With the roars of Xiaozhi and Gongsun Yan, the two Poké Balls that had been hanging on their waists finally appeared on the field. Although this was their first appearance, it was their peak performance!
"what?!"
"This is impossible!"
"Am I seeing things? Could those two Pokémon on the field be..."
With the appearance of Suicune and Groudon, both the audience at the scene and the audience in front of the TV went crazy. Since the establishment of the alliance, although the connection between the legendary beasts and the alliance has never been interrupted, they have all been hidden in the dark, and there has never been a case of them appearing directly on TV like this.
"Please keep calm and don't get too excited!"
President Damalanchi had been prepared. After Suicune and Groudon appeared, many security personnel rushed out from the passage and maintained order at the scene.
If Gongsun Yan glanced over there, he would find that most of the people there looked familiar to him. They were obviously the prosecutors who came to help during the previous Jirachi incident.
Due to various reasons, they were unable to return to the headquarters in Kanto in time, and instead stayed in Caiyou City, acting as security guards for President Damalanchi, and were later drafted by President Damalanchi.
As soon as they appeared on the stage, they found that the two people on the field looked very familiar. Aren't they the two guys who tricked them into coming to Hoenn? All the prosecutors didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the two of them entering the finals, but the two on the field were a bit too much.
The prosecutors looked at each other in bewilderment and decided not to go to the scene, otherwise they would feel like they had been living a dog's life for so many years. They were once famous rising stars, but now they were turned into ashes in seconds.
Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi didn't care what happened in the audience. Now all their attention was focused on the battle in front of them. This would be the final battle of their entire journey in the Hoenn region. How could they not care?
The trainer's state was perfectly reflected in the Pokémon of both sides. A north wind suddenly blew behind Suicune, and a thin mist enveloped Suicune, completely highlighting its stunning beauty. At least Mikoli's eyes were sparkling when he looked at Suicune.
Although Suicune made quite a fuss, Groudon was not weak at all. In fact, most people's attention was shifted to Groudon. Not only because Groudon was the creator of the earth in the Hoenn mythology and had the blessing of the myth, but also because of the magma that was about to overflow outside the field.
That's right, Groudon started using his traditional skills as soon as he appeared. The new grass field that had just been substituted in was not damaged because the Desert Dragonfly fell too quickly before and Serpentis deliberately protected it, but it was now completely covered by magma, and there were even signs of it spreading to Suicune.
How could Suicune allow the magma to spread under his feet? Even though he could evolve into a water source and run on the water, and magma was flowing just like lake water, he couldn't do the same thing.
Then water continued to seep out from the soles of Suicune's feet, or it was the water that Suicune called up from the water fields under his feet that had not yet appeared. The endless flow of water and magma continued to flow to the center of the field, and while completely destroying the entire grass field, they met.
"呲呲呲!"
Several shrill screams were heard by everyone. At the same time, a huge amount of water vapor rose up and covered the entire venue. The audience who were a little further away could not see each other.
After a while, as Groudon and Suicune stopped their tests, the huge amount of water vapor gradually dissipated, and the situation on the field once again appeared in front of everyone.
Obviously, Groudon and Suicune stopped quickly, but the audience was so restless while waiting for the water vapor to dissipate. This was not just water vapor, it contained a lot of heat, which made the audience sweat profusely.
"This is outrageous! How can we watch a game like we're in a sauna?!" More than one audience member roared in their hearts, but because this match of the century was too exciting, they could only endure it.
As the smoke cleared, the figures of Groudon and Suicune appeared in front of everyone. The two Pokémon remained in their previous positions without moving, but a huge piece of obsidian appeared in the center of the venue. This was the mark left by the previous fight between the two Pokémon.
However, despite the huge fanfare before, it was not even a warm-up for these two, and the real battle is just about to begin.
Chapter 485: At a disadvantage
"Suicune, Freezing Wind!"
"Grawo, spray fire!"
Xiaozhi and Gongsun Yan decisively chose to test the water-type and ground-type beasts first with their long-range moves. The first moves used by them were ice-type and fire-type, which was a bit of black humor.
Suicune opened his mouth slightly, and a ball of blue-white ice mist spread towards Groudon; but Groudon did not sit there and wait for death. He opened his mouth wide, and a scorching flame met the freezing wind head-on.
Don't forget that the magma under Groudon's feet has not solidified. The boiling magma provided Groudon with a lot of energy. In addition, the power of the jet flame is much higher than that of the freezing wind, so the freezing wind was completely dispersed in an instant.
But is Suicune's attack really that simple? Of course it's impossible. As the ice mist gradually dissipated, Suicune opened his mouth wide and sucked hard, sucking all the dissipated ice mist back into his mouth.
“Zizziboom!”
This time, what appeared in Suicune's mouth was a beam of blue and white laser electric snake, which was a freezing beam move. It turned out that the previous freezing wind was only to slightly reduce the power of the jet of flames, and its greater function was to strengthen the following freezing beam.
Should we say that he is worthy of being the incarnation of the north wind? Every move he uses is so showy, but the effect is obviously very significant. The fiery red jet of flames and the blue-white freezing beam collided with each other, and finally exploded violently, turning into thick smoke that spread across the entire arena.
Evenly matched.
To be honest, if Gongsun Yan was a spectator of this game, he would probably want to curse. The battle had already started for several minutes, but they only saw the two sides fighting for less than 30 seconds. If it were in the previous life, a group of people would definitely shout "rnm, give me back my money!"
However, the audience's emotions soon recovered because the situation on the field changed significantly and the smoke that spread throughout the stadium was dispersed.
It turned out that a huge wave appeared under Suicune's feet, which was even more powerful than the one used by Pikachu before. After all, Suicune is a water-type Pokémon, and is much more skilled than Pikachu, an electric-type Pokémon. It was just adding another three meters to Pikachu's three-meter-high wave, not worth mentioning... bullshit!
Gongsun Yan felt bad when he looked at Suicune who was looking down at him. You know, Groudon has only grown to a height of three meters now, and now this six-meter-high wave can drown two Groudon, although Groudon can breathe underwater.
"Grawo, use Earthshatter!"
Gongsun Yan was not at all careless. What if he was hit by the surf? Even if Groudon could breathe in water, it would be the same. As a pioneer of the land, Groudon naturally disliked water and immediately came up with a way to deal with it.
The move Earthshatter is meant to create a crack on the ground, letting the opponent fall into the crack, and then using the squeezing force to kill the opponent instantly. However, the hit rate is a bit disappointing, and it is difficult to be effective against opponents with higher levels than itself.
The level of Groudon is naturally not higher than that of Suicune who has reached the champion level. Even now Groudon's level has not yet exceeded level 50, and the time given to him to accumulate is not enough. However, due to the special nature of the mythical beast, he has been promoted to the strongest fighting force under Gongsun Yan.
However, Gongsun Yan had no intention of using the Earth Fissure to attack Suicune. Besides, Suicune was now standing on a six-meter-high wave. What kind of crack would be needed to drag him down? So Gongsun Yan only planned to use the Earth Fissure to weaken the power of the wave.
"Boom!"
As soon as Gongsun Yan finished speaking, Groudon roared, and without any movement from him, cracks appeared in front of the huge waves. The huge wave ridden by Suicune suddenly sank a lot when passing through these cracks.
The amount of water absorbed by the ground crack even reduced the six-meter-high wave to less than three meters, but this is the limit of the ground crack technique.
But it doesn't matter. Groudon is not without a solution. Intense flames spewed out of his mouth, and in a short period of time, the huge waves in front of him were reduced by another meter in height. The magma under his feet also consumed a lot of water.
When this last powerful wave really hit Groudon, it was only about one meter high. Although it still knocked Groudon back repeatedly, it quickly stood firm and withstood the rushing water.
"Roar!"
However, Groudon obviously hated the water that covered the entire arena. He just shook off the water droplets hanging on his body that made him very uncomfortable, and walked forward slowly.
As Groudon continued to move forward, the water along the way began to boil, a dazzling red color spread from the bottom of the water, and the hot magma surged up from the ground again.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a blue water ball whizzed towards Groudon. It was the Water Wave move used by Suicune. It seemed that Suicune finally remembered that he was a water-type Pokémon and no longer used those fancy moves.
"Grawo, arm hammer, block it!" Gongsun Yan shouted hurriedly.
Groudon lowered his eyes slightly, raised his right arm high, and smashed down hard at the oncoming blue water ball. The powerful force directly blew up the water waves, and it looked very violent.
However, Groudon's condition was obviously not as good as it looked. Gongsun Yan had already seen that there was some damage on the outer shell of Groudon's right arm, but it was not very visible under the magma. Groudon's strength was still somewhat insufficient compared to Suicune.
"Grawo, Earthquake!"
After discovering this, Gongsun Yan decisively chose to take the initiative. The violent earthquake made Suicune somewhat unstable, and he had to jump into the air to avoid it, but this was what Gongsun Yan was waiting for.
"Grawo, Sunshine Flame!"
"Suicune, Freeze Beam!"
Because of Groudon's characteristics, the sun on the field was now so scorching hot that Gongsun Yan could hardly stand. The two previous mega evolutions inevitably made him a little weak, and he was now sweating profusely.
However, Xiaozhi had no intention of letting Suicune get beaten. As Groudon had just condensed the Solar Flame, Suicune's Freeze Beam was ready. His proficiency in the moves was probably skyrocketing.
The two beams collided fiercely. After the initial stalemate, the freezing beam actually slowly suppressed the sunlight flame. Although this had an attribute advantage, it was also enough to prove how powerful Suicune was.
Chapter 486: Primitive Return
Groudon was caught off guard and was hit directly by the freezing beam. However, even though Groudon was restrained by ice-based moves, the magma under his feet was not vegetarian. The freezing beam, which had been mostly consumed by the sunlight and flames, did not cause much damage to Groudon standing in the magma.
To be honest, if it were the Three Pillars instead of Suicune, one of the three sacred beasts, who were fighting Groudon now, Groudon would probably still have a slight advantage. The magma all over the ground is undoubtedly a special attack against the melee type of the Three Pillars. Even if their bodies can wade through the magma, their movements will be restricted.
But Suicune is a completely long-range Pokémon, and it won't get close to you at all. This directly cuts off most of the effect of the magma under Groudon's feet. Apart from making Groudon a little more comfortable, it has no other specific effect.
However, since Solar Flame cannot defeat Freeze Beam, then Groudon's ground-based moves will have no chance of defeating Suicune's water-based moves, so Gongsun Yan must make some changes.
"Grawo, return to your original form!" Gongsun Yan suddenly roared.
Although natural energy is difficult to absorb, what is the point of having power if it is not used?
As the saying goes, if you don't use a trick, your heart will get broken. Gongsun Yan has long wanted to try out the power of Groudon's original return. The previous battle against the giant telekinetic clay doll does not count. After all, so much time has passed, and Groudon's strength has changed a lot.
"Roar!"
Groudon has been patient for a long time. After feeling the power of the original return state, he often wanted to experience it again. However, Gongsun Yan always disagreed, so he endured it. Now that Gongsun Yan agrees, he simply stops acting.
Strange patterns continued to spread on Groudon's fiery red armor, flashing dazzling yellow light. This unprecedented scene attracted the attention of everyone present.
However, Groudon was obviously not prepared to act as a monkey. He just moved his body casually, and the magma under his feet spread to his body, obscuring his figure.
When Groudon reappeared in front of everyone, he had turned into the original Groudon, and his body had expanded a little. Although it was not as exaggerated as the old Groudon, it had also grown about half a meter and had completely become a giant beast.
"Okay, Xiaozhi, it's time for our second battle to begin! Groudon, Cliff Sword!" After seeing that Groudon had completed its primitive regression, Gongsun Yan directly commanded Groudon to use his ultimate move.
In fact, Gongsun Yan didn't want to be so anxious. You see, when Ultraman fights small monsters, he has to consume a wave first, and then wait until the red light comes on before using his big move to take away the opponent in one wave. It's so cool.
But Ultraman has at least three minutes of fighting time on Earth, and even Leo, the prince of the L77 Nebula, has two minutes and forty seconds. But how long can the current Groudon last?
Not more, not less, just one minute. Such a short time is not enough for a Pokémon battle, even getting up and pouring a glass of water may not be enough. What can Gongsun Yan do? He can only act quickly.
The original Cliff Sword was a move in which a sword blade extended from the soles of the opponent's feet and stabbed towards an indescribable position of the opponent. Not only was the move slow, it was also very easy to dodge. Before the Cliff Sword was condensed, the opponent could see with the naked eye that the ground under his feet was constantly turning red, and the air was becoming hotter and hotter.
Isn't this pure cheating? If it weren't for the fact that the attack range of this move is so large and difficult to dodge, the hit rate of this move would probably hit a new low.
However, under the guidance of Gongsun Yan, this move unique to the Groudon clan has undergone several minor changes, and at least its appearance is worthy of its domineering name.
"Is this move the legendary one?"
"As expected of the creator of the earth, your unique moves are so gorgeous."
"But why does this style look familiar to me?"
"Shut up, don't say anything, it's obvious that those TV dramas plagiarized our patron saint, He is the real one!"
Although there were some abnormal terms in the audience's words, they perfectly reflected the mood of the audience present. After all, anyone would find it strange to see a Pokémon carrying a two-handed broadsword that was obviously enlarged in size.
That's right, Gongsun Yan directly asked Groudon to turn the originally one-time Cliff Sword into a continuous move. Since the move can't hit, I will hold it in my hand and hit it. As we all know, the probability of a melee attack missing is much lower than that of a ranged attack.
As for why it is a two-handed broadsword, that is a little hobby of Gongsun Yan. As a former warrior of the Alliance, he is naturally very good at using a two-handed broadsword. He even tried to reproduce the sword moves in Warcraft, although he was beaten up by his father.
"Go on, Groudon, use Fire Slash!" Gongsun Yan commanded Groudon with great interest.
As for what he shouted, you can completely ignore it. There is no such move in the Pokémon world at all, so no matter how hard Gongsun Yan shouts, it's actually just a simple normal attack.
Groudon held the Cliff Sword in both hands and slashed towards Suicune, forcing Suicune to retreat step by step. He brushed past the Cliff Sword countless times, and his originally smooth skin was burned by the magma on the Cliff Sword.
So is Groudon's swordsmanship excellent? Of course that's impossible. Swordsmanship is not something that can be mastered quickly. In addition, this move was invented not long ago, so Groudon was just chopping randomly.
But who can blame Groudon for his good physical fitness? He wielded the two-handed broadsword with great force, completely covering Suicune's body, making it impossible to avoid.
In fact, Suicune also felt helpless. He had clearly made corresponding evasive actions, but Groudon did not play according to the routine. The previous sword was cutting on the left side, and the next sword was cutting on the back. This really made Suicune suffer.
As the saying goes, a random punch can kill a master. Suicune, who is always known for his calmness, was fooled by Groudon, the naughty kid. For a while, he could only dodge and dodge again.
But if you guard too long, you will lose. The same is true for hiding for too long. Suicune was not careful and was hit directly by the Cliff Sword. Not only was he knocked away, he even let out a scream. Groudon's arm strength in his original return state was so amazing that even Suicune could not hold him up.
However, just when Groudon wanted to press on with the victory, the natural energy flowing in his body began to shrink continuously, and the time for returning to its original state had come.
Chapter 487: Off-field Factors
"Toothwhite, Groudon, use Earthquake!"
After seeing that the original regression state was lifted, Gongsun Yan immediately came out of the joy of obtaining the Cliff Sword. Although it seemed that Groudon had the advantage before, in fact, Suicune delayed the time of Groudon's strongest form without paying any price.
If Groudon's Cliff Sword had not succeeded in the end, Suicune would have won completely, so Gongsun Yan could only let Groudon use Earthquake to stop Suicune's attack.
"Sui-kun, use the water cannon at full power!"
The ground began to shake continuously, but Ash and Suicune had no intention of backing down. On the contrary, Suicune chose to face the challenge head-on, and rushed to Groudon while enduring the damage from the earthquake, and washed Groudon's face with a water cannon at almost zero distance.
"Grawo, use your last move!"
Seeing that Suicune's water cannon could no longer be avoided, Gongsun Yan made up his mind and simply stopped dodging, allowing Groudon to use its trump card.
Facing the oncoming water cannon, Groudon didn't even raise his head. He directly thrust the Cliff Sword in his hand into the magma in front of him, until even the hilt was submerged in the magma.
Then, Groudon was knocked into the lava by Suicune's full-power water cannon, and his originally bright red armor seemed a little dull, but it was no big deal, as Gongsun Yan's goal had been achieved.
After Groudon fell, the entire battlefield shook, but even though the two Pokémon on the field did not take the next step, the shaking of the field showed no sign of weakening. Instead, as time went on, the shaking became more and more violent.
"Xiaozhi, let me show you Groudon's strongest move, the ultimate move: Big Fire Breath!" Gongsun Yan said arrogantly.
As soon as Gongsun Yan finished speaking, a large amount of magma suddenly emerged from the place where the Cliff Sword was inserted into the magma. After a few seconds, the magma was no longer satisfied with flowing out slowly, but chose a faster way, which was to erupt directly!
"You bastard!" President Damalanchi, who was watching the final, started cursing and took out a Poké Ball from his arms and threw it in front of him.
A white light flashed, and Alakazam with a huge amount of super powers appeared in front of President Damalanch. Before he could say anything more, Alakazam realized how urgent the situation was. The spoon in his hand turned around, and a huge protective shield covered the battlefield below.
"......Respected President, you can't be so deceiving!" Gongsun Yan looked at the viewing platform above his head with a look full of resentment, and cursed in his heart.
It's no wonder that Gongsun Yan felt so uncomfortable. This move of his was originally a desperate one that would ensure his survival even if his enemy died. It would draw out the magma from the ground and directly send the opponent home with a wave of field magic. This was the most likely way Gongsun Yan could think of to defeat Suicune.
