"Now! Use Fire Punch!"
At Yong's command, Flygon plunged from the sky. Crimson flames blazed around both claws as it clenched its fists and swung them at Roserade.
The mental discomfort slowed Roserade's reaction by a beat, but Cynthia called out just in time,
"Petal Blizzard! Stop it!"
"Rosa!"
With a sweep of both arms, masses of green leaves and petals appeared in the air, swirling and circling before closing in around Flygon!
Forced to halt its attack, Flygon swung its fists, burning the surrounding leaves and petals with Fire Punch-even the Poison Powder hidden among them!
Although the attack could do little damage to Flygon, Cynthia had achieved her goal: she had successfully bought some time.
Yong frowned.
"Beat your wings! Use Sandstorm! Blow them away!"
"Flygon!"
With a soft cry, Flygon beat its wings faster. Faint brown currents stirred the surrounding air, blowing away every leaf and petal. Then sand filled the air again, the strong winds and swirling grains gradually concealing Flygon's figure!
Cynthia furrowed her brow and swept a hand out as she gave her command,
"Energy Ball!"
"Rosa!"
Whoosh!
There it was-the lightning-fast Energy Ball!
Roserade gathered energy and released it so quickly that its Energy Ball was practically instantaneous!
Boom!
The instant visibility vanished completely, the attack slammed into Flygon!
But Sandstorm had still succeeded! The consecutive battles had long since transformed the ice field into a sand field. Although Roserade had stabilized part of it with Grassy Terrain, the remaining terrain still favored the formation of a sandstorm!
Cynthia's voice rang out again,
"Keep firing Energy Ball!"
Roserade spread both arms. Four Energy Balls formed almost simultaneously, then flew out in a chain with a sweep of its arms, heading toward its opponent's last known position!
Without a doubt, every attack missed this
