Pokémon: When the World Changed

Chapter 582 577: Triple Outrage

Boom, boom, boom!

On the field, the battle continued.

At that moment, Vibrava's body was completely enveloped in sand.

Its Levitate ability constantly influenced the surrounding sand, also granting it the capability to float.

At the same time, relying on its mastery over the wind, Vibrava controlled the sand dragon and fought fiercely in close combat against Hydreigon.

But that sand dragon was practically an immortal monster. Under those conditions, how could Hydreigon possibly stand against it?

"Damn it! What the hell is wrong with that Vibrava?"

Kevin's face was as gloomy as it could be. He had always thought that Charizard and Tyranitar were Ethan's strongest Pokémon.

But no one would have imagined that this Vibrava was the true hidden boss. Not even Tyranitar seemed capable of reaching that level!

"Ethan already said before: in a desert battlefield like this, Tyranitar isn't the strongest on his team either. Now it seems he was telling the truth."

A dragon messenger sighed while looking at Vibrava on the field; his expression had completely changed.

Even though Vibrava was only in its second evolutionary stage, it was far more terrifying than any Flygon!

"Flyyggnn!"

The leader of the Flygon flying in the air had that same feeling.

What kind of monster was that member of their own species? Although their lineage could flap their wings to stir up sandstorms, this was excessive!

Even he, as the leader of the Flygon, didn't know that their species could reach such a level.

On the ground, the other Dragon-type Pokémon showed expressions as if they had seen a ghost, and their gaze toward the Flygon clan had become cautious.

"Is it going to end?"

Suddenly, a dragon messenger murmured.

Instantly, the atmosphere throughout the place became deathly silent.

Was Kevin... going to lose?

And to a Vibrava, no less?

If someone had said it before the battle, who would have believed it?

Not only before the battle; even if someone now went out and said that a Vibrava had defeated a Hydreigon, they would probably be taken for madmen.

Kevin, naturally, noticed the expressions of the dragon messengers.

Immediately, a nameless fury surged within him.

Lose?

How could he possibly lose?

"Hydreigon, Outrage!"

As Kevin's voice fell, Hydreigon let out a roar.

Dragon-type energy instantly exploded throughout its body, and its eyes turned completely red.

At that moment, it seemed as if some seal inside Hydreigon had been broken.

A sinister aura began to emanate from its body, and bursts of dark energy swirled around it.

"What a terrifying aura... that Hydreigon..."

The dragon messengers were stunned.

Not only them; even the Pokémon present sensed the anomaly and adopted grave expressions.

Compared to humans, their senses were sharper. The aura emanating from Hydreigon filled them with genuine fear.

"I see... Outrage releases the wild nature of Dragon-type Pokémon. And when it comes to ferocity, Hydreigon is probably the most brutal of all Pokémon."

Ethan took a deep breath. Hydreigon's Outrage seemed far more powerful than that of other Pokémon.

But... with such a terrifying aura, could it control it?

Not only Ethan; all the dragon messengers watched Hydreigon closely.

"It's controlled it! Look at the eyes of the main head!"

With that shout, everyone looked and discovered that the eyes of the central head were clear and lucid.

However, the left head had completely red eyes, shrouded in darkness and twisting endlessly.

Evidently, Hydreigon had taken advantage of its three heads to transfer the side effect of the Outrage move to one of them, keeping the main head conscious.

"Hyydrreegg!"

After successfully activating the Outrage move, Hydreigon charged straight toward the sand dragon.

Boom, boom, boom!

The two forces collided violently once again.

But even with Outrage activated, Hydreigon was still being suppressed by the terrifying sand dragon, retreating continuously.

After that direct comparison, several dragon messengers inhaled sharply.

That sand dragon was truly terrifying. Vibrava, with that technique, was dominating Hydreigon even after it had used the Outrage move!

"Even this isn't enough?"

"Then... Hydreigon, activate the Second Outrage!"

Kevin's face turned ferocious. He spread his arms and practically roared the command.

"HYYDRREEGGG!"

In the air, Hydreigon responded with a deafening roar.

The right head lifted high and, after a powerful bellow, its eyes also turned blood-red.

Boom!

In an instant, Hydreigon's aura rose once again.

Dark energy swirled more intensely around it, and a suffocating pressure began to distort even the air around it.

"What... it can activate the Outrage move a second time?!"

At that moment, both the dragon messengers and the Pokémon stared wide-eyed at Hydreigon in the sky.

Its presence was far too terrifying. They had no doubt that if their own Pokémon entered the field, they would be torn apart instantly.

And the most terrifying thing of all...

Even after activating Outrage for the second time, Hydreigon's main head was still conscious.

"Hey... if each head represents one time it can use Outrage..."

"Doesn't that mean Hydreigon can activate the Outrage move a third time?"

Suddenly, a dragon messenger voiced that hypothesis, leaving the others stunned.

Just using Outrage a second time was already this terrifying. If it activated it a third time...

"That shouldn't be possible. Right now, the Second Outrage is based on two heads. If it activated a Third Outrage... it would probably turn into a monster with no reason left at all."

Thinking about it, a dragon messenger spoke uncertainly. But if it really did...

Just imagining it made several of them inhale in fear, unable to keep thinking about it.

"Hydreigon, Crunch!"

At that moment, Kevin also seemed slightly beside himself.

With his roar, Hydreigon rushed straight toward the sand dragon advancing forward.

Its two heads wrapped in dark energy extended forward, and a terrifying Dark-type energy began to gather, transforming into two gigantic dragon heads that opened their colossal jaws and bit directly at the sand dragon that was lunging toward them.
