As Chu used Surprising Speed to dodge the point blank Hydrosurge and carried on with its momentum towards Sagralia, during the time in which Axel shouted “Mock and Strike!”, Itsuki and Sagralia prepared the vines to counter the melee attack. As Chu “unleashed quick and devastating strikes”, three of the vines whipped forwards as Rook had been talking, and using Chu’s momentum against it, would wrap themselves around the Natrelmon’s right wrist (the one it lead its punches with) and drag it to the side while the other three vines latched onto its left ankle and pulled in the direction it was moving, which would be complimented by a strong whipping motion from the vines wrapped around Chu’s wrist. This combination of movements, plus the Chu’s high speed, would hopefully force it into a Team Rocket-esque launch right out of the arena, and into a nearby shop. If, somehow, Chu countered the genius manoeuvre, Sagralia would be ready with a Hydrosurge, and would fire it in an appropriate fashion given Chu’s actions (aka to be decided if you escape).

“What even are these trainers?” could be heard from the small crowd outside the arena.
