Although they had found the Ultimate Weapon, deciding how to deal with it was still a major headache.

Even though Xia Chen knew the entire game storyline of the sixth generation of Pokémon—the Kalos region—he had no idea what to do with the Ultimate Weapon.

Because the game never explained how to destroy the Ultimate Weapon.

If there was a way, there was only one.

It was the plot point when Team Flare fell—

The energy beam fired by the Ultimate Weapon ultimately fell back onto itself, burying Team Flare's base and Lysandre underground, leaving only a massive crater in the center of Rivière Town.

According to his dad's theory that "only magic can defeat magic"—

Only the Ultimate Weapon's energy could destroy the Ultimate Weapon?

The idea of using one's own spear against one's own shield left Xia Chen conflicted.

In theory, the Ultimate Weapon was merely an artificial weapon invented by AZ three thousand years ago. It should not have been that durable.

Yet AZ's brother had clearly had a chance to destroy this Pandora's box directly, but had chosen to bury it instead...

Was it impossible to destroy, or had he simply been unwilling to?

Xia Chen leaned toward the former, because there was another detail in the game's plot—

After Team Flare's downfall, Devon Corp. acquired most of the Ultimate Weapon's technology and converted it into Infinity Energy.

That meant the Ultimate Weapon had most likely not been completely destroyed. Its core components might even have remained intact; otherwise, where would Devon Corp.'s technology have come from?

"Don't overthink it. It's just one punch from me."

Koraidon said, "If that doesn't work, I'll throw two punches."

It sounded somewhat reasonable, but Floette hesitated. "What if destroying it by force causes it to erupt ahead of time?"
