Flavor Text

A wondrous wall of light is put up to reduce damage from special attacks for five turns.

Effect

Erects a barrier around the user's side of the field that reduces damage from special attacks by half for five turns. In double and triple battles, the reduction is 1/3. Critical hits are not affected by the barrier.

If the user is holding Light Clay, the barrier lasts for eight turns.

Brick Break, Defog, Golden Flame, Psychic Fangs, or Raging Bull used by an opponent will destroy the barrier.
