Reflect could reduce physical damage and even reflect some of the impact back.
Furthermore, while waiting for the opponent to take the field, Diancie had already used Harden to raise its defense.
Combined with its impressive base Defense stat of 150, Diancie was practically an iron fortress now.
Even Floatzel's Water-type Aqua Jet had no effect when it struck Diancie. Diancie did not so much as sway.
The sight left Jing Ru Yun stunned. How could it be that tough?
Xiao Ran, however, would not give her time to stand there in a daze. After blocking Floatzel, he immediately ordered Diancie to use Rock Tomb again.
A maze of rocks abruptly rose, trapping Diancie and Floatzel together. Fragments of broken rock struck Floatzel, drawing cries of pain.
"Floatzel! Waterfall!" Jing Ru Yun snapped out of her daze and shouted.
The roar of a waterfall rang out. Water cascaded from above, pouring into the maze formed by Rock Tomb, while Floatzel surged upstream and slammed toward Diancie.
"Diancie, Iron Defense!" Xiao Ran called calmly.
Even with a type advantage, you mere mortals have no idea how tough Diancie can be.
Harden, Reflect, Iron Defense... Even if Diancie stood still and let Floatzel attack now, Floatzel might end up exhausting itself first.
Iron Defense gave Diancie's stony body a metallic sheen. When Floatzel slammed into it with Waterfall, it was like crashing into a reinforced steel pipe.
Diancie did not budge, while Floatzel slowly slid down like a sheet of paper stuck to a wall.
"Woo..." Diancie tilted its head and looked at Floatzel. That hit was pretty strong. I almost lost my footing. Would it have been better to take a step or two back?
"Isn't this Diancie a little too tough?" Everyone exclaimed in amazement. Diancie's toughness was truly astonishing.
