Chapter 304: Triple Battle, Steam of Dual Weather, and Sky-Quake

Souls were dancing; the fallen Pokémon received the blessings of the spirits of Heaven Tower, while the victors were sung of in praise.

N felt his soul burning fiercely, like a flame, exactly as that pale silver dragon had described!

Life was blooming in its most radiant posture. The fallen Pokémon all harbored reluctance and the desire to fight again; they entrusted this wish to the Pokémon that followed, making them even stronger!

"Hm?"

Guang Tai sensed the surge of power in N. That immense desire and conviction seemed to have been inherited by the other Pokémon.

"If Touko and Touya are both heroes, then N, who stands against them, should possess the same power. Is 'Seeker's Conviction' the ability to let subsequent Pokémon inherit the conviction of the fallen, triggering a burst of power to become stronger?"

If that were the case, the longer the battle went on, the stronger the subsequent Pokémon would become. This could perhaps be seen as a manifestation of the power of bonds, though N would likely call it—

"Let me show you the ultimate love for my friends radiating from my entire being!"

"My friends support me, and I support them. The fallen friends haven't failed; they have simply opened up more possibilities for those who come after. This is the calculation of conviction and inheritance!"

N's desire to fight had surged for some unknown reason, but Guang Tai could see that it was the spirits clustering around him!

Likewise, there were spirits of Pokémon around him as well!

Their fighting spirit was burning, feeling the beauty of life. Fighting was the meaning of survival, and for this, they poured all their power into the fallen, just to witness a more powerful, more vigorous battle!

"The third one, Arcanine!"

Sure enough, N's third Pokémon was the Arcanine from his summer team, possessing high base stats and the unique classification of "Legendary Pokémon"!

"Yatu!"

The harsh sun was still shining, and the Pokémon Guang Tai sent out was Torterra!

With the colors of maple leaves and the sacred white tree on its back, Torterra landed, causing the Arcanine to narrow its eyes. Just by looking at its appearance, one could tell this wasn't some weak Grass-type; the giant dog let out a low growl.

Intimidate!

It intimidated the opponent upon entering the field, causing them to flinch and lowering their Attack!

Yet Torterra remained unmoved; a powerful ancient spirit echoed in its will, negating the effects of Intimidate!

At the same time, a green light shone on Torterra's body!

Overgrow activated at the start, as a sign of respect!

"However... that Torterra... is that green power... Overgrow?!"

That ability could be activated right from the start?

N felt as if his knowledge had been overturned; that was supposed to be a burst ability that only triggered when HP was low!

Guang Tai: "Theoretically, yes. However, my Torterra has learned Ancient Power, so under the harsh sun, Overgrow can be activated proactively!"

"As for my dragon... of course, it must be... kept to deal with your last two!"

N fell silent, but a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

Thundurus and Tornadus? They had been infected by this battle and were shouting loudly from within their Poké Balls! They wanted to join the fight immediately and had been blaming him for his poor command!

Ah... perhaps that was true, but it didn't matter. His failure only meant his strength was still lacking; that was precisely why he had requested their assistance!

"Your Torterra is not only unique in appearance but also extraordinary in speed. Its heart is a chaotic mess..."

"I can't read it anymore." N felt helpless.

Torterra seemed calm on the surface, but its inner thoughts were always chaotic before a battle; yet, once the fight began, that mindset would vanish instantly...!

"My Torterra's speed is no ordinary thing. If you think it's clumsy, you're going to suffer."

"Awoo!" Arcanine roared, rushing toward Torterra at incredible speed, its body covered in intense flames!

Flame Charge! It covered its body in flames to attack the opponent, building up power to increase its speed!

Torterra was the type of fighter that couldn't handle speed-based opponents; this Pokémon was too cumbersome. N read the muttering in Torterra's heart—this Torterra seemed calm on the surface, but its psychological activity was unexpectedly high.

It was thinking about what move to use, various chaotic moves spinning in its mind like a lottery, which made N feel that this Torterra might be the crucial breakthrough!

Torterra's body emitted a life force, and a silver radiance shone on its shell!

Iron Defense! It drastically increased its Defense!

Guang Tai gave the command in his heart.

Shell Smash!

A red light washed over Torterra. Two consecutive Shell Smashes drastically lowered its Defense, but a White Herb triggered, instantly restoring the lowered stats!

Its Attack, Special Attack, and Speed had all increased drastically!

"Wood Hammer."

A ground-shaking impact infused with all its strength! It was a move with immense power, comparable to a Ground-type "Close Combat"!

Torterra lunged at Arcanine!

Boom! The collision of the two giant beasts caused Heaven Tower to tremble. The ancient tower utilized technology beyond the understanding of the world, so even intense battles wouldn't cause the floors to collapse!

The Ground-type energy triggered an explosion, and Arcanine let out a pained yelp!

N's gaze sharpened, and he conveyed his intent.

Now, use Reversal!

Arcanine's pained expression suddenly vanished; its eyes widened, its body coiled, and it slammed back into Torterra!

The powerful impact shook the very sky!

It attacked with all its might. The less HP it had, the greater the move's power!

The effect of this hit...

N's expression was incomparably solemn.

Arcanine's counterattack had indeed worked, but Torterra's body began to shine with a brilliant light. It was "Synthesis"!

The sacred tree on Torterra's back began to sway, and the Revival Herbs scattered their power. Only then did N see clearly the strange plants on Torterra's back... Power Herbs and Revival Herbs?!

These didn't count as held items because they were growing on Torterra's body!

"This?!"

Incomprehensible!

Countless branches grew from the tree, condensing immense Grass-type energy!

The immensely powerful "Wood Hammer"!

This heavy blow sent the dog flying, nearly knocking it unconscious!

"Conviction will be inherited... I firmly believe this. Don't give up, Arcanine!"

N suddenly abandoned telepathic command, and under his shout, the Arcanine, whose HP had been like a candle in the wind, suddenly let out a roar!

Howl! It roared loudly to boost its spirit, increasing its own and its ally's Attack! Then, Flare Blitz!

This violent collision nearly sent Torterra flying. At this moment, Guang Tai felt the power on that Arcanine beginning to surge!

The power of the two defeated Pokémon poured endlessly into Arcanine's body, and the spirits of Heaven Tower amplified this effect!

Bang! Flames erupted on Torterra's body; it was the secondary effect of Flare Blitz—a Burn!

"A 10% chance triggered? It seems the effect of conviction isn't just increasing power and triggering a burst when near death, but also increasing the trigger rate of secondary effects."

Burn: The Pokémon takes damage each turn due to the burn, and the damage dealt by physical attacks is reduced.

"Hmph!" Torterra reorganized its stance. The Arcanine had suddenly become a formidable foe. It began using Extreme Speed to find an opening. Facing a move with +2 priority, even with the speed boost from Shell Smash, it was meaningless.

But fortunately, Guang Tai had obtained priority-action ability through the Unova Link; this was also a form of priority power. Although it was dangerous to face Extreme Speed, as long as the timing was grasped correctly!

Arcanine's mouth condensed flames. If it wanted to land a fatal blow, using the maximum power "Overheat" was the ideal choice, but if it didn't defeat the opponent in one hit, the side effect of Overheat would lower its power, requiring time to recover.

Therefore, the safe method was—Extreme Speed + Flamethrower!

Arcanine felt N's conviction; it understood that this Torterra was the breakthrough point. If it could defeat this Torterra, the spirits of the Pokémon circling around would cheer for it!

This was a stage to prove its strength and a place to let life's radiance bloom. It couldn't be defeated so miserably!

Let's go like this!

That was exactly what Arcanine thought, but the next moment, Torterra suddenly began to glow!

The intense light blinded Arcanine instantly!

"Awoo!!"

Flash! It emitted a dazzling light to lower the opponent's accuracy!

Of course, in a pinch, this move could also act as... a "Solar Flare"!

"Whoa, we got blinded too!"

"Such an intense flash...!"

The spectators were not spared either!

Taking advantage of Arcanine being blinded, Torterra's attack began!

A burn? That kind of thing was useless for a Torterra that could grow its own healing berries!

The Wood Hammer, infused with its heart's intent, struck Arcanine once more. This time, the impact was full of power; the giant dog was sent flying, and although it tried desperately to stand up, it eventually collapsed with a wail!

"Yatu!"

Torterra declared its victory.

A lucky win. I was nearly finished off by your combo, but fortunately, I was the more skilled one!

N adjusted his cap. He also struggled to open his eyes; the intense flash had nearly blinded him too. The others around were the same, while Guang Tai had prepared in advance by wearing black glasses.

Click... crack!

Angry sounds came from his waist. Thundurus and Tornadus could no longer hold back. Currently, Guang Tai hadn't lost a single Pokémon. If this continued, the result would only be a miserable defeat!

They were symbols of powerful strength, the Gods of Wind and Thunder! They would never allow themselves to lose to the emissary of Landorus!

And so, without N's control, the two Poké Balls opened on their own. Accompanied by a gale and a thunderstorm, the two Gods of Wind and Thunder charged directly into the battlefield!

The violent wind was like a blade, the surging thunder like a heavenly drum. Tornadus and Thundurus stared at Guang Tai, letting out a provocative roar!

You emissary of the gods, don't be too arrogant. We brothers haven't even taken the field yet!

"It's Tornadus and Thundurus... the legendary Pokémon of Mistralton City!"

Skyla's expression became solemn; she had been watching the battlefield nervously.

"It's like watching a myth..."

Mr. Watt also gripped his paintbrush tightly in shock.

To think someone could capture the violent Gods of Wind and Thunder and make them engage in a Pokémon battle?!

The two young men fighting here were both extraordinary!

"A Double Battle...? No, let's make it a Triple Battle. Triple Battles are also a unique way of fighting in Unova, aren't they?"

Guang Tai proposed to N:

"It seems they couldn't hold back anymore. You really did ask these two Pokémon to help you, and they have hostility toward me. Is it because I represent Landorus?"

"No, it seems there's also greed for something... I see."

Guang Tai looked at the two Pokémon: "Do you want to obtain the Griseous Orb?"

"Thundurus?"

"Tornadus!"

The Gods of Wind and Thunder looked at each other. They now knew exactly what "treasure" was attracting them.

To think it was the Griseous Orb! No wonder it had such a strong attraction for them, who possessed the Flying type! If they could obtain that orb, Thundurus challenged Guang Tai!

If you lose, hand over the Griseous Orb to us!

And Tornadus and Thundurus had even more thoughts in their hearts. Both wanted to obtain the Griseous Orb and use the power within it to overwhelm their brother! Obviously, even if they obtained the orb, they would still have to fight each other once more!

"You know the rules. If you want it, come and take it yourself."

(Meaningless ukulele sounds.)

Guang Tai threw the remaining three Poké Balls!

Larvesta appeared, emitting dazzling fiery light. Upon appearing, it automatically triggered a small-scale Sunny Day. The weather anomaly caused by the Gods of Wind and Thunder was briefly suppressed in a vacuum zone. Larvesta radiated intense light and heat, spitting sparks and glaring, showing no fear even when facing two ancient gods, instead eager to try!

The bug felt it was in great shape!

"Woof!" Riolu and Basculegion appeared on the other sides. The Aura Guardian and the Ancient Dragon looked solemn, while Tornadus and Thundurus swept their gazes over the three Pokémon.

A Larvesta that could trigger light and heat? Although rare and powerful, it was still unevolved.

A blue puppy, an extremely rare Riolu, but Fighting-type was completely countered by Flying-type, and this guy hadn't evolved either!

As for that dragon, its roar was deafening and brought a strange sense of oppression, but its color clearly indicated it was a Water-type, nothing to fear!

And the thoughts of Basculegion and Riolu...

Legendary Gods of the Clouds?!

This was indeed a great opportunity to test their strength!

And since they were fighting the King of Team Plasma, they could release their anger.

With all their heart and soul, go all out!

Riolu placed its small paw gently on its chest, reciting the mantra Guang Tai had taught it.

Aura is within my heart!

Basculegion let out a violent roar!

Are these ancient cloud gods here to open a Rain Dance for me?

I've been waiting for a chance to go wild for a long time! If they're legendary Pokémon... hunting them should be interesting!

Don't go down too easily!

Basculegion's eyes became fierce. It entered hunting mode!

"A Triple Battle, then. Very well, let the final battle reach its climax! Let's decide the winner in one go!"

N's last Pokémon was, of course, Darmanitan, who had been following him. The red Darmanitan landed, saw Guang Tai, and nodded from afar, greeting him.

Well, although we're acquaintances, this time we're opponents!

Shauntal: "Darmanitan, huh... Fire-type power will be suppressed in windy and rainy weather."

N smiled: "It doesn't matter. Darmanitan will inherit the power of the other fallen friends!"

"Perhaps type effectiveness isn't that important."

This sentence made Guang Tai pause.

What, are you, Master N, also trying to be a "Reverse Type Master"?

The battle was about to break out!

Larvesta wriggled, triggering flames and sunlight. The little bug couldn't wait and charged out first!

Dazzling flames ignited; it was as if it had transformed into a small sun!

"Such intense sunlight... the talent of this Larvesta is extraordinary."

"It says it represents the offspring of the god of the Ancient City... it must not lose...?"

N's expression was stunned.

Offspring of the god of the Ancient City?

What was the past of this Pokémon? He wanted to continue reading, but there was no time left.

Basculegion let out a powerful war cry in the back!

Dragon Cheer, increasing morale with a dragon's cheer, making our moves more likely to land critical hits!

"Although Tornadus and Thundurus fight each other, from an elemental perspective, Thundurus completely suppresses Tornadus. In this situation, Tornadus can still fight Thundurus to a draw, which means Tornadus is stronger, right?"

Guang Tai suddenly spoke, and a vein of anger appeared on Thundurus's forehead!

How dare he say Tornadus was stronger than him!

Damn this new-era gym leader, he really has no eye for talent!

I thought the emissary of the gods would have some high-level insight, but I didn't expect such vulgar words!

"Thundurus, don't be distracted! That's a provocation!" N was extremely helpless!

A trainer using words to confuse the battling Pokémon...

That seemed like something he had done before!

However, the enraged Thundurus had already swung an Arm Hammer at Tornadus. Fortunately, N had already communicated with Tornadus telepathically, avoiding the bizarre scene of brothers starting an internal conflict as soon as they took the field.

But just because of this momentary lapse, Larvesta had already charged to the front!

Violent flames covered its entire body!

Solar Flare Blitz!

This hit sent Thundurus flying from mid-air. Thundurus felt the scorching flames on its chest and cried out in pain!

So hot, so hot, so hot! What's going on with this little bug, what is this ultimate power?!

"Very effective? The power is beyond imagination..."

Thundurus wasn't countered by Fire-type. Skyla was an expert on Flying-types; she knew that for the Lei Zhishen to show such an expression, it meant the Larvesta's strength was not to be underestimated.

The power of Flare Blitz had reached the level of a super-effective hit?! But Larvesta hadn't even evolved yet!

Tornadus's pupils shrank, and it immediately lashed out with a series of Air Cutters!

But the next moment, a larger storm rose from the ground, directly shattering its Air Cutter!

Copycat: Hurricane!

Riolu made a gesture of releasing Aura, mimicking Tornadus's Hurricane in an instant. This enraged Tornadus, and it used its signature move, Bleakwind Storm!

Thundurus also grabbed Larvesta in an instant, followed by a powerful Discharge!

The little bug was electrocuted from the sky, but five tentacles suddenly sprayed flames, hovering in mid-air like a rocket bug. This operation stunned everyone, and at the same time, the Darmanitan, which had been ignored, kept its eyes on Basculegion.

Guang Tai immersed his mind in the battlefield, and the power of his will began to transmit!

N was not to be outdone; he believed in his companions with all his heart, but the only one who could grasp this was Darmanitan, while Tornadus and Thundurus were quite arrogant and difficult to communicate with completely.

"Roar!" Basculegion let out a dragon roar, its two tails swinging, and a violent Dragon-type storm rose from the ground, not only sweeping toward Darmanitan but also trying to pull Tornadus and Thundurus down from the sky!

Twister: Create a huge tornado around the opponent to sweep them up for an attack. Sometimes causes the opponent to flinch!

"Hmph!" Facing the provocation of the Twister, Thundurus and Tornadus showed disdain. Storms were mere child's play to them. They used Bleakwind Storm and Wildbolt Storm simultaneously, pushing the Twister back with immense power!

However, a thick column of steam erupted from the storm, and the boiling, rolling water hit Tornadus violently!

The impact pierced through its entire body!

"Waaaaah!"

Tornadus felt its body heating up rapidly. The scorching water vapor, carrying unparalleled power, nearly melted it away!

What move is this! How can it be so powerful!

N: "That move... does a Water-type move have such power when used in Sunny Day weather?"

Although the dual cloud gods had caused weather anomalies, the steam was covered by the intense sunlight Larvesta had triggered, meaning... could it be that Rain and Sunny Day were coexisting?

Basculegion had the most say in this!

This was the best thing it had ever seen!

Steam Eruption: When the sun is intense, the move's power not only doesn't decrease, but it becomes 1.5 times stronger! And in the rain, the power also increases by 1.5 times!

When it received the bonuses of both Sunny Day and Rain...

Then, for whom was the rain falling?

Shauntal's glasses were dampened by the rain, making it hard for her to see the situation on the field, but the entire area, from the sky to the ground, was already covered by the permeating steam:

"Rain and Sunny Day are coexisting! Theoretically, it should be impossible."

Weather should be a case of the latter covering the former. Of course, if the Pokémon triggering the weather is too powerful, it's hard to suppress that weather setter even with moves or abilities that trigger the same.

Weather should be covering the first hand with the second hand. Of course, if the Pokémon that triggers the weather is too powerful, even if there are moves or abilities that trigger the weather, it is difficult to suppress that weather setter.

By the way, the sunlight triggered by that Larvesta could actually...

Eh? Wait, does Larvesta have the Drought ability?

Even Shauntal couldn't help but ponder. Pokémon matters weren't simple to figure out; even the most knowledgeable Pokémon professors didn't understand many things.

Well, regardless of whether it was manual Sunny Day or ability-triggered, in short, the power of this Larvesta was truly extraordinary, completely unlike what an unevolved Pokémon could use.

"Just now, that person said this Larvesta is the offspring of a god?" Skyla was puzzled.

Shauntal: "Regardless, write it down first. This is excellent creative material!"

"However..." Skyla pursed her lips, showing a rare look of contemplation:

"That blue dragon, the Water-type move it used, I've never seen it before! That power doesn't seem to come just from the rain."

Could it be that it also received the bonus of the Sunny Day weather?

But, does such a move really exist?

With this kind of power, even the legendary Gods of Wind and Thunder couldn't resist it!

"Tornadus!" Tornadus felt dizzy and nearly vomited blood, being blasted down by a spray!

Thundurus, seeing this, swung its arms and unleashed a thick Thunder!

Riolu made a gesture to release Aura, preparing to Copycat.

The next moment, its body stiffened.

Darmanitan was beckoning to it!

Taunt! Make the opponent angry. For a short time, the opponent can only use moves that deal damage!

Copycat is a status move.

No matter how powerful the "Sharingan" is, if it's blocked, it's useless.

This made the blue-furred puppy bare its fangs!

"Awoo!"

Damn, Taunt again!

How can this move be so nasty!

The blue-furred puppy immediately gave up the idea of using Copycat for support and charged toward Darmanitan!

Thunder Punch + Close Combat!

Darmanitan also laughed, and a silver light shone on its forehead under N's command!

Iron Head + Hammer Arm!

The lightning fist and the iron head collided. The blue-furred puppy launched a fierce assault on the red-furred baboon, but Darmanitan laughed and suddenly changed its form.

Zen Mode.

When at a disadvantage in battle, it retracts its limbs and stands still like a rock.

This is Zen Mode.

At this time, its body is cyan, and its eyes are completely white. Its Defense, Special Defense, and Special Attack increase drastically, its Speed decreases, and its type changes to Fire + Psychic.

A powerful psychic force surged forward!

Riolu was controlled by the psychic force. The blue-furred puppy bared its fangs, while Darmanitan let out a low chant like a monk.

But fortunately, the blue-furred puppy mastered many auras.

It emitted a fierce power from its eyes, and dark energy appeared on its claws. Amidst Darmanitan's puzzled gaze, a Dark Pulse accurately shattered the psychic force and sent it flying!

What was that?

Malice... carrying the stars of the universe!?

Larvesta collided with Thundurus in the sky using "Rocket Flare Blitz," but Tornadus, which had been knocked to the ground, fired a series of Air Cutters at the sky!

"Roar!"

Tornadus lowered its head, panting, and saw the Ancient Dragon charging toward it!

Ugh!

The green-skinned muscle man grabbed Basculegion's upper and lower jaws, using all its strength, veins bulging on its forehead, not wanting to let Basculegion open its mouth!

This blue dragon would spray high-temperature steam from its mouth. As long as it locked its mouth, it could...

Tornadus's eyes widened in anger!

It must not let it spray!

By the way, this dragon I've never seen before...

It's so strong!

"Ooooooh!" Tornadus let out a roar!

A green dragon claw smashed down from one side!

Tornadus was slapped away with immense force.

Basculegion opened its dragon mouth, and the dual-weather steam, rolling and surging, gathered in its mouth once more!

If it were hit by this again, its HP would inevitably enter the "candle in the wind" state!

"Thundurus (Brother, I'll help you!)"

"Bolt (Brother, I'm here to help you!)"

N conveyed the command in his heart.

Double Team, then Arm Hammer.

Although Thundurus was in a state of rage, it still heard N's command, so it instantly split into dozens of phantoms, punching simultaneously before Basculegion could react!

Arm Hammer! Swing a powerful and heavy fist to deal damage to the opponent. Its own Speed will decrease!

This punch interrupted the move Basculegion was guiding, but Thundurus's fist was bitten directly by Basculegion, followed by intense flames spraying from Basculegion's mouth!

"Thundurus!"

Flamethrower hit Thundurus at point-blank range, burning the blue-skinned muscle man black.

But Tornadus had already taken the opportunity to recover its stamina.

It returned to the sky and, under N's command, whipped up a violent gale!

Tailwind! Increase the Speed of all allies!

Thundurus and Tornadus changed their fighting style. They clearly realized that the three Pokémon in front of them were also difficult opponents. What was that special power lingering on them?

Tornadus and Thundurus gathered their power and smashed toward the center of Heaven Tower from different directions!

Bleakwind & Wildbolt Dual Storm!

The Ancient Dragon roared, and the blue-furred puppy, which had been entangled with Darmanitan, jumped onto Basculegion's back, both launching moves in two directions!

Dragon Pulse x2!

The storm and the dragon pulse collided, exploding into smoke, mixing with the wind, rain, and sunlight, engulfing the battlefield.

"Hoo... strength is evenly matched?"

"Fighting the legendary Gods of Wind and Thunder to a draw... no, they even have a slight upper hand!"

Shauntal saw the situation on the battlefield!

Although the Gods of Wind and Thunder were constantly wandering in the sky looking for openings, this was actually a sign of weakness. Because it was difficult to win in a head-on confrontation, they had changed their fighting style, but was this really feasible?

"Mela—"

Whoosh, the little flying bug is here!

Larvesta flew back like a little rocket, very happy with the operation of spraying fire with five tentacles, smashing into Thundurus again and knocking it out of the sky!

Tornadus immediately turned to support, but suddenly felt something extra on its body!

Thump!

In the permeating wind, rain, and exploding dust, Riolu located Tornadus through Aura.

In the diffuse wind and rain and the dust of the explosion, Riolu located Tornadus through aura.

Tornadus frowned, not understanding Guang Tai's action.

Suddenly, it felt something extra on its body and began to grope around!

The held berry... the anti-electric berry was gone!

A small, strange item had been accurately swapped onto Tornadus's body!

Now!

Guang Tai revealed a smile of successful plotting!

Riolu also curled its lips and immediately assumed a starting stance for a move!

"What is that item... Ring Target!"

Skyla looked at Tornadus in the sky and shouted in shock!

"It's an item developed in Opelucid City. It's very difficult to use. The Pokémon holding this item..."

"In short, moves that were originally ineffective due to type effectiveness will now be able to hit itself! It's a strange item!"

Hearing Skyla's voice, Guang Tai was surprised in his heart.

So the Ring Target already existed. However, considering Opelucid City had ancient traditions, it was easy for them to tinker with some black technology. The Ring Target was also obtained in Opelucid City in the games.

Precisely because it was strange, few people used it, but sometimes, it could achieve very cool results.

Like now.

An invisible vibration emanated from Riolu's hands. The rippling shockwaves condensed and spread along the air, wind, and rain around Heaven Tower, transmitting toward Tornadus in the sky at incredible speed!

The great bell of Heaven Tower also began to sway and hum due to this vibration. By the time Tornadus realized a force was sweeping over, it was too late!

Move: Earthquake!

Flying-types are immune to Ground-type moves, but there are three exceptions: first, holding an Iron Ball; second, being grounded; and third... holding a Ring Target!

Rather than an earthquake, it was a Sky-Quake!

A strike from a distance that triggered a tremor in the sky!
