I caught a Pokémon

Fortunately, the iceberg had been there for an unknown amount of time and still looked quite solid, which put their minds at ease a little.

Let's refocus on the battle.

Watching from afar, the group felt incredibly small amidst the earth-shaking battle between Pokémon of such high caliber.

Unlike the previous battle between Black Rayquaza and Dialga and Palkia, this time, being in a town, Rayquaza was noticeably more cautious during the battle.

But now that it's in the wild, this Deoxys doesn't make any such movements.

All sorts of grand scenes and powerful moves come out almost effortlessly!

"This is on a completely different level from gym battles..."

As yet another overturned boulder landed at his feet, Xiao Guang let out another sigh.

yes……

Xiao Zhi clenched his fists.

Seeing the two Pokémon fighting more and more fiercely, he wanted to break them up, but he was forced back by the aftershocks of the battle after taking only a few steps. This happened several times, and he was unable to get close.

Even his shouts to stop him were swept away by the explosion, failing to cause any ripples.

It seems that his protagonist aura has temporarily lost its effect thanks to Xia You's deliberate efforts.

Looking at the battle, despite Giratina's size advantage, it can only operate on land. Although not clumsy, it doesn't have a good way to deal with the agile Deoxys. Of course, this doesn't mean it was constantly being overwhelmed. After all, as a mythical Pokémon, it still has strong combat capabilities, especially its ability to disappear and reappear, which is its signature move, Shadow Lurker. It is truly unpredictable and has caused Deoxys some trouble several times.

But that's it.

After only a few minutes of fighting, Giratina's counterattack failed to achieve the desired effect, and its momentum gradually weakened. This also meant that Deoxys had officially gained the upper hand in this battle.

This change emboldened Deoxys to become even more ruthless.

Deoxys switched back to attack form, intending to finish off Giratina in one fell swoop. However, Giratina also wanted to put up a final resistance while it still had the ability to move. As a result, both sides charged up their power, and when their final moves collided, they generated the greatest energy collision since the start of the battle!

A dazzling light flashed!

In an instant, a violent tremor spread outward from the point where the two Pokémon were fighting, first impacting Xia You and his group who were closest to them, and then continuing outward, sweeping across the lake, forest, and mountains, until it crashed into the farthest iceberg.

This time, the seemingly solid iceberg, whose existence was unknown, suddenly cracked open, with large sections of ice breaking off and crashing down the sloping hillside, smashing through the forest with unstoppable force. As trees collapsed one after another, it plunged into the lake.

Pfft!

Even the already turbulent lake waters were stirred up by the impact, creating towering waves that crashed against the shore!

Xia You and the others didn't have time to reflect on this scene.

Because they were closest to the battlefield, they had already been knocked off their feet by the blast wave.

When they finally managed to stand up, before they could even rub their sore bottoms, they saw Giratina had retreated quite a distance, panting heavily, looking up at Deoxys with a blank expression.

At this point, Giratina had large wounds all over its body, and its condition seemed to be quite bad.

Seeing this, Xia You was about to give the order to completely defeat this mythical Pokémon, but before he could give the order in his mind, a sudden change occurred!

But this time, it's not that man named Gerald.

In fact, after several blows, Jero still hasn't been able to get up from the rubble of the spaceship. His fate is unknown and he has disappeared without a trace, so naturally Xia You doesn't care.

What caught their attention first was a roar. When they turned around, they saw a huge white and yellow Pokémon, nearly four meters tall, standing on the other side of the ridge!

Upon seeing this Pokémon, Ash and his friends were puzzled, but Xia You recognized it at a glance.

Regigigas, also known as the Pillar King!

Chapter 1034 Negative Characteristic: Slow Start!

Regigigas, a legendary Pokémon of the Normal type.

Although it resembles Regirock, Regice, and Registeel in appearance and has the word "Regi" in its name, it is completely different in terms of level, physical attributes, and size. Therefore, it is not classified as a legendary giant. However, those legendary giants, that is, the eternal Pokémon, were all created by Regigigas using special icebergs, rocks, and lava. Therefore, people are willing to call it Regigigas.

Visually, it has a huge white body without a distinct head. A yellow stripe runs from back to front along the center of the body, with seven round holes arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper, which are considered its eyes. Its arms are long, with yellow disc-like structures on the shoulders and wrists, each ending in three white fingers. Its legs are relatively short. The top of its head, waist, back, and limbs are covered with black zigzag patterns. The sides of the top of its head and its feet are covered with green vegetation. There are also three pairs of dots on the sides of the center of its body, with colors ranging from red, blue, and gray from top to bottom, as if warning people of its formidable nature.

There is a legend that Regigigas once used ropes to drag the continent here, creating the land of the Sinnoh region!

The veracity of this legend is debatable, but at the very least, it shows that in the eyes of the world, it was truly remarkable and extraordinary.

"What kind of Pokémon is this?"

Ash stared in surprise at Regigigas, who seemed lost in thought, and asked a question instinctively.

Xiaoyao, Xiaoguang, and the others naturally didn't recognize it either. Just as they were about to take out their Pokédex to scan it, Mu Xuan suddenly spoke up.

"Regickas!? This...this is impossible!"

Sensing the shock in his voice, Ash and the others were taken aback for a moment, then all turned their gazes to him.

"Regigigas? What's that? Is it a very rare Pokémon?"

Unlike the mythical Pokémon that people in the Sinnoh region have heard about since childhood, Regigigas is not well-known and rarely appears in front of the world. There are not many legends about it, so not many people know about it.

With his gaze still fixed on the figure on the ridge, Mu Xuan murmured as he recounted the information he knew about Regigigas to the others. It was only then that Ash and the others realized that this was yet another legendary Pokémon!

Ash and his friends looked at Deoxys and Giratina again, then at Shaymin in Dawn's arms, and were at a loss for words.

The same thing happened in Baiyang Town last time. How come we never run into these guys normally, but when we do, we encounter so many of them at once?!

Do legendary Pokémon and mythical Pokémon all appear in clusters?

"Regigigas..." Ash scratched his head, puzzled. "But why would a Pokémon like that be here!?"

This is a question that everyone has in mind.

Indeed, why did it have to appear now of all times, instead of earlier or later?

And the fact that it happened in such a remote and uninhabited place is such a coincidence!

Upon hearing Xiao Zhi's words, Mu Xuan snapped out of his reverie, glanced at the shattered iceberg in the distance, and pondered for a moment.

"Indeed, it's been a long time since we've heard any news about Regigigas. But this place is far from humans, and the environment looks quite ancient, so it's not too surprising that a Regigigas might be hiding here. As for why it's here... it must have been drawn out by the commotion of the battle just now!"

I have to say, as expected of someone who does scientific research, his guess was really accurate!

Just as he guessed, this Regigigas did indeed live here, in a ruin very close to the battlefield!

It was originally asleep, and if nothing unexpected happened, it might have continued to sleep for the next few decades, hundreds, or even thousands of years. But obviously, today's great battle has made such a commotion that it has been awakened from its slumber!

In fact, it couldn't wake up even if it didn't want to.

After all, such a large iceberg has broken and collapsed. If it doesn't want to be buried in the ruins, it has to come out and check the situation.

And upon closer inspection, they spotted Deoxys and Giratina locked in battle.

Ash and his friends were surprised, curious, and puzzled by the appearance of this Regigigas, but Xia You was different; he was only overjoyed.

Not bad, not bad. Giratina was already at a disadvantage, and I was just worried that I hadn't trained enough, but unexpectedly, another pleasant surprise came my way!

Glancing at Giratina, who was already powerless to fight Deoxys, Xia You didn't even have the intention to subdue him. He gave the order in his mind, and after Gardevoir's transfer, Deoxys took the initiative to meet Regigigas just two seconds later.

From Regigigas's perspective, this turn of events was truly an unexpected disaster.

And it was a terrible disaster!

Before it came out to check the situation, it never imagined that it would become someone else's experience point the moment it appeared.

It was unaware that if it had remained hidden, the battle between Deoxys and Giratina would have ended there. However, its appearance undoubtedly prolonged the battle and even dragged itself into it.

In the blink of an eye, Deoxys arrived in front of Regigigas.

There were no pre-battle threats, well, actually Deoxys couldn't speak, and it didn't make any pre-battle moves; it just launched an attack.

As its tentacles gathered at its chest, a powerful burst of energy shot out the next second, flying towards Regigigas.

Faced with the attack, Regigigas naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die, but instead slowly raised one arm.

You can tell from Regigigas's massive size that it's a slow guy. Of course, this doesn't refer to its speed, but rather to its characteristics.

That's right, Regigigas has an ability called 'Slow Start', and the greatest power of this ability is that it halves the movement speed and attack damage of Pokémon with this ability for a period of time at the beginning of the battle!

In conventional terms, it means that it takes a while to get back to the original state!

Purely negative characteristics!

However, upon closer reflection, it's understandable. After all, such a giant Pokémon, resembling a golem, had been dormant alone in the ruins, undisturbed by anyone, for an unknown amount of time. Its internal parts might have rusted, and it would indeed need some time to warm up before it could unleash its full power.

only……

It's fine when facing other enemies, since with its strong physical attributes, even if it starts slowly, others can't do anything to it.

But the opponent it faces at this moment is a powerful enemy that can switch between various forms!

Under such circumstances, it could only serve as a punching bag in the early stages, allowing Deoxys to do whatever he wanted with it!

Chapter 1035 Lien Zhan

Regigigas gives the first impression of being a human-shaped turret, but that's not the case. It's not that it can't use ranged attacks, but rather that melee combat is its forte.

With its slow start characteristic, regardless of the fighting style, Regigigas is like a cannon swatting a mosquito, clumsily turning around and having no way to deal with the agile Deoxys.

Despite being twice as tall as Regigigas, Deoxys in Speed ​​Mode moves more than three times faster due to the slow start effect. Not to mention, it can also fly, giving it an aerial advantage. This allows Deoxys to circle around Regigigas, making the latter run around in circles.

Most importantly, even in its Speed ​​Mode, Deoxys's attacks are not ineffective and can still pose a significant threat to Regigigas.

The fight broke out in the blink of an eye, giving Giratina a chance to escape.

This guy was probably annoyed by Deoxys. Now that he saw Deoxys had turned its attention to other Pokémon, he had no intention of teaming up with Regigigas to attack. He turned around and left without looking back!

Logically speaking, since Giratina has already left, there's nothing Ash and his friends can do here anymore. They can't stop Deoxys and Regigigas from fighting, so they could leave this place.

But seeing that Xia You hadn't left, Xiao Zhi decided to stay as well.

After all, such a legendary battle between Pokémon and Mythical Pokémon is not something you can easily witness. Not only him, but also Dawn, Brock and the others didn't want to miss such a scene.

Only Mu Xuan did not stay there. Instead, he said goodbye to them and chased after Giratina in the direction she had left.

After all, he is a researcher, and studying the Reverse World is his primary task. Giratina is closely related to the Reverse World, so no matter how you look at it, Giratina is more important.

Of course, there was another reason that wasn't mentioned: Mu Xuan firmly believed that Jero was still alive, and in case his former assistant did something extreme again, he also planned to take a look at him.

Mu Xuan left with his Pokémon.

Ash and his friends didn't react much to his departure.

After all, although they had spent some time together in the Reverse World and knew each other, they were not very familiar with each other yet. So they didn't feel anything about parting now. On the contrary, without outsiders present, they could be more relaxed and focus all their attention on the great battle in the distance.

The battle between Regigigas and Deoxys also caused quite a stir.

Moreover, it is clear that as time goes by, Regigigas seems to be getting more and more comfortable, and its speed is slowly starting to catch up with the previous generation Orcishus.

This also means that the negative impact of its slow start characteristic is gradually fading.

That's just right, since Xia You's goal wasn't to defeat Regigigas while it was weakened, but to have a fair fight with this legendary Pokémon. So, it's something Xia You is happy to see that it can return to normal.

At that moment, Ash and his friends, who were watching the show, suddenly noticed that Regigigas's battle had changed; its previously slow movements suddenly sped up.

Its attacks became faster and more threatening, but despite the extreme danger, they did not cause Deoxys any trouble.

It's obvious that Deoxys must have received Xia You's warning long ago and made preparations in advance.

Nevertheless, after the negative effects of the slow start disappeared, Regigigas was finally able to turn the tide of the early game and launch an offensive.

And so the real battle between the two Pokémon began!

A strange light emanated from Regigigas's body and shot rapidly toward Deoxys. Regigigas seemed to want to throw Deoxys into confusion so that he could take down this annoying guy.

However, Deoxys easily blocked such an attack with his defensive barrier.

Fortunately, Xia You didn't intend to continue fighting in Speed ​​Mode. Instead, after Regigigas returned to normal, she had Deoxys switch to Offensive Mode and engage Regigigas in a head-on clash.

He also knew that only by facing each other face-to-face and having a real battle could his Pokémon gain something from the fight.

Deoxys's close approach clearly aligned with Regigigas's wishes and allowed it to better utilize its strength. As they drew closer, the two Pokémon clashed at close to mid-range.

Regigigas unleashed a megaton punch, shattering Deoxys's protective shield. Deoxys, not to be outdone, used psychic powers to knock Regigigas slightly off balance.

Regigigas's two enormous arms were incredibly powerful, and Deoxys dared not confront them head-on. However, Deoxys's psychic attacks were equally ferocious, and Regigigas could not withstand them for long.

The two Pokémon each have their own characteristics and fighting styles. Although their battle wasn't as large-scale as their battle with Giratina, and there wasn't much of an earth-shattering event, it was still very intense and dazzling to watch.

At least Ash stared wide-eyed, not blinking an eye, as if afraid of missing something.

Seeing his eagerness to learn something from this place and his desire to join in, Xia You couldn't help but chuckle.

Just watching isn't enough for Ash, but he can't get involved at all and can only watch anxiously. If his Charizard were still with him, he would have flown over long ago, but now he can only watch the battle, itching to join in but helplessly staring at it.
