Borne of Caution (Pokemon Isekai)

[Protosoul]

Given the physical/special divide and how obscenely tanky Blissey is to special attacks, ironically Sceptile is a better choice than Ninetails regardless.

Blissey can facetank a Focus Blast but not a well-placed Brick Break.

Norman planned this quite well.

Even if he loses, after putting off a fairly even fight against two of the toughest trainers around, he's gonna get a boost to his reputation.

With how well Slaking has been putting pressure on Sceptile and Marshtomp even with Blissey practically half-asleep, people are gonna be afraid of this guy.

Sceptile was already strong enough to face Pokémon approaching Elite Four tier before he evolved, and with how much stronger he grew in the Dragon Crater, I imagine most trainers watching are slightly scared by the fact they could not see Sceptile when he was moving, and that Slaking managed to grab him anyway.

Tbf, they can sometimes facetank that, too. They may have almost no Defense, but the sheer quantity of HP they have, combined with Recover or Softboiled? It's not a position they like to be in, but it sometimes works, if you're just waiting for Poison or Burn to finish your opponent off. Naturally, you'll be stuck healing yourself every turn, so you can't actually KO such an opponent yourself, after all...
