Jubilife Pokémon Theme Park, Battlefield.
Red's Pikachu and Darkrai were still locked in battle.
It had not been a long match, but it was fiercely paced.
In just a few minutes, the two had exchanged more than a dozen rounds of attacks.
Yet despite all those exchanges, the moves that had actually landed could be counted on one hand.
Darkrai's spreading Dark Void and stray nightmare energy had grazed Pikachu.
Meanwhile, Red's Pikachu had borrowed Ash's Counterattack Shield and given Darkrai a dose of electrotherapy with Thunderbolt.
Darkrai had also evaded the decisive Volt Tackle.
