"Alright... hand over Zoroark and Zorua, and maybe I'll spare your lives!"

Kodai's lips curled into a cold smile. The feeling of having everything under his control was intoxicating.

"Okay, since you've said so..." Marcus lowered his gaze, seemingly resigned to his fate.

"That's more like it..." Kodai's smile grew wider.

Marcus turned around, exposing his back to the opponent, and walked over to Whitney.

"Marcus..." Whitney looked at him pitifully, her large eyes filled with complex emotions.

Marcus's lips twitched slightly. He said nothing, meeting Zoroark's fox eyes with his gaze: "Go. Otherwise, the toxins in your bodies will kill you."

"Zorua..." Zorua looked at Marcus pitifully, its small paws clutching his pants.

Marcus rubbed its head and looked at Zoroark.

The latter nodded, bit down on Zorua, and slowly walked towards Kodai.

Rustle, rustle...

The fox's paws made faint sounds on the grass, and Kodai's smile became increasingly unrestrained.

After all, he intended to use Zoroark to achieve his goals, and it would be best if it obediently complied.

Seeing Zoroark approach him, his tense state of mind finally relaxed.

Marcus, who had been observing his expression, suddenly roared out: "Now! Lopunny, use Baton Pass! Miltank, Giga Impact!!!"

"Hmm?!!"

Kodai's face changed. Before he could react, the Lopunny that had just fallen disappeared, and from another patch of grass, a Lopunny leaped up. The starlit Baton Pass it was holding was tossed into the air.

The next moment, the mottled Poke Ball in Whitney's hand opened. The old Gym Leader's Miltank opened its mouth and caught the Baton Pass, while simultaneously glowing with six rays of light indicating increased Attack, Special Attack, Defense, Special Defense, and Speed!

Ability level increased by 6 stages, attribute amplification by 400%!!

Its hooves stomped heavily on the ground, causing fine cracks to spread out. Miltank's round body seemed to have transformed into a cannonball at this moment. A spiraling wave of air condensed in front of it, charging forward with terrifying power!!

"Pfft... Are you kidding me? Using a Normal-type move against my Ghost-types??"

Kodai sneered. However, before he could continue mocking, Miltank's belly had already collided with Mismagius and Shuppet.

"Kya—!!!"

The two Pokemon shrieked simultaneously, then were sent flying by Miltank. Their already ethereal bodies became semi-transparent, and they fainted on the spot!

Miltank's momentum didn't decrease. It made a small arc and leaped again, charging towards the two Scizor.

"Boom—!!!"

Undoubtedly, facing Miltank amplified to its limit, and already injured by Zoroark, they were instantly smashed into the ground and lost their ability to battle.

"You!!! How could... Ugh!"

Kodai couldn't finish his sentence. From the tree behind him, Slakoth had already leaped down and knocked both of them out with a punch each.

"Surprise, motherfucker!"

"Slakoth!" The little guy sat on Kodai's head, grabbing his hair and repeatedly slapping him....

"Slap, slap, slap..."

In just a few moments, Kodai's face was a mess...

"You, hoh ith thith pothible!!" Kodai stared intently at Marcus, roaring incoherently.

"Miltank's ability is Scrappy, you see~..." Marcus smiled.

Scrappy: Normal-type and Fighting-type moves can hit Ghost-type Pokemon. It is also unaffected by Intimidate.

Ignoring Kodai's roars, Marcus picked up the Indeedee under the tree, and simultaneously sent out Dolliv and Lopunny to treat their injuries.

"Marcus, you're amazing!" Whitney, who had been teary-eyed, also cast aside her sorrow and ran to Marcus's side with a giggle, planting a kiss on his cheek.

"..." Kodai twitched a couple of times, almost suffocating on the spot... So this little girl, who looked innocent and naive, was also faking it?

"Zorua, Zorua~!" Zorua jumped off its mother's back and came to Marcus's feet, looking overjoyed.

Marcus picked up the little guy and dotingly pinched its small face: "Well done, little one..."

"Zorua~! (Of course! <(￣︶￣)>)"

Glancing at the pig-headed Kodai, Marcus's lips curved into his signature smile: "You want to know why?"

Hearing this, Kodai stopped howling. He was very confused. He had clearly seen the future scenario, so why couldn't he prevent any of it from happening?

As if seeing through his thoughts, Marcus pouted: "Foresight isn't omnipotent... especially not your kind, a useless ability that acts up intermittently...

Besides, what you just foresaw was just my first layer..."

Kodai: "???"

He instinctively asked: "What layer are you on?"

"I'm on the fifth layer..." Marcus spread his hands helplessly, counting on his fingers one by one: "The first layer was using Zoroark and Zorua's Illusion ability to create the scene of Lopunny and Indeedee attacking by surprise, making you think the plan succeeded. Naturally, you'd relax your guard...

Then I just needed to use my acting skills to stall for time... When you relaxed your guard, the Lopunny, which had already been amplified, used Baton Pass to transfer its boosts to the Gym-level Miltank. Sweeping away your few rotten fish and shrimp would naturally be easy...

This is the second layer.

Of course, to be safe, I thought it would be more reliable to just attack the Trainer directly, so Slakoth would sneak up behind you and give you a punch each, along with a makeover punch...

This is the third layer."

Marcus said, glancing at the pig-headed Kodai: "Looks like it worked quite well..."

"As for the fourth layer... Indeedee, you can remove Trick Room and Psychic Terrain..."

"Indeedee~..." From the grass beside them, Indeedee walked out with a smile. At the same time, the surrounding light shifted subtly. Clearly, to prevent Kodai and his companion from escaping, Marcus had made meticulous arrangements...

"...." Kodai was speechless, cold sweat streaming down his face...

Wait, wasn't I supposed to be able to foresee the future?

Not only did you predict all my moves, but you also fought against the air, creating four layers of backup plans???

Damn it, even the hidden folders on my computer aren't as well-hidden as you!!

At this moment, Kodai had begun to doubt his life...

Marcus smiled slightly, appreciating his current expression...

As for Foresight, no one could say for sure. He naturally prepared more backup plans.

Actually, he also hid a fifth layer...

A Normal-form Zoroark might be eroded by Ghost energy... So what if he used a morphing device to change it into its Hisuian form, which is Normal/Ghost-type?

Even if Kodai managed to break through the first four layers, it wouldn't matter...

After all, Zoroark was already at his feet... Throw a morphing device over, and it would immediately stand up and give him a good hit...

You know, the Normal/Ghost typing completely dominates the opponent's pure Ghost-types...
