"Mewtwo, calm down first," Axel lightly patted the Poké Ball, holding back Mewtwo's impulse to burst out.
"Just so happens Gardevoir's strength has improved a lot recently. Let's first see what level Gardevoir has reached now."
"But don't worry, if it's necessary, I'll definitely call you out, alright?"
Mewtwo nodded, and the Poké Ball instantly quieted down.
Gardevoir still maintained her stance of facing off against Kyurem, showing not even the slightest retreat despite Kyurem clearly preparing to unleash ice-type moves.
Seeing her unyielding look, Axel decisively chose to give her his full support.
"Gardevoir, mega!"
The instant his words fell, the Key Stone on Axel's wrist released dazzling light.
The pendant at Gardevoir's pale neck also began to shine, rainbow brilliance covering the entire sky, linking the bond between Gardevoir and Axel.
A sudden emptiness welled inside Axel, his body going weak, nearly collapsing to the ground.
A faint fragrance drifted beside him, Lacey steadily supported Axel's body.
"Thanks," Axel nodded gently to Lacey, then turned his gaze back to the sky, to Gardevoir.
This was his first time letting the Fairy Queen fight in her mega form.
After mega evolution, Gardevoir's main appearance didn't change much. Just small winglike shapes appeared beside her ears, exactly the same as a normal Mega Gardevoir.
But Glastrier's body underwent enormous change.
Two ice-crystal wings sprouted from its back, giving it the power of flight.
"NEIGHHH!"
Glastrier clearly felt its agility had improved greatly.
Originally, when doing aerial battles, they relied heavily on Gardevoir's psychic power to move.
But now, Gardevoir no longer needed to worry about that, ["Glastrier's specialty is charging in and out, my best is mobility."
["Gardevoir, you focus on attacking, I'll dodge the enemy's skills!"]
Gardevoir nodded, her eyes glowing pink with fairy energy.
The next moment, the light in the sky dimmed.
A massive moon spread across the heavens, even faintly overshadowing Kyurem's ice crystals.
Kyurem's pupils shrank, the Ice Beam he was halfway through charging nearly collapsing.
In all his long life, this was the first time he had seen such absurd moonlight power.
From the moon burst forth a surge of fairy energy, making the whole sea crackle with sizzling sounds.
Under the moonlight's corrosion, the frozen surface shattered, roaring waves slapping against the water, splashing with booming thuds.
With the sky darkened, it felt like the terrifying end of the world.
Almost instinctively, Kyurem broke off Ice Beam, his body flashing with dazzling light.
Under the Fairy Queen's might, Kyurem was forced to use Protect.
Axel grinned, almost folding his arms unconsciously.
The fact that Kyurem used Protect meant he instinctively regarded Gardevoir as an opponent on his own level.
And that was the truth.
Without Protect, if Gardevoir's string of Moonblasts had landed, Kyurem would absolutely have suffered devastating damage.
Through this battle, Gardevoir had proven with strength. Her combat power had already reached the tier of first-rank gods.
After Protect, Kyurem's eyes filled with a storm of shifting emotions.
Confusion, doubt, fear, rage, all tangled together.
He couldn't understand.
That pokemon across from him clearly carried such a weak aura, so why could she unleash such overwhelming moves?
Facing Gardevoir's Moonblast just now, he even felt as if more than ten Gardevoirs were attacking him at once.
["Already scared?"], Gardevoir looked down from above, her gaze radiating a hint of disdain.
["A creature this weak dares to call my master a crawling insect?"]
["Tell me, who is the crawling insect?"]
["You were just born earlier, that's all. If you and I lived in the same era—"]
["Then you... would have no qualification to even stand before my master!"]
"ROAR!", Facing Gardevoir's sharp tongue, Kyurem couldn't think of a single rebuttal.
He was clearly stronger than Gardevoir, yet his type was heavily restrained.
His mighty dragon-type moves couldn't harm her, and though his ice-type moves weren't resisted, that Ho-Oh over there gave him no chance to freeze the battlefield.
Even worse, this opponent seemed to perfectly know the weaknesses of ice moves.
Those massive ice pillars had been pierced through with precision, so which of them was really the ice-type here?
Suddenly, Kyurem's gaze fell to the Glastrier beneath Gardevoir, and realization dawned.
It was that Glastrier causing trouble.
["Glastrier, crawl back to your Galar region!"]
Glastrier blinked, then glanced at the Eternatus Poké Ball hanging at Axel's waist.
Recalling Gardevoir's terrifying power just shown, and that monster from the anime still not even revealed, Glastrier straightened his back.
["This is the Galar region!"]
Kyurem: "???"
'I only slept for a few thousand years and you've annexed my homeland?'
["Crawling insect, you've succeeded in provoking my wrath."]
"NEIGHHH!", Glastrier opened its mouth, sticking its tongue out at Kyurem in a mocking "blehh" gesture.
At the same time, countless fairy-queen-shaped ice sculptures appeared behind Glastrier, all perfectly synchronized, making the exact same expression at Kyurem.
["AHHH, I'll kill you!"], Kyurem's eyes turned blood-red, a storm of ice energy exploding outward.
Even Ho-Oh struggled to resist the extreme cold, the boundary between ice and fire pushing dozens of meters closer toward the town.
Kyurem's aura instantly grew terrifying...
———
Inside the Dark Stone and Light Stone space, Zekrom and Reshiram trembled violently.
"It's over, it's over, this guy's gone berserk."
"Kyurem with awareness is nothing scary, it's the mindless Kyurem that's the monster."
"Run, let's run!"
"Run from what?", From behind them, Rayquaza's nearly solid phantom stood calm-faced.
"The General has delivered your couple's meal, now control yourselves, stop resisting each other."
"When the time comes, pass me the energy of yin and yang in harmony. I'll help you suppress this lunatic."
When Rayquaza spoke, his voice carried calm confidence, along with faint majesty.
The time until he could fully emerge, less than half an hour remained.
As long as Black Dragon and White Dragon didn't drop the ball, Rayquaza was confident that the moment he came out, he could recover seventy percent of his past life's strength.
At that time, combined with that hot-tempered little Gardevoir by Axel's side, suppressing Kyurem would be effortless.
