[attr="class","textbox"]Standing side by side, Watson and Toto each raised a hand to the sky.
Life Dew showered the space between them, easing the worst of their pains. A rainbow stretched out through the mists, seeming to connect the two together. If only Isaac had been there to see how far two of his finest had come.[break][break]
Enraged, Nero hefted a foot high, but this time Watson was ready. He charged, not away from Nero's foot but instead towards it. The force of an
Earthquake came crashing down, only to be parried back by a rising arc from Watson's
Aqua Tail. Even as he was smashed into the ground, he refused to drop his shuddering tail, knowing he was the only thing keeping Toto from getting hurt.[break][break]
It was important that he hung in there. Otherwise, the
Water Spout that followed would have been so much weaker.[break][break]
Two blasts of water, stronger than any Toto had mustered up before, shot through the air with enough force to send Nero flying. Watson, not wanting to miss his chance, hopped into one of the streams to ride it onward. Once he'd caught up to the flying Nero, he hopped out of it, sending the Krookodile crashing back to earth with a momentum-driven
Aqua Tail.[break][break]
Fissures spread in his wake, and this time they weren't from any Earthquake. When Watson landed, it was atop a near-motionless Krookodile.[break][break]
Watson rasped in celebration, prepared to celebrate with a little victory dance. However, before he could, Toto held up a finger. They needed to make sure. An Aura Sphere, grey with steely determination, danced at the tip of Toto's finger. He let it build power, then pointed it towards Nero to finish the job.[break][break]
Red claws wrapped around Isaac's gut confirmed the worst. The canny old bastard had been playing possum. Nero, knowing he could never avoid an Aura Sphere, decided to do the next best thing. He smooshed Watson into it at point blank range, intercepting it before it could swerve out of Watson's way.[break][break]
Toto sank into a defensive stance, but even he wasn't prepared for how quickly Nero came running out from the smoke. An
Iron Tail smashed Toto's thigh, buckling his leg and leaving him wide open for a
Darkest Lariat to the throat. The onslaught was relentless, one spinning technique flowing into the next, time and time again.[break][break]
To think, Nero had resorted to stealing Watson's own Spin Cycle.[break][break]
On the final strike, he zigged instead of zagging. His
Fire Fang sank around Toto's gut, hefting him airborne just long enough to suplex him into the ground. It looked like, with just one more solid strike, it would be lights out for Toto.[break][break]
Or perhaps, with two
Dark Pulses to the face, it was lights out for Nero.[break][break]
Krookodile eye membranes were adapted to harsh desert light, blotting out as much sun as they could. The flash of pure darkness more night-adapted Pokemon could see through was enough to leave Nero completely blinded. He staggered back, trying his damndest to take in what little light the surrounding tiki torches could spare.[break][break]
It left him wide open for the original Spin Cycle. Low Kick. Aqua Tail. Shadow Claw. Rinse, wash, repeat, over and over again, until finally Watson closed in for the finale. He lunged for Nero's bad leg,
Ice Fangs sinking into the ankle.[break][break]
As they found their target, Watson's body started to glow . . .
