"H-how… how did this happen…", Ash couldn't believe it.
"So many… Legendary Pokémon…", Meray's voice trembled.
Team Rocket huddled together, shaking all over, "W-we… we really messed up this time, meow!"
Shadow Hoopa floated in the center of the many forcibly summoned, rage-filled legendary Pokémon, spreading all its arms proudly, "See this? This is Hoopa's power! Submit! Or be destroyed!"
Just as Shadow Hoopa was feeling smug, convinced victory was already in its grasp, a clear voice with a hint of teasing came from the rooftop high above, cutting cleanly through the chaos below, "Oh? A group beatdown? Something this interesting, and you didn't count me in?"
Faced with that voice, everyone's attention, including Shadow Hoopa and the summoned legendary Pokémon, was drawn over without exception.
At some point, Axel was already standing at the edge of the rooftop. The fierce wind whipped his clothes loudly.
He casually tossed three unusual Poké Balls in his hand, a lazy smile on his face.
All six of Shadow Hoopa's eyes narrowed at once, "Gardevoir… and Gardevoir's trainer. Just ants."
"And you think you can stand against Hoopa?"
Axel didn't answer directly. Instead, he lightly tossed the three Poké Balls in his hand.
His voice suddenly rose, firm and unquestionable.
"Come out and show them. Let them see what real power looks like!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Three bursts of light erupted at the same time, like three miniature suns blooming on the rooftop.
Groudon, blazing like molten lava with dark red patterns flowing across its body, slammed down with a thunderous roar that shook the earth itself. Its presence was no weaker than the one Shadow Hoopa had summoned, if anything, even stronger.
Kyogre, vast as the deep sea, circled into the sky. Rain poured from its wings as blue light pulsed across its body. The aura of the Primordial Sea clashed head-on with the opposing Kyogre, and even surpassed it.
And then, soaring high above the sky, even in its normal form yet radiating supreme authority, Rayquaza.
With a single dragon's roar, it felt like the sky itself was about to tear apart. In an instant, it suppressed all the chaotic airflow and energy across the battlefield.
The three Hoenn Pokémon appeared together. With their absolute power and more stable state, they instantly reversed the balance of power.
They were fewer in number, but Rayquaza's overwhelming combat strength made up the difference. And both Kyogre and Groudon were in their Primal Reversion forms.
In front of this form, ordinary Kyogre and Groudon weren't even worth comparing.
"What?", Shadow Hoopa's smug expression froze. All six eyes widened, filled with disbelief and confusion, "I-impossible!"
"Groudon and Kyogre are clearly already under my control, how can there be two of them?"
It couldn't understand. This went beyond the rules of this world.
Ash and the others were completely stunned. Looking at Axel on the rooftop and the three even more oppressive super ancient Pokémon beside him, their minds nearly stopped working.
"H-he… who is he?", Ash muttered.
Baraz was even more shaken, "Controlling three super ancient Pokémon at once? This…"
Axel was very satisfied with Shadow Hoopa's ghost-seeing expression and didn't bother chatting much with the people in this scene.
He chuckled lightly and snapped his fingers.
"Gardevoir, Mega Evolve!"
"Glastrier, come out and stretch a bit!"
A flash of rainbow light passed. Mega Gardevoir appeared gracefully, a powerful psychic field spreading outward.
At the same time, hail began to fall. Glastrier charged out over ice, its cold gaze locking onto the opposing legendary Pokémon. Together with Gardevoir, it took on a fairy queen-like presence.
Axel pointed toward Shadow Hoopa's group of legendary Pokémon and gave orders to his own team:
"Groudon, use Precipice Blades on that one!"
"Kyogre, blast them with Origin Pulse!"
"Rayquaza, Draco Meteor!"
"Gardevoir, use Moonblast to disrupt Shadow Hoopa!"
"Glastrier, set up snow and use Blizzard to control the field!"
The commands were concise and efficient.
The next moment, the attacks unleashed by Axel's Pokémon descended like natural disasters.
The terrifying Precipice Blades tore through the ground, striking the Groudon summoned by Shadow Hoopa head-on and forcing it to stagger backward.
The immense beam of Origin Pulse collided with the water blast from the opposing Kyogre, triggering a massive explosion as shockwaves spread everywhere.
Rayquaza turned into a black meteor, darting across the battlefield at a speed the naked eye could barely track, rising to the highest point in the sky.
Terrifying Dragon-type energy gathered and released from its body, exploding in the sky and turning into countless meteors raining down.
Those meteors carried dense Dragon-type energy. Each impact made Pokémon like Palkia and Dialga, who had Dragon typing, cry out in pain, some even smashed straight back into the hyperspace holes.
Gardevoir's Moonblast struck like precise sniper fire, repeatedly hitting Shadow Hoopa.
As a fairy queen-like Mega form, it was arguably the highest in base power among all Pokémon present.
Combined with type advantage, each strike was devastating.
Glastrier's Blizzard swept across the battlefield. The freezing aura weakened the enemy legendary Pokémon's condition, while hail pelted down mercilessly.
The situation instantly turned into a one-sided crushing.
The legendary Pokémon summoned by Shadow Hoopa were already unstable from being forcibly controlled. Now facing stronger opponents with perfect coordination and targeted type tactics, they had almost no ability to fight back and were pushed back step by step.
"No! Impossible! How could this happen! Hoopa is strong! Hoopa is the strongest!"
Shadow Hoopa waved its arms frantically, trying to stabilize the legendary Pokémon it had summoned.
But it was completely futile.
It couldn't block a single attack from any of Axel's Pokémon.
Looking at Axel, who stood calmly as if fishing by a quiet pond, even having the leisure to observe the battle, Shadow Hoopa felt true fear and despair for the first time.
'What kind of monster is this guy?'
'Since when did a trainer this strong even exist in this world!'
Axel looked at the nearly terrified Shadow Hoopa and knew the timing was about right. He lightly snapped his fingers, his stamina draining rapidly.
"Gardevoir, Twinkle Tackle!"
For the first time in his life, Axel had Gardevoir use a Z-Move in its Mega queen form.
A terrifying fairy power spread out, instantly overwhelming all the forces present. Whether it was the earth, the ocean, or even the power of the sky, all of it paled in comparison to this fairy energy!
Cute pink stars appeared out of nowhere, like the most beautiful flowers.
But to Hoopa, those "flowers" were more terrifying than any move.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions rang out. Pink mushroom clouds covered the sky above the city.
When the clouds finally settled, Hoopa was already lying on the ground, unable to get back up.
"Throw the ball!"
