Gengar Didn't Turn Around

"Gengar, Trick Room!"

"Jiejiejie~"

Accompanied by a ghostly cry with a Buddhist air to it, Gengar appeared on the field. At the same time, the arena was covered by a multicolored cubic barrier, which then vanished in a flash.

Trick Room had been successfully deployed. Gorebyss, whose speed doubled in the rain, would now be forced to move later.

"Gengar, rapid-fire Shadow Balls!"

Gengar pressed its hands together in a Buddhist ritual. Dozens of Shadow Balls glowing with black light condensed out of thin air around it, then all flew toward Gorebyss.

It was not until the Shadow Balls were about to hit that Wallace's command slowly rang out.

Wallace smiled at Sato and calmly commanded, "Gorebyss, use Aqua Ring!"

"Miu~"

Gorebyss endured Toxic's corrosion of its body, then emitted an azure blue radiance all over.

Though it had only used a support move, the
