As a Prophet, Melody has engaged in beyond complex magical manipulations that would blow most peons' minds! With her knowledge of both the scientific and the arcane, she is feared by many Lights. Pikachu's damage may be decent, but Melody's barrier will take a hefty chunk out of it. And of course, the Pokemon's durability is outright abysmal. Eliminate Scanner will quickly tear the rat into tiny pieces, and Melody's poison counters will even turn Pikachu's attacks against it. After fighting off the will of Filgaia itself, Melody can take a little rat.
