Light of Ruin radiated an intense purple glow, engulfing the charging Aegislash.
The Light of Ruin unleashed by Mega Diancie was immensely powerful—the strongest Fairy-type finishing move. With the same-type power boost, it dealt considerable damage even to Aegislash, who resisted it.
Aegislash was currently in Attack Forme, leaving its defenses extremely weak. After being struck by the Light of Ruin fired from the Eternal Flower, it lost three-fifths of its HP outright.
Yet Aegislash seemed unable to feel pain. Even as Light of Ruin inflicted devastating damage, it reached Mega Diancie and unleashed its accumulated Steel-type energy, slashing its hard blade into Mega Diancie's body.
The powerful Steel-type attack sent Mega Diancie flying back more than ten meters before it stopped, costing it two-fifths of its HP.
Mega Diancie's body was made of the hardest diamonds. Aegislash's strike was powerful, but Mega Diancie's defenses were far from weak.
That slash failed to leave a wound on Mega Diancie.
"How did you know about Aegislash's Ability?!"
Ye Tian stared at Zhang Cheng in shock. He had never expected his opponent to attack when faced with a Steel-type move, meeting Aegislash head-on.
Under normal battle strategy, when faced with a move that dealt quadruple damage, Trainers would almost always defend first and avoid taking the attack head-on.
That was also the best response. Yet Zhang Cheng had done the exact opposite, choosing to counterattack with a move that was not very effective.
This was not a play a top Trainer would make. If one did, there had to be a reason.
Just as in this situation, once Zhang Cheng's decision to attack yielded results, Ye Tian immediately realized something was wrong.
Zhang Cheng clearly understood Aegislash's Ability. That was why he had attacked while Aegislash's defenses were weak during its own
