Chapter 150: Let's Go Find Groudon to Deal with Mamen!

"It worked!"

The light of evolution completely dispersed, and a brand-new Mega Beedrill appeared right where it stood.

Compared to before Mega Evolution, the changes in Mega Beedrill were very significant: the poison needles on its arms transformed into shapes resembling knight lances, its two feet became double needles, and a huge poison needle sprouted from its tail.

Its momentum was far more fierce than before Mega Evolution, with an aura so sharp and exposed that it was overwhelmingly intimidating.

"Great! With this, we finally have a basic guarantee to fight against Team Rocket."

Steven sighed with relief in his heart; he was still very happy.

Mamen and the others were already strong, and they also mastered Mega Evolution; Steven's pressure was truly too great.

After all, Cynthia and the others were borrowed from other regions; if they couldn't solve the tumor of Team Rocket within this period, once Cynthia and the others returned to their original regions...

... how would the Hoenn League deal with Team Rocket?

And with Mega Evolution, at least there were basic conditions to fight against Hoenn's Team Rocket.

Next, Cynthia and the others each had their main Pokémon try to sense whether they could find the Mega Stone they needed.

The result was that Steven found the Mega Stone for Metagross, and Leon found the Mega Stone for Charizard; worth mentioning was that Leon's Charizard sensed two Mega Stones.

After testing, one form, which turned black and blue, strengthened both offensive stats, and its type also seemed to have changed.

The other form, whose appearance changed little, greatly strengthened Special Attack, and its Ability also changed to Drought, which alters the weather to harsh sunlight.

Leon was very happy; Leon was also very troubled—both forms of Mega Evolution were amazing!

Cynthia found the Mega Stone for her ace, Garchomp; Cynthia was still very satisfied. She also tried it out; after evolving, Mega Garchomp's aggression was astonishingly strong!

She just didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that Mega Garchomp's running speed seemed to have slowed down a bit?

As for Nemona, she obtained a Mega Stone for Altaria; hmm, one of her main team members last year was an Altaria.

This made Nemona quite troubled; to be honest, she had planned to wait until her new team this year was trained up, then demote Altaria to the second team.

But now that she had obtained the Mega Stone for Altaria, it made her very conflicted.

Most importantly... Mega Altaria is so beautiful aaaaaah!!!

Teacher Rice was very sad; his ace, Milotic, still couldn't sense a Mega Stone, whereas Gyarados did sense one.

Hmm, after Mega Evolution, Mega Gyarados successfully replaced Milotic as Teacher Rice's new ace.

Facing Milotic with teary eyes, Teacher Rice vowed that he would definitely find Milotic's Mega Stone!

Milotic is too important to Teacher Wallace!

Seeing that everyone had made gains, Steven was also very happy; otherwise, having Cynthia and the others specially travel such a long distance to help, Steven still felt quite embarrassed.

Then he took everyone to have dinner, and afterward, the group discussed the upcoming plans at the dinner table.

"With Mega Evolution, our combat power has increased greatly, but what about Mewtwo and Groudon?"

Steven was not as cheerful as Teacher Wallace; he still had a good sense of self-awareness.

"Mewtwo is not so hard to discuss; although it is very powerful, there is still a chance." Giovanni said in a low, magnetic voice.

"Our aces can now Mega Evolve; I believe that as long as we work together, defeating Mewtwo is not impossible."

Giovanni's gaze swept over Steven and Cynthia, finally settling on Leon, with deep meaning.

This Galar Champion, although he was late to his first battle because he got lost, leaving people with a first impression of him being somewhat airheaded and speechless...

... in reality, Leon's strength was the strongest in the room besides his own!

Especially Leon's Charizard; Giovanni had also watched Leon and Nemona spar, and that Charizard was a bit too strong.

"Gym Leader Giovanni is absolutely right!" Wallace agreed very much.

That's right; as long as they, these Champions, worked together, so what if it was Mewtwo?

Hearing this, Nemona couldn't help but glance at Wallace, her expression extremely strange, as if she wanted to speak but held back.

"But the key right now is not Mewtwo." Giovanni sighed.

"Groudon!"

Leon frowned and spoke the name of the Pokémon Giovanni was worried about.

"That's right; Ho-Oh and Deoxys are not Mamen's Pokémon. According to Officer Jenny, after the battle ended, someone saw Ho-Oh and Deoxys leaving."

"But Groudon did not; Groudon is Mamen's Pokémon!"

Giovanni said in a deep voice.

As for what came next, Giovanni didn't need to say more; those who had seen the battle in Lavaridge Town all knew very well the power of Primal Groudon.

"Regardless, we can try; we can't just stop moving forward because the opponent is strong, right?" Leon said, seeing the atmosphere grow heavy.

Although, as the invincible Champion of Galar, he actually had little confidence in his heart, as a Champion, he must stand up!

This was Leon's creed: knowing there was little chance of victory, could he give up? No!

"Champion Leon is absolutely right; we have to try." Cynthia agreed.

"Yes, yes! How can we know it won't work without fighting?" Nemona nodded repeatedly.

"And didn't they say that besides Groudon and Rayquaza, there is another Legendary Pokémon?"

Nemona suddenly remembered; in the legends of the Hoenn region, besides the Sky Dragon Rayquaza and the King of the Deep Groudon, there was another Legendary Pokémon, right?

Hearing this, Steven and the others were stunned.

"Nemona, do you mean... the Legendary Groudon?" Steven frowned.

"Yes! Since Mamen has Groudon, we can completely go find Groudon!"

Nemona spoke with righteous indignation.

"Use a Legendary Pokémon to deal with a Legendary Pokémon!"

"That is indeed a method; if we can find Groudon and ask it to assist us, our chances of defeating Team Rocket will increase greatly."

Leon approved very much: using a Legend to deal with a Legend.

"Champion Steven, I recall that in the legends of the Hoenn region, the strength of Groudon and Groudon is evenly matched, right?" Cynthia looked at Steven.

"I'm ashamed; I don't know much about this legend, but I do recall it being exactly so." Gao Ang looked somewhat troubled.

"But in the ancient legend, Groudon and Kyogre are opposing Pokémon; once they meet, they will launch a fierce battle."

Gao Ang hesitated, fearing he might be unable to control the consequences.

"Isn't that perfect?" Nemona asked, puzzled.

In that case, perhaps they wouldn't even need to ask Groudon for help; perhaps they just needed to report Kyogre's current location, and Groudon would run over to fight Kyogre on its own?

"As long as Groudon holds Kyogre off, we can take the opportunity to defeat Mamon."

That was exactly what Nemona thought.

"The idea is good, but the problem lies in..." Sakaki looked at Gao Ang: "Champion Gao Ang, what you worry about is that the situation cannot be controlled, right?"

"That's right. In the legend, once Groudon and Kyogre awaken and fight, the environment will be severely affected, and... everyone has seen the battle in Lumiose City with their own eyes."

Gao Ang spoke with deep concern.

"That is indeed a problem." Diantha pondered; the destructive power of the legends was truly too terrible.

"But if we don't find Groudon, our chance of defeating Mamon is truly too small." Nemona frowned, her small face dry as she spoke.

To put it another way, was the odds of victory versus defeat 9 to 1?

Primal Kyogre, though not as powerful as that black Rayquaza, was still a despairing existence for ordinary people.

Even for them, Champions standing at the pinnacle of humanity, the existence of Primal Kyogre was simply too strong.

Cynthia pressed her hand on Nemona's shoulder and shook her head, signaling her to say no more.

Gao Ang's brows were tightly furrowed, his fingers unconsciously tapping the table repeatedly; he was thinking, wondering whether to use this plan.

Cynthia and the others remained silent; their thoughts differed, but this place was Hoenn, and Gao Ang was the Hoenn Champion.

Groudon's appearance and the war with Kyogre would cause consequences affecting Hoenn; this was no joke.

Once the situation got out of control, it would be the land and people of the Hoenn region that suffered; they could not guide Gao Ang's thoughts, but had to let him make the decision himself.

Wallace also remained silent, waiting for Gao Ang to make a decision; no matter what Gao Ang chose, he would support him unconditionally.

After a long while, Gao Ang took a deep breath, and a somewhat hoarse, low voice sounded.

"I will send people to find Groudon!"

Gao Ang had made his decision.

"If you hesitate to cut, you will suffer chaos; if you look back and forth, you cannot drive out Team Rocket! The top priority now is to drive Team Rocket out of Hoenn!"

Gao Ang spoke in a deep voice; perhaps Groudon's awakening and war with Kyogre would have a significant impact, but Gao Ang was already mentally prepared.

Lumiose City was already destroyed; at worst, it would just be another disaster like Lumiose City.

But as long as they could seize the opportunity to defeat Team Rocket in Hoenn, it would be worth it!

"No wonder you are Champion Gao Ang!" Diantha spoke up to praise him; he thought the same.

Compared to letting such a powerful evil organization take deep root on this land bit by bit, it was better to take a gamble now.

"Since that is the case, finding Groudon now is the most important thing." Cynthia did not oppose.

"Yes, previously a trainer named May caught a Team Magma executive; it is said she escaped because she did not want to join Team Rocket."

Gao Ang spoke calmly.

"I will go ask personally; Team Magma has always been pursuing Groudon, so perhaps she knows Groudon's slumbering place."

"It is feasible, and Champion Gao Ang, if someone among us can gain Groudon's approval, then the situation getting out of control that you worry about will no longer exist."

Sakaki spoke to Gao Ang.

Hearing this, Gao Ang was stunned, then his expression brightened slightly; that's right!

If someone among them could be chosen by Groudon to become a partner, wouldn't that mean there was no need to worry?

Moreover, this would mean that the Pokémon League side truly had a legendary trainer equal to Mamon! In the future, they wouldn't need to worry too much about Mamon's existence.

You say Steven is also a trainer of legendary Pokémon? Those who know, know.

"I will go ask that Team Magma executive right now!"

Thinking of this, Gao Ang suddenly felt much better! Full of motivation!

"Hey! Senior Gao Ang, I'll go with you!"

Nemona was very enthusiastic; she had never interrogated a prisoner before; this was her first time!

"Fine." Gao Ang did not refuse and immediately took Nemona and the other two to leave the private room.

Seeing this scene, Sakaki chuckled lightly, his expression calm, and quietly sent a message to his beloved son.

'Mamon, the Hoenn League wants to awaken Groudon to fight you.'

Hmm, isn't this how an inside man is used?

Gao Ang and the others never expected that a 'traitor' had appeared on their side.

Ps: Sorry everyone, I've been too busy these past few days (╥_╥)

Currently, I owe everyone five bonus chapters; I remember, and I will make them up when I have time.

Recently, I've been going out every day during the day for various errands and shopping, and I also have to entertain relatives who came from afar to prepare for my wedding.

Writing the basic ten thousand words every day is my limit; I really don't have time to write more.

I will make them up for everyone when I have free time; I absolutely will not delay.
