Above Michina Temple.
The air trembled as space and time twisted.
Thunder cracked across the sky, fierce winds churned the dark clouds, and flashes of fire flared amid the clashing attacks.
Arceus hovered in the air, eyes filled with nothing but the pain and hatred of betrayal!
Michina seemed caught in an apocalyptic catastrophe.
Of course, if Arceus's fury could not be quelled, Michina would surely be destroyed!
Even an avatar of Arceus put immense pressure on Li Wei.
Even with Darkrai, Dialga, and Palkia fighting alongside him, Arceus still overwhelmed them.
Brock looked up at the destructive energy raining from the sky. "Is this... the wrath of the creator?"
Dawn hugged Piplup tightly. "We have to do something!"
Li Wei stood atop the shattered walls of the ruins, his figure looking impossibly small beneath the terrifying pressure radiating from Arceus,
Yet his gaze remained resolute.
Behind him stood powerful allies brought together through friendship and bonds.
Li Wei called out, "Our goal isn't to defeat Arceus, but to stop Arceus from destroying everything and awaken the heart buried beneath that fury!"
Hovering overhead, Arceus had been distracted by Dialga and Palkia directly ahead.
And by Pikachu in front, too...
Ash was getting better and better at seizing every opening,
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"
As always, Ash was the first to charge, golden lightning tearing through the oppressive air,
With the Zap Plate missing, Pikachu's Thunderbolt successfully hurt Arceus,
Without the Grass-type, Ground-type, and Electric-type Plates, Electric-type moves could truly damage Arceus!
"You meddlesome pests!"
Arceus unleashed a roar that shook the heavens, the remaining Plates around the deity blazing with light,
Countless orbs carrying different types of energy rained down like meteors-Judgment!
The pearl discs on Palkia's shoulders lit up again, and each claw slashed out a purple blade of light.
