The waters of Route 128,
Faced with a pincer attack from Ancient Dragonite, Articuno, Mega Dragonite, and Mega Metagross,
Primal Kyogre chose its signature move-Origin Pulse!
It was essentially an enhanced version of Hydro Pump.
Four blue points of light formed beside Kyogre's mouth, arranged at the four corners of a rectangle.
