Cabot looked off at the stands and noticed Pleo was already enthusiastically cheering him on. He raised his thumb at the young Lugia, before turning towards Leg and stepping forward with a determined smile.
"Hey there, Leg! I'm glad you were willing to fight us like this!" the Rampardos beamed. "I guess we've never really talked all that much before, but battles are a way to get to know each other after all! Let's give it all we got!"
Not long after he said that, Incineroar kicked off the match and the battle had officially begun. Before he or his teammates could do anything, Leg sank into the shadows and rose back up with three lookalike dolls of them. Cabot looked at them puzzledly for a moment, before he, Starr, and Brisa quickly decided on what to do. Whether Leg would use those dolls to harm them in some way, or simply use them as a shield, they had to go fast. The Rampardos grabbed a seed from his bag and hastily wolfed it down.
Cabot ate a Violent Seed!
Cabot felt his strength growing and didn't hesitate to strike. He motioned his arm forward as several large boulders appeared above the Rampardos doll in flashes of light, before swiftly raining down upon it.
Cabot used Shining Rockfall!
The glowing rocks burst apart and sand began to wildly swirl around the arena, prompting Cabot to shoot Leg an eager smirk. Noticing Brisa and Starr had both already attacked, now was as good as any to try and attack Leg herself. Wisps of darkness formed around his arms as he braced himself.
"Lemme show you a new trick I picked up while in the Voidlands!"
Cabot used Umbral Annihilation! It chained into Void Meteor!
Large, blue meteors trailing darkness materialized in the sky above Cabot and were fired towards Leg. The Rampardos could feel the shadows rise, and unlike with his Cranidos body, his scales now took on a combination of black and indigo, prompting Cabot to briefly inspect his new, shadowified look.
"
Not bad," he murmured to himself, before his now yellow eyes quickly snapped back to Leg.
