Emergency

Hey! It's me, your best friend Romeo.

I, having nothing better to do, decided to patiently wait on Medusa's return.

[What about Risa?]

Since Risa is participating in that battle then she most definitely has the means to protect herself and besides it's unlikely for their battle to end without outside influence.

Giratina is the one who's being ambushed here, and although it seems as though he had the advantage in each confrontation so far, this is only because only a few L&Ms were sent to battle.

Well Kanto and Johto's forces have been emptied but Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Kalos haven't been stocked out, let's not even mention Unova, Alola, and Galar that are not participating. Heck as long as Giratina was sealed for an hour, his forces would've been cleared out and he would've lost.

This war too Arceus might just be a drill. Whoever dies here wouldn't have been any help in the upcoming war.

I had gone way too off-topic there. I was talking about battle lengths.

The reason why battles tend to take long despite the fact one or 2 direct hits can usually kill mostly has to do with abilities rather than energy as I had previously thought.

For example, when I had to fight Aqua I quickly realized my only counter to her Corrupted Water was Destruction but her ability to create it far surpasses my ability to destroy it. Meaning, if I continued to spam destruction with its high energy cost, I would've run out of energy soon enough.

Of course, I could have followed System's advice and rushed towards her coated in Destructive energy. However, who knew what hidden Uber ability she may have had to counter It. Yes, now we know most of her abilities are auxiliaries but I didn't know that back then, so I chose the method of ignoring her biggest weapon in hopes of ending the battle instead of stretching it further to see if she had any other cards hidden.

Maybe Eve has an idea on how to beat Giratina thanks to Dialga, Palkia, and Arceus, but, if she doesn't make tests to see how accurate it is and confirm whether or not Giratina gained any new holes it could lead to their loss. Therefore the fight won't end easily, especially since the two are Mews making their cards changeable.

Right! Now that I have established why it's not necessary to rush over to help Risa let's talk about the present.

[Correction: You're delaying until you can think of a proper excuse to present Risa for your attempt at killing one of your concubines]

...So, currently it has been 3 days since our battle ended, and now there's only Medusa's own left.

We have been discussing about Medusa and Phenix (Ho-oh) to determine who would win before coming to the conclusion neither will.

Medusa can only be killed through soul attacks while Phenix is almost the same. Phenix's additional weakness is extinguishing her flames which can prevent resurrection. Easier said than done though, likely only Kyurem and Kyogre can kill Phenix without soul attacks.

It won't change nothing even if assumingly Phenix can create Corrupted Flames. In that case, Medusa's Perfect Body: Spatial makes her uncontaminatable.

This means this battle will continue until one of the 2 sides run out of energy which means Medusa will win. She could use Universe Spirit to have unlimited energy until Ho-oh counters it, but then she has Internal Universe, its Uber form.

Maybe Phenix in her right mind would be able to win, but that would mean she did either have a soul attack or simply seals Medusa. Simply I may say, but good luck sealing a Pokemon that can tear space with its jaw.

"I say we go up there and provide an opportunity for Mother to touch Grandma, her purification ability is doing wonders," Aurora said her gaze focus on her Mother leaning on me.

How did she get there? Let's not talk about it, that topic's long and annoying.

"It's indeed rare for dumb Hugh to be so quiet," Artic said. "How long can your ability last?"

"It can purify anything besides the generators of contamination," Aqua explains.

Should I feel insulted right now?

"This is only if the generator originally generated contaminated items. Those that originally generate contaminated items can't be saved, the most I can do is purify the contaminated items,"

"So we can save Phenix and annoy Medusa at the same time, perfect!" I shouted jumping away from Aqua who sighed relief.

*cough*

The glare from Aurora told me enough. Reluctantly, I went beside Aqua and sat down before Aqua after a short moment of hesitation, reluctantly leaning onto my body.

"This is why we should hate kids," I muttered before closing my eyes hoping to sense the Pocket Dimension.

"Huh?" Quickly, I send a dust size creature moving towards me.

[Pokemon: Murkrow

Physique: Mutation:- Size]

Mutation? Is this Gaia's pet?

Micro Murkrow quickly flew towards what I did like to call my ears and screeched out.

"EMERGENCY, EMERGENCY, RETURN BACK!"

Is it hatching time already? Or did something else happen back home?
