The instant Eevee was lifted up, its four little legs kicked hard off the platform's edge. With Confusion assisting it, it leaped high into the air, tracing a brown arc as it descended toward the space above Whiscash.
"Eevee, Snarl!"
"Eevee!!!"
Eevee suddenly opened its mouth midair, and brown sound waves burst forth, spreading downward in a fan shape to engulf Whiscash and Walrein below.
The dark brown sound waves rippled through the air in all directions, carrying an oppressive Presence that instinctively made people uneasy.
Facing the sound-wave attack crashing down from above, Wallace smiled faintly, his voice steady and composed. "Walrein, Ice Beam. Whiscash, Whirlpool."
Icy blue light gathered in Walrein's mouth, and a slender Ice Beam shot toward the airborne Eevee like a frigid arrow.
At the same time, Whiscash's massive body spun violently in the water. Deep blue energy rapidly merged with the current, raising a rapidly spinning Water Tornado in the blink of an eye.
The Water Tornado was three or four meters wide, rising from the water's surface and completely enveloping Whiscash and Walrein.
The rotating wall of water from Whirlpool let out a low roar. When the sound waves struck it, they were weakened and scattered layer by layer, with most of them blocked outside.
The icy blue Ice Beam streaked through the air, accurately shooting toward Eevee.
Gardevoir, who had blocked Muddy Water with Psychic Barrier, lit up with blue light in her eyes. Vast psychic power surged from her body, rapidly condensing into an almost tangible pale purple energy barrier in midair.
The barrier positioned itself directly between Eevee and the Ice Beam, forming a slanted shield.
"Pssh—"
The Ice Beam slammed into the Psychic Barrier, and icy blue energy exploded at the point of impact, scattering into fine ice crystals.
