Remembering how Heatran's roar had scared Giant Magmortar into trembling, Sato could not help feeling somewhat dazed.
So it was still an immature child!
Still, it was not Sato's fault for failing to notice. Most people understood Legendary Pokémon to be long-lived and reclusive.
So who knew how old Heatran had to be before it counted as an adult?
After soothing the frightened Heatran, the Pokémon had more or less finished lunch. One by one, they flexed their muscles and stared eagerly, waiting to participate in battle.

Afterward, Lucario silently took the lead. Cynthia and Sato followed close behind, bound to make Hunter X pay for this.
In less than ten minutes, Lucario had quietly led the two of them to the enemy's downwind side.
