Pokémon: Trainers Start as Bounty Hunters.

Even though he wasn't in good shape, the strength his opponent displayed was beyond his expectations.

As a trainer involved in the battle, Lianwu knew very well that without Tetsuya's two Pokémon standing in front, it would have been impossible for him to achieve the current results with the strength of his main Pokémon.

"That's really exaggerated..."

He let out a helpless sigh.

Despite being far superior to Tetsuya in terms of both seniority and experience, he seems to have fallen behind in the professional path of a trainer.

Tetsuya, of course, had no idea that Renwu, who was beside him, had such a wealth of ideas.

Even he, in a battle of this caliber, would be unable to pay attention to too many trivial matters.

His tone was calm: "We will definitely not be the ones who can't hold on first."

"Ok?"

Even Empress Wu belatedly turned to look at him, somewhat puzzled as to why he said that.

"Although we don't know the specifics, the Three Cloud Gods are clearly being manipulated. Given their physical condition, they'll probably reach their limit soon."

Tetsuya gestured for him to look at the dark trio in a corner not far away.

Although Lian Wu possessed strong physical abilities, enough to ensure his safety in the aftermath of the battle, his mental capacity was limited. Apart from commanding the battle, he had no energy left for other matters.

Only after hearing this did he reluctantly turn his gaze to the enemy.

The Dark Trio's appearance clearly indicated that they were very weak.

His face was pale, his eyes were lifeless, and his body seemed to have become much thinner.

"As expected of Team Plasma, they don't value their lives at all!"

Lian Wu was taken aback for a moment, then showed a look of disgust.

Although the other party was an enemy, given his personality, he still couldn't stand such behavior.

"Their condition is indeed very poor... but we are also nearing our limit."

Lian Wu frowned.

While they were saying those few words, the fighting did not stop.

Pidgeot and Blaziken, which are responsible for the main attack output, have noticeably become much heavier and more forceful in their breathing.

The latter's flames turned into a regular orange-red color, and it only used white flames to attack when it was certain to cause damage.

Using the Fireball Slab still requires a lot of stamina.

If you don't conserve some resources, Blaziken's combat power will drop significantly after exiting Mega form.

When facing a mythical beast with astonishing regenerative abilities, this is clearly a tactical choice that requires no thought.

"I know."

Tetsuya's attention was fixed on Mikumo Kami: "So now it's time to put some pressure on them."

It's now!

Pidgeon, the sacred fire!

"Beep!"

As the tornado swooped down, its left wing stiffened almost imperceptibly for a moment.

That's the damage Blaziken inflicted earlier now taking effect.

Tetsuya and Pidgeot seized this flaw with remarkable precision.

Or perhaps it can't be called a flaw, but rather an opportunity to attack.

A high-pitched cry echoed across the chaotic battlefield.

The Pidgey spread its wings, and a blazing, pure golden-red flame suddenly erupted from its body, instantly covering its entire form.

An indescribable sense of holiness and majesty weighed down the movements of the Three Cloud Gods.

The tornado cloud's flight path was instantly altered.

To Pidgeot, all of this seemed to happen as slowly as a movie scene in slow motion.

"Whoosh-"

It transformed into a golden-red streak of light and instantly struck the enemy.

The sacred fire collided with the raging flying energy and dissipated.

The tornado cloud immediately let out a painful howl.

Its massive body involuntarily tumbled backward, and the elf's aura instantly plummeted.

"puff--"

One of the members of the Dark Iron Triangle coughed up blood, and crimson liquid kept flowing from his ears and nose, as if he had been injured simultaneously.

"What the hell is this thing?"

Lian Wu couldn't help but swear.

He had been shocked by Tetsuya many times during this period, but it would be difficult for anyone to remain calm if the power unique to Ho-Oh appeared in a Pidgeot!

It's no wonder he didn't know.

After all, as a trump card, very few people have actually witnessed or even known about Pidgeot's ability to use the Sacred Flame.

Seeing this, the Earth Cloud and Thunder Cloud wanted to make a move against the Eagle.

However, the sacred flames transformed into a seamless barrier, firmly enveloping the latter, leaving both of the Three Cloud Gods somewhat helpless.

"Old craftsman, True Qi Bomb!!"

Although Lian Wu was shocked, he seized the opportunity to let his ace Pokémon use a Fighting-type ultimate move.

The powerful Fighting-type energy stirred the air and roared as it crashed into the tornado cloud, which was already on the verge of collapse.

"Energy overload, initiate recovery procedure."

A calm voice suddenly echoed across the battlefield.

Akroma, wearing goggles, appeared near the Qibao Museum at some unknown time.

His gaze toward the two of the Seven Sages and the Dark Triangle was somewhat cold, then he raised the device in his hand.

The three gods' eyes immediately became empty and blank.

Then it turned into red light and disappeared into the device in Akromma's hand.

Chapter 1130 Failure

"boom!!"

The energy blast struck the open ground, producing a violent explosion.

Mega Blaziken stood in front of Tetsuya, staring seriously at the sudden new enemy.

Pidgey was also reborn from the flames by the sacred fire, returning to its full glory.

Akroma glanced at the data flashing on the device screen and nodded: "It's not bad, at least the energy data was recorded, so you're not a complete failure."

He looked at Tetsuya: "Thank you for your cooperation. Also, I'm very interested in your two Pokémon."

Akroma stared at the Blaziken and Pidgeot, as if pondering the best angle to study them.

The malice was so obvious it couldn't be more obvious.

"Akromar!!"

Lian Wu recognized the other party and shouted angrily, "What do you want to do?!"

"I just dealt with some bad customers and picked up something on the way."

As soon as Akroma finished speaking, an elf that looked quite familiar to Ling Zheye and Lian Wu appeared behind him.

There were three Genosects.

Moreover, compared to the one that Tetsuya had captured before, these were larger and more imposing.

"Boom-bang!"

The energy beam shot towards the Knight Snail and Gallade.

The two guarding the ancient round stone had to dodge awkwardly.

A Genesect broke through the energy shield almost effortlessly and grabbed the ancient round stone in its hand.

"return."

Tetsuya stopped his two companions from going up to fight.

They are no match for Genosect.

Akroma seemed to enjoy the feeling, and smiled slightly: "Today is not the time. I look forward to seeing what special performance you will have next time we meet."

With that, he turned around and left the museum without hesitation.

Genosect, carrying the ancient spherical stone, followed behind him, while the other two remained in place, eager to pounce.

It seems that as soon as someone tries to catch up, an attack will be launched immediately.

Neither Tetsuya nor Renbu dared to make any rash moves.

Their spirits were all seriously injured in the battle with the Three Cloud Gods.

Even though Pidgeot recovered 99% of its strength under the effect of Sacred Fire, it would still be very difficult to defeat three Genesects and stop Acromantha from leaving under these circumstances.

"Gaino"

Seeing this, the two Genosects at the rear also refrained from attacking, as instructed by Akromah.

About ten minutes after the latter left, they also quickly disappeared from the spot and headed out of Qibao City.

"Bang bang—"

Before leaving.

The two figures were thrown down by one of the Genesects without any pity.

"Kuroji and the handsome guy..."

Even though they were some distance apart, Tetsuya still recognized the two of them.

He quickly guessed that the reason Akroma had only appeared now was because Kuro and the handsome guy had slowed him down to some extent.

But it was equally clear that they were badly beaten.

"Come in and arrest him!"

Lian Wu gave the instructions into the headset.

Trainers and Officer Jenny quickly entered the arena and tied up Asura, Vio, and the Dark Trio.

The sight of the three men in such a disheveled and near-death state undoubtedly startled everyone.

Miss Joey and the others rushed to provide emergency treatment, maintaining their basic vital signs.

They still have value; they can't just die like this.

Kuro and the handsome guy are alright; their lives are not in danger.

"Where are the Three Cloud Gods?"

Yati, who had disappeared since the start of the battle, had a grave expression.

Don't get me wrong, he didn't run away, but went to command his "swarm" to resist the other Plasma Team members who were simultaneously invading Qibao City.

However, the battle with the divine beast was far too intense.

Not just him, almost everyone in Qibao City noticed the Three Cloud Gods that had just appeared above the City Museum.

If it weren't for the magnetic field error that prevented communication from functioning properly, the news would have already spread throughout most of Unova and even to other regions by the time the battle began.

Now that the three mythical beasts have disappeared, the magnetic field has returned to normal, and the news is spreading rapidly.

"They've escaped, and the bad news is that Akroma, or Team Plasma, got what they wanted."

Tetsuya and Renwu didn't look too good.
