Black Rayquaza's enormous body crashed into the lake, and Mewtwo plunged into the water right behind it. The two Pokémon fought so fiercely underwater that they turned the lake upside down, leaving it in utter chaos before finally returning to the sky.
Huge quantities of lake water poured through the breaches left by their battle and into the nearby forest, flooding nearly half of it.
By then, roughly seven or eight minutes had passed since they began fighting.
Although the battle had only been going on for a short time, Xia You could already tell which of them was stronger.
Unfortunately, his Rayquaza did not seem to be a match for Mewtwo.
Black Rayquaza's enormous body had given it no advantage in this battle. Quite the opposite: while that size would keep it from being at a disadvantage against a similarly sized Pokémon, against a humanoid Pokémon like Mewtwo, its huge body became a burden, leaving it unable to defend both ends at once.
It was already slower than Mewtwo, and its massive body meant more openings to exploit, putting Rayquaza even further on the defensive!
Most importantly, unlike Rayquaza, Mewtwo not only possessed overwhelming power but could also freely use abilities such as long-range teleportation, weather manipulation, creating objects through thought, reversing time, altering memories, and controlling others' minds. It also possessed extraordinary intelligence, allowing it to fight without being confined to straightforward exchanges of moves. It could often hurt Rayquaza through creative, more unexpected methods.
That was why, despite both being among this world's strongest combatants, Mewtwo seemed more at ease and held the upper hand.
Its reputation as the strongest artificial Pokémon was no empty boast!
Seeing this, Xia You shook his head.
Sigh...
He could only marvel at how absurd the Psychic type was, as always.
