Cyrus, sensing that the situation had turned against him, chose to retreat after having Gyarados's Giga Impact clash with Cynthia's Garchomp's Draco Meteor.
His objective had already been achieved. He had bought enough time for Team Galactic's airship to retreat.
Xia Yan, who had just captured Regieleki, and Cynthia, who was in a brief period of exhaustion, could only watch Cyrus leave safely as the remaining Team Galactic members desperately held them back.
Picking up the Quick Ball, Xia Yan rubbed his temples with a headache.
Even though.
Steven and the others should have caught up.
Even though.
The Sinnoh League should have already deployed some manpower at Spear Pillar on Mt. Coronet.
Still, Xia Yan had a feeling that whatever was meant to happen would happen. It could not be stopped.
"So... do I have to calm Dialga and Palkia down again?"
Come to think of it.
Once in Alamos Town, once during the Hisui era—he had already calmed those two down twice.
Again?
Still.
The one thing he could be thankful for was that, at least this time, he would not have to stand at the forefront alone.
With two Champions, Steven and Cynthia.
Surely he could slack off for once, right?
He opened the Quick Ball and summoned Regieleki.
Come to think of it.
In the world Xia Yan had originally come from, Cynthia had also successfully caught a Regieleki.
Regieleki had fallen unconscious. Xia Yan fitted the missing blue ring, which could restrict the overflow of its electricity, back onto its body.
As Regieleki's ring was restored, its previously dull body finally regained its vivid colors.
Regieleki was an immensely powerful Pokémon capable of generating electricity on its own.
Some researchers had even calculated it.
The electricity released by Regieleki could supply the entire Galar Region
