My Little Pokémon

Endless dynamic and power-driven energy, Electric

The 18 Realms.

The Black Holes were finally breaking through, going past just the other realms and meeting in one spot. Through each door, black rays were shooting out violently. The colourful ethereal appearance of the area was also being enveloped in total darkness. Albeit slowly.

Emerging out of the comically large Fairy Door was Celestia's group. Once they had arrived, they came across the expanding Black Holes and how the rays were shooting out of the doors.

"Oh no! Are we too late?!" Flurry Heart gasped before ducking her head from one of the incoming rays that beamed out of the many doors. They all stood together from all these directional rays that were flying all over the place.

"It's never too late," Celestia said. Cracks formed in the area with the darkness of the Black Hole leaking out. The shattered parts had been sucked in afterwards. "Quickly!" Celestia and the group then went for the Electric-Type door as fast as they could while rays were bursting out constantly.

They made sure to avoid all of the incoming Black Hole rays, ducking or flying over them. More holes appeared around the doors, damaging them repeatedly.

"Sister! Everyone! Wear these!" Luna still had some of the special metal that could counteract the Black Hole. "They can help you against the Black Hole!"

"These things?! How?!" Twilight asked before being given some of the metal that was fit for her stature. Including Starlight Glimmer. Though she wasn't aware of how these metals could fight back against a mighty and seemingly unstoppable force such as a Black Hole.

Just as they were all getting theirs, one of the rays managed to catch Flurry Heart, making contact with her hoof. "!" The young alicorn gasped as she was stopped in her tracks. "It's got me!" She cried out as more rays started grabbing her due to her being stuck.

"Flurry!" Shining Armor, Cadence and the others turned around, seeing her being caught and already receiving a great pullback from the gravity. However, as Darkrai was about to go and free her, surprisingly, something else did.

Or someone. Emanating a pulse of Antimatter from the Ultra Ball was none other than the Renegade Pokemon Giratina. That pulse of Antimatter flashed out in response to Flurry Heart's life being threatened. And to everyone's surprise, it had done more than just pushing the Black Hole away. It had erased it. Consuming the Black Hole rays in a flare of Antimatter, Giratina had sent it all over the place.

Everyone watched as all of the rays that flew out of the doors were being denied just by Giratina exuding out some Antimatter, all because Flurry Heart was in danger.

"Thanks, Tina!" Flurry Heart held the Ultra Ball out, thanking the Ghost-Dragon-Type.

"Did any of you know Giratina could do that?" Starlight asked.

"It's Antimatter. What can you do?" Twilight shrugged as there was no arguing about Giratina's laws. Considering it was a Pokemon related to Arceus, it was best to just go with it.

Thanks to Giratina's Antimatter dealing with the rays, they could pass through without an issue, approaching the Electric-Type door. What they were about to get themselves into through that door and into that realm far surpassed what was happening out here.

Electric Realm.

Gardevoir was against a mass number of Pokemon Trainers and Pokemon. But her form of assistance came in the form of the many Black Holes that originally came from the other realms, having horrifying rays and tendrils by her side. Most Trainers and Pokemon had the goal of avoiding them as possible while some of them only had the intention of stopping Gardevoir once and for all.

"Gar!" Cynthia's Garchomp currently used Swords Dance, meeting face to face with Gardevoir with a clash. Gardevoir had made a steel pillar to clash with Garchomp.

"Braviary, Brave Bird!" Rainbow Dash's voice could be heard as Gardevoir quickly pushed Garchomp away. She controlled the skies, causing an array of lightning bolts to come raining down. "We won't fall for the same trick twice! Steel Wing!"

"Viary!" While in Brave Bird, Braviary had also used Steel Wing, covering his wings in steel. He then allowed the lightning bolts to come crashing down as the metal from Steel Wing had conducted it, allowing Braviary to borrow its power.

"!" Gardevoir gasped at this sudden move combination, quickly thinking on her feet as always. She made a massive Ground Blockade around her body. It covered her from head to toe on all sides, making her look like a megalith.

"Braviary!" Braviary crashed into the blockade at full force with Brave Bird. Brave Bird failed as Braviary received recoil damage. However, he then followed up with Steel Wing, hitting the blockade once more. The electricity did nothing but the steel managed to chip some of it away.

Out of the blockade, Fairy rays could be seen radiating through the gaps. The rays then intensified in brightness, flashing in front of Braviary and blinding him for a moment. Gardevoir then grabbed Braviary by summoning a mass array of bugs from within the gaps, instantly wrapping around Braviary. "B-Bravi!" Braviary cried out before behind held by this violent swarm.

"Sceptile, Leaf Blade!"

"Scep...Tile!" In came Sceptile, saving Braviary by both knocking the bugs aside with ease and also slicing through Gardevoir's earth blockage, startling her.

"Now, Leavanny! String Shot!"

"Leavan!" All 12 of Rarity's Leavanny had sent Strings in Gardevoir's direction to try and restrain her. Gardevoir wouldn't allow the same thing to happen to her again. So, she protected herself with a Psychic aura while also causing a pillar of fire to erupt around her. She instantly incinerated the strings once they got close.

She then flew out of the pillar of fire, manipulating some of it before sending it towards the Leavanny. The 12 Leavanny had been struck and bombarded by the flames, taking colossal super-effective damage it. "V-Vanny!" They each cried out. 6 of Rarity's Leavanny had fainted while almost being carried away by the incoming Black Hole tendrils.

"Mosa!" Pheromosa came to their rescue, grabbing some of the Leavanny with her amazing speed, keeping them away from the tendrils. Gardevoir's eyes locked onto Pheromosa, manipulating the tendrils to chase after Pheromosa as she was having enough of this ludicrous speed.

"Salamence, use Hyper Beam! Haxorus, Giga Impact!" Spike commanded both of his Pokemon. Salamence opened his mouth whilst Haxorus, who had previously shifted from Axew into this form in a flash had leapt over his fellow Dragon-Type with an invisible aura around him. At the same time, Hyper Beam had been unleashed, flying alongside the trail of Giga Impact.

Gardevoir's response was to put herself in a Ghostly veil, making herself intangible for a brief moment. And it paid off as Haxorus phased right through her along with Hyper Beam. "X-Xorus?!" The Axe Jaw Pokemon gasped as Gardevoir then used Psychic to grab Haxorus while he was still midair. She then forced Haxorus into the path of Hyper Beam, causing him to take the attack instead. "Haxo!"

"Liquidation, Grapploct!" shouted Bea.

"Hariyama, Stone Edge!" So did Brawly.

"Hariyama!" Hariyama thrust its massive hands forward, sending crystallized stones. That prompted Grapploct to jump on them. The Tantrum Pokemon jumped from stone to stone, covering its appendages in water as well.

Gardevoir's response was to simply shift the gravity on them. And she did. With just a push of her arm, she quickly used her Psychic abilities to alter gravity, sending a reverse flow that caused the stones and Grapploct to fly in the other direction. "G-Grap?!"

"Hari!" Hariyama ended up being hit by its own stones with Grapploct also crashing into it. Brawly and Bea gasped as the two Pokemon then crashed into Brawly, causing him to fall over.

"Brawly!" Bea ran over to Brawly immediately.

"I-I'm fine..." Brawly groaned, giving a thumbs-up. Bea quickly grabbed his arm to help him up, only to receive the surprise of a Black Hole tendril that caught her. Bea was immediately pulled away from Brawly, flying through the air. "Bea?!"

Bea grunted as she knew all wasn't lost. Everyone had the special metal given to them by Princess Luna, Shining Armor, Darkrai and Aegislash after all. She quickly took pieces of it that was she was wearing, clanging them together to make a flashing light of great proportions. The light then blew away the tendril for a bit, freeing Bea as she was now free-falling.

"Kommo-o!" Saving her midair was one of the many Kommo-o that came to aid them. The Dragon-Fighting-Type had jumped a great distance, grabbing Bea. "Ko!"

"My thanks, Kommo-o!"

"Pikachu! Thunderbolt!"

"Luxray, Discharge!" Rainbow Dash also had her Luxray out. Just to give that extra edge of winning this confrontation. It wasn't just her and Ash throwing Electricity in Gardevoir's way. The CMC did the same with their Electric-Types plus Rarity's Ampharos.

"Pachirisu, Spark!" First came Scootaloo.

"Plusle! Minun! You use Discharge also!" Then came Sweetie Belle with two Electric-Types.

"Emolga, Electro Ball!" And then Apple Bloom with Rarity going last.

"Ampharos, use Thunder!"

"Pika...!" Pikachu and his fellow Electric-Types gathered up, utilizing the full extent of their electricity that they currently had. They even started causing a reaction to the electric landscape in the Electric Realm.

100,000 volts, two flares, a ball and a burst of electricity were let out with Pachirisu simply going up ahead, getting up close and personal. Gardevoir was ready to give her response to this unified Electric attack, only to be stopped promptly by a smaller force.

"Castform, Shockwave!" Rainbow Dash had one extra Electric-Type attack from the side.

"Cast...Form!" Castform came charging in, shooting out a smaller bolt that hit Gardevoir while she wasn't looking. The Embrace Pokemon had been caught off guard, promptly turning her attention to the Weather Pokemon. Castofmr let out a cheeky smile as the other Electric-Type attacks had connected.

"Oh!" She gasped before feeling all of those might volts rush through her body. All of those combined attacks were certainly enough to paralyze her immediately as the Psychic-Fairy-Type started jittering ferociously.

But amidst her shock, Gardevoir ended up absorbing some of the Aura within it. Since Ash gave a command along with Rainbow Dash, there was some potent Aura for her to take. Cynthia was the only one to notice this and how Gardevoir managed to do so even when being harmed. She was clearly adapting to harder scenarios by the minute.

"Garbodor! While she's wide open! Gunk Shot!" Roxie shouted while on Garbodor's back.

"Gar...BO!" Garbodor then shot out a massive blob of gunk that travelled past everyone else. Gardevoir wasn't having any of that, but being paralyzed by all of these attacks made her too slow to properly react. Thus, she had been hit by the gunk, taking super-effective damage in the process.

"Steeix, Gyro Ball! Croagunk, Poison Jab!" Brock said to both of his Pokemon. His ace Steelix and his always reliable Croagunk.

"Croa!" Croagunk jumped onto Steelix who started spinning its body around, approaching Gardevoir on the hill. Black Hole tendrils and rays came their way, only for Croagunk to deny them via swift swing of his Poison Jab, coupled with the light from the special metal. "Croagunk!"

"Steelix!" Steelix had then bashed Gardevoir when getting close, using the full force of Gyro Ball effectively and dealing super-effective damage once more. An already paralyzed Gardevoir was then staggered, allowing for Croagunk to land the next hit.

"Why you...!" Gardevoir roared with one eye staring at Croagunk. With that one eye, she managed to grab the Poison-Fighting-Type with a Psychic hold for just a moment. That spelt bad news for Croagunk most definitely.

"Swords Dance!"

"Garchomp!" In came Garchomp, quickly stopping Gardevoir's next action by flying faster than a jet plan as always. The Mach Pokemon lived up to her name, approaching at Mach speeds and swinging at the Embrace Pokemon, taking her attention and grip off of Croagunk. "Gar!"

"Croa!" That allowed Croagunk to finally land his hit. And he did. Right in the middle of the Psychic-Fairy-Type, Croagunk landed Poison Jab, causing Gardevoir's eyes to widen as she was rocketed down to the ground like a slingshot firing a stone at full finger strength.

She hit the ground, feeling an extra shock from the electric landscape. Everything calmed down for a bit. At least the Gardevoir part. There were still others not partaking in the battle and mostly trying to avoid the Black Holes.

"Quick! Before she heals herself again!" Bea shouted, remembering Gardevoir's healing capabilities with both Fairy and Grass magic.

"Understood! Swords Dance, once more Garchomp!"

"Gar! Garchomp...!" Garchomp's attack increased once more as she flew even faster than before, approaching the downed Embrace Pokemon. However, even with Garchomp's speed, Gardevoir still had time. The duration was shorter than they were expecting.

She managed to manipulate the electricity from below, altering them to form into massive icicles that erupted from below. All Gardevoir had to do was tap the ground and she could do something. Garchomp gasped upon seeing these icicles.

"Misgamius!" Fantina's Mismagius ended up coming to her rescue, grabbing the Mach Pokemon away from the massive icicles in time.

Gardevoir laughed before healing herself with the same Fairy and Grass Magic. However, even she knew that was reaching her limit. She was already using so much Aura and magic to try and recover from every devastating team attack that came her way.

"I can't keep this up for long..." Gardevoir grunted, getting on one knee. "There are far too many of them to keep up my healing..."

"We couldn't stop her from healing," said Cynthia. "But she seems to be slowing down some more. She's finally starting to reach her limit. If we can keep this up, victory will be ours."

"This victory will be mine!" Gardevoir exclaimed with a reply but slamming her hand onto the ground. This time, she switched things up. Her contact with the ground did not change its elemental properties again. Not this time. Instead, it went above something other than just elements.

She brought the force of the Black Hole underneath. Right below everyone, a rapid-moving darkness had approached, covering the land while still keeping it in the air. But the difference with the ground was that there was a larger restraint with it. More those tendrils came out along with strange black wires along with ribbons, chains and other things that could wrap and restrain.

Everyone gasped as they were taken aback by this switch up, having their hooves, legs, paws, appendages and any other limb that they might possess be caught by this massive array of Psionic manipulation.

Some of them managed to evade them just in time. But a majority couldn't. Their flashing and special metal armour managed to keep them on the ground without being dragged it, however, they all barely move.

"Are you all okay?!" Ash exclaimed, hoping no one had been dragged in. Thankfully, they were still up. But their bodies were entering a struggle with the Black Hole with only the special metal being able to keep them up without being dragged into the eternal darkness.

As for Gardevoir, she started ascending. Very soon, she had summoned a tree of Black Hole darkness that she stood upon. Surrounding this tree was a slew of all 18 Types, pulsating and radiating out of the tree with their respective colours.

She stood atop it with visible tatters, showing that her healing abilities were coming to an end. However, with fewer trainers being free to attack plus Gardevoir slowly starting to better handle team attacks, she had confidence that she could win without needing to heal once more.

"This is getting out of hand! I guess it's time to Mega-" Brock was ready to kick in Mega Evolution as soon as he could.

"No!" Cynthia stopped Brock. "Do that and Gardevoir's chances of gaining more power skyrocket! We can't risk it! That involves Z-Moves! Even when she's being attacked, it still gives her the chance. I saw it earlier."

"So you noticed?" Gardevoir spoke. "Thanks to Applejack's Aura, everything's increased. Including my reflexes. It almost feels like I can see a bit into the future with it. I can absorb the Aura from your attacks as well and anything else.

"It's fine!" Ash bellowed. "We can beat you without Mega Evolution or Z-Moves!"

"Then come!" Gardevoir cackled with ferocious lightning bolts surrounding her as there was also the sound of thunder added onto the howling of the Black Hole.

But as she laughed, she felt something else coming her way. Being faster than before, Gardevoir had put up a Psychic shield, defending herself from an incoming Dark Void.

That came from Darkrai. And with Darkrai was Princess Celestia and everyone else, finally arriving at the scene and not too late. They were on time to see the multiplication of Black Holes from above and below, restraining everybody vigorously while also spotting the Black Hole Tree made by Gardevoir.

"You!" Gardevoir growled at them, making a hard turn in their direction.

"This is as far as you go, Gardevoir!" Celestia spoke whilst flying next to Passion. The moment she said that, black threads appeared from the Black Holes in the sky, getting ready to ferociously wrap around the newcomers.

"Aegislash, Sacred Sword!" Shining Armor commanded.

"Aegis!" Aegislash swung his bladed body as hard as he could, cutting the threads in half.

"Ash! Are you alright?! Did she touch you?!" Delia ran over to her son, holding his face. "IF she did, she's going to pay dearly!"

"I-I'm fine, mom. Still in one piece and untouched too." Ash stammered. "I'm glad you're okay too. All of you."

"Have you figured out a way to stop her yet?!" Celestia asked, appearing next to Ash and the others.

"The only way to stop her is making sure to she doesn't heal. But she does it so fast it's troublesome." Cynthia replied. "However, she's starting to wain. One more overwhelming attack on her and her healing capabilities will drop drastically."

"Yet you can't do it without your precious Mega Evolution or anything that just screams high Aura, can you?" Gardevoir replied. "A smart decision. That'll only get me back up to speed. And these Black Holes aren't slowing down for anything."

"Not without Aura Sphere." Cynthia shook her head. "It's one of the few things aside from that metal Princess Luna brought to us that can push back the Black Hole. Twilight. You have a Togekiss. Please use it."

"R-Right." Twilight quickly went into her saddlebag, but another idea sprung up in her mind. She would still use Togekiss, but there was a better alternative. "Or maybe we can do more than just push it back! Giratina's Antimatter can destroy them!"

"It can?!" Ash and a few others said in unison.

"Oh yeah!" Flurry Heart just remembered this as well. And considering there was a disgusting amount of Black Holes, the perfect counter to this would be a Pokemon that can summon a disgusting amount of Antimatter. By using her magic to launch the Ultra Ball, out into the fray came the Renegade Pokemon.

Giratina.

"Giratina?!" Gardevoir gasped as even she wasn't expecting Giratina to appear. The Renegade Pokemon's appearance immediately meant that Antimatter was ready to fill the air. And some particles were already appearing, spreading across the tendrils and restraints that held everyone else down. Meanwhile, Twilight had sent out her Togekiss for that extra Aura Sphere assistance.

"This is getting out of hand fast..." Gardevoir grimaced. Giratina just added to that pressure. Visible signs of panic had shown on her face. She then looked at her surroundings to quickly improvise. The only thing that was there were the lightning bolt mountains. Running low on options, Gardevoir had her pick. "Fine! I'll do something different for once!"

"Huh?" Ash sounded confused from that before seeing Gardevoir's hand move. From below with a startling sound, the lightning bolt pillars had been ripped out of the ground from Gardevoir's Psychic, telekinetically grabbing them. The lightning bolts then flew rapidly, almost hitting the others.

Ash and a few others ducked from the incoming lightning bolts. But Gardevoir wasn't using them to attack. Instead, she was bringing them over to her. Soon, the massive lightning mountains surrounding Gardevoir, only adding to her giant Black Hole tree and much more.

But she did more than just add it, she started absorbing the electricity from the lightning mountains for herself. Her eyes and mouth were already releasing spurts of electricity. "Oh! This is better than I thought!" Gardevoir exclaimed. "Electricity is a wonderful substitute! It's not Aura but it certainly helps!"

"Electricity..." Ash gasped before gaining an idea from Gardevoir's idea. The best way to defeat Gardevoir is with one more overwhelming attack without using too much Aura. And that would come from electricity. "That's it! We'll use that, Pikachu! All of that electricity!"

"Pikachu!"

"Come and get it then!" Gardevoir accepted their challenge.

"Pikachu, Quick Attack! Lucario, Force Palm!"

"PIka!" Pikachu went first ahead of everyone else, moving at blinding speeds and leaving afterimages behind whilst having a white trail around him. Lucario followed his teammate promptly. Some tendrils were already sneaking up on Ash, prompting him to go with his partner.

"Ah, I see your approach! Everyone! Help Pikachu get all that electricity!" Celestia ordered as they all started moving along as well. "Passion, use Thunderbolt!"

"Garde...Voir!" Passion put her hands together, summoning 100,000 volts that were quickly used on a Black Hole Ray. The ray had been pushed back along with another one by Celestia which had almost snuck up on Passion.

"Eve! Dazzling Gleam! Togekiss, Aura Sphere!"

"Espeon!" Espeon hopped over a vine of Black Holes before giving herself a sphere of rainbows. She had also landed on Togekiss back, being swooped up. Both of them released their attacks in the form of rainbow rays.

The rainbow rays battered the darkness of the Black Hole rays, entering a brief struggle that was back and forth, only for Togekiss to put an end to it with Aura Sphere, making Dazzling Gleam the victor.

"Garchomp, Dragon Claw!" Cynthia said whilst on Garchomp's back. "Lucario, Meteor Mash!"

"Gar!" Garchomp roared, slashing apart the restraints that tried to hold her and Cynthia down with consecutive Dragon Claws. And thanks to Swords Dance, they were extra strong.

"Lu!" Cynthia's Lucario passed Garchomp for a brief moment, hitting the rays away with the force of a meteor around them. However, an overwhelming amount of Fire whirlwinds appeared out of thin air by a flash of Gardevoir's eyes right after the restraints were dealt with. Lucario had then been held and slammed down to the ground by these restraints. "C-Ca!"

"Lucario!" Cynthia gasped before suddenly feeling a turn. That was from Garchomp who managed to make a hard zoom to the right with a quick evasion from an Ice ray.

The rays then quickly turned into ic chains, wrapping around Garchomp and Cynthia, stopping them in place. A horrible chill was already passing through Garchomp that made her very vulnerable.

"Cynthia! Garchomp!" Ash turned around.

"Go, Ash!" Cynthia groaned. "Don't worry about us!"

"Darkrai! Dark Pulse!" Luna exclaimed whilst flying alongside her partner. She and Darkrai seemed surrounded on all sides, only to get rid of their threats promptly with a flash of magic and a pulse imbued with dark thoughts.

The two of them were instantly attacked by more of them, getting no time to rest. Luna's hoves and Darkrai's claws were grabbed by them promptly when pushing back at the previous ones, leaving them vulnerable for a split second.

"Giratina! Iron Head!" Flurry Heart commanded on Giratina's head. The Renegade Pokemon promptly smashed its head onto a Black Hole, crushing it into pieces with brute force alone. The Renegade Pokemon had then freed Luna and Darkrai by charging through the Black Holes with Iron Head.

And by the minute, Gardevoir's energy was rising thanks to the lighting mountains. She was even starting to heal herself whilst everyone had these obstacles to challenge.

"Let's see if she's still fast!" Rarity said whilst on Pheromosa's back. "Pheromosa, Triple Kick if you please!"

"Mosa!" Pheromosa ran past everyone else with her superior speed, even surpassing Garchomp. With pure speed and pure power, she broke through some of the obstacles while also approaching Gardevoir.

A steel wall emerged from below, almost catching Pheromosa. The Lissome Pokemon barely managed to move away from it, only to have a wall of fire be summoned behind her. "Look out!" Rarity cried out as she would possibly be the first to be caught in the flames from behind.

"Aerial Ace!"

"Braviary!" In came Braviary, using Aerial Ace to save both Rarity and Pheromosa with Rainbow Dash on his back.

"Oh! Many thanks, Rainbow Dash!" said Rarity with a great sigh. She was almost charred if there was another second. However, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and their Pokemon were then stopped in place by a reverse gravitational force that kept them from advancing.

It slowed them down promptly, allowing for some restraints to come out of their way and grab them. Their Pokemon managed to escape for a moment, only to be whacked aside afterwards. But the trainers were still stuck.

"Dash! Rarity!" Ash gasped looked up to see his friends being restrained.

"Nevermind us, Ash! You and Pikachu keep going!" Rarity exclaimed before having her mouth blocked off from speaking.

"Okay! Lucario, Aura Sphere! Pikachu, Thunderbolt"

"Lu!" Lucario snarled, putting his hands together to form a larger Aura Sphere than usual. Pikachu then added to that power by shooting it with Thunderbolt. "Cario!" Lucario then tossed the Thunder Aura Sphere, obliterating parts of the Black Hole Tree with it.

So did Giratina, using brute force mostly to do so, ramming its body through the tree and its attacks. Giratina was also a Pokemon that was immune to Black Holes from how it was casually moving through them. It was also spreading Antimatter along the way.

"Dragon Pulse!" All at once, Spike and Applejack had commanded Salamence and Sceptile. Out of their mouths, draconic shockwaves shaped like a dragon had barged through some of the darkness, clearing a path some more for Ash, Pikachu and Lucario.

"Now, Haxorus! Close Combat!"

"Haxo!" Haxorus then grabbed some of the tendrils with his bare hands before ripping them apart, using his tail to knock some of them that would sneak up from behind. However, more just kept coming, eventually surrounding Haxorus and pinning him down.

"Haxor-" Spike was cut off once Salamence ducked from an incoming ice ray, only to be then caught off guard by a massive swarm of rocks that started battering him. Spike closed his eyes, holding on tight as Salamence was sent flying through the air whilst being pushed by the constant assault of rocks.

"Thunderbolt!" Ash, Celestia and Luna both said.

"Pika...Chuuu!" Pikachu, Passion and Darkrai each released a trifecta of electricity, merging to make 300,000 votes maximum, blowing away at a large wave of water that was sent their way.

"Almost there!" Ash said. "Pikachu, use Quick Attack! Lucario, Aura Sphere and Double Team!"

"Eve! You use Quick Attack also! Togekiss, use Aura Sphere too!"

In unison, Pikachu and Espeon had blitzed across the tree with lightning speeds while Lucario and Togekiss fended off the Black Hole from touching their friends with collective spheres of Aura.

"Gardevoir...!" Passion appeared in front of her fellow Gardevoir via some natural teleportation, attempting to grab the Shiny Gardevoir.

"I think not!" Gardevoir quickly stopped her as they both interlocked hands. They entered a brief struggle with their Psychic auras starting to show. "Foolish girl! You left yourself vulnerable to me!" Gardevoir chuckled as she was starting to draw some of Passion's Aura for herself.

"Garde?!"

"You're still young to know any better so I don't blame you!" Gardevoir then kicked her fellow Gardevoir aside, sending Passion flying through the air.

"Passion, Plasma Bolt!" Celestia shouted from below.

"Garde...!" Passion quickly recovered, merging Mystical Fire and Thunderbolt, using her amazing power to make Plasma. Even the opposing Gardevoir was taken aback by this.

"Plasma?!" She gasped.

"Voir!" Passion then unleashed Plasma Bolt onto Gardevoir, catching her off guard for a second. But she was certainly quicker than before, making a steel wall. The steel had then conducted some of the electricity from the Plasma Bolt, allowing for Gardevoir to promptly borrow it. She lowered the steel wall before appearing with a fierce grin, holding the Plasma in her hand. "Gardevoir?!"

"Thank you!" Gardevoir thanked Passion before throwing Plasma Bolt at her. But that was swiftly denied by an incoming Giratina who had taken the hit for Passion. "Accursed Dragon-Types...!" Gardevoir growled.

"Let her have it, Giratina! Shadow Force!"

Giratina had then vanished out of thin air for a moment with Flurry Heart involved. Gardevoir gasped, keeping her eyes and ears alert. She then used the Aura to try and sense Giratina's presence, moving around in every direction. When Giratina was ready to pop out, Gardevoir sensed her.

"Found you!" She said as Giratina appeared back into thin air, ready to tackle Gardevoir. Gardevoir covered herself in Fairy Magic, however, becoming a Fairy Shield for a moment. Giratina crashed into her, only taking the magic instead of successfully landing Shadow Force.

"Sylveon, Moonblast!" Cadence shouted.

"Sylveon!" Sylveon quickly hopped over Giratina who was a bit staggered. The Intertwining Pokemon greeted Gardevoir by gifting her the power of the moon in the form of a ball. Gardevoir quickly put her arms up to block the Moonblast. The pink smoke cleared as Garedvoir wiped it away while also using Psychic to toss Giratina and Sylveon aside. That went for Cadence and Flurry Heart. "S-Syl!"

They went downwards, passing Ash and the others along the way. "Guys!" Ash cried out.

"Don't waste time looking back, Ash! Run!" Cadence cried out with her voice fading in the background. Ash kept running under Cadence's wishes.

And thankfully, they were close this time. Ash, Twilight and their Pokemon stopped at the summit of the horrifying and amalgamated landscape, staring at Gardevoir up ahead.

"She's right there but there's still so much we have to go through!" Twilight groaned.

"We'll open a path for you guys!" Brock had shown up along with Mayor Mare and Aria who had also been climbing up here this entire time.

"We're counting on you to feed Pikachu all of that electricity at once!" Mayor Mare exclaimed, running with Brock and Aria.

"Leave this to us!" Aria ran past Ash, putting an end to the conversation.

"Steelix, Stone Edge!"

"Stoutland, Giga Impact!"

"Brionne, Hydro Pump!"

"Steelix!" Steelix, Stoutland and Brionne set off to clear that path for Ash and Twilight. It started with a cluster of crystal rocks being summoned by Steelix with a tail slam as Stoutland moved ahead with a trail of water from Brionne backing him up.

"Stout!" Stoutland bashed through the dark vines while the crystals from Stone Edge pierced through them. Brionne's Hydro Pump drowned them out.

All three of them were promptly met with quick retaliation from below. Massive roots burst from below with a swarm of bugs as well. Their bodies were being bombarded by these bugs immediately, throwing them off focus while also being held down by the roots.

Arriving up to this level were Sunset Shimmer and Starlight, quickly coming to their friends' aid after all the previous obstacles had been dealt with.

"Hatterene, Psycho Cut!"

"Braixen, Fire Spin!"

"Hatt!" Saving them from their restraints was Hatterene and Braixen with Fire Spin and Psycho Cut, cutting the roots and burning the swarm away.

But they soon received the same treatment, feeling a gravitational pressure emerge, gaining a heavy weight that formed them both down.

"Sunset! Starlight!" Twilight gasped, seeing her friends being pressured on the ground, struggling to stay up.

"It's fine, Twilight!" Starlight strained.

"P-Please, keep going!" Sunset stammered whilst holding onto Braixen. Ash and Twilight continued on their way with one final obstacle standing before them. Or rather above them.

That came in the form of a massive Black Hole claw that overshadowed everything else. They looked up to see it hovering over them. They kept running but they could not take their eyes off of them.

Luckily, a ray of golden magic imbued with Fairy Magic had forced it back for a moment. They looked to the side to see that it was Celestial-Gardevoir. She had used Mega Evolution and the Bond Phenomenon either way, not caring about the risk.

And assisting her was Cynthia's Garchomp who had broken free from her restraints, using Swords Dance to slice one half of the claw apart.

"You used it, Princess Celestia?!" Twilight gasped.

"Whatever it takes to help my friends! Who cares if she absorbed some of it?!" Celestial-Gardvoir replied before seeing the claw come her way. She grabbed parts of the claw, entering a struggle with it. Garchomp also grabbed it, only for her, Cynthia and Celestial-Gardevoir to be taken by surprise from a second one. "You all! Keep moving forward!" Celestial-Gardevoir was then raised into the air.

"You cannot lose here! We're entrusting the fate of tomorrow to you all!" Cynthia shouted while being carried around by the claws.

Thanks to the distraction made by Cynthia and Celestial-Gardevoir, Ash and Twilight finally reached their destination. There, they stood before Gardevoir.

Gardevoir scoffed before standing up tall, facing the two of them and their partners. She could only applaud, congratulating them on how far they've made it. "You all are truly something, aren't you?"

"Pika...!" Pikachu's red sacs were flaring at Gardevoir.

"Then again...I expect no less from the Trainer and Pokemon that Ho-oh chose." Her smile then turned into a frown. One of jealousy and disdain. "It's not fair...!" Out of jealousy, Gardevoir's emotions being tied to her power showed once more with Psychic tremors. "Why did Ho-oh choose you two! And not me! My quest for immortality has led up to this because of that accursed Rainbow Pokemon!"

"It's not Ho-oh's fault, you weren't chosen," Twilight argued back as Gardevoir turned to her. "I saw what happened back at the Fairy Realm. The memories we saw. You were just afraid of ending up like those you loved. But you never accepted having the same fate many others do."

"And what would you know?!" Gardevoir roared. "You're an alicorn Arguably, your lifespan is prolonged to a disgusting degree as well! I hate mortality. I absolutely fear it! I don't plan on going through something like that! Something as horrible as that kind of fate!"

"That's just part of life!" Ash shouted. "It's tough but you can't let it get the best of you. It's gonna stick with you forever if you do."

Just then, the words that Ash spoke reminded Gardevoir of a moment back in her past. The same moment that Twilight saw when within the Fairy Realm. The words that the lady said to Gardevoir when she was a Ralts after witnessing the loss of loved ones once more.

"As long as you do not let it get the best of you and linger forever, then you can live a prosperous life, knowing about the difficulties that come with it and becoming stronger."

"I don't want to hear that from you...YOU IMMORTAL BRAT!" Gardevoir rejected Ash's words immediately, raising her voice. Ash and Twilight were not intimidated at all. "I'm going to bury you in the eternal darkness of the Black Hole and have your endless Aura for myself!" Finally having enough, Gardevoir approached Ash and Twilight.

"Here she comes! Pikachu, use Quick Attack!"

"Eve, you use Quick Attack too!"

"Pikachu!" Pikachu and Espeon both approached the Embrace Pokemon. The two of them then butted heads with Gardevoir, creating a brief shockwave. They managed to push each other back a bit, staggering together.

"Iron Tail and Aura Sphere!"

"Shadow Ball and Sky Attack!"

"Pika!" Pikachu slid on the ground before running back at Gardevoir with a hardened tail. Assisting him was Togekiss who coated herself in a radiant golden aura. Backing them up from behind were Lucario and Espeon, charging up an Aura Sphere and Shadow Ball.

Gardevoir made a blockade of glowing rocks to try and defend herself, throwing them at the group. Pikachu smashed the rocks apart with his tail whilst Togekiss, who was the most vulnerable to rocks, started manoeuvring her way through the array of rocks.

"Togekiss!" Togekiss made a Hail Arceus attempt, barging through the rest of the rocks to risk some damage as she smashed into Gardevoir. Pikachu followed suit, jumping from rock to rock and hitting Gardevoir in the head with Iron Tail.

"Chu...Pika!"

"G-G...!" Gardevoir stuttered as she almost said her species name from how hard the hit was. She then grabbed both of them with Psychic, bringing them close to her. She gave the two Pokemon a menacing grin, showing how over the edge she was being pushed at.

"Rrr!"

"Espeon!" But quickly saving them were Lucario and Espeon with Aura Sphere and Shadow Ball. Gardevoir gasped as she was struck by the sphere and blob, dropping Pikachu and Togekiss whilst being hurled away. The Embrace Pokemon then crashed into the walls of the tree.

"Dazzling Gleam, both of you!"

"Lucario, Force Palm! Iron Tail, again!"

"Rrr!" Lucario and Pikachu approached Gardevoir while multiple rays of rainbows flew alongside them. Courtesy of Espeon and Togekiss. The rays had hit Gardevoir while she was still on the wall.

Following up were Pikachu and Lucario, jumping into the air. Both struck Gardevoir from the side right after she had been battered by Dazzling Gleam. With further signs of desperation, Gardevoir had then made roots pop up, grabbing Pikachu and Lucario. The two of them had been slammed against each other and then soon tossed into the air.

"Pi-Pika!"

"L-Lu!"

"You two!" She turned her attention to Espeon and Togekiss, appearing in front of them via teleportation. Espeon with her ability to predict her opponent's movements at times tackled Togekiss out of the way, saving them both for Gardevoir's summoning of roots that came diving down.

"Head for the lightning bolts, buddy! Lucario throw him!"

"Lu!" Lucario nodded before grabbing Pikachu whilst still in the air. Pikachu braced himself as the Aura Pokemon started spinning him around whilst free-falling. "Lu..ca!"

"Pika!"

"No, you don't!" Gardevoir quickly flew over to Pikachu, doing what she could to stop him.

"Makeshift Volt Tackle!"

"Pikachu!" Pikachu combined two moves into one. He first zapped himself with Thunderbolt while also using the speed of Quick Attack around his body. "PIka-Pika-Pika!"

"What the-" Unaware of Ash's bizarre strategies, Gardevoir was taken back as Pikachu crashed right into her with a temporary Volt Tackle. And one that did not cause recoil.

And staying on focus, Pikachu had crash-landed with Gardevoir near the lightning mountains. Right as they crashed, Pikachu immediately started running to the lightning bolts. But recovering just as quickly as he was Gardevoir who had grabbed his tail. "Pika?!"

"Gotcha!"

"Double Team and Force Palm!"

"Sky Attack and Quick Attack!" But coming to Pikachu's rescue were Lucario who had multiplied himself, Togekiss and Espeon. The Embrace Pokemon gasped before having all of them crash right into her, forcing her away from Pikachu.

"Pika!" Pikachu, now free, went for the bolts as the trio of Pokemon were dragging Gardevoir across the ground, making sure she didn't get a second to break free. Pikachu placed his hands on the mountains, allowing the feeding to begin.

Pikachu closed his eyes as the electricity started flowing into him. All of them were holding so many volts that far surpassed his 100,000 volts of Thunderbolt. Pikachu's body and fur even started trembling from how much he was gathering from it. His eyes opened, flaring out lightning while also making the sound of thunder.

"Get off!" Gardevoir still managed to break free by making a pulse of magic around her body, blowing the trio of Pokemon away and giving herself some free space. The Embrace Pokemon was feeling exhausted, however. This entire scuffle was draining her quickly. "I can't and won't l-"

This time, she was the one who had been cut off. And that came from the sound of thunder. Turning to the other side, that came from only one source. Pikachu. That quickly, he had drawn in all the electricity he needed. Gardevoir was aghast at not only how fast Pikachu absorbed them but how fearsome he looked.

With an overwhelming aura of electricity, Pikachu's eyes started glowing within it as his body was now a mere silhouette at this point. He had reached his peak so far. "Pikachu...!"

"Awesome...!" Ash couldn't help but gawk at this sight.

"I didn't think he'd turn out like that!" Twilight blinked a few times.

"Pi...Ka...Chu...!" Pikachu's voice also had an echo behind it. He started moving forward as his mere footsteps were burning up the landscape. The lightning had reached an unbridled heat due to naturally being hotter than the surface of the sun.

But Pikachu also made mild tremors too whilst moving with this massive aura of electricity. Gardevoir was genuinely terrified of this as she stood up.

"This isn't the end...I can't let it be the end!" Gardevoir breathed in and out, holding out a Black Hole in her hand.

"Use Thunderbolt!"

"Pi....!" Pikachu took a running position before taking off like a rocket, leaving a massive burst of electricity from his takeoff as it almost pushed Ash and the others back. "KA!"

"I won't-" But she had then been interrupted again by a newcomer. Someone who also had a grudge against her. A giant flow of Aura came flying out of the atmosphere, wrapping around Gardevoir. "What?! I can't move!"

"LUCARIO!" Giga Lucario was responsible for this, using her Aura to hold Gardevoir in place from doing anything else. All the while, Pikachu approached, pumping into the air and curling up. But even when restrained, Gardevoir could still use her Black Hole, getting ready to unleash it.

"Pikachu!" Ash shouted.

"Stop her!" Twilight also shouted as soon as everyone did the same.

"DO IT!" Everyone from below and across the area roared, encouraging Pikachu to give it his al. And he did.

"PIKA...CHUUU!" With all of the lightning he had gathered, Pikachu unleashed his greatest Thunderbolt to date. Only rivalled by his signature Z-Move. Emerging out with a flash of multiple colours, the Thunderbolt came jetting downwards, blowing away parts of the Black Hole with its overwhelming light.

Gardevoir put her hand out, aiming to absorb it all with her Black Hole. But that was not the case. The electricity was so aggressive and unrelenting that once it struck the Black Hole, erasing it entirely. It was at that moment that Gardevoir knew that it was all over as she could say only one word to this.

"Oh."

Afterwards, she received a smite from Pikachu with all the electricity punishing her. From near and far, the sight of a titanic and jaw-dropping thunderbolt could be seen. It expanded to a degree so grand that it ended up even piercing the skies of the Black Hole, separating them. The electricity overloaded the Black Hole with unprecedented light, destroying all 17 of them entirely.

The clear blue skies of the realm had been shown as the sun broke through, showing its beautiful lights to all around them as the Thunderbolt came to an end with Gardevoir's eyes whiting out, signalling her defeat.

Pikachu then descended to the ground, sticking a stylish superhero-like landing. "Pika...Pi..." He breathed in and out with his body smoking. All of that gathered electricity in his body had ended.

It was all over.

The Black Hole Tree and everything Black Hole related came to an end, fading away. Ash, Pikachu and Espeon started freefalling, only to be saved by Twilight's magic and Togekiss.

Gardevoir also started falling with no one there to catch her he was unconscious all the way through. But someone did catch her. Delia. Deia held her hands out, quickly catching the Embrace Pokemon and preventing a horrifying end.

"Poor thing..." Even after she tried to absorb her son's Aura, Delia still felt sympathy for Gardevoir. After it all ended, the Electric Realm was also fading out. But it wasn't going away so to say. It was something else. Due to this fade, the 18 Realms had been shown, still in one piece.

Then, everyone's bodies started getting out blue Aura particles. This meant only one thing. They were now leaving as most of them recognized this.

"Guess it's time for us to leave here," Ash said, looking at his hands.

"Pikachu..."

"Gardevoir!" Fluttershy came running over to Gardevoir who was still being held by Delia. Gardevoir twitched as she looked up to see Delia and Fluttershy staring at her. "Audi. Use Heal Pulse."

"Audino." Audino nodded before placing her hands over Gardevoir.

"Curse it all..."Gardevoir groaned as she was being healed but not at the same pace as her Fairy and Grass magic. "I can't believe this...T-This isn't over...My quest for immortality has yet to end."

"You don't have to do this, Gardevoir." Fluttershy held Gardevoir's hand. "You're heading back to reality now. You'll be free. You can live a happy life again out there."

"Fluttershy is right." Celestia descended. "While we cannot condone what you have done, we cannot allow you to go through something like that again. Not from what we saw in your past. We now have access to this realm at any time. You can choose to live your life freely or we can do this same song and dance again when we return."

"Kh..." Gardevoir scoffed. "I choose the Aura. No matter what...I will have immortality. And no one will stop me from reaching that goal." Those were Gardevoir's last words before finally returning to reality, fading away.

"Oh Gardevoir..." Fluttershy sighed before Delia patted her on the head.

"It's fine. I still have high hopes for her," said Delia.

"Huh? Hey, look!" Adagio noticed something ahead. Right above the rest of the doors. Everyone stoon turned to face it. There was a 19th door floating there. "There's another one!"

"Another door?!" Twilight gasped along with many others. "Was that always there?!"

"Not sure...what type is that by the way?" Luna squinted, using her magic to enhance her vision. She then saw what was on the door as it wasn't anything she recognized. "Three question marks? What?"

"That's no type I'm familiar with..." Cynthia shook her head. Everyone then looked at each other before deciding on one thing. "Maybe another time."

Everyone just wanted to go home at this point. They were curious about what could be behind that one final door with an unknown type, but they were too tired to find out.

"This was a fun experience," Brawly commented. "Guess this means that even the Lucario get to pass on. Even that Giga Lucario. Like the name I gave it?"

"Hm. It's decent." Bea shrugged.

"Same to all of you." Spike turned to the many Kommo-o. "Hope we can meet again somewhere in the Pokemon World."

"Kommo-o!"

"What an amazing story to tell!" Fantina applauded. "Bravo to all of us! How about we do something related to this back at the Pokemon School when you all show up?"

"I was thinking the same thing." Roxanne walked over.

"I say we write a song about it!" Roxie appeared in front of both of them. "It would be awesome!"

"I'm heading back to the human world now. But I'd love to see that." Sunset Shimmer chimed in with an approving nod.

"Yeah." Ash smiled before looking up at the sky with the sun shining on everyone. "That would be awesome." His last words in this realm before everyone faded back into reality.

But the last thing they saw was Lucario turning to face the visage of her original trainer. It was time for her to go as well. Back to him on the other side beyond the earth. They then saw the other Ethereal Lucario fly into the azure skies with the Aura visage of their trainers appearing. The defeat of Gardevoir is what led to this. "LUCARIO!" Lucario jumped into the air, waving good to them all.

"Goodbye, Lucario!" Ash and everyone waved back. They were glad to see Lucario, all of them find peace as well, reuniting with their Aura Guardians.

It was all said and done at last.

As the journey continues.

Chapter 659 End.

He wasn't there when they all showed up for the first time.

[GamePlayer64]

11131863
No, he did appear. He appeared in the Ghost Type Realm.

[Amarvax]

11131867
Oh yeah. I was thinking of the Dark Realm and how I could've put him there.

[Zeprto678]

She brought the force of the Black Hoe underneath. Right below everyone, a rapid-moving darkness had approached, covering the land while still keeping it in the air. But the difference with the ground was that there was a larger restraint with it. More those tendrils came out along with strange black wires along with ribbons, chains and other things that could wrap and restrain.

You misspelled "hole" again.

[Zeprto678]

Afterwards, she received a smite from Pikachu with all the electricity punishing her. From near and far, the sight of a titanic and jaw-dropping thunderbolt could be seen. It expanded to a degree so grand that it ended up even piercing the skies of the Black Hole, separating them.

"Smile", not "smite".

[Amarvax]

11131951
Many thanks.

[Amarvax]

11131952
Smite is a way of saying striking someone down with lightning. Like what Zeus does.

[Zeprto678]

11131959
Oh. K.

[Julius]

man. this Gardevoir is certainly head strong in her objective

[Kauetheadventurer246]

As if. You heard it yourself, she still wishes to gain immortality no matter the cost by harvesting aura. Honestly, it really was foolish of them to try and help her instead of letting her meet her end.
