Chapter 469: The Great Hero, Latias, Conclusion of the Incident!
Chapter 469: The Great Hero, Latias, Conclusion of the Incident!
Dialga quickly sidestepped, narrowly avoiding the attack from the Pokemon thanks to Naoki's warning.
However, Groudon's sneak attack angered Palkia.
It let out an angry roar, turning around as a thick, black-red beam shot out from its mouth.
Groudon retaliated without hesitation, matching Palkia's Hyper Beam with its own.
The black-red energy intertwined and annihilated each other in mid-air, with red lightning flashing and crackling, distorting the surrounding space.
Palkia playfully engaged in a beam struggle with Groudon.
It slightly increased its energy output, causing Groudon to feel a sense of pressure.
Seriousness flashed in Groudon's golden eyes as it channeled earth energy, pushing back against Palkia's beam.
Just then, a sudden change occurred.
Gyarados, hidden beneath the water's surface, launched another attack. It leaped out of the water, its body erupting with countless blue-white lights as it attempted to strike Palkia from the side.
Seeing this, Naoki frowned.
He reached for a Poke Ball with his right hand, and with a flash of white light, his Dragonite appeared by Palkia's side.
"Thunderbolt!" Naoki commanded in a deep voice.
Dragonite was already very familiar with this electric-type move.
In an instant, thunderbolts filled the sky, and a thick bolt of lightning struck Gyarados, amplified by the rainy weather, sending it crashing back into the sea.
The Origin Pulse barely missed Palkia, veering off course.
Dragonite noticed the large aquatic Pokemon facing it.
It had once tried to capture that Pokemon for Naoki but had been defeated.
Seeing the Pokemon attempting to ambush them again, Palkia grew even angrier.
It abandoned its playful mood and unleashed a massive surge of energy that devoured Groudon's Hyper Beam, engulfing Groudon itself in the terrifying blast.
The overwhelming energy triggered a violent explosion, causing the seawater to churn and the earth to crack.
Huge waves rose on the sea's surface.
Both Groudon and Kyogre were knocked off balance.
"Amazing!"
In the pouring rain, the female reporter from Wisteria TV wiped away her tears, her voice filled with excitement as she witnessed the scene before her.
Her enthusiasm was conveyed to every viewer watching the live broadcast.
In the underground shelter of Faraway City, Qian Li stood in front of the crowd, his arms crossed as he stared at the figure on the screen.
Exclamations of surprise echoed from the people behind him.
"So powerful!"
That guy was actually holding his own against two Pokemon!
At that moment, the people of the Hoenn region felt a glimmer of hope.
Cheers and words of encouragement rang out from those watching through the screens: "Keep it up!"
"You have to win!"
At the Weather Institute, the high-ranking officials and researchers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the mysterious trainer and Palkia's ability to stop the impending disaster.
"Thank goodness!"
Some were so excited that they stood up and high-fived their colleagues.
As they calmed down, their gazes shifted to the mysterious trainer on the screen, and a question formed in their minds.
Who was this incredibly powerful trainer who had captured Palkia?
No one knew the answer.
The mask he wore concealed his identity, shrouding his face in mystery.
Groudon stumbled to its feet on the land, and Kyogre resurfaced.
They stared intently at the unfamiliar Pokemon hovering in the air.
Naoki, too, watched Groudon and Kyogre below.
He thought to himself that these two were incredibly persistent...
But this back-and-forth battle couldn't continue indefinitely. Naoki decided to try negotiating with them.
"Groudon, Kyogre, that's enough!"
"Stop fighting and return to where you belong!"
However, Groudon and Kyogre remained silent, their golden eyes fixed on Naoki and Palkia, showing no signs of backing down.
The rain intensified.
The sea turned pitch-black as the natural energy between heaven and earth was rapidly absorbed by the two legendary Pokemon.
In that moment, the two Pokemon acted in unison.
Groudon unleashed a scorching beam of energy, causing massive pillars of stone to shoot up from the sea.
Kyogre let out an ancient cry as it leaped from the water, its body surrounded by countless blue-white lights.
In a surprising turn of events, the two Pokemon simultaneously launched an attack on Palkia!
The viewers' hearts tightened as they witnessed this unexpected development.
The God of the Earth and the God of the Sea had joined forces!
What was happening?!
"I once heard an old man say that when two equally strong rival Pokemon are fighting, and a third party intervenes, they will temporarily join forces to repel the intruder before resuming their battle," someone murmured.
So, could Palkia withstand the combined might of these two legendary Pokemon?
"Boom!"
The clashing energies met in mid-air, and a deafening explosion echoed over the sea.
Palkia dove into the shadows, only to reappear high in the sky.
"You're trying to gang up on me?" Naoki instantly understood Groudon and Kyogre's intention.
If he recalled correctly, in the anime, when Latios stepped in to stop them, these two Pokemon would also join forces to attack him.
It seemed that in a battle between gods, no outsider was allowed to interfere.
Groudon and Kyogre remained silent, their golden eyes fixed on the hovering Palkia.
Groudon unleashed a thick, black-red beam from its mouth.
Kyogre, on the other hand, summoned a towering wave, sending it crashing towards Palkia.
"Dragonite, Thunderbolt!" Naoki ordered.
As his voice rang out, a purple aura enveloped Palkia's body, and it vanished from its original position.
Dragonite, once again, summoned a barrage of thunderbolts, striking Kyogre with full force.
How arrogant!
Groudon, who had fallen into the sea, suddenly leaped out of the water, and countless bluish-white lights shot out from its body, sending Dragonite crashing into the ocean.
At the same time, Giratina appeared behind Groudon.
The huge purple claws tore through the space and viciously slashed at Groudon.
"Roar!"
Groudon roared in pain.
It turned around and grabbed Giratina with its sturdy claws, intending to engage in a wild melee!
At such close range, Naoki could even see Groudon's face clearly!
"Destroyer Death Beam!" he shouted rapidly.
Giratina opened its mouth, and the terrifying black-red energy condensed within, turning into a thick beam that struck Groudon's chest.
The immense impact sent Groudon tumbling backward, leaving a massive gash in the ground.
However, just at that moment, Kyogre suddenly appeared behind Giratina.
Fierce water currents swiftly converged in its mouth, eventually transforming into a pressurized hydro pump that struck Giratina's tail.
The pain caused a reddish glow to appear in Giratina's eyes, and with a roar, it fell into a furious rage.
"..." Enough already!
Naoki shouted to Dragonite and then jumped off Giratina's head to avoid being caught in the crossfire of the three Legendary Pokemon's melee.
Dragonite locked eyes with Naoki, flapped its wings, and skillfully caught him with its back.
Below, in the sea, Giratina started to pummel the attacking Kyogre, attempting to drag it into the Reverse World.
But for some reason, perhaps due to Kyogre's slippery body, it soon wriggled free with a flick of its tail fin and returned to the open sea.
Groudon, on the other hand, harnessed the earth's energy to create the Sword of Ruins and attacked Giratina from behind.
Watching this unfold, Naoki frowned and said to Dragonite, "Summon it!"
It was better to leave this to the professionals!
"Roar!"
Dragonite nodded, indicating that it understood.
Meanwhile, the viewers watching the live broadcast noticed the mysterious trainer suddenly appearing on Dragonite's back.
"What's going on?"
"What happened?"
Just as everyone was puzzled, a distant dragon's roar approached.
Immediately after, a gap opened in the cloud-covered sky, and sacred light shone down upon the earth.
Accompanying this light was a mysterious Pokemon—a pitch-black, dragon-like creature.
Witnessing this, the researchers and officials at the Weather Institute stood up in surprise.
That's...
The legendary Sky God, Latios!
Wait! Did the mysterious trainer stop fighting to summon Latios?!
Soon, the events unfolding on the satellite screen confirmed their suspicions.
The black Latios flew to the mysterious trainer, glancing at him and then at Dragonite by his side.
Indeed, Latios had been summoned by him!
At this moment, not only the researchers and high-ranking officials but also the people in the shelter realized this.
"It is said that when the God of the Earth and the God of the Sea fight endlessly, the Sky God Latios will appear to stop them..."
"That's the legendary Sky God, Latios!"
"Who is that guy? Not only has he captured Giratina, but he can also summon Latios..."
Dai Wu was also bewildered.
Latios! Wing King has summoned Latios!
At this moment, Dai Wu's mind raced with countless speculations.
Has the Wing King captured Latios, or is he a descendant of the legendary Meteorite People?!
Either possibility was astonishing.
Above the sea.
Latios joined the battle.
2v2, an extremely fair double battle!
Groudon and Kyogre also noticed the suddenly appearing Latios, and their expressions turned solemn.
Latios, too, fixed his gaze on Groudon and Kyogre.
He recalled how the Pokemon had called him a great hero, and his heart swelled with determination.
Dragonite must have believed in him, so he summoned Latios to stop these two!
"Roar!"
Latios roared towards the sky, and today, in front of Dragonite, he would play the part of the great hero.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, a powerful energy surged within Latios.
The energy caused his entire body to turn green.
The next second, Latios shot forward like a drawn arrow.
A green line pierced the sky!
Groudon and Kyogre, on the sea's surface, were instantly skewered.
A violent explosion rocked the two Pokemon's bodies.
The agitated Giratina quickly followed up, emerging from the purple shadows and slashing at Kyogre with its claws.
Struck by two heavy blows, Kyogre let out a painful wail.
Kyogre, who had fallen into the sea, acted on instinct, turning around and plunging into the depths of the ocean, abandoning the fight altogether!
Groudon, struggling to its feet on land, turned and ran back the way it came.
Giratina flew to Naoki's side, watching the two retreating Pokemon with a laugh.
Naoki: "..."
With the departure of Groudon and Kyogre, the dark clouds covering the Hoenn region finally dissipated.
The heavy rain ceased, and the temperature gradually dropped.
The crisis had finally been averted.
Naoki breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, it was best to leave such matters to the professionals!
Giratina and Latios flew on either side of Naoki and Dragonite.
Dragonite looked at Latios with shining eyes, his voice filled with excitement:
"Roar!" (As expected of Latios, so amazing!)
Latios felt Dragonite's admiring gaze and opened his mouth in response: "Roar!"
Dragonite happily invited him: "Roar!" (Latios, come visit the ranch next time! I'll treat you to delicious food!)
"Roar!"
Latios readily agreed.
Dialga gazed at Latias' retreating form and remarked in a low voice, "That Pokemon is incredibly strong!"
Naoki thought to himself that it was indeed powerful; in the anime, it could take on seven opponents at once.
As he turned away, Naoki noticed that Kyogre had disappeared from the sea's surface, while Groudon was making its way back towards land.
Finally, it was over! He had intended to chase after Groudon to see how it returned home, but his attention was suddenly drawn to a helicopter in the distance.
The helicopter, belonging to Wisteria TV and the Hoenn League, hovered in the cloudless sky, with one of them attempting to fly towards him.
After a moment of silence, Naoki said to Dialga, "Let's head back too."
He had only come to help and had no intention of gaining fame, which was why he had concealed his true identity.
With the excitement over, Dialga, satisfied after stretching its body, brought Naoki back to the Reverse World.
Before leaving, Naoki looked down at Dai Wu and gave him a slight nod.
Then, he followed Dialga back into the Reverse World.
The people from the Hoenn League were left puzzled as they witnessed the mysterious trainer and Dialga vanish into thin air.
"He disappeared?"
"What a mysterious trainer!"
"It's a shame I didn't get a chance to thank him!"
"Regardless, he's a hero who saved the Hoenn region!"
Dai Wu stood up from the icy surface, picked up his Rotom Phone, and opened the chat interface with Wing King. He sent a simple message: "Thank you."
There was no immediate response.
Dai Wu scrolled through the chat history, and when he reached the part where the Wing King had said, "Me? I'm just a ranch owner," he couldn't help but feel a sense of disparity.
Capturing Dialga, summoning Latias, stopping the God of the Earth and the God of the Sea...
Could all of this truly be accomplished by a mere ranch owner?
At that moment, a look of bewilderment appeared on Dai Wu's face.
In the aftermath of the crisis, the Hoenn region was left in ruins, and the Gym Leaders and Hoenn League staff worked together with the people to rebuild their homes.
The disaster that struck the Hoenn region attracted widespread attention from other regions.
Particularly intriguing was the mysterious trainer who had appeared with Dialga.
Images of the trainer riding Dialga were uploaded online, and soon, netizens from other regions recognized the design of the mask he wore—it was inspired by the Pokemon Motostoke.
Because of this, people affectionately referred to the mysterious trainer as "Motorcycle Mask."
However, Naoki was still unaware of these developments as he had just returned to the ranch and changed out of his rain-soaked clothes.
The cloak he now wore had been prepared by his sister, Ai Kanshi, who, upon learning of his plans, had specially made it for him.
She insisted that it was a hero's essential accessory.
Despite Naoki's repeated claims that he wasn't a hero, Ai Kanshi had gone ahead and made the cloak for him anyway.
Relenting, Naoki had no choice but to wear it.
Nevertheless, now that everything was over, Naoki had caught a cold from being soaked in the rain.
He took a hot shower, wrapped himself in a blanket, and sipped the ginger tea that Ai Kanshi had brewed for him.
Beside him, Garchomp pouted, its eyes filled with reproach for being left behind during Naoki's outing.
"Achoo!"
Naoki sneezed, rubbed his nose, and said to Garchomp, "I had no choice. You're just too recognizable."
"Agas..." Garchomp hung its head dejectedly.
"Alright!" Naoki hugged Garchomp's head and vigorously rubbed it. "How about I promise to take you out next time?"
Only then did Garchomp agree.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Naoki opened it to find Kishu standing there with gifts in hand.
"Ta-da! Good afternoon, Naoki!" Kishu said cheerfully.
Naoki was surprised. "What brings you here so suddenly?"
"I promised to bring you some specialties from Niao Guang City—Niao Guang seaweed and Rousong Xiao Bei!" Kishu held up the bag she was carrying.
Naoki smiled and invited her in. "Please come in."
As soon as she entered the living room, Kishu spotted the Motostoke mask that Naoki had casually left on the coffee table.
Naoki's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly pretended to nonchalantly walk over, sit on the sofa, and hide the mask behind him.
Fortunately, Kishu didn't seem to pay it much mind.
She enthusiastically chatted with Naoki about the incident in the Hoenn region and the sudden appearance of Motorcycle Mask.
"That Motorcycle Mask is so amazing! He must be a very skilled trainer. It was truly terrifying to see those two Legendary Pokemon unleash such destructive power!"
"It's really unimaginable what kind of chaos they could have caused in the Padia region!"
Kishu shuddered at the thought.
She looked at Naoki, who seemed a little unwell, and asked, "But anyway, did you watch the live broadcast?"
"Huh?" Naoki snapped out of his reverie and quickly hid the mask. "Oh, yes, of course, I did."
Kishu was excited. "So, do you think that Motorcycle Mask could be from our Padia region?"
Naoki bluffed, "I'm not sure either. Motostoke Pokemon aren't exclusive to the Padia region, you know? Maybe it's a trainer from the Galar region? I've seen Motostoke Pokemon in Galar before."
Sometimes, trainers from other regions would bring Padia region Pokemon with them when they traveled, and over time, Pokemon like Motostoke and Yimouse became known in other regions as well.
