Everyone looked at one another, and for a moment, no one spoke.
Some had already mounted cameras on their Pokémon's backs, and a large number of drones began taking off one after another, ready to record the entire grand event.
Of course, to avoid unnecessary trouble and capturing situations beyond their control, they had all been strictly forbidden from livestreaming and could only record the footage first.
Just then, a young man riding a Pidgeot burst out of the crowd and charged into the Light Gate, holding his letter high!
Seeing someone make a move, everyone turned their eyes toward him.
A large number of cameras quickly tracked him, and several drones followed behind the boy.
For a moment, the boy stole all the limelight, looking ready to soar into the heavens and seize the moon!
Rumble!
The sky around the gate of light was the complete opposite of the clear skies outside. As soon as the young man charged in, countless bolts of lightning descended from the swirling thunderclouds, all striking toward him!
The crowd cried out in alarm, never expecting the lightning to chase Pidgeot as though it had eyes.
Pidgeot dodged at tremendous speed. As expected of a Pokémon whose flying speed was second only to Dragonite's, even the lightning could do nothing to him for the moment.
The boy on Pidgeot's back was immensely pleased with himself, thinking, That's all there is to it.
Boom!
A bolt of Thunder as thick as a bucket took the form of a ferocious dragon and plunged from the sky without warning!
This time, Pidgeot failed to dodge and was blasted black all over. He fell into the sea along with the Trainer on his back, and the waves swallowed them in an instant.
"Hiss..."
Everyone sucked in a breath.
