"Oh! Zinnia! If you ask such a stupid question again, I'm going to spank your butt hard."
"?"
Will looked with a head full of question marks at this old lady who suddenly popped out speaking with a translation dub accent.
"Have you ever seen a Dragon Pokémon that looks like this?"
Elder Aster reached out and tugged Will's furry big ear.
Will wagged his tail.
If his appearance can't be a Dragon.
Then what kind of appearance can be?
Could it be Dracovish, Applin, Turtonator, Altaria, Flygon, Exeggutor?
Sigh.
Those like Charizard and Gyarados must be Dragon-type Pokémon, right?
"It's not like all Dragon-type Pokémon have a dragon look..."
Zinnia muttered softly.
"No talking back!"
Smack!
Elder Aster slapped Zinnia's butt.
"Lucario is not a Dragon-type Pokémon."
Cynthia hurriedly said a sentence.
"I know, I'm not Zinnia."
Elder Aster rolled her eyes, and then grinned,
"However, he should be able to cooperate with your Garchomp, stepping on the teor Line to achieve aerial combat."
What she was curious about now was.
How could a non-Dragon-type Pokémon leave a teor Line behind him?
This discovery couldn't help but make her click her tongue in wonder.
However.
The world is so vast.
They, the Draconid people, stay underground all year round.
It's perfectly normal to have so things they can't understand, so Elder Aster didn't spend much thought on this matter. After observing for a while, she sat back on her rocking chair.
Regarding this matter of the teor Line.
Will is also not clear.
It might be from his second and third lives, leaving behind sothing that never appeared on the panel.
It could also be because of the Dragon Stone, or even the Dragon Fang.
But he doesn't care either.
Possessing the Sea Crown, he completely doesn't need to use an inconvenient thing like the teor Line to achieve aerial combat capability.
Let alone cooperating with the irritable big mother shark.
"Alright, the atmosphere has ward up enough, ti to talk about business."
"?"
Steven was stunned.
When did it warm up?
It's you guys who ward up, right?
"Zinnia."
"Yes."
Zinnia nodded.
Because it was the crisis she prophesied, it was up to her to explain what was going on.
"The source of the crisis is a Pokémon nad Deoxys; that is also an enemy of Lord Dragon God."
"Deoxys?!" x3
Three voices sounded.
Cynthia and Steven's voices were both full of surprise.
And Will's voice was full of doubt.
Deoxys.
The Psychic-type Mythical Pokémon, also known as the 'Space Virus'.
The reason it has this title is because of their birth thod—the DNA of a space virus attached to a teorite underwent a sudden mutation after being exposed to a laser beam, generating this Pokémon.
Deoxys is a Pokémon with four forms.
The focused ability of each form is different.
None of these are the main point.
The main point is...
The number of Deoxys is quite large.
This is also normal.
How vast is the universe, and how many teorites are there in the universe. Even if only one Deoxys can be born from a hundred teorites, that number is still unimaginably large.
Perhaps because of this reason.
The frequency of Deoxys' appearance in the original works is very high.
Ani, movies, manga, and even short series, Deoxys' figure is everywhere.
So.
Today the Draconid people prophesied that Rayquaza is going to start a war with Deoxys.
Will wasn't very surprised in his heart.
But the part that made him doubtful is...
On what basis could Deoxys force Rayquaza into a tough battle?
It's not to say Deoxys is weak.
But Rayquaza's strength is simply not on the sa level as most major Legendary beasts.
Deoxys would even struggle to fight a starting-up Regigigas.
And wants to fight Rayquaza?
Not to ntion ga Rayquaza.
Even normal form Rayquaza is not sothing Deoxys can ss with.
"Deoxys, that's a Pokémon from outer space! It is said that Deoxys appears near auroras accompanied by teorites!"
Steven was quite excited at this very mont.
Of course not because of the Pokémon Deoxys.
He is craving Deoxys' ho, that teorite.
"To be precise, Deoxys are coming for us."
Zinnia pursed her lips.
"Coming for you? Why? In your prophecy, did you see Deoxys entering teor Village?"
Steven frowned, his expression turning serious.
At the crucial mont.
Better put the matter of stones aside for now.
"It's not as terrifying as entering teor Village yet, but the Deoxys are indeed attacking in the direction of teor Falls. As for whether they eventually reached teor Village, I didn't see."
Zinnia shook her head.
"You said 'they'? How many Deoxys did you see?"
Will raised his eyebrows.
He just knew.
A re Deoxys would have a hard ti bullying a Victini, and wants to fight Rayquaza?
So it's relying on nurical superiority.
"Um... don't know, it seems several Deoxys held back Lord Dragon God, and then another four ca towards teor Falls..."
"So many?!"
Steven and Cynthia couldn't stay calm anymore.
The appearance of one Deoxys is considered unseen in a century.
So many Deoxys coming all at once is simply a space virus invasion of the Blue Planet.
Rayquaza must be extrely furious seeing so many rubber n attacking, right?
"Um... that is to say, we have to deal with at least four Deoxys..."
Will raised a hand and pinched his chin.
Holding back Rayquaza.
Obviously.
One or two Deoxys absolutely cannot do it.
At least four.
Moreover, the strength of these four Deoxys must all be at the upper-tier Champion level to possibly do it.
If the remaining four Deoxys coming towards teor Village also have about the sa strength.
Then teor Village is probably going to suffer a severe blow.
Will, cooperating with Victini, can almost beat two.
But Cynthia, Steven, and the others.
Can at most stall one, and might not even be able to stall it.
If Deoxys makes up its mind to break into teor Village, then it can completely enter Speed For.
With the speed of tagross and Garchomp, they probably can't stop Deoxys.
Even if they stop it.
There's still one Deoxys.
Will have to leave it to the Draconid people to solve themselves.
Will isn't that worried about this point. That Elder Aster with a not-so-good temper should have a very powerful Salance.
The other Draconid people presumably aren't vegetarians (pushovers) either; they can more or less scrape together so combat power.
And the most important thing is...
Upper-tier Champion Deoxys aren't like cabbages (common).
How could eight co all at once.
There must definitely be a few parallel imports (weak ones) among them.
Overall.
This incident, in Will's eyes, is not a big problem.
As the first matter involving Legendary Pokémon for Cynthia to handle after taking office as Champion, it is considered very suitable.
"Four... and don't know what kind of strength they have. In short, I will go all out to stop them."
Steven's face was heavy, his words not particularly confident. Obviously.
He doesn't think these four Deoxys are easy to deal with.
After all, this is a group of space Pokémon that can fight with Rayquaza.
He can only try his best to make a move.
"Perhaps, a battle won't necessarily happen? We can find out what the Deoxys want to do; if it can be resolved peacefully, that would be for the best."
Cynthia actually held a different view.
She believed the Deoxys wouldn't hesitate to enrage Rayquaza and still co towards teor Falls; they must have a purpose.
If this purpose won't harm the Draconid people.
Then might as well satisfy the Deoxys.
To resolve this incident peacefully and minimize the danger.
"Impossible." x2
Will and Elder Aster refuted at the sa ti.
However.
Cynthia's words did remind Will.
Creatures like Deoxys aren't idle with nothing to do. Compared to invading, what they would be more willing to do should be sitting on their teorites flying randomly everywhere in the universe.
They'd rather start a war with Rayquaza to co here.
Shows that hidden in teor Falls or even teor Village is sothing they absolutely must obtain.
Looking at the situations where Deoxys appeared in the original works...
The purpose is either for a teorite or for a core.
Could it be coming for the iridescent stone of the Draconid people?
"Why?"
This sentence was asked by Steven.
He suddenly felt what Cynthia said also made sense.
Why must problems be solved with force?
Is Deoxys a Pokémon that cannot be reasoned with at all?
"Because from the mont they entered the Blue Planet, this is no longer just a problem between Deoxys and us Draconid people, it also involves the problem of Lord Dragon God's territory being invaded."
Elder Aster looked up at the sky with worry,
"Towards creatures that invaded his territory, Lord Dragon God will absolutely not hold back. Even if the Deoxys all run to the universe, Lord Dragon God will chase after them and fight."
That's right.
Will nodded after hearing Elder Aster's explanation.
This is also what he wanted to say.
So Legendary Pokémon regard their territorial sovereignty extrely highly. The Creation Trio of land, sea, and sky in Hoenn and the Creation Trio of space, ti, and antimatter in Sinnoh are the most classic representatives among this type.
Deoxys hitting the Draconid people.
Rayquaza might not necessarily care.
But if they want to hit the Draconid people, they must invade Rayquaza's territory.
Towards this kind of foreign species invading without permission, Rayquaza won't play that useless verbal warning ga every day.
But will go up and just do it.
He must beat the Deoxys until their heads are broken and bleeding, with heavy casualties or even complete annihilation before he rests.
"That is to say, no matter what, this battle cannot end peacefully?"
Cynthia sighed.
Whether helping Rayquaza or helping Deoxys, this battle cannot be avoided.
If one wants to be that neutral middleman and diator, one might even have to take a beating from both sides, or even be focused and killed first.
If a choice must be made.
Leaving aside that the Hoenn League sent them exactly to help the Draconid people.
Just from the standpoint that everyone is a creature of the Blue Planet.
Cynthia and Steven would also definitely prioritize helping the Draconid people and Rayquaza.
"Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Just waiting for them to arrive is fine."
Steven crossed his arms in front of his chest, turning his head to look at Elder Aster and the others,
"I will mobilize the power of the Devon Corporation to constantly monitor the trajectories of teorites near the Blue Planet."
