—------------------—
Origin Forme Giratina emerged.
A majestic and heavy divine Aura Heart permeated the heavens and earth, and the dark, heavy sky poured rain, adding to Origin Forme Giratina's oppressive presence.
"This pressure... it's amazing!"
Mammon slowly bared his white teeth, a grin spreading across his face.
Facing the strongest of Sinnoh's Six Founding Deities, Origin Forme Giratina, this feeling... it was incredible!
(I'm truly exhausted.jpg)
A low, hoarse dragon's roar echoed through the sky as Origin Forme Giratina raised its ferocious dragon head high, and an incredibly pure Energy Ball condensed before its mouth.
Draco Meteor, a Dragon-type move!
The Draco Meteor, seemingly containing the myriad phenomena of stars, ascended into the sky, then exploded violently upon reaching its zenith.
One by one, dragon meteors with small fiery tails rained down, like a brilliant and beautiful meteor shower.
However, this meteor shower was deadly!
"Protect!"
Mammon immediately gave the order; clashing head-on with Draco Meteor was highly unwise.
Primal Kyogre immediately raised a green Protect barrier.
And Origin Forme Giratina, at this moment, also swooped down, following the dragon meteors.
"Psychic!"
Dark Mewtwo Y's eyes glowed with a deep, profound Green light, aiming its control-type Psychic at Giratina.
However, Giratina's figure became illusory again, and the control-type Psychic couldn't capture its form.
If Dark Mewtwo Y had eyebrows, they would surely be furrowed now. How could such a thing happen?
Giratina's figure was clearly visible to the naked eye, but attacks and moves couldn't touch it, as if it wasn't in this space.
"Shadow Sneak, it can actually be used like this in this world."
Mammon narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the illusory, ferocious dragon shadow.
This was undoubtedly Giratina's exclusive move, Shadow Sneak; there was no mistake.
In the games, Shadow Sneak was merely a superior alternative to Phantom Force, both being Ghost-type physical moves.
Shadow Sneak's power was higher than Phantom Force's.
But in reality, Phantom Force involved the Pokémon entering a deep spatial rift, then appearing next to the opponent to attack.
However, the manifestation of Shadow Sneak now appeared to be completely different. When Giratina's figure became illusory, although its shadow could still be caught by the eye, its actual body was already in a different dimension, so attacks would only pass through its illusory shadow.
But in doing so, this move became extremely buggy.
Because as long as Giratina wished, its body could instantly shift into the alternate dimension, constantly switching between solid and ethereal forms, allowing it to easily evade the opponent's attacks and approach them to strike.
A very rogue move.
Rumble! Rumbled!
Dragon meteors continuously crashed onto Spear Pillar. This temple, which had become a ruin during the Hisui era due to the conflict between the Spatial and Temporal Deities, was once again subjected to a barrage of explosions.
Intense roars filled the air, and surging shockwaves swept and overflowed.
The Lake Guardians used Psychic to carry Cynthia and Caitlin backward, avoiding being caught in the attacks.
Primal Kyogre shielded them from above, its Protect barrier enduring the impact of one dragon meteor after another.
When the Draco Meteor onslaught finally ceased and the Protect barrier shattered, Primal Kyogre looked up, and what met its eyes was Giratina, already closing in.
Giratina's body shimmered with an eerie glow—Shadow Sneak!
"Ice Beam!"
Primal Kyogre quickly retreated, Ice Beam condensing.
Although Primordial Sea's weather was currently pouring heavy rain, Dragon-type Giratina had resistance to Water-type moves.
So, in reality, Primal Kyogre could only use Ice-type moves to attack.
The Ice Beam snaked and twisted towards Giratina, but Giratina forcefully pushed through it.
Boom!
Giratina slammed into the Ice Beam, Shadow Sneak relentlessly pushing the Ice Beam forward.
Finally, it crashed heavily into Primal Kyogre's body.
Primal Kyogre cried out in pain, its massive body sent flying by Giratina's impact.
Giratina's dragon eyes were cold and merciless, and lightning flashed across its body.
Thunder, an Electric-type move!
"Dark Pulse!"
Dark Mewtwo Y swiftly shot out a black wave of energy.
Giratina's figure instantly became illusory again, and the Dark Pulse passed right through Giratina's body.
It was clearly visible that the illusory Giratina turned its head and began to attack Dark Mewtwo Y.
Seeing this, Dark Mewtwo Y immediately retreated.
"This move is truly too strong."
Caitlin, watching the battle, furrowed her delicate brows. This ability to become illusory at will was simply too unfair.
As long as it could be detected in advance, wouldn't it be impossible for any move to hit it?
"Hmm, it transforms from solid to ethereal, seemingly without even needing a second, and there appear to be no limitations."
Cynthia nodded. She observed carefully that Giratina's transformation from solid to ethereal and back was always like this.
"I wonder how Mammon will defeat it."
Caitlin looked towards Mammon, her heart still filled with confidence in him.
It must be said, this time's Giratina was quite different from the previous two, Black Rayquaza and Kyurem, the Dragon God.
Black Rayquaza and Kyurem were purely exaggerated stat monsters, while this Origin Forme Giratina was not only incredibly strong itself but also a 'gimmick monster.'
Such opponents were indeed very difficult to deal with.
"Mewtwo!"
The illusory Giratina charged wildly, constantly closing in, but because Giratina was in its ethereal form, even using moves to stop it was impossible.
Dark Mewtwo Y had no choice but to stop, raising a purple-black Psychic barrier.
Seeing this, Giratina immediately reverted to its solid form, and the sharp spikes on both sides of its body glowed with an eerie light.
Shadow Claw, a Ghost-type move!
Giratina's massive body weaved, accelerating sharply as it neared Dark Mewtwo.
Screech! Screech! Screech!
The sharp Shadow Claws continuously cut through Dark Mewtwo Y's Psychic barrier, emitting a series of startling, teeth-grinding cutting sounds.
However, Dark Mewtwo Y's Psychic barrier was truly very resilient.
Giratina charged past Dark Mewtwo Y, instantly turned around, and prepared to attack again.
Giratina could feel that Dark Mewtwo Y's Psychic was strong, but even the strongest Psychic would eventually run out, especially for someone like Dark Mewtwo Y, who was so...
It now only needed to attack, heavily depleting Dark Mewtwo Y's Psychic power.
"Use Psychic to grab it!"
The moment Giratina turned around, Dark Mewtwo Y immediately used Psychic, attempting to grab Giratina.
However, as if it had anticipated this, a deep spatial rift appeared in front of Giratina, and Giratina directly plunged into it.
Phantom Force!
"Quite experienced in battle, aren't they?"
Mammon couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. In reality, even with Dark Mewtwo Y's Psychic, it would be impossible to control Giratina.
But it could briefly restrict and affect Giratina's movements, which would be enough for Primal Kyogre to seize the opportunity to attack.
However, Giratina gave no such chance.
Giratina was truly too adept at utilizing its advantages, not at all like it had been secluded since the beginning of creation.
But that was right. Through the Distortion World, Giratina could also observe the real world, and the battles in the real world were all within its sight, absorbing too many combat 'materials.'
To be honest, if the battle in Larus City had been against Giratina back then, Mammon would probably have truly had to flee.
Because merely increasing stats would not be enough to contend with Giratina.
"Be careful, Kyogre."
Mammon's thoughts instantly shifted, and he warned Primal Kyogre.
Primal Kyogre vigilantly looked around, and soon, a deep spatial rift appeared behind Primal Kyogre.
Giratina emerged from it, attacking Primal Kyogre.
"Behind you! Ice Beam!"
Primal Kyogre quickly turned around, and an ice-Green Ice Beam swept behind it.
Giratina crashed into Primal Kyogre first. Primal Kyogre groaned, but the Ice Beam didn't stop, sweeping across Giratina's chest area.
Ice-type Ice Beam was super effective against Giratina.
Giratina immediately turned ethereal to avoid further attacks, and while in its ethereal form, Giratina retreated, maintaining its distance from Primal Kyogre.
And indeed, Mammon, who was just about to have Dark Mewtwo Y attack, saw this and did not continue to command.
Origin Forme Giratina's indifferent gaze swept over Primal Kyogre and Dark Mewtwo Y, then landed on Mammon on the ground.
Giratina's dragon eyes flickered slightly, wondering what it was thinking.
"Giratina, I have no intention of clashing with you. As long as you restore Dialga and the others to normal, I will leave here immediately."
Seeing that Giratina did not continue to attack, Mammon thought for a moment and spoke.
To be honest, fighting Giratina was much harder than fighting Kyurem, the Dragon God.
This guy's Shadow Sneak was simply too buggy.
Giratina's gaze remained cold, staring at Mammon, not answering, but also not refusing.
"You are very good."
"?"
Mammon raised an eyebrow. The hoarse, low telepathy he had just heard was Giratina's; there should be no mistake.
It was complimenting him?
"A good human, your power."
Giratina repeated, affirming Mammon's power.
Of course, it was good. Although the recent exchange of blows was not long, Giratina could still feel it.
Primal Kyogre and Dark Mewtwo Y were both very strong Pokémon.
"Thank you for the compliment." Mammon replied politely.
"I can let them go, but..."
Giratina's telepathy was very indifferent, glancing sideways at the two 'brothers' playing 'bumper cars' in the sky.
"You need to do me a favor."
Giratina continued.
Mammon's mouth twitched slightly. As the master of the Distortion World, one of the three Origin Deities, what could he possibly help it with?
What else could it be?
"May I ask presumptuously?"
Mammon pondered for a moment, deciding to ask directly.
"The favor you speak of, you're not asking me to help you fight Arceus, are you?"
This was the only thing Mammon could think of. Otherwise, what else would Giratina need a human like him to help with?
The key thing was, fight Arceus?
