With a flick of its tail, Electivire released Thunder Wave the instant it struck Gengar.
But Gengar was even faster. Before Thunder Wave could hit, it had already slipped into the shadows, severing its connection to Electivire's tail.
The arena fell silent once more, and Lu Ze frowned.
Gengar slipping into the shadows was different from using Phantom Force.
In theory, Gengar could remain hidden in the shadows for a very long time.

But Electivire using Discharge in the middle of the field would inevitably leave blind spots.
In an arena like this...
He had to admit that Agatha's design was indeed highly favorable for Ghost-type Pokémon.

Lu Ze suddenly thought of something. If Gengar was
