While the attack was underway Lucario created a blue shield, aura. The shield took the hit only inches from Lucario's chest, having pumped up its speed which never got cut by rock tomb since it was cut up in mid air. "Brandon they don't call Lucario the aura pokémon for no reason, it can use aura for much more then firing an aura sphere. Fire attack or not, that blue light is a protective aura, perfect to block attacks. Also he can sense Ducslops that way, ghost type or not, it can't hide from Lucario. I made sure that Lucario learn how to use its aura abilities to the fullest. There's a school for that here in Sinnoh." A great school that is. A voice sounded in their heads of Brandon, Alana, Dusclops, Pichu and Cinccino, it was Lucario's.
