The sigh-inducing wall of despair for Physical Attackers, nothing more than this!
"Mega Gyarados! Use Destructive Death Beam!"
"Roar——"
Mega Gyarados, responding to Fladari's words, struggled wildly, more energy surging out from the drainage ports on its sides, as an even more terrifying dark light gathered in its mouth than before.
Just during this brief pulling time.
The previously knocked-away Mega Metagross and Mega Salamence had already regained their stances, charging towards Mega Gyarados from both sides under their respective Trainers' commands!
"Comet Fist!"
"Ultimate Shock!"
Mega Gyarados had nowhere to hide!
Bang! Bang!
The earth-shattering sounds of a huge explosion echoed throughout the entire building, with the flooring above and below emitting cracking sounds as if they couldn't bear the weight.
The surrounding supporting walls also seemed unable to withstand the impact, and the sounds of metal fatigue reached Baimu's ears.
In an instant.
A gust of strong wind swept in, completely dispersing the overwhelming smoke in the floor.
Led by Mega Aggron, the three Pokémon stood upright, with the reverted-to-original Altered-color Gyarados at their feet due to its draining stamina.
Two rounds.
Got it!
"Your dependency is nothing, Fladari."
Baimu stated this fact calmly as he looked at Fladari, who was still hovering in front of the Legendary Giant Stone.
Though it was their first cooperation, he, Da Wu, and Xijana needed almost no communication to complete the simple tactical strategy of two Pokémon actively luring the enemy in the first round, while one Pokémon restrained in the second round, leaving the other two to attack.
By comparison.
Fladari may possess power comparable to that of a Celestial King or higher, but he couldn't win against three Trainers capable of standing against him merely by energy enhancement.
"Give up unnecessary struggles and surrender, Representative Fladari. Your mad plan is ultimately just a fantasy."
Da Wu followed up with persuasion.
Xijana also said, "This world isn't as rotten as you say it is. Quit daydreaming!"
"Hmph..."
Fladari snorted coldly, about to say something when his gaze suddenly lifted, looking behind the three.
Several voices followed.
"Fladari! Your conspiracy ends here!"
"Kookgah!"
"Representative... you've really been deceiving me all along..."
"Fladari! Stop it! It's over, everything's over."
Damn it.
It's a chaos!
Baimu pulled at the corner of his mouth, turning his head to indeed see Ash Ketchum, Greninja, Ailan, Mega Charizard X, and Pachira.
What are these guys doing here? A dramatic final appearance?
"Ash! Ailan! How are you here!" Da Wu was also very surprised. In his understanding, the former should be staying at the headquarters, while the latter should be helping him dig for fossils!
Xijana furrowed her brow lightly, "I hope things don't get more complicated..."
Seeing these three, Fladari was momentarily silent.
"Ailan, Pachira... So, you all chose to betray me."
He turned his head, trying to find those four female officers, but Naihe found that they had long been blown off somewhere earlier in the explosion.
"Hahaha... Hahahaha... Hahahahahaha——"
Fladari laughed madly like a maniac, the mechanical arms on his back suddenly pointing towards a certain place, releasing three beams of red light.
"Waddles!"
The invisible Dragapult hurriedly escaped.
Click!
The sneak attack failed! Could it be that the mechanical back of his can see through invisible Pokémon? Relying on energy fluctuations?
Or was the timing just too late...
Baimu frowned inwardly, leaning towards launching a sneak attack when Mega Gyarados was attacking.
Naihe's energy fluctuations were too intense; even though the Destructive Beam wouldn't harm Dragapult, it might reveal the latter.
Fortunately, the failed sneak attack wasn't a big problem.
Reinforcements for a righteous beatdown!
"A guy who only knows petty thievery actually forced me to this point..."
Fladari looked coldly at Baimu, obviously hating him to the extreme, "But my wish will not collapse here! No matter what the cost! I will change this world!"
He shouted as the mechanical arms on his back suddenly turned directions, firing red light towards the giant stone!
Everyone was startled in unison.
At the same time.
Dragapult launched another attack!
"Waddles!"
"Hee Yah!"
The two Dreepys screeched as they charged at the mechanical tentacles, precisely knocking out two of them, but unexpectedly, the Legendary Giant Stone beside them suddenly emitted a terrifying energy surge!
Buzz!
Boom!
The glass outside the Legendary Giant Stone suddenly shattered!
Everyone was affected by the energy shock and the glass shards, their heads spinning for a moment.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
Baimu shouted, then saw Fladari laughing wildly as he merged into the giant stone, a Zygarde cell pattern appearing on his chest.
"Let the world be destroyed!"
In that instant.
An astonishing mutation occurred on the giant stone, countless spikes extended from its surroundings, causing it to rapidly swell and push through the ceiling!
Scarlet thick vines danced wildly!
Everyone was shocked as they watched this scene.
Pachira covered her mouth, "Fladari... why..."
Da Wu quickly waved his hand, "Retreat! Quickly retreat! Do not attack yet!"
He was worried that the mutated giant stone might be some kind of bomb, and if it exploded upon being attacked, everyone present would not survive and would be reduced to fragments.
Everyone and their Pokémon immediately chose to leave the building, along with the unconscious Altered-color Gyarados and the Flashing Flame Team executives who had rolled into the corner.
Fortunately.
During their battle, the inside of the building had already been swept through by international police, and the valuable things had already been taken away.
Everyone safely reached outside the building, watching as the main building of Lysandre Labs completely collapsed with the wild dance of gigantic vines. The central figure, the eerie and terrifying giant stone Zygarde, was striking to behold.
"Have we still come to this point..."
Da Wu's tone was heavy. He had intended to bring Fladari to justice, but with the current situation, it was questionable whether this guy was even still alive.
Moreover, how should they handle this giant stone Zygarde? It was clearly a task assigned to him, yet it evolved into this situation.
"Representative..."
Seemingly awakened from deception, Ailan clenched her fists.
The other people looked at this dreadful scene, and the terrifying phenomena that seemed to respond to the giant stone Zygarde, each with different expressions on their faces.
Xijana sighed softly and said, "What you fear truly does come. Baimu, do you have a good plan?"
"Yes, I do."
"As expected... huh?"
Everyone dumbly looked at the center, at Baimu, whose expression was incredibly calm, even somewhat odd.
"Baimu! What are you planning to do?"
Da Wu quickly asked, even though he often found this new friend's thoughts very peculiar, he thought that any suggestion should be seriously considered now.
To solve the matter at hand.
Baimu shook his head in response to everyone's gaze, saying, "I don't need to do anything, and neither do you—
"They will do it."
As his voice fell.
"Heh heh heh heh—Finally, it's time for Hoopa to appear!"
A rugged voice rang out, and everyone turned their heads, immediately noticing a giant with six purple arms floating not far away, looking smugly at the giant stone Zygarde.
Subsequently.
Words like a proclamation appeared on the other side.
'I am Zygarde, the Guardian of Order! Let me show you what I can do. This world shall not be destroyed by you!!'
The radiant green light shone layer upon layer, countless beams of green light flew across the sky, transforming into enormous green columns of light that illuminated the entire sky!
Amidst the messages.
Another giant appeared. Black, light green, blue, and red colors flowed across its body, and its majestic and imposing scene was mind-stirring.
"That is—"
"Zygarde's Complete Form! The true Guardian of Natural Order!"
Without needing Baimu to introduce it, Pachira answered Ash Ketchum's confusion first.
But it wasn't over yet.
Above the sky.
The pitch-black swirling clouds revolved like a vortex, quickly spreading across the entire sky, accompanied by a roar that echoed throughout the universe. A massive, dark dragon plummeted with a crash, its golden whiskers swaying in the wind, oh, how sacred it was!
"Rayquaza! The super-evolved Rayquaza!"
"Roar—!!"
The two Legendary Pokémon and the Mythical Pokémon surrounded the giant stone Zygarde from three directions, and after a brief pause that seemed like time had stopped—
They unleashed their terrifying techniques capable of destroying heaven and earth!
Green light! Dark light! Green light!
Boom—!!
Three intense flashes, resembling a nuclear explosion, rose slowly in front of everyone!
Silence ensued.
Only the afterglow remained!
"I told you, your reliance is nothing," Baimu muttered quietly.
