....Shoot. Haruka has already sheathed her sword in preparation for walking over in "surrender", but when Merrill's Pokémon take action, she makes a dash for the shield generator. There wasn't time to use Agility, but she's still the fastest person she knows.

Aside from her Ninjask, who dive-bombs the soldier's head as insurance for Merrill's Pokémon. It doesn't intend to use any special attacks, just...braves the shield in an attempt to latch on. And stay there.

If Haruka makes it to the odd object creating the shield, she's slamming both palms against it and channeling Earthquake through her hands. That shield's really something. But what about the gadget that makes it?
