"It seems that even if we attack it, it won't wake up."
Seeing that Wallace looked like he was about to explode with anger, Cynthia spoke with great emotional intelligence.
"That's right. After all, water restrains the ground. So what should we do? Continue the attack?"
Leon agreed very much.
And Wallace did demonstrate it. At least under the full-strength water cannon of Milotic, Groudon still responded.
Maybe if I use some more powerful moves, Groudon will really wake up.
"But if that's the case, Groudon will really be angry, right?" Giovanni said thoughtfully.
"It's in a deep sleep right now. Mr. Wallace's attack just now proved that. If we continue to attack it, it might wake up and go berserk."
Giovanni expressed his guess.
"Yes, there is such a possibility." Cynthia glanced at Giovanni.
"What should we do then? Too bad we don't have any orbs."
Nemona sighed. Groudon was right in front of them, but they couldn't do anything about it.
In this case, wouldn't all their efforts over the past few days be in vain?
"There are two more methods."
Giovanni spoke thoughtfully, drawing everyone's attention.
"First, let's lure Team Rocket over here and have them fight nearby. The noise of battle and Kyogre's presence might wake Groudon up."
Upon hearing this, Leon and his companions seemed to be thinking about something.
"The idea is feasible, but the problem is how to lure Team Rocket over here?"
Steven frowned. If they really fought nearby, it would be feasible, but the key was how to lure Team Rocket over here?
Team Rocket is an evil organization, but Mammon and the others are not stupid. And after all, it is extremely difficult to get Team Rocket to take the initiative to challenge the Hoenn Alliance.
It is not easy to find Team Rocket, let alone lure them over.
Cynthia nodded in agreement. It would be very difficult to lure Team Rocket here.
"Then the second way is to capture Groudon here!" Giovanni took out a Poké Ball and said in a deep voice.
"What?!"
"ah?"
"Senior, please don't be impulsive!"
Upon hearing this, Steven and others were stunned and hurriedly tried to persuade Giovanni.
"Gym Leader Giovanni, Groudon is a legendary Pokémon. Even if we capture it and put it in a Poké Ball now, once it wakes up, I'm afraid the Poké Ball won't be able to restrain it."
Steven told Giovanni that the option of taming Groudon was too dangerous.
Many powerful Pokémon are not restricted by Poké Balls, let alone powerful super ancient legendary Pokémon like Groudon.
If it suddenly wakes up and finds that it was captured by humans while it was sleeping, it might become furious and even attack the trainer who took advantage of it.
"This is the only way. As long as we put Groudon into the Poké Ball, we can take it away."
Giovanni's eyes were determined, he had made up his mind!
"This behavior is too risky, Master Giovanni." Cynthia frowned.
"That's right, even if we have to take the risk to subdue Groudon, it should be me who does it! Gym Master Giovanni, you..." Steven said in a deep voice.
He is the champion of Hoenn! He is worthy of giving everything for Hoenn!
No matter what, it should be him who tames Groudon. If Groudon wakes up in the middle of the process, the risk will be borne by Steven.
"Mammon is my son. If a son is not well educated, it is the fault of his father. The way he is now is my responsibility, no matter what..."
Giovanni's tone was very low, and his eyes were sad and stubborn.
"I'm going to defeat him! I'm going to make him return to his former self, no matter the cost!"
Giovanni's tone was extremely firm, so firm that it made Steven and others tremble in their hearts. What kind of belief was this?
"So, let me do it! I will bear all the risks alone."
"For alliance and justice!"
Giovanni's voice is deafening!
Steven opened his mouth at Giovanni's words, but remained silent.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Master Giovanni."
Wallace looked sincere. Thinking back to when Giovanni hadn't come yet, he even had some doubts about Giovanni.
After all, his son is a senior executive of the Rockets, and it is hard for him as a father not to be suspicious.
But after this period of contact, Wallace really wanted to slap himself twice! !
Damn you! You even doubt Master Giovanni? Are you even human?!
"Groudon..."
Giovanni took two steps forward, looking at the fiery red giant beast sleeping in the magma, and the corners of his lips rose slightly invisibly.
The legendary creator of land, the Lord of the fiery earth, should have a good compatibility with me.
At this moment, Giovanni had his back to Steven and the others, and the curve of his mouth gradually filled with strong malice.
He threw the advanced ball in his hand directly at Groudon.
According to Mammon, the sleeping Groudon would most likely not resist, so he wanted to find this opportunity to subdue Groudon.
This is the best opportunity!
This is the legendary "Overlord of the Earth". After all, when cornered, Steven might think of putting Groudon into a Poké Ball and taking him away.
Just in case, Giovanni brought this up in advance and was the one who put Groudon into the Poké Ball.
Compared to having the league champion take Groudon away, it is of course more appropriate for Giovanni to do it.
After all, it has to be said that Steven Cynthia Dantei and others are still very outstanding. If the opportunity is right, they may really be recognized by Groudon.
So to be on the safe side, let him take this 'risk'!
The advanced ball drew a perfect parabola and landed directly on Groudon. In an instant, Groudon's entire huge body turned into red light and was absorbed into the advanced ball.
Goal!
Can it be successful?!
Seeing this scene, Steven and the others all looked a little nervous.
Especially the girl Nemona, she clenched her fists and stared at the Poké Ball floating in the air.
Drop~
The Poké Ball swayed in mid-air.
Ding~
The next moment, with a ding sound, the Poké Ball froze.
Successfully conquered!
Leon and others were extremely surprised. Was it successful just like that?
With a whoosh, the Beedrill flew past the advanced ball and returned to Giovanni with the advanced ball.
Giovanni took the high-end ball and couldn't help but smile with satisfaction on his face.
Although he was also very happy, after listening to Mammon's introduction of Groudon and Kyogre's current situation, he knew that this was only the first step.
"It worked, everyone."
Giovanni turned around and smiled at Steven and the others.
"Congratulations, Master Giovanni."
Steven was still in a somewhat delicate mood.
The three super ancient legends, these are the Pokémon in the historical legends of the Hoenn region, but now Kyogre has been captured by Mammon.
Groudon was also captured by Giovanni, leaving only the Sky Dragon Rayquaza...
"That's awesome, senior! This is Groudon!" Nemona looked very excited. She was extremely excited at the moment.
This was the first time she saw someone capture a legendary Pokémon!
No, no, after she returns to Padia, she must look for clues about legendary Pokémon. She is very interested in legendary Pokémon now!
Of course, the main reason was the battle in Larousse City, which really made her see the huge natural gap between ordinary Pokémon and legendary Pokémon.
Those beings at the top of the world's Pokémon food chain are truly terrifying, but at the same time, they are also extremely desirable.
"It's just temporarily contained in the ball. The Poké Ball can't restrain Groudon. If you can't get Groudon's approval, it doesn't count as being captured."
Giovanni shook his head, extremely sober and calm.
"Indeed, but the first step has been completed. As long as Groudon isn't that extreme, you, Gym Leader Giovanni, do have a chance to truly subdue Groudon."
Leon still approved of it, but he also felt that Giovanni still had a good chance.
If it wasn't inappropriate, he would have been very aware of throwing the ball at Groudon just now.
Of course, the premise is that Groudon is not that extreme, otherwise...
Think about it, Giovanni was sleeping peacefully late at night, and Groudon in the Poké Ball woke up and found himself in the ball. In anger, it broke through the Poké Ball, and Giovanni died on the spot in his sleep.
That would be horrible!
"Champion Steven, next, our top priority is to quickly find Mammon's location."
Giovanni nodded, then looked at Steven and said in a deep voice.
"good!"
Steven nodded. Of course he knew this, and it was urgent.
The longer the time drags on, the greater the risk for Giovanni.
…
In Catlin's villa in Lilycove City.
Mammon smiled as he looked at the message on his phone.
"What's wrong? Any good news?"
Catlin placed the fruit platter on the coffee table in front of Mammon, brushed her hands elegantly across her hips, and slowly sat down next to Mammon and asked curiously.
"Groudon has been captured by Old Den, and the Hoenn Alliance is looking for the location of our base." Mammon said with a smile.
That's right, Giovanni just sent him the latest news.
Upon hearing this, Catlin raised her beautiful eyebrows.
"The Hoenn Alliance has been completely toyed with by you and your son."
Catlin picked up the water cup on the coffee table and took a sip, smiling faintly.
The Hoenn Alliance never dreamed that the method they thought of was actually the result of being guided, and the hope of defeating Mammon was completely non-existent.
Even if we take a step back, Groudon without the Scarlet Orb would never be a match for Primal Kyogre.
If Giovanni suddenly turned against them during this battle, the Hoenn Alliance would be doomed.
Of course, Catlin also knew that it was impossible for Giovanni to turn against them at this time, otherwise it would be meaningless except to stimulate the mentality of Steven and others.
Because of this battle, the Hoenn Alliance had absolutely no chance of winning.
"That's not so exaggerated. I didn't expect that Steven would really give this opportunity to Old Man."
Mammon crossed his legs in interest, but unfortunately he couldn't see the scene.
Otherwise, he really wanted to know how Giovanni "snatched" the opportunity to capture Groudon from Steven.
After all, as the champion of the Hoenn League, it is reasonable for Steven to have the opportunity to subdue the sleeping Groudon.
"So are we going to 'respond'?"
Catlin peeled a grape with her beautiful, slender fingers, handed it to Mammon, and asked softly.
"Of course~" Mammon opened his mouth and bit it.
Feeling the touch of her fingers and Mammon's lips, Catlin blinked her beautiful and bright eyes.
"It's time to let them see our true power." Mammon grinned.
"And this is also a good opportunity to take care of Zinna's problem."
The battle between land and sea is just the right time for Zinna to lure out Rayquaza, but I don't know if Zinna can live up to the expectations.
"So when is it going to be scheduled?"
Catlin peeled another grape and looked at Mammon with anticipation.
Watching Mammon eat his grapes, she felt warm and happy.
"Tonight is when the Millennium Comet will arrive. Let's see if this little guy will wake up."
Mammon looked at the purple crystal on the table. Mammon was still very interested in the little guy Jirachi.
"Hmm~" Catlin bowed lightly.
If Mammon himself does not want to be exposed, it will not be easy for the Hoenn Alliance to find Mammon.
It was night time. Tonight was the day when the Millennium Comet would arrive. On a coastal hill in Lilycove City.
Mammon and the other two were sitting here at the moment, with the picnic mat spread out and the crystal where Jirachi was sleeping placed on it.
"Legend has it that beautiful singing can wake Jirachi up. Lille, I'm leaving it to you."
Mammon looked at the beautiful white comet appearing in the night sky and smiled at Lille.
"Yeah~ Leave it to me!"
Lille was full of confidence and took out the Sun Flute from her bag, while the big bat beside her had a resentful look in his eyes.
Obviously, the Sun Flute and the Moon Flute are its 'exclusive' props!
But Lille obviously didn't see this scene, she put the Sun Flute to her lips.
The beautiful and melodious sound of the flute slowly came, like a clear and clean rushing stream, purifying the negative emotions in people's hearts.
The beautiful sound of the flute flowed slowly in the night sky, and the thousand-year-old comet was like the brightest and most dazzling star in the night sky. But what people could not see was that the white comet energy was scattered bit by bit and was all absorbed by Jirachi's purple crystal stone.
A shining white light shone from the stone, and the sleeping stone slowly floated up.
"It really worked!"
Feeling the changes in the Sleeping Stone, Lille stopped playing the flute and looked at the Sleeping Stone in surprise and joy.
Jirachi, the legendary wishing star who can grant any wish!
The white light became more and more dazzling, and a yellow-white little guy was transformed from the sleeping stone, and slowly opened his bright big eyes.
"So cute~!"
Lille's eyes lit up.
This Jirachi is indeed extremely cute. Its body is very petite, only about 0.3 meters tall. Its head is like a star, with three green wishing papers on the three pointed corners, and two ribbons like wings on its back.
Its body is white with a black "thin line" on its abdomen, and its short arms and legs make it extremely cute.
"MmmMammon!"
As soon as Jirachi woke up, he quickly looked around, and then his gaze fixed on Mammon. His big eyes suddenly narrowed into a crescent shape and slowly floated towards Mammon.
She threw herself on Mammon's neck and rubbed him affectionately, just like a spoiled little kitten.
Seeing this scene, Lille and Catlin's expressions changed instantly. Isn't this really too cute?!
And it's a universal wishing machine that can make wishes come true!
"Mammon-mammon~ I'm awake."
Jirachi's crisp and tender telepathy is like that of a child whose gender cannot be determined.
It is very close to Mammon. After all, when it was not fully awake, it was Mammon who often chatted with it to relieve its boredom and provided it with energy.
"Congratulations, Jirachi."
Mammon smiled and held Jirachi's armpits with both hands, pulled it out from his neck, and held it high.
Jirachi looked at Mammon innocently and cutely, so adorable.
Then, the lovely wishing star said his first 'wish' after waking up.
"Mammon~ I want to ride a big fish."
"ah?"
Mammon was stunned. Are you serious? Kyogre might not agree.
"What's wrong? Mammon, you promised me." Jirachi tilted his head.
"I want to ride a big fish. Someone told me that it feels great to ride a big fish." Jirachi said seriously.
"Who told you that?" Mammon was really stunned this time.
"Manaphy told me."
