Dynamaxing is a special ability that can only be activated in certain areas of the Pokemon world, which aligned perfectly with this discovery.
The only odd thing was that Larry didn't have a Gigantamax wristband, yet his Pokemon could still Gigantamax.
When a Pokemon Gigantamaxes, its size, weight, and height increase dramatically, its HP grows, and all its moves become Gigantamax versions.
This was an incredible sight and a game-changer for Larry's journey.
Lapras Gigantamax is a formidable water and ice-type creature known for its incredible water storage ability.
Originally, after many days of sailing on a dragon, Lapras only reached S-level strength.
However, upon becoming Gigantamax, its power soared significantly.
In this form, the dragon gathers ice particles around its body to form a massive ring, which it uses to break through icebergs effortlessly while swimming gracefully.
Remarkably, its carapace is so stable and comfortable that it can carry over 5,000 people without any shaking, making the Gigantamax Lapras truly colossal, so much so that it appears like a small mountain to onlookers, providing a strong sense of security.
"Is this your Nen beast too?!" someone exclaimed in disbelief.
"No! Why did your Nen beast get so huge?!"
Beyond's eyes narrowed as his jaw nearly dropped.
He hadn't expected Larry to have such a massive Pokemon.
After rubbing his eyes in surprise, he realized this enormous nen best was actually the transformed version of the dragon Larry usually rode.
Suddenly, the Gigantamax dragon let out a powerful roar, sending shockwaves crashing through the giant ice waves and piercing the creatures lurking behind them.
With a series of sharp cracking sounds, the enormous ice barrier shattered completely, revealing the creatures emerging from the sea beyond.
The massive ice block, towering about 100 meters high, quickly filled with cracks and crumbled into countless ice crystals, releasing a bitterly cold gust of frost-laden wind.
Without the icy shield, the scene behind became clear, and what caught everyone's attention first was a colossal tentacle.
This blue tentacle, covered in spots of varying shades and coated with translucent mucus, was as large as an office building, dwarfing the ship nearby.
The team members couldn't help but hold their breath, staring wide-eyed at the enormous appendages.
A look of pure horror filled his eyes, a reaction anyone would have when faced with a creature far larger than themselves.
What they had just witnessed might have seemed like a natural disaster, like a massive tsunami, but those tentacles belonged to a living being.
Until now, none of them could have imagined that such a gigantic creature actually existed in the world.
Among the group, Larry remained the calmest, and his composure came from his own confidence and strength.
Using his illustration ability, he assessed the creature's power and realized it was at an S+ level.
The creature's immense strength was largely due to its massive, hill-like body, its sheer size naturally granting it overwhelming power.
The S+ level Pokemon is undeniably powerful, but it still doesn't pose a real threat to him.
He has several Pokemon capable of taking down opponents single-handedly.
Not to mention Marshadow, Genesect, who sit comfortably in the SS range.
Even Tyranitar, Gengar, Ditto, and surprisingly, Meowth can handle enemies on their own.
But now, it's Dragonite's time to shine.
A single tentacle emerging is just the beginning.
As panic spreads among the onlookers, the massive body hidden beneath the sea finally surfaces completely.
It's enormous, like a small mountain, but blue in color.
This huge marine creature, sturdy and mountain-like, now stands fully revealed, its bulging body anchored in the center with wild tentacles thrashing all around.
Countless thick, mucus-covered tentacles slap and wave over the sea's surface, stirring up massive tsunamis.
Amid this relentless storm, the tiny boat can only drift helplessly, tossed by the waves.
Everyone on board can feel the powerful movement beneath them as the boat rocks violently from side to side.
Without careful balance, anyone could easily be thrown overboard.
Suddenly, the giant creature let's out a deep, soul-piercing roar.
It looks like an enormous octopus!
"Hey, hey, hey, is this for real? How can there be an octopus this huge?" Ging exclaimed, his eyes fixed on the creature in awe.
An octopus this colossal was unheard of, and he couldn't miss the chance to study it closely.
As for any real danger? Ging could confidently assure himself there's none.
With Larry by his side, life-threatening threats were simply out of the question.
This octopus was massive, its presence overwhelming, but Ging sensed its aura was roughly on par with the ant king before its evolution.
That's no small feat, it's truly powerful.
Without Larry's protection, the people on the boat would likely have been crushed by this monster.
But thankfully, there are no "what ifs" here.
With Larry around, Ging could afford to appreciate this giant octopus calmly.
He wondered what it must eat to grow so large, truly, it was a creature as massive as a mountain.
A massive figure stretched across the sky and earth, casting a huge shadow that felt suffocating, making people's hearts skip a beat.
If you had to describe the feeling, it was like facing the Ant King before it evolved, but even more intimidating.
After all, the Ant King wasn't this enormous.
Among those present, only Larry, Ging, and Beyond remained composed.
Beyond, having encountered such colossal creatures before, stayed calm, and Larry, known for his steady demeanor and confidence, didn't waver either.
Their calmness gradually spread to the others, easing the initial panic and turning anxiety into a quiet steadiness.
Suddenly, the giant octopus extended countless tentacles, not toward the ship, its original target, but directly at the Gigantamax Dragon nearby.
From the octopus's perspective, the Dragon was a bigger threat and a more enticing target.
Each tentacle packed tremendous power; one could probably demolish a small mountain with ease.
Its massive body gave it incredible strength, capable of creating sonic booms just by swinging its limbs.
Even before the tentacles struck, the gusts of wind they whipped up churned the already stormy sea into a frenzy.
Watching this, Larry couldn't help but think of Ultraman, this monstrous octopus was a force of nature, and any careless move could unleash devastating damage.
Creatures this huge were not uncommon in the Dark Continent.
The Gigantamax Dragon faced the oncoming tentacles with a low hum, its ice-blue aura glowing intensely.
Suddenly, the sky lit up with vibrant, ribbon-like colors, the Aurora, dancing like a symphony across the atmosphere.
The temperature plunged sharply, transforming the environment into a frozen landscape.
Moisture stirred by the octopus's movements crystallized into countless snowflakes and ice shards in the air.
The glowing patterns swirling around the Dragon became wrapped in frost, and a powerful, majestic aura burst forth.
The Dragon's aura blazed brighter and brighter, releasing an endless surge of icy blue aura, ready to confront the looming threat.
