Divine Plan? But I'm a Pokémon trainer.

Chapter 398: More Blows, Stars Like Rain

Not only does Deoxys have two, but Rayquaza does too.

Both Daigo and Yuya found it hard to believe that there could be more than one Pokémon with a niche like Rayquaza at the same time.

For Higana from Meteor Village, the existence of two "Dragon Gods" is a completely unacceptable reality.

Rayquaza, which had never been observed before, completely disrupted the plans of both the League and Sigana.

Link, who learned about this from the Pokémon in the Pokédex, was speechless. This wasn't a Deoxys at all; it was a Rayquaza trap!

I wonder if Daigo and the League have any other tricks up their sleeves?
Yes, but it seems we don't need it anymore.

The black Rayquaza descended from the sky, disrupting the surrounding atmosphere. Sensing that Deoxys had just landed, it didn't see the green Rayquaza, which had been blasted into the ground by the "Hyper Beam," but instead saw another Rayquaza.

The two Rayquazas were immediately hostile to each other, and the one of different colors immediately launched a "Destruction Beam".

While ordinary Pokémon would bear a considerable burden just by using them, the two Rayquazas seemed to have no energy to spare, unleashing a barrage of attacks without any recovery time, causing explosions and ruins throughout Larus City.

In the blink of an eye, nearly a quarter of the buildings in the city were reduced to ruins, leaving Higana, who had summoned them, completely at a loss as to what to do.

The Dragon God has been summoned, but what should we do next?
Deoxys disappeared amidst the chaos, and the sudden appearance of a second Rayquaza added further interference to the plan. Gym Leaders throughout Larousse City, as well as Team Magma and Team Aqua members, were all at risk. Steven couldn't be more troubled.

Fortunately, the defenses of the battle tower were even stronger than expected, and it suffered no damage even after being hit by a "destructive ray" not long ago.

That said... why do these Rayquazas have to use the Normal-type "Destruction Beam"?
Seeing that Higana had also stopped in her tracks due to the unexpected fact, Daigo asked helplessly, "Is this the result you wanted? I really hope that the Meteor People have a way to deal with the so-called 'Dragon God'."

“Do you dare say you didn’t have a single thought of using me?” Higana scoffed. “Don’t bother, I will resolve this conflict and then fulfill my responsibilities as the successor.”

Before she finished speaking, she released Salamence and rode it to chase after the two Rayquaza that were fighting.

Meanwhile, Yuu and his companion retrieved the stones that Dai-Okishis had thrown away to avoid being implicated when he was ambushed not long ago.

"Daigo, Deoxys has disappeared. Does it intend to defeat Rayquaza before taking its companions with it?"

After confirming the underground situation, Yu reported the findings, while Daigo fell into deep thought.

They must resolve the incident before the city of Larousse is completely razed to the ground. If Deoxys's goal is to bring back his companions, it might be possible to cooperate with him.

"Yao, Yao, I'm leaving the two Rayquazas to you. You don't need Groudon and Kyogre's help before they attack the Battle Tower. I'm going to find Dr. Lundo to carry out the second plan."

After saying that, he hurriedly rode away on the giant golden monster.

Prior to this, the stone had been emitting increasingly stronger vibrations over time.

There are indications that enough energy could enable it to "regenerate itself".

Therefore, plan B is to resurrect Deoxys using Dr. Rondo's method.

The power of the two Rayquazas is so great that any ally would be worth trying to win over, even though they had just fought a fierce battle with Deoxys not long ago.

The green and black dragons fought fiercely, turning Larus City into a battlefield for territory in just a few minutes.

Higana followed closely behind, feeling utterly lost.

"The power of the ancient spirits is simply too much to resist, Shiokana. How am I supposed to prove my worth to the Dragon God... and which one is the Dragon God that is being celebrated in Meteor Village?"

As we all know, there is only one God!
For a moment, Higana couldn't recall whether the legend mentioned the color of the Dragon God.

Judging from the murals left by the ancient Hoenn people a thousand years ago, the dragon god should be the green one.

However... the green was being completely overwhelmed by the black!

She didn't want to admit that the one that was about to be beaten to a pulp was their god.

Even setting aside faith—since Higanbana wasn't particularly interested in it anyway—she wasn't willing to risk choosing the weaker option and risk failing to destroy the Gigantamax Meteor.

Once a choice is made, there is no going back; a wise judgment must be made.

Higana had no choice but to dodge the collapsing buildings, flying rubble, and falling "Dragon Star Clusters" alongside the Salamander, while analyzing and recalling the legacy of the Meteor People...

……

Inside the battle tower, Link and Mash's battle has ended.

Just as the audience, having enjoyed the spectacle, were about to leave, they suddenly heard a piercing alarm sound.

Officer Jenny and the League staff arrived at the scene immediately, evacuated the audience, and guided everyone to the underground emergency shelter.

"The civil engineering and infrastructure here is top-notch. I don't think even Rayquaza could pose any threat to the air-raid shelter located hundreds of meters below."

Link did not evacuate immediately, but instead remarked to Masted on the shelter they had dug in just half a month.

The alliance's cutting-edge technology can sometimes be truly awe-inspiring.

"Yes, I hope the disaster won't escalate."

Ma Shide looked around and saw that the "disciple" had indeed disappeared, just as Daigo had said, he was a traitor from Meteor Village.

"Sigh, I'm getting old. Lin, do you have any plans to go and see Rayquaza?"

Link nodded; the elves needed to see the world.

Although his current combat strength is not suitable for getting involved in the core of the conflict, it is still fine for him to just observe from a distance and let Fire Fox, Blazing Roaring Tiger, Dolphin Man and Evil Pine spar with one of them.

"I was just about to say that, but the situation has changed. A second Shiny Rayquaza has suddenly appeared in Larus City. Just to be on the safe side, let's go and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Ma Shide subconsciously murmured, "An odd color..."

Something seems to be wrong.

"Different colors" refers to elves whose colors are different due to genetic mutations.

Why would Link conclude that the second individual is an odd-colored one without ever having seen it before?

Couldn't the first green one be a different color? Maybe it's just a difference between male and female?

He then shook his head, thinking to himself that he was being overly sensitive, and that the other party was probably just using a name that could distinguish between them.

"Fire Fox, let's go." "Fu!"

As Link and Mash arrived at the top of the Battle Tower via elevator, the battle between the green Rayquaza and the black Rayquaza had reached its climax.

As soon as they stepped outside, the two and the elves saw the green one being smashed into the ground with a single blow.

In the next instant, Black Rayquaza unleashed its full power without mercy, creating hundreds and thousands of meteorites composed of dragon-attribute energy.

This move, "Dragon Star Cluster," actually brought the entire city of Larousse into its attack range!
