Analytic Ability and Lock-On Combination Technique

Once the Ground-type energy reached Manectric's surroundings, a vast stretch of ground instantly turned into a flowing sea of sand. The quicksand spun rapidly, generating a powerful suction that dragged Manectric's body in!

"Awoo!" Manectric struggled desperately, but the mud on its face had yet to be cleared away. Unable to see where it was going, the more it struggled, the deeper it sank.
