Bug Buzz

The airborne Vivillon fell to the ground like a crashing plane, smoke billowing from its body.

Although Grass-type moves didn't deal much damage to the Bug and Flying-type Vivillon, the Solar Beam from Bellossom and Roserade was incredibly powerful!

Vivillon wasn't a particularly defensive Pokémon, so facing such an attack, taking damage was inevitable.

It seemed that Vivillon's ability changes didn't include an improvement in its defensive capabilities; there wasn't much difference from its previous state.

Lying on the ground, Vivillon weakly flapped its wings a couple of times, unable to take flight. The pain coursing through its body caused it to emit a hissing sound.

Observing the pitiful state of Vivillon, Bellossom and Roserade realized they might have gone too far. They had only intended to spar, but it seemed they hadn't held back, resulting in Vivillon's suffering.

Unlike the guilty feelings of Bellossom and Roserade, Vivillon, at this moment, was solely focused on winning. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing for it to go back on its previous boasts!

It felt deeply embarrassed.

Vivillon, lying on the ground, silently gathered its four butterfly wings and emitted a milky-white glow, as if adorning itself with a magnificent cloak.

Yuga recognized that Vivillon was using a Flying-type recovery move called "Roost." After using Roost, Flying-type Pokémon temporarily lose their Flying type and, in Vivillon's case, become solely Bug-type.

Of course, losing the Flying type didn't mean this Pokémon couldn't fly anymore. Just like Venomoth, which lacked a Flying type but could still glide gracefully.

As long as the wings were intact.

The radiance emitted by Roost made Vivillon look less battered.

Seeing Vivillon's momentum gradually recovering, Bellossom and Roserade set aside their lingering guilt.

In battle, it was a battle, even if it was just a practice match. They couldn't go easy on their opponent due to sympathy.

The Vivillon using Roost remained motionless on the ground, resembling an easy target.

Bellossom and Roserade repeated their previous tactics, unleashing the golden beams of light once more, surging and crashing towards Vivillon.

At this moment, Vivillon suddenly lifted its head, which had been lowered, and its black eyes momentarily turned bright red.

Immediately after, a yellow-green halo appeared around Vivillon.

The halo kept expanding, and as it swept across the dual Solar Beams from Bellossom and Roserade, the massive golden beams suddenly sputtered and vanished halfway.

Just as Yuga and Bellossom and Roserade were perplexed by what was happening, Vivillon lightly fluttered its wings a few times.

However, it didn't take flight with its wing flaps; instead, the white light attached to its wings dissipated with these slight flutters.

Vivillon's use of Roost had ended!

All the injuries on Vivillon's body from earlier disappeared without a trace. Although it hadn't fully recovered to its prime, it was no longer significantly affected.

Vivillon didn't take to the skies again due to its wounds healing. It stood up from the ground, its large butterfly wings trailing behind it.

Buzz, buzz, buzz...

In the astonished gaze of Yuga, Vivillon rapidly vibrated its wings.

The speed of Vivillon's wing vibrations was incredibly fast. At this moment, it no longer looked like a butterfly but more like a buzzing bee.

With the vibrations of Vivillon's wings, the entire training field filled with intense Bug Buzz, and concentric waves of sound began spreading from Vivillon's location.

The deafening Bug Buzz seemed as though it could rupture eardrums, causing a pounding headache.

Not only Yuga but also Bellossom, Roserade, and the trainers who were training their Pokémon here instinctively covered their ears.

For Bellossom and Roserade within the range of the Bug Buzz, the sensation was most pronounced.

They felt like their bodies were being torn apart by the sound, their heads spinning, and their movements becoming unnaturally sluggish.

They wanted to launch an attack on Vivillon, but every time they tried to gather energy for a move, it dissipated within Vivillon's Bug Buzz.

Pain! It was incredibly painful!

Bellossom and Roserade held their heads in agony, crouching on the ground. The grassy terrain created by Roserade on the battlefield slowly receded and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Is there anything specific you'd like to know or discuss about this part of the text?

At this moment, Yuga truly realized that Vivillon, having metamorphosed into the Butterfly King, had seen its Bug-type powers greatly enhanced.

Previously, Vivillon primarily used Flying-type moves, and relatively rarely employed its Bug-type moves, despite its main attribute being Bug.

As the Bug Buzz continued, Yuga felt not only dizzy but also struggled to think clearly. Breathing itself became a challenge.

For Yuga, it was difficult, but for Bellossom and Roserade on the battlefield, it was even worse.

Both of them were Grass-type Pokémon, vulnerable to Bug-type moves, and they felt like their strength was draining away.

Roserade fared slightly better because of its Poison type, which gave it some resistance to Bug-type moves.

But for the pure Grass-type Bellossom, it was grim. It felt like its very blood was resonating with Vivillon's Bug Buzz, ready to burst out of its body at any moment.

"That's enough, Vivillon! Stop it!" Yuga couldn't help but cover his head and shouted at Vivillon.

The Bug Buzz abruptly ceased, and Yuga suddenly felt the world becoming much clearer. He had never experienced anything quite like it; the Bug Buzz was oppressively intense.

Bellossom and Roserade, on the ground, felt like they had been given a new lease on life.

Vivillon, having halted the Bug Buzz, flew up into the air and looked down at Bellossom and Roserade below. It had initially intended to flaunt its power but was greeted with Yuga's expression of relief.

"Vivillon! Vivillon! Vivillon..."

Vivillon had no time to show off; it quickly flew to Yuga's side, displaying a concerned expression.

As for its two partners on the battlefield, Vivillon simply ignored them; after all, they had looked down on it earlier.

"I'm fine, but let's use these indiscriminate area-of-effect moves sparingly from now on. At least until you can control them better," Yuga advised Vivillon.

At this moment, Yuga's complexion was still somewhat pale, and he didn't look quite well.

"Vivillon... Vivillon..."

Vivillon nodded apologetically, realizing it had been too impulsive.

Yuga released Florges from her Poké Ball and said to her, "Florges, use Heal Bell."

Seeing Yuga's pale face, Florges felt deep concern and shot a stern look at her little sister.

Vivillon, feeling guilty, took a step back.

Florges opened her small mouth, and a gentle and enchanting melody flowed from it.

Everyone on the field, both humans and Pokémon, felt their spirits being healed by Florges's Heal Bell. The dizziness and ringing in their ears caused by the Bug Buzz dissipated.

Meanwhile, Mr. Tsuruta went through all the information he had gathered about Yuga.

After some contemplation, he decided to make a call to his younger brother.

"Is it Shimizu Yuga? Hmm, if you think it's okay, you can leave it to him. It should be fine."

The voice of Mr. Tsuruta's younger brother came from the other end of the phone.

Elder Brother: "You know him?"

Younger Brother: "Sort of."

"I'll think it over some more."

Mr. Tsuruta remained silent for a moment, then hung up the phone.

Apologies for the delay in updating, here are the two chapters from yesterday.
