He hadn't sent out Avalugg? He'd chosen Glalie instead?
Yong rubbed his chin, puzzled by Mr. Wulfric's choice of Pokémon.
Neither Glalie nor Sylveon had a type advantage over the other, but Glalie's ability to learn Steel-type moves still made it a threat to Sylveon.
Although Sylveon could learn a few Fighting-type moves, those posed only a limited threat to Glalie.
They simply didn't deal enough damage.
Sure enough, after a moment's consideration, Miss Matisse stuck to her usual cautious approach...
She recalled Sylveon once again and sent out Mr. Mime!
The humanoid Mr. Mime had already secured a victory for its team with a winning combination of Drain Punch and Fire Punch! Both moves happened to threaten Glalie, too! It also had a talent for creating Magic Mirrors, allowing it to seal off space!
Mr. Mime had absolutely no fear of its opponent's Ice-type moves.
Sure enough, once the match began, Glalie and Mr. Wulfric found themselves on the back foot.
The Magic Mirrors spread out again, but with its higher Speed stat, Mr. Mime chose not to activate Trick Room this time. Instead, it used the Magic Mirrors to defend against its opponent's Freezing Breath and steadily restrict Glalie's movement, all while firing Psybeam to put mental pressure on its opponent and induce illusions...
However, Glalie was no Cryogonal...
It enjoyed fighting more than Cryogonal did, had stronger desires, and possessed a far more violent temper!
After all, fellow Ice-type Pokémon such as Vanillite were food for Glalie...
More importantly, Glalie could learn plenty of Dark-type moves!
The Dark type's advantage over the Psychic type wasn't limited to type effectiveness. Thanks to Mr. Mime's Fairy typing, Dark-type moves weren't particularly effective against it, but that didn't mean their advantage over Psychic powers ceased to exist!
