Rumble!!
The rock sculpture in front of them trembled from side to side, and this quickly turned into a violent vibration.
BOOM!!
Finally, the entire giant rock exploded, sending countless pieces of rubble flying in all directions.
"Magneton, use Protect!!"
Wattson's two Magneton each raised a green light barrier, securely protecting everyone behind them.
When the smoke and rubble settled, the scene before them left everyone stunned.
The original five-to-six-meter-tall rock statue had completely shattered. Amidst the pile of rubble, a strange entity had appeared.
It was about 1.2 meters tall, with a yellowish-green crystalline body, like a yellow, pillar-shaped crystal.
It had no facial features or expression, but its head area was carved with orange-yellow Dot Matrix Markings. On the sides and bottom of the crystal pillar were inlaid stacked metal rings, seemingly some kind of special device.
"..."
At this moment, this Pokémon stood erect before them. It was just the main trunk of a crystal pillar, with no lower limbs or arms, and showed no signs of life.
"Is this a Pokémon...?"
Ash scratched his head and quickly took out his Pokédex. So, there was something like this inside that giant rock statue?
"Dee-dee. This Pokémon is not registered."
The usually knowledgeable Pokédex was as clueless as an ordinary person this time.
Besides, it looked more like a pillar-shaped crystal than a typical Pokémon.
Just as everyone was completely bewildered, Wattson revealed a look of utter shock, murmuring with uncertainty:
"Regi... Regieleki?"
Ash and the other two: "?"
It's really a Pokémon?
Wattson took several deep breaths to calm himself, his mind racing back to the countless ancient documents he had consulted while searching for this mythical city back when he was still working for Great Mauville Enterprise.
Among them, there had been a brief record of the latter.
In the Hoenn Region, the legend of the three Legendary Titans has been passed down since ancient times. The legend says they were sealed away by the ancients because of their immense power.
But according to Wattson's research, it wasn't actually three Legendary Titans.
It was five Legendary Titans!
However, since records of the five Legendary Titans were far scarcer than those of the three, Wattson hadn't paid them much mind, dismissing them as some kind of historical error.
But among them was an Electric-type titan, and because it shared the same type he specialized in, Wattson had specifically memorized its long name.
"Regieleki?"
Ash repeated the name, looking the crystal pillar up and down.
It doesn't look like it has any signs of life at all...
"It's just..."
Looking at its appearance, Wattson frowned again.
According to the descriptions in the ancient book, unlike the other staid titans, Regieleki had a lively disposition.
Furthermore, it was supposed to have flexible limbs and be able to hop and jump around on the ground...
"What's this?"
Wattson's gaze shifted to the metal rings on Regieleki's sides.
With his many years of experience as an electrician, if he wasn't mistaken, those should be some kind of resistance device.
The resistance devices on the sides and bottom were also roughly where its limbs should connect...
"So Regieleki's limbs have been restrained by this device?"
Realizing this, Wattson acted decisively, pointing a finger.
"Magneton, use Discharge!"
Since it's restrained, we just need to blast it with more electricity to break through.
Besides, for a dormant Pokémon like this Regieleki, the obvious activation source was electrical energy.
Zzzzzzt!!
The Magneton exerted its power, unleashing lightning that struck Regieleki's body.
The blue lightning didn't disperse. Instead, like water into a sponge, it was instantly and completely absorbed by Regieleki's crystalline body.
"Beep-beep...!"
This caused the Regieleki to emit a series of mysterious telegraph-like sounds, and the Dot Matrix Markings on its face began to flash intermittently.
Yellow electric current began to appear from the resistance devices on the sides of the crystal pillar...
Zzzshoo!
But in less than a moment, as if extinguished by water, the newly emerged electric current vanished, and Regieleki's head fell silent again.
"Not enough power?"
Wattson frowned to himself. Since it had started to work, it proved this method was viable.
"Not enough power? Then leave it to me!"
At that moment, Ash strode forward.
He didn't know what was going on, but he understood "not enough power."
"Pika!"
Pikachu leaped in front of Regieleki, its body crackling with stored electricity. It had already mostly recovered from the earlier battle with Manectric.
"In that case, use Thunder, full power!!"
Ash commanded with a sweep of his arm.
ZZZ-BOOM!!
As he spoke, a thick bolt of golden lightning erupted, striking the crystal pillar squarely.
"BEEP BEEP!!"
This time, Regieleki once again emitted rapid telegraph-like sounds. The Dot Matrix Markings flashed erratically, and faint electric current began to emanate from the metal rings on its sides, continuously spreading and extending outward.
"That's it, keep it up!!"
Seeing the electric attack was effective, Ash shouted from behind. Pikachu gritted its teeth and cranked its power to the max.
ZZZ-BOOM BOOM!!
A massive pillar of lightning finally exploded violently on Regieleki's body, forcing everyone nearby to cover their faces from the force of the blast.
And when they turned their heads back...
The crystal pillar, which had previously been like an inanimate object, was now showing new signs of life.
Teal-colored lightning burst forth from the metal rings on its sides, continuously sparking and shining, resembling two arms of electricity without hands.
The metal rings below similarly shot out bolts of energy, forming two short, small lower limbs made of electricity, increasing its height considerably.
Its electric lower limbs were exceptionally springy, acting like loaded springs the moment they touched the ground.
Duang~duang~!
Regieleki's entire body bounced around nimbly from side to side, just like a flea.
"Beep-beep~!"
The Dot Matrix Pattern on its face flashed, as if it were trying to say something.
"It's really been completely revived?!"
Wattson's eyes were wide with astonishment. He never expected the legendary Electric-type titan to actually appear before him.
But why would such an entity be in this underground city?
And why was it embedded within a massive rock?
K-chak!! K-chak!!
But before Wattson could ponder any further, several crisp sounds suddenly echoed around them.
It was like the sound of electric switches being flipped.
In the next instant, every corner and building in the entire New Mauville underground city lit up with a brilliant, dazzling light!
The heavy, oppressive, deathly stillness in the air vanished in that instant, and everyone let out a collective sigh of relief.
With Regieleki's awakening, the city of New Mauville had also officially become operational!
