Void Space

Galvantula's team composition was perfect. The leader would use its pre-domain move where it would connect the health of all of them around it. There were also 2 tier 2 king-rank Galvantula that had the ability to remove status effect.

There they had trained on moves like 'Sticky webs', 'String shots', and 'Electrowebs' that would paralyze the target.

The other 2 tier 2 king rank Galvantula also had the moves that could combine some of the special type moves like 'Electro ball'.

So, if a group of Pokemons attacked them, first they would be covered in those sticky webs that not only made them difficult to move but also made them paralyzed. Then all of them would attack.

And if the enemy was way stronger, the leader would use its pre-domain move to counterattack them.

The leader was also very large for its size and it had a special move that its defense and special defense would grow stronger when it was with its allies. So, this was a team that was designed to tackle high-level Pokemons and the group of Pokemons.

Axel didn't know much about it but what he knew from all the experiences that he had was that if the leader was not separated from its minions, they were never going to win this battle.

So, he secretly told Slowemperor to use the move 'Confusion' on the tier 2 king rank Galvantulas. Its 'Confusion' was very powerful and the move also had a higher chance of creating illusions.

When the Slowemperor used the move, the leader Galvantula had no idea that such a thing had happened. So, it would teleport near the leader. The leader being so confident knew that it could not be touched by the defense of all of its minions and generals. Its overconfidence made Slowemperor possible to teleport far away from its minions.

Now, Slowemperor was not well versed in using the move 'Teleport' but it could use it at a very fast speed. The distance covered was not something to be impressed but it was able to take the leader away from this place.

Just when it teleported the leader, Slowemperor immediately used the move 'Confusion' with its full power. It must be noted that Slowemperor was pseudo-champion rank Pokemon and it was very powerful compared to the leader Galvantula.

So, the leader immediately fell inside the illusion. After that Slowemperor used the move 'Ice beam' to freeze it completely. It took some time because the leader was quite big. After that Slowemperor used the move 'Substitute' and told the substitute to guard the leader while it teleported back to deal with the minions.

When it teleported back, it looked at the pandemonium caused by its teammates. After losing the leader, the Galvantulas were not only confused but also scared. They didn't have the same coordination as before.

Axel and his team took full advantage of it. One of the tier 2 king rank Galvantula was already dead. Nidoking and others quickly took care of the rest of them while others started to hack the pseudo-king rank Pokemons and tier 1 king rank Pokemons with the help of Infernape.

The battle was over in 10 minutes. All of them used their pre-domain moves and signature moves to complete this mission as soon as possible.

This battle was very risky and most of the Pokemons were injured in this fight. Using the pre-domain move was also very risky because it consumed a lot of stamina and if something happened after this fight, they didn't have enough stamina for it.

But Axel was willing to risk it. He just wanted a long rest after this fight.

After the battle was over, Axel said to Magnus, "Teleport that leader here. I will deal with it."

He first wanted to see its status page. He wanted to see what was so special about this Galvantula.

Within seconds Slowemperor disappeared and appeared once again with a frozen Galvantula.

"Let's see what we have here.", said Axel but as he was ready to see its status page, something happened.

Something he had feared all this time in this cave.

A burst of aura came from nowhere and they felt as if the gravity of the cave had increased several folds.

Axel could see that the frozen Galvantula was now covered in some sort of purple hue. Slowly, the ice covering its whole body started to melt and then it suddenly disappeared.

Axel could only think of one entity that could do such a thing and he hoped that he was wrong. But unfortunately, that was not the case.

When the frozen Galvantula disappeared, the pressure of gravity increased. Suddenly, the walls of the cave started to get narrower and narrower and it looked like they would be crushed by the narrowed walls in just a few seconds.

All of these things happened so suddenly that no one could do anything. Venusaur tried to use its 'Vine whip' and 'Deep forest emergence' to block the cave from getting narrower but its tries were futile. The cave was getting narrower by the second and they had to come up with an escape plans as fast as possible.

"Krishna, it is time. Do it now!!!", shouted Axel.

Krishna was also so freaked out by all of this that he had totally forgotten his trump card.

Krishna hurriedly shouted, "Musharna!! Use your 'Void space'"

Musharna gave a long cry and suddenly a portal opened inside the cave. The portal seemed like it was a gateway to another world.

"Quickly, it cannot hold this for more than 10 seconds.", shouted Krishna.

Everyone called their Pokemons inside the ball and everyone went inside the portal. Their teamwork was very fast. Within 10 seconds all of them including Musharna went inside the portal.

###

"I cannot believe that we were going to die. Thanks for Krishna sir that we are alive.", shouted Suresh as he took a deep breath.

Axel looked around the new place that they had come from the portal. It was like a big hall but it was entirely different from a normal place. The place was covered in a purple aura. There were some chairs and tables that made it look normal and there was some abnormal amount of food inside this place.

When a Pokemon reaches higher ranks like king rank, there was an extremely low chance that the Pokemon would create a new move after the rank up.

The chance was so low that even Axel's Pokemons had not been able to do it till now.

But Krishna's Musharna did. It had created a move where it could create a separate pocket space and then it could access that pocket place from anywhere and bring others to it too.

But there were several restrictions to it.

"Sir, Musharna's pocket space has many restrictions. First, we can only live here for a week. After that, we would be forced out and we cannot access it for a day.

Secondly, this pocket space lacks a lot of things, and the environment here is not suitable for us to live here for a long time.

So, we must have an action plan by the end of this week."

Axel had brought Krishna on this expedition because he had this Pokemon that could protect the team in the time of need. Never in his life had he thought that it would be useful today. Because he never thought that he would face such a situation where they would have to run.

Axel stood up and looked at his scared teammates. He was also feeling scared but he could show that in his face right now.

"Listen, all of you calm down for now. As per Krishna, we have a week to think about a new plan. That is enough time to come up with a new plan. Don't worry. I know that all of you are scared and I am not going to say that I am confident that we will return back alive.

All of you know the situation but getting nervous and living in fear is also not going to keep us alive. So, I want all of you to brainstorm on how to get out of this situation."

It took a minute or two and finally, others started to actually think about the situation on how to get out of there.

They started to think about the situation.

"Sir, I think that this is the work of that great one.", said Kate.

"Yes, I believe that there is no doubt that it is the work of a great one.", confirmed Axel.

"I can tell that it was not an illusion. There were no such fluctuations.", said Slowemperor.

"Then it is confirmed that this is the work of a great one. This means that the great one has some sort of control of this cave.", said Axel.

This time, it was Absol who came up with valuable information.

"Yes, but that is also right to say that the great one doesn't have full control of this cave. Because if it did, it would have attacked us way before.

That could solve a lot of questions for us."

"Question? Like what?"

"First of all, the great one has done everything to take control of this island. It had created cyclones to protect this island. It had taken control over the cave and also all the Pokemons inside the island.

But it doesn't have full control of the island and it needs to use some significant power to control this island or the cave. That is why the cyclones are not there for all over the year.

That is why we were not killed till now.

And also, I believe that the Pokemons like Galvantula are quite special and the great one must sacrifice a lot to make them do things. Because the people that came here before, never said that they faced such a thing and yet they got way fat and also got some shiny stones. But we have not gotten there yet."

This time, Nidoking came forward and said, "Actually, we have."

It opened its arms and on its arms was a massive shiny stone that was glowing.

Togetic became ecstatic after seeing it. This was what it needed.

"Where did you get it?"

"Just where the leader was standing. I looked around and found it and pocketed it."

Krishna went forward to check and said, "This is perfect for Togetic. The quality that we have been searching for. We have completed the mission."

"Yes, but we still must get out of here. Togetic, we will use this after some time, okay? Right now, we need to think of a plan."

Togetic felt sad that it could not evolve right now but it knew how important the escape plan was. So, it held its urge to do it right now and thought about the escape plan.

After a long discussion, they came up with something.

"The Pokemon, that great one that we are facing is not only a dark type Pokemon but also a psychic type Pokemon."

Because only a psychic type Pokemon could use its powers to do such a thing. Teleport a Pokemon, increase the gravity and narrow the cave which it didn't have full control over.

Also, Slowemperor confirmed that it noticed psychic type energy fluctuating when the pressure of gravity increased.

"So, a Pokemon, that is a dark and psychic type and that could also manipulate water. Is there any Pokemon like that?"

At that time, Axel smiled. The answer had been with them the whole time but they just didn't see it.

"Yes, there is. It is Malamar."
