Articuno - a legendary Pokemon with both Ice and Flying types.
The azure figure with long tail feathers and the distinctive crest on its forehead revealed its identity as a legendary Pokemon. Its body was surrounded by cold air, and snowflakes fell gently when it flapped its wings.
Even though this was just an ordinary Articuno and not the Ice God itself, its appearance still brought an overwhelming sense of pressure and continuously radiated cold air outward.
Jacob's eyes swept over Articuno, and he could see at a glance that this Articuno's strength was also at the Champion level.
Jacob, who had thought he had finally saved his life, looked grim. The current situation was difficult to predict. He didn't know who was stronger between the Champion-level Articuno and Iron Valiant.
Nina was still in shock and had thought she was doomed to die. However, Jacob had suddenly taken out a mysterious item, which had caused a huge commotion and summoned a Pokemon that had never been seen before.
Then, this Pokemon that looked like both Gardevoir and Gallade had directly entered battle mode, fighting one against five, seriously injuring Umbreon and Dragonite while only suffering minor injuries itself.
Just when she thought the situation had turned around, the mysterious figure had released a sixth Pokemon: Articuno!
A legendary Pokemon!
"Is this Articuno?" Nina asked numbly, with disbelief in her eyes. What had happened tonight was like a dream.
"Shh!" Jacob made a silence gesture to her, indicating she shouldn't speak loudly, otherwise it would be troublesome if she attracted Iron Valiant's attention.
"Articuno, Mind Reader!" the mysterious figure commanded.
Jacob's heart sank when he heard the command from the mysterious figure.
Mind Reader combined with Sheer Cold could be said to be the classic standard strategy of Articuno.
Use Mind Reader to lock onto the opponent, sense the opponent's actions, increase the hit rate of the next attack, and then use Sheer Cold to instantly defeat the opponent.
It was obvious that this person had this intention. If Articuno really used this combination, even a Champion-level Iron Valiant would most likely not be able to withstand Sheer Cold.
However, Iron Valiant had obviously never fought against Articuno and didn't understand Articuno's Mind Reader and Sheer Cold combination moves, so it continued fighting in its own way.
"Dazzling Gleam!"
It brandished the double blades in its hands, and rich Fairy-type energy burst from its body, emitting brilliant light at all the Pokemon on the field!
Dazzling Gleam was a group attack move, so Iron Valiant naturally targeted all the Pokemon in front of it, whether it was Gardevoir, Greninja, Dragonite, Umbreon, Arcanine, or Articuno—all of them were within its attack range.
Umbreon, Dragonite, and Greninja, three Pokemon weak to Fairy-type moves, couldn't withstand the powerful Fairy-type attack at all and were seriously injured instantly.
Only Gardevoir and Arcanine were left barely able to resist the attack.
"Gardevoir, continue using Psychic." "Arcanine, Fire Blast!"
Faced with the assault of the other two Pokemon, Jacob certainly couldn't sit idly by. Iron Valiant was his only hope of victory, so he could only command Alakazam to come forward and help.
"Alakazam , Protect!"
Alakazam rushed forward, forming an invisible light shield in front of it, blocking the attacks of the enemy Gardevoir and Arcanine.
Iron Valiant looked at its fellow warrior who had suddenly stood in front of it and looked seventy percent similar to itself. It remained silent, then turned to look at Jacob who was giving the commands.
When his eyes met with Iron Valiant's, Jacob was terrified. He was extremely afraid that Iron Valiant would come over and strike him down with a blade.
Fortunately, Iron Valiant only glanced at Jacob and then shifted its attention back to the Articuno across from them.
"Articuno, Sheer Cold," the mysterious figure's voice commanded.
Articuno flapped its wings and flew high. The cold wind whistled and the coldest air swept over. The ground was frozen at a speed visible to the naked eye. The cold wind carried the Ice-type energy and blew toward Iron Valiant.
Iron Valiant also realized that something was wrong at this time. Faced with the terrifying Sheer Cold attack, it could only move its body at high speed to try to avoid it.
But this cold wind seemed to have a mind of its own. It could always accurately locate Iron Valiant's position and track it, making escape impossible.
Seeing that the cold wind was about to catch up with Iron Valiant, Jacob's eyes flashed with determination. Iron Valiant was his only hope of survival, so he absolutely couldn't let it be frozen by Articuno's Sheer Cold.
Since it was impossible to avoid Sheer Cold, the only option was to let another Pokemon take the hit, but who would do it? Obviously, only Alakazam and Nina's Kommo-o could handle it.
As for Jacob's other Pokemon, they were just there to make up numbers and couldn't stop Sheer Cold.
"Alakazam, charge forward and use Destiny Bond!"
Hearing Jacob's command, Alakazam felt the terrible Ice-type energy contained in the cold wind. It hesitated for just a moment, but after that brief pause, it made its decision and resolutely chose to trust Jacob. It stood in front of Iron Valiant, and Ghost-type energy surged around its body.
A burst of ghostly energy, linking its life force to Articuno's.
"No!"
The cold wind howled, and endless cold air submerged and froze Alakazam into an ice sculpture.
At the same time, the Destiny Bond move was activated, and strange Ghost-type energy rushed toward Articuno, rapidly draining Articuno's stamina.
However, the Destiny Bond move didn't knock down Articuno. Because of the difference in strength, Articuno just lost a lot of stamina and fell into a seriously injured state.
The mysterious figure was somewhat panicked. The seriously injured Articuno was no match for the powerful Iron Valiant.
Iron Valiant looked at Alakazam, who had turned into an ice sculpture in front of it, and stopped where it was. It didn't know what it was thinking. It raised the double blades in its hands and inserted them into the grooves on its arms. Then it suddenly accelerated, pouncing on Articuno like an unsheathed sword, and slashed at it.
The Fighting-type energy in its body surged wildly, almost covering its entire body, launching a fierce attack!
"Protect!"
A shield of light appeared in front of Articuno, blocking Iron Valiant's full-strength attack.
"Damn you, Jacob!" the mysterious figure made an angry sound. They were unwilling to leave in such disgrace. The dream world was full of treasures. They had finally encountered such an opportunity and were unwilling to leave like this.
But they also knew that if they didn't leave, they might really die here!
"Articuno! Mist!"
However, just as the mysterious figure was about to evacuate, a brilliant colorful halo suddenly burst out above their heads.
A silver moon hung high in the sky, and a pink figure appeared in the air. The huge figure almost merged with the moon, and its whole body was wrapped in Psychic energy so rich it was almost tangible.
Jacob had never seen such a massive Cresselia, which had a body the size of a giant passenger plane. In front of it, Jacob felt like a tiny ant.
The master of the Beautiful Dream Secret Realm, the Dream God Cresselia!
As soon as it appeared, powerful psychic energy almost gushed forth, bringing endless pressure to all Pokemon present. The Articuno flying in the air was instantly pressed to the ground, unable to fly even when it flapped its wings desperately.
Iron Valiant was also forced to half-kneel on the ground, struggling to support its body with the double-bladed swords in its hands. It was simply unable to resist the psychic powers emanating from the Dream God.
Jacob and Nina, who were climbing the long steps, were not affected by this overwhelming pressure.
The two looked up at the Dream God as if they were looking up at a deity itself.
The Dream God, who possessed the strength of a Master-level legendary Pokemon, had appeared on the scene. Combined with the boost from being in the dream world, the Dream God was almost invincible in this realm!
The appearance of this divine being had completely changed the balance of power on the battlefield. Every Pokemon present, no matter how strong, was forced to acknowledge the overwhelming presence of the true master of this secret realm. The air itself seemed to vibrate with psychic energy as the Dream God's massive form cast its shadow over the entire area.
Jacob could only watch in awe and terror as the situation had escalated beyond anything he could have imagined. The legendary Pokemon that had seemed so powerful just moments before now appeared insignificant in the presence of this divine entity.
The mysterious figure's plan had been completely disrupted by this unexpected development. Whatever schemes they had been pursuing in this secret realm would now have to contend with the direct intervention of its guardian deity.
Nina gripped Jacob's arm tightly, both of them understanding that they were witnessing something far beyond ordinary Pokemon battles. This was the raw power of a legendary Pokemon with divine authority, and its very presence changed everything about their desperate situation.
