Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

Zhu Lan deliberately spoke in a light tone, seemingly trying to ease the current somber atmosphere.

After saying that, he placed Karuni's hand on his waist and abdomen, and then gently patted Garchomp.

"roar~"

Garchomp immediately launched itself like a jet plane.

Head towards the direction where Yveltal awakens.

"Charizard, let's hurry up and set off!"

"Organize Yveltal to approach Miare City!"

Dr. Blatano threw out a Baby Ball and quickly caught up with Cynthia and Karen.

"Sigh!" Ge Jihua sighed heavily.

As a superhuman with exceptionally developed senses, Gejihua doesn't have it as easy as Zhulan.

Because in her perception, facing Yveltal, the god of destruction, she felt an extreme sense of danger.

It even made her feel that she might die!

"Director Haoyan, I don't know what happened on your end."

"But please, come and help us quickly..."

... ...

Chapter 653 Life and Death, Ultimately Out of Balance

When Karune and Cynthia arrived at the north side of Miare City, they saw Yveltal in person.

They were all terrified by what they saw!

The land is barren, except for the gray that represents decay.

A bewitching dark red hue could still be seen in the air!

It was an extremely eerie and terrifying dark red, like dried blood spreading around like a plague.

Darkness, oppression, and evil—these three indescribable atmospheres oppressed everyone present.

Meanwhile, the black and red Yveltal flew erratically through the air.

"Wow!!!"

Yveltal's shrill cry was so piercing that it made one instinctively cover their eyes.

A terrifying aura of destruction permeated the air, filled with an intense sense of malice and oppression.

Without warning, Yveltal emitted a dark red beam of light.

It attacked the surrounding land in a disorderly manner, which had already lost its vitality.

It seemed to be an outburst of inner turmoil.

A flicker of fear crossed Karuni's eyes: "Legend has it that anyone struck by Yveltal's Deathwing will be turned into a decaying stone statue!"

Dr. Blatano swallowed hard and said, "That's right, that's the most terrifying thing about the God of Destruction!"

Just as the two were talking, Yveltal, who was flying erratically in the air, spotted Karuni and the others in the distance.

A chill rose from the soles of their feet, causing Karuni and the others present to look up in horror.

Suddenly, Iveal's berserk eyes came into view.

Right now, they're watching them!

"Wow!!!"

With another high-pitched scream, Yveltal spread its enormous red and black wings, and a strange, scarlet energy emanated from its body.

Yveltal used his signature skill.

Deathwing, capable of taking lives!

Silence, deathly stillness!

A dark red beam of light streaked through the air and hurtled towards Karuni and the others!

"Come on!"

Cynthia shouted and immediately grabbed Karune, hoisting her onto Garchomp's back, and they fled at top speed.

Professor Blatano and Gergiwer quickly directed their respective flying Pokémon to escape.

They dared not confront Yveltal, the eerie, life-snatching Deathwing.

Fortunately, Yveltal was some distance away from them, and they managed to escape the attack range before it arrived.

Even after escaping the attack range, Karuni and the others' situation did not improve.

Because of Yveltal's unique aura of decay, no Pokémon can survive around him when he awakens.

Since Yveltal awoke, the only living beings he has encountered are Karuni and others.

How could Yveltal, who loves to absorb life, let them go so easily?

"Wow!!!"

With a sharp whistle, it immediately swooped down towards them.

As he pursued, Yveltal unleashed his unique dark aura, a dark aura that blotted out the sun.

A dark aura seemed to lock onto Karuni and the others who were constantly trying to escape.

Cynthia, who was directing Garchomp to flee, didn't even need to turn around to feel Deathwing, carrying an aura of decay, about to strike again.

Just then, the soft cry of a deer rang out.

With that gentle deer call, a gap was torn open in the dark aura that had been blocking out the sunlight.

Sunlight seeped out from this opening, shining upon the earth once more.

The lifeless earth has regained a little bit of life.

A blue-black Pokémon resembling a deer emerged from the withered trees.

This Pokémon has eight horns protruding from its head like tree branches, with two branches at the end of each horn.

Each corner is adorned with four different colored protrusions, with the colors reversed on the left and right sides.

The pupils are shaped like the letter X, and the body also appears X-shaped when viewed from the front.

As soon as this Pokémon appeared, Cynthia and the others clearly felt that the dark aura was no longer targeting them.

You can stop fleeing now.

"Xerneas!!!"

"It's Xerneas, the embodiment of life!!!" Karune exclaimed in surprise as she looked at Xerneas in the distance.

Xerneas and Yveltal represent life and death, respectively.

They are in a state of opposition to each other.

The two of them are a bit like a fathead fish and a flyless fish.

However, Xerneas was mild-mannered, not warlike, and disliked conflict.

"With Xerneas's help, we should be able to breathe a sigh of relief..." Dr. Blatano wiped the cold sweat from his brow as he desperately fled.

... ...

Xernias's appearance did not bring any relief to Georgie.

This only made her expression more serious.

As a superpowered individual, Gegehua had long sensed Yveltal's difference.

He sighed silently, "The balance between life and death has ultimately been broken..."

... ...

Zhu Lan silently observed Ge Jihua's expression and heard her muttering to herself.

They knew things weren't as simple as Karuni and Dr. Blatano thought.

"Haoyan, where are you now...?"

... ...

Chapter 654 Xerneas let out a mournful cry.

Far away, as Xerneas and Yveltal were about to clash, Vladari, along with many of Team Flare's men, watched the battlefield using holographic projection technology.

Among Team Flare, there was one particularly special figure.

Pachira, the Fire Elite Four member of the Kalos region.

Pachira, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, is also a member of Team Flare!

"Reporting to the leader, this is a real-time monitoring of the holographic projection near the research institute. Please take a look."

Bara, the green-haired member of Team Flare, respectfully handed over a communicator with both hands.

The video feed on the communicator showed Haoyan's enormous Bangira eating the metal sheeting surrounding the research institute.

Vladali frowned, somewhat puzzled: "Why is Haoyan still staying at the research institute?"

"Could this be some kind of conspiracy?"

The green-haired Bara spoke up, "Although we don't know what Haoyan is doing, at least in the current situation, it's best if he doesn't bother us..."

"Um…"

Vladali tossed the communicator to Bara and turned to look at Yveltal, who was confronting Xerneas in the center of the battlefield.

"Let's start the fight!"

"The more thoroughly I fight, the better, so that my ideals can be perfectly realized!"

Vladali licked his lips, which were a little dry from excitement.
