesses, was only slightly affected by the Rock type Stone Edges, which didn't succeed in stopping the Gyro Ball.

Thanks to its excellent defense, Ferrothorn deflected all the stone blades shot at it and, to make matters even better, Meganium behind it sent Heal Pulse towards Ferrothorn.

Ferrothorn remained unscathed.

To injure Ferrothorn, which was covered in thorns, one would have to collide with it. Breloom had to dodge.

The thorns on Ferrothorn's body not only harmed those who attacked it up close but also harmed Ferrothorn's attackers in close combat.

Breloom rolled on the ground, thinking it had avoided Ferrothorn's Gyro Ball. Little did it know that the Gyro Ball changed direction with a spin and collided directly with the unresponsive Breloom.

Although the weakened Gyro Ball didn't incapacitate Breloom, Ferrothorn, with its claws on its head now in an upright position, delivered a blow to Breloom's head, causing it to collapse.
