Su Bai placed Pikachu on the table and took out the Life Orb.
The Life Orb was a supreme treasure formed from the power of Arceus's Grass Plate, Ground Plate, and Thunder Stone Plate, fused, amplified, and condensed through the power of the Dragon Stone Plate.

Pikachu gradually began to suffer. The
