After a pregnant pause, the Ice Rider Calyrex addressed Jen. "Sightless one, prepare for battle," they warned before charging at her. The Shadow Rider Calyrex charged at Liam, only to make a sudden turn towards Shiranui.
"Yoto, en garde!" Shiranui called his shiny Aegislash out and Shadow Rider Calyrex halted with a flourish before launching their signature move, Astral Barrage. "Yoto, Wide Guard!" The Aegislash conjured a hexagonally-segmented barrier that blocked the ghosts. "Night Slash!" Calyrex used Confuse Ray and let off a flash of bright light, rendering Yoto confused. Yoto tried to attack, but hurt himself in confusion. Vulnerable to another hit, Yoto was ensnared by a Leech Seed from Calyrex before taking further damage from his confusion. Confident of taking down Shiranui's kingmaker, Calyrex was about to fire another Astral Barrage before Yoto (in Blade Forme) struck a critical hit with Night Slash. "Ultra Ball, go!" Shiranui threw an Ultra Ball and the ball drew both Calyrex and Spectrier in. For one of the longest minutes in Shiranui's life, the ball was shaking violently until it eventually stopped and pinged a successful capture.
Shiranui picked up the ball and gave the newest addition to his team the name Shuukaku.
