Eindoak Town,
The mayor's office.
With Victini's ability and the authority granted by the chairman of the Unova League,
Li Wei successfully persuaded Momondo to join his side.
After all, Momondo had been wavering to begin with.
There was nothing wrong with Momondo himself; he simply lacked all the crucial information.

The battle had already begun.
The two sides fighting were
Mega Metagross, commanded by Steven,
