Raikou's appearance was somewhat similar to the saber-toothed tigers of Earth's ancient times. It had golden fur, strong limbs, sharp fangs, and a light blue tail shaped like a lightning bolt.
Besides these, its most impressive feature was the x-shaped whisker under its black steel-like head crest.
In terms of temperament, compared to the majestic Entei and the calm Suicune, Raikou undoubtedly looked more ferocious.
In fact, from its eyes and sharp claws, it wasn't hard to see that its temper was also more irascible and dangerous.
And to lurk in the shadows, not showing itself rashly, and waiting for an opening to deliver a fatal blow, was also more in line with the habits of predators like tigers and leopards. It could be said that it was quite fitting for its design.
Since it was the first time he had seen one in person, Natsui couldn't help but take out his Pokédex and point it at it.
Pokédex: Beep. Raikou, the Thunder Pokémon. An Electric type. One of the legendary Pokémon of the Johto region, a member of the Legendary Beasts. It is said that Raikou is a ferocious Pokémon that descended with lightning. It has the speed of lightning within its body. Because it carries rain clouds on its back, it can release lightning at any time. It runs across the land while releasing the surging power in its body in the form of lightning strikes. The long howl it emits, like a thunderclap, will shake the air and the earth like thunder striking the ground.
From the Pokédex's introduction, Raikou certainly lived up to its legendary beast name.
But then again, in such a high-intensity battle, it was really difficult for Raikou to hide itself. It was impossible for it to stay out of it. With the battle becoming more intense and the area of effect wider, being forced to show itself was only a matter of time.
But what surprised Natsui was that as soon as it appeared, it immediately joined the fray, directly taking on Zapdos.
Clearly, during its previous lurking and peeking, Raikou had already observed for a long time and had realized that these three Pokémon were after them.
So, out of instinct or a sense of crisis, it had taken the initiative to join forces with Entei and Suicune to fight against the three legendary birds.
And the reason it went for Zapdos, Natsui guessed, was probably because they were both Electric-type Pokémon. After sensing the high-powered current in the other's body, it wanted to compete with Zapdos to see who was superior.
But in any case, with Raikou's addition, the situation on the field instantly became three against three. With the numbers no longer at a disadvantage, the legendary beasts had finally brought the battle back to a level playing field.
The battle continued.
The six legendary Pokémon were entangled in a fierce battle on the field. And due to the energy leaking from the battle, the weather here had become extremely strange.
As a strong wind blew, amidst the flashing lightning and roaring thunder, a heavy rain mixed with ice crystals suddenly poured down.
They shuttled and jumped in the rain. And in the continuous explosions, large areas of crystal peeled off from the tower, which seemed as if it could collapse at any moment.
At this time, the sky had completely darkened. The rain and snow were getting heavier, and the visibility was getting lower and lower, to the point where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
Gardevoir used its psychic power to create an air wall above Natsui's head, preventing the rain from falling on its trainer. Nevertheless, the cold air still made him tighten his clothes.
But because it was too dark, at this moment, not only could Natsui not see the situation on the field clearly, but even the battling Pokémon could only vaguely see the general shape of the others.
And this added a lot of difficulty to the battle.
Just then, with a loud 'CRACK', another bolt of lightning fell from the clouds, streaking across the sky and briefly illuminating the entire battlefield.
With the help of this lightning, Natsui quickly surveyed the battlefield situation.
The three legendary birds had been with him for a long time. Even if their personalities made them unwilling to submit to each other, they were, after all, under the same trainer and had been together for a long time. Therefore, in battle, they would still occasionally cooperate subconsciously and pull off a few good combos.
In contrast, the three legendary beasts, although they were working together against the legendary birds, were generally fighting on their own, with no tacit understanding. Sometimes, they even had to dodge the attacks of the other two beasts to avoid being hit by their moves.
But…
Although they still had a slight upper hand, Natsui was still very nervous.
Originally, in a three-on-two situation, this battle could be said to be a sure win. But at this moment, he was really not sure about the final result.
After all, Pokémon were intelligent creatures. If they realized the situation was not right and the three legendary beasts wanted to escape, even if the three legendary birds gave chase, they would probably only be able to stop one or two of them, and it was destined to be impossible to capture all of them.
Sigh, I just hope these three guys are the stubborn type who would rather fight than flee.
After the lightning passed, the weather suddenly changed. The rain stopped abruptly, and in its place, heavy snow began to fall, and flaming meteorites fell from the sky.
RUMBLE!
The sound of the battle traveled far, all the way to the Pokémon Center.
At this moment, Professor Oak, his assistant John, Nurse Joy, Officer Jenny, and Lisa and Erika were standing on a high slope, all looking towards the crystal tower.
From their position, they could vaguely see three bird-like Pokémon, occasionally flying in and out of the clouds, spraying fire, lightning, and frost onto the ground. And on the crystal tower, there were also three Pokémon fighting back against the sky.
The female TV reporter was also watching the battlefield excitedly on the side. At the same time, the cameraman was also using his camera, trying to record this battle.
Unfortunately, although they could vaguely make out what kind of Pokémon they were, because they were too far away, even if they zoomed in, they could only see some blurry shadows.
Seeing that she couldn't make out anything, the female reporter had an idea and quickly walked up to Professor Oak, holding out her microphone to him.
"Professor Oak, may I ask why the three legendary birds of the Kanto region are fighting with the three legendary beasts of the Johto region?"
This question had been bothering her a lot. After all, for these six legendary Pokémon to gather and fight was something that had never happened before.
As soon as this news was broadcast, it would definitely blow up the ratings.
But unfortunately, the video quality was poor, and the specific situation there couldn't be seen clearly. Even if it were broadcast, it would just be a blurry picture.
Sigh, if only I could get a little closer.
Although she really wanted to, because of the precedent set by Natsui and the others, who had rashly entered the crystal tower, Officer Jenny had now strictly forbidden anyone from getting close to the crystal forest again.
"Well…"
Faced with the reporter's question, Professor Oak thought for a moment and could only give a relatively plausible explanation.
"Since Entei was created by Molly's illusion, I think the Unown can certainly also read other people's memories and create other Pokémon out of thin air. And the three legendary birds should be what the Unown created after reading Ash and the others' memories, to fight against Molly's three legendary beasts…"
