	Victini flew past Absol to see just what an Ursa Minor was. It was greeted by a massive bear, with partially see-through bluish-purple fur and body. "Woah! That thing's far larger than a Wailord!" Victini came to a stop about a hundred feet away from it. Victini had to move backwards to maintain the distance. Victini noticed Absol come to a stop nearby to look at the massive creature. "That Ursa looks mad. As in, really mad."
Absol looked up at Victini. "How mad is really mad?" Absol was being sarcastic, but Victini didn't catch it.
"I'd say destroy the town mad. Maybe it just woke up on the wrong side of the-" A roar that would give even Exploud a run for its money both cut it off and sent it backward. "-cave?"
Absol got into a fighting position. "New plan: Don't let it reach town."
Victini started to get scared. "Easier said than done. I can't even get into its head, so no mental communication. Have a better plan than hit it until it leaves?"
Absol responded by running toward the Ursa. He leaped backwards when he got close, firing off Razor Wind. The attack hit, but had no effect on the Ursa. Growling, Absol used Quick Attack to get in close, and hit it with Night Slash. Rather, Absol sliced his sickle-like headpiece against the bear and it bounced off. Absol didn't even have the time to register the disbelief before it got swatted away by the Ursa Minor. Victini's eyes widened.
"Okay... My turn." Victini fired off Searing Shot, and when that did nothing it used Fire Blast and then Overheat. It heard the Guild running over to see what was going on, and Twilight teleported over as well.
"When Meloetta said Ursa Minor, I thought big bear. Can anything affect this thing?" Chatot was sounding legitimately scared. "We need to stop it from destroying the town, but we don't have enough room to try everything!"
Victini took a deep breath. "Absol couldn't do anything with Razor Wind or Night Slash, and my special attacks are doing nothing to it except possibly making it more angry." A loud roar confirmed that it was unharmed.
Twilight was shaking her head. "Ursa Minors have thick fur, but even beyond that they have a large resistance to pretty much anything that could harm them. I was able to get one to leave because it was a baby, but this one seems to be between Ursa Minor and Ursa Major. I don't think I can get it to leave by babying it. I don't know if we can get it to leave."
Lopunny thought for a second. "Can we hit it around?" When she saw the confused looks she clarified. "If we hit it hard enough, could we knock it back?"
Twilight considered. "i suppose that would work. You'd need to hit it really hard to even make it possible, but its worth a shot."
Lopunny nodded. "Good. Here's my plan. Chatot, you should-"
Victini interrupted. "One more shot." Without waiting for protests, Victini began to fly towards the Ursa. As it approached, its head ignited and the flames extended past its ears, making a flaming V in front of Victini's head.
Keldeo took a step forwards. "Sweet Arceus... I've never seen this attack, but I know what it is."
Chatot turned to it. "Are you going to share that information with the rest of us?"
Keldeo nodded. "Aside from a boosted Fusion Flare, that is the single strongest Fire-type move. That is V-Create."
Victini slammed into the Ursa's head at insanely high speeds, and the Ursa was knocked onto its back. Victini tumbled backward due to the collision, but it had far more control. It flew back towards the others grinning. "It worked! I have a headache, but it worked!"
Meloetta smiled. "Tell them that, and perhaps we will win this fight." It was then that Genesect landed with Blitzle and Sableye, with Diglett popping up next to them. Queen Chrysalis and many of her changelings also landed, and Sableye had to prevent Twilight from yelling at them.
"What are they doing here?" Twilight asked Sableye, glaring.
"They need to live too. Ponyville is where they can get enough love to survive, so they are helping." Sableye assured Twilight.
Keldeo transformed into its Resolute Form. "Here's the plan. Hit the bear hard enough and it gets pushed back. Hit it enough and hopefully it will leave."
Genesect turned to the Ursa and bent down, bracing its hands and feet into the ground. "Techno Blast ready. I will fire to hit at the same time you do."
Chatot nodded to Absol, who had managed to come back. "Good. All of us are to hit it with everything we can, preferably attacks that would push the Ursa back."
Blitzle looked to Ponyta. "I really want to be able to do that thing we did against Raichu now. Heck, I wish I even knew what that was."
"Isn't that the truth." Ponyta agreed.
What are your ideals?
Blitzle looked around wildly. "Who said that? I've heard you before, who or what are you?"
Bidoof poked Blitzle. "Are you okay? Ponyta was just agreeing with you."
Do you desire the truth?
Ponyta looked around too. "About what?"
Diglett looked at her. "Do you do this often?"
What is it that would be best?
Blitzle stopped looking around and took a deep breath. "It would be best if the Ursa would leave, by its accord or by us driving it off."
Strike it hard, Blitzle, and unleash my power.
Blitzle turned to the Ursa, and began sparking. "Rush it on my mark. Genesect, you and everyone else hit it with whatever power you can put behind a magic blast. Got it?" Keldeo, Lopunny, Victini, Absol, Ponyta, and Bidoof nodded. Genesect, Twilight, Chrysalis and the changelings all lined up and got ready to fire. "Ready? One, Two, THREE!" Blitzle was the only one who didn't run, as he knew he could catch up. He began running, and his Wild Charge was picking up electricity. He heard a bang, and he suddenly tripled in speed and his Wild Charge electricity snapped blue. He collided with the Ursa along with all the others, and then saw Techno Blast and all the magic bolts slam into the Ursa. It went backwards, roared, and then turned and lumbered back into the Everfree.
Keldeo shook its head. "We... We did it." Everyone sighed with relief or cheered.
"Alright. Now to figure out what you're doing." Twilight turned to Chrysalis, who attempted not to look bothered by the unicorn.
"My hive needs to feed, and I was helping protect our food source. Specifically, your town. You may not understand it, as you've always had food and other ponies to rely on, but I am the queen of the changelings, so it is my duty to make sure we get food. As our primary food source is impossible to come by in the wild, I needed to do what I could to assure our survival. As our appearance is off-putting, we wouldn't be accepted into society. Therefore, I had to seize a position where my hive could get sustenance. Our issue arose when you saw through my disguise, ruining my plan to feed my hive. Before and after then we have had to hope that we could survive off of what we could manage. This forest and your town have been mostly stable sources of food." Chrysalis explained, walking towards Twilight and pushing her back.
Meloetta looked confused. "How is your appearance off putting? You look fine to me. Hey, why didn't you ask someone for help? I was told that there were two nice princesses in the castle way over there, why don't you ask them? Too far to fly?"
Chrysalis rolled her eyes. "Yes, because going to the ponies in charge of the country I tried to force my way into is definitely not going to result in a bad idea."
"Why not have Twilight write her a letter saying that you come in peace and want to talk?" Ponyta asked. "It would be the best way, and I truthfully can't see an issue with it."
"I can. The disguise she mentioned was her pretending to be my brother's now wife and she was planning on taking over Equestria." Twilight said bluntly.
Chatot looked more than a little surprised and angry, but Bidoof talked over him. "That was the past. She wouldn't do that if she had a source of love."
Twilight glared at Bidoof. "What if she does it again? She's proven that she will, and I can't write to Princess Celestia and not be worried about-"
Blitzle coughed. She looked over, and saw Blitzle's rather angry face. "What if I steal everything in town worth money? I've proven I will, so why do you put up with me?"
Twilight was taken aback. "When would you have-"
"Thunderclap, remember?" Blitzle smirked.
Twilight sighed. "Alright. If you all are so sure it's a good idea, i'll go write the letter and send it out."
Chatot nodded. "Okay."
Blitzle headed towards the Everfree. "We're going to need wood for the campfire Friday. I'm going to go get some." He headed off, but didn't get into the forest before a blade sliced the ground in front of him. He looked at Keldeo. "Really? What is it?"
Keldeo walked next to him. "Talk. How did you do that?"
"No idea what you mean." Blitzle honestly answered.
"The Ursa. You hit it with a move that you cannot perform. How?"
"No clue. You said counter was a move you couldn't learn, so why is it that a move I can't is scary?"
Keldeo went in front of him. "Because you used a legendary Pokemon's signature move. Specifically, Zekrom's Bolt Strike. This is the second time you've done one of its moves, the first being against Raichu. That time, you used its Fusion Bolt, and Ponyta used Reshiram's Fusion Flare. How are you doing that? The only other Pokemon other than them that could do it are Arceus, Mew, and Victini."
"I told you. I do not know." Blitzle walked past Keldeo, leaving it behind to try and figure out what was going on with the Trailblazers.
