Chapter 269: Flabébé's Evolution
Ryan placed the Master Ball on Victini's head, and Victini transformed into a red light and entered the Master Ball. Lillie watched this scene and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Ryan."
Ryan also looked at the Master Ball, knowing that he had added another trump card. Although Victini looked cute, it had to be said that a Pokémon that could live for nearly a thousand years would not be weak.
It was just that Victini was timid by nature, so it didn't battle often. Looking at the data provided by the system, Ryan was speechless when he saw Victini's level. Victini was at least a Tier-2 deity, and its mastery of its own Victory origin was quite good, but its level was only level 50, not even level 100!
However, this also reflected that Victini's potential was very good. Besides Manaphy, Victini was the only other Pokémon Ryan had ever seen that had already mastered its origin before reaching the maximum level. However, Manaphy is an exception; only those who have mastered its origin can be called Manaphy.
Speaking of this, Ryan remembered that he had asked his subordinates to capture a few Phione, but there had been no news. He also wanted to try using the Splash Plate and the system to see if he could evolve a Phione into a Manaphy.
Just as he thought of evolution, Flabébé emitted light. Ryan and Lillie looked at Flabébé in shock, and even Xerneas was astonished: it was evolving!
Ryan quickly used the system to access Flabébé's status. The panel clearly showed that Flabébé had successfully advanced to a Tier-1 deity!
In other words, Flabébé's domain was about to take shape! However, the moment he thought of Flabébé's origin, Ryan's expression changed instantly, and he shouted, "Get out of here!"
With that, Ryan picked up Lillie and jumped onto Xerneas. Xerneas also sensed the unusual power and immediately took off running, reaching mid-air before staring intently at Flabébé.
The crimson dragon vein power continued to flow into Flabébé's body, and Flabébé comfortably closed its eyes. The Eternal Flower gradually withered, merging into Flabébé's body. An ominous black power enveloped Flabébé, even dyeing its evolutionary light black.
The black light gradually receded, revealing Flabébé—no, Florges—in the center. Unlike other ordinary Florges forms, which have clusters of flowers around their necks and four hanging buds, Florges in its Eternal Flower form has two petals of the Eternal Flower extending from its neck, wrapping around its shoulders and arms like a shawl, exuding elegance and nobility.
The evolved Florges curiously examined its new form, and its domain took shape: the Domain of Calamity!
Moreover, the power of the dragon vein continued to flow into Florges, and her Calamity Domain gradually expanded. Plants encased within it withered and died, and even ordinary Pokémon collapsed helplessly upon contact with it. Those who tried to escape encountered various obstacles and were unable to break free.
Ryan quickly shouted, "Florges, that's enough! Stop the Calamity Domain!"
But Florges delivered bad news: the dragon vein's power continued to flow into her body, and now she couldn't stop even if she wanted to!
Ryan covered his face: Sure enough, a problem had arisen!
Xerneas, understanding the situation, directly activated its Life Domain, forcefully shattering Florges's Calamity Domain. Florges was finally able to stop absorbing the dragon vein's power.
The dragon vein's power, after being absorbed by Florges, had been largely depleted and could no longer cause any significant disturbance. Xerneas landed on the wasteland ravaged by the Calamity Domain.
Ryan summoned Florges down, and at the same time, called out Victini. It was time for everyone to witness Xerneas's power!
Xerneas lightly stomped its hoof, and its Life Domain instantly expanded, enveloping the wasteland. As the Life Domain took effect, life gradually returned to the wasteland; trees, plants, and Pokémon slowly returned to their original forms. Even the power of the dragon vein, under the influence of Xerneas's Life Domain, gradually changed from purplish-red to green.
Xerneas stomped its hoof again, and the power of the green dragon vein split into a line, moving towards the other side of Eindoak Town, towards the ruins of the desolate Kingdom of the Vale.
Victini, seeing this, was immediately moved to tears, murmuring as tears streamed down its face. Nearly a thousand years! It had finally waited for this day!
The green dragon vein power flowed into the Kingdom of the Vale, where water gradually appeared, and vegetation slowly grew on the barren land. The desolation gradually dissipated, and the homeland of the People of the Vale returned to its former beauty.
Ryan and Lillie smiled at each other. Ryan said, "Finally solved! So, shall we explore Unova, or go straight back to Pallet Town?"
Lillie shook her head and said, "Next, let's go to Sinnoh. I know, Ryan, you actually want to go to the Distortion World. It's just that you didn't have a way to stay there for long before, so you never considered going. And didn't Giratina mention it? Plus, we still have to collect the Plate Fragments. You, sometimes being a little more honest wouldn't hurt!"
Looking at Lillie's expression, Ryan smiled and said, "You understand me best."
Lillie rolled her eyes at Ryan. Ryan knew that saying anything now would be superfluous. A deep kiss followed, and the two embraced passionately.
Victini watched curiously what Ryan and Lillie were doing. Florges smiled and covered Victini's eyes, saying, "Children shouldn't look."
Xerneas, standing nearby, thought to itself: A child over a thousand years old? Although Victini was rather innocent, in terms of age, it was older than most legendary Pokémon—strictly speaking, an elder!
Victini, its vision obstructed, had no choice but to be led away by Florges, who covered its eyes and held its hand. For the time being, space and time were given to the two of them.
Ryan secretly gave Florges a thumbs up: Florges, you did a fantastic job!
