--Natural Energy had run out.
The thing that had allowed her to withstand Altaria's bombardment without losing was gone. Seeing that she would not be able to endure the next strike, the watching Slowking chose to intervene.
Milotic understood the reasoning, but she still let out a soft sigh.

Su Hao watched her actions, his expression thoughtful.
Just like Groudon and Kyogre, Milotic's Primal Reversion would inevitably be constrained by Natural Energy.

At this rate, the time needed to accumulate enough Natural Energy for half an
