Oh no, though for the Red Comet Dragons Blight does form a protective barrier, it has nothing to do with Pokémon. It's actually based on Dragon Element from monster hunters.

Think of it as a sort of anti-magic. It's an energy type that forms in certain organisms in the Reptile Kingdom, mostly high ranking dragons or similar creatures. When something is exposed to it, the energy will cling to the target and crackle around it. For the basic swordsman, it won't do much beyond the pain from the initial attack, but it will disable magical effects of enchanted/cursed items, cut magic users off from using their magic, and generally cripple magical effects of any kind. The only way to rid of it is to wait until the energy dissipates or to eat a small blue berry called a Nulberry, which causes to dissipate instantly from the body of the wearer and any equipment he is using at the time. There are also materials that resist Dragons Blight but most of those materials come from the creatures that use it, so that isn't exactly a way to avoid it. It also disables most advanced technology since it cuts out the electrical signals and other energy types just like it would cut the electricity from a sword with a lightening enchantment.
