"Tch." Liu Zihao clicked his tongue under his breath and raised his hand to recall Obstagoon, but failed. Looking onto the field, he discovered that Gengar was the reason.
Gengar's eyes were glowing. It had used Mean Look.
"You think this means I can't switch Pokémon?" Liu Zihao sneered. "Obstagoon, use Parting Shot!"
Obstagoon used Parting Shot on Gengar, lowering its Attack and Special Attack before forcibly switching out. A level 39 Gliscor took its place.
"Seize the chance! Use Toxic!"
A smug look appeared on Liu Zihao's face. "No use! My Gliscor's Ability is Poison Heal!"
Toxic hit, and Gliscor was badly poisoned!
Liu Zihao: ???
Cheng Tian looked at him as though he were an intellectually disabled child. "Who told you Skill Swap could only be used once?"
Gengar stuck its tongue out at its opponent, then used Toxic on itself!
Gengar's HP began recovering!
"Fuck! That's fucking disgusting!"
"Thanks for the compliment!"
"Use Feint Attack, then Brick Break!"
Gengar was still Dark- and Normal-type. After using Feint Attack to close in quickly, Brick Break could finish it off.
Gliscor did exactly that, but when the Gengar struck by Brick Break turned into a ridiculous-looking doll, Liu Zihao immediately realized something was wrong. "Get away from there!"
But it was already too late. Gengar shot out of the shadow beneath Gliscor's feet and unleashed Hypnosis right in its face, forcing it to sleep! Liu Zihao tried to recall Gliscor again, but Mean Look stopped him once more. Now that Gliscor was asleep and unable to use moves of its own accord, it could only wait like a lamb for the slaughter.
Cheng Tian snapped his fingers. "Try out your new move. Use Dream Eater!"
"Gengar!" Pitch-black resentment surged from Gengar, sweeping toward the fallen Gliscor in an all-engulfing
