The referee took over from there. "This battle between Trent Fernandez of Eterna City, and Shawn Haze of Sandgem Town will shortly be underway. This is a one-on-one, and the match will end when either trainer's Pokemon are defeated, or if one trainer forfeits. This match will be held on a plain, dirt battlefield so neither side will have an advantage. Are both trainers ready?" the referee asked.
Both trainers replied with a yes.
"Then please send out your first Pokemon."

"Chandelure engage!" Shawn called. Ghost Lantern Pokemon appeared. It struck a battle-ready pose.
"Begin!" The ref said.

"Chandelure, Flamethrower!" Shawn countered.
Shiftry puts his hands together and fired a beam of dark circles. Meanwhile, Chandelure burst out a hot stream of fire from his mouth. Both attacks cancel each other
"Go Will-o-wisp!" Shawn called.
"Extrasensory, now!" Trent shouted.
Chandelure's eyes glowed and multiple fireballs circled around it. Then, it fires those balls towards the Wicked Pokemon, who sends multicolor waves to cancel out the fireballs, which move on to its path and hits Chandelure, knocking it a few steps back
