In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

Lugia sank directly into the sea, swimming towards the direction of Lugia and her baby.

It couldn't care less about this; helping either side would only cause trouble, so it was better to remain neutral.

Anyway, Mew is here, so even if Ho-Oh is no match for Primal Groudon, it's fine.

Meanwhile, on Bakura's side...

"Groudon, use Flamethrower!" Bakura shouted to Primal Groudon.

The seven-colored holy fire surged forth, and under the blazing sun of the Land of the End, the power of the fire-type move reached a new level!

"roar~"

Primal Groudon roared deafeningly, its red glow growing even brighter, as dense fire-type energy accumulated in its mouth.

The next moment, several enormous, scorching fireballs rushed toward the Holy Flame.

Fire Breath! One of the most powerful fire-type normal moves!

The fire-breathing and the holy flames collided heavily, and the scorching flames continued to sweep and spread.

Large amounts of white vapor kept rising from the sea surface due to the extremely high temperature, which caused the seawater to evaporate!

boom!

Fire energy is inherently extremely volatile; the flames and holy fire were locked in a stalemate, exploding violently.

Countless sparks exploded in all directions like shooting stars.

"Groudon, Thunderbolt Sweep!"

Bakura threw out Latios's Poké Ball, and Bakura and Campfire rode on Latios and took off. Bakura responded to Latios's commands through his mental connection with Primal Groudon.

The battle between Primal Groudon and Ho-Oh, especially since both are among the supreme Fire-type Pokémon, and their flames are inherently extremely violent, naturally meant they couldn't get too close.

Primal Groudon squinted at what lay ahead, its surroundings completely obscured by the sparks and rising steam.

crackling sounds~

A crackling sound of electricity rang out from the original Groudon's entire body, and countless beams of electricity shot towards the location of Ho-Oh that it remembered.

"Chirp~"

The sharp cry of the Phoenix King came from above.

"Up there! Groudon, Thunder!"

Bakura glanced at the sky directly above Primal Groudon and mentally shouted at Primal Groudon.

At this moment, Ho-Oh is falling rapidly toward Primal Groudon, and blue energy surrounds its entire body, transforming it into a divine bird.

Divine Bird Strikes!

The electricity on Primal Groudon flickered even more frequently, and a huge pillar of lightning rose straight up.

Seeing the approaching thunder, Phoenix King had no intention of retreating or changing direction. Using the momentum of its rapid descent, it fell directly into the thunder!

The thunder and the divine bird struck together violently!

"It seems I underestimated Ho-Oh."

Bakura frowned slightly as he watched Ho-Oh advance, which was constantly suppressing the thunder.

Primal Groudon is definitely stronger than Ho-Oh.

In gaming terms, in terms of burst damage, strength, special attack, defense, special defense, and health, except for speed, Primal Groudon surpasses Ho-Oh in every aspect.

But reality is not a game, and real-life battles are not just about looking at stats.

Groudon can't fly and isn't as fast as Ho-Oh, so in battle, it can only maintain a defensive and counter-attacking stance.

Of course, you can take the initiative to attack, but it's completely meaningless if you can't hit the target. No matter how strong you are, if you can't even touch the opponent, how can you cause any damage?

Ho-Oh, with its aerial advantage, can flexibly choose the right time to attack.

For example, right now, Ho-Oh used Ape Slam and, by utilizing the powerful potential energy from falling from a great height, forcibly broke through the original Groudon's Thunder!

"But a disadvantage in hard power cannot be made up for by a few tricks!"

"Groudon, prepare Thunder Punch."

Bakura's mind raced, and he mentally shouted at Primal Groudon.

The divine bird swooped down with tremendous force, and Thunder's attack gradually weakened, eventually being torn apart.

boom!

Ho-Oh struck Primal Groudon hard on the head!

The ground beneath Groudon's feet shattered inch by inch!

A shockwave suddenly spread outwards, causing the seawater near Primal Groudon to recede continuously.

Primal Groudon showed a pained expression, despite being weakened by the thunder.

But this attack from the divine bird was far too powerful.

But in the next instant, a hint of ferocity flashed in Primal Groudon's eyes. Enduring the pain, it unleashed a powerful Thunder Punch at Ho-Oh, whose old power had not yet dissipated and whose new power had not yet been generated.

Ho-Oh clearly didn't expect that Primal Groudon, whose hands had been hanging down, would actually use Thunder Punch, or rather, it didn't expect that Primal Groudon, which it had hit, could retaliate so quickly!

The Thunder Punch struck Ho-Oh's head directly. The massive force and the arc of electricity caused Ho-Oh, which was sent flying, to close its eyes tightly and let out a painful groan.

"...The Sword of the Cliff!"

Take advantage of your weakness to kill you!

Bakura always adhered to this principle during battle, and shouted it to Primal Groudon without hesitation.

If Ho-Oh is flying in the air, the Cliff Sword will have a hard time hitting Ho-Oh, which can move at any time.

But things are different now!

Primal Groudon roared, its body flashing with deep red light, and then slammed its fist heavily into the ground.

(Zhao Nuo Zhao) The ground instantly cracked open with terrifying magma fissures, and magma blades rose up from the ground one after another, attacking the Phoenix King.

"Chirp~"

Phoenix King struggled to open its eyes, flapped its wings heavily, and forcibly stabilized its body, attempting to take flight.

At the same time, a massive amount of seven-colored holy fire rushed toward Primal Groudon.

And it was at this moment that the largest magma blade suddenly pierced straight out from under Phoenix King's body!

Without giving Ho-Oh a chance to dodge, the massive cliff sword struck Ho-Oh's abdomen with lightning speed!

"Chirp!"

Phoenix King let out a mournful cry like a cuckoo weeping blood; this attack was far more powerful than Thunder Fist!

Like a kite with a broken string, Phoenix King fell helplessly toward the ground.

Ho-Oh crashed heavily to the ground, a searing pain shooting through its abdomen, rendering it unable to fly. The Holy Fire struck the Primal Groudon, who was unable to retaliate in time, but the hastily used Holy Fire did little damage to Primal Groudon.

"Groudor, earthquake!"

Ho-Oh landed, and Bakura immediately ordered Primal Groudon to continue the attack!

Ho-Oh possesses extremely powerful life energy, and its special ability is to revive the dead, which is attributed to its life energy.

Life energy is different from physical strength, but it makes Ho-Oh extremely durable! In other words, Ho-Oh is an extremely resilient punching bag!

When an attack lands on it, the injuries will be healed by the life energy, which is equivalent to having a built-in healing buff!

It is imperative to press the advantage.

Primal Groudon roared deafeningly, raised one foot, and then slammed it down heavily.

The entire island began to tremble violently, and an invisible shockwave rippled outwards.

Phoenix King felt the shock and tried very hard to flap its wings.

If you were hit by this earthquake, it would be no joke.

Finally, thanks to Ho-Oh's efforts, it managed to avoid the direct impact of the earthquake by 800 seconds.

But before Phoenix King could rejoice, it was met with countless sharp rocks!

Primal Groudon's Rock Blade Attack!

The rock blades struck Ho-Oh, which had no chance of avoiding them, without any surprise. Ho-Oh is four times weak to rock!

The rock blades can inflict considerable damage on Ho-Oh!

"What a despicable human being!"

The Phoenix King, which had just taken off slightly, fell to the ground again. Its once glossy and magnificent feathers were now somewhat dull and lackluster.

It understood perfectly well that Bakura's use of Earthquake on Groudon was just bait, a preparation for this Rock Blade!

Ho-Oh lay on the ground, panting. It had been hit repeatedly by Primal Groudon, and its injuries were quite severe.

"Is there any need to continue fighting? Ho-Oh, the outcome is quite obvious."

Let Latios land, Bakura stepped on the somewhat messy ground, looked at Ho-Oh and spoke.

He didn't intend to completely antagonize Phoenix King; he displayed his strength but stopped short of causing a major conflict.

"Hmph! As expected of the overlord of the land, you win."

Ho-Oh's telepathic snort rang out.

Although Ho-Oh is very stubborn, a victory is a victory, and a defeat is a defeat; it's not so bad that it can't accept defeat.

"Personally, I still have great respect for you, Phoenix King. However, you're asking me to release the three sacred beasts that I finally managed to subdue. That's a bit too domineering."

"You're right, aren't you?"

Bakura smiled and didn't care. After being beaten up, it would be really strange if Ho-Oh spoke to him in a nice and calm manner.
