"RAAAAAAA!"
The trio, now in their Therian Fors, threw back their heads and unleashed thunderous roars.
If the Forces of Nature in their Incarnate Fors could barely cling to reason, then in their Therian Fors, they were completely feral.
Not just Thundurus and Tornadus—even Landorus, usually the most rational—its mind was now filled entirely with savage violence.
RUMBLE!
With a deafening crack of thunder, Thundurus struck first.
In its Therian For, Thundurus beca longer, leaner, and slightly draconic.
The white cloud beneath its feet shifted upward to its hands; its snout elongated, its whiskers thinned and lengthened, and a blue gem glead within the purple marking at its navel.
Thundurus already had a hotheaded nature, and after shifting to its Therian For, its temperant worsened.
At this mont, its mind was consud by destruction—wanting nothing more than to annihilate the humans before it.
Bzzzt—bzzzt—bzzzt!
Countless electric arcs crackled between Thundurus's hands, forming claw-like shapes.
A fully-powered Thunderbolt, crackling with innurable bolts, ca crashing down toward the group.
Seeing this, Mars reacted without hesitation.
She released all six of her main Pokémon at once:
A Flareon like a fla spirit; a Rapidash shrouded in roaring fire; a Charizard beating its wings, ready to soar; a pitch-black Houndoom crowned with curved horns; a Torkoal puffing thick smoke from its shell; and an Alolan Marowak wielding a ghostly bone-club burning with flas.
True to her codena, all six of Mars's Pokémon were Fire-type—and every one had reached Elite Four Tier.
Indeed—Team Galactic lived up to its reputation as a global terrorist organization. Even its executives possessed Elite Four-level strength.
Against such a lineup, small countries likely couldn't resist.
"Flareon, [OVERHEAT]."
"Marowak, [SUBSTITUTE]."
With Thundurus's attack almost upon them, Mars issued commands in rapid succession.
"Yip!"
Flareon let out a brief cry, flas gathering rapidly in its tiny mouth.
As Flareon moved, the other Pokémon acted instinctively, without needing direct orders.
"Torkoal!"
A blazing phantom sun burst upward from Torkoal, piercing through storm clouds to flood the island with dazzling sunlight.
Drought was activated!
At the sa ti, Rapidash, Charizard, and Houndoom unleashed Flathrower simultaneously.
Their target wasn't Thundurus overhead—but their teammate, Flareon.
Three streams of differently-hued flas rapidly enveloped Flareon.
Yet, those flas didn't harm Flareon at all.
Instead, Flareon continuously absorbed their power through Flash Fire, its strength rising exponentially.
Like an erupting volcano, a scorching inferno—hot enough to sear the skies and boil seas—surged upward to swallow the lightning above.
Just as Team Galactic mbers braced themselves, expecting a terrifying energy collision—the lightning above suddenly curved sharply, streaking toward Alolan Marowak instead.
Then bolts poured onto Marowak in a violent torrent.
BANG!
The Substitute, unable to withstand such imnse power, detonated imdiately.
"[LIGHTNING ROD]…!" the sharp-eyed executive couldn't help blurting out.
[Lightning Rod]: Draws in Electric-type moves, nullifying damage and raising Special Attack.
Even with Lightning Rod, Thundurus's lightning wasn't sothing an Elite Four-level Alolan Marowak could directly withstand.
Therefore, Mars had prudently commanded Marowak to use Substitute as additional protection.
That decision clearly proved wise.
Now, with Thunderbolt no longer obstructing its path, Flareon's flas engulfed Thundurus completely.
Thundurus, despite being a legendary Pokémon, couldn't help howling in pain under the blistering heat!
Boosted by harsh sunlight and Flash Fire, Flareon's all-out attack reached Champion-tier power.
Defeating Thundurus outright was, of course, fantasy.
But dealing genuine damage? That was perfectly achievable.
Indeed—in terms of tactical synergy, Mars had already carved out her own path.
Torkoal's weather control combined with Flareon's explosive power—even Water-type Pokémon would struggle to endure such scorching heat!
"RAAAAAAA!!"
Tornadus, seeing Thundurus struck down, revealed a flash of contemptuous mockery in its eyes.
Perhaps transforming into its Therian For made Tornadus look down on Thundurus even more.
Yet regardless of its disdain, the trio remained united.
If Thundurus lost face, they all lost face.
So Tornadus acted imdiately, determined to reclaim their pride.
Unlike Thundurus's Therian For, Tornadus's Therian For grew more birdlike. The cloud moved to the base of its twin tails; its snout reshaped into a beak; the horn on its head lengthened and thinned; and a red gem glead within the purple marking at its navel.
Tornadus beat its wide wings furiously, instantly whipping up fierce gales across the battlefield.
The winds extinguished the flas around Thundurus and ravaged the entire island.
But Tornadus didn't get to revel in its power for long. Its attack was quickly blocked by rcury.
After transforming into their Therian Fors, Thundurus and Tornadus only knew how to attack relentlessly, without a hint of tactical thinking.
Thus, Mars and rcury, relying solely on the coordinated efforts of their Elite Four-tier Pokémon, barely managed to withstand the legendary duo's assaults.
Seeing Thundurus and Tornadus struggling to defeat these humans, Landorus finally lost patience.
Landorus's Therian For resembled a fierce tiger.
In Guo Yi's previous world, netizens even jokingly called it the "earth cat."
After transforming, Landorus's lower-body cloud shifted to its four legs; its whiskers slightly changed, covering its mouth; the spikes on its head altered shape, and a beige gemstone appeared within the pink marking at its navel.
Landorus wasn't just the strongest of the trio—it was also the only one with a female counterpart.
Landorus's corresponding female Pokémon was Enamorus, a Pokémon from the Hisui region.
According to legend, Enamorus's compassion caused new life to blossom across Hisui, earning it the title "Herald of Spring."
If soone committed acts that hard life, Enamorus, in its Therian For, would rise from the sea of clouds and unleash furious punishnt.
Indeed Landorus wasn't just the strongest; even its "treatnt" was superior.
Thundurus and Tornadus had no female counterparts—dooming them to lives of solitude.
No wonder those two were always fighting!
Apparently, they had too much pent-up frustration and nowhere to release it!
"RRAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
Landorus stepped forward, its tiger-like stride releasing terrifying pressure.
Instantly, every Pokémon on the battlefield involuntarily staggered backward, their physical attack diminished.
This was the power of Landorus's transford ability—Intimidate.
But just as Landorus began gathering power, intending to obliterate everyone before it...
Cyrus's voice rang out clearly:
"Now."
At that instant, Team Galactic mbers yanked away the final piece of black cloth.
Underneath was a massive incubation device resembling the cloning machines from New Island in the original story—not particularly sophisticated technology.
However, the three Pokémon inside were far from ordinary!
If Guo Yi had been present, he would have recognized them at a glance:
They were the Sinnoh region's Lake Guardians.
The Lake Guardians were the legendary Pokémon Uxie, sprit, and Azelf.
Legend stated Uxie gave humans "knowledge," sprit endowed them with "emotion," and Azelf gifted them "willpower."
Who would've thought Team Galactic had captured all three?
Unlike Landorus or Thundurus, the Lake Guardians weren't inherently battle-focused Pokémon, and their strength wasn't exceptionally high—they had only just barely reached Champion Tier.
Against an organization as formidable as Team Galactic, once their locations had been exposed, they stood no chance of resistance.
After the cloth was removed, the device activated.
Imdiately afterward, the sleeping Lake Guardians knitted their brows, as if trapped in a nightmare.
Then a red chain materialized from nowhere and shot toward Landorus.
For so inexplicable reason, the instant Landorus saw the chain, an unprecedented feeling of danger surged through its heart.
Without hesitation, it poured the gathered power into an attack against the chain.
However, Landorus's attack rely halted the red chain for a brief mont—it didn't damage the chain at all.
The red chain swiftly wrapped around Landorus, restraining it tightly.
A strange red light flooded Landorus's eyes, erasing its consciousness entirely.
This red chain had been crafted using the Lake Guardians' powers.
In the original story, it could even control Dialga, the deity of ti, and Palkia, the deity of space.
Controlling Landorus, whose strength was far inferior to those legendary Pokémon, required little effort.
At this mont, Landorus had clearly beco Cyrus's enforcer.
"Landorus—[OUTRAGE]!"
After seizing control, Cyrus imdiately ordered Landorus to attack Thundurus and Tornadus.
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
With a roar befitting the king of beasts, Landorus surged with potent Dragon-type energy, charging ferociously toward the nearest target—Thundurus.
