The Evolution Light shone, then faded.
The pure-white Mega Metagross appeared. Its original four legs had transformed into four thick, powerful arms extended forward, each tipped with three terrifying metal claws.
The X-shaped crossed metal plate on its face had turned blue, and a spike had grown from its lower jaw.
"Waaah!" Before Roy could inspect it closely, Mega Metagross suddenly let out a terrified cry.
"What's wrong?" Roy frowned and asked anxiously.
Mega Metagross hurried over to Roy's side and grabbed his shoulders with its tiny fists, each thicker than Roy's waist.
Then—
It patted its own head and said in the creepy tone of someone telling a ghost story, "Wuuun! (What do I do? My brain has become eight brains.)"
Roy: -_-11 That's it?
Speechless as he was, the fact that Metagross's number of brains had doubled again after Mega Evolving was beyond Roy's expectations.
Not long ago, Metagross had officially mastered both Weightless State and Super-Heavy State, greatly increasing its combat strength.
But Roy had also discovered the drawback of this fighting style.
Metagross's Inner Focus would decline.
Metagross's immense mental strength came from the unique structure of its multiple brains.
With four brains in total, whether it split off one brain to maintain the Weightless State or the Super-Heavy State, it would leave only three brains operating.
The decline in Inner Focus would slow Metagross's reactions and weaken its computational ability.
Although Roy was raising Metagross as a Physical Attacker and had no plans to deeply develop its Psychic-type abilities, slow reactions would put it at a severe disadvantage in close combat.
That was why Roy had never arranged for the other two forms.
He had not expected the key to breaking this deadlock to lie in Mega Evolution.
What an unexpected delight.
