The two Zygardes in their 50% Forms glanced at one another.
Then they slammed into each other.
A burst of white light exploded forth!
Within that white light, the two Zygardes merged, their bodies undergoing tremendous change.
In the sky above the Ultra World, where no light existed at all…
The two 50% Form Zygardes fused together within the radiance.
Their aura rose higher and higher, stirring up wave after wave of violent air currents that swept across the entire Ultra World.
Inside the white light…
The fusion of the two 50% Form Zygardes was finally complete.
A blinding radiance erupted, like a sun itself.
Then the evolutionary white light slowly faded.
Zygarde's brand-new form appeared before everyone.
The hearts of viewers across the myriad dimensions shook violently.
Zygarde no longer looked anything like before.
It resembled a Gundam-like giant.
Mighty and overbearing, over ten meters tall.
A pair of wings had grown from each side of its back, four in total, hanging down like cloth strips.
The tip of the left wing was blue.
The main color of its body was black, with green spots scattered across it.
The tip of the right wing was red.
Its body was also marked with hexagonal patterns.
It floated there in midair.
Waves of energy rose from beneath its feet, wrapping around its body.
Faint invisible chains flickered around it, like chains of order representing the world's very laws and order.
[This is the divine beast that governs the order of the world's rules and bears the responsibility of watching over the ecology of all things.]
[This is its Complete Form. Only when the world's rules and order have suffered a major problem does it take on this form, setting chaos right and returning the world's rules and order to their proper course.]
[Because Necrozma swallowed the authorities of daylight and night—]
[The world no longer has either day or night.]
[Order has been gravely affected, and so it has taken on its Complete Form.]
[This is…]
[The Divine Beast of Order—]
[Zygarde.]
Looking at Zygarde's Complete Form, the viewers of the myriad anime dimensions could barely believe their eyes.
Was this really the same little cell-like creature from earlier, the kind a six-year-old child could have squashed to death?!
Zygarde floated in the sky, showing no visible aura, and yet viewers across the dimensions felt thorns pricking their backs, their hearts trembling violently.
Looking at it felt like facing an entire world.
To oppose it would be like opposing the very rules and order that sustained the whole world.
Its appearance made quite a few top experts from the various dimensions go pale.
Even knowing this was only a video—
The instant Zygarde appeared, their hearts still tightened in fear, and they instinctively unleashed their own powers, just to feel a little safer.
In the Digimon world…
Homeostasis watched Zygarde, and a storm of emotion surged in its heart.
It was the god of the Digimon world.
Its duty was also to maintain the ecological balance of the Digital World.
But before Zygarde, what was it worth?
The faint chains flickering around Zygarde—
Those were chains of order, symbols of the world's rules and order.
Different laws formed the framework of a world.
And the many rules of order formed the foundation of a world's stability.
What exactly were the rules of order?
They were the natural development of the world.
The laws that all things must follow.
The rising in the east and setting in the west of the sun.
The moon rising after sunset.
The changing of the four seasons.
Birth, aging, sickness, and death.
The land lying beneath the sky, and the sea lying below the land…
These were all rules of order.
Without such rules, the world would descend into total chaos.
Today might be summer, and tomorrow winter.
The land might float in the sky.
The heavens might crouch beneath the earth.
Life and death would be disordered—something might be alive one second, dead the next, and alive again a second later.
If a world had no order, it would look exactly like that.
And yet—
The Digital World had no such things, no laws, no rules of order.
Its inhabitants were merely strings of data.
The so-called "ecological balance" of the Digital World was just this: once data redundancy became too severe and overloaded the Digital World's server, a great purge would be activated, deleting Ultimate-level Digimon because they consumed the most data.
"This is what a true Divine Beast of Order looks like, maintaining the world's order."
Homeostasis was full of envy.
Their Digital World had no laws.
That was why it could never evolve into a true world.
In the Pokémon world—
The Trainers stared at Zygarde's imposing and awe-inspiring form with wide eyes.
So this was Zygarde's true posture.
Thinking back to those dense green lights that had appeared throughout the world earlier—
Those "Cells" Zygarde used to monitor the world—
Professor Oak and the other researchers had never imagined that forests, lakes, mountains, land, and even the backs of humans all hid Zygarde Cells.
This was simply too overpowered!!
Didn't that mean that before it, there was no privacy in the world at all?!
The Trainers and Island Kahunas of Alola were excited.
There was hope now.
Zygarde had appeared.
It was going to set the world's broken order right.
It was going to restore daylight and night to the world plunged into eternal darkness.
It was going to rescue Lunala and Solgaleo!!
In the video…
Zygarde and Necrozma stared at each other from afar.
Tit for tat.
Their auras rose from their bodies.
Waves of energy surged around them.
Boom!!
Their pressure burst forth and slammed into one another.
At the point where they collided, sparks and electric arcs crackled wildly, and two visible fields of force clashed head-on.
Where those twisted fields met, a barren stone mountain was lifted into the air, shattered inch by inch, and from its summit downward, disintegrated into dust before breaking apart completely.
In less than half a second…
The entire mountain was gone.
Under the distortion of those clashing fields, the surface of the earth was peeled up and similarly erased at the material level.
Just as the audience was struck with horror—
The clash of aura came quickly, and vanished just as quickly.
It ended all of a sudden.
If not for the enormous crater left where that mountain had stood—
They would have thought it had all been an illusion.
Zygarde and Necrozma were both blazing with battle intent.
At their level, a contest of pure aura meant nothing.
The two immense fields of pressure filling the sky above the Ultra World disappeared.
And yet—
The atmosphere grew even more murderous, even more cold and oppressive, suffocating in its gravity.
The air seemed to have solidified.
Dust that should have been blown away instead hung suspended.
A breeze swept through and scattered the suspended dust.
It was as though it had also slightly eased the killing intent in the air.
A green gleam flashed through Zygarde's eyes.
Rumble—!
The ground beneath Necrozma suddenly split apart.
A vine made entirely of rock lashed upward, trying to bind it.
Necrozma was ready for it. Its eyes narrowed, and pressure burst forth.
The entire earthen vine cracked inch by inch, turning to powder under its terrifying psychic force.
But it wasn't over.
The earth trembled.
A thunderous rumbling rose, as though something was about to burst out from underground.
Necrozma's expression changed slightly.
It kicked off and leapt high into the air.
The entire ground split apart, and countless bamboo-shoot-like spikes pushed up from below, densely packed, covering the whole land beneath Necrozma.
The instant it left the ground—
Anyone with trypophobia went pale at the sight.
Those countless earthen shoots suddenly began growing wildly, becoming enormous earth-vines bursting from the land.
Like one monstrous tentacle after another, they shot toward the heavens.
Every single earth-vine carried horrifying power, as if it could tear apart the sky.
Their speed was incomparably fast.
"Hiss… what kind of move is this?"
Professor Oak's pupils tightened violently.
Another move he had never seen before.
Vines…
Was it a Grass-type move?
[Zygarde is a Dragon- and Ground-type divine beast.]
[This move is called—]
[Land's Wrath.]
[A Ground-type move that can command the power of the earth and possesses terrifying might.]
[This is one of Zygarde's four signature moves.]
Not a Grass-type move after all—
But a Ground-type move.
Land's Wrath.
And one of four signature moves.
Everyone was stunned.
Four signature moves?!
That was insane!
All the Legendary Pokémon ranked before had only ever had one signature move.
Some Legendary Pokémon hadn't even possessed a signature move of their own.
Yet Zygarde had four!
Forget Professor Oak and the other Pokémon researchers—
Even the various ranked Legendary Pokémon quietly watching the video were startled.
Four signature moves?!
But after sensing the aura that Complete Form Zygarde gave off, transcending ordinary First-Tier Legendary Pokémon—
A quasi-Main God-level existence—
They all quickly accepted it.
First-Tier Legendary Pokémon and Main God-level beings simply belonged to entirely different realms.
In all directions, countless earth-vines shot up into the sky, caging it in.
Like a birdcage, they trapped Necrozma in the middle.
Then, like a tsunami, they surged in from every direction, suppressing it.
From below, endless earth-vines also rose from the ground, trying to strangle it and block off its retreat.
Under this move—
There was nowhere for Necrozma to run, neither skyward nor underground.
"ROAR!"
Necrozma let out a roar, releasing a sonic attack.
In an instant, like a chain reaction—
Vine after vine shattered apart.
The next second, the broken vines regenerated instantly and once again twisted toward Necrozma.
Another roar, another wave of sonic force—
And again the vines broke.
This time, Necrozma gave them no chance to regenerate.
Terrifying psychic power burst forth as well.
It swept through the sky like a grinding millstone, turning those shattered vines into powder.
Even if they tried to regenerate, under that psychic force they were ground apart again and again.
Thus Land's Wrath was broken.
But—
A sharp attack came from behind.
Greninja and Charizard.
Water gathered in Greninja's hand, condensing into a giant Water Shuriken.
The Water Shuriken kept growing larger and larger, soon reaching dozens of meters in size, before shrinking again into a several-meter-wide disk.
It had turned gold, as if plated in molten gold.
Charizard caught that golden shuriken in its claws.
Dong~!
White light shone from Charizard's claws, while its tail flame burned fiercely.
The power of its Dragon Claw was infused into the golden Water Shuriken, and then it hurled it with all its might.
Caught completely off guard—
Necrozma had no time to react and was blasted flying.
It was enraged.
Just as it was about to retaliate, every hair on its body suddenly stood on end.
A deadly danger had arrived.
Countless arrows of light rained down upon it.
[Thousand Arrows]
[One of Zygarde's signature moves.]
"ROAR!!!"
For the first time ever, Necrozma's eyes showed grave caution.
It roared, and the black crystals embedded throughout Solgaleo's body—
The main body of Necrozma itself—
Now began reflecting light like a mirror.
The reflected light first appeared from the black crystals, then spread across Solgaleo's whole body.
In Dusk Mane Form, all of Necrozma's body began shining with reflective brilliance.
Laser beams burst out from everywhere, refracting from every part of it.
No blind spots.
Every part of its body was emitting laser rays.
Prismatic Laser.
Necrozma's signature move.
Boom boom boom boom!
Those countless refracted laser beams collided head-on with the rain of light-arrows.
In an instant, mushroom clouds and flames bloomed all across the sky.
Deafening explosions rang out without pause.
It lasted for more than half a minute before finally subsiding.
Soon…
When the smoke and dust cleared, Necrozma's body was covered in cracks.
The hearts of all the viewers shook violently.
That incredibly powerful Necrozma—
Had actually lost the clash of moves.
So strong!!
Zygarde was so strong!
"Nekrozma, you've already lost! Give Solgaleo and Lunala back!"
Ash shouted angrily at it.
"Give them back? They originally came from me. I'm merely taking back my own power!"
A majestic voice spread across the sky.
Or rather—
Necrozma was using telepathy, making its voice ring in everyone's minds.
Across the anime dimensions, all the viewers were confused.
Solgaleo and Lunala came from it?
It was merely reclaiming its own power?
W-What exactly did that mean?!
Not just the viewers were stunned—
Ash was too.
The black crystals embedded throughout Solgaleo's body shattered, transforming into black fluid like a swamp and covering Solgaleo's entire body.
Then…
Solgaleo's body twisted and changed, reverting into a black creature.
Necrozma.
Its ordinary form.
Neither Dusk Mane Form—
Nor Dawn Wings Form.
Which also meant—
It had already completely devoured both Solgaleo and Lunala.
