"Is that it?"
Seeing both teams leave the Weather Institute after just a short while, Ash couldn't help but find it a pity.
And these two teams were just ridiculous.
Last time on Mt. Chimney, Team Aqua, who were protecting the volcano, could be considered their 'allies'.
This time, in the incident of luring out Groudon, Team Magma became their 'allies'.
Besides, what were these two organizations even doing at the Weather Institute?
Did they just come in to act all arrogant and then leave for no reason?
The Weather Institute's Director, however, let out a sigh of relief and sat back down in his seat.
"I suspect it's about the Red Orb and the Blue Orb."
He muttered his speculation slowly.
"The Blue Orb?"
Hearing a new term, the group repeated it out of curiosity.
"Yes. Just like Groudon's Red Orb, Kyogre naturally has a Blue Orb as well."
The Director nodded, pulling up an image on his phone's screen. On it was a simple, ancient-looking blue orb.
"According to legend, both of these Orbs have an inseparable connection to the two Ancient Deities, and might even possess the terrifying ability to control them!"
The Director explained with a serious expression.
And Team Magma and Team Aqua, who revere Groudon and Kyogre as a matter of faith, are bound to be desperate to possess the two Orbs.
"I suppose they were both after our Weather Institute's research data on the two Orbs."
But upon seeing the other party was also present, they both chose to give up. With neither side getting it, the playing field remained level.
"Moreover..."
The Director's expression turned grim, a bad feeling nagging at the back of his mind.
He had a feeling they didn't give up on the research data just because the other was there... Perhaps they already had information on the location of the *real* Orbs.
In that case, information about the *fake* Orbs would be infinitely less important to them.
"Team Magma and Team Aqua..."
Ash stroked his chin, watching Pikachu flying by riding on Castform's head, but a similar bad feeling stirred in his heart.
In the end, it's not going to be Team Magma and Team Aqua summoning and controlling Groudon and Kyogre, respectively, to wage a war between the land and the sea, is it?!
Back in the Orange Islands, the brief clash between Lugia and Groudon had already left him utterly astounded.
Fortunately, the misunderstanding was quickly cleared up. Groudon recognized that the Sea God before it wasn't the fat-headed fish from its memories, so it stood down, preventing any incalculable disaster.
But if an evenly matched Groudon and Kyogre were to have an all-out war on this continent...
*Hiss*...
Ash couldn't help but shudder. That image was a bit too violent.
"No matter what, we can only wait and see the results of Gary's actions."
The Director took a deep breath and stood up again.
Hopefully, Groudon will just return to the Hoenn Region and go back to sleep in the Earth's Core Magma... It really needs to stop wandering around!
After bidding farewell to the Weather Institute, Ash and his two companions continued on their way.
The path ahead was a wide-open plain, flanked on both sides by dense forests with extremely high vegetation coverage.
In the distance, they could already see a town to the northeast, at the edge of the forest.
"Treecko, use Bullet Seed!!"
Just then, however, Ash's group suddenly heard the sound of a Trainer commanding a battle.
They drew closer to look and saw a green-haired youth battling a youth dressed as a ninja.
The Pokémon in the battle were a Treecko, familiar to Ash, and a black and gold flying cicada.
"Ninjask, use Agility!"
The ninja boy commanded.
*Swish! Swish!*
The dense barrage of Bullet Seed shot forward, but the Ninjask's speed was even greater. Its form flickered repeatedly in mid-air, as if it were using Teleport.
Its ghostly movements allowed it to completely evade the Bullet Seed.
"Now, use Fury Cutter!!"
As he spoke, Ninjask's scythes began to glow with a greenish light, like sharp scimitars.
*Swish!*
In an instant, it was behind the Treecko, and a Fury Cutter slashed across its back!
It's super effective!!
"*Kec!*"
This Treecko, which didn't seem to be very high-level, rolled wretchedly on the ground and tried to attack the target behind it.
*Whoosh!*
But in the next moment, the Ninjask had already moved into a tricky blind spot.
Its blades swung out, and Fury Cutter successfully slashed Treecko's back once again!
It's super effective!!
The Treecko couldn't react at all. All it could see was a black shadow darting back and forth before its body was heavily struck.
"Damn it... what kind of move is that?!"
The green-haired youth was sweating profusely with anxiety. He even subconsciously took his eyes off the battlefield to look at a notebook in his hand, as if trying to find a way to counter the attack.
But Fury Cutter is a move whose power continuously increases with each consecutive hit.
By the time the third Fury Cutter hit, the Treecko was sent flying.
"*Kec...*"
When it landed, it was already unable to battle.
Seeing this, the ninja boy rubbed his nose, looking rather smug.
"Heh heh, now you've seen how formidable my Ninjask is~!"
The green-haired youth, however, rushed forward in a panic to check on his Treecko's injuries.
"Such a pure newcomer..."
"Too pure..."
Ash and his group, who had watched the entire battle, couldn't help but shake their heads.
Putting aside everything else, a Trainer taking their eyes off the battle is the biggest taboo!
Judging by that Treecko's physique, it must have either just hatched from an egg or just been received as a starter Pokémon.
"Hey! The expressions on you three's faces look like you're not impressed with my Ninjask, huh?"
Seeing the group shaking their heads with disappointed looks, the ninja boy immediately shouted:
"Want to try battling me?"
"Oh, a battle~!"
Seeing this, Ash's eyes lit up. He immediately walked up and took the spot where the green-haired youth had been standing.
He flipped a Poké Ball in his hand, and the cool figure of a Grovyle appeared before him.
"*Vyle...!*"
The moment it appeared, it casually picked up a twig to hold in its mouth, crossed its arms, and didn't even deign to look directly at the Ninjask before it.
"Is that... a Grovyle?!"
"*Kec?!*"
Nearby, the defeated green-haired youth and his Treecko stared at Ash and Grovyle in astonishment.
But the ninja boy was already enraged by the arrogant Grovyle.
"Ninjask, use Agility!!"
In the next moment, Ninjask's form once again began to flash and shift in the air, its trajectory completely impossible to follow.
"And then, Fury Cutter!!"
The ninja boy swiped with his thumb; this was clearly his old combo attack.
Seeing the Ninjask dash forward with tricky movements, its bladed arms gleaming with a dangerous light...
"Grovyle, use Detect!"
Ash responded unhurriedly.
"*Vyle!*"
Grovyle understood, and a mysterious green light flickered in its eyes.
What followed was an incredibly bizarre set of movements. With a few shifts and dodges, it completely evaded Ninjask's several tricky Fury Cutters.
