Thunder roared across the sky.
Golden lightning crashed down toward Sam and Charizard Y in an instant, accompanied by deafening explosions.
"Charizard—Flathrower!"
Sam didn't flinch.
He had already prepared himself the mont he chose to face Zapdos.
Charizard Y opened its jaws, releasing blazing flas into the sky. Proud and fearless, it showed no hesitation—even against a Legendary Pokémon.
Fire and lightning collided midair.
The explosion shook the heavens.
"Charizard—Dragon Dance!"
Sam didn't dare hold back.
Facing a Legendary Pokémon ant going all out from the start.
The mont the command was given, Charizard began a powerful, rhythmic movent in the air.
Energy surged through its body.
Its strength and speed rose rapidly.
Within seconds—
Charizard Y had fully powered up.
Without hesitation, it attacked.
"Dragon Rage!"
Dragon energy gathered instantly in its mouth, condensing into a massive sphere.
With a roar—
The attack shot toward Zapdos.
At the sa ti—
Tyranitar had already completed its preparation.
A crimson Tailed Beast Cloak covered its body as violent energy surged within.
The Tailed Beast Ball was ready.
Two devastating attacks—
Launched simultaneously.
Zapdos narrowed its eyes.
For the first ti, it felt unease.
These weren't ordinary opponents.
They had the power to threaten it.
The mont it realized this—
Zapdos stopped underestimating them.
It spread its wings wide.
The wind howled.
Rain roared.
Thunder raged.
All the elents converged, forming a terrifying symphony of nature.
At the center—
Zapdos stood unmoving.
Lightning poured down from all directions, forming a dense barrier around it.
An absolute defense of thunder.
Charizard Y's Dragon Rage barely broke through the outer layers before being destroyed.
Tyranitar's Tailed Beast Ball lasted longer—
But it still failed to reach Zapdos itself.
Rain slid down Sam's face.
He wiped it away, his expression cold as he thought rapidly.
Deoxys was still locked in a stalemate with Moltres.
Neither side could finish the other.
Lorelei could only hold back Articuno—not defeat it.
That ant—
Everything depended on him.
If he could take down Zapdos—
He could turn the tide by joining either side.
But—
How?
Even the viewers watching from around the world felt the pressure.
Through the screen alone, they could sense Zapdos' overwhelming power.
They couldn't imagine what Sam was facing directly.
Silently—
Many began to pray for him.
A sharp cry snapped Sam out of his thoughts.
He looked up—
And his scalp tingled.
The lightning barrier around Zapdos had begun to move.
Countless bolts surged toward him all at once.
"Tyranitar—Sandstorm! Block the lightning!"
"Charizard—Fire Blast after Dragon Dance!"
Sam reacted instantly.
Tyranitar roared, no longer holding back.
It spread its arms wide—
And summoned a massive sandstorm.
Wind and sand exploded outward from the battlefield's center.
In monts, the entire area was engulfed.
Lightning and sand collided violently.
Explosions echoed without end.
Even the helicopter in the distance couldn't withstand it.
Gravel slamd against its body and rotors.
The pilot panicked and imdiately pulled away from the battlefield.
Reporter Ami opened her mouth—
But said nothing.
This was no longer just a news story.
Staying any longer ant certain death.
The helicopter retreated quickly.
Leaving behind—
A battlefield where nature itself had gone mad.
And at the center of it all—
Sam stood, facing a god of thunder.
