Porygon-Z's swirly eyes widened a little, frozen in fear by the menacing ghost. Then it began to ever-so-slowly hover lower to the ground while Shade's Hypnosis hit.

"Porygon-Z, snap out of it!" the clear voice of Justine rang out. The black-haired woman had moved a little closer to the main fight, but not close enough to risk being hit by a stray attack. "Hit it with Psybeam!"

The pink Pokemon swiveled its head around a couple times, presumably to shake itself back to fully awake. Then it fired a multicolored beam at Shade.

Emry continued to run and dodge until she dramatically slid to Kaze's side like a baseball player sliding to a plate, barely affected by the mayhem going on around her. Solomon arrived a couple seconds later, looking a little worse for wear after blocking some attacks for the suddenly confident girl. A few seconds of chanting, a glimmer of white light, and Emry knew her Wish should revive Kaze in a matter of seconds.

Right after Emry's move, a torrent of flame scorched her back. While the Avatar of Jirachi screamed in pain, Solomon snarled at the offending Pansear and hammered it with an Aura Sphere.

The cloaked man yelled as a Linoone slashed a large cut in his leg. He began to look a little worn down by the onslaught of alarmed volunteers' Pokemon, though he still fought fiercely. The Avatar stood up into a straight, dominant stance and pulled his hood partially off, revealing a commanding blue-eyed gaze. Some of the attacking Pokemon stopped in their tracks, seemingly baffled and unable to figure out what to do, even when their trainers shouted orders at them.

Some Pokemon, however, seemed unfazed, including the Greninja. The precise attacker flung more Water Shurikens at the cloaked man. Some were dodged, some were not. The water type laughed gleefully during the assault, but he suddenly stopped laughing when a blast of booming sound collided directly with him and threw him into the folding chairs of the former viewing area.

The cloaked man took one second to look grimly at Alain and then try to spot Vuduin. If there was any best time to swoop in and help, it was now.
