"Yang vs. Mercury" is a battle that occurred during the Vytal Festival tournament.

Preceding Events
The fight is the first match of the Vytal Festival tournament finals round. Like all Vytal Festival matches, the venue for the fight is Amity Colosseum. Unlike previous rounds, only the central octagonal area is within bounds, and contestants are disqualified if they fall onto the outer segments. As such, there are no biomes in this fight.

The Fight
The fight begins when both Yang and Mercury land their first blow on each other, with Yang throwing the first punch and Mercury launching his first kick. Mercury then rushes in, and attempts to aim for Yang's foot, but the latter leaps in the air behind him and attempts to land a shot with her Ember Celica.

Yang's subsequent punches are then continuously blocked by Mercury's forearms, until the two continue to exchange another major hit that sends them backwards.

Mercury later dodges a barrage of rounds from Ember Celica while closing the distance, landing a downward axe kick blocked by Yang. He then leaps into the air to evade a low kick and the following blast, before delivering a backwards somersault kick to his opponent.
