Stamford is withdrawn into his pokéball for a well-deserved rest. Togetic tosses a new pokéball to the field, releasing Stamford’s replacement, a Growlithe by the name of Fulford. She barks happily as the trainers issue orders, and the flags are waved for the final leg of the battle to get underway.

Round 14
Dysalia takes the initiative, her eyes glowing an eerie golden color. The air around her also takes on a similar glow, until a semisolid golden bubble is completely formed around the Girafarig’s side of the field. Fulford is feeling hungry, and is more than willing to comply with her trainers’ wishes as she rushes forwards. She is slowed down considerably by the golden dome around Dysalia, though she manages to still reach her target. Just as she is about to bite down, however, the Girafarig-outline extends a leg which Fulford then bites down on, rather than Dysalia’s leg, which he had been targeting.
Having no mud in the arena to fling, Dysalia is forced to create some. She turns sideways so that her tail’s head can aim, and it spits out a glob of conjured mud into Fulford’s eyes. The Growlithe whines, but she refuses to relinquish what she still believes to be her opponent’s leg. She tightens her grip, biting down hard with her powerful teeth. The Girafarig-outline wasn’t built for such pressure, however, and begins to flicker into nothing, the way every other drawing in this place does. Fulford loses her footing slightly as the leg in her mouth vanishes into thin air. She stumbles backwards, out of the reflect bubble, while trying to scrape the mud out of her eyes so she can see what happened.
Meanwhile, Dysalia rears up on her hind legs, and then slams her front hooves into the ground. The familiar shock waves ripple through the arena, passing under Fulford and tossing him around, causing him to repeatedly bang into the ground. As the attack ends, Fulford stumbles to her feet, having shaken enough mud out of her eyes to at least recognize her target. She again charges forwards, and is slowed as she passes through the golden reflective bubble, and this time clamps down with dark energy around her teeth on the real Girafarig’s front leg. Dysalia screams as the puppy successfully nibbles on her, and the flags come down for an end to the round.
