"Speaking of which, why do I feel like all these powerful Legendaries can 'transform'?"
Wallace couldn't help but inwardly complain.
He suddenly realized it really seemed to be the case.
Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, and now Kyurem before them, all could 'transform'.
And those that couldn't transform, like Zekrom, were significantly weaker than those that could.
"Now isn't the time to be talking about that, is it?" Steven's mouth twitched. He felt that Wallace's thoughts were indeed too erratic.
"Sigh…"
Alder just wanted to sigh. He truly felt exhausted.
They had come to find Kyurem to ask for its help, but now they were actually fighting Kyurem.
Although they had mentally prepared for a potential misunderstanding and conflict with Kyurem when they first arrived, this was undoubtedly the worst possible outcome.
The main issue was, without Kyurem's help, how would they drive out Team Rockets next?
Alder was incredibly hesitant. He had never intended to eliminate Team Rockets, because he knew very well that he didn't have the ability to do so.
But the best outcome would be to force Team Rockets out of the Unova region.
Mammon controlled Primal Kyogre, which meant he had a 'mutual destruction' bargaining chip. So, unless they had absolute certainty, it was almost impossible to take down Mammon.
But it wasn't impossible to use force to drive Team Rockets, led by Mammon, out of Unova. Mammon only wanted to establish a foothold in Unova to develop Team Rockets.
He couldn't just let Primal Kyogre recklessly unleash the Primordial Sea; not only would that completely ruin his reputation, but what benefit would it bring him?
Mammon wasn't a fool, so after considering everything, Alder felt that trying to get Kyurem's help was a perfectly viable plan.
But now, it was clear that Kyurem was unwilling to help them.
In that case…
Alder pondered that if there truly was no other way, and if it was like the Hoenn region, they would just have to accept Team Rockets.
Otherwise, what could he do? The key was that they couldn't win, and he didn't want a Dark Organization to Ingrain itself in his region, after all, who knew what Team Rockets would do in the future?
But not being able to win was the most crucial problem.
"Kyurem, we don't want to conflict with you. Can't we talk this out properly?" Giovanni said in a deep voice to Dark Kyurem.
He felt that Dark Kyurem was truly too overbearing and completely unreasonable.
"Roar~!"
However, Dark Kyurem didn't respond to Giovanni this time. Instead, it roared again, and the turbine on its tail began to spin continuously, with blue-white energy constantly condensing.
The energy formed a spherical orb, gradually growing larger and enveloping Dark Kyurem. Electricity crackled and flashed, appearing ethereal and beautiful.
The Ice-type Ice Burn! Dark Kyurem's exclusive move!
"Groudon, Precipice Blades!"
Upon seeing this, Giovanni immediately ordered Primal Groudon.
Primal Groudon let out a low growl, its entire body glowing with a rich red light. Its right claw lifted and then slammed heavily onto the ground.
Rumble!
The ground trembled violently, and massive lava swords, flowing with scorching magma, rose from the ground, quickly spreading towards Dark Kyurem.
The Ground-type Precipice Blades! Groudon's exclusive move!
Dark Kyurem swooped down at high speed, colliding heavily with the incoming Precipice Blades.
Boom!
Ice Burn and Precipice Blades collided violently, blue-white and crimson energies fiercely clashing, and powerful waves of air constantly spread out.
As the strong wind and shockwaves reverberated, Giovanni and the others immediately sent out their main Pokemon to block in front using Protect.
Otherwise, just being hit by these air currents would be no laughing matter.
But with Dark Kyurem's roar, Ice Burn continuously advanced, shattering one lava giant sword after another, finally rushing to Primal Groudon's front.
"High Horsepower!" Giovanni said in a deep voice.
Primal Groudon blocked with its claws in front, and a yellowish-brown energy lit up.
Primal Groudon forcibly withstood Ice Burn. Under Dark Kyurem's terrifying impact, Primal Groudon's body was continuously pushed back, its feet leaving two deep marks on the ground.
At the same time, Ice Burn's powerful ice energy continuously eroded Primal Groudon's arms along the points of contact.
Bang!
Ice Burn finally ran out of power, and Dark Kyurem used the momentum to retreat, floating back up.
"Hiss!"
Upon seeing Primal Groudon clearly, Wallace gasped.
Primal Groudon's arms were already covered with a faint layer of ice crystals, left behind by Ice Burn.
This…
Primal Groudon is Ground/Fire type. Although Ground is weak to Ice, Fire also resists Ice, so Ice does not have a type advantage against Primal Groudon.
But the key was, as a Fire-type Legendary Pokemon, Primal Groudon's body temperature was extremely high!
This could be seen from the lava energy at the seams of Primal Groudon's armor; Primal Groudon's body temperature must be very high.
And for it, to still be frozen with ice crystals, showed how terrifying Dark Kyurem's Ice-type attack was.
"So strong!" Steven's brows furrowed.
Although it was only one move, Kyurem's dominance was already evident; Primal Groudon had fallen into a disadvantage.
The red light on Primal Groudon's body lit up again, and under the sunlight of Desolate Land, the ice crystals on its arms rapidly melted.
"Roar~"
Dark Kyurem roared again, and the turbine on its tail suddenly ignited with a fierce flame.
The flame quickly spread over Dark Kyurem's entire body, and in the blink of an eye, Kyurem's form changed again.
Its base body color turned to gray and white, a long white feather appeared on its head, its left forelimb became a white winged palm, and the turbine on its tail also turned white.
White Kyurem!
"Its form changed again!" Wallace's eyes widened in astonishment.
"This is a form similar to Reshiram. It can actually change into two forms."
Cynthia's delicate brows furrowed. Being able to change into two forms was truly too exaggerated.
And Kyurem's two forms were very easy to guess, as it possessed many features similar to Zekrom and Reshiram.
"Roar~!"
The turbine on White Kyurem's tail glowed with a scorching red light, and blue-purple energy continuously accumulated, forming a giant sphere.
The Ice-type Ice Burn! White Kyurem's exclusive move!
"Kyurem, if you are dissatisfied with my previous remarks about Zekrom and Reshiram, I can apologize to you."
Giovanni narrowed his eyes slightly and spoke to White Kyurem.
"But what's the point of unleashing your violence and anger on us? If you're unhappy that the Black Dragon and White Dragon's reputation is stronger than yours, you should go find them and prove your own strength, shouldn't you?"
Giovanni had clearly noticed that Kyurem's first move was when he mentioned Zekrom and Reshiram.
Perhaps, as Kyurem, formed from the remaining shell of the Unova Dragon God, its attitude towards Reshiram and Zekrom was not very good.
"Ridiculous. What good is such a false reputation? And those wastes, the Black Dragon and White Dragon, what right do they have to be compared to me?"
White Kyurem's deep telepathic voice carried a strong sneer.
In its opinion, both the Black Dragon and the White Dragon were laughable.
They were its 'siblings,' yet they pursued useless things like 'truth' and 'ideals.' Pure good-for-nothings.
White Kyurem had always scoffed at them.
"Yes, that's true, but besides you, who else knows?" Giovanni said noncommittally.
From White Kyurem's words, Giovanni could clearly sense that White Kyurem's perception of the Black Dragon and White Dragon was not good; it could even be called hostile.
"No one knows you, Kyurem. No one knows that your power is far stronger than Zekrom and Reshiram. They only know the Black Dragon and White Dragon that split from the Dragon God back then."
Giovanni continued speaking to White Kyurem.
White Kyurem remained silent, but its golden dragon eyes constantly flickered with a cold light.
However, the massive Ice Burn energy in front of White Kyurem slowly dissipated.
"You need to emerge into the world, let history remember this glorious period. The Black Dragon and White Dragon are actually far inferior to you, Kyurem, aren't they?"
"Heh~ Humans, the targets you want me to help you deal with are the heroes chosen by the Black Dragon and White Dragon, aren't they?"
White Kyurem looked down at Giovanni, its dragon eyes arrogant.
Giovanni had been subtly guiding it on purpose; how could it not sense that?
It was just reclusive and didn't like to wander outside, but it wasn't stupid.
"Exactly." Giovanni did not deny it.
"We have a common enemy, Kyurem."
"Don't misunderstand, I'm not here to help you."
White Kyurem slowly ascended, its gaze fixed on the distance. It could sense the presence of the Black Dragon and White Dragon.
As parts of the original Unova Dragon God, they were the most 'intimate' 'siblings,' so as long as they weren't too far apart or hiding their presence, they could sense each other.
White Kyurem slowly bared its teeth, its ferocious dragon face enough to make one tremble.
"But what you said makes some sense. Black Dragon, White Dragon, I've let them 'play' outside for too long. They should return to my body."
White Kyurem instantly shot up into the sky, disappearing.
Its body had been empty for too long; it needed to fill it with 'truth' and 'ideals.'
And the true Unova Dragon God… should be it, Kyurem!
Primal Groudon looked up at the direction White Kyurem disappeared, falling into thought, and a faint sadness rose in its heart.
Why are others both strong and able to fly? It really wanted to try the feeling of flying…
Forget it, as the dignified overlord of the earth, standing on the ground was the right thing to do! Flying? Not even a dog would want it!
"Phew~"
As White Kyurem left, Wallace couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
It had to be said, White Kyurem's oppressive presence was simply too strong, stemming from its powerful strength, rough personality, and various other aspects.
"It seems it's going to find Reshiram and Zekrom first."
Diantha pondered, then looked at Giovanni.
"Gym Leader Giovanni, you fanned the flames well!" Diantha couldn't help but admire.
If Giovanni hadn't provoked Kyurem with his words, they probably wouldn't have fared well today. The best outcome would have been Primal Groudon leading them to escape.
After all, from the brief exchange, Kyurem's strength was superior to Primal Groudon's.
"It was a last resort." Giovanni shook his head. He was truly breaking his heart and teeth for the Alliance!
He had truly done his best!
"But I'm still quite curious about what Kyurem said at the end, 'They should return to my body.' What does that mean?"
Cynthia voiced her confusion.
"I don't know. Could Kyurem actually eat Zekrom and Reshiram?"
Wallace said playfully.
After all, according to Unova legends, Kyurem, Zekrom, and Reshiram all originated from the Unova Dragon God.
So, as the strongest Kyurem, could it absorb Zekrom and Reshiram and reform into the original Unova Dragon God?
"Who knows, let's go out first."
Giovanni recalled Groudon. Kyurem had left, so there was no point in them staying here.
The group left the Glacier Canyon and arrived outside the Giant Chasm.
But as soon as they got outside, looking at the withered grass and trees, Steven and the others had varied expressions.
"It's a good thing Gym Leader Giovanni had Groudon control the range. That ability is truly terrifying."
Diantha couldn't help but exclaim. Indeed, these withered trees and grass were all scorched to death by the intense sunlight caused by Desolate Land.
It could only be said that thanks to Primal Groudon now obeying Giovanni, otherwise, if it unrestrainedly spread Desolate Land, the drought caused by the fierce sunlight would be no less catastrophic than the Primordial Sea.
"You're right." Cynthia and the others strongly agreed.
Giovanni wore a subtle smile. As expected of his Groudon, Giovanni was quite satisfied with the destructive power of Desolate Land.
"Let's go back first. I just don't know if Kyurem will go find Zekrom or Reshiram first."
