In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

Lillie's expression turned strange when she heard Rika's words. Rika could fight Daigo, so she was considered a weak woman?

I'm sorry, Lillie also longs to be such a vulnerable woman.

"And, I really didn't expect Suicune to be willing to help you. Sigh~ What a miscalculation~"

Pear Blossom ignored the expressions of the others, glanced at the Water Lord standing in front of the four girls guarding the campfire, and helplessly rubbed her forehead, saying with a headache.

Originally, she thought that if she fell out with Daigo, she would have Kazuki take the four campfire girls hostage, so that Daigo would be hesitant to act against them.

Although this method is somewhat despicable, Pear Blossom doesn't care about that. As long as she can achieve her goal, she doesn't mind bearing a reputation for being ruthless and cunning.

Unfortunately, just as Kazuki was about to make a move, he was stopped by Suicune, who had been observing him.

It didn't do anything else; it was clearly trying to protect the four people at the campfire. As long as Ichigo didn't get close, Suicune wouldn't attack.

This really put Rika in a difficult position, and she couldn't understand why Suikun would protect the campfire girls.

While the three legendary beasts are said to help humans in distress, in this situation, shouldn't Suicune prioritize its own safety first?

The others didn't understand, but Campfire could roughly understand, since they hadn't gotten along very well at first.

However, this first-generation Suicune eventually changed its attitude towards Bakura quite a bit, and now it naturally wouldn't just stand by and watch its 'acquaintance' Campfire fall into danger.

"Still want to resist? You're no match for me."

Daigo looked at the Poké Ball that Rika had thrown; it was an Umbreon, clearly indicating that Rika intended to continue the battle.

“I know that, of course, but…”

Rika shrugged indifferently. With both of her main fighters defeated by Daigo, Rika naturally understood that she was no match for Daigo.

However, she was just stalling for time, because Kazuki had already informed everyone about this beforehand!

But before she could finish speaking, Pear Blossom keenly sensed a change in the air!

The temperature is dropping rapidly, at a rate that can be felt on the skin!

Noticing this strange phenomenon, Pear Blossom's delicate face beamed with an even brighter smile.

The boss is here!

"Hiss~ It's a bit cold."

Lillie and the others naturally sensed this obvious change, and crossed their arms and frowned.

This is so sudden and so strange.

Daigo also frowned deeply, but the next moment, a sense of danger suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart.

"Metamorphoses! Protect!"

Daigo looked up at the sky, where an incredibly powerful blizzard was crashing down from the heavens!

Metagross immediately floated above Steven, and a green barrier instantly rose up.

Meanwhile, Suicune leaped above the campfire and the others to protect them.

Call ~

A biting wind instantly enveloped Daigo and the others, and a faint, surging chill spread outwards invisibly.

The terrifying freezing air caused a thick layer of frost to form wherever the white vapor drifted—on the ground, rocks, and seawater!

Everything, everything, has been frozen!

As the blizzard fell, a bird spirit descended from the sky and landed in front of the pear blossoms and a tree.

Its entire body is mostly red, and it stands on two legs like a penguin. It is Delibird, an Ice-type Flying-type Pokémon from the Johto region!

On the back of the messenger bird was a short, thin man!

Wearing a hideous and terrifying ice sculpture mask and draped in a black robe covering his entire body, one could not sense any aura emanating from this man other than coldness.

"Boss!" Pear Blossom and Ichishu both lowered their heads at the same time. Facing this masked man, even Pear Blossom, who is usually lively and outgoing, was now only filled with respect.

"Luggia is here?"

A deep, hoarse, and indifferent voice came from beneath the ice mask. Although it was disguised, one could still discern the age in the voice.

It's clear that this masked man is quite old.

Yes, in that direction.

Pear Blossom pointed to the half-submerged island in the distance and replied to the masked man.

The masked man did not reply, but looked into the distance. Where the pear blossoms and the tree could not see, a hint of excitement appeared in the masked man's emotionless eyes, which were as cold and desolate as an icy abyss.

Lugia! Lugia has actually been found!

He was really old, and he didn't know how much longer he could live, but no matter what, he had to get Lugia and Ho-Oh!

"who are you?"

Just then, a clear yet steady voice rang out, it was Daigo.

Although the blizzard came suddenly, Metagross managed to use its protection in time, preventing Steven from being frozen directly.

His Metagross was now covered in frost, clearly indicating that even though he had successfully used the protective shield, Metagross was still affected by the blizzard!

This shows that the masked man's strength is terrifying!

Meanwhile, the girls at the campfire also stood with their arms crossed, staring at the masked man. In front of them, Suicune shook off the frost and snow. Fortunately, due to its legendary stamina and attribute, Suicune's resistance to ice-type attacks allowed it to successfully protect the girls at the campfire.

The masked man slowly turned his head, his icy gaze falling on Daigo, who had spoken.

“He is Steven, the former champion of the Hoenn region.” Knowing that Masked Man never paid attention to worldly affairs, Ichiki whispered to Masked Man.

"A promising junior."

The masked man's eyes remained unchanged upon hearing this. A champion standing at the pinnacle of the world? In his eyes, he was nothing but a joke.

Masked Man has no intention of being an enemy of the League. He has never had any ambitions or aspirations, because his goal has always been only Ho-Oh and Lugia. But if anything gets in his way, he will not hesitate to do so!

"Messenger bird, frozen wind."

As the calm, aged voice fell, the messenger bird opened its beak, and instantly, a powerful icy wind, like a hurricane, swept towards Daigo, Campfire, and the others!

"How could it be so strong..."

Gazing at the Metagross that had been frozen in an instant before him, Daigo's expression remained one of profound shock. His body was also covered in frost, and even his breath was white vapor.

This is because the surrounding temperature is too low.

This was only because the Masked Man held back; Daigo understood this very well. Otherwise, that messenger bird could have frozen them all in place.

With just one move of the Frozen Wind, Metagross's counterattack of Psychic Power was completely overwhelmed, and Metagross was frozen in place with overwhelming force!

That's an absolutely terrifying intensity!

There really is such a powerful Ice-type trainer in this world? That's just a Delibird! A Delibird used as a messenger Pokémon!

It's not a powerful mainstream spirit at all!

"Hmm~ Nothing is impossible, Mr. Daigo. This world is very, very big~-"

Pear Blossom leaned against a rock with her arms crossed, glancing with a smile in the direction the messenger bird had disappeared in the sky, before lazily replying.

Even as her subordinate, she only knew a fraction of the Masked Man's power.

That was a bottomless, icy abyss! So cold that it engulfed and swallowed one by one in despair!

……

Under the dark sky, the sea was still not calm, with wave after wave crashing against the half-submerged island.

Although the cataclysmic tsunami unleashed by Dark Lugia was defeated by Dark Mewtwo, the terrifying amount of seawater falling from the sky still washed away half of the island.

Yulongdu stood atop the fossilized pterosaur, gazing into the distance with a complex expression.

In his line of sight, Bakura had clearly already figured out a way to deal with Dark Lugia, because Dark Lugia was floating in front of Bakura without any resistance.

This god, which he released and defeated his main Dragonite, was ultimately defeated by Bakura.

This inevitably caused the proud and arrogant Yulongdu to have mixed feelings, and...

I knew absolutely nothing about Bakura before, and of course, I still don't know anything about him now, even with Wataru.

But at least after this incident, Yulongdu understood that Bakura was definitely an extremely mysterious being.

Moreover, this person seems to have a good friendship with the Lugia clan, the sea god?

"We should really investigate his background when we get back."

Yu Longdu narrowed his eyes slightly, his handsome and arrogant face showing a thoughtful expression.

At least for now, Bakura is even better than him and that stinky rat from the Rockets!

Even the leader of Team Rocket, despite being able to fight four opponents single-handedly with the help of the mysterious Mewtwo, was only barely holding on.

In fact, Lance thought that the Team Rocket leader could only fight him and Steven at the same time. When he fought four opponents in Goldenrod City, he was just parrying their attacks and was actually struggling to survive.

After all, the power of a group fight is hard to imagine. One person's energy is ultimately limited. In the midst of a tense battle, one must simultaneously command multiple Pokémon to deal with two trainers with completely different styles.

But it's not that easy.

But Du knew that Bakura's strength was probably far beyond that disgusting, smelly rat!

However, when I rode the dragon, I had never heard of Bakura!

"With his help, we can deal with those two remnants of Team Rocket..."

Lance pondered. If Bakura was willing to help him deal with Giovanni and Orochimaru, Lance believed that their Pokémon League could definitely wipe out those two stinking rats!

That's right, Lance and Daigo had the same idea...

After all, in their interactions now, although Bakura is very sarcastic, to the point that Lance wants to pull out a Poké Ball and fight him to the death, Lance's impression of Bakura is still quite good.

Moreover, Bakura had just saved his life.

While pondering the feasibility of this plan, Yu Longdu suddenly froze, his expression blank.
