Chapter 209 A devastating thunderbolt shakes the earth! A legendary Pokémon, bearing thunderclouds,
Chapter 209 A devastating thunderbolt shakes the earth! A legendary Pokémon, bearing thunderclouds, exudes fury and majesty!
Ye Yinchuan admired the Pokémon's posture.
Like a cat that walks upright, its body has a classic electric black and yellow color scheme. The fur on its torso, face, and limbs is short and black, like its skin, while the fur on other parts of its body is long and yellow, like its clothes, creating a clear distinction.
Besides the black lightning patterns on its body, its most distinctive feature is the blue accents.
It has a tuft of hair on its head, lightning-shaped blue whiskers, as well as chest hair and paw pads.
It is these blue parts that give it its distinctive characteristics.
In addition, although its hands are claws, it can also clench into fists, and with the help of lightning, it can deliver powerful blows to enemies.
It has no tail, but it has a long, tail-like hair with lightning bolt-like markings extending from behind it...
Like hair, like ribbons, it adds a cool and elegant feel to this Pokémon.
"Wow, that's so cool, Electric Cat!"
While Zapdos is cool and imposing, Electabuzz, a bipedal, almost humanoid Pokémon, feels different...
Most importantly, Electric Cat is very fast, as can be seen from its attack on Zapdos just now, and its punches were powerful and impactful.
Of course, Ye Yinchuan's attitude towards Pokémon was quite subtle.
Like Electric Cat, Mewtwo, and Gardevoir, they are all close to humanoid and have a high appearance and a high level of sophistication.
At this point, some people might ask, "Is Mewtwo not good-looking, or is Gardevoir not impressive enough?"
And remember, being handsome is a feeling.
Although Gardevoir is not a legendary Pokémon, it holds a significant place in people's hearts, and in terms of the original work, it is definitely a very successful design.
However, Ye Yinchuan didn't have much time to introduce the electric cat to the audience at this moment.
Zapdos and Electabuzz, these two legendary Pokémon, are locked in a fierce battle.
Just like Suicune and Entei, the individual stats and base stats of legendary Pokémon are not visible.
Zapdos has a whopping three abilities: Lightning Rod, Static, and Intimidate—one more than Suicune and Entei!
Ye Yinchuan also remembered.
Lightning Rod was Zapdos's once god-tier ability, but it was removed because it was too overpowered...
But in this world, Zapdos has reclaimed what is rightfully his!
Based on the "lightning rod" effect in the game, Zapdos should also be immune to Electric-type damage. In fact, it should even gain an increase in its Special Attack after being hit by an Electric-type attack...
But why can an electric cat cause it harm?
Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that in this world, the effect of a "lightning rod" is to reduce electric-type damage and increase one's own special attack, but it cannot provide complete immunity.
Furthermore, immunity to special attacks is greater than immunity to physical attacks.
While Electabuzz's "Thunder Punch" uses Electric-type energy, it deals physical damage by acting as a physical entity, which is why it can inflict relatively significant damage on Zapdos.
"I see."
When Ye Yinchuan understood this, his mind was at peace.
The Electric Cat's ability is "electricity storage," which explains why it can more easily defend against Zapdos's attacks.
In this world, the effect of "electricity storage" cannot completely prevent electrical damage, but it can greatly reduce it. Moreover, when injured by electrical damage, one can absorb electricity to restore one's stamina and energy.
In the blink of an eye, the two Electric-type legendary Pokémon were locked in a fierce battle.
Zeraora is extremely fast, almost able to react to Zapdos's lightning strikes.
But Zapdos's "Thunder" attack is like it consumes no resources and just keeps hitting without cost.
As expected, Pokémon that can't fly are at a huge disadvantage against Flying-type Pokémon!
When a comment floats by like this.
The electricity surging from Zeraora's body formed a magnetic field, causing her to levitate and ascend into the air. She even used the psychic-type "Agility," and because of the excessive speed, its performance was almost indistinguishable from "Instant Transmission."
After taking off, the Electric Cat approached Zapdos and began punching and kicking it.
Meanwhile, Zapdos flapped its wings, unleashing a barrage of lightning strikes, and its Electromagnetic Cannon continued to bombard the area.
The surrounding forest was engulfed in flames by lightning strikes. Some Pokémon were caught in the crossfire and seriously injured. The ground was shattered and charred, leaving behind a scene of devastation.
The two mythical beasts were clearly engrossed in their fight.
Zapdos let out a fierce cry, and its energy suddenly erupted and condensed in its mouth.
"This move is... the Hyper Beam!"
Ye Yinchuan noticed that Zapdos seemed to realize that ordinary Electric-type moves were difficult to effectively damage Electabuzz, so it used the Normal-type super move "Hyper Beam" instead!
"Destruction Ray" is the official name for this move, but Ye Yinchuan prefers to call it "Destruction Death Ray," a name that truly captures its brutality!
This move has a power of 150 points, which is the ultimate violent output!
hum!
The terrifying energy rubbed against each other, emitting a high-frequency vibration, and was about to unleash a beam of light from Zapdos's mouth that would destroy everything.
Faced with Zapdos's impending powerful attack, Zeraora did not sit idly by. Instead, it clenched its fists and released dazzling blue-white lightning, which intertwined to form a special electric net that quickly spread outwards.
Instead of charging up the Hyper Beam, Zeraora unleashed a terrifying double punch at Zapdos the moment it released its energy. The speed and power were so great that it seemed to shatter the air itself!
"Plasma Lightning Fist!"
Ye Yinchuan's pupils contracted as he realized that Zeraora had also unleashed her own signature move.
This move is similar to "Plasma Bath," but stronger and has a power of 100 points. In addition to producing special effects, it can also directly cause powerful damage.
In short, its effect can be described as being able to turn Normal-type moves into Electric-type moves!
boom!
Zapdos's attack followed immediately afterward.
[That's a destructive beam! How dare they take it head-on?]
[Zaporn is too strong! It's just as good as Zapdos!]
Bang!
With a terrifying surge of energy, powerful lightning swept across everything around, even causing the lake below to explode, and the surrounding forest to turn into a raging inferno...
The sky was dark, yet filled with the light of thunder; the rain continued incessantly, but was almost drowned out by the explosions…
The mythical beasts were fighting fiercely, and the scene before us was like the end of the world!
Bang!Bang!Bang!
The aftershocks of the energy collision alone created a large crater in the surrounding ground, and rocks shattered...
The person connecting was hit by the shockwave, and the entire view seemed to be spinning in the air. Even the lens cracked, and because they couldn't hold it steady, the image jumped away from the two mythical beasts.
Are you alright?
At this moment, Ye Yinchuan was also worried for the person on the other end of the line.
In the vicinity of a battle of this magnitude, if one were truly struck by the aftershocks, not only would a trainer be reduced to charred remains, but even a Pokémon could be instantly turned into ashes or even vanish into thin air.
"It's okay, streamer, I'm fine..."
The person connecting to the camera seemed to get up from the ground, and the camera focused on the two mythical beasts again.
At this moment, Zeraora had already landed on the ground, supporting her body, half-squatting on the ground, looking covered in wounds.
Around Zeraora's body and in a large area behind her, there were traces left by the Hyper Beam. An entire forest had almost completely disappeared along the trajectory of the Hyper Beam.
Apart from being razed to the ground and even having a large depression forming a huge ravine, there was nothing left!
Zapdos was also flapping its wings, flying weakly at low altitude, seemingly exhausted, and some of its feathers had fallen off.
Behind it, two huge cavities appeared in the mountain, the damage caused by the aftershocks of Zeraora's "Plasma Lightning Fist"!
It can be said that the two divine beasts were evenly matched, neither able to gain the upper hand. After a fierce battle, both showed signs of exhaustion, resulting in a draw for both of them!
If you were to get even slightly grazed by it, wouldn't you end up with bruises all over?
[We're so lucky! Anyone heading in this direction, no matter which side they're attacked from, is doomed!]
[Oh dear, the innocent Pokémon around here, and this forest environment...]
Aren't legendary Pokémon supposed to be friendly and protect nature and wild Pokémon?
I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.
Upon seeing the last comment, Ye Yinchuan seemed to be deep in thought.
Perhaps it's because Ho-Oh and the three legendary beasts are so friendly that even Articuno and Moltres, two of the legendary beasts, are very proactive in helping humans and Pokémon...
That's probably why people have this misconception, right?
Whether they're legendary or mythical, aside from a few special cases, they're all, in the end, wild Pokémon...
Even domesticated Pokémon can go berserk and pose a certain danger, let alone wild ones.
Divine beasts with immense power are even more dangerous.
Even if we take a step back and assume that Dragonite, which is known for its friendliness, has its moments of rampage, and the damage it causes is reckless...
Not to mention, at the very beginning of the battle, Zapdos and Zeraora were holding back against the surrounding Pokémon, sometimes deliberately avoiding them or protecting them...
In other words, the Pokémon were given enough time to escape, but those who stayed behind to watch the show would eventually lose their minds once the fighting got heated.
This is like a human who loves animals and likes cats and dogs. In normal times, when they encounter cats and dogs, they might feed and pet them. But when driving on the highway, if they encounter a cat and a dog and cannot change lanes or brake in time, they can only crash into them...
Because at this point, how can I protect you?
It's a mythical beast, not a saint!
Zapdos and Zeraora are relatively mild; the most brutal legendary Pokémon are Yveltal, which indiscriminately absorbs the life force of all creatures within its range, causing a cataclysmic event that petrifies everything. Then there's the legendary man-eating Kyurem, which devoured an entire village...
Not to mention, there is a cruel predator-prey relationship among Pokémon, where the strong prey on the weak.
In the early days, Pokémon were considered magical beasts by humans.
Divine beasts are merely incredibly powerful beings among magical beasts, or rather... whether they are gods or demons is just a matter of a single thought!
Ye Yinchuan had considered using the [Heavenly Hand] to appease the two divine beasts and resolve their conflict.
He had already thought it through. If he were to use it, he would have to use both sides simultaneously to prevent one side from losing the fight while the other still wanted to continue, which could result in one side suffering heavy losses.
Unfortunately, Zapdos and Zeraora were too fast and constantly moving, making it difficult for Ye Yinchuan to keep up. Moreover, less than three minutes had passed since they activated their abilities, and he hadn't been able to seize a suitable opportunity.
Now, the opportunity has arrived.
Just as Ye Yinchuan was about to give it a try, a thunderbolt struck down from the sky.
The two mythical beasts, and everyone else's attention, were drawn to them.
Because this lightning bolt was so powerful, it was in no way inferior to Zapdos or Zeraora!
With a long, thunderous howl, the surrounding earth trembled, and a familiar figure emerged, bathed in lightning.
It walks on all fours, has a robust body, and resembles a saber-toothed tiger with sharp fangs. As an Electric-type Pokémon, its golden fur also has black markings.
However, unlike typical Electric-type Pokémon, the markings on this Pokémon don't resemble lightning bolts, but rather some kind of ancient rune, exuding an aura of dominance and majesty.
Like a spark's tail, it not only fits the characteristics of the Electric type, but also distinguishes it from most Electric-type Pokémon...
One of the Three Divine Beasts, Lei Gong!
"No, did we really attract the Thunder God?"
Ye Yinchuan thought that having two divine beasts together was the limit, but he didn't expect that Lei Gong would also appear. Was this going to be a three-way brawl? Or was Lei Gong going to reap the benefits?
It is worth mentioning that, as one of the three legendary beasts, Raikou's design is similar to that of Suicune and Entei. For example, the flowing hair behind his head, resembling thunderclouds, is just like hair; the metallic decoration on his head and the "X"-shaped beard exude imperial majesty.
The name Lei Gong seems somewhat mismatched with Shui Jun and Yan Di at first glance.
But if you knew its other name, you might not feel that way.
That is—the Thunder Emperor!
[My goodness! What kind of treasure is in this lake?! Zapdos and Raikou are here! And this Zapdos is definitely a legendary Pokémon!]
[666! Lei Gong is only just making his appearance; it seems he's the sixth one!]
[Hahaha! It has to be Raikou! It's the first Electric-type legendary Pokémon I ever knew, that's what you call impressive!]
Ye Yinchuan's lips curled slightly at the comments on the screen.
At this moment, Zapdos and Zeraora, seeing Raikou descend, dared not make any rash moves and were somewhat wary.
After all, they are all legendary Pokémon, and Zapdos and Zeraora are basically both severely injured...
So right now, the most influential player on the field is undoubtedly Lei Gong!
Lei Gong looked down at the two electric-type divine beasts with a disdainful gaze, revealing both majesty and anger...
The next moment, it roared like thunder at the two divine beasts!
Zapdos and Zeraora also displayed strong hostility...
The atmosphere was tense, like swords were about to be drawn!
[My God! Is the Thunder God going to take on two at once?!]
[Invincible, Thunder God! So domineering! This is truly one of the Three Holy Beasts!]
[Exciting! Tonight's show is so exciting!]
A quick glance at the excited comments on the screen made Ye Yinchuan shake his head.
Do you think the Thunder God came to join them?
Do you think the Thunder God's anger is because he wants to seize the treasure?
The Thunder God's anger stemmed from other reasons!
All I can say is that the Three Divine Beasts truly live up to their name, not because of their strength, but because of other qualities they possess!
Thunder God continued to roar, his innermost thought being—
"You two bastards, open your eyes and see what you've done!"
