Mega Dragonite made a dazzling entrance!
"Wooooh!!"
Its enormous white wings beat slowly. Radiant starlight shimmered around it like a beacon of hope, sweeping the gloom from Lance's fans' hearts.
"The real deal! Those sacred wings! Those dazzling orbs! Mega Dragonite has arrived, tearing open the curtain of despair and ushering in the dawn!!"
The commentator shouted himself hoarse. Cheers rolled through the stands in waves, lifting the spirits of countless Kanto trainers.
For Baimu's supporters, though, it was a heavy blow.
"This... Nobody told us this was possible!"
"Can Hydreigon handle it?"
When had Lance mastered Mega Dragonite?
He hadn't used it against Leon, so he had likely gained this power only recently. And what timing, for Baimu to face it now.
In the top-floor office in Silicon Beryllium City, Shan Ren tapped an index finger against his armrest. Huo Wu quietly glanced his way.
"Baimu won't lose," she said softly.
Shan Ren murmured an acknowledgment, but his eyes remained fixed on the projected screen.
Mega Dragonite had appeared for only a few seconds, yet it had already sent shock waves around the world.
Headlines were being prepared one after another. It dominated the comments on PokéVoice and the latest blog posts.
The world's attention was fixed on this battle!
Yet the arena itself was unexpectedly quiet.
Rain continued to fall beneath the dark clouds. Baimu and Hydreigon watched in silence.
Baimu studied Mega Dragonite's appearance; Hydreigon was more concerned with the terrifying power inside its "dragon orbs."
Baimu frowned slightly. Mega... devolution?
Mega Dragonite's appearance suited his tastes well enough, but many of its features looked remarkably like Dragonair's.
Especially the wings beside its head. Weren't they just like the ones Dragonair showed when it flew?
And then there were the orbs on its tail.
"Zahh."
