Chapter 373: Salamence's Call, and Rayquaza's Visit!
Chapter 373: Salamence's Call, and Rayquaza's Visit!
That day, they had arrived and left in a hurry, and there were many things they hadn't had a chance to tell their senior, Rayquaza.
Not only that, but Rayquaza also told them that he had been living in the sky all this time.
Hearing this, the group of Pokemon felt a wave of pity for their senior.
Living alone in the sky, with no food to eat and no soft bed to sleep on, exposed to the wind and sun, and even having to endure the cold of winter outdoors, only able to nibble on rocks floating among the stars when hungry.
So, after some discussion among the Pokemon, Salamence and Treecko decided to invite their senior, Rayquaza, to the ranch as a guest.
They had prepared a sumptuous feast to welcome Rayquaza.
On the grass in the Snorlax Park, a blue-striped picnic blanket was spread out, adorned with a pile of colorful Berries and a stack of tree-made treats.
There were sweet Energy Blocks, crisp Poffins, creamy-scented cookies, and a cake baked with eggs and MooMoo Milk.
The picnic blanket was borrowed from Treecko's brother, Castform.
The Berries were picked by Salamence from the Berry garden.
The Energy Blocks and Poffins were retrieved by Barboach from the refrigerator.
As for the cookies and cake, they were brought over by Froslass, who had asked the Salazzle to accompany her.
Now, all the preparations were complete, and they only needed to call upon Rayquaza.
With this in mind, Treecko and Barboach turned their gazes toward Salamence.
Salamence held the scale, staring intently, channeling its mental power into the scale with great effort, calling out to Rayquaza.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Time passed, but there was no response from the scale.
"Roar..."
Salamence felt dejected.
When Rayquaza had given him the scale, it hadn't explained how to use it.
Seeing this, the rest of the Pokemon were at a loss as well.
They looked up at the sky and murmured, "Mama?" (Will Senior Rayquaza come?)
"Ponini..." (I don't know...)
Barboach sighed, "Bamo." (It's a legendary hero that saved the world. It would be amazing to meet it.)
Meanwhile, in the Hoenn Region, in the city of Verdanturf.
The satellite at the Verdanturf Space Center suddenly detected a powerful magnetic field fluctuation.
To prevent satellite damage and to observe the mysterious universe, each satellite launched into space was equipped with an energy camera capable of capturing real-time images of its surroundings.
As soon as the magnetic field fluctuation appeared, the operator at the control desk immediately pulled up the live satellite footage.
The next second, the electronic screen in front of the monitor displayed a scene.
In the image, the backdrop was outer space, with the vast and mysterious universe in the distance and a beautiful blue planet below.
Suddenly, a pitch-black figure appeared in the satellite image.
The creature flew to an asteroid and began to feed.
Staring at the screen, the monitor exclaimed, "That Pokemon is..."
Senior officials from the Verdanturf Space Center arrived one after another.
As they gazed at the black Pokemon, someone soon recognized the mysterious creature.
"That silhouette... Could it be the legendary Pokemon Rayquaza, the Sky High God?"
"Living in the ozone layer, with the ability to roam outer space at will. There's no doubt, it's Rayquaza!"
"Incredible! What a majestic and awe-inspiring figure!"
"What is it doing? Is it feeding?"
In the vastness of space, Rayquaza absorbed the energy from the asteroid while glancing at the drifting machine in the distance.
It knew what that object was.
It was something created by humans, launched from the earth into space.
At first, Rayquaza was intrigued by this object, mistaking it for an enemy invading the sky.
After a moment of hesitation, Rayquaza stopped feeding and turned around, rushing straight towards the direction of the call.
At the Verdanturf Space Center in the Hoenn Region, the astronauts were baffled by Rayquaza's reaction.
"It stopped feeding!"
"Look, it seems to have noticed something!"
"What could possibly make Rayquaza stop feeding?"
After a moment of thought, a senior official ordered, "Track Rayquaza's movements!"
The Verdanturf Space Center was not only responsible for space exploration but also served as a security alert center for the Hoenn Region.
Unlike other regions, the Hoenn Region had always faced potential threats.
To prepare for potential disasters, the Hoenn League had set up a dedicated department within the Verdanturf Space Center to monitor the region 24/7.
They were on the lookout for signs of earthquakes, tsunamis...
And in the event that the legends came true and the Earth God, Groudon, and the Ocean God, Kyogre, awakened to begin their battle, they would be the first to detect it and develop response strategies, dispatching Champions to intervene.
The satellite tracked Rayquaza's magnetic field fluctuations back to the planet.
On the radar detection map displayed on the screen, the little red dot representing Rayquaza was moving at an extremely fast speed.
It flew across the Hoenn Region and over the Unova Region, but Rayquaza showed no signs of stopping.
"Report! We've reached the limit! Rayquaza has exceeded the maximum detection range of our radar!" the monitor operator exclaimed.
On the screen, the little red dot representing Rayquaza disappeared.
The senior officials were filled with shock and confusion.
According to the legends, Rayquaza was a Pokemon that rarely descended to the earth.
It lived high in the sky and rarely showed itself.
Only when the Earth God, Groudon, and the Ocean God, Kyogre, began their battle would Rayquaza descend to stop the two Pokemon.
And now, Rayquaza had left space.
"What could be attracting Rayquaza?"
In the Pasio Region, at the Ranch in Shiki Town...
On the grass, Haxorus was engaged in an intense Pokemon battle with Motostoke.
The battle had reached its climax.
Haxorus opened its mouth, purple energy swirling as it attempted to defeat Motostoke with Dragon Rage.
But Motostoke's battle experience far exceeded that of Haxorus.
It skillfully used the move "Avoid," and then lifted its dragon tail, striking Haxorus.
"Well done, Motostoke! That Dragon Tail was beautifully executed!" Naoki cheered.
"Don't give up, Haxorus! Keep going!" he encouraged his Pokemon.
Naoki watched the sparring match between Haxorus and Motostoke, cheering them on.
Suddenly, he noticed Reuniclus' figure flicker and appear in front of him.
Reuniclus looked solemn.
"Hmm?" Naoki turned to it in curiosity. "What is it?"
Reuniclus looked up at the sky and replied, "I sense a powerful presence drawing near."
Naoki was taken aback, his confusion evident. "What's going on?"
The sparring Pokemon paused, their curiosity getting the better of them.
Gourgeist walked over to Naoki and stood beside him, both of them gazing up at the sky.
"Agas..."
The next moment, the clouds in the sky churned, and the weather changed abruptly.
An enormous pitch-black figure descended, accompanied by howling winds.
