After dealing with Genesect, Ace turned his attention to the Aerodactyl in the cultivation chamber.
He already had some ideas on how to extract the Rock-type attribute from its body.
Ace took out three gems from his pouch, corresponding to Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza—the red, blue, and green gems.
Seeing Ace take out the three gems, Rotom quickly raised a device from underground and instantly connected it to the cultivation chamber.
Ace walked over and placed the three gems into the machine's slots one by one.
The clasps rebounded, firmly securing the three gems to the machine.
Ace waved his hand, and a virtual screen appeared in mid-air. Ace manipulated it with both hands, and the machine soon began to operate, extracting a portion of power from the three gems.
Three streams of power flowed into the cultivation chamber through the machine, intertwining and merging, finally forming a peculiar force.
Ace slowly controlled the virtual screen in front of him, and that force gently injected itself into Aerodactyl's body.
Curled up and sleeping in the cultivation fluid, Aerodactyl suddenly opened its eyes. Its pupils were blood-red, and a sense of oppression slowly began to emanate from its body.
Moreover, the cultivation fluid in the chamber began to boil as if it had been brought to a rapid heat.
Ace suddenly raised his hand, spending five task points. White light penetrated the cultivation chamber and injected into Aerodactyl's body.
In an instant, the cultivation fluid became murky, and wisps of black energy began to emerge from Aerodactyl's body.
Seeing this, Ace breathed a sigh of relief; so far, everything was going smoothly.
However, Ace didn't leave but quietly stayed there, observing Aerodactyl's condition.
This observation lasted a full three days.
On the third day, the murky cultivation fluid was rapidly drained from the chamber. After all the fluid was emptied, Ace opened the cultivation chamber. The thoroughly soaked Aerodactyl raised its head, suddenly opened its mouth, and let out a loud, high-pitched cry, announcing the formal arrival of its transformation!
Ace examined Aerodactyl from head to tail, and its information quickly appeared before him.

Ace's eyes lit up. Aerodactyl's strength had significantly increased, and its Ability had changed from Pressure to Aerilate.
Looking at Aerodactyl's eager expression, Ace knew it couldn't wait to test how strong its transformed body was!
Ace recalled Aerodactyl and, after checking on Genesect's status, left the lab with the Aerodactyl.
Outside the villa, Ace found Crobat, who was chewing on a weight plate for a dumbbell, and had it serve as an opponent to help Aerodactyl familiarize itself with its new strength.
Crobat naturally had no objection. It dropped the dented weight plate and flew high into the sky.
Ace opened the Premier Ball, and Aerodactyl immediately soared up.
Looking at Crobat in the air, Aerodactyl wasted no time. It coiled its body, rapidly stirred up a gale, and charged toward Crobat at an incredibly terrifying speed.
Crobat's eyes narrowed. Toxic fluid enveloped its entire body in an instant.
"Boom!"
Aerodactyl and Crobat slammed into each other, both retreating a distance.
Crobat frowned slightly. During the collision just now, it noticed that a layer of gaseous membrane covered Aerodactyl's body. Because of this, even when colliding head-on, Aerodactyl was completely untouched by the poison covering Crobat's body.
Crobat crossed its wings, gathered the toxic fluid, and then violently flapped them, instantly launching the poison toward Aerodactyl like a Gatling gun.
The massive amount of toxic fluid formed a "net of heaven and earth" that directly locked down Aerodactyl's movement.
Aerodactyl forcefully flapped its wings, and a powerful gust of wind burst forth from around its body. The air pressure directly blocked the poison, simultaneously shattered its impact force, and blew it away.
Seizing the opportunity, Aerodactyl suddenly opened its mouth, shooting out a Dark Pulse that sped rapidly toward Crobat.
Crobat dodged at extreme speed. Then, using all four wings for propulsion, its speed was so fast it created afterimages, and it shot toward Aerodactyl like a cannonball.
Aerodactyl stirred up a gale and charged back toward Crobat, equally unyielding.
"Rumble!"
It was like a clap of thunder had exploded. Aerodactyl and Crobat were instantly thrown backward, crashing heavily onto the ground before slowly getting back up after a long moment.
"That's enough."
Ace called a halt to the two Pokémon that still wanted to fight. Then, he pulled a Sweet Berry from his pouch—a poison-curing berry—and shoved it into Aerodactyl's mouth.
Aerodactyl chomped the Sweet Berry somewhat unhappily. After eating the berry, the purple color rapidly spreading across its body was suppressed and gradually faded.
It was clear that if the poisoned Aerodactyl continued to fight Crobat, it would certainly lose.
However, even so, Ace nodded, satisfied with Aerodactyl's strength.
One must remember that Crobat had possessed the Poison Energy for so long, and its move Poison Wing was highly developed.
It was almost impossible now to break through the poison and fight Crobat.
And Crobat's poison, cultivated slowly over the years, had reached the point where a single drop could kill half a city's population—that was a basic feat for Crobat.
The fact that Aerodactyl could fight Crobat to a draw was far beyond Ace's expectations.
Looking at Aerodactyl, who still seemed somewhat unconvinced, Ace smiled and then raised his hand. A seemingly ordinary marble, yet one that felt as though it contained an endless gale inside, appeared in Ace's hand.
"Eat it, Aerodactyl."
Ace looked at Aerodactyl and said, "This is your energy source."
Aerodactyl's eyes immediately widened, shining with surprise.
With Ace's approval, Aerodactyl opened its mouth, instantly snatched the marble, and swallowed it whole.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh..."
A gale began to rise. Ace and Crobat instantly moved away from their original positions, and Aerodactyl was instantly enveloped by a giant tornado hundreds of meters high.
Crobat stabilized its body, watched the spectacular sight, and then looked at Ace with a grudge.
Whether it was Lapras or now Aerodactyl, the commotion after swallowing the energy source was more massive than the last. Why had there been almost no movement when it had taken its own?
Ace patted Crobat, comforted it a little, and then looked at the tornado, smiling slightly. "The Storm Energy is indeed good. I wonder if Aerodactyl can handle it."
