As a Pokémon reporter, Viola had originally been covering the Garchomp rampage incident.
So when Ash leaped down from Prism Tower, everyone across the Kalos Region witnessed the boy disregarding his own safety to save his Pokémon.
And just as the boy fell from the several-hundred-meter-tall Prism Tower, another sudden turn of events occurred.
A figure wreathed in flames leaped into the air under the command of a man wearing a Blaziken Mask, charging straight toward the falling Ash and Pikachu.
But what Mega Blaziken and its Trainer had not expected was that just as they moved to save Ash and Pikachu, the out-of-control Garchomp atop the tower also dove down and unleashed its strongest move—Hyper Beam—at them!
Given Mega Blaziken's level and strength, blocking Garchomp's Hyper Beam should have been effortless.
But the problem was that Mega Blaziken had just caught Pikachu and Ash in its arms, and the Hyper Beam was aimed directly at its back. It had no way to defend against the attack.
"Eevee, vee..."
Just as everyone watching the television began to worry for Ash and the others' safety, an Eevee much larger than ordinary Eevee suddenly leaped into view.
The moment it appeared on screen, its body was enveloped in white light, and it quickly evolved into a Pokémon whose body was primarily pale pink and deep pink, with ribbon-like feelers resembling bows.
Sylveon, a Fairy-type Pokémon. It releases waves from its bow-like feelers that dispel hostility, using them to calm disputes.
It was said that Galar Region fairy tales told of a beautiful Sylveon that Knocked back a terrifying Dragon-type Pokémon.
"That's the special Eevee from before that could switch forms!"
Seeing Sylveon appear on screen, Viola could not help but cry out in surprise.
But what came next was even more astonishing.
