Chapter 667: Galar, Your King Has Returned!
Chapter 667: Galar, Your King Has Returned!
In Kenkan City, as Omegaton absorbed the energy from the entire Galer Region and transformed into its Infinite Gigantamax Form, the rampaging Gigantamax Pokemon across the region returned to their original forms.
The crisis brought about by the uncontrolled Gigantamax Pokemon was temporarily averted, and the survivors turned their gazes skyward, witnessing the two figures fighting for the Galer Region and the colossal, mysterious creature.
"What is that thing?"
"Is it a Pokemon?"
"Nightfall... That's Nightfall! There's a legend in the Galer Region about Nightfall, which nearly destroyed the region a thousand years ago. It was only stopped by two heroes!"
Nightfall?
Many locals of the Galer Region were familiar with this term.
Recalling the recent events, a thought suddenly flashed through their minds.
Could this mysterious creature be the true culprit behind Nightfall? Despite the terrifying scene, for some reason, the sight of those two figures high in the sky instilled a sense of inexplicable reassurance.
Dante and Shintaro, the two strongest Trainers in the world, would surely put an end to this!
Meanwhile, in the Paldea Region, at Shintaro's Ranch.
Leocrown, leisurely sipping tea in the flower garden and basking in the warm sunlight, seemed to sense something. Its movements suddenly halted.
That aura...
The guy has awakened!
Leocrown abruptly lifted its head, its gaze piercing through countless moments and spaces, witnessing the spectacle unfolding above Kenkan City.
Shintaro was there.
Growlithe and Magmar had also arrived at the scene.
With them present, defeating Omegaton once and for all wouldn't be a problem.
Leocrown retracted its gaze, intending to continue drinking its tea, but after taking a sip, the impact of Nightfall's revival lingered in its mind.
A thousand years ago, they had tried to stop this, but in the end, both sides suffered heavy losses.
And now...
Feeling the awakening of Nightfall, Leocrown couldn't shake off its concerns.
It set down its tea, and in the gaze of the Come-Along Tea and the Fearow Pot, it slowly rose to its feet. The next moment, its figure vanished from its original spot.
The ceremony for the Eight Master Champions was abruptly interrupted, quickly catching the attention of viewers from other regions who were watching the live stream.
In no time, the internet was abuzz with discussions about the Galer Region.
Amidst this, someone quickly took out their Rotom Phone, recorded the scene, and live-streamed it on the internet.
As viewers from other regions, unaware of the situation, flooded into the live stream, they immediately witnessed the spectacular scene unfolding above Kenkan City.
The chat went wild with comments.
[Arceus! What's that giant claw protruding from the clouds?]
[Wait! I see Dante and Shintaro!]
[Oh my! What happened to Kenkan City? Did an earthquake strike?]
[What? Is that Pokemon causing all this chaos?]
[That Pokemon looks incredibly powerful! I remember when Arceus appeared, it wasn't this dramatic. Can Shintaro and the others handle it?]
[They definitely can! Shintaro is the legendary Trainer who defeated the creator god Arceus!]
The viewers in the live stream chose to believe.
Meanwhile, in the Reverse World, the famous Regidrago also learned about the awakening of a rogue Pokemon from Rotom.
"Reporting to Loze! A rogue Pokemon has appeared in the Galer Region, and Shintaro is battling it!"
As Rotom switched to the live stream, Regidrago opened its eyes, instantly witnessing the oppressive scene.
The giant claw protruding from the purple-black clouds seemed to want to crush Shintaro.
And so, the hot-tempered but deeply loyal famous Pokemon couldn't stand by.
In this world, no Pokemon could bully Shintaro!
Regidrago let out a loud roar and immediately twisted its massive body, moving swiftly towards Shintaro's direction.
"Watch out!"
As Omegaton amassed its Gigantamax energy once more, Dante immediately shouted a warning.
That attack's power could reduce even skyscrapers to rubble, and if it hit, one might not die but would surely suffer severe injuries.
"Of course," Shintaro smiled.
Despite Omegaton's seemingly formidable power after Infinite Gigantamax, its massive body was somewhat cumbersome, having never moved before. It stood like a stationary cannon, relentlessly bombarding the area below.
A purplish-red beam shot forth from the center of Omegaton's giant claw.
Shintaro and Dante swiftly flew to avoid it, while Growlithe and Magmar transformed into streaks of light and soared into the air.
Just as Shintaro thought the Hyper Beam would hit the ground, he suddenly noticed a massive membrane appearing out of thin air above them.
Immediately after, a figure riding a white Pokemon arrived, landing behind the membrane.
"Boom!"
The Hyper Beam slammed into the membrane, but it remained unmoved.
That's... Leocrown?! The viewers watching the live stream were shocked.
Growlithe and Magmar also noticed this scene in an instant.
What surprised them was that the King's power had seemingly returned! No, it seemed even stronger than before!
Seeing its attack blocked, Omegaton instantly flew into a rage.
It unleashed the Hyper Beam again, but it couldn't penetrate Leocrown's Psychic Shield.
At that moment, a purple spatial vortex suddenly appeared high in the sky.
Accompanied by a furious roar, Regidrago's figure emerged from within.
In the instant it entered the real world, it fired a Shadow Ball directly at Omegaton's face.
[Ahhhh! Regidrago has appeared too!]
[So exciting! Are they all here to help? Amazing! Keep it up, everyone! Together, let's defeat that Pokemon!]
Shintaro: "..."
Seeing Leocrown and Regidrago's face, Shintaro was utterly astonished.
In reality, the combined might of Pupitar, Growlithe, Magmar, Dante, and Gogoat was more than enough to counter Omegaton.
Even without him, Dante alone could have defeated Omegaton with the power of Growlithe and Magmar.
But now, Regidrago and Leocrown had also joined the fray...
You guys are just determined not to let Omegaton live, aren't you!
However, Shizuru was ready to leave everything to Leocrown, entrusting the resolution of this millennia-old grudge to the former King of Galar.
"Is Leocrown here too?" Dante turned towards Omegaton, a smile spreading across his face. "If we didn't finish it off a thousand years ago, this time, we will not repeat the same mistake!"
"King!"
"King!"
Growlithe and Magmar, the brother and sister duo, shouted in unison.
Leocrown blocked Omegaton's attacks, slowly turning its head towards them, and spoke with regal authority:
"You two, join me in defeating it once and for all!"
With the King's presence, Growlithe and Magmar were filled with confidence.
"Yes!"
The siblings transformed into beams of light and flew to Leocrown's side.
Leocrown's thoughts stirred, and the massive barrier before them shattered Omegaton's Hyper Beam.
It raised its hand high, exuding the aura of a true monarch, as terrifying Ice-type energy gathered and rapidly condensed into the shape of a spear.
Ice Lance!
Seeing the King's attack, Growlithe and Magmar followed suit.
Growlithe clenched the Fairy Sword in its mouth, its body enveloped in a dazzling light, transforming into a ball of light as it slashed towards Omegaton.
Beast Slash!
Magmar, keeping pace with its sister, had its King's Shield expand, enveloping its entire body, turning it into a cannonball that slammed into Omegaton high above.
Beast Ball!
Witnessing this, Dante's excitement surged: "Let's join them!"
"Charizard, Flame Jet!"
"Multi-Dragon Baltor, Dragon Pulse!"
"How can we miss out on this?" Shizuru was equally inspired by the scene: "Gogoat, give it your all! Aim for the core and use Dragon Dive!"
"Pupitar, Beast Hammer!"
The two trainers issued their commands almost simultaneously.
The Pokemon sprang into action.
Charizard's mouth erupted with scorching flames, Multi-Dragon Baltor's mouth unleashed purple dragon energy, and Gogoat, bathed in red light, charged towards Omegaton. Pupitar's hammer, empowered by the King's aura, grew to an immense size. It raised the hammer above its head and slammed it down on Omegaton.
Ice Lance, Beast Slash, Beast Ball, Beast Hammer, Flame Jet, Dragon Pulse, and Dragon Dive...
Seven powerful moves converged from different directions, assaulting Omegaton.
At this moment, the live broadcast of the Master Eight Finals had resumed without anyone noticing.
Viewers worldwide sat before their televisions, witnessing this spectacular scene.
Omegaton attempted to counter with its Hyper Beam.
However, faced with the onslaught of attacks as swift as a flood, it had nowhere to hide!
The Ice Lance instantly crushed Omegaton's most prized attack, mercilessly piercing its massive body.
Growlithe and Magmar followed closely behind.
"Boom!"
The colossal energies collided, resulting in an intensely violent explosion.
High above, it was as if a dazzling firework had been set off.
Amidst the fireworks, Omegaton let out agonizing wails, its massive body exploding and gradually losing all its strength.
Countless purple orbs of light flew out from its body, scattering across the Galar region.
These were the Gigantamax Energies that Omegaton had absorbed from the energy points.
As these energies dispersed, Omegaton's body gradually returned to its original state within a burst of light.
The darkness that had enveloped the entire Galar region finally lifted, and rays of golden sunlight pierced through the clouds, illuminating the renewed Galar landscape.
Leocrown surveyed the familiar yet foreign land, its heart filled with complex emotions.
Once upon a time, it had run freely with its beloved steed in this very place.
But now, everything had changed, and the people were no longer the same.
Enough!
Leocrown let out a slow sigh.
From this day forward, there would no longer be a King of Galar, only a farmer Pokemon living on Shizuru's ranch.
In the live stream, countless viewers were captivated by the sight of Leocrown, towering above the sky, its regal gaze surveying the land.
[Is that the King of Galar?]
[So powerful...]
[Just looking at it makes you want to bow in submission.]
Countless people clicked their camera shutters and took screenshots, capturing Leocrown's kingly presence overlooking the world.
Meanwhile, Shizuru and Dante arrived at Omegaton's location.
After Omegaton's Infinite Gigantamax form was released, it fell into the ruins below.
The light on its body had faded, and the pink core in its chest had become dim and lifeless.
Dante, gazing at Omegaton, suddenly spoke: "Shizuru, quickly, throw a Poke Ball and capture it!"
Shizuru was taken aback: "You're not going to capture it?"
He was well aware of Chairman Loze's plan and the significance of Omegaton to the Galar region.
In fact, the worldwide craze for Gigantamax battles could be traced back to Omegaton's powerful muscles.
However, Dante shook his head with a smile, responding to Shizuru's question.
"If we leave it in the Galar region, one day, it will awaken again, and the darkness will return to this land."
"While its energy is the origin of Gigantamax in the Galar region, Chairman Loze intends to use it to solve the future energy crisis. But doing so would leave a hidden danger."
"Consider this a request. I ask you to capture Omegaton and, with Leocrown's power, keep it safe."
As Dante spoke, he turned to Shizuru.
Shizuru paused for a moment before asking, "But what if the energy in the Galar region truly runs out in the future?"
Dante smiled, revealing his teeth. "Before that, we will definitely find a path that truly belongs to us!"
Shizuru was slightly taken aback but quickly smiled in response, "I understand. Since that's the case, I'll accept your request and take good care of Omegaton."
However, as Shizuru patted his pocket, he embarrassingly realized he didn't have an empty Poke Ball on him.
"Use this!" Dante handed him a purple Poke Ball. "This is the latest model developed by Malak Computing. It's called the Master Ball, and it's the best Poke Ball currently available."
Master Ball...
Shizuru's thoughts momentarily paused. He had been about to say that this might be a bit too extravagant, but in the end, he didn't voice his concern. Instead, he took the Master Ball from Dante and aimed it at Omegaton, capturing it.
Even a Pokemon like Omegaton, after being captured, didn't cause the Master Ball to shake at all.
"Alright!" Dante finally showed a bright and cheerful smile. "The award ceremony isn't over yet. If you don't mind, head to the Kenkan City Arena! I have some matters to attend to, and I'll visit your farm later when I have the chance."
"Sure."
The two parted ways, and as Dante hurried off, it wasn't hard to guess his destination.
The Galar region had undergone such drastic changes, and the originator of it all was Chairman Loze.
If Dante's guess was correct, from now on, he would purchase the Loze Building, transform it into a Battle Tower, and succeed Loze as the chairman of the Galar Pokemon League.
Shizuru took a deep breath, then, carrying Omegaton's Poke Ball, he found the Riding Goat and Leocrown.
Growlithe and Magmar were nowhere to be seen, which puzzled Shizuru. "Where are Growlithe and Magmar?"
Leocrown spoke softly, "They're going to meet Dante."
Shizuru nodded, understanding that with the change in the plot, Growlithe and Magmar's chosen one was no longer Yu and Hop, but Dante.
Regidrago, who had come to join the fun, asked, "Are we going back to the farm?"
"You guys go ahead! I have something else to take care of," Shizuru said, patting the big guy's head with a smile. "Thanks so much for coming to help this time."
This showed that Regidrago had a mind of its own.
Regidrago hummed arrogantly. Although it had originally intended to come and teach a lesson to the Pokemon that had bullied Shizuru, it ended up just showing off and making the dragon feel embarrassed.
At that moment, a group of excited people ran over from a distance.
"Look, your fans are here!" Shizuru pointed at them.
Regidrago felt that in reality, it should maintain some dignity, or else those humans might get too familiar.
"I'm heading back!"
After saying this, Regidrago's expression changed, and it pretended to be cold and indifferent as it looked at the people. Then, it turned around, tore open a rift in space, and slipped through it.
A series of actions filled with coolness.
Compared to Regidrago, Leocrown was much more ordinary.
Its gentle gaze fell on Shizuru, and it said, "I'll wait for you at the farm."
Shizuru nodded, and just then, Leocrown's figure disappeared from where it stood.
It must have used Instant Transmission to travel from the Galar region to the Paldea region.
With Leocrown's current power, this was not a difficult task.
With Regidrago and Leocrown gone, the humans could only turn their attention to Shizuru.
Shizuru reluctantly responded to a few questions before finding an excuse to leave.
He found the Gogoat and Pupitar and the Riding Goats in the city, then returned to the Palace Gate Arena.
There, Dante had already informed the League staff to continue the award ceremony for him.
Shizuru held the trophy, surrounded by a group of Pokemon.
Gogoat stood on his left, Swift Dragon on the right, and the three Riding Goats were positioned on both sides. Pupitar rode on one of the Riding Goats.
"Get ready, we're taking the champion team photo!" The Galar League staff member said, "Come on, say 'Cheese'!"
"Cheese!"
"Maa!"
"Ba Mo!"
"Agasy!"
"Roar~"
"Click!"
As the shutter clicked, Swift Dragon suddenly hugged Shizuru with its chubby claws.
The scene froze.
In another part of Kenkan City.
Dante looked at Chairman Loze and Olive, who were being led away by Ms. Junsa, feeling a mix of emotions.
Sonia had already been released by Loze.
The moment she saw Dante, Sonia anxiously asked, "How is it? What about Omegaton?"
"Don't worry! With Shizuru's help, it's all over!" Dante smiled at her, looking a bit silly.
Sonia heaved a sigh of relief. "That's great."
Just then, her peripheral vision caught two figures slowly approaching from behind Dante.
Seeing them, Sonia froze in her tracks.
Were they... Sword King Growlithe and Shield King Magmar?
Dante also turned around, looking at the two Pokemon that had followed.
Growlithe and Magmar had come to thank and bid farewell to Dante.
The human's courage and determination to save the Galar region had revitalized the once-rusty sword and shield, my friends, a true pleasure!
"Thank you," Growlithe conveyed through telepathy.
"The Galar region is also our home, so there's no need for thanks," Dante said.
Growlithe and Magmar remained silent, glancing at Dante and Sonia for a moment before turning to leave.
Seeing this, Dante hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?" Were they heading back to the Hero King's Court in the Slumbering Weald?
Growlithe and Magmar turned back and said,
"To find our king!"
