The match continued.
Tailwind subsided, and the forest had been destroyed, leaving embers that still glimmered across the ground.
Wally carefully surveyed the surroundings.
"Leave it to you! Magnezone!"
Bang!
A flash of light shot into the field.
"Vwoi!"
A deep mechanical sound rang out.
Like an alien flying saucer, Magnezone rotated its cross-shaped bolts and U-shaped magnets, floating in midair free from gravity.
"Wally's fourth Pokémon—Magnezone, an Electric- and Steel-type! With the first half nearing its end, can he turn the tide and recreate his early advantage!?"
Flobo shouted.
The audience belatedly realized that the match was almost halfway through, and two of Wally's Pokémon had already fallen to Baimu.
So fast!
Many people sighed, unaware that it was merely an illusion caused by being too engrossed in the battle.
On Baimu's side.
Platinum Silver Mountain's miracle-working Blissey entered the field.
"Happy!"
It stepped across the ash-gray ground, sending tiny sparks flying around its body, yet it remained calm and composed.
Its extreme adaptability to harsh environments, born of its Special Defense and endurance, was one of the main reasons Pokémon like Blissey were valued by medical workers.
It locked eyes with Magnezone in the sky.
Baimu: "Sunny Day."
Wally: "Volt Switch!"
"Happy!"
Blissey raised its little hands, and invisible ripples gathered the brilliant sunlight.
Everyone suddenly felt the world darken before dazzling radiance descended over the field as though a god had arrived.
"Vwoi!"
Magnezone emitted a deep hum. Its U-shaped magnets stopped spinning as it flew toward Blissey, firing several flashing rings of electric current ahead of it!
Sizzle!!
Electricity crackled explosively.
Having finished Sunny Day, Blissey hurriedly tried to dodge, but the electric rings flew too quickly and attacked in a triangular formation, sealing off its surroundings.
Too broad and round to use Minimize in time,
