After Kyogre and Groudon swallowed the two Orbs, changes began to appear in both Pokémon, starting from their eyes.
The patterns on their bodies turned golden yellow, and their bodies also underwent some subtle changes.
At the same time, the symbols representing the two Pokémon also began to appear.
Kyogre's "α" character and Groudon's "Ω" symbol both manifested.
If people previously didn't know why Team Magma and Team Aqua chose these two characters as their team emblems, those who witnessed this scene now probably understood.
It was a pity, though, that the members of Team Magma and Team Aqua could no longer witness this scene.
However, those who were watching the live television broadcast at this moment all witnessed it.
The two Pokémon, who had initially been somewhat dazed, recovered at an astonishing speed after encountering each other.
And they simultaneously completed the process of reverting to their Primal forms.
At this moment, Adams and Drake, standing on the plane, had somewhat solemn expressions.
Both of them felt that Kyogre and Groudon's body energy was rising in a straight line; Adams would probably be unable to suppress Groudon now.
"Aoki, I hope we can follow your plan now, otherwise, if Kyogre and Groudon simultaneously turn to attack the Hoenn region, I estimate the Hoenn region will truly be in danger," Adams said with a grave expression.
Aoki's face was also not looking good; he felt a strong sense of threat from both Kyogre and Groudon.
This was the deterrent force that a legendary first-tier deity should possess; perhaps the upper limits of both Pokémon had already broken through the first-tier deity level.
These were Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon!
However, Aoki still said, "Kyogre and Groudon are like fire and water; if they could coexist peacefully, they wouldn't have fallen into slumber."
Aoki was very confident about this point: when Kyogre and Groudon met, they were bound to fight.
However, Aoki saw more than Adams and Drake: Kyogre had absorbed an additional special energy crystal compared to Groudon. From Groudon's actions towards Maxie just now, it was clear that Groudon was very angry, indicating that the energy crystal was very important to him.
It might be the key to who would win the battle against Kyogre.
But now Kyogre had it, and Groudon didn't. The originally balanced situation had now skewed. Would it eventually lead to Primal Kyogre defeating Primal Groudon?
And because Groudon fought back desperately, the Alliance might end up taking advantage, especially since Adams and Drake's strengths were not weak, and Adams even had a very precious Master Ball!
This possibility was not out of the question.
"The real battle is about to begin!"
Aoki's thoughts were interrupted by Drake's words.
Because the battle between Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon below had truly begun!
Kyogre was still the first to attack, as it held a certain advantage.
It slammed its tail onto the sea surface, flapping its two massive fins, and actually leaped into the air, able to control its body freely.
Kyogre could fly!
This was not very friendly to Groudon.
Then, Primal Kyogre's body shimmered with countless bluish-white, exceptionally dazzling light clusters. These clusters then seemed to transform into sharp blades, shooting directly towards Groudon!
Origin Pulse!
Primal Kyogre immediately used its ultimate move, Kyogre's signature move.
Boom!!! Boom — Boom —
Explosions sounded one after another, and all the Origin Pulses slammed onto Groudon's body.
Just as Kyogre was about to feel pleased, it saw that Groudon, after the explosions, had not sustained much damage. Its skin, which resembled molten lava, was merely emitting white smoke.
It turned out that just as Kyogre's Origin Pulse was about to strike Groudon, Groudon swung its right hand, raising a large amount of lava, causing the Origin Pulse to explode prematurely before reaching its body.
Roar!!!!
Groudon was not to be outdone. Before the white mist had completely dissipated, it spread its arms, and the yellow stripes on its body flashed intensely.
Thump!! Thump!! Thump!! Thump!!...
It was as if a giant had appeared, stepping on the sea surface. With each step, a massive stone pillar, carrying rolling lava, suddenly shot out from the sea.
Its moving speed became faster and faster. After seven or eight stone pillars appeared, they instantly arrived beneath Kyogre.
Aoki was very familiar with this skill; it was precisely Precipice Blades!
The lava carried by the stone pillar that appeared beneath Kyogre was even hotter, the stone pillar was taller and larger, and it shot up the fastest.
Boom!!!
With a huge explosion, Groudon's Precipice Blades firmly struck Kyogre's body.
At the same time, the strong winds generated by the explosion blew all the planes, helicopters, and trainers flying in mid-air askew. Many trainers even fell from the backs of their Pokémon and plunged into the sea.
The military helicopter where Aoki and the two others stood was now shaking violently, forcing the three of them to grip the handles on the plane tightly.
As the direct recipient of this attack, Kyogre was blasted directly from mid-air into the sea. The moment it touched the seawater, a large amount of steam rose, indicating how incredibly hot Groudon's Precipice Blades were.
Having been attacked, Kyogre, who had been somewhat smug, instantly became enraged!
But just as it surfaced from the seabed, it was greeted by huge, high-temperature lava fireballs spat out from Groudon's mouth.
Kyogre narrowed its eyes.
You think I'm easy to bully, and you're getting addicted to it, aren't you?
The energy on its body surged. With a slight opening of its mouth, the patterns on its body flickered on and off, and a blue-white energy shield appeared around it. When Groudon's lava fireballs struck this energy shield, they failed to break through.
Hiss — Roar!!!
Kyogre roared, and the energy shield around its body suddenly expanded, its diameter instantly increasing, enveloping Groudon in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the entire area covered by the energy shield turned into an icy ocean.
A thick layer of ice reappeared. Except for a circle around Kyogre that remained in a liquid state, everything else had solidified.
The turbulent waves that had just been raging now transformed into lifelike ice sculptures.
Most importantly, Primal Groudon itself had directly turned into a giant block of ice.
People watched this scene in shock.
However, very quickly, the ice encasing Groudon began to tremble and emit a "sizzle sizzle" sound.
This was the sound of ice suddenly encountering high temperatures.
Crack crack crack —
The ice block exploded violently, and Groudon's red and yellow shell now looked like molten lava.
