VS ANDREA VANEAU #1

AURUM BADGE, FT. Andrea Vaneau

"Cover your ears, everyone." Gwyar instructed to the public, hands moving to his ears.

And to Barron's polishing, Durindana said—

SCKKRRRRREREEEEE—!!!

An unholy sound, worse than any nails on any blackboard, thundered across the arena as the Duraludon's roar fell into a shrill, ultrasonic frequency, weakening the structural integrity of the opponent's newly polished steel.

TL;DR:
-Durindana used Metal Sound.

VS ANDREA VANEAU #1

AURUM BADGE, FT. Andrea Vaneau

The Gym Leader remained silent. Durindana herself, remained stationary despite the charging behemoth, either unwilling or unable to get out of its path.

The earth cracked and trembled beneath the steely dragon her opponent rammed into her full force, her feet digging into dirt as she was pushed back— even as her arms came to hold onto her opponent, keeping herself close as the blow rattled through her.

A rock type move shouldn't have been effective, but what did typing matter before raw force?

As the steel plates of the dragon continued to rattle loudly however, it soon became clear that there was more than just the aftermaths of a heavy blow.

The rattling became louder, faster, and shrill, like pipe bomb nearing its—

SHA-BAM!!!

TL;DR:
-Durindana took damage.
-Durindana used Metal Burst.

VS ANDREA VANEAU #1

AURUM BADGE, FT. Andrea Vaneau

The earthquake came, making the arena shudder as earth splintered and upheaved, the vibrations traveling through Durindana's frame as dirt and force reverberated within her.

The Duraludon swayed from side to side whilst leaned against the Aggron, her eyes tired.

Andrea might well end things quickly after all!

But then again, that would be boring.

So Gwyar raised his arm instead, smiling. And instead, the Duraludon began to glow— brightly.

"Durindana— Mega evolve."

A dark egg burst outwards and pushed away the Aggron, encasing the steel dragon behind its protective shell as the symbol of Mega evolution flashed... and then it began to grow, and grow, and grow, before shattering.

It was not quite on the level of a dynamax, much less gigantamax pokemon, but it certainly stood more massive than before, its dazzling silhouette leaving little doubt as to where from had humanity drawn inspiration for its skyscrapers.

A booming roar thundered across the stadium as the people stood up from their sits and roared excitedly, chanting a very... familiar hum to Gwyar.

Gwyar raised his hand in the sky once more, posing dramatically for the crowd as he gave his first direct command.

G-max

Depletion

Durindana's body glowed a bright violet before unleashing forth a massive draconic shockwave towards the Aggron.

Powerful yes, but strictly speaking ineffective against the behemoth's steel hide. But... its ability to wield Earthquake again would be severely impaired.

---

TL;DR:
-Durindana took super effective damage.
-Gwyar Mega Evolved Duraludon.
-Durindana used G-max: Depletion. Deals Dragon-type damage and reduces the PP of the last move used.

VS ANDREA VANEAU #1

AURUM BADGE, FT. Andrea Vaneau

The arena quaked as steel crashed against steel, earth splintering and flying high as power dispersed through the soil.

Durindana reeled back briefly as the shocks traversed along the length of her neck, her body rattling violently as her foot stomped and splintered the earth whilst seeking balance.

---

TL;DR:
-Durindana took damage. Durindana flinched!

VS ANDREA VANEAU #1

AURUM BADGE, FT. Andrea Vaneau

Durindana was relatively light, as far as steel types went—

But she remained nonetheless fairly tough. The opponent crashed into her from above and though her body sank into the soil, it did not bend or break.

Nor did it stop wrattling as it sustained the steel titan's weight above her head, the 'glass' running along her skyscrapper-esque form glimmering as the flood lights from above refracted off its surface—

No wait, that was just her whole body shining as it quaked.

KA-BOOOM!!!

TL;DR:
-Durindana took damage!
-Durindana used Metal Burst!

VS ANDREA VANEAU #1

AURUM BADGE, FT. Andrea Vaneau

The arena rattles as the explosion rocks the earth, whipping up a massive dust cloud.

A burst of light shone through the curtain of dust, before a concentrated blast of light cut through it, flying in the Aggron's general direction as the cloud parted.

Durindanna huffed and puffed, blasting for her attack even after her body had shrunken back to regular size.

---

TL;DR:
-Durindana returned to normal.
-Durindana used Flash Cannon!
