Due to this exit, the win went to Team Valor.Īrlo hesitated to continue the battle once two of his Pokémon had fainted without taking down any of Candela’s. After two of Arlo’s Pokémon fainted, the Team GO Rocket Leader fled from the battle.
With a quick exchange of nods between the opponents, the battle began. Did Arlo hear about the previous two battles from Cliff and Sierra? As Candela approached the Ponyta field where she’d last seen the Team GO Rocket Leader she was looking for, Arlo emerged from the shadows, apparently having been lying in wait. The Team Valor Leader had an idea of where to find Arlo, and headed back to the Ponyta field where she had most recently seen him.Taking Willow’s words of wisdom to heart, Candela channeled all her fiery passion-along with what she’s learned from her fellow team leaders-into strategizing, resulting in a near-flawless battle tactic. While retreating, Sierra threatened that this was not the end and by far not their last battle.Ĭandela was ready to face Team GO Rocket Leader Arlo and was prepared for battle. The Team GO Rocket Leader said that she and Spark were now even and that she’d taken pity on the unprepared team leader by going easy on him this time. Sierra was clearly frustrated by Spark’s victory and quickly dismissed it. The battle was intense and almost ended in a tie, but Spark outmaneuvered Sierra and won the battle.
With Poké Balls in hand, Spark called out to the Team GO Rocket Leader, “Let’s battle!” Despite being startled and appearing slightly annoyed by the Team Instinct Leader’s challenge, Sierra accepted. Ready to redeem Team Instinct and defend innocent Pokémon from being turned into Shadow Pokémon, Spark used the Rocket Radar and discovered Sierra at a nearby PokéStop. Blanche left the battle feeling sure that Cliff was planning to set up a new hideout to continue Team GO Rocket’s mission. While this battle was a clear win, Cliff retreated in anger, saying that Team GO Rocket will never be defeated. The battle ended quickly, with Blanche as the victor. Team GO Rocket Leader Cliff, despite having incredibly strong Shadow Pokémon, chose to use all his shields too early in the battle, leaving his defenses wide open in the late game.Team Mystic Leader Blanche, utilizing amazing accuracy, took the battle with a clean and effortless strategy and secured the win with all Pokémon remaining.Cliff gave another warning, but this time, Blanche was not going to back down. The radar led the Team Mystic Leader back to the site of that first meeting. After Blanche and Cliff’s first meeting and messages challenging each other to battle, Blanche used the Rocket Radar to track Cliff’s location.
