Seeing Mewtwo's attack, Kyogre refused to be outdone and stirred up towering waves.
The sky was torn apart by the clash of terrifying energies as Mewtwo and Kyogre collided wildly.
Mewtwo relied on its unparalleled psychic power and combat skill to hold its ground, but Kyogre's immense power drawn from nature seemed endless, faintly matching Mewtwo blow for blow.
On the other side of the battlefield, Pryce looked at Mewtwo being entangled by Kyogre, a satisfied expression appearing on his face.
His gaze shifted back to Cynthia and the weakened Dialga, "Now, who else is there to stop me?"
"Dialga is destined to become my Pokemon."
"And you think saying it makes it yours?"
Just as Pryce burst into unrestrained laughter, a vast voice suddenly rang out.
Immediately after, a spatial rift stretching several kilometers tore open, and on the other side of it, a massive mechanical city almost entirely made of steel was forcing its way into the Pokemon world!
Hearing that voice, Pryce's mouth twitched instinctively.
He knew that voice too well. Ever since he got to know its owner, nothing good had ever happened to him.
And today, Axel had gone even further, actually bringing a whole city into a fight?
Fortunately, that mechanical city was far too huge and seemed like it would take a long time to fully squeeze into the Pokemon world, which gave Pryce some time to react.
"Mamoswine, Delibird, Axel is back."
"While Kyogre is holding off Mewtwo, quickly freeze Dialga and take it away!"
Inside the spatial rift, Axel, who had already dealt with the Azoth Kingdom, looked down at the restless Pryce on the ground with a cheerful expression.
He had just sorted out the situation over there, rescued the citizens and the Pokemon that had been forcibly Mega Evolved, and was planning to come back and find Pryce to take Kyogre back.
Didn't expect this guy to deliver himself right to his doorstep.
"You want Kyogre to help you? Can you even handle it?"
"What do you mean?", Pryce felt a bad premonition. During this time, he had already sensed something off about Kyogre.
As a god, that thing was working far too hard.
Whenever it absorbed resources, it practically went all out every time, almost draining all the money Pryce earned every single day.
At first, Pryce thought it was just Kyogre's nature, but after hearing Axel's words, he suddenly began to question everything.
Because Axel was just too bizarre.
"Kyogre, you only need to hold off Mewtwo. You don't need to worry about anything else."
"Roar~", Kyogre let out a sound like crashing waves, but its gaze passed over Mewtwo and landed on Axel instead.
Its eyes were reverent, as if… it were looking at its own master.
"Kyogre, Origin Pulse!", From within the spatial rift, Axel's voice was calm, as if Kyogre should naturally obey him.
And that was exactly the case.
As soon as Axel finished speaking, Kyogre let out a roar, abandoning Mewtwo as its original target. Its fierce gaze locked onto Pryce.
A terrifying sphere of water condensed in front of it, emitting a deep humming vibration.
Seeing this scene, Delibird and Mamoswine almost simultaneously abandoned their targets, their scalps tingling.
As Kyogre's teammates during this period, they had witnessed its recovery process with their own eyes.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that in just a single month, that thing had consumed more resources than they had in their entire lives.
Even without thinking, anyone could tell how terrifying Kyogre was now.
The streams blasted out from Origin Pulse like countless spears, piercing straight into the ground.
One of those streams struck Mamoswine's body, easily penetrating its thick fur and fat, knocking it back again and again, almost embedding it into the earth.
"Run!", Pryce didn't hesitate at all. He had no intention of giving Kyogre a second chance to attack. His body, formed of ice, rushed quickly toward Mamoswine and Delibird.
At the same time, he pressed the Poke Ball in his hand, trying to recall Kyogre.
But he forgot one thing. Dialga was still present.
Within the fluctuations of time, Pryce felt like he was trapped in a ghostly loop. No matter how he ran, he couldn't escape the area defined by Dialga.
The Poke Ball in his hand was always just a fraction short. He simply couldn't press it.
Mewtwo didn't stay idle either. Its body vanished from where it stood and reappeared beside Pryce in the next instant.
Bang!
The spoon swung, and the Poke Ball in Pryce's hand shattered into pieces.
Standing at the edge of the spatial rift, on the walls of the Gear City, Axel watched Pryce with a smiling expression.
"Kyogre was mine to begin with. I just left it by the water for a bit and you stole it."
"I didn't even call Officer Jenny on you, that's already giving you face, and you still brought Kyogre to fight my Cynthia and Mewtwo?"
"Axel, you thief! You deliberately used Kyogre to lure me so I'd help you gather resources, didn't you?"
Pryce glared at the sky in fury, his chest burning with rage as he clenched his teeth.
Axel spread his hands, "I didn't force you to take Kyogre. You're the one who snatched my Pokemon."
"And also, since when did you pick up the habit of arguing like this? If you've got the ability, fight me with your Pokemon."
"You… you damn!", Pryce almost spat out a mouthful of blood. When you were weak, why didn't you say that?
When you were weak, it was either framing people or calling for help. Now that you're strong, you mock others?
Can you at least act like a decent human?
Pryce took a deep breath, and his emotions suddenly calmed down.
"Kid, you may be sly, but I've learned a thing or two from you."
"I've fallen this time. Next time, we'll see!"
After saying that, Pryce's body suddenly turned into countless ice fragments, scattering across the ground and disappearing.
His two Pokemon also took advantage of Axel's Pokemon being focused on Pryce and quietly sank into the ground, vanishing without a trace.
Watching Pryce escape, Axel didn't react much.
With Pryce's ability and cunning, it would be strange if he could be caught so easily.
But this time wasn't without gains. Axel was already quite satisfied that Pryce had helped train Kyogre.
"Kyogre, don't just stand there. Hurry over and help push the spatial rift open. Groudon's about to get exhausted."
As soon as Axel said that, Cynthia and Lucian finally noticed in shock that inside that terrifying spatial rift, the Gear City was actually being carried on Groudon's shoulders.
Axel rubbed his nose, "Such a big spatial rift, Gyarados being able to keep it open is already impressive. It doesn't have the ability to lift it with spatial power… letting Groudon carry it for a bit is normal, right?"
"We… what we're wondering is why you don't just let the Gear City fly on its own, okay?"
Axel suddenly understood, "So that's what you're shocked about. Isn't it just to save electricity?"
"Once you use electricity, it's gone, but Groudon's strength isn't!"
Cynthia, Lucian: "..."
Do trainers with lots of legendary Pokemon always treat them like this?
